Around the
Police Station

A series of accidents followed the
sudden snorting-up of steam roller
which was being used on King street
between Bethel street and Nuuanu ave-
rue Yesterday afternoon shortly before
3 o'clock. Two rollers were at work
when a hack, drawn by spirited horse
snd driven by a Chinese jehu came
along. Just as the horse came opposite
one of the rollers, the engineer started
the machine off, and that started the
horse. He leaped and plunged and fin,
ally broke away from the driver. The
hack struck one of the big county road
wagons where the horse and hack part
ed company, resulting in the driver
bruising him.
The horse, freed from the rig, ran
wildly along King street until almost
opposite the Opera House where it ran
into an old white man named GustaV
Naumann, who was trundling wheel
barrow filed with gunnysacks contain
ing odds and ends the man had picked
I'D around town. Naumann was knock
ed several feet along the street, over
his barrow, and was picked up by
passersby from the sidewalk. He was
placed in a hack and sent posthaste to
the Queen s Hospital where his in
Juries were found to include fractur- |
ed eollarbone, fractured leg and a
body generally shaken up. The patrol
wagon responded to a call for help, but
on arrival at Palace Square, found the |
injured man had been taken away.
The horse was cut on both fore knees
and over the right eye.

Penalty insufficient.

The police find that the Curfew Act
is not sufficient to punish youthful
offenders who seem to do nothing but
violate the law. The law permits a
Judge to fine an offender under this
law not more than So or to imprison
him more than ten days at the Reform
School. The expense of taking boy
down to the Reform School for ten
days is considerable, as an officer has
TO accompany him there. In ten days
his passage back to town has to be
provided for. AS a general thing in
eorrigible youths are sent to the Re.
form School under the law providing
for "idle and dissolute lives.''
There are two boys who will appear
before the judge today who stand a
good chance of going down to Wa1alee.
They are Louis Rodrigues aged nine
years, and George Kaai, aged eleven
years, who are accused of pnrloining
milk and bread from Makiki homes
during the small hours of the morning
Shortly after midnight yesterday morn
ing they were taken in hand by Of
iicer Howell of the "Flying Bicycle
Squadron. Both boys have been ar
rested before and about two months
ago were released on probation.

introduction by Peary.

Some of my reasons for saying that Dr. Cook did not go to the North Pole will be understood by those who read the following statements of the two Eskimo boys who went with him, and who told me and others of my party where he did go. Several Eskimos who S arted with Dr. Cook from Amor atok in February, 1908, were at Etah when arrived there Tn August 1908. They told me that Dr. Cook had with him. after they left, two Eskimo boys or young men, two sledges and some twenty dogs. The boys were I-tooka' shoo and Ah-pelah had known them from their childhood. One was about IS and the other about 19 years of age.
 On my return from Cape Sheridan and at the very first settlement l touched tNerke, near Cape Chalon) in August, 1909, and nine days before reaching Etah, the Eskimos told me, in a general way, where Dr. Cook had been: that he had wintered in Jones Sound and that he had told the white men at Etah that he had been a long way north. but that the boys who were with him. Itookashoo and Ahpe. lah. said that this was not SO The Eskimos laughed al Dr. Cooks story. On reaching Etah talked with the Eskmos there and with the two boys and asked them to describe Dr- Cooks journey to members of my party and myself. This they did in the manner stated below. R. E.

Signed Statement of Pesry, Bartlett, McMilan, 8orup and Henson in Re- gard to Testimony of Cooks Two Eskimo Boys.

Eskimo boys.
 The two Eskimo boys, Itookashoo and Ahpelah. who accompanied pr. Cook while he was away from Anora sok in 1908 and 1909, were questioned separately and independently, and were corroborated by PanilSpah, the father of one fthem tltookashoo), who was personally familiar with the first third and the last third of their journey, and who said that the route for the remaining third ,as shown by them. was as described to him by his son after his return with Dr. Cook.
 Notes of their statements were taken by several of us, and no one of us has any doubt that they told the truth.
 Their testimony was unshaken by crcss-examination, was coluUborated by other men in the tribe. and was elicited neither by threats nor prom ises, the two boys and their father talking of their journey and their ex- pelfences in the same way that they would talk of any hunting trip.
 To go more into details: One ot the boys was called in, and with a chart on the table before him, was asked to show where he had gone with Dr Cook. This he did, pointing out with his fin CT On the map. but not making any marks upon it.
