BLIND Pic KEEPER
IN LAWS TOLLS

All Chung, proprietor Of the Boston
restaurant on Hotel street, last night
fell into the clutches of the law, as
typifed by License Inspector Fennell.
All Chung, according to Fennell, made
the mistake of serving beer instead of
tea in the innocent looking cups which
he placed in front of Fennell s in
formers, and in consequence he now
finds himself in serious trouble.
Fennell had received information
that All Chung was selling liquor on
Sunday, so he concluded to see if the
Oriental restaurateur were also violat-
ing the after-hour regulations. Two
informers were sent to the restaurant
and were instructed to take seats at
a certain table, hanging their hats on
the wall. AS long as they were beer
less the hats were to remain hanging
up, but as soon as liquor was placed
In front of them they were TO remove
their sky pieces from the wall.
In the meantime. Fennell took sta
ton outside the door, and when he saw
the hats come down, he descended upon
the place He found in front of his
men tea cups filed with beer, so he
at once seized the proprietor In the
till was found the marked coin with
which the informers had paid for their
refreshments Fennell states that All
Chung had a white man employed to
tend the till.

Floral parade preparations are now
well under way. At yesterday after
noon S meeting of the Hawaiian Pro-
motion Committee the outlook for the
coming fete was discussed at length
and tentative plans were talked over.
The new floral parade poster, ad-
vance proofs of which have been on
display in the windows of the Promo
ton committee rooms in the Alexander
Young building, were received by the
Asia and were displayed for the first
time at the meeting. The posters re-
ceived are in two sizes, one suitable
for window card and the other post
card size
AS soon as a supply of the postcards
is received, the cards will be distribut-
ed with the request that they be used
for correspondence. AS the cards are
very attractive, it is not anticipated
that there will be any great difficulty
in inducing people to mail them.
Small stickers, suitable for sealing
letters, are expected shortly. These
will be distributed among the mer-
chants of the city and an effort will
be made to have every piece of bust
ness correspondence sent to the Orient
or the mainland for period of sew
eral weeks sealed with the stickers.
Several unique plans are being con-
sidered in connection with the floral
parade, the most ambitious being some
form of entertainment for tia after
noon. Just what form this eisertain-
ment will take has not been decided,
but several suggestions have been
made Admission may be charged to
he grounds where the afternoon en-
tertainment is given, and in this way
it is believed that the funds available
for the parade can be materially aug
mented.
Even at this carly date there are
indications that the automobile feature
will be even more impressive than IT
was last wear. Particular attention
will be given to the schools, and an
effort will be made to provide machines
for all of the educational institutions
unable to secure ears for themselves
Who the director of the parade will
he is as vet unknown, but an effort
will probably be made to induce L.
II. Petrie to serve again. .Petrie was
very successful last year, and to AIS
untiring efforts and diplomatic hand
ling of people was due in no small part
the success of the parade.
The hints concerning European car
nivals. which Lester Petrie was able
to secure while abroad, have been OF
inestimable value to the Promotion
committee. and many of the ideas will
doubtless be incorporated into the
coming fiesta

The Supervisors stirred up more trou-
Bile than they knew when they evolved
the post hole ordinance. There have
been charges and eountercharges, re-
ordinations and counterrecrimination
and now there is every indication that
there will be petitions and counter
petitions.
When the ordinance, requiring per-
mits and permit fees for every hole dug
in the city streets, was first introduced,
there were threats of lawsuits and so
froth from opposing corporations. There
were those who said that the County
was usurping the authority of the Ter
ritory: that it has no authority over
the city streets, and, therefore, can not
enforce any such law.
Under the present arrangement, per-
mits to tear up the city streets are is
sued by the Superintendent of public
works, on behalf of the Territory, it
being the theory that it is to the Ter
ritory that the streets belong. The
Supervisors claim that the County is
forced to pay for grading and paving
the streets, and that the County should
have SOME say-so about the tearing up
of those streets which have been graded
and paved.
This was the situation when the Mu-
tual Telephone Company appeared on
the scene. But with the advent of the
telephone concern the dispute develop
ed another phase. An official of the
company announced that the promised
rebuilding of the lines would be stop
ped right on the spot, were the company
forced to pay 81 per hole for each post
located. The Supervisors met that by
cutting the tax per hole in two, making
it but 80 cents. But that did not seem
to satisfy the representatives of the
telephone company.
Then business men of the city, pan
icky lest the telephone company should
conclude to change its mind and not re-
build the system, began to east dubious
chances in the direction of the Super
visors. The thought of doing with the
old telephone system did not look at
all promising.
1t is rumored that at the next meet
ing of the Merchants Association an
effort will be made to get through a
resolution urging the Supervisors to re-
scind the action 50 far taken, and at
least leave out the Zee part in prOvid-
ing for the issuance Of permits and in
spection Of the excavations. There
seems to be some doubt on the part Of
various members as to the ACCESSIBILITY
of the association taking any stand IN
the matter, however, and what dlsposi-
ton will be made of the resolution
should it be introduced is question.
The slowness of the old company IN
renovating the telephone system has
prejudiced a good many people against
telephone companies in general, and the
new corporation is evidently being
blamed for some Of the alleged short
comings of its predecessor.
But whether or not the Merchants
Association goes on record as opposed
to the new ordinance, there seems to be
every likelihood that a squabble will
result. The Supervisors are determin-
ed to ascertain whether they have con
troll over the streets which they grade
and pave, or whether a Territorial Off
cial can legally step in and undo part
of the work. The post-hole ordinance,
introduced originally as d mere police
measure, seems destined to prove the

WATERFRONT NEWS

Yesterday afternoon about clock
the cruiser Washington was moved
from the wharf where she has been
taking on coal, over to the Quarantine
wharf. there to wait till this morning
-fwhen she will go out to the roadstead.
This was matter of international
courtesy on the part of Admiral Sebree,
who ordered the Washington away to
make room for the British cruiser Bed
ford. so that the latter could come in
side the harbor and take on coal. The
Bedford will come inside and dock
early this morning.
Sick Men on Concord.
The Z. s. 5. Concord that left the
harbor for San Francisco yesterday
morning, took along several sick men
from the Pacific feet. She will dock
at Mare Island where the patients will
be landed and will stay there long
enough to take on coal and supplies
Then she will go to Bremerton where
she will undergo repairs of very
important nature. New boilers viii
be installed and she will receive an
entirely new battery as all her guns
were left at Guam, whence she came
here, for defense purposes.
Nearly an Accident
There was very nearly nasty acct
dent to a naval steam launch last
evening In going out from the har
Dor to one of the cruisers anchored
outside. the steersman thought that he
could cut down the distance by going
outside of the lighted marks. The
consequence was that the launch faced
lsnme rollers that break over the shoals
NJ each side of the harbor entrance.
lssckily they were going out and not
coming in, so that, in spite of the break
of the wave-crests. the launch rode it
out all right Had they been coming
in. there is little doubt that they
would have swamped. It is expected
that a general order will be sent out
for all launches to keep to the chan
mel under all conditions.
Sea Wren Launched.
Yesterday morning the second of the
Sailing Std NTSuS WAS lduucuou
Sorenson & Lyle's ways. The little
craft took the water well and her mast
was soon stepped and the sail bent on.
She belongs to Vice Commodore Jaeger
of the Hawaii Yacht Club, who is now
on the Coast preparing to bring back
his speed cruiser being built by Swan
son. The sail did not set very well
but, in spite of the squally weather,
she acted nobly and was sailed round
to her moorings back of the Allen and
Robinson lumber wharf without any
trouble. As soon as the sail can be
altered it is understood that catch

not such good strokes of business as
they have vainly thought.
Two Complaints Sworn To.
The territorial authorities are also
hot after the violators of the spirit
of the Sunday law. The brewery will
probably be the first to feel the ven
geance of the incensed authorities.
License Inspector Fennell yesterday
swore to two complaints charging vio-
lation of the Sunday law. One of them
is against the Honolulu Brewing and
Mating Company, and the other is
against Charles Bartlett, manager of
the brewery. These two charges will
be pressed to the full limit of the law.
Five citations were also served yes
terday Four of them are against the
saloons which sold the Sunday deliv-
| dered to appear before the License
Commission on Wednesday next and
show cause why their licenses should
not be revoked for violation of the
Sunday law.
The fifth citation is against the Ho-
nolulu Brewing and Mailing Company,
and covers practically the same ground
as the other four
Letter of Law Violated.
The License Commissioners have
agreed that not only was the spirit of
the law violated but the letter as well,
and there will be but little considera-
ton shown the persons implicated if
the various charges can be made to
stick, and it is believed thar they can.
Any hope that the officials of the
brewery, and the proprietors of the i'm
plicated saloons may have had that the
agitation would blow over has proven
vain, for popular indignation is arous-
ed to point where something must
be done About the only persons who
are looking upon the whole affair with
supreme satisfaction are the advocates
of total prohibition. for there is a
general sentiment that the liquor in
terests have received the hardest blow
which has yet come to them. In spite
of their efforts to cover up their con-
fusion. the implicated saIoonkeepers
are evidently far from comfortable.
The citations were served on the
proprietors of the Orpheum, Pantheon.
/ Encore and Klemme saloons late yes
terday afternoon.
