Friends Of Ballinger Scoff at the
Allegations Of Big Frauds.

Washington Aug. 1.-THE Interior
Department ridicules statements re.
garding the appropriation Of power
sites In Montana and the charge that
the chief officers Of the department
have used their influence to assist in
the Illegal patenting and combination
of Alaska coal claims. On the con-
trary, they assert the department is
now rushing these very coal cases to
hearing, with almost certain prospect
that they will be forfeited. No one
cares to say much In the absence OF
Secretary Ballinger, but some will ad-
nit that they believe the "informa'
ton" which has been spread broadcast
recently has been given out by the
Forest Service, which, they say, has
had men going through the Interior
Department records for some weeks
past.
II Is admitted that Baliinger once
drew up legal papers for Cunningham,
who has been manipulating some coal
deals, but 1t Is insisted that he has
had no business dealings with Gun.

WAIKIKI PLEASES

Waikiki's waters have won the Con.

evident this morning when for the
second time the party passed the Mo

The delights Of the warm water and
the novelty of the aquatic sports have

One OF the Congressman said this
afternoon that nowhere has he exper

echoed by several others In all earn

MERRILL INvEN7S I
SWITCH 7HR0WER
Local Citizen Has Scheme
For Street Railway
Tracks

An automatic switch, for the use
on street railways has been invented
by c. F. Merrill, formerly of the
stan, but now with the
Inter Island Steam Navigation Com
pany. The switch Is thrown by a
press foot attachment on the car
coming in contact with spring
knob, placed any distance from the
switch. The value OF the new APP
pliance is in the fact that by a sin
gle press from the car the switch
can be thrown to the right or left
hand track at the option of the mo-
torman. Each contact with the
press foot will throw the switch
from its present position to the oppo-
site, yet the apparatus does not In
the least interfere with the switch
being thrown by hand II occasion
should require, and after such hand
thrown movement the next contact
from q car will throw the switch
back again regardless Of the direc-
ton in which It was thrown by
hand.
The apparatus itself is simple In
construction, inexpensive to manu-
facture and has no complicated or
delicate parts to get out of order.
1t is believed by those interested
in the matter that the invention will
become popular, not only as time
saver, but will lessen the disagree
able duties of conductors during
during stormy weather, when they
must paddle out in the rain and mud
with a dirty switch iron to open the
gate.

Chamber.

Diversified industries and the neces-
sity for opening up land in this Ter
ritorv to white settlers, was the theme
of an interesting talk, delivered be-
fore the Chamber of Commerce yes
terday afternoon by M. H. de Young,
proprietor of the San Francisco Chron-

General Manager Schwerin, of the
Pacific Mail Steamship Company, fol-
lowed Mr.. de Young with a brief adj
dress.
The meeting was the most largely
attended that has been held under the
auspices of the Chamber of Commerce
for some time. In the absence of both
the president and vice president, L..
Tenney Peck was elected chairman. In
Introducing the speakers Mr.. Peck
said:
"Whenever I have visited San
Francisco / have been impressed by
the friendly feeling of the people Of
that city toward Honolulu. We all adj
mire San Francisco for the wonderful
progress which she has made since the
disaster. We have with us today two
men who have taken prominent place
in the rebuilding of that city, I refer
to Mr.. de Young and Mr.. Schwerin. -
Mr.. Peck then introduced Mr.. de
Young as a man who has long been an
avowed friend of Hawaii. Mr.. de

CHAs. NJ. COOKE
SUFFERS STROKE
Financier's Condition Serious
and Son Is Summoned
From MoIokai.

Charles NJ. Cooke has suffered sec
ond stroke of paralysis and the eondi-
ton of the veteran financier is critical.
The second shock came yesterday, and
members of the family were at once
summond. Last night it was given out
by the family that Mr.. Cooke S condi-
ton was rather more favorable.
When the shock came, it was at once
realized that Mr.. Cooke IS condition was
very grave. His son, George Cooke,
now on Molokai, was hastily summoned
home by wireless, and arrangements
were made to have the Mauna Loa stop
at Kaunakakai, Molokai, at midnight
last night in order to bring him to this
city.
Some six months ago, Mr.. Cooke suf-
fered his first shock of paralysis, and it
was feared for a time that he might
not recover. His strong constitution
stood him in good stead, however, and,
despite advancing years, he was able
to pull through. This second shock is
causing the family great anxiety, how
ever

Hawaiian BODY
DRIFTS ASHORE
Mystery Surrounding Missing
HiI0 Fishermen Is
Cleared Up.

The mystery surrounding the disap-
pearance of Nakahina and Kailianu,
two Hilo fishermen, some days ago, has
been cleared up. The horribly mutt
lated remains of Kailianu were diseov-
cred at Puma Hawaii, on Tuesday last,
according to mail advices from Waia-
kea, Hilo.
Tuesday morning telephone message
was received at Hilo to the effect that
the remains of a Hawaiian supposed to
be Nakahina, had been rescued from
the sea. The children of the missing
man went from Hilo to Puma to inves-
tigate, and discovered that the body
was that of Kailianu, their father s
companion on the Inflated fishing trip.
The body was in horribly mutilated
condition, and had evidently been part
" eaten by sharks. AS no trace has
been found of the remains of Naka-
hina, it is supposed that the scavengers
of the deep made way with his remains
entirely.
The two men started out from Hilo
about two weeks ago, on a fishing ex-
petition A storm came up, and the
last seen of them their frail Whitehall
boat was drifting toward the open sea-
Tt is supposed that their craft either
capsized or was dashed to pieces on the
rocky shore.
The remains of the unfortunate Kai-
lianu were buried at Puma.

CONSP|RhTORS NOT
SENTENCED YESTERDAY

Sentence was not pronounced yester-
day morning upon Maxine, Negoro,
Sega and Tasaka, who were convicted
on Tuesday of conspiracy. Yesterday
had been set by Judge De Bolt as the
time for sentencing the prisoners, but
Attorney Lightfoot appeared on behalf
of his clients and moved for con-
tinuance until next Saturday, in order
TO give him time to prepare motion
in arrest of Judgment.
The prosecution was represented yes
terday by Attorney General Hemenway
and County Attorney Catheart, instead
of by special counsel. Mr.. Hemenway
opposed Lightfoot s motion, saying he
could see no good reason why sentence
should not be pronounced.
Judge De Bolt took the ground, how
ever, that if sentence were pronounced,
. motion in arrest Of judgment pre-
scented at later date would be use
less, and he granted the motion for a
continuance.

TWENTY-FIVE MILES
IS MAXIMUM SPEED

Twenty-Five miles an hour in the
district of Honolulu will be the maxi
mum rate of speed allowed for motor
cars, when the traffic ordinance, pass
ed at the last meeting of the Board
of Supervisors, is signed by the Mayor.
This limit was placed in the ordinance
by Supervisor Quinn, himself motor
ist, and will put stop to scorching
on Kalakaua avenue and like thorough
fares.
In the downtown districts, and on
the Pail road, fifteen miles an hour is
the maximum speed. At crossings all
machines must slow down to ten miles.
These rules will, it is believed, put a
stop to the many accidents and mar
row escapes that are being reported.
