GILMAN S KOA
TABLE SET UP

Secretary Mott-Smith has received
the following interesting letter from
Hon. Gorham ID. Gilman of Boston:
Boston, May "a, 1909.
Honorable Il. A. Mott-Smith.
My Dear Sir:-I wrote you some
weeks ago that after over five months
waiting had received the koa table
sent me by kind friends at Honolulu.
The table was SO water-soaked by its
being sunk in the salt water of He'll
Gate that each part had to be separated
from its adjoining part and thoroughly
dried, after which each part was re-
stored and the table made as complete
as when it left the manufacturer in
Hilo.
The result is very fine specimen
of Hawaii's beautiful wood, and also
OF beautiful piece of furniture. II
is source of constant admiration. Tha
accompanying testimonial hangs near
by and tells the story of aloha.
Am l asking too much of you to do
the favor to announce through the press
that the table has reached its destina.
ton, and is most highly priced by the
recipient of such valuable gift.
l would ask that the Hawaiian Ga
zette might make the acknowledgment,
as see that paper, and thus know that
the present was duly made.
Very truly yours,
GORHAM d. GILMAN.

JURY FAILED TO
FIND MURDERER
(From sunday s Advertiser. }

Who killed Henry wetherill, the
negro, is stin an unanswered question
in police circles. Who they believe
committed the crime is another story,
and to justify their suspicious "Wai1
kilVi," Jim McCandless and Tom Cum.
mings, all Hawaiians, are held under
investigation, with the finger pointing
more to the first than to the others.
But even with these suspicious upper
most pointing in the direction of "Wa-
ikiki, - Il footprint found near the scene
of the murder into which one of Nc.
suspicious in another direction, and, as
the lrishman says. can there y are. -
The coroner's jury, which for four
evenings and portion OF yesterday
afternoon heard evidence from a large
number Of persons who had been more
or less in contact with Wetherill, ended
its deliberations yesterday by render.
ing verdict to the effect that Wether.
i'll was certainly killed, but by some
person to the jury unknown. The YER
diet reads as follws:
"Henry Wetherill, alias Henry Wal,
came TO his death on the 18th day Of
June, 1909, from severe wounds in the
head and fractures TO the skull, said
wounds being inflicted by blunt in
strument, to wit, piece of scantling 2
inches by 3 inches, by feet l inch
long, held in the hands of some person
to this jury unknown.
But the testimony in the hands of
the police and the County Attorneys
Office is valuable, inasmuch as it is
conflicting mass of contradictions, in
which many of the witnesses are clearly
shown to have deliberately lied. This
is particularly true of Waikiki" an
unprepossessing Hawaiian of low stat.
ure, whose police record both here and
on the Coast is bad, particularly for
fighting. His testimony was clearly
proven to be valueless except to show
him to be liar, and valueless in prov
ing who was the murderer. But these
lies and contradictions are valuable to
the police authorities, for they show
that Waikiki" is apparently trying
to hide his own movements on the night
of the murder.
Henry Wetherill, although to all in.
tents negro. is on the articles of the
S. S. Pleiades as Henry Wal, "born in
Hawaii Among Hawaiian sailors on
the Pleiades he was thought to be
part Hawaiian. A coroner's juryman
said he was sure that Wetherill was
once known as Santos.

DIMES WORTH or
POI WAS COSTLY

All on account of dimes worth of
poi, three persons contri ibuted $37 as
the total amount of costs and fines into
the police court treasury yesterday
morning, and the lawyers fees (there
was legal adviser for each side) are
not included. Joe Castro, the Guam
Wonder, that is, of former years, in
the roped arena, contributed $22 and
Wong Chow $15, both having been ar
rested for affray.
The trouble started over Mrs. Castro
sending to Wong Chow's for ten cents
worth of poi, which the Chinaman re-
fused to give unless the dime was forth.
coming. Mrs. Castro went over to talk
to Chow about it and wordy alterca-
tion resulted and blows were struck.
Joe appeared on the scene and started
to clean out the establishment. His
former athletic training came handy
and it is said he bowled over about
three poi Founders.

CONFIDENCE

said Lord Chatham, " is a plant
of slow growth" People believe
in things that they see, and in a
broad sense they are right. What
is sometimes called blind faith is
not faith at all. There must be
reason and fact to form a foun-
dation for trust. In regard to a
medicine OF remedy, for example,
people ask, elias it cured Oh
els? Have cases like mine been
relieved by it? Is it in harmony
with the truths of modern science,
and has it a record above susr;c-
ion? If so, it is worthy cf conf
dence; and if am ever attacked

it is commended, | shall resort

JAPANESE Do NOT
ALLEGE DISCRIMINATION

tion for license was recently re-
fused. For my part, when the COM
missioners state that the location Il
have is not satisfactory, or they have
some other reason for refusing me a
license, bow to their decision. I
do not claim or believe that there was
any discrimination against me because
of my race or my feelings in regard to
the strike.
Il can go further than that; I be-
lieve that from my knowledge of the
japanese engaged in the liquor busI-
ness in Oahu l can say that there is
neither discrimination against them
nor any talk among them of discrim-
ination."

Court Proceedings.

Arraignments and the fixing of bonds
on the new indictments returned against
the Japanese connected with the lead.
ership in the wage agitation, were the
order of the day in court proceedings
yesterday. The final result was that
sufficient sureties were presented by
Attorney Lightfoot for the six defend
ants and they secured their release.
At the morning session of Judge De
Bolts department of the Circuit Court
the six leaders were arraigned on
charges of conspiracy to commit mur-
der and conspiracy 20 commit assault
and battery on the person of Editor
Sheha of the Hawaii Shinpo.
The six men arraigned were Negoro,
Maxine, Tasaka, Kawamura, Yamashi-
ro and Soga, the proceedings being
characterized by a discussion as to
whether additional bonds should be re-
quired of the men and statement by
Judge De Bolt in which he stated that
even handed justice must be dealt out,
both to the prosecution and the de-
fense, and also that the law did not
recognize any nationality.
Arguing against requiring further
bonds of his clients, Lightfoot stated
that by reason of the number of
charges that We're accumulating against
the men it was becoming a difficult
problem to secure the necessary bonds
men, and the indications were that the
prosecution would secure more indict-
ments in the future.
