NEW PUZZLE
FOR ANDRADE

John Gray, an old white man held
at the police station, is proving a mys-
terry as well as something of a nuis-
ance to both police and court officials.
He wants to leave the Islands, but the
steamship companies refuse to take
him on the ground that they regard
him as crazy. A ticket was actually
secured by him for Vancouver but he
was turned away at the steamers
gangway. He then tried other steam
er and even sailing ship agencies, but
was refused ticket by all of them.
DR.. Emerson examined the man yes
terday and again this morning, and
the expert declares that the old fell
low is sane. That, as anyone can rea-
Oily see, blocks the police in their eff
fort to send him to the insane asylum
for treatment. AT the same time Gray
is such a nuisance around town that
the police do not desire that he be
set at liberty again.
In police court this morning the
man certainly acted as though he had
one or several screws loose. In an
swer to the court he stated that he
was aware that an insanity law once
existed on the Hawaiian statute books.
but that it was repealed at his in
stance in 1886. He said that he was
born in 1910, and that his original
name was Tom Thumb, but that he
had changed it to Gray. BY occupa-
ton he was an expert Small farmer, -
but had temporarily fallen off his clod-
heap. Judge Andrade sidetracked the
case to next Saturday, and in the
meanwhile will not be sorry if the
man finds it convenient to sail away,
stowaway, vamoose, slidoo or other
wise vanish. He is tired of the man,
but, like the other fellow with the
bear, can't let go.
This was ''vag day" in police court.
Chu Sung Wha stood a long trial but
was finally sent over for three months.
Tong Duck 500, or Chun Duck Choon,
an old offender, was given nine
months. This man spends most of his
time in prison, and was recently re-
leased after serving a long term. All
Kai, Chinaman, will try the reef for
three months on the same charge.
Josephine, one of the bellies of the
Magoon block, stood a lengthy trial
on the charge of maintaining a night
carousal. Mr.. Rider, of the Kakaako
Mission, was one of several witnesses.
The defendant was finally allowed to
go with reprimand and court costs,
amounting to something over SO.

A question by Logan as to why road
material was hauled way through
town for road repair when it might
be taken from Kalihi quarry and why
Kalihi quarry was shut down, devel-
oped the fact that the quarries are
worked alternately on account OF the
small force of men, and the kind OF
material desired is not always obtain
able from one quarry. The January
garbage bureaus report showed a def
icit of $274.7O, though there is bal
ance left over from the appropriation.
There were a number of demands for
payment of bills for the road depart
ment and several bills for advertising,
all of which were passed over the
head of the Mayor.

PoPuLAR DEMONSTRATION.

There is going to be a rally of ath-
letes at Haleiwa when the Marathon
walkers reach there. The rally means
more than giving the public an oppor-
tunity to see an assembly of young
men of endurance, it means a demon
stration in favor of keeping island
roads up to a standard of that between
Honolulu. The walk, or race, over the
line should be taken as evidence that
if the road is good enough to race ov-
err it is good enough for automobile
riding. Persons desiring accommoda-
lions should communicate with St.
Clair Bidgood, manager.

tried TO entrap him; it threatened him
with assassination and they declared
that when he was out of office they
would make it impossible for him to
live in Missouri. Knowing that behind
the city machine was the still more
powerful state machine, the people of
Missouri, by this time thoroughly
aroused, placed Folk in the office of
governor with orders for q general
house-cleaning.
How well he succeeded and the story
of his tremendous victory as Missouri's
chief executive Is generally known
Since then he has been a figure Of
national interest. He consented to a
brief lecture tour only after the most
insistent urging and on being convinc-
ed that the public has some right to the
time of every man with a message.
His honesty and sincerity are above
doubt or question
The Behymer lyceum bureau received
a phone message from Folk last even
ing stating that he would leave Fresno
on the Owl at II p. m, reaching Los
Angeles at 8:55 this morning.
He has accepted a luncheon engage
ment with the City club for Saturday,
and will devote a greater part of the
afternoon to sight seeing. Saturday
evening he will lecture at Simpson
auditorium under the auspices of the
Entire Nous club, and judging from
the advance sale of tickets this lee
ture will be well attended.

SENATOR'S DISCUSS
CHANGES IN TARIFF
PROPOSAL TO PLACE DUTY ON
CHESTNUT BARK EXTRACT
Interesting Contest Waged Over the
Rate Upon the Importation
of Cottonseed OIL and
White Lead

WASHINGTON, May 20.-The senate
distributed its attention today among
the three items in the tariff bill pro-
Viding a duty on an extract of chestnut
bark used in tanning, known as que
brache, on cotton seed oil and on white
lead. On each of these articles the SEN
ate was led by the committee on
finance, though the committee was in
duced to change its original SUCCESS
lions on both white lead and cotton seed
oil.
The lead duty fixed by the commit
tee was originally 2B cents a pound,
but Mr.. Curtis, a member of the COM
mittee, suggested a reduction of Il of
a cent a pound, bringing the figure
down to 2s4c and Chairman Aldrich
accepted the reduction.
When the vote was taken the COM
Tnittee triumphed Al to 80. AS usual
Senators Beveridge, Bristow, Burkett,
Clapp, Cummins, Dolliver Gamble, La
Toilette and Nelson voted with the
Democrats. Senator Borah voted with
the Republicans.
Probably the most interesting con-
test was over the duty on cotton seed
oil. Senators Tillman, Bacon and
Money fought the senate provision fix
ing a tariff of cents a gallon, on the
ground that it would injure the sale of
cotton seed, and after the controversy
had gone on for some time Mr.. Aldrich
withdrew the provision.
Mr.. LaFollette sought to reduce the
duty on quebrache to 4 of q cent a
pound, but his amendment was re-
jected, 20 to SO. Mr.. Daniel led the
fight for a higher rate, exciting much
interest because Of his advocacy of low
duties in the past. He did not succeed
and the duty was fixed at u cent per
pound, instead of q of a cent, as he
proposed.

Although he had acquainted himself
with all of the facts concerning the
controversy between the city of VIII
mington and Hancock Banning, with
reference to harbor work around NOR
mon island, Secretary A. +. FLEMING OF
the Los Angeles consolidation commit
tee stated yesterday that 1t would pc
useless to discuss the merits of the
case from the standpoint OF the COM
mittee. He says the committee is
working in harmony with all of the
forces directly concerned in consollda-
ton and in the building of a great har-
Dor All that is before the committee
now is the working out in detail OF a
plan of consolidation to be submitted to
the city councils of Los Angeles, san
Pedro and Wilmington, or to the trus-
tees, as the case may be. AS soon as
these plans are sufficiently matured
petitions calling an election will be cir
culated in Wilmington, San Pedro and
Los Angeles. The consolidation COM
mittees of the three cities are working
in absolute harmony.
Discussing the Wilmington-Bannin
incident, a member of the consolidation
committee said yesterday;
80 far as it affects the plans of the
consolidation committee of Los Angeles
the strife between the city of Whining
ing around Mormon island and the
withdrawal of the little city's applica-
ton to the war department to do GER
tain things the incident is not consid-
cred seriously. In the event of con-
solidation the members of the commit
tee are certain that Wilmington will get
Just and fair treatment, as they have
pledged Los Angeles to this policy
Whether the Banning company and
Wilmington can agree upon par
ticular piece of work or not is not
a matter with which the committee
will deal ocially. Making the har-
Dor along lines for the advantage
of San Pedro Wilmington and Los An
geles, the plans of which must of neces-
sity meet with the approval of the war
department, is the matter which is be-
fore the committee.
1t is pointed out in this connection
by an army officer, that there is some
doubt as to the war department taking
favorable action on the application
made by Wilmington, inasmuch as the
proposed work does not conform to the
harbor lines on file with the department.
The department, at any rate, would not
undertake or sanction any work unless
approved by the engineer in whose dis
trict the work is to be done, and if
authorized 1t would be along the lines
of surveys already made, or according
to new or special survey.
Capt. A. A. Fries, United States en-
giner, in charge of this district, is out
of the city, and his opinion as to the
Wilmington dredging work, which as
outlined does not conform to the harbor
lines surveyed and established by the
government, could not be had. In the
meantime the consolidation committee
is working on a plan of merging the
cities that will be acceptable to all of
them.

MOTHER SHOOTS
AND KILLS BABY
Quarrel with Husband Leads to Sepa=
ration and She Makes Attempt
to End Her.
Life

SAN FRANCISCO, May 20.-Follow-
ing a difference with her husband that
led to a separation. Mrs. Laura Mac
Donald shot and killed their 9-year-old
son, John, as the babe lay in his bed
tonight. The woman then took poison,
but when she was removed to the
emergency hospital the doctor stated
that she would live.
Mrs. MacDonald's husband, j. M.
Macdonald, left her about ten days ago
after a quarrel. He returned on Tues
day, only to announce that he intended
to go away again to Portland, Ore.
The woman brooded over this until to-
night, when, after preparing her little
son for bed, she drew back the covers
and held a 3S-caliber revolver within
two inches of his body and fired, the
bullet passing through the babes heart.
Mrs. Macdonald then swallowed sew
eral antiseptic tablets which made
her sick but had no other effect. She
seized a bottle of carbolic acid and
was about to drink the contents when
c. M. Green, fellow ledger in the
hotel where the shooting occurred,
broke into the room and knocked the
bottle from her hands.
The woman was taken to the hos
pital and the tablets were removed by
means of a stomach pump.
