CANAL CHARGES MET
BY COUNTERCHARGES.
Representative Lowering Declares AL
legations Were Circulated for
Blackmail.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-That Rep
>,esentative Rainey of Illinois got
from the New York World his infor-
nation regarding the Panama canal
affairs, which formed Ithe subject OF
his recent speech, and that eS-con-
victs instigated the stories OF fraud
and corruption pertaining to the ac-
ouirement Of title by the United Sta
les to the property, was the charge
made today in the house of repres-
5ntatives by Mr.. Lowering Of Mas
Sachusetts. MAY be- he said, 1.-The
World did not originate all the scan-
dalous stories it published, but It's
columns were public and We do know
$hat the World did give credence and
circulation to lthem.'
Mr.. Lowering declared THAT "the
perpetrators Of these false statements
are known and the story Of their do
ings reveals a chapter in the history
of blackmailing that is rare in the
annals of crime. These gentlemen, "
he said, fare known; their names are
known, their aliases are known; their
harrnts are known and their plans are
KNOWN
"Does the gentleman object to
stating who they are?'; inquired Mr..
Burleson of Texas.
Mr.. Lowering protested that he was
laboring under great difficulty be-
cause of the absence Of MIR. Ralney
from the chamber. He admitted that
he did not notify the Illinois member
that he was to speak on this subject.
II want to say" said he, THAT these
men have been run down and brought
to book, and it turns out that many
Of them are ex-convicts, and they
stand a good chance Of returning to
the penitentiary.'
Names Known to Grand Juries.
He was pressed by Mr.. Shackel-
ford of Missouri for information as
to who these cony-icts were, but MIR.

EXTRA DIVIDEND
FROM BREWERY

A strong runfor is going the rounds
that within a short time the Honolulu
Brewery will hand out an extra diVi-
dend. The directors of the company,
when questioned, refused to deny the
story and coming from good authority
it is generally believed, The under
standing is to. the effect that the brew
ing company has accumulated quite
surplus and that part of this is to be
divided among the stockholders.
On the Stock Exchange today lower
prices ruled, following the natural
course of events with the strike in
progress Eva sold for S2S this morn
ing, while Waialua was at $780, Oahu
Sugar was at $S125. Hawaiian Com
mercial sold for $50. No large blocks
of stock changed hands, there seeming
to be a general feeling out of the mar
ket for the present, rather than any
general bear movement.

4 SCRAP OF PAPER

Several pleasant surprises are in
store for those who attend the Puma
hou Dramatic Clubs play, "A Scrap of
Paper" in Charles r. Bishop hall Sat
urday evening. Miss Cowan, the head
of the oral expression department at
Oahu College, where acting, speaking
before an audience and the fundamen-
tails of distinct speech are taught, has
succeeded in bringing to light several
very promising young actors. The
cast also contains several well known
amateur actors of this city.
Miss Cowan, who is directing the
for this comic drama, has
had wide and success.dI experience
in producing plays in Boston and
neighboring cities, where the audien-
ces are the most critical. The utmost
care and pains have been taken in
selecting the present cast and it is
being put through a most rigid coarse
of training Those who have seen the
cast rehearse predict that the perform
ance will certainly outclass any given
by school organization in this city.
The tickets which have been in the
hands of the students for the past
week have sold so easily that it ap-
pears as if a full house will greet the
young performers at the rise of the
curtain Saturday evening. If one has
the blues Saturday, good way to get
rid of them will be to get ticket at
the Bergstrom Music Co. and come to
the show at Punahou There is not a
dull moment in the whole comedy.

CRAZED BY
GINGERBREADEATIS

The tale of woe which is told by the
sailors of the Dirigo, which arrived in
port on Saturday evening, is one which
is typical of the sea lawyer. The sail
ors of the vessel were running around
town yesterday claiming that when
the vessel arrived in port they had been
ordered ashore by the captain without
being paid off and with no money with
which to eat.
The truth of the matter is that the
men walked ashore themselves when
the vessel got alongside the wharf and
took with them the steward and cook.
Fresh provisions in great quantities
were brought down from the market,
but there was no one to cook them on
board nor were the men there to eat
them. This part of the matter is left
out of the story of the sea lawyer
One of the members of the crew
handed Shipping Commissioner Almy
editor of the Pathfinder) a long COM
munication this morning complaining
that they had not been given their
daily allowance of food on the Dirigo
since April 2. He stated that the
captain had offered the weekly allow
ance. but had stated that the cook
would not make gingerbread for the
crew. The peculiar part of the com
munication was in the long bill-of-fare
for each meal served since the time OF
the complaint and which showed a
variety of which which was good
enough for first-class boarding house.
No complaint was made whatever OF
the quality of the food but from the
letter it is apparent that the complain
ant wants gingerbread several times
day on the ship which employees him

Lovers of true Celtic wit and hui
NOR, pretty love story, and play

goers will find in The Gossoon," the
Offering at the Orpheum tonight, some
thing to delight them. This is the
last week of the Elleford engagement
and the management has selected three

ant membranes of this pleasing or
ganization. The Gossoon' is some
thing new in Irish comedy drama. 1t

years ago but pretty picture of the
Emerald Isle and its quaint peoples

cast in strong light. There are sew
eral great comedy character parts and
all of the favorites of the organization
will have great chance to please. The
Osborn children will appear in the cast

Irish sketch in which they will intro

LAST NAVY
COAL HERE
NEXT LOAD MAY NOT BE NEEDED
TILL PEARL TIARBoR WORK is
READY.

The big ship Dirigo, which arrived in
port last Saturday evening will prob
ably be one of the last sailing vessels
to enter this harbor with coal for the
Honolulu naval station. A large amunt
of fuel is now on hand i'm this city
and unless Honolulu should receive d
number of visits from the vessels OF
the Pacific fleet within the next couple
of years it is thought that there is
plenty of coal on hand to last till the
new naval station at Pearl Harbor is
completed.
In the plans which have been made
for the Pearl Harbor station location
for coal bunkers has been provided.
The plant will be somewhat similar to
that of the Inter-Island Steam Naviga-
ton companys at the Bishop wharf in
that the vessel will be able to come
alongside of the bunkers and receive
their fuel direct from chutes. This
will not only mean a great saving of
money and labor but also of time. In
the coaling of vessels at the Cavite
oIdClOl III JuG IHlllpplH6S, Il6 uldCulu-
cry is such that one of the big battle
ships can be completely provided with
fuel in about three hours, the plant be-
ing able to place from 800 to 800 tons
of coal on board each hour, the amount
depending on the location of the bunk
ers of the ship and their consequent
accessibility.
No plans for the exact type of bunk
srs to be used at Pearl Harbor have yeU
been made by the Navy Department,
but this will be among the first parts
of the work to receive attention.
Through the bunker construction the
naval vessels will be coaled at much
smaller expense and, as has been stat
ed, with a saving of a great deal of
time.
