II still have my watch and chain
yet and you can get it by sending to
the State Hotel or Rooming house, in
Pendleton, Oregon, but / haven't any
money to send you"
Note 10 Landlady.
The note to the landlady was as
follows:
ITO the Landlady
please Notify My Dear Mother
Mrs, George Dyer at 174S SO. Emer-
son st. Denver, Colorado Of what |
have done. you will find enough mon
ey on my person to telegraph to her.
Please see that she gets my watch and
chain as they were a present to me
from her 13 years ago. Please do
this for her sake she knows what my
troubles have been and she will tell
my wife. Good by
"ED FAWCETT,
"P. s. VIII you please mail this
letter to my Mother for me-"
Had Little Money.
A search Of his clothing revealed
$3.50 and the gold watch and chain
referred to In the letters. No trace
could be found OF the photograph
over which he was seen crying We'd
nesday night and 1t is believed that he
destroyed It In some manner Thurs
day.
Coroner Folsom Immediately noti-
fled the mother by wire and the wo-
man answered this morning, asking
that the remains be shipped to her at
Denver. This will be done this af-
ternoon.
Buys Poison Here.
Both poisons, the strychnine as
well as the carbolic acid, were pur-
chased at the Tallman drug store.
so 1t Is apparent that the despondent
young man made all arrangements
for his rash act after his arrival in
this city.
In one of the letters which he had
started to his mother and had later
up and thrown away, he
says, 81 did not think months ago
that I would ever be in a shape that
could not even get something to do
'or my board. but am that way now"
This would seem to indicate that he
had expected to find some kind of
when he reached this
,ity and his failure to do so was the
hing which finally led him to decide
10 end his life and troubles at one
and the same time.

Tragedy Is Discovered.

When the landlady, Mrs NJ. A.
Todmuntear, tried the door about
$3.50 yesterday morning, it was lock-
ed. Thinking he had not awakened
she made no further examination.
but when a few hours later II still
remained locked she looked through
the keyhole and could see the body
lying on the bed. Thinking that he
had been up and then came back
to lie down she did not make any
disturbance until about o'clock in
the afternoon when she became
alarmed and looking over the tran
som could see the man was dead.
Coroner Folsom was Immediately no.
titled and took charge of the re-
mains.
Two letters were left by the sui
eide, one to his mother and the other
note to the landlady. From the
sheets of paper that had been
crumpled up and cast aside, it was
evident that he had made three at
tempts to write to his mother be-
fore finally getting a composition
that suited him. The letter is as
follows:
Blames Another for His Troubles.
Pendleton, Ore, July 10, '09.
'"My Dear Mother: I will write
you a few lines tonight, by the time
they reach you, you will have heard
of what have done the only thing

BORAH TAKES FALL
OUT OF BEvERIDGE

Senator Borah went on to explain the
wish of the people of Idaho. He said
in closing:
MY colleague and | went through
our state during the last campaign
discussing our idea of revision, and it
was based upon protection to American
industries and American labor. Idaho
returned a greater majority by far
for Mr.. Taft on that Interpretation
than Indiana diu upon the interpreta-
tion which the Senator from Indiana
seems to have given the platform
The older Senators, recalling that
Indiana went democratic on almost
everything except the national ticket,
smiled blandly at Borahs slam at
Beveridge, and several of them walked
over and shook his hand after he sat
down.

FINE JOB
ON LURLINE
CAPTAIN WEEDEN MAKES RE-
CORD IN REPLACING PROPELLER
BLADE OF HIS STEAMER.

Captain Weden of the Lurline de-
serves the credit for one OF the neatest
jobs ever handled in this harbor, in
the placing of the new propeller blade
of the Lurline in position. The Ko-
rea, bringing the new 5000 pound blade
arrived at the Hackfeld dock yesterday
morning st 10 O'Clock and at three
Weeden telephoned to the office of
Castle & Cooke tnat it was in position
and everything was o. X.
The work was handled very nicely.
While in Kahului Captain Weeden cal
Culated out the matter to a nicely. He
decided that the work could be done
without the expense of docking the
vessel and set about the task. The
Lurline was placed alongside the rail
road dock where sugar was dumped
into her forward matches in huge guam
titles. When at Kahului all the su-
gar was taken on board forward. Gra-
dually the stern of the big steamer be-
gan to rise from the water, till finally
the hub to which the broken blade was
attached could be seen. This was de-
tached and the new blade placed in
position and secured. Then a Golfer
dam of canvas was used while the new
blade was cemented into its proper
position and the work was done.
Many of those on the waterfront
were doubtful of the success of the
work, but Weeden showed them
The same sort of a job was done in
this harbor some years ago on the
transport Warren, but in that case the
time taken was much longer and the
work was not handled in the shipshape
manner that was seen yesterday. Cap
tain Weeden was here at the time and
watched the job, which enabled him to
avoid some of the mistakes which were
made at that time.

COLD BADGE
FOR LEAL

The members of the Honolulu police
department detective bureau this
morning, with appropriate good wish
es, presented Chief of Detectives Joe
Leal with a handsome gold badge of
office of the kind which may be pinned
noticeably on his shirt, upon which
token is inscribed the fact that he is
Chief of Detectives, name, date, etc.
This is the occasion of the twenty
ninth anniversary of the birth of said
Chief Few people may have suspect
ed that Leal is as young as twenty
nine, yet such is the case. Young in
years, he is nevertheless old in the
ways OF crime.

STILL ANOTHER MARY.
Mary Morris, somewhat Amazonian
in structure, besought Deputy Sheriff
Rose this morning to get out warrants
for Young who conducts a Fort street
lodging, and also for one Gray, alles-
ing that one of the gentlemen had as
saulted her early today, dragging her
in the mud, tearing her hair and draw
ing blood from her arm. she pleaded
for prosecution of her assailants, but
she was carrying a fairish jag and the
deputy advised her to go home and
sleep it off and to return sober and
detail her troubles. Mary Morris is
known to the police and the advice
was based on previous experience. In
the corridor of the police station she
held forth. moderately eloquent and
not too loud, arguing that because
along life's thorny path she had occa-
sionally specifically accepted proprie-
ties was no reason why people to whom
she had not been introduced should
cast ASPIRATIONS on her character.
These were not her words, but her
is reported faithfully
Let those what amt never done
wrong themselves open their faces at
me- she declared, which was an in
elegant but none the less forceful way
of saying: Let him who is without
sin among you cast the first stone"

PROCESSES LOVE
FOR HIS VICTIM

Raymond NJ. Baker is now playing
on the string of intense affection for
the woman he has last fooled. A
statement made by him in the form
of a letter to Honolulu resident is
substantially as follows:
II am at present, as you doubtless
know, confined in the Honolulu Jail
on a charge of bigamy. the charge
being that, on May / of this year, |
did wrongfully marry one Eva b. Wal
lace.
when the proper time comes, |
am going to plead guilty to the charge
and assist the authorities in every
way.
Il desire to state that | was mar
ried, June 70, 1900, at st. Joseph, Mi
chigan, to Mary Lamos. We are at
present not living together and prob
ably never will. If this trouble had
not come up we would have remained
apart.
Il feel that | have done the pres
ent Mrs. Baker formerly Wallace) a
very great injustice and am about to
own up so that may have my trial
as speedily as possible, serve my term
and devote my life in a measure to
making up to her for the great wrong
that ! have done her"

Especial Correspondence of The Starr
WASHINGTON, May 16.-Very few
men i'm the United States Senate ad-
mire the senior Senator from Indiana.
but that fact does not disturb Mr.. Bev-
eridge in the slightest degree. On the
contrary he appears to be entirely OBJ
livious of sights at the hands of older
Senators, and their GOODNESS towards
him goes unnoticed. Whenever oc-
casion offers, some of the older SEN
ators will take a fall out Of Bev-
eridge, and all will enjoy it. Not
long since, the Indiana Senator was
taking part in the discussion of the
tariff on lead, and advocated reduc-
tion of the Dingley rates In pursu'
ing this course, he ran counter to Sen
ator Borah of Idaho, who advocated
the retention of the Dingley rates.

THE SUGAR MEN
HIGHER UP

There has been a general Gnicker at
the Indictment of the Seven Wicked
Weighers of the American Sugar Re
fining Company, and the grave assur-
ance of the companys officers that
the men had all been discharged from
the company's service as soon as their
malfeasances were discovered. They
had to be discharged, of course, and
of course it is right that they should
be indicted but as our neighbor, the
Wall Street Journal, points out, the
officers of the company that employed
them cannot, as men of ordinary
common sense, suppose thatt he world
will believe that small band of sub
ordinate employees, receiving salaries
of not more than thirty dollars a
week each at the outside, would, among
themselves, organize a plot to put up
ward of two Millions of the public's
money into the pockets of the Anne
rican Sugar Refining Company out of
sheer altruism." No, that would be
absurd. These indicted weighers and
checkers were as much sinned against
as SHINING. No other conjectme is
tenable than that they were employed
for many years, and paid, to cheat.
We agree with the Wall Street Jour
nal, above quoted, that public opinion
will not (and should not) be satisfied
with the punishment of a few weigh

Police Judge Andrade this morning
from the bench handed out roast that
must have stung downstairs" for a
Chinese assailant of two tiny children,
the offspring of Mr.. and Mis-. Gus
Cordes, had to be allowed to depart
under nolle prosequi owing to the
faulty, careless, stupid manner in
which the complaint had been drawn.
I'm getting sick and tired of this
sort of thing" declared His Honor,
why doesn't somebody that knows
how to draw up these complaints?
And Prosecuting Attorney A. M. Brown
echoed the emphatic sentiments of the
court.
1t is possible, of course, for the Chi
nese storekeper, Kwong Chong, to be
again complained against, and Gus
Cordes intends to see that it is done,
but much valuable time and energy
has been wasted owing to the oft-re-
peated incompetence of the mysterious
drafter of complaints This complaint
was not drawn in the Office of the City
and County Attorney where such things
might be supposed to originate.
One of Cordes little girls and a small
girl of the Chinese got into a scrap
and the Chinese took it upon himself
to visit his anger on the children of
Cordes, lifting boy hardly more than
a baby, and then throwing him to the

MAUI PLANTATION WILL TAKE
OFF BETWEEN $4,000 AND $4,000
TONS OF SUGAR THIS SEASON.

The Hawaiian Commercial plantation
will have a crop Of well over $4,000
tons of sugar this year, according to
a statement made this morning by
Frank F. Baldwin, who is now in this
city. He stated that everything was
in good shape and that no trouble was
anticipated on Maui from strikes. In
three weeks more the entire crop will
be completed which will place things
on an absolutely safe basis. Tomor-
row night $4,000 tons of the plantations

mill and the start will be made on the
final run of the remainder

no change today as far as work on the
various plantations ih concerned, all
Japanese on all estates except Waianae
and Waimanalo being out on strike.
The usual number of stribebreak-
ers are going to Aiea, Waipahu and

sides, planters and strikers. are stand

SHERIFF FROM KAHUKU.
Sheriff Jarrett this morning return
ed from Kahuku plantation where he
went in the interests Of peace among
the strikers. He reports that when
he left there seemed to be no indica.
ton that the ten special police station
ed there would have any emergency
work to perform.
The plantation management had is
sued notice that fifty of its employees
would be no longer required, owing to
falling off of work and was ready to
pay them off The striking Japanese,
off and this will be done, whereupon
the Japanese strikers will leave Ka-
huku plantation and either come to
town or seek shelter in the quarters of
friends in the village of Waialua. if
they can find sufficient accommoGa-
tions.
Some of the Japanese strikers have
made small improvements at their own
expense, to the quarters they occupied
on the plantations, and, in considera-
ton of their leaving, the plantation
will survey the improvements and pay
the vacating Japanese for the value of
such improvements.
PLANTERS STAND PAT.
The result of yesterdays meeting of
the managers of plantations of all the
islands, with members of the Sugar
Planters Association, was a resolu-
ton, arrived at late in the afternoon, to
this effect:
1T is the sense of this meeting that
the plantations represented in this
Association make no concessions to the
striking employees in the nature of in
creased compensation"
1t was also agreed that the expenses
of breaking the strike should be borne
pro rata by every plantation in the as
sociation.
The feeling, of the meeting was that
the present trouble is the result or
the work of agitators and not because
the strikers are themselves dissatisfied
with the treatment accorded them by
the plantation managements or on ac-
count of the wages received.
The planters believe that the strik-
ers will return to their work in the
