RIOS SWEETHEART,
NOT HUSBAND,

Yesterday morning Tanaka, the hus
band of Rio, the japanese woman
murdered on Wednesday night in the
servant house on Judge Lindsay's
premises, Manoa, turned up at his
place of employment at the Hendricks ;
home in Punahou and was Mortified to
learn from his employer that his wife
is dead.
1t was learned by the police yester-
day that the murderer is Kanagawa,
an intimate friend of Rio. Kanagawa
has been employed at various places in
the last FIVE or six months, and for
about eight days a couple of weeks ago
NE was employed by DR.. Baldwin. He
was afterwards employed at the Moana
Hotel, and has worked in various
hotels and restaurants.
Hospital surgeons yesterday sewed
up the ugly Qrifiee in his windpipe
which had been severed with suicidal
intent, following the murder of Rio,
and he was able to talk. He said he
had known Rio intimately for about a
year and that she had expressed a de-
/ sire to die, and so they decided to die
together That was why he killed her
and then tried 10 kin himself.
The police laugh at this story. and
the very fact that Rio called TO Judge
Lindsay for help while Kanagawa was
in the act of numbering her. offsets Ka

covering from his wounds. He is under
strict surveillance by police guards. who

Insured for s15Oo-origin of the Blaze
is Mystery.

4 vacant house near the corner of
King street and Waipilapilo road, the
property Of George Raupp, was burned
to the ground shortly after midnight

a mystery Joe Francis, a former ten
ant, moved out yesterday and no one
was supposed to be on the premises.
An insurance Of $500 on the house
was in force.
The fire had big start before the
department arrived, and the efforts Of
the ffremen were devoted principally
TO saving an occupied house next door
TO the burning one.

FIRST RUSSIAN
LABORERS
ARRIVE
Over Two Hundred Splendid
People Respond to the
Invitation.
MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN
One Anarchist Slipped In, but He
Will Not Be Allowed
to Remain.

; Happy in the knowledge that they
away from the despotism and poverty
of the Gar s realm in Siberia, one hum
dred and fifty Russian men and women,
caring for large number of boys and
girls, arrived yesterday at Honolulu on
the Pacific Mail steamship Siberia after
a long trip from Hardin. They were
big, husky, strong men and hardy,
clear-eyed peasant women, hailing orig
inaIly from the provinces of Poltava,
Kieff, and Volga, in Little Russia. At
tired in odd-looking costumes, the new
immigrants made a picturesque gath
ering as they filed down the gangplank
from the Siberia to the deck of the
barge Pioneer, on which they were con-
veyed to the Bishop wharf, and thence
to the immigrant station.
The immigrants came here in charge
of A. L. G. Atkinson, special agent of
the territorial board of immigration,
and A. w. Perelstrous, the Russian
through whose statements and personal
activity the board decided to give Rus
sian peasants an opportunity to come to
Hawaii.
No Promises Made.
~ No promises were made to the Rus
SLAMS in their little villages. None were
necessary, for when it was known that,
an agent from Hawaii was in their
midst to tell them of opportunities in
the Islands, they fairly besieged Atkin-
son to be permitted to join the band.
Thus only the pick of the families of
the district about the town of Alexieff.
where these people had colonized from
Russian provinces, were selected to
make up the fifty families.
Prayed for a Chance.
Women and raen fell upon their knees
before the agents and made fearful
pleas to be allowed to journey to the
middle Of the Pacific. They besought
him in all the dramatic fervor of their
simple lives to take them away from
land which was giving them only the
living of the poverty-stricken.
Men and women equal to those al
ready chosen. and in some cases better.
had to be turned away, and they re-
turned to their homes heartbroken.
No promises were needed to bring
these hardy peasants, these sons and
daughters of the soil, whose fathers
and grandfathers and generations be-
fore have never known other work than
the tilling of the soil and the bearing

HUMAN ROULETTE
WHEEL. MANAGER
QUIT IN HURRY

Harry Werner. the "Human Roulette
Wheel" man has gone TO the Coast,
and lot of creditors gazed mournfully
into the Hotel street amusement palace,
which Werner opened up only few
weeks ago, wondering where they were
to realize ON their investments. Werner
left on the Alameda but he failed to
notify his hackers and creditors that
he was going. In fact many of them
were on the Alameda wharf when the
liner sailed thinking they might see
him but he was not in sight.
There are many who may as well say
goodbye TO what is OWING them. The
Hawaiian singing boys sang thirty dol
lars worth of native airs and received
no pay. On Tuesday they visited the
sheriff and told him that Werner would
not pay them They were told to go
to a lawyer, but the next day Werner
had started for the Coast. Lucas Bros.
are interested to some extent for they
built the wheel and made the building
alterations. They were also to restore
the building to its former appearance
after the roulette business went out,
and that means more good money after
bad. A sign painter hash t been paid
for his brush work.
The Won Hamm- Young company is
out on the machinery it supplied to
make the wheel go round, but they can
get the machinery back. The electric
light company has not been paid for

and the newspapers have not been paid
for telling the public that the wheel
was great attraction. Something ike
a thousand dollars is involved in Wer-
ner s Indebtedness.

KING GUSTAV CARRIES
COAL FROM LIGHTER

Stockholm. Dec. 5-Ilng Gustav
ON Saturday inaugurated new dcpar-
ture for sovereiGns. Disguised as u
stevedorc he spent most of the day
carrying sacks of coal from a lighter.
In an interview after 1t was all over,
the king said that was only the be-
ginning. He intended TO mix with all
classes OF laborers. so that he might
ascertain their opinions and wishes.
Already, he added he had obtained
many valuable hints from men with
whom he worked.
The determination OF King Gustav
10 learn of the condition OF the work
ingmen by minSling with them and
taking part in their Iabors has result
ed from the recent great tieup of the
business life OF the country by a gen.
eral strike. King Gustav interviewed
last August in an endeavor TO obtain
compromise, but without avail The
strike continued for months and in
volycd thousands OF men.
Eventually arbitration was under
taken by the Swedish government.
and in the interim many workmen re-
turned to their tasks. although the
number OF unemployed remained large.
King Gustav and other members of
the royal family contributed to a ma
tional fund raised to make loans to the
working classes. Conditions remain
such as to cause his majesty grave
anxiety,
The King found difficulty in ascer-
tanning the real facts. and in the last
week or two had made arrangements
to join various laborers at their work
in such a guise that they would not
recognize him.
