SEIZE WATCHES AND GEMS
Passenger on the Colon Acknowledges
He Is sup Tree

NEW YORK, July 9.--When the
steamship Colon, from Panama.|
reached her dock today two special
agents of the treasury department
were the first to board her.
Acting on secret information they
searched among the passengers until
they found one who answered to the
name of L. A. Wilkinson and inquired
If he had anything to declare for duty.
He had already acknowledged before
an acting deputy surveyor his bag
gage declaration, and when the two
keen-eyed agents began to question
him he failed to take warning and
answered:
ave brought only few personal
trifles with me-"
The two inspectors, without much
hesitation, evidently being confident
of their case, took three waches from
the pockets of the passenger, seized
two of the timepieces and returned
the third to Wilkinson.
In an envelope bearing his address
were a number of diamond stickpins-
Continuing their search, Wilson and
Yorke found six solitaire diamond
rings concealed in Wilkinson's gar
ments. When the diamonds were dis
closed Wilkinson laughed and re
marked, Gentlemen, am up tree

FOUNDATION
FOR BIG Guns

Forty thousand tons will be the
weight of each of the two great gun
stations to be established at Waikiki
on the United States government prop
erty. As Major Winslow expresse. it,
each station, as to weight, is like two
battleships resting one on top of the
other.
Tests are still being conducted and
minute observations as to the chara cter
of the foundations are being recorded
daily. Two piles have been driven
down through the uncertain strata of
coral and water and on each pile are
boxes of sand. Tests show that each
is slowly going lower. To complete this
novel test there will be more than the
usual delays, but as the determination
of the character of the foundation for
these mighty gun stations is of the first
and most important consideration, time
will be of the utmost value.
Were the gun stations to be built
without thorough determination of
the foundation the stations in time
might prove valueess. When Major
Winslow came here he understood the
strata to be of a certain character.
Preliminary tests made under his di.
rection showed differences and thorough
tests gave conclusive proof that the
foundation was uncertain, and therefore
the pile tests were made and will be
watched closely. This may mean de-
lay of two months or more, but the
delay will benefit Uncle Sam.
1t was for the reason that Major
Winslow wanted tests of the beach in
eluding the McCandless lot, that con.
demnation suit was brought to include
the McCandless property in the War
Department s holdings. Although the
matter has not been settled, Major Win.
slow, under the circumstances, assumed
the right to make tests on the Nc
Candies property as one of the gun
stations will be located partly at that
place. The old Along property belongs
to the United States and the prepara
tion work can go ahead there without
restriction.
The two guns for the stations win b'
l4-inch and as far as known by tn,
army engineer they are now being man
ufactured. These weapons are tn,
largest now being turned out by th'
United States.
The stations may be erected on foun
dations of piles.

WA|P|O GULCH
LEASES GIVEN UP

There was filed yesterday with
Registrar of Conveyances Merriam the
surrender of two leases by Leong Kau
Chew of property leased from Samuel
Parker. One of the leases is dated JAN
uary 1, 1901, and is of rice and taro
land in Waipio gulch, Hawaii, for
with the rental was $4,000 year. The
other was for other lands in Waipio
gulch, for which the rental was $500
year. In both cases the surrender
states that the lessee is unable to pay
the rent. AT the same time new leases
of the same property were fled to Lee
Poi For the $4,000 a year property
Lee Poi is to pay $4,000 year and for
the other $500.

The fact that the Mayor elect has
gone into the details of appointments so
as to include parkkeepers, poundmasters
and chairmen will come as surprise
to many. 1t is extremely probable that
while the Republican majority on the

BACHELORS DINNER

The Y. M. G. A. of Honolulu has al
ways observed the time .honored custom
OF serving a New Years dinner, open
10 any one who cared to drop in, but
owing to the cutting mp of the large
assembly hall into classrooms it was de-
cided that such a dinner would be i'm
possible this year. However, as a great
many members have requested it, the
social committee has decided to serve
dinner at six O'Clock on a much
smaller scale than usual in the social
hall. This dinner is planned especially
for those men who may happen to be
IN town on New Years Day and who
have no homes of their own. An excel
lent dinner will be served at 80 cents
plate, and program consisting of
music and short speeches is being pre-
pared. A fine time is promised every
one who comes, but as there will be ac-
commodations for only about fifty it
Will be necessary for those who wish to
attend to notify the secretary at once,
who will prepare souvenir place-cards.
All young men in town, whether they
are members of the Y. NJ. C. A. or not,
who want to have jolly good time on
New Years night, should make 1t a
point to see the secretary at once and
deposit his four bits.
