PAN7HEON MAY
LOSE LICENSE.
And Two PIug-UgIy Bruisers Nav
Go to Jail for Assault on
H. M. Ayres.

Joe Silva, proprietor Of the Pantheon
saloon which has for so long been .
place Of none too good repute. will
probably lose his license as a conse-
quence Of the disgraceful affair that
took place there on election night when
Jack NcFadden and EIwood Heine, the
two whose crooked work has put boxing
to the bad in Honolulu. assaulted and
beat up II. NJ. Ayres.
As soon as he read in The Advertiser
yesterday morning the account of the
trouble, Liquor License Commissioner
Craig hurried to Silva 5 place and
rather heatedly asked the proprietor
concerning the affair. Silva assumed a
look of injured innocence and excused
himself by a number of tiimsv and very
transparent excuses which, unfortunate.
~ for him, did not at all agree with the
truth of the matter.
License Inspector FenneIl also landed
with both feet on the man who runs
one of the worst booze Joints in Homo
lula, and Silva is correspondence terri
fed. To make matters worse for him.
Silva finds no support among the other
liquor dealers of the city. They all
realize that his place is a menace to
their own business and are quite willing
10 keep hands off and let the license
commissioners administer to Silva the
medicine he appears to deserve.
Silva's case will probably come up
before the commissioners at their next
meeting and it viii be surprising if
they do not adopt the only course that
seems TO be left open TO them and take
away his license.
Nor Is Silva the only one who is in
trouble as a result Of the assault on
Avres. Jack McFadden, whose work
has queered the prize fight game In
Honolulu, and Elwood Heine. another
pug of the same caliber, were arrested
yesterday on warrants sworn to by II.
NJ. Ayres. McFadden is charged with
using vulgar and profane language and
Heine with assault and battery.
The last time McFadden was up be
fore Judge Andrade. the magistrate told
him that next time he would send the
pIug-ugly to the reef to learn few
things Consequently. if McFadden is
convicted it viii probably mean a Jail
sentence for him. Heine can hardly ex-
pect to fare better.
But that viii not be ali for Me
Fadden It is understood that United
States District Attorney Breckons has
a few things on NcFadden and has
made the statement that the next time
the auburn haired bruiser made a crack
of any kind. he would find himself IN
the grasp Of the federal authorities with
serious punishment hanging over his
head So it appears that there Is good
ground for hope that Honolulu viii at
last get rid Of one or two of the gang
who have so long made Hotel street dis
agreeable and dangerous for unescorted
women.
The license board viii meet next Fri
dav afternoon at which time Joe Silva 8
