GRACE NAMES
MAAU'S SLAYER
Indicted Negro Confesses His
Share in Midnight Tragedy
on Reservation.
SAYS DAVID KEA is THE MAN
Revolver of informant Was Put
to Deadly Use by Slayer
of the Watchman.
SAYS DAVID KEA is THE MAN

David Kea, according to the confes-
sion of Anderson Grace, is the muir
derer of the Puuloa Waterman, Mahu,
And by his confession, wrung from him
by the federal authorities, Grace is an
accessory both before and after the
fact and equally guilty with the man
he accuses of the actual deed.
This sensational development in the
proceedings subsequent to the murder
of Mahu puts the case on an entirely
new basis, and while it was before
doubtful, the authorities have now
something definite to work from in
their Investigations.
United States Marshal Hendry and
Chief McDufiie of the detective force
went to Puuloa yesterday, taking the
negro with them and the latter pointed
out to them the man he had named as
! the murderer. Kea was at once taken
into custody and brought to the city.
The confession of Grace was the re
| suit of patient research on the part OF
the Investigators, the results of which
when presented to him, convinced hin
that it would be better to come Out
with the story and save himself.
This story, as far as given out yes
terday, is to the effect that Kea ex
pressed a desire to kill Mahu and TOLD
Grace that he would do so. Grace len
him his revolver for the purpose an'
the murder was in reality committe;
with the negro's weapon. Grace knew
that the deed had been done and hi
silence heretofore has been an attemp
to save his partner in guilt from tn
hands of the officers, although the part
ner was sacrificed quickly enough whel
the net was drawn around Grace.
The crime is now over three week
old, Grace having been arrested o
the day when the murdered man wa
found, his head shattered and his bod
bullet et-ridden, in the grass near th
bunk house. The authorities believe
from the first that Grace was tho ma
who committed the deed and the il
formation possessed by them and whic
led them to believe so, has prove
nearly correct.
United States District Attorne
Breckons had sensational intervie
with the indicted negro yesterday 9,
, ternoon in his Office and it was at ths
,, time that the confession was wrun
, from the latter.

WHY SAKE IS
A STILL WINE
Supreme Court Of United States
Says 1t Is Because 1t Al
ways Has Been.

Whether sake is a wine or a brew is
question which, it appears. was not
considered at all on its merits by the
Supreme Court of the United States in
rendering the recent decision which
was adverse to the importers. The
court seems simply to have based its
ruling on the fact that sake has always
been considered distilled liquor and
therefore it must be a distilled liquor,
no matter what the method of it's manu-
facture or the material from which it
is made.
The matter, it will be remembered,
was the case of Komada g. Co. versus
the United States, writ of certiorari
to the United States Court of Appeals
for the Ninth Circuit The question in
volved was the proper classification of
Japanese beverage known as sake.
The petitioner claimed it is beer while
the customs authorities claimed it to be
still wine, on account of the fact that
it contains more than fourteen per cent
of absolute alcohol The petitioner
claimed it was dutiable, either as an
unenumerated article, at twenty pei
cent ad valorem, or as beer at twenty
cents a gallon, while the customs peo
pie claimed it should pay duty of fifty
cents gallon.
The court, however, as stated above
seems not to have made any attempt to
| find out just what the beverage really
| is, but to have classified it as a Still
wine simply for the reason that it had
+, been so classified before. In its opinion
the court says:
"Thus it appears that prior to 1s94
sake was classified by similitude to dis
titled liquor, and then on a protest by
an importer it was classified by simili
tude to still wine, and that ruling hai
been followed from that time to tn,
present, receiving in the mean time a
least a qualified approval by congress
1t was accepted without challenge unit
1902. Then, protest against it hav
ing been overruled, it remained unchal
lenged for another year. After this
and in the latest tariff act, congress
has in terms put sake in the categor.
of still wines.
"Under these circumstances we thinl
the intent of congress in respect to tn
/ classification of sake is clearly mani
tested, and the judgment of the circui
court of appeals is affirmed"

Seine Has Now Gone Down Four
Feet and All Danger
Is Passed.
DAMAGE HAS BEEN ENORMOUS
Work of Searching Out and Bury
ing the Dead Is Now Well
Under Way.

PARIS, February 2.-The swollen
waters of the Seine have fallen four
feet, exposing in many of the city
streets the damage done to buildings,
sewers and pavements by the torrent
during the past week. While it is too
early as yet for the authorities to make
any definite examinations, it is regarded
as certain that the estimated damage
rlaced at two hundred millions of dol
lars will be exceeded when the final
toll is taken.
The work of caring for the refugees
has assumed tremendous proportions,
taxing the energies of the army Off
Gals in charge. Yesterday an army of
quarter of million people, from the
flooded districts of the city and from
the neighboring country, fed from the
many days will elapse before the bread
line grows shorter.
Throughout the ruined district the
work of seeking out and burying the
head is being carried on as expeditions
ly as possible and every effort is being
bent to prevent the outbreak of an cpl
| demic
Outside assistance, in the form of
money and supplies, is pouring in, much
coming from foreign countries.
The authorities believe they have the
situation well in hand now. The sum-
mary execution of looters at the hands
of the mob has struck terror into the
hearts of the apaches and the criminal
element is keeping quiet.

SOME MORE ABOUT OUR
INSULAR POSSESSIONS

Mainland papers are busy discussing
the efforts of the prohibitionists to
close up Hawal with greater or lesser
intelligence, according to the political
erudition of the editorial writers. The
following are recent specimens:
Prohibition for the far off Pacific
Islands of Hawaii is provided for in
bill introduced in the senate this
afternoon by Senator Curtis, of Kan
sas. The measure gladdened the hearts
of the prohibitionists, who have been
urging it, some of whom are charged
by their opponents with being more
anxious for prohibition in Hawaii than
they are nearer home. Senator Curtis ,
measure permits the importation of
liquor into the Islands and allows it to
be served in private homes to guests.
1t forbids the open sale.
"Senator Depew added to prohibition
literature this afternoon by offering to
be printed the testimony taken before
the committee on Pacific Islands and
Porto Rico in connection with prohibi-
tion. Members of congress have been
deluged with letters from Hawaii,
many of them in the native language. "

SHERMAN is DEVELOPING
INTO CLEVER PAClFIER
Is Given Credit for Bringing
Harmony Into Warning
Camps.
By Ernest q. walker.
(Mail special to The Advertiser

(Mail Special to The Advertiser.)
WASHINGTON, January 17.-Vice
President Sherman is gaining great
prestige in Washington as a political
pacificator and adviser of the factions.
He is credited with no small influence
in having brought about a better un-
derstanding between the house regulars
and insurgents a few days ago, when
everything in that branch of congress
seemed going to the bad. He advised
with the President and with cabinet
officers freely while that crisis was
most acute, having been a frequent
caller at the White House offices while
the negotiations were in progress.
Few men enjoy the Presidents con-
| fdence more on political matters. The
Vice President is in a position to dis
cuss politics with great frankness. He
understands congress. He has the con-
fdence of the Speaker, whose right hand
man he was in the house for a number
of years. 1t was the Speaker, in fact,
who brought Mr.. Sherman IS nomination
on the ticket with Taft about at the
Chicago convention. AS the Vice Presi'
dent was big official in the Repub'
/ lican congressional committee for a
long time and was chairman thereof
when he was nominated for Vice Presi-
dent, he is very familiar with congress
sional politics.
These and other political experiences
give the Vice President a standing In
party councils which none of his prede
cessors. certainly in recent years, have
enjoyed. II is widely recognized that

ADM|RALs CALL
FORMALLY ON
THE GOVERNOR

Admiral Sebree, commander of the
Pacific fleet, and Admiral Barry, com
mander of the second division of the
armored cruiser squadron, accompanied
by the captains of the "Big Eight, -
paid an official call on Governor Frear
yesterday morning. The admirals and
captains were accompanied by their
aids and it was an imposing process
sion of epaulettes and gold lace that
ascended the capitol steps.
Governor Frear received his visitors
in the throne room, and, except for the
fact that the chief executive was
garbed in the sober fashion of the
times, the reception in many respects
greatly resembled the receptions of the
good old days when gold lace and
epaulettes were more common than
they are nowadays.
The visitors, of course, were not
strangers to the place, all of then
having called on the present Governor
on previous occasions, But this wal
the first time that they had been re
ceived in state in the throne room.
This morning Governor Frear will
take the two admirals and such of tn
captains as can get away on an auto
mobile trip around the island A stol
will be made at Haleiwa for luncheon
and the party will return to the cit.
this evening.

ADMIRALS CALL ON GOVERNOR
(From wednesoay-s Advertiser.)

The vessels of the Pacific feet are
coaling more leisurely than during their
visit here last September and instead
of i've vessels working together as was
then the case, only two coaled yes
terday and it is hardly probable that
more than that will do so at any one
time hereafter.
Two of the cruisers, the Tennessee
and Maryland, the former being on the
Eva side of the naval wharf and the
other on the Waikiki, worked yesterday
and the South Dakota and West Vir-
ginia, which are at present tied to the
Alakea street wharf may take their
places today OF else take on coal where
they are.
The Washington is still tied up ia
The quarantine wharf and it is probable
that her BOYS will be unable to obtain
shore liberty during the present stay in
rort. They did not appear to be work
ing very hard, but most were lined W
on the side of the vessel watching theil
more fortunate companions going about
their regular duties preparatory to go
ing ashore, The other three cruisers art
still outside the reef.
Admiral Sebree and his staff in
spected the South Dakota during the af
ternoon, and the men of that vesse
were busy all morning fixing up, II
preparation for his visit.
In the morning the two admirals an'
their staffs and the captains wer'
formally received in the throne room o
.he Capitol by Governor Frear and tn
usual courtesies exchanged, after whicl
The officers returned to their vessels.
A squad of men on the South Da
kota were vaceinated during the after
noon, number more having gon
through this operation several week
ago. :,
The Maryland will go to the Hack
field wharf after finishing coaling an
probably change her berth some tim
Today. The West Virginia, now at tn
Alakea wharf, will go to the ocean,

as soon as she finishes her coaling.
