Collecting Forced Loans.

WASHINGTON, July 11.-SeveraI
consultations were held at the state de-
partment today on the possible action
of the United States in connection with
the removal of William Pittman, the
American engineer, from Bluefelds
Bluff to Managua. Pittman had been
held for several weeks by the Madriz
forces as a prisoner of war. Acting
Secretary OF State Wilson has called in
his international law advisers to assist
him.
1t is believed that the department
viii be content with instructing United
States Consul Olivares at Managua to
insist on fair treatment for Pittman,
and to watch the procedure at Managua
with view to guarding against in
justice.
Representatives of Madriz here claim
that the Managua government was I'M
der no obligations to keep Pittman at
the Bluffs. They point out that as
early as March this government was
notified that Madriz had ordered his
subordinates not to act summarily with
Americans captured, but to send them
forthwith to Managua. This step was
taken, it was explained to insure the
satekeeping Of prisoners.
Mail reports received at the depart
ment tell of the efforts of Madriz to
raise money. Forced loans, it is said,
are being exacted. particularly from
those suspected Of hostility to the
Madriz government. The most fire.
quent procedure is reported to be to
make a demand for loan. one-half to
be paid within twenty-four hours and
the rest in three days, with an increase
of . per cent. if payment is not forth
coming.
Police or soldiers surround the house
of the victim and shut off all means
of securing food if the money is not
paid. In one instance it Is said the
loan demanded amounted to $4,000.
The Mexican ambassador was in
communication during the day with
Acting Secretary Wilson in relation to
press reports that the department was
surprised at the publication of the cor
rcspondence between President Dlaz
and President Taft concerning the
Nicaraguan situation. The ambassador
assured Wilson that Secretary Knox
had made it clear to him that after
the substance Of the letters had been
published in the United States there
would be no objection to the publica-
ton Of the letters, which, accordingly,
were given to the press of Mexico City.

KINGS WORKING
FOR UNCLE SAM
Postal Superintendent Carr Has
Royal Blood Among His
Many Employees.

Down in Samoa there are some post
masters and assistant postmasters who
are above the ordinary type of mortals.
In Samoa Uncle Sam uses ex-kings and
high chiefs to sort mail. At Tau. Ma
nua. the postmaster for long time was
Tuimanua, king who was defeated in
war by his rival Mataafa. He retired
to Tau where Uncle Sam made him
postmaster. and his signature is one of
the priced possessions in a pigeonhole
of Superintendent Cars desk. But
Taimanua is dead and one of his sure
ties became postmaster He is Tufela,
a native high chief, but a man who
neither speaks, reads or writes English.
For all these reasons Superintendent
Carr has torn his hair, for he has been
unable to get proper returns from Tau
He has written. threatened, beseeched,

The flow of water is steadily in
creasing owing to the gradual sluicing
of mud from the bottom of the tun-

that water was delivered on July Is

water from the company.
Yesterday the flow of water passing
the main weir at Kukuihaele was
IS. 900 gallons and the volume is in
creasing daily as the mud is sluiced out
into the main weir from which it is
carried off in a waste pipe. The com
pany is under contract to deliver 30

son states that when the mud sluicing
IS finished the 3O,000,000 gallons will
be on tap.

now expressing the fear that Edwin
Trimmer. the American consul at Cape
Gracias a dos, Nicara qua. has been as
sassinated by the sympathizers of Doc
tor Madriz. No word has been receiv-
ed for some time directly from Consul
Trimmer and there has been no atten-
ton paid by him to official messages
sent to him. His silence and the known
bitter hostility that exists among the
Madriz supporters towards Americans
form the grounds for the suspicious of
foul play of the state department.

CRIPPLED BOY

Young Orator Creates a Sensa-

Kakaako Section.
PROHIBITION WAVE RISING

PROHIBITION WAVE RISING

Putting himself up against the might
of the liquor interests, crippled Ha-
waiian boy last night delivered an ora
ton to the voters of Kakaako on the
necessity for prohibition for Hawaii
that impressed the great gathering in
and around the Kakaako Mission. This
boy, who appeared unannounced and
who tinidly asked to be allowed to say
a few words, created with his impas-
stoned words and plain logic a veritable
sensation, being cheered and cheered
again and urged to continue by those
who listened. His was the speech of
the prohibition campaign and the hit
Of the big meeting.
The young orator, who gives his name
as Henry L. B. kekahuna, spoke for
several minutes, going into the various
phases Of the antisal0On campaign and
being unspariug IN his condemnation of
the traffic that has brought 50 much
misery to the Hawaiians. He made his
address in English and carried his hear
ers along with him on his flood of
eloquence.
Last night 5 meeting in Kakaako was
one of the biggest of the campaign, so
big that the word was passed around
among the liquor sellers, who hurried IN
and skirted the crowd in their automo-
bies, taking stock of the situation de-
veloping Ill what they considered one
of their strongholds, From appearances,
the gathering and the enthusiasm dis
played was as alarming to the dealers
in booze as it was encouraging to the
prohibition wo1 kers.
