Driving.

The trial of Tom Quinn, who IS
charged with reckIessly running his
automobile into the machine of another
chauffeur named Davis some weeks ago
and driving the Davis machine through
the plate glass window of Levy's gro
Gerry store. was held in Judge Cooper 5
court before a jury yesterday, and at
SIXTEEN p. m. the jury returned q yer
dict Of guilty as charged.
The evidence Of the two sides to the
controversy was fatty contradictory.
The witnesses for the prosecution, the
principal Of whom was Davis, swore
that Quinn. who was driving at a reck-
less speed. smashed into the car Of
Davis and hurled it into the window.
Quinn and his witnesses swore that
Quinn didn't touch him. 1t was ad-
mitted by the defense that Quinn ran
his macbie pretty close to that Of Davis,
/ but it was claimed that he swerved to
the RIGHT and passed on without touching

NEW PROBLEM

Ultimate Disposition OF
Russians.
CAMP A PU BLIC MENACE.
Sanitary Conditions are Bad anU
Situation is Getting
Worse Daily.

The question Of what IS 10 be done
with the Russians now camped at lwi-
lei ; what is now engrossing the at
tcntiOu OF the Governor and several of
his Departments leads It is recognized
by the Territorial officials that the st
uation demand that something be
done, but the " tticulty appears to he
to find some Wy out Of the trouble.
Governor Frear stated yesterday af~
ternoou that ever since Monday the
Russian problem has been the subject
i serious cons deration. But aN to
whether or not he and those comforting
with him have as vet hit upon any line
Of action. he was anything but yoiuble.
Every question along that line was
yaded with the skill Of the trained
lawyer. and he eountered question with
question as f he had been born among
he rocky hills Of New England instead
Of in California.
yesterday morning Governor Frear
and Secretary Mott Smith visited The
iwiIei camp To- see for themselves the
conditions that exist there, 1t appears
| from their description that conditions
| have somewhat improved since Presi-

No reigning sovereign ever was given
greater reception than that given
here to Roosevelt today, is the way lie
Temps expresses it, and the French
press generally declare that Roosevelt's
tour of Europe and the receptions and
entertainments given to him by all ma
tions have no equal in history. Never
before, says lie Temps, rejecting the
tone of the French press generally, has
a traveller been given such ovations in
European capitals as Roosevelt has re-
c>ived.

The above is a part of the new policy
decided upon yesterday afternoon by
tbs board OF liquor license commission
ers. In other words, the liquor bust
ness for the coming fiscal wear IS to be
more closely held in hand than has been
tbe case heretofore.
The new policy of the board, as out
lined Yesterday, is as follows:
All retail and wholesale licenses for
the city of Honolulu must be confined
within the FIRE limits. This cuts out
Palsma, Kakaako and Kalihi; III which
districts there are now saloons.
No wholesale licenses will lie issued
for any part of the city and county out
side Of Honolulu proper. This provision
will shut out the practise of soliciting
orders throughout the country which is
low the custom Of some wholesale firms.
Ne more than one license Of any kind
will be issued to any firm, corporation
or individual.
The action decided upon by the liquor
commissioners is the most radical Of
any taken by any liquor board since
the organization of the commission, and
viii undoubtedly do much TO do away
with the evils Of the liquor trade as
today conducted. It is well known
that il is in the districts from which
the board proposes to exclude liquor
selling that many of the cheap grog-
genes now exist. the places where PEG
PIE are daily poisoned by cheap liquor.
AM it is also well known that the in
tent Of the liquor law IS constantly
Graded by wholesalers who, holding a
htease for one part of the county, do
business in other parts through the SO
heItatiOn of orders.
Also it is well known that several
hqnor firms hold more than one license
each, some Of the wholesalers owning
one or more saloons as we'll as their
Wholesale establishments.
The action of the board VIII put n
stop on July l to all these evils and
put the liquor business in position to
Dc more closely watched and held -
check. z
Alfred Castle has been appointed by
GoFernor Frear a member of the liquor
noard, taking the place of Willard
Brown, resigned, M Castle took his
seat with the board for the frs time
Yesterday.

Action Likely
Over Seizure
Nicaragua May Be Held for Capture
of American Vessels Off
Southern Coast.

WASHINGTON, April S.-The seizure Of
the Lark and Esfuerzo, the American
owned vessels which were captured re-
Gently on the east coast of Nicaragua by
parties claiming to be acting in the inter
ests of DR.. Madriz, is likely to form the
basis for claims against the N~icaraguan
government.
According to information received at the
State department these vessels when
seized were engaged in Legitimate coast
wise trade, distributing merchandise to
their owners branch depots on the coast.
There is now reason to believe that
the seizure was the wrongful act Of pri-
vate parties, for which Madriz denied all
responsibility and ordered their surrender
to the commander Of the United States
ship Paducah, who in turn will deliver
them TO the American consul at Bluefields.
The bark, when seized, was loaded to
sail for Bluefields with rubber and gold,
the property OF the owners, for transporta-
ton to the United states. The Esfuerzo
was loaded with gasoline and supplies for
it's owners mines. In both cases the car
goes were appropriated by the captors OF
the vessels. and although without direct
Information on the subject, the department
assumes the cargoes have not been re-
turned with the vessels.

BOARD FAILS TO AGREE
ON DRAINAGE DITCH
Owners Divided in Route New I'M
prOvement Is to Take, But
Otherwise Agreed.

The hearing held yesterday by the Board
OF County Supervisors in the matter of the
proposed establishment of the Honey Greek
Drainage district developed the fact that
while the owners of property affected were
practically unanimous as to the necessity
of the Improvement they were divided as
to the route the ditch should take, Over
fifty interested land owners were present
at the hearing, which was held in the south
court room of the county court house, as
the boards room was entirely inadequate to
accommodate the crowd. Several attorneys
representing different property owners were
in attendance.
The members Of the board, after spending
the entire day listening to the attorneys and
the property owners who favored one or
the other Of the suggested routes, failed to
reach any decision in the matter and de-
cided to hold another hearing on April q,
to which time the supervisors as a drainage
board adjourned.
The supervisors OF this county will meet
in joint session with the supervisors OF
Harrison county on April 20 to take up mat
ters in connection with the Harrison
Pottawattamie drainage district.
Mrs. r, M. Sprague, president; Mrs,
Emma Lucas and Miss Sporting of the
Woman's Christian association appeared be-
fore the board following the hearing in the
Honey Creek drainage matter with a COM
plant that the Edmundson Memorial hos
pital. the institution conducted by the
association, was not getting its proper pro-
portion of ounty cases. A few months ago
the Woman's Christian association sue
ceeded in inducing the supervisors to In
crease the amount paid by the county for
medical and surgical cases in which the
patients were county charges. TIL COM
mittee yesterday complained that since the
increase had been granted the Edmundson
hospital had not been getting its just pro-
portion OF the county cases and that nearly
all such cases had been sent to the other
hospitals. Before the increase was granted
nearly all county cases were sent, the COM
mittee said, to the hospital.
The members of the board assured the
committee that there was no intention on
its part 10 discriminate in favor of one
hospital against another and that it would
look into the matter. The city physician,
the members Of the board stated, had no
authority to send a patient for whose care
the county would be responsible to any hos,
pital without first securing authority from
either Dr.. Hanchett. the county physician,
or from George Miller, the overseer of the
