E. L. Scruggs, president of the Baptist
general convention of Illinois: Rev A,
w Williams, D. D., Zion Baptist

Carr of Mt. Pisgah Baptist church,

oath inst. for the purpose Of offering
their ofices TO reconcile the two fac

In a spirit of fairness and Chrisuxu
love for all, the aforesaid ministers,
after having interviewed the attorneys
for both sides, went from house to
house c9 both factions, praying for
guidance and advising methods Of ar
irving at reconciliation and reuniting.
Our Investigations revealed the fact
that Rev. Mr.. Broyles was irregularly,
unjustly and unchristianly ousted from
his pulpit, the meeting for that pur-
pose being called without proper au-

ROAD A BONANZA,
SAYS Mr.. HANLEY
Vice President of Southern Sees
Big Things for Tri- Cities
in New Service.
REGULAR TRAFFIC JUNE IS
Line Will Bring Others Into Closer
Connections With Locality
Equipment Ordered.

]. A. Hanley, vice president OF the
Rock Island Southern railway, spent
today in the city, though not on bust
ness connected with the road Mr..
Hanley is in charge of the traffic of
immensely pleased with the outlook
for his road. To an Argus representa-
tive he stated today that the first Rock
Island Southern train will come into
the city from Monmouth May 80 and
that regular steam traffic, both pas.
senger and freight, will commence
June Is. It has not been decided how
many trains will be run each day, as
the amount of business which will
have to be handled will first have to
be learned ( Mr. Hanley firmly be-
lieves that the road is going to prove
a bonanza both for its owners and
for the three cities as well. He says
that only man who has been inter
ested in railroad traffic for years can
appreciate the true worth Of the new
road.
Opens New Field.
In addition TO opening up a new field
for passenger and freight service 1t
will give the tri-cities some new rail-
road connections which will be of con-
siderable worth. The Santa Fe and
the Iowa Central, neither OF which
mean anything to this vicinity now,
will have local connections furnished
by the new road at Galesburg. At
present the roads now running through
here deliver considerable quantities of
hut a.
distances so far away as to almost
discourage such shipments. When the
Southern is in operation it will mean
a haul of some 65 miles to get the
freight on the direct line to its des-
tination and the result will be more
shipping which will greatly benefit
both the roads and the shippers.
says Equipment Is Fine.
Mr.. Hanley hesitated about making
any statements regarding when the
electrical equipment Of the road will
be put into service. He admitted that
there was reason to believe the first
electric. trains would be put into oper-
alton in July, but said that was mat
ter for the operation department TO
decide and not for him. He said, how
ever, that the public OF this city might
rest assured that it was going to have
a road WITH as fine an electrical equip
ment as any in the land. He was en-
thusiastic about the excellence of the
coaches, which he said were
as good as Pullmans on
the steam roads, and about the eloctri-
cal engines which are to haul them.
AS to the electrical coaches he said
he knew little other than that they
were the best money could buy.
Mr.. Hanley is we'll known in this
city. as he made his home here for
FIVE years from 1881 to 1886. At that
time he was local freight agent for
the Rock Island road Since then he
has held positions with the Kansas
City Southern and the Santa Fe. He
gave up the latter position in order
to assume the vice presidency of the
Rock Island Southern and to become
general traffic manager for the road.
He leaves here this evening for his
headquarters in Chicago.

NEW DEVELOPMENT
IN REVENUE CASE
KuhiO for Goetz With Wideman
for the Position of
Deputy.

A new angle to the fight for the in.
ternal revenue collectorship was form.
ed yesterday when it was rumored that
Prince Kuhio had switched candidates
and that he was willing to endorse w.
II. Goetz for the collectorship, if Carl
Wideman was appointed deputy in
case Goetz received the appointment.
This does not simplify the situation
to any extent as the territorial Re-
publican executive committee has en-
dorsed John Rothwell for the collector
ship, and has cabled its decision to
Washington. The Governor is under
stood to be partial to Rothwell, while
several officials and others in private
life, who have wires leading into Wash.
ington are still pulling them for Goetz.
Kuhio was first for Wideman but
eliminates him from the race for the
chief Office of that bureau and is will
ing, according to rumOr, to put him
in for second place. Such a move would
displace Ralph tombstone, the incum-
bent under Collector Drake.
Again there is w. p. Fennell, in
spector of the board of liquor license
commissioners, whose canvass for the
job brought him telegram from julius
Kahn, the California congressman. The
latter's telegram was to Neal Power
at Washington, and was dated May 9,
1910. in which the Californian said he
would endorse Fennell for the appoint
ment. Fennell is still in the race and
will pull what wires he has.

HONOLULU THE
BEST OF ALL
Navy Pay Clerk Impressed With
Paradise and Comes to
Stay.

G. G. Schweizer, formerly a paymas.
ter's clerk in the United States Navy,
who made the trip in the battleship
Oregon from Puget Sound through the
Strait of Magellan to Cuba, where the
warship participated in the Battle of
Santiago, arrived in Honolulu last week
to make his home here, having recently
retired from naval life.
Ever since he first passed through
Honolulu, in 1890, he has had desire
to live here, and when he found himself
out of the navy he yielded to the early
desire to live the rest of his life in the
Paradise of the Pacific
When the Atlantic fleet was here Mr..
Schweizer was attached to the Georgia,
and when the Pacific fleet was here,
about year ago, he was clerk to the
fleet paymaster.
"No place in the world ever made
such an impression upon me as Homo
lulu, said Mr.. Schweizer, "and am
glad to be here now to make my home. :"

NEW ROUTE TO
FORT SHAFTER
Military Authorities Want School
Street Opened to the
Reservation.
(TrOm Thursdays Advertisor.J

(From Thursdays Advertiser.)
With an eye to tine necessity of hav.
ing more than one general route leading
into Fort Shafter the military authori.
ties are planning the additional sec.
lions to the post to raise it eventually
to regimental size, as against its pres
ent garrison capacity for only batta.
lion, and figure on having School street
extended and opened up to tap the Ka.
hauiki reservation.
AT present King street is the only
direct avenue leading to the post from
the city. Makai of King street near
the reservation are coast lndentations
which form part of Kalih bay, and
while it is not impracticable to open
thOroughfare below King emerging
at the post, nothing is gained in that
section
The extension of streets on the mauka
side of King street, however, will be
of Inestimable value to the military au-
thorities, as it will give them an oppor-
tunty to make use of the upper Sec
tions of the city, for marching, leaving
the lower routes for general traffic.
Should the garrison need to be sent
to the Nuuanu Pail, route mauka of
King street would be preferable, saw
ing time and shortening up the dis
lance. On the other hand such thor
oughfare opening the reservation to the
upper section of the city, would make
it a popular driveway to the military
post.
So far the Washington authorities
have not made known the plans for the
extensions of Fort Shafter, but they are
being developed, and the site has been
selected, surveyed and plated on the
maps. This site is the plateau War
kiki of the present post, a deep gully
lying between the two. Camp Billiard,
where the militia officers were encamped
for instruction recently, was pitched on
the proposed extension site.
Battleships Not Coming.
The statement that battleships are
coming to Hawaii to test coal or for
and other purpose this winter, is not
borne out by confirmation from the
local federal officers. First of all, the
Maryland and West Virginia and the
vessels making up the Pacific fleet are
not batteshIps They are mere cruisers
and can never attain to the dignity
of the battleship class. Several weeks
ago it was rumored that part of the
Pacific fleet would come here for maneu-
vers this winter. This was denied at
the naval station at the time, and later
another denial was made. 1t was stat
ed that if any of the vessels came
this way at all, they would not arrive
until spring.

CHINESE AND CONSUL
IN A FINISH FIGHT
Monster Mass Meeting Tonight
to Demand His Recall and
Protest.
(From Thursdays Advertiser.)

(FrOm Thursdays Advertiser
Big red posters were plastered over
Chinatown yesterday, and each had its
group of interested Orientals decipher-
ing its meaning, and this is what they
read:
"Meeting called for Aala Park,
Thursday evening at six O'Clock, when
all Chinese residents will be asked to
join in protest against Chinese consul IS
Misrepresentation of Hawaii Chinese as
revolutionists; probable Endorsement of
United Chinese Society's demand for
consul's recall.'
This means that the war is on to a
finish between the conservative and
progressive Cinnamon of the Islands,
with the latter apparently in over
whelming force and lined up against
the official representative of their home
government stationed in Honolulu.
1t is expected that the meeting to-
night will be a monster one, at which
resolutions condemning Fhe course of
action of the consul, LANG Kwo Wing,
in reporting to the home government
that certain prominent Chinese mer-
chants in this city were revolutionists,
thus endangering their families in
China and preventing those here from
ever returning to their native land.
1t is also more than likely that the
meeting will indorse the petition of the
United Chinese Society for the recall
of the consul Both the petition and
the resolutions will be forwarded to the
Chinese minister at Washington, Chang
Yin Tang, and to the foreign office at
Picking.
The officers of the meeting selected
are Chong PAX Sun, chairman; Charley
Lai Young, English secretary, and Hsu
Jack Sun, Chinese secretary.
1t was rumored in the Chinese quar-
ter yesterday that the consul has re-
ported the names of about a hundred
more local Chinese merchants as being
revolutionists; also that he has tried to
forestall any effect of the petition for
his recall or the expected resolutions of
protest by cabling to Picking and TO
Minister Chang at Washington.
