RECOVERING OF
BODIES BEGUN
Some Poor Human Fragments
Taken from Superstructure
Of the Maine.

Havana, June 19.--With the first dis
covcry this morning of some poor hu-
man fragments, the work of exploring
the hull of the Maine for the primary
purpose of recovering and giving hon
orable sepulchrc to the remains of her
crow was at last begun after many
weary months of preliminary work.
While workmen were clearing the
spar deck between the after and en-
CINE room superstructure near the af-
ter port side turret they found bones
Of a right foot enclosed in the ragged
remnants of shoe, and near by the
bones of a fore arm. The hand was
missing. Soon after this they came
upon the bones of another fore arm.
All were blackcned possibly from fire.
and deeply encrusted with n coral
growth.
None of the remains offered hope
Of identification, cxcept that the shoe
suggested that the wearcr probably
was either an officer a mess attendant
dant or a member of the marine guard,

habitually going barefoot.
A search of the spar deck and the
officers quarters superstructure re-
suited in the discovery of paper COW

Corelli in which the owners name on

At Least 5000 Shake Hand of

Reception.
THREE TIMES AS MANY WATCH

Taft in Line All the
Evening.

Washington, June 1e.-The silver we'd
ding celebration of the President and
Mrs. Taft. tho second that has been held
IN tbe White House, came to an end
tonight with the reception on the White
House lawn. Invitations had been sent
to close to 1900 persons and it Is csti-
mated that at least 5000 persons SHOOK
hands with ,he President.
Never in the history of the nation has
such function been held in Washing
ton. The diplomatic corps. the Supreme
Court, Congress. all departments of the
government, the men who are high in
political affairs of the country. the army,
the navy and almost every walk in
life were represented. The cool, clear
night that made 4 reception in the open
air possible, prevented the crush that
the White House for days had been afraid
of ana made the reception not only bril-
liant and unusual, but delightful in
every respect.
Possibly 10000 people crowded about
| the iron fence that surrounds the
grounds and looked longnglv at the
electric display. the splashing foun-
| tain ana the gay throng within. Wash
| ington seldom gets excited about any
! thing. but tonight it showed its in
terest in the anniversary of Mr.. and
Mrs Taft in unmistakable fashion.

lines to where the President. his face

The reception was just as informal
as the President could make II. Those
who could waited in line for hours to
shake hands, but many sought the

GOOD PROSPECTS
FOR REAL ESTATE

Last week was a quiet one in real
estate circles, though one or two of
the dealers did fair business. Most
of the lots now being sold, however,
are in the new districts where there
has been so great activity for the
past year or two.
One big real estate company that is
selling lots in one of these suburban
districts stated last Saturday that the
quietness that has characterized real
estate matters in older residential
districts has not affected his company.
In fact, he said, he had no ground for
complaint whatever, the demand for
these new lots being steady one and
many of them being disposed Of
Most of the real estate men say that
they look forward to good business
during the winter months. They ex-
pect that things will open up as soon
as the tourists begin to arrive in the
large numbers that are predicted,

SHIPPING NOTES

Three Days in Honolulu Not Enough.
Captain A. NJ. Davidson of the relia-
BILE British steamship Belle of Ire
land, which arrived here yesterday aft
,ernoon from Newcastle, says three
days in Honolulu is not enough. He
has friends here and he would much
prefer remaining in this attractive
city a week or so. He prefers three
weeks. not of the Eleanor Glyn va
riety. of course, to three days, when
there is such an opportunity of being
in a pleasant port like this. But the
Belle of Ireland must get away in
three days to dump most of her New
castle coal cargo at Port Allen, Kauai.
The Belle will leave 1900 tons here
and the rest of her almost 5000 tons
goes to the Garden Isle.
The Belle of Ireland, by the way,
has a cricket team aboard and the
men of the ship would like to be here
long enough to show folks ashore what
they can do. The crew of the Belle
of Ireland is white throughout, and a
jolly, good crew it is, too. Captain
Davidson is an entertaining man of
interesting experience and can spin
many a scientific yarn gathered
through his intimate acquaintance
with the ocean.
Moving Isle Meets Collier.
He was much surprised, arriving
yesterday, to behold on the waterfront
huge piles of slaughtered banana trees
and he watched with much curiosity
this morning while men tumbled over
each other to load the rubbish aboard
scows for dumping at sea- This eX-
planned, then, why it was that the
Belle of Ireland had met with what at
first appeared to be a moving island
to the south ard yesterday morning. 1t
was very small, probably not more
than few hundred square yards, but
the first glimpse, as may be imagined,

JUDGE clemens
CONTINUED from Page One.)

have presented serious and difficult
problem.
Attorney Ozawa noted an exception
to the ruling, but it is hardly probable
that in so unimportant a case as that
of Kuichimotohara an appeal will be
taken to the Circuit court of the
Ninth circuit at San Francisco.
The question of jurisdiction will,
however in all probability be raised
pro forma in the Mcmahon case by
Attorney Lorrin Andrews. OF course,
it will again be ruled that the court
has jurisdiction, and on the ruling in
that case it is not improbable that an
appeal will be taken. The case may
possibly go to the Supreme Court of
the United States provided funds for
so expensive an appeal can be raised.
All this, of course. if the jury should
find McMahon guilty. If he is de
clared innocent there can, naturally,
be no appeal.
Judge Clemens had lengthy writ
ten opinion giving his reasons for rul
ing as he did, but he did not read II
in court, contenting himself with stat
ing few of the more important rea
sons that influenced him. He stated
that he did not feel disposed to take
a narrow view of the term exclusive
| jurisdiction" and he believed it was
the intent of Congress to place under
the jurisdiction of the Federal court
such places as the military reserva
ton at Leilehua, where the offense
with which Northumberland is charged
is alleged to have taken place lie
said he realized that the question was
a very difficult one and he had con
suited numerous authorities before
finally making up his mind.
One decision that Influenced him
was that in a Wyoming case. AS a
curious coincidence, United States
Attorney Breckons, when practicina
in Wyoming, was attorney in that
case and the ruling then, as now, was
in his favor.
Upon the decision being rendered
the trial Of Kuichimotohara, accused
of assault with a weapon on the mill
tary reservation at Leilehua, was re
/ sumed.
The most important case of the ses
sion will be the Mcmahon case, which
follows closely after the case now on
trial. This will be hard and stub
bornly fought by both sides and some
of the testimony that it is expected
will be introduced will be sensational
in the extreme. The case will prob
ably go to trial this week

stirred particular attention, and the
Belle of Ireland was steered so as to
avoid the floating mass and at the
same time to pass it close enough to
identify it. Captain Davidson had
heard of floating islands of pumice and
what not, and he knows all about the
Sea of Sargasso, the Mecca of wrecks
and drift, but he was not prepared
for Honolulu to send out a section of
the city by way of a welcome to the
Belle of Ireland He could not imag-
inc how the bananas came there, and
K occurred to him that there might
have been a heavy wind storm which
had blown banana trees out to sea.
This morning it was all made clear to
him, and it was for him to laugh. He
naturally wonders what Honolulu will
cut down next.
