ACTIVE AND USEFUL
CAREER OF THE LATE
HENRY ?. BALDWIN

Hon. Henry Perrine Baldwin was
born at Lahaina, Maui, August 90, 1912,
his father Rev. Dwight Baldwin, Md,
having been one of the early mission
aries at that place, arriving here on the,
ship "New England" on June z, 1881.
Lahaina was at that time the most inn
portant place in the kingdom, being the
capital and the rendezvous for the
whaling feet of the Pacific. Here the
elder Baldwin engaged in preaching the
gospel and also was government physi-
clan for the islands of Maui, Molokai
and Lanai, giving especially valuable
service in the great smallpox epidemic
of 1858. In later years Reverend
Baldwin came to Honolulu and was as
sociated with Rev. B. w. Parker in
conducting the Theological School, re-.
firing in 1877. His death occurred in
this city on January 8, 1886, his wife
having preceded him in death on octo.

Resolution in Congress
Aimed at Financial

RESTRAINT OF TRADE
Line Of Steamers Owned
by Government for
Pacific.

WASHINGTON, July 9.--Another
congressional investigation now threat
ems to startle the land, one which may
well throw in the shade the sensations
of the steel and sugar trust probings,
already in progress.
Representative G. A. Lindbergh, of
Minnesota, yesterday offered resolu-
tiop calling for the investigation Of
the banker's Combine !" as in restraint
of trade.
For Steamship Line.
Representative W. D. Stephens, Of
Southern California, introduced bill
calling for the appropriation of six
millions Of dollars for the operation Of
government line Of steamships along
the Pacific Coast and through the Pa
mama Canal, when 1t is completed.
1t is provided that until such time
as the canal is opened for traffic, the
Pacific Coast line shall operate in con-
junction with government lines ON the
Atlantic.

Public Services.

Besides being very actively engaged
in business, Mr.. Baldwin took time to
participate in public affairs, as a citi-
zen and as an official He was a mem
Der of the house of mobiles in 1873
and again in 1890. In 1900 he was
elected senator, being again chosen in
1908. He was frequently sent as a
delegate from Maui to the territorial
Republican conventions and his advice
was sought by the leaders of the party
upon many occasions.
In 1902, when reports of Governor
Dole's intended retirement were in
circulation, there was a strong senti-
ment favoring Mr.. Baldwin as his sue
eessor, but to this he would not listen,
claiming that his business interests
were too extensive to spare the time
entirely for the public service. Presi-
dent Roosevelt was in communication
with the senator frequently during his
administration concerning political
matters in the Islands.
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1911-07-11

his great holdings had made him null
ti-millionaire.
AS a pioneer in the construction of
big irrigation bitches, Mr.. Baldwin laid
the foundation for his great fortune.
In the latter 70's he caused other plan
ters to gasp by his daring ventures in
ditch construction, risliing sums of
money that were considered very large
in those days in enterprises that were
believed to be impossible to consum-
mate because of the great gulches and
ravines that had to be crossed in the
irrigation projects. One of these al
most insurmountable tasks-the Hama
kua-Haiku ditch-brought out the char
acteristics of pluck and determination
of Mr.. Baldwin, and the formal open
ing on July 4, 1877, was a great event
in the history of the sugar industry
in these Islands.
President Planters Association.
In the Hawaiian Sugar Planters AS
ISOLATION Mr.. Baldwin was always one
of the most active members, serving as
a director for a number of terms, as
vice president in 1904-5 and president
in 1866, He and S. T. Alexander
were the senior partners of the COM
mission firm of Alexander & Baldwin,
which now has offices in this city, San
Francisco, Seattle and New York, and
controls so many of the sugar plauta-
tions of the Islands.

Pionear Planter.

Mr. Baldwin was educated at Oahu
College and made his first entry into
the cane-growing business during early
manhood. He first became engaged in
cane culture at Lahaina forty-nine
years ago and has been actively iden-
titled with the industry ever since. He
remained one and one.half years at La
haina and then went to Waihee, where
he remained for five years, becoming
head luna upon that plantation, which
was then managed by s. Il. Alexander,
who afterwaTd became Mr.. Baldwin 3
partner in the firm of Alexander &
Baldwin.
After leaving Waihee, Mr.. Baldwin
went to Paia in 1869, where he became
cane planter and the organizer of
Paia Plantation, which was merged
into the new Maui Agricultural Com.

Washington, As.4 Tine secre-
tary of the navy is considering a long
list of officers whose anne have
been submitted to him for chief OF
ordnance to succeed Rear Admiral
N. E. Mason, who will ask to be re-
tired to avail himself Of leave of
absence until his regular date OF re-
tirement for age, about a year hence.
1t Is desired by Secretary Meyer to
secure for the place an officer OF ex-
p~erience in ordnance work and, II
possible, one Of the Junior captains
or a commander. There has been
some criticism of the ordnance bu-
reau for alleged failure to keep up
with the developments In ordnance.
Mr.. Meyer believes that with new
blood In the ordnance bureau there
will be more action and that the ex-
periments in long range firing and
the encouragement of inventors of
new devices will receive greater
favor. Among the officers mention
cd for chief of ordnance are Com
mander Nathan G. TWining, on duty
at the Boston navy yard; Command
er L. H. Chandler, the principal
assistant of the aid for operations
and who is understood to be highly
recommended by Rear Admiral
Wainwright; Captain Albert Gleaves,

and Commander Volney o. Chase,

cry, also on duty at n time in the

Condemned Man Begs Her
to Hide Her Disgrace.

Albany, n. Y, April 2e.-That Charles
Green, a farmer, who killed his daugh-
ter with a shotgun In New Scotland
last July and who was sentenced to be
electrocuted at Clinton prison next
month, would sooner go to the electric
chair than have his wife admit her
own faults to save him, is made plain
In an affidavit filed with Governor Dix
by Green's lawyer, John Fl. Dugan.
Green shot his wife and daughter, but
the former recovered. On her state
ments made In her affidavit Governor
Dix granted Green a respite for sixty
days in order to apply for a new trial
on newly discovered evidence.
Mrs. Green swears that she loved her
husband and he loved her devotedly
Then Green heard that his wife had
been unfaithful. Green demanded to
know of his wife II the stories he had
heard were true. She at first denied
them and later confessed. This was
subsequently the cause Of the shoot
ing, which Mrs. Green had concealed
during Green's trial for murder.

PhiIantrepist Says.

New York, April 2e.|"And III have
you know, gentlemen, that the way OF
the philanthropist is hard" Andrew
Carnegie told the grand jury after he
had insisted for an hour that the use
Of his name. by the Carnegie Trust
company was a fraud and that he had
never given assurances to anybody at
any time that he would help the trust
| company out Of the mire.
As the result of Mr.. C~arnegie's testl-
mony superintendent Of Banks Cheney
will not be called before the grand
jury. The banking department has
assumed that 1t was justified in let
ting the Carnegie Trust company con
tinue business after April, 1910, be-
cause of alleged assurances that Mr..
Carnegie would not let the company
fail. The district attorney holds that
no sort OF assurances were cash and
that the superintendent had nc right
to let the company stagger on.
The philanthropist was not eager to
visit the grand jury room. He held
back until the district attorney told
him he would be Swallowed by sub
pOena servers.
When he first heard that a new trust
company had taken his name he was
annoyed. He didn't like the looks of
things. He wrote to his lawyers, pro-
testing, saying that he did not want
his name tackled on to the concern.
He did everything he could to stop
the use of his name. 1t was no use.
He was told that Carnegie was a COM
mon name and that the individuals
who had taken it had protected them
selves by leaving off the Andrew"
