FOR THE MONEY

Hirano, a Japanese found guilty on
a charge Of embezzling $500, was SEN
fenced by Judge Cooper yesterday to
Imprisonment at hard labor for not
less than three years and four months
nor more than ten years.
Attorney Atkinson had offered ex
tenuating circumstances for lenient
sentence, the principal one being that
defendant was more fool than criminal.
In the next place he had made resti-
tuition Of part of the money.
Judge Cooper rather saw well
planned scheme of roguery, in the de.
fendant's cashing his friends check
at Hackfeld's personating his friend,
and sending part of the money to ia
pan. He might be fined three times
the amount in jeopardy, but as he
would not likely be good for so much
money, the court would give him a
prison sentence.

DECIDE TO APPEAL TO QUEEN
AGAINST JAP INVASION; AND
TAKE SHOT At RAPID TRANSIT

Two local improvement clubs the
Manoa and Kaahumanu-held meet
ings last night and discussed many
matters for the betterment of their
districts The Kaahumanu Club had
an attendance of about forty residents
of Makiki district, at the home of r.
j. King, and there was large attend
gnce at Manoa.
The Makiki Club approved plans TO
open Kewalo street to Beretania
avenue and TO secure lots on the Wal
kiki side of Piikoi, opposite Kaahu-
manu- school, for an addition 10 the
school grounds. A special committee
which had been appointed to look into
the matter reported that Superintend-
ent of Public Works Marston Camp
bell had expressed approval Of both
propositions, and that there was a good
chance of their going through.
The japanese tenement nuisance
was discussed at some length, en-
phatic expressions being made I'm
favor Of further efforts TO rid the dis
trict Of the Objectionable structures.
II was announced that a deal was be-
ing closed whereby the former resi-
dence Of Henry Davis, PiikOi ana
Young streets, was to be rented by
the estate Of Queen Liliuokalani TO a
Japanese, to be used as a boys school
The school, It was reported, had been
80 disorderly that 1t was being forced
to move from its present location. The
property is owned by Queen Liliuoka-
lani John Walker, Captain Parker
and Col. c. J. Mccarthy had all tried
to buy It, and declared themselves
ready to pay the rent and leave It idle
rather than have the proposed new
tenants.
After considerable discussion It
was decided to make a personal appeal
TO the Queen, If necessary, against
the deal being made by her agents.
c. w. Ashford was made chairman Of
| the committee to see her and her
agents in behalf of the club. He said
that he had no doubt that If she were
appealed TO on grounds of civic pride,
she would do everything possible to
aid the club, especially in view of her
public position and the community's
warm support Of the bill to increase
her allowance from the treasury.
! A resolution was passed declaring
against the sale of any Makiki Valley
lots and fayoring their retention for
public purpose-elther forest re-
serve or a park. w. r. Harrington,
, Norman Watkins and A. II. Dondero
were named as a committee to take
the matter up. Watkins said he
wouldn't serve If It was proposed to
make an improved park, as he was OPP
posed to any such plans there being
no money to spare for such purpose.

were liable to become charges.
The cases ruled upon was that of

held that they were in the same physi-
cal status as when they entered the

the secretary asserted that there were
only two ways in which protection
could be secured against undesirable
immigration of this character. 1t could
be accomplished either by looking to
the authorities charged with the first
investigation or by additional legisla-
ton allowing the immigration authori-
ties to pass upon the aliens here indie

cf the railroads are now having diHi-
Guilty handling their freight traffic. A

difficulty in getting cars FOR almost any
kind Of commodity is now general

\ few days ago II was reported that
lat least 1900 additional cars could be
used TO good advantage in moving the
potato crop in the Northwest states. TO
say nothing of the thousands Of ears
that are needed for grain and other
produce. The average person may be Of
the opinion that business is quiet
throughout the country, but conditions
as shown by the railroads do not bear
out this opinion.
1t is now feared that the car short
age may be the means of causing an
advance in the prices Of grain and pro-
duce, as the shipping costs will increase
as the weather grows colder.
