ALL CHINA FIRM
FOR SUN YAT SEN
Merchants Of Shanghai and Other
Cities Suspicious Of Yuan,
Says Traveller.

Yuan Shih-Kai showed his states
manship when he voluntarily. resigned
from the post of provisional President
of the new Republic of China, and rec
commended DIR. Sun Vat Sen as his sue
cess6r, y says c. f. Bond, who recently
returned from China, and is stopping
over here on his way back to New
York. Mr.. Bond was the representa-
tive of the New York Photo News and
made special point of discovering how
the merchants of the howery republic
regarded Sun Vat Sen and Yuan Shin
kai, while gathering some of the sem
sational pictures he took.
At the instance of the editor of the
Liberty News, with whom Mr.. Bond
has had several conversations since ar
irving here, the newspaperman has put
his observations and the remarks CLEAN
ing in interviews with prominent Chi
nese business men in Shanghai, Han
kow, Marking and elsewhere, into print
From his observations Bond believes
that even had Yuan Shih-Kai taken the
post offered him by the national as
sembly at the suggestion of Doctor Sun
his efforts to secure peace and cooper
alton in the newly formed republic
would have failed miserably for lack
of the necessary trust and confidence in
him and his aims.
In the foreign concessions of
Shanghai, where began my investiga-
tions of conditions and especially of
the feeling toward Sun Vat Sen and
Yuan Shih-Kai ] found almost without
exception that the English-speaking
people, European and Celestial, are
firm adherents of Sun. Of Yuan Shin.
Kai, while they admit his great abil-
tiles and his wonderful power of ad-
ministration, they refuse utterly to
give him any credit for sincerity. The
Chinaman from Honolulu has their be-
lief. Upon him the merchants of Shang-
hal are relying to bring China out of
her present crisis and mould her des-
TIMES and policies.
Everywhere / went / discovered
the same feeling, with slight varia-
tions. Some declared their belief that

China's republic would revert to an
empire far quicker than did France un.
der the rule of the First Consul. For
instance, Judge May, one of the lead
ers of the revolutionary movement in
Fishgate, old Shanghai, told me that

and the foreign interest
Said he, / am convinced if the
rumor we hear that Yuan is to follow
Doctor Sun after the troubles are over,
is correct that all aid financial and
moral win be withdrawn from the rev.
olution by those who have until now
been furnishing much of the sinews of
war. The effort of Yuan to trick the
peace commissioners by. sidestepping
and evasion over the first abdication

THROWS OFF ALL DISGUISE


WASHINGTON, February 1e.-Gif-
ford Pinchot, former forester under
Taft and Roosevelt last night came out
boldly for Theodore Roosevelt as the
only logical leader for the Republican
party in the present crisis. He assert
cd in public statement that he has
been constrained to withdraw all sup
port from Senator Ia Folletto's boom
for President, and with the experience
he has gained in. travelling through the
country is forced again to throw his
weight for the Sage of Oyster Bay.
The move is regarded here as indi-
eating that Roosevelt believes the time
is almost ripe for public statement
from himself. Pinchot has been for
many years the warm, personal friend
of Roosevelt, and an ardent advocate
of the so.called Roosevelt policies when
forester under the former President
and later when serving in the same ca.
pacity under Secretary Ballingar. Since
his resignation from Office Pinehot has
been busying himself in fighting Roose-
velt's fight through the country, ana
his utterances have generally been
taken as inspired from Oyster Bay.

Ben de Mello, "the Hilo Lion" and
Jim Hoao of Honolulu boxed twelve
rounds at the Orpheum theater last
evening to draw, Joe Cohen referee
ing the match The audience that COM
fortably filed the auditorium went
away well pleased To express the gen.
eral sentiment of the fans in single
sentence: 1t was one of the best bouts
ever staged in local ring.
There was no stalIing, and both boys
put forth their best efforts. They fought
clearly and they fought hard; moreover
they fought well. There may be Diff
ferences of opinion as to the decision
there always are-but only the an
nouncement of draw coIld have come
anywhere near the popular verdict.
Hoao's height and his reach put a
handicap upon his shorter and stocker
opponent, but de Mello partially over
came that handicap by giving the maj
or share of his attention to Hoao's
body. 1t was evident that he was look
ing for AN opening-luckily for Hoao it
never came-when he could land some
thing in the wind. He punished Hoao
heavily in the kidneys and at times
opened up with showers of right and
left swings that kept Jim covering.
Hoao's great defensive tactics were
not so effective with de Mello as they
are with a man nearer his height. HIS
graceful, low body swings to duck a
blow could not be executed SO nicely
and toward the end of the bout de
Mello began to take advantage of this
,, and come under. The Hilo man showed
himself capable of taking an immense
amount of punishment without finch
ing, and without showing great distress,
He came through the fight in fine shape,
and seemed to retain the force of his
blows almost until the last.
Hoao IS magnificent straight arm work
| featured and he used it continually.
With his right, as usual, he was unable
! to do great execution. Uppercuts avail
ed neither of the boys anything. De
Mello's stature makes him naturally a
good infghter. 1t was for this reason
that he stood ont against clean breaks.
The bout was boxed one arm free, pro-
tecting at all times, and breaking at
the word of the referee.
Hoao probably delivered more punish
ment than his opponent, and was more
frequently on the verge of administer
ling an apparent knockout. He lacked

and managed by Los Angeles orange
expert.
1t was Edward Seller, of Los An.
geics, who was taken with the big
orange which is on view now in the
public service association window. He
was astonished to learn that it grew.
in back yard in Honolulu and that
no particular care had been given to
the tree.
Mr.. Seller began to investigate for
himself Finally he made this offer
IF the public service association will
get me l60 acres I will plant it in four
kinds of citrus fruit, send white men
to take care of the project for FIVE years
and take care of real model orange
grove in these islands,
The public service jumped at such an
opportunity, and soon Mr.. Seller was
brought into conference with directors
of the organization. To one of the
directors the proposition looked so
good that he preferred to talk on the
basis of putting in 400 acres and taking
a half interest in the orange grove.
In any case the 100 acres are assured
and Mr.. Seller, if no better location is
offered, will probably start planting
the first real commercial orange grove
in Kona.
Sees Hope Ahead
Mr.. Seller has been inauiring into
the possibilities of orange culture in
Hawaii and is more than encouraged.
He has learned that the very finest
grade of naval oranges grow in Hcno-
lulu and that in Kona the orange grows
wild.
cit is absolutely safe venture to
plant thousand acres,p he said, for
Honolulu would consume the product
of such an orchard; moreover, even if
we are barred from the Pacific Coast
on account of the fruit fly, with the
completion Of the Panama Canal, we
have the New York and Boston mar
kets opened to US, and if l plant grove
I will know how to keep out the fruit

must have our fire pots ready, every
few yards, to touch off in ease of a
frost; we must irrigate, and fortune
is spent preparing the land. From
what have seen and learned / believe
that Hawaii will with the completion
of the. Panama Canal become the great
citrus fruit dollhouse of America, and

Wandering down from Kauai in the

slept last night on bench in the police
station stables, both dying from con-

m that hospital were all filed and that
they could not be admitted Police
Surgeon Emerson also examined the
two, who are little more than boys, one
only nineteen years old, and declared
them to be dying from disease, with
but short time more to live.
The police then moved a bench into
the shed and secured some blankets
which they wrapped about their
shrnnken bodies and passed the night.
Their names are Jose Liliwa and

HOAO AND DE MELLO BOX
TWELVE ROUNDS TO DRAW
tFrom sundays Advertissr.l

Hoao's rushing rounds that made him
SO largely deserving of draw.
The first, fourth, fifth, seventh, ninth,
tenth and twelfth were about even.
Hoao opened up in the second and third,
both of them being his rounds, and the
third all his. He deserved the sixth,
but the eighth was easily de Mello's.
A stiff hook to the neck loored Hoao
In this round but he came up before
the count began. The eleventh was
Hoao's round. He uncorked all the
steam there was left in him and rush
ed his opponent all round the ring. De
Mello took part of the count, and stood
terrific punishment, but came up in the
twelfth apparently as strong as ever.
In the third de Mello took part of the
count, when Hoao's left drew blood
oyer his opponent IS right eye. In the
fifth de Mello came in hard and gave
Hoao severe punishment. De Mello used
his right effectively to the kidney, and
landed a stiff left hook to the jaw. De
sMello rushed in the first of the seventh,
but Hoao stopped this before the gong
sounded.
There were two preliminaries, knock
outs featuring both. In the first, be-
tween Soldier Kronk and Solder How
ard, the latter landed the sleep punch
early in the third round, putting the
light.haired boy away with right to
the point of the jaw. Copeland of Fort
