BOOZE PUT CONN0RS
ION BEACH" FOR KEEPS

Whitley" Connors, n derelict who
has achieved unusual notoriety in police
circles and has spent a big part of the
year he has been in Hawaii nei in the
county jail, was arrested again yester-
day when he was found begging on
Fort street. Connors was one of the
party of fourteen sailors who jumped
overheard from the Edward sewall
while she was lying In Kphului harbor
little more than year ago. For a
few months he worked steadily in and
about Whiluku and then fell from grace
and became so troublesome eventually
that he was shipped to Honolulu Since
his arrival here he has been a constant
pest and is no sooner released from Jail
than he is in again. He recently served
three months. 1t is said by men who
knew Connors in California that he was
at one time wealthy and prosperous
| fruit-grower but that his fondness for
alcohol and drugs got the better of
him and he has become "A familiar
figure "on the beach, in various ports
during the last few years.

HL0 WHARF TO
Be BUILT NOW
harbor Board Decides 10 Let the
Contracts Today-No Time
VII Be Lost.

a. meeting of the board Of harbor
commissioners In caueus last night ihc
contracts for the uilo wharf work and
FOR the on aud dredging in liilo harbor
we're awarded within she available
funds and the project Of postponing
the work and calling for new bids on
much more expensive concrete wharf
was rejected.
In awarding these contracts the mem
bers Of the board used mp the remnant
of the last bond issue Of $l,5O0,O00
and left only go 30 be disposed OF
prior 20 the next meeting Of the legis-
lature. Although there was a rumor
a6oat yesterday TO the effect that the
construction work at Hilo would be
postponed until funds were available
TO build concrete wharf, the members
OF the board, meeting in caucus at
Colonel Charles McCarthy's residence,
settled the matter definitely and ac.
ccpted bids just within the 100000
available, so that the contracts will be
arranged at once and the work of inn
proving the harbor of Hilo will be com
menced in the very near future.
The Lord-Young Engineering Com
pany was given the contract for the
construction of the wharf, their bid
being $4,000. The Hawaiian Dredg-
ing Company was awarded the filling
and dredging contracts at $685. 500 and
$i7 $50 for the respective jobs.
At the regular meeting of the board
this morning, the chairman, Super
intendent of Public Works Campbell,
will be authorized to open negotiations
with the contractors at once and ac-
cording to Colonel McCarthy's state
ment, the work will be begun as
quickly as possible.
The board s decision in this matter
will be acceptable to all who are inter
ested in the development of the Islands
and especially to the people of Hilo,
who have been urging the necessity of
harbor improvements in their port for
a number of years. Had the board
determined to reject the bids for the
wooden wharf which are within the
available 100000, and depend upon
the Legislature voting new bond issue
to cover the additional cost of con-
crete pier in Hilo the necessary funds
would not have been available for an
other year and the much needed ship
ping facilities in Hilo would have been
that much farther away.

Knox's Solemn Warning.
TAX VALUE STILL
INTERESTS BRECKONs

In the second Mahuka site trial the
government is rapidly putting on its
case and appearances now indicate
that it is approaching a close.
Yesterday X. r. ReidfOrd, one Of the
principal real estate experts for the
respondents, was called to the stand
by District Attorney Breekons, who
proceeded TO interrogate him closely
relative to taxes paid in past years on
the premises now occupied by the Ha'
waiian Trust Company.
Mr.. Reidford was asked how 1t was
that previous to the time the Bishop
Trust Company took charge of the man
agement of the premises taxes had been
paid on $4,000 and later on only $l2,-
500. Mr.. Reidford consumed long
time in endeavoring TO explain this ap-
parent inconsistency, for IT also ap'
peared that the valuation he gave the
tax assessor in 1910 for the Bank of
Hawnii's 3 interest as lessor, $4,000
was much smaller than the valuation
set by him on the same property after
the government served notice that II
wanted TO buy II.
John NJ. Dowsett testified to the salt
of the Pantheon block in portions, say
ing that various pieces of that prop
erty, divided in nine equal parts, ha'
sold for prices ranging from $iOOO u
$4,000 each.
Charles n. Marquee, w. G. Ashley
Samuel Damon, and Cushman Carte
were also called yesterday as witnesse
for the government.

WORLDS SUGAR
SHOWS A DECREASE

In Willett & Gray's estimates of cane
crops, May 90, 1912, the production for
Hawaii for the present season is placed
at $4,000 tons, as compared with $685.
096 for 1911 and 62,612 tons for the
year 1910.
The estimate for Cuba for the current
season is 100000 tons, as against
1,4S3,451 tons for the season 1901,
and 1,S04, ,349 for 1909-10.
The total eestimate for America,
meaning Western Hemisphere, is 4,O9O,-
092 tons for the present season. For
1901 the production was 3,770,266,
and for l909-10, 4,022,S 1897 tons.
The estimate of the worlds produc-
tion of cane and beet sugar for 19l1-l2
is 15,773,293 tons; for the preceding
season the output was 1898, 800, and
for I909.10 the production was 1877, J,
$50. Willett e. Gray estimate the de
crease in the world's e production fol
this year as 1,220,20 tons.
The total cane sugar crops as esti
mated for this year (19ll-l2) show an
increase over each of the two preceding
seasons. For this season it is S,S96, 1872
for 1901 the production was S,433, ,l54
tons; and for l9O9,l0, s,S30,024 tons.
The decrease in the world s produc
ton, therefore, is in the European beet
sugar crop, the beet sugar crop of thu
United States promising an increase o.
about ninety thousand tons over th'
production of last year.

NEGROES ARE MOST ACTIVE
Leader Announces Desire 10 Do
Damage 10 Foreigners
Where Possible.

WASHINGTON, June S.--Whils the
army and navy departments yesterday
were issuing orders placing large part
Of the land and naval forces Of the
eountrv upon war basis, ready 20
move at a moment E notice, the state
department was in constant touch With
the American embassy AZ Havana and
with the commander OF the forces al
ready at the scene Of possible action at
Guantanamo. During the Afternoon or
ders were issued by the war depart
ment for the preparation of four trans
ports 70 be held in readiness for the
transportation Of troops 10 Cuba. whlle
other preparations were started under
way for the mobilization of fifty thou
sand men.
The situation in Sana Clara Prov
inee Is reported TO be steadily beeon-
ing worse, while large bands OF negro
insurrectOs are pillagiDg throughout
Oriente Province, the rebels threaten
ing 10 converge upon Guantanamo City.
The Cuban government has several
large forces in the field composed OF
cavalry and infantry, with field ana
machine guns, but the insnrrectos are
avoiding any direct battles, while con
tinuing their depredations.
Simon Armenter0s, the leader of one
Of the largest negro bands, has notified
Havana that he intends TO make Amer.
lean property the especial object OF
his raids and that he will do his ut.
most to destroy as much foreign prop
erty as be can.
Secretary of the Interior Bru, from
Havana, states that there is no doubt
about the Widespread racial insurrec
tion, but assures the state department
here that the Cuban government viii
do its utmost TO protect foreigners and
foreign properties and will deal dras
tically with the rebels.
Knox's Solemn Warning.
The situation was so critical last
night that Secretary Knox issued
warning direct to President Gomez, u
the effect that any further continued
failure TO protect foreigners and thei
Cuban interests would inevitably re
suit in Intervention by the Unite'
States.

KUHIO COMING TO
HAWAII AFTER ALL
Filled With Disgust" but What
About Is Matter of Much
Speculation.

Delegate Kuhio is coming home. Of
fetal and unofficial advices focked to
Honolulu over the cable wire yesterday
to confirm the previous rumor that the
Prince had decided against attending
the national convention to which he
is delegate and there were num-
ber of politicians who were exceeding
ly puzzled over the situation as it now
presents itself as well as lot more
who did not appear to be but who kept
very quiet. Most of those prominently
connected with the factional fight that
disturbed the territorial convention two
months ago, as. well as the Delegates
personal agents, all left town yester-
day afternoon. Leaders in Kuhio's fac
tion who are in town have heard from
him and it is believed Shingle is with
him.
Acting Governor Mott-Smith receiv-
ed cable Thursday morning, presum-
ably from Governor Frear, to the effect
that Kuhio was coming back. 1t did
not, according to Mr.. Mott-Smith last
night, give any reasons for this return
engagement. Since that cable was sent,
the Delegate announced his intention
in Washington, assigning as his reasons
the fact that he was disgusted with the
Taft Roosevelt scrambfe-which all in
terviewed last night believed to be sim
ply one way of sidetracking an inter
viewer. His absence from the national
convention floor removes from the Ha-
waiian delegation the only representa-
tive of the "KuhIo faction on it, as
his place is taken by A. Q. Marcallino,
his alternate, Frear man.
Mott Smith Puzzled.
"I confess frankly, I'm puzzled over
his reasons for returning" said Mr..
| Mott-Smith last night, 81 received no
tice of it the other day from another
source but have not heard directly
from him. haven't the slightest idea
what it MEANS
That it means one of two things was
the opinion of Honolulu yesterday, or
of that part of it whose relation to
politics gave weight to their opinions
One alternative was that Frear had
Kuhio over the political barrel the 9th
er was that Kuhio had Frear over the
barrel. AS the man who guessed wrong
would be very wrong no one guessed a.
all, but the Delegate Is sudden and un
expected 'dlSgnst win American
politics from Taft to Roosevelt lent tbs
most color to the alternative suggest
ing that he had something to be Dis
gusted with.
Government officials yesterday wer'
not anxious TO speak for publication
and the majority of them knew littl'
about it. That Kuhio's move is init
mately connected with a development
, in the governorship situation is be.iev
, ed by all, first because most of Kuhio :
recent disgust" for things has bee
: called forth by governorship matter
7 and secondly by reason of the report
l that crept out several days ago whe
: some one tapped the political wire
Z What was the development hinte
e at then was never discovered, but de
t velopment it no doubt was.
