WHITE SLAVE SLAYERS
Four Parties Seek Two Missing Men
In Murder Band

Bridgeport, Conn.,, Oct. 28.-If
the search for big Andrew" Copone
and Hartford Jimmie" Lewis, two
of the five men who, it is alleged,
took Jennie Cavalieri to lonely spot
in the suburbs of this city and shot
her to death, proves successful, the
police assert they will have in custody
a quintet of men who form the basis
OF great white slave system, operat-
ing between New York and Chicago.
The opinion of the police is ex-
pressed in n circular which they have
sent broadcast giving descriptions Of
the missing men.
Despite the confession OF Joseph
Buonomo, one OF the three men under
arrest charged with the crime, who
says he alone did the shooting, four
separate searching parties are still at
work in the hope that Capone and
Lewis have not yet been able TO get
beyond the reach of the local police.

proper Interpretation. The Governor
and the Supreme Court are entitled
to their opinion"
Under questioning by Mr.. Fisher he
admitted his idea is that the general
homestead law should be changed to
fit the rules laid down in the Su
preme Courts decision
Mr.. Fisher said, after some argu
ment, that Attorney Irwin evidently
made no direct charge against Gov
Frear. Irwin admitted that, repeat.
ing his previous statement to that eff
feet. He said the present difficulty
is that the homesteaders have spent
considerable money improving their
lands and cannot gain title or return
of the money expended.
do you think if they were given
an extension of time and opportunity
to go ahead and prove up, it would
relieve the Situation? the Secretary
inquired.
I'm many instances they would be
glad of that privilege" was the reply,
but in many other instances they
could not because they have moved
away and have not the necessary
funds to continue the work"
Attorney Irwin thought a law re-
curing proper contracts with the
large plantations would aid much in
encouraging the proper kind of home

Discussing the old contract system
he admitted that in fact the result
was that the mills did the cultivating,

restrictions that system might be sat

CONVENTION GETS TO
WORK AFTER DELAY

Harry Juen, chairman of the county
committee, called the Democratic
convention to order at 1890 o'clock
with a baseball bat, signifying that
the ''rough-houSe" marking most
Democratic conventions was expected.
Juen's speech was entirely along
conditions as expressed by the base
ball bat He said he expected trou-
BILE, but hoped when the smoke had
cleared away, that all would be unit
ed to carry the Democratic candidates
into victory and offices. Kaleipou-
lou read the official call in Hawaiian.
the reading said he did not think it
was necessary to read it in English.
There were no dissenters.
The reading of the temporary roll
call followed, showing a grand total
of 306 delegates.
Chairman Juen asked If there were
any contests, stating that it would
not be customary to permit contest
ing delegates to participate in the
temporary convention.
He then announced that the cOnven-
ton was open for the nomination of
a temporary chairman.
Jack kalakiela was nominated by
an anti-Jarrettitc, who moved also
the nominations be closed. In an up
roar which followed. a Jarrettite got
the name of c. J. Mccarthy before
the convention as candidate. The
name was greeted with storm of
cheers.
A Hawaiian whose name was lost
in the turmoil delivered a philippe in
Hawaiian calling for the naming Of
Hawaiian chairman, inaSmuCh as the
HaWaiians had most Of the votes.
T. J. Ryan cot to his feet and OPP
posed the closing of nominations ar
bitrarly. Ju asked if there were
any further no. Ii"ations. There were
none. A Haw;';ian with a Jarrett
badge wanted TO know by what right
r. J. Ryan sat among the delegates
of the eighth precinct. Ryan, rising
to a question OF personal privilege,
said he would sit anywhere he want
ed TO-
It was moved that A committee Of
three tcI!crs be named to count the
votes. Those named were Jesse Ulu-
hi, William kaai and kahaleaahu-
two anti-TarrettS and one Jarrett man.
Proxies were excluded from voting.
The voting hadn't progressed far
before it was evident that the Jar
rett faction as represented by Nc
Carthy was overwhelmingly in the
majority. and the result showed it,
with a total OF 1f6 for Mccarthy to
kalakiela's 81
He was escorted to the chair amid
applause He said he thanked the
convention for the honor and would
try to satisfy everybody and give
fair deal He said it was unfortunate
that one delegate had attempted to
raise the race issue, but he was sure
there was no intention Of raising such
an issue by the Democrats. other than
to show the people that the party was
only gathered to put the best men on
the ticket without regard to preju
dice.
Jonas Kiakaha said he thought the
convention ought TO offer thanks to
the Almighty for the selection Of snch
