A CLEVER
ROBBERY AT
FLORENCE

Z Friday night professional burglars
entered the bar room of Cavanaugh
and Marcos Denver Bar and took
s175 in currency and three or four
bottles of whiskey.
Entrance was made by boring a
hole in a panel of the rear door in
serting a wire and letting down the
iron bar and then unlocking the door.
The safe was not blown up but the
combination which is an unusually
hard one was worked. The robbers
left a FIVE dollar bill and 81 gold
piece They left about fifty dollars
in silver in bag near the currency
drawer. possibly because 1t was too
cumbersome.
The robbery was not detected until
about nine O'Clock Sunday morning
after the saloon had been open about
three hours Mr.. Cavanaugh noticed
the hole In the door and the bar
thrown out OF place when he came
down and opened up at six o'clock but
only thought 1t was an unsuccessful
attempt of some one to affect an en-
trance.

ter In front OF the Canon Cigar store

as they were inclined to make up and
be peaceabic he sent them on the
street. telling them to 20 home.
Lyons went to his room at the Haz-
ard Rooming house at 5i9h Main
street. Wade must have gone and pro-
cured a knife for he was unarmed at
the time OF the hst hght About ten

again and had just arrived In front
Of the Record Office when he was hall
ed by Wade. The latter with hardly

MEXICAN
STABBED
AT DANCE

John Montaya was fatally stabbed
by David Monyanarez at a Mexican
dance on Prospect Heights Saturday
night about eleven O'Clock. The dance
occurred at the home Of Montaya who
lives on the hill the other side Of the
smeiter. A long dagger was used and
Montaya received bad cut across the
lips on each side Of the nose. three
long gashes across the breast and two
deep gashes on the right thigh.
The ARRAY was not reported to the
authorities until Sunday morning and
the interim gave Monyanarez plenty Of
time to make his getaway. However.
his mother-in-law lives In Salida and
1t is thought that he will show mp
there In time. The police OF that city
were notified Sunday morning by tho
sherif's Office and 1t is thought he will
soon be caught Monyanarez lives on
the corner Of First street and New
York avenue in South Canon and has
a wife.
Montaya has n family. His recovery
seems doubtful. The physician In at
tendance said that he had TO take
stitches by the yard" In order to get
the victim properly sewed up.
1t ss not known what started the
trouble for the men were both outside
the house at the time. They were
apparently friendly toward each 9th
er and no possible reason is given for
the ARRAY. Both wives OF the men
were inside dancing and had no In
timation of the ocenranee until Mon
taya stumbled In. gasping for breath
and spiiling his blood over the floor.
Monyanarez did not enter the house
again but made his escape Immediate

SPALDING FIRM
WILLC0VSTRUGT
NAVAL HOSPITAL
Local Concern Places Lowest
Bid for Most Up.to-Date
Institution in Service

Bids for construction Of the naval
hospital at Pearl Harbor, which, when
fully completed, will be the most up
to-date hospital plant in the United
States service, were opened in Wash
ington this morning, and private
dispatches received here indicate that
the Spalding Construction Company
of Portland, Oregon. is the low bid
der. Walter Spalding, local repre-
sentative of the firm. stated this after
noon that he had just received a cable
gram saying: "Spalding low hospital"
The bids were on 10 separate items,
and the figures of the Spalding Com
Eany aggregate about 100000.
The hospital plant at Pearl Harbor
consists of 81 separate buildings and
the amount of the appropriation for
the entire project is $629,00O OF this
only $2S0,000 is now available, but by
splitting the proposals into separate
items, it is possible by cutting out
some of them to bring the Spalding
bid well within the appropriation. In
all probability only one of the two
wards called for will be built at the
present time.
The naval hospital, as planned, con-
sists of a three-story administration
building, with two-story ward build
ing on each side of it, connected by
covered passages. In the rear is the
subsistence building, and surrounding
the main chain are the outbuildings
and quarters Provision is made m
the plans for future wards, and wards
for detention, and for contagious dis
eases. The administration building,
with its two wing wards, has a front
age of $50 feet.
The main hospital building consists
of an administration suilding, two
ward buildings, subsistence building,
laboratory, operating building. laun-
dry. stable, mortuary. two officers
quarters, bachelor officers quarters,
hospital corps quarters. nurses quar-
ters, pharmacists quarters, four civil
ian employees quarters, connecting pas
sages. servants quarters, and wash
houses.
The main buildings are of rein
forced concrete construction, with
terra Gotta partitions and curtain
walls The remaining buildings, ex-
cept the mortuary, will be of wood,
with asbestos shingled roofs
The entire work covered by the con-
tract is to be completed in IS months.

CARTER SAYS CONTINUE WORK OF
Fighting FOR TARIFF ON SUGAR
Representative of Sugar Protection Committee in First Letter
from Washington, Indicates That Hawaii Is Making a
Worthwhile Showing in Uphill Fight - Believes Pub
lie Expression Only Beginning to Express Itself

Mead and Carter Four numbers OF
the first volume of the Domestic Su-
gar Bulletin have been issued besides
an immense amount of other publicity
work You in Hawaii cannot do this
class Of work so effectively as it can
be done from this end The consen-
sus of opinion among the men here
Is that the work Of the Sugar Protec-
tion Committee in Honolulu should
be continued. Mead asked il 1t was
simply a flash in the pan and Baliou
thought that follow-up letters from
Hawaii would have as much effect If
not more than if sent from here. We
discussed fully the situation and all
the field workers here are imbued
with the idea that it is impossible for
us TO expect no change. They seem
to think that the great American pub
lie is going to look upon the change
In tariff as an academic question in
which it is not interested, but to me
1t seems that public opinion is only
beginning to express itself.
"All of the material mailed from
the copmittee seems to be here, and
il will afford some valuable names to
be added to the mailing list that is
now being used. For instance, We
can send a copy of the Domestic Su-
gar Bulletin to selected list of those
10 whom letters have already been
sent from Hawaii
"Sent second cable last night tc
Babbitt. During the afternoon Harry
Irwin came in and told of the work
he is doing and expressed the opin-
ion that he found the most effective
point which appealed to members of
congress to be the necessity of keep
ing the islands Americanized, and the
serious effect which the change in
the tariff would have on diminishing
the employment of skilled and white
labor
; Made no attempt to see anyone to-
day. Ordered business cards and
tried to straightea out my papers.

r. Short, night inspector in the Gus
toms service, is responsible for the
rounding up of two bladders and eight
tins of the contraband drug which he
found in an old stone quarry in the
rear of the insane asylum. The dis
coyery of the drug was made at three
o'clock yesterday afternoon following
search of several hours, and it's con-
fisication may lead to the arrest of a
gang of smugglers believed to have
been carrying on operations in this
city for some time past.
Upon receiving information as to
the possible hiding place of the drug,
Short, without informing anyone of
what he had learned, went to Kalihi
and began search in the quarry
near the insane asylum. After search
ing for several hours he discovered an
old teapot sitting near a pile of small
stones we'll up under a small ledge
With the use of stick, he dug into
the ground to depth of about half a
foot when he came upon gunny sack
Removing the sack and opening it,
he found it to contain the cache of
opium. He reported his find and turn
ed the drug over to the customs Off
cials, and Chief of Detectives McDuf-
fie was set on the trail Two Portu-
gese were arrested upon suspicion

EXPERT TO INVESTIGATE
ALL ANGLES OF THE

Latest advices from Washington are
to the effect that William Cox Red
field, the new secretary of commerce,
will be allowed s1,0O0,000 to make a
thorough investigation of the Under
wood Wilson tariff measure, which it
is said will compel a large number OF
manufacturers to close their factories
should it finally be enacted.
According to friends of the secre-
tary, he knows more about the tariff
than does Oscar Underwood. Besides
filling the Office to which he has been
appointed by President Wilson, Red,
field is at the head of the Manufactur-
ers' Export Association, which posi-
tion enables him to keep his finger on
the pulse of all tariff questions.
