Il am back to fight case to be
carried in the courts wherein Captain
Frederick Miller is endoavoring to re-
cover commissions alleged as due
upon a possible sale of Tanning or
Washington island to Japan.
Further than that l have nothing
to say at this time in regard to this
claim" was the statement offered by
Father Emmanuel Rougier, the we'll
known "Copra King" of the South
Seas, who has figured in series of
interesting events in tie development
of the copra estates of the little coral
islets in the South Pacific.
"The elimination of the, British
steamer Kestre1 from the service be-
tween Honolulu and Tanning will
greatly depend upon the possibility of
a disposal of the steamer The vessel
is in the market and understand
that should Armstrong & Armstrong,
the present owners of the craft, sue
ceed in selling the steamer, then other
arrangements will be made in the
transport of supplies from this city to
the South Seas" said Father Rougier,
who returned on the Manchuria to-
day. .-.. >.-..... .. -.

Father Rougier simply laughed
when confronted with the story ap-
pearing in a morning paper, which
had to do with the possibility of the
federal customs officers taking steps
to confiscate an alleged, rope of

GOVERNOR EXPLAINS
STATUS OF MEASURES

Disclaiming authorship Of the blu
yesterday introduced in the legisla-
ture by Senator Baker for the purpose
OF the segregation Of the social evil,
Governor Frears in an interview with
Star-Bnlletin representative this
morning, emphasized the fact that he
is responsible for and in favor of the
abatement bill previously introduced.
The governor Is in favor Of any segre-
cation plan, he explained, only in case
ii is found impossible to pass the
other measure.
The governor said:
Senator Baker has been entirely
consistent and frank throughout He
introduced the abatement bin at my
request but stated at the same timf
that he favored segregation. He Is Ii
no way responsible for the abatement
hill. ] alone am responsible for that
Later he asked that bill be drafted
based on the segregation idea and J
referred the matter to the attorney
general, who had such a bill drafted
for the senator. He had his bill
drafted as he has drafted or had
drafted or had drafted by his depu.
Ties many other bills for members ol
the legislature in his official capa
city for members of a coordinate
lraneh of the government In such
cases, OF course. the bills in no sense
are to be regarded as favored by
either him or myself.
at seems to me, however. that we
should have one thing or the other
Now we have neither Either we
should priced on the theory of stamp.
ing out the evil as far as that can be
done, or we should proceed on the the.
ory of segregation. which is in reality
the only alternative; but If the latter
theory is adopted It should not be In

Ii ii could be justified at all, it would
be only on the theory that that is the
most that can be accomplished undel

reasons given for justifying segrega

Gas Company Presidents At
tack on Rates of Other Con-
cern Is Given Emphatic
Answer
Honolulu. April IS.

1OnOiuHl, ApFil lo.s
Editor Honolulu Star-B Bulletin. s. s,
Sir: Referring to the reported
statements Of Mr. w. R. Castle pum-
lished in the Advertiser of Thursday.
the 17th inst, while we do not be-
iieve that Mr.. Castle would wilfully
misfepresent the facts In connection
with the Hawaiian Electric Company.
nevertheless we feel called upon to
make the following reply:
Mr.. Castle states that four years
ago he learned that the Hawaiian
Electric Company was furnishing
light to people in the lower part of
the city at rate which would war
rant them in abandoning the use Of
gas which they knew to be cheaper
than electric lights at IL cents kilo-
watt, and that the Chinese and Jap
snese were being charged but six
cents kilowatt while he and others
were required to pay seventeen cents
kilowatt.
This is not the case and If he fully
investigated this matter, as he says
he did, We ask him to produce eyi-
dence where in any instance the Ha-
wafian Electric Company has ever
sold Chinese or Japanese, or any
other nationality, electricity for light
ing purposes at six cents per kilo-
watt.
Mr.. Castle states that the Chinese
and Japanese consumers were given a
discount of IL cents per kiIowatt in
consideration of their burning each
1e-cp. light two kilowatts or over a
month and that no such discount was
allowed to consumers other than the
Chinese and Japanese This again is
not the fact Take the Honolulu Gas
Company, for instance, OF which he is
president, and as such should be some
what familiar with its business condi-
tions. On January IA, 1907, the Homo
lulu Gas Company made application
for electric lighting service for It's gas
orks. This company, although Won
dering why it was necessary to illumi-
nate a gas company by electricity,
gladly accepted this business offered
by the Gas Company and installed its
meter and charged for .its service at

every appearance of having lain dead

been removed .. a"--
Deputy Sheriff Fernandez of Eva
was later summoned. He soon inn
paneled a jury, which, upon visiting
the scene, rendered a verdict of death
through suicide.
Deputy Fernandez and his officers
stated that they saw evidences of an
attempt having been made to sever
the windpipe, marks yet being plain
iy distinguishable that showed that
the throat had been slashed from ear
10 ear. III.
Despite thorough search, nothing
was found in the way of knife or
other weapon.
Inquiry made this morning failed
TO disclose the identity Of the dead
man. AS far as can be learned no
such person has been employed or is
at present missing from any of the
neighboring plantations.
The condition of the remains when
found is said to preclude any attempt
at positive identification.

DEAD MAN found
WITH SLASHED
THROAT

Lying partially covered by foot
of loose earth, near the border of

City, the badly decomposed body of a
man, now believed to have been a
Porto Rican, was discovered on last
Wednesday evening.
A party of Japanese from Honolulu
plantation in completing their work
in neighboring field, were halted Ill
their operations because of power

first believe that an animal had
crawled into the field and there died.

little band of laborers, plunged into
the thick of the cane, and caught hold
of something that afterward proved
to be mans hand.

the prevailing rates. We refer Mr..
Castle to the Gas C0mpany's bill up
to the present time as to whether they
were not allowed the usual discount
for consumption of electricity in ex-
cess of 2 kilowatts per 16-c.p light per
month. Mr. Castle states that the
minimum charge for service Is 81 per
month to some cQnsumers. while the
Chinese and Japanese enjoy much
lower rate. II this statement is true,
then to be consistent Mr.. Castle
should not have paid, as he has, the
company its minimum meter charge
of So per month when the consump-
ton of electricity at his residence has
been below the minimum charge of 81
per month, but should have insisted
on the lower rate which he claims ex-
lists.
The statement that the Hawaiian
Electric Company offers some con-
sumers a 42-c. p. light with the
privilege of using all the light he
pleases is again not the fact. Under
The original franchise granted by the
Monarchy it was expressly. stipulated
that this company should allew fiat
rate of one dollar per light for each
light burning up to II o'clock at
right. The Chinese and Japanese
business in the lower part of town
was built up on this basis long be-
fore the gas company came into ex-
istence We have information that
wnen the gas company started in bust
ness they solicited business among
the Chinese and japanese consumers,
guaranteeing better light than cleo
trio Light at so cents per light per
month. In the face of this competi-
tion the electric company refused to
lower their rate of one dollar per
month to meet this competition. The
Hawaiian Electric company has al
ways been, and is still, willing to ex.
tend this flat rate to any consumer.
Referring to Mr. Castles statement
that he has not paid his bill for four
years, and had tried his best to get the
company to sue him. This we admit,
but it was not because we thought or
believed that our rates were unjust or
discriminatory. We believed that as
president of the gas company he was
trying to draw us into public fight.
We knew that Mr.. Castle was a man
of financial responsibility and felt that
he would ultimately pay the bill.

CHARGES STIRRED UP
IN HAGEMANN CASE.

Interest was at white heat among
those who have followed the w. +.
Hagemann murder trial when the
fact that half dozen of the most i'm
portant witnesses called during the
trial were yesterday called fefore the
federal grand jury was discussed this
morning. 1t was stated by those in
8 position to know that the calling of
the witnesses can have but one mean
ing: that an Indictment of the wit
nesses on a charge of perjury or Of
attorneys interested in the case on a
charge of bribery is considered.
1t was alleged this morning that,
during the time Of the trial, man
who later testified for the defense and
who was said to be the right-hand
man in the outlining OF the case, was
seen in various saloons along Hotel
street with a pocket full of gold coins
which he was more than willing to
circulate for the entertainment OF his
friends. Several people interested In
the case are alos alleged to have sub
stantiated the report that Privates
Evans and Hays, the two star wit
neSSeS Tor the prosecution, naue Stdle-
ments that they had been approached
by the defense and offered pecuniaTy
inducements to alter any testimony
they intended to give SO as to favor
Hagemann.
The grand jury have adjourned un-
til Monday morning and 1t Is said by
those on the inside that further wit
nesses from Schofield will be sub
poenaed at that time.
