Entire Estate of Late Philan-

The estate left by the late Charles
X. Bishop, who died in San Francisco
June :, instead of approximating Sl0,-
000,000 is probably not worth AT most
one-tenth OF that amount. according to
the opinion of Honolulu business men.
Unless the estate OF: the late philan-
thropist is many times larger than
close business associates in Honolulu
believe, the share of f. FaXon Bishop

more than $1.090,0 900 as reported in
a newspaper this morning will scarce.

death to the effect that he had really
seriously curtailed his resources by
large gifts and endowments, is, |

opinion advanced this morning.

The terms of the will, argue Homo

This plan met with the favor OF
two of the trustees today, but owing

DISMISSAL OF !.

misSioners Put It Up to Him

]. Walter Doyle, director of publicity
at San Francisco for the Hawaii ex-
position commission, has been given
notice by Chairman II. P. Wood that
his services will not be required after
July 81. according to despatch receiV-
ed in Honolulu last night. -.
Since the middle OF May ''the axe

in Honolulu over the circumstances
which have eventually led to his dis
missal. 49,. :.......... ~-

agreed in the opinion that you have

dismissal. -. .~. IL. -.
In letter dated May Is Mr.. Wood
wrote to Doyle in part as follows:
During the course of our converse
ton yesterday, you asked me just
what your status was with the Hawaii
exposition commission and what you
were expected to do. l had hoped that
this matter might have been settled
by the resolution employing you but
all that was said in the letter relating
to the matter from Mr.. Williams, vice
chairman, was that you had been en-
ployed at $173 per month from March
l, but that if your services were not
satisfactory, was authorized to dis
pense with them, giving you month S
notice or pay for similar period.
Thus far, | have not been able
to arrive at any conclusion as to the
value of your work. The only instance
in which asked you to do something,
namely. prepare a little leaflet as a
guide to the Hawaii building, you ap-
parently paid no attention to, SO | was

self As to the value of the publicity
secured by you in meeting steamers,
generally speaking, | am somewhat
skeptical, though quite willing to admit
that the interviews secured with re-
turning legislators recently appearing
in the local press, were, in my opinion,
of value to the islands. Your report
on news matters to the island papers
are, of course, interesting to friends
there and probably serve to create in

Islands also in blockade. As a conse-
quence, American vessels were seized
by both French and English cruisers,
and her commerce, though preserving a
strict neutrality, was suddenly swept
from the ocean. The baneful effect of
the "orders' and "decrees" was ag-
gravated by the naughty assumption of
the right, by Great Britain, to search
unceremoniously American vessels for
suspected deserters from the British
navy, under cover of which the grossest
Outrages were committed. American
seamen being. dragged from the decks
of their vessels and impressed into the
royal service. In retaliation, President
Jefferson, in July, 1907, issued a proc
lamation ordering all British vessels to
leave the waters of the United States,
and forbidding any to enter until sat
isfaction for the past, and security for
the future, should be assured; and up
on the meeting of Congress in Decem-
Der, an embargo was laid, detaining ALI
vessels, American and foreign, then in
the ports of the United States, >and or
dering all American vessels home that
were abroad, that the seamen might be
trained for hostilities. Negotiations
were conducted with varying success,
but without any pacifying results. In
the meantime the causes of irritation
increasing, until finally the state of
feeling became so embittered, that in
1871 President Madison, by authority
of Congress, declared war against
Great Britain. The war, which lasted
for period of nearly four years, is
known as the war of 1912, and resulted

Son Raises Company
His son, John Snyder, a mere boy
at the time, without the knowledge of
his father, raised company, he being
chosen captain, took them to Harris
burg, and woke the Governor up in the
early morning hours, presenting his
company of soldiers, all of whom saw
service. This pleased the Governor who
subsequently presented the captain with
handsome sword, made of Damascus
steel, with elaborate handle, and which
is now the property of his grandson,
Thomas Kittera VanDyke, Harrisburg,
Pa, who also has an original war order
dated in 1914 and signed by Governor
Snyder.
Mr.. Van Dyke also owns a picture
of Governor Snyder, which was issued
while he was governor, by John Bnns.
and which was gotten up in an artistic
way, with the coat of arms of the State,
and says: "Simon Snyder, Governor of
the State of Pennsylvania. To the Peo-
pie of Pennsylvania, this portrait of the
Man of their Choice, is respectfully
dedicated by their Fellow Citizen,
