O&D BURGLARY AT
NEWFOLDEN SUNDAY

Newfolden, the peaceful little vii
lage that nestles SO snugly on the
banks of Middle River very near to
the geographic center of Marshall
county, was the scene of daring
burglary on Sunday last. About
i three O'clock in the afternoon two
loaded automobiles rolled into town
and. after circling around on the
pnineipal streets, STONED in front Of
he residence of Carl Hanson, cashier
Of the new Peoples State Bank, A
knock at the front door revealed the
fact that no one was at home. Then

no better result. At last a window
h leading to the basement was found

cryKled young man, WHO had ac-
81 aired some acrobatic stunts when
e LAYING football. Well inside the
building, he hastened to the front
door and opened it from the inside.
The occupants Of the two cars then
entered and proceeded to ransack the
house. They were in no hurry to
leave as they staid long enough to
make coffee and eat all the cake and
cookies found in the pantry. After
having done all this mischief, the
ringleader of the intruders, who is
also an artist, had the audacity to
make and leave pencil sketch show
in the exact manner in which the
bold burglary had been committed
and also giving the names Of those
who participated. Of course they
were all from Warren. Here are the
names: Mr.. and Mrs. Nels E. By
strom and son Gerald, Mr.. and Mrs.
Hans Mitgard, Mr.. and Mrs. John P.
Mattson and daughter Edith and

proceeded to the farm Of Andrew H

tion sent the Chamber Of Commerce by
Iieut.-ccl. r. Frank Cheatham, the de-
paItinent quartermaster, e."
The "buy,at-home" policy has al
ways been in force with the army here
when contract figures were equal, or
nearly equal TO these of mainland
firms, but now extra consideration is
to be given to Honolulu merchants and
business men. -. =. -.
What are known as Glass A quar-
termaster supplies will be advertised
here as well as in continental United
States, where bids have already been
submitted, and the price f. o. b. San
Francisco, plus the freight from that
point to Honolulu, will be used in COM
parisen with local bids, which are still
to be made. Owing to the fact that
local merchants can bring goods from
ffeightage than the same goods can be
shipped to San Francisco. by rail and
thence by water freight to Honolulu it
is, believed that the local trade has a
slight advantage. @ .....e
In short, the Honolulu merchants
are being given the opportunity to
meet mainland prices. The quarter
master here has not received the fig
ures submitted by mainland firms but
there is no special secrecy about them
and If they are received they will prob
ably be given out In the meantime,
it is likely that they have been made
public in San Francisco, in which case
all a prospective bidder win have to
do win be to get the prices from his
coast representative.

plies. The present arrangement Is new
in that It gives local merchants a
chance at the entire contract and also
that they have a chance of meeting
prices instead of bidding in the dark.
1t looks to me as though canal trans
portation might enable them to meet
the figures and still make good profit.
cant say how much this entire con-
tract will amount to, because the
amount of supplies varies, but it totals
a considerable sum during the year.
One advantage that the army will
get from an arrangement by which
contracts for this class Of supplies go
to local merchants, is that the firms
here will act as storekeepers for the
government Instead or getting a large

END OF TEN DAYS
Thousands of Laborers Will Be

Slight Gain in Quantity This
Season, With Prospect of
Slightly Lower Prices

Oahu pineapple factories are begin
ming to get into full swing for the
rush of the busy season. Though can
ming began several weeks ago to, ac-
commodate the earlier fruits, the sea-
son will not be in full blast until 10
days from nov. 49,.
A general canvass of the cannerieS
of the city elicits the information that
while prices are slightly lower than
last year. the grade of fruit promises
as good yield as last year, or per-
haps even a better one. The quality
of fruit this year is especially fine.
II is the general opinion that the pre-
vailing prices will be or cents
lower on each case. This, however,
will not materially affect the prices
to the consumer
The Hawaiian Pineapple Company
for some weeks has been running the
regular nine and a half-hour day, with
occasional overtime During the busy
season when the ripe fruit must be
taken care Of, night running will have
to be the rule. Eight tables are now
being used, which number will be
doubled when the busy season starts
The output here will be perhaps 10
per cent larger than last year. The
company employs from 1000 to 100
men and women, boys and girls,
These are of all races, but the Fill
pinos and Japanese probably predom
mate The company produces. most
of the fruit which is canned. The
pineapple fields are at Wahiawa,

of the work there is done between
May and December. The output ex-
pected is about the same as on pre-
ceding years, depending largely on the
demand and the amount of fruit sent
in
On the windward side of the island
the pine crop comes on several weeks
earlier Most of the crop there is
handled by the Libby, McNeill & Lib.

on that side. The outputs from this
cannery and the local one are on the
average about the same. This COM
pany employs between 700 and $50
workers at each of the two canneries

the present time This company will
put on about 500 employees. It's av-.

The total output from all the islands
last year was 100000 cases. Oahu
is the biggest producer of the group,
Maui and Kauai coming next in inn

year sent in 350,000 or 100000 cases.

MAVERICK MAY Be
TAKING GUNS FOR

Cargo of Mystery Ship Seems
to- Have Originated With !,
German Agents in States

That the American steamer Maver-
ick figures prominently in an alleged
plot of German agents in the United
States to ship arms and ammunition
to India, via Java, for the purpose Of
melting a revolt of the East Indians
against the British, is the report which
has gained wide circulation on the
coast, according to officers of the Pa
cific Mail liner Persia which arrived
from the mainland last night. "
Summed UP, the report is that the
Maverick and the Annie Larsen sailed
from Coast ports for Mexican waters;
that there the two ships we're to meet
and the Annie Larsen transfer her
cargo of arms and ammunition to the
Maverick, the latter ship to proceed
with the war supplies to Java, which
is Dutch territory. Then, according
to the report, the arms and ammuni-
tion delivered at Java were to be
transhipped to India or the Straits
Settlements. Soon after the mutiny
of the native troops in India and the
Straits few months ago, the Eng
lish charged that two German officers
who had escaped their vigilance had
llClJ6u IlS revolt. L HIS ulullIly udu
gained considerable headway before it
was suppressed by the British troops
. Before the Persia left the coast, a
large consignment of guns and ammu-
milton he'd been shipped to Batavia,
lava, on the Dutch steamer Djember.
This gives a new angle to the Maver-
ick stories. 1t may be, according to
the Persia officers theory. that the
guns and ammunition shipped to Java
are intended for re-shipment to Hol-
land and thence to Germany This is
believed by some because Of the fact
that a Dutch steamer was employed
for the latter shipment ~-..:.
Through the officers of the Persia it
was learned today that the Maverick
cleared San Francisco for San Jose
de Cabe manned by German seamen.
When the ship arrived at Hilo it was
manned largely by South Sea island
ers. What has become of the German
seamen is a matter for speculation.
The ship was operating under orders
from Fred .Jebsen, who has for many
months, according to common infOr-
nation, acted under orders from the
German government. ."s. 49,. 49,.
