TAD POLEB
NEARLY beaten

Senator M. c. Pacheco OF Oahu does
not want the present session to 90

lature."
His passing remark this afternoon
that former legislature had come to
bear the title lady dog" and a motion
to table house bill for the protection
of frogs and tadpoles brought five
other senators to HIS support.
Lively and good-humored argument
arose over the question, the motion to
table finally being lost by, bare mar
gin OF one. Those who opposed the
measure were Senators Pacheco, Hind,
A.akekau, Mikaele, Robinson and
Quinn.

MEN RE ARRESTED
.CHARGEDWITHTHEFT
Plumbers Opium Cache Leads
To Suspicion That Iron Works
Employees Stole Fittings

A. Coakley and II. Harrison, formerly
employed as watehmen at the Honolulu
Iron Works, and charges Of first de.
gree larceny against whom are at pres.
ent being Investigated by the terrific.
rial grand jury, we're re-arrested yes
terday afternoon and held at the police
station. They were committed for trisl
in the police court October 25.
The two men were arrested short
time ago on charge of having robbed
the iron works of large quantity Of
hose, lead, pipe 6ttings and other ma.
terial, valued at several hundred dol.
lars. .a
Customs officials a few days ago re.
ceived quiet tip that IL they visited
the premises Of Fugiwara, plumber
doing business on Beretania Street, and
hunted under the house, they might
find something of interest.
Fugiwara was a few days ago con.
victed of smuggling opium of the value
of $4,000 into Honolulu and the case
has been continued for sentence. ~
Customs and police officers visited
the premises Of Fugiwara and after
digging about for some time unearthed
a heavy box, which they felt certain
contained opium. On opening 1t II was
found TO contain several hundred
pounds Of lead, which has been iden.
tilted as the property of the Honolulu
Iron Works. N.F
Other Japanese plumbers shops
were visited and in several Of these
lead-pipe fittings and other articles used
in the plumbing business were discov.
cred, and which have since been iden-
tilted rs the property Of the iron works.
II is on suspicion of having stolen
all this property that Coakley and Har-
rison were again arrested. ".
The men are said by the police to
have exercised considerable ingenuity
in disposing of the stolen property.
The Japanese purchasers when placing
their orders thought that they were
dealing directly with the iron works
but in some way the two men are
said TO have intercepted the orders and
filled them themselves with material al,
legged to have been stolen. Coakley and
Harrison are then said. according to the
police, 70 have collected personally for
the articles and metal supplied. ,u
That one or both of the men has
been doing a large and prosperous bust.
ness along these illicit lines is evidenced
the police say, by the fact that Har.
rison. who as a Waterman received pay
at the rate Of $3.50 day, is said to
be in possession Of an account with q
local hank for $1,000. In
