Marked Change of Ideas
Since the Former
Discussion.
KAHN BILL SEEMS
TO HAVE TDE CALL
Committee on Foreign Relations Finds
Bill Acceptable Discussion
of Effect on Trade With
China.
Washington, Dec. 18. The House
Committee on Foreign Relations held
an Important meeting today and con
sidered tho subject of Chinese, exclu
sion In an informal way. Chairman
Jlltt announced an entire change of
heart on the subject, coming out
Htrongly for exclusion. The delega
tion representing ths American
Asiatic Association of New York ap
peared before tho committee and
inado a protest against a too rigorous
exclusion bill, on the ground that It
would affect commerce with China.
John Foord, secretary of the associa
tion, laid Btrcss on the point that Chi
nese merchants should be permitted
lo enter the country In order to buy
goods.
Ho admitted, after discussion, that
'' the exclusion act would not work Im
mediate harm to commerce, but feared
that when the awakening of China
nmo thcro would bo a protest from
the higher classes and merchants. The
committee was Inclined to leave that
bridge to bo crossed when China
awakened.
Herman Gutstedt, representing the
American Federation of Labor, was
also before tho committee and advo
ated rigorous exclusion. It was ap
parent that tho commlttco was In fa
wr of rigorous measures. Chairman
llltt Bald: "Why, tho Chlneso are now
sneaking In over tho northern and
houthern borders, breaking the laws.
Wo must have a law that will exclude
trsBu"..
" It Is certain that the bill framed by
thu Pacific Coast members known ns
tho Kahn bill, will be tho one taken
un by tho committee to be reported
Tho sub-commtttoo of the Pacific
) Coast Representatives In charge of
1 the Kahn exclusion bill met again
l today. Assistant Attorney General
Mloyt. who is thoroughly posted on the
exclusion laws, was witn mo commit
tee. Ho had tho bill in his possession
and went over It carefully and gave
his opinion that It was constitutional
nnd sound. The? Department of Jus
tiro favors tho Khun bill, with amend
ments offered by Coombs, because It is
n practical codification of tho exclu
sion measures, and slmpllfllcs pro
ceedings In all actions looking townrd
thu exclusion and deportation of Chi
nese. Representative Schlrm of Baltimore
Informed Representative. Kahn today
that the Maryland delegation had held
n caucus on Chinese exclusion, and
had decided to stand by tho California
members in any bill thoy might intro
duce. Eastern and Sotunern members
havo assured Kahn that they are ready
to vote for his bill, while tho opposi
tion, If any, has failed to mako Itself
apparent.
Several California Congressmen
have received notes from tho commit
tee on Chinese exclusion appointed
by tho Exclusion Convention held In
San Francisco In October, requesting
them to hold un the Kahn bill until
thu committee could arrive claiming
that tho hill was too drastic, and that
better action would bo to work for tho
1 1! enactment of the Geary bill. Tho
icfercuco to Qcary was unfortunate.
aa the California Congressmen are
convinced that tho late convention was
a political Job, In which Geary was
tho main figure, trying to rehabilitate
himself. The committee has not yet
arrived, though one or two members
are on the ground. They found their
occupation gone.

JAPANESE ATTACKED AND
TIED UP A HAWAIIAN
Cowardly Act at Kamoiliili Tuesday
Night-- J. Lekahio, Pasture
i Keeper, Tells Story
to Police.
J. Kekahio was at the police station
early this forenoon complaining to the
authorities about the actions of a num
ber of Japanese last Tuesday night.
This Is the story he told and It la no
doubt the truth, for the native is well
known as a respectable, peaceable and
truthful citizen:
"I am the keeper of the Neumann
rasture in Kamoiliili. I was awakened
late Tuesday night by the nolsa of
horses running about In the yard. I
ran oui to see what was the matter
nnd , fearing that tho gate might bo'
open and that the stock might have
escaped, I saddled my horse and pro
ceeded nt once to Investigate.
"1 found that the gate was Indeed
open and that thcro were several head
of strange stock in the yard. I had
just started to diie them out when I
wai- seC upon by SI' teen or twenty Ja
ponesc, evidently the owners of the
animals. They bc.it mo almost ,rto In
sensibility and then lied rr.o to t!ia
fence, where I remained all night.
"In flio morning, iny friends, locat
ing me, untied tho ropes nnd set ma
free. Evidently, tho Japancsa had been
keeping watch for they set upon me
and my companions and there was a
terlrble fight. Other natives arrived
with blacksnakes and the cowards of
Japanese turned tall, retreating pell
mcll. The Japaneso give as an excuse
for beating be that they were of the
opinion that I was bent on stealing
their stock."
A warrant for the arrest ot nine ot
the Japanese has been issued and they
will be arrested today. Kekahio can
identify every one of them.
At the meeting of the Governor's
council this morning, a protest -was
cubmltted from two property owners
on tho new Walklkl road against per
mitting the Rapid Transit tracks to
be laid along that thoroughfare. Af
ter some discussion tho matter was
postponed to a special meeting tomor
row. The objections wero that the
eletrlc cars would congest travel and
destroy the value of tho road as a
popular driveway.
On the strength of an adverse peti
tion, Treasurer W. H. Wright was ad
vised against granting a light wine and
beer license to one Moore In Nuuanu
valley..
It was also voted to refuse a deal
er's license to II. Mlkl at Kckaha, Kuu
al. Ah Hoy, at Katlua, Hawaii, fared
better, being recommended for a re
tail liquor license In place ot his ex
plrlng light wlno and beer license.

Is Same Measure Before
Congress Last Session.
Washington, I). C, Dec. 14. (Spe
cial) Delegato Wilcox has Introduced
bills In the Houso providing tor erec
tion of Federal buildings at Hljo and
Honolulu. Tho former calls for an
appropriation ot $200,oOO; the latter for
11,000,000. It Is believed tho present
Congress will bo very liberal In th
matter of granting public buildings,
and that the needs of Hawaii in thti
respect will bo given consideration.
Delegate Wilcox also introduced n
bill relating to the retirement of Ha
waiian coinage and currency. It is
Identical with the bill introduced at
the last session ot Congress and is as
follows:
Be it enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives ot tho United
States of American In Congress assem
bled, That tho silver coins that wero
coined under tho laws nt Hawaii, when

superintendent of the said mint shall
pay such coins, at their face value, to
the proper agent or officer of tho gov
ernment depositing tho same, the sum

the United States. The expenses of

the Hawaiian Islands shall bo borne
equally by tho United States and tho

g'ee. 3. That any collector of customs

If ho Is so directed by tho Secretary of

person desiring to make such ex
change, for coins of the government
of Hawaii, at their face value, when the
same arc not abraded below the lawful
standard of circulation, and the Treas
urer ot tho United States, under tho
direction ot tho Secretary ot tho
Tieasury, Is authorized to deposit such
sliver coins of the United States aa
shall be necessary with the collector
of customs or of Internal revenue at
Honolulu or at any Government deposi
tory for the purposo of making such
exchange under such regulations as ho
may prescribe.
Sec. 4. That any Bllvcr coins struck
by the government of Hawaii that arc
mutilated or abraded below such stan
dard may bo presented for recolnago at
nny mint In tho United States by the
person owning tho samo, or his or her

and such owner shall bo paid for such
coins, by the superintendent of tho
mint, the bullion valuo per troy ounco
of tho fine silver they contain, In stan
dard silver coin of the United States.
Sec. 0. That silver coins heretofore
strurk by the government of Hawaii
shall continue to be legal tender for
debts In the Territory ot Hawaii, In ac
cordance with the laws ot the Repubu
of Hawaii, until the first day of Jan
uary, 1903,' and not afterwards.
Sec. 6. That no seigniorage, or mint
duese, or charges shall be made or re
talned tor tho coinage of the silver
coins ot the United States under the
provisions ot this Act.
Sec. 7. That any silver certificates
heretofore issued by the government
of tho Hawaiian Islands, Intended to be
circulated as money, shall bo redeemed
by the Territorial governnWnt of Ha
waii on or before the first day of Jan
uary, 1904, nnd after that date It shall
be unlawful to circulate the samo as
money
Sec. 8. That nothing in this Act con
tained shall bind the United Slates to
rodeem nny sliver certificates Usued by
the government of Hawaii, or any all-
i ver coin issued by such government,
except In tho manner nnd upon tho con-
dltlons stated In this Act for tho re
rolnngo of Hawaiian silver..
Sec. 9. That tho collector of customs
(or the district of Hawaii Is hereby au
thorized to deposit nil collections made

reach tho mnttcr of Hawaiian appoint
ments within a week. Attorney Cay
pless and Dclegato Wilcox called upon
the Attorney General today and wilt
call upon the President early next
week. In the Attorneyship matter the

ed upon the Attorney Gontral yester
day in the Interest ot R. W. Breckons.

ATTACK TWO OFFICERS
There was trouble last night In tho
Japanese theater, situated at the cor
ncr of River and Pauahl streets. The
crowds at tho place and the' delay In
getting information to tho police sta
tion, prevented the police from captur
ing any of those concerned.
The two special police officers detail
ed for duty at the theater Wm. Leh
mann and Gustav Anderson were at
tho door as usual. Tho theater was
crowded long before tho time set for
tho performance to begin. On tbo out
side wero about two hundred more Ja
panese, clamoring for admission. The
police officers would not allow any
more to enter the door.
It was at this point that the Japan
ese on the outside began to demand
entranco in nngry tones. The. police
persisted in their duty and soon Leh-
mann found himself on tho ground.
He has no Idea who hit him tor tho
blow came from behind. Anderson was
hit In (he head with n stone 'and felled
to the ground, a gaping wound with
blood spurting therefrom being his
payment for attending to tho duties
prescribed to him by his superiors.
Lehmnnn, when ho recovered, ran
to the police station for help and Cap
tains Parker and Kanae responded
As was expected, the cowardly fellows
who never attack unless they happen
to be in overwhelming numbers, had
slunk away In the darkness, leaving no
one but the Japanese doorkeepers, so,
of courso, nothing could bo done,
Mlther I.chmann nor Anderson can
Identify any ot the men who attacked
them bcrauso the crowd was so great.
