Question Asked by Clerk
of a St. Louis
Church.
KNOWN TO HAVE BEEN
IN STATE OF CALIFORNIA
Came to Honolulu and May Hav6
Gone to Japan and New Zea
land Wrote Article on
Insects.
The clerk of i--e Hrst Congregation'
al Church of St Louis, Mo, has sent
to a gentleman In this city a letter In
quiring ns to the whereabouts of Oliv
er Buxton, who Joined the church nam
ed In 18C1 and who continued In act'
ho work thcro for many years. The
full text of the communication Is as
follows :
Mrs. 12. T Roa, a member of our
church, gave me our name as one
who might possibly bo nblo to aid me
In an attempt to locate one of our old
members who has dropped out of
touch with us and whom we hao not
succeeded In reaching by mall or otb,
crwlso for some years.
1 refer to Mr Oliver W. liuxton, who
joined our church early in 1861 and
was for oars an active, consistent
member. lining socral oirices In our
organization, though alwajs very mod
est and retiring Ho was for years in
the printing and stationery business In
tills city, was quite successful, anu
ins name still stands at tho head of
cine of our prominent firms, viz Tho
liuxton fc Skinner Stationery Corn
pan), although his Interest therein has
been completely withdrawn, and Mr.
Skinner knows nothing of his present
whereabouts.
Ills name still appears on our list,
though in accordance with our rules It
might have been dropped years ago,
but whenever the question arises somu
of his old friends who remember his
good works In times past, object to
this action. In the hope tnat ho may
yet be heard from.
After Mr. liuxton left the city, some
eight or tin years ago, ho correspond
ed for a while with arlous pcoplo
here, and In that way wo knew of his
presence for a whllo In San Pranclsco.
Cal., then In the northern part of Cali
fornia, where he had property, and
then in Honolulu, and It Is In the hope
that he may have made himself known
to )ou or aided In somo way In our
work and thus would bo remembered
by jou, that I trouble jou in this mat
ter. It was while in the Hawaiian Isl
ends, I think, that ho Is said to hae
lome into prominence by a newspaper
article which lie wrote relatlvo to
tome Insect which has caused troublo
with crops In tho Islands Just what
the article was I do not know, nou-r
having read It
There Is a rumor that he visited Ja
pan and that lie had oven gono to
New Zealand, but as I said before, I
iiavo not been aide to find anyone who
has heard a word directly from him
for a long time.
So far as I can learn, the last offl
clal communication our church has
had from him was when he wrote to a
former clerk of the church asking htm
to have his name dropped I have
been unable, to locate this letter, and
do not know its date or address, but
have learned that the clerk answered
that he knew It would bo useless to
present sucli n request, as the church
would not grant it, etc. Meaning, of
course, that the church was so fond
or him that it would bo unwilling to
loso him lrom its membership; but I
fear that tills it-ply was not under
stood by Mr liuxton, who was a very
peculiar man, exceedingly sensitive,
und who seems to have taken pains to
lose himscir uttcily. and In this ho has
succeeded thoroughly so fai as wo
mo concerned
Mr liuxton ns I remember him, was
(all and spare and had dark complex
ion and black hair. Ho was exceed
ingly generous always contributing
to help along n good cause or a worthy
perhon, hut doing his good deeds In n
very modest, unostentatious manner
You may wonder why I do not nd
vertlsoforMi liuxton I would do so
gladly, only for the fear of theicby of
lending him If such a stop should bo
successful In locating him Yours
verj lesptctfully,
II 13. KNOX. Clerk.
The gentleman who received tho let
ter has mwdo diligent Inquiry about
town but has been unable, so far, to
gain any Infoimatlon whatever It
was far this reason that lie asked the
Iliilletln to publish tho letter In the
hopo that there might be n more suc

Tho Washington Times of Jan 11
gives tho following rovlow of President
Roosevelt and Secretary Hoot's opin
ions on Cuban reciprocity
President Hoosovelt and Secretary
Hoot will opposo any compromise
measure providing for n tariff rebate on
Cuban products.
They aro determined to accept noth
ing else than n reciprocal tariff ar
rangement, which will give to Cuban
products coming Into tho United States
the same concessions as Cuba may glvo
to Amrrlcnn product
Secretary Iloot bcllovea further that
whatever legislation is adopted should
conform strictly to tho third section of
tho Dlnglcy tariff act.
In Secretary Root's opinion, con
siderations of public policy alono
should govern tho formation of any
plans for Cuban tariff concessions. Ho
docs not look for nny result from the
efforts of Individuals to reach a com
promise on the subject
It can be said emphatically that tho
Secretary Is absolutely opposed to any
efforts at compromise, and has given
no consideration to tho questions of
compromise, and will give none.
There Is no doubt whatever that this
view of the subject Is entertained by
both tho President and General Wood.
President Roosevelt has consulted free
ly with Secretary Root on tho question
of tariff concessions for Cuba, and fully
approves of the Ideas advanced by the
Secretary of War.
The proposed lebato measure for one
year agreed upon by Mr Oxnard and
Mr. Pavey does not meet with their ap
proval, and will probably not he pre
sented to Congress.
Secretary Root is particularly oppos
ed to Che rebate idea for one year,
which will leave tho question still un
settled nt the end of tho year, and re
quire further legislation.

There will soon be n merry war on In
the ranks of the Chinese United So
ciety which mnj possibly lead to the
complete reorganization of that body
of Chlnee, a consummation devoutly
wished for by those members who havei
come out In open declaration against
the- legnlltj of the election of officers
held on the first day of tlm new year.
Plght has been declared and. In tho
light of developments made public to
day fight It will now he to the bitter
end
It will be remembered that, at the
election referred to u set ot officer!
wns chosen, the men idee ted being In
favor of running the affairs of the so
ciety in tho old way which obtained
for somo seventeen jears nnd which
never wns areordlng to tho charter
granted h) the government There wero
present nt the meeting a number of
joung Chinese) business men of tlm
c Itj who made strenuous objection to
what they deemed n hlgh-hnnded meth
od of procedure The offers elected
were men who, when Bow Wonglsm, of
it-form was started In the city had
decided to do nwnj with the old meth
ods and adopt the new. When they de
clared themselves In favor of running
the Chlneso United Society on the old
plan there was naturally n vigorous
kirk on tho pnrt of the fellows who
scorned backsliding
However, numbers prevailed and tlm
joung men who wanted the affairs car
ried on according to tho dictates of tho
charter were snowed under. This only
spurred them on to further action nnd,
as quickly ns It could be dono, the facta
wero presented to Treasurer Wright
who today sent tho petitioners the fol
lowing opinion
