DAVIS AND THE
HTJItLEY THYONS DAMAGE
CASE.
John F. Colburn, Administrator of
tho Estate of Astonc Boss, Appeals
Prom Decision in
Circuit Court.
There seems to be no end in the litigation
of the Superintendent of Public
Works against the Hawaiian Tramways
Company. There are complaints,
answers, affidavits, counter affidavits
and supplemental affidavits. The whole
thing Is more confounding than the
hot weather.
The latest thing In the case is the
supplemental affidavit by William H.
Pain, manager of the company. Falnt
being duly sworn according to law
prevalent -not only here but elsewhere
In America, deposes and says many
things. He says, among other things',
that if the track of the Hawaiian
Tramways Company were to be laid at
the place where the Superintendent cf
rubllc Works directs It to "be laid, between
Richard street and the Gulick
1 jlldiag on King street, the side of the
itreot cars on the upper Bide would run
over the sidewalk three or four inches.
At that point the sidewalk Is very narrow
and women pedestrians, In order
to circumnavigate the
c:rs, would be forced to take the middle
of the thoroughfare to the
of their fluffy summer dresses.
Then, again, full-grown trees; trees
IT at have reached their majority, allow
ouly nine feet width of tho street to
Jay the track In or on. The track requires
fourteen feet of room, not onJ
for the frolicsome mules to glide over
but for the laying of rails.
Ex-Judge Davis legal knowledge is
questioned in the bill of exceptions
filed by the defendant in the case or
liurloy Thyons vs.
Company.
After citing the litigation, tho bill
rays: "The defendant then excepted to

and it is realized that before many
days are passed, all China, with Its

be in a blaze of savage warfare against

Boxers are already reported to be attacking

In Tonquin, which now belongs to
France, but which formerly constituted
part of the Chinese empire, there
has bene an alarming revival of Chinese
outrages and attacks upon the

and of piracy on tho rivers, while Sir
Henry Blake Is stated to have cabled
that without strong relnforcem ;nts he
will be unable to defend the British

not hesitate to assert that with Kowloon

IT WAS SUICIDE.
Coroner's Jury So Decides in the

of W. 13. Miller at Mokuleia ranch near

a case-of suicide pore and simp, e.

the scene of the tragedy yesterday and
and after investigating the
was convinced tbatthe mr n had
killed himself. It isfresbmed (hat he
used a stick of giant powder to end his
life as his bead was blown clean off and
part of it was found several feet away
from the tent through which it had
been blown. From tho fact that no
one knew of the dead man ever aaving
quarrelled with anyone or that ae bad
any enemies It was pretty certaii that
he had not been killed for revenge.
As a sum of money was found in the
tent it was plain that he had net been
killed for gain.
The Deputy Sheriff is of the opinion
that 3Iiller placed the explosive in his
mouth and then exploded it.
The body was buried about thioefeet
from where it was found as it as so
badly decomposed it could not be
carried further.
A coroner's jury impanelled to sit on

Considerable figuring has beec done
by the chief engineer of the Inter-Island
Steam Navigation Comp: ny to
make use of machinery on harj, and
as a result the following change have
been made:
Tho engine which is now beiug taken
out of steamer Iwalani is too pc jverful
for her, from an economical stant point.
It will be sent to tho coast, wher , with
some slight alterations, an increase of
steam pressure and an increase cf
present one indicates horse
power of about 350 will be augmented
to, say 500 horse power, which will then
make it suitable for the required power
for new hull now being const ucted.
The boiler'now being taken out Df the
Iwalani is worn out so it will be thrown
away. The engine and boiler recovered
from tho wreck of the Kilohana, which
is to replace the present outfit nt the
Iwalani, will place the Iwalahi un the
same basis as Niihau. She will have
somewhat less power than her i resent
outfit gives, but her coal consumption,
repairs and attendance will be irreatly
reduced.
Two new boilers of the Scotca type
will take the place of the one being dis
carded. They will make steam lor the
augmented horse power of th new
hull. The Iwalani engine was constructed
by the Risdon Iron Wcrks of
San Francisco a Ions time ago, but it
was so far in advance of its tim ihen
that it will be as neat a job as .ny of
the most modern compound engines
and as strong.
Space will be gained by putti ig the
KHohana outfit into the Iwalmi, as
well as economy.
An engine for the new hull will also'
be gained, which, taken together is the
reason for the changes beiag male.
A great saving in salarioe irill be
made by the change in the Bucninery
in the IwaJani. Her carrying capacity
will be increased by Mffy
tons and. her coal ooB&anption
greatly lessened The speed of the
Iwahml will.be reduced but she will be
sufficiently fast to auke her Ygular
tripe on the old schedule time.
The work of removing her aaachiaery
is going on at the coal wharf. Yfcstory

NEWr YORK, July 17. A Sun cable
from Berlin says:
The Tagliche Rundschau to-day
published a letter written by Professor
von Braen of tne Peking University on
June 6. After describing the growth
of the Boxer trouble, he tells of the
barricading of the Hotel Peking by
foreigners on May 28, and of the wall
surrounding the compound of the
French Legation being broken in one
or two places, In order to afford means
for the women and children to reach
refuge in the event of an expected attack
being made. A number of engineers
who had been wounded in an
attack by the Boxers outside the city
brought the news to Peking of the
danger threatening French railway
officials.
The wives of the latter and the intrepid
wife of the keeper of the Hotel
Peking, an American woman, took
matters in their own hands and organized
a relief expedition consisting
of nine persons. M. Pichon, the French
Minister, secured for the little band a
military escort from the Chinese Government,
and the expedition started
for the relief of the railway officials.
Von Braen describes the anguish of the
defenders of the hotel when Information
had been annihilated, and that this
tion had been annihilated, and this
would give the signal for a general attack
on the town of
for which place the expedition was
bound. Finally the expedition returned,
having successfully accomplished
the object of the mission. Forty
Europeans who had been at Chang-Hsin-Tien
had fought 300 Boxers for
two days and two nights'. The expedition,
whose moving spirit was a lion-hearted
American woman, saved all of
them except five, who were killed.

MRS. GHAMQT WELL MOW H
IN SAN FMNCISCO.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 19. The
plucky young American woman at Peking,
whom foreign dispatches describe
as chiefly instrumental in preventing a
massacre of foreigners, is a well-known
San Francisco girl, the sister of Supervisor
Eugene McCarthy of 565
street and for the past five years
the wife of A F. Charcot, proprietor
of the Peking Hotel and of the only
foreign store in the Chinese capital.
News had come to Peking early in
June of the peril of a company of
French railway officials at the town of
and Mrs. Chamot,
aided by women In the different embassies,
organized a relief expedition
consisting of nine persons, for whom
the French Minister, M. Pichon, secured
a military escort from the Chinese
Government. The interpid California
woman went out as the moving
spirit of the little party. After a prolonged
absence, which became agonizing
to the friends waiting in Peking,
the rescuers returned, bringing wih
them forty Europeans, the survivors
of forty-five, who had fought oft 300
Boxers for two days and two nights.
Mrs. Chamot was Miss Lizzie McCarthy,
a San Francisco girl by birth,
and bv education. On the 15th of lost
March she left thU city to rejoin her
husband in Peking, after a visit of a
year to her mother aaa brother ncre.
She is a fine type of the outdoor, ath

with both rifle and pistol, can row as

her brother's deacripUdB, is absolutely

"When the Imperial Government
finally permitted foreign Ministers to
reside in Peking a concessioa was also
granted for a store to supply their peculiar
needs, and a European hotel became
a. necessity for the
of tourists. From a small alfair
intended as an exclusive accommodation
to the Ministers and their households,
the Peking; Hotel grew to be
quite an establishment.the only foreign
institution In the great city of
2.000,000 people. .A bakeshop became a
necessary part of the hotel, and that
grew to be a regular bakery, supplying
all the legations. The store grew and
maintained a large stock. Upon the
store supplies the legations are now
probably subsisting. There Is more
danger of a lack of ammunition than a
scarcity of food.
"During the Chinese-Japanese war
there was a definite plan among (he legations
to combine for shelter in the
French compoundrwhich Is right next
to the hotel, and to make a hole
through the wall that separates the two
properties. In that way it was believed
the foreigners could survive a siege
and be close to a base of supplies. The
recent telegraphic dispatches indicate
that the foreigners chose to concentrate
in the British compound. If they
sought that shelter they probably had
time to move the supplies from the
store and the hotel and prepare for a
waiting defense. The wells will furnish
sufficient water, though it is of poor
quality, and must be boiled before it
is drinkable.
FOB REFUGEES FROM CHINA.
Contributions Asked for Those Now
in Japan.
A considerable sum of money will be
forwarded to Japan "by thenext steamer
for the Orient, in aid of the refugees
from China. Mr. T. Q. Ihruni says
contributions are coming in slowly so
far, but are expected to pick up after
the stirring details of the recent atrocities
committed in the Flowery King-;
doni are received from the mainland-today.
Besides the contributions re
ceived by Mr. Thrum, a good amount
nas been nandea in to W. w. Hall and
W. L. Hopper. Many of the contributors
to the fund are strangers in Honolulu.
Every mite counts, and it is
hoped that enough mites will be handed
in by beirevolent people of Honolulu
to swell the fund to at least $2000.
Bona Bonds.
Arrangements are abouU completed
for the issue of $200,000 worth of bonds
by the Kona Sugar Co. The bonds
will bear interest at the rate osix per
cent and wilL be due in ten y ears and
payable in Jive years Bishop & Co.
and the Bank of California will place
the bonds, som5of which will be off ered

THE HONOLULU PLMUM
ONE OF THE GREAT PE0PERTI2S
NEAR THE CITY.
Costly Mechanical Equipment That Has
Been Placed on .This Great -
Property.
The Honolulu plantation is one of
the most prosperous In the vicinity of
the city. The growth of the cane is
vigorous and most thrifty. Two years
ago all this land was covered by
and now it is rich in cane and
most productive.
It is a very pleasant drive from Honolulu
to this plantation, notably so
because it leads through the beautiful
and highly cultivated grounds of S. 1.
Damon. No more beautiful introduction
to 'the Honolulu plantation could
be made or desired.
The period for cutting and milling on
this plantation is approaching, and a
magnificent new mill, perhaps the best
on the Islands, Is now in course of
erection. This new mill is 34x78 feet,
inclosed in steel, covered with corrugated
iron. It is a nine-roller mill,
connected with a crusher driven by one
high-pressure Corliss engine of 500
horse-power. The capacity of the mill
will be 150 tons of raw sugar every
twenty-four hours. It is all complete
with Llllle evaporators and three vacuum
pans with the continuous coil
system. There Is a Demlng apparatus
for clarification, twenty crystalllzera
and sixteen centrifugals
for extractlnFmolsture from the sugar.
There, are twelve filter presses,
about 3600 square feet of filtering
surface.
The plant Is equipped with, six Heine
water-tube safety boilers, each with a
capacity of 250 horse-power. All these
lead into one smokestack 150 feet high,
being- self-contained and lined with
brick.
This magnificent plant la equipped
with all modern pumps, sugar conveyors,
packers and so on.

ITIM, DIED OF NWrHIE NHL
What the Result of Mr. Storey's Examination
of the Stomach Bavealed Found One
Grain of Morphine.
Kane, the last vf tim of the Palolo disaster; died of morphine poison
ing. It was not gin l ; r yet kahuna unless kahuna served the poison that
killed Kane.
Mr. Shorey the stomach, and his tests have developed that polsoa
was used intentions, y or unlntenQonaily and that the evidence is In sight
to prove murder.
Dr. Garvin haspv.blicly proclaimed the fact that morphine poison was
found In Kane's stoach.
Mr. Shorey, the tiemist of the Beard of Health, when seen at his residence
last evening, said: "Yt3. I fouri'l morphine in Kane's stomach. Enough
to kill? I can't say. I found norphiae, perhaps a grain, but the system
might have absorbed more. I; is my judgment that Kane died of morphine
poisoning."
This being true, what Is the, Police Department doing? Where are their
detectives? Looking for murderers or watching flimsy violations of the
law?
Kane is dead. He was one of eight; eight that hare died. It was supposed
that all of these had died, either from alcoholism or a malarial condition.
It is now proved that Kane died by opium poisoning. That being true,
the presumption is reasonable that all the other deaths were due to the same
cause.
"I am still at wojk on the contents of the stomach of Kane, and hopo
to complete the analy s soon," said Mr. Shorey. "Dr. Garvin Is quite right;
I found the poison, brt I have not goue sufficiently far to tell the whole
truth. Such examlnat." cs cannot be made In a day, you know. I discovered
the morphine poison incidentally. I was really not looking for it, but it
came in the tests, and :herefore, It has to stand."
Dr. Garvin made ( e assertion in the open Board of Health that poison
had been found in tht body of Kane. The statement caused no commeut.
It passed as a matter .f course, because, perhaps, of the lordly manner and
superior bearing of t.e executive officer of the board. He said, after tha
meeting was over: ""iesl told the truth; we found the morphine poison.
And I have nothing else to say."
Meantime, doesn't this case suggest tOj the Board of Health a cause for
action? ""
. Are the lives of people of any consequence," kahuna or no kahuna?
If Kane died of poison, then tho presumption is reasonable that the other
seven Palolo colonists also died by the poisoners' art perhaps a kahuna.
The Board of Hea.th yesterday scarcely listened to Dr. Garvin's report.
That may have been due to hl3 man nerism the way In which he presented
the matter but surely it was entitled to consideration to larger and better
treatment
bury's government has been, on the
whole, a singular disapj,ointment; ana
that for the future two men alone wil
count in public life M.-. Chamberlaic
and Lord Rosebery.
Lord Rosebery Is the n!y man whose
unrivaled knowledge of ifalrs and cynical
experience of sta jsmen, whose

He Is the only i .an who t

Side-Arms for tl o Army.
Although the finding of the Board
of Army Ordnance Ofllc rs convened t
the Springfield Arsenal .o decide upon
the most efQclent and improved side
arm for the army hav. not yet been,
disclosed, it is stellevet. f om practical
tests recently conducted that the verdict
will be in. favor of an improved
automatic pistol and doing away with
the "revolver. The objeu in view ha.
been to secure a p!s;ol constructs'
without the revolver feature, as experience
In the service has proved that
an escapement of gas upon the dis
charge of the cartridge in the case o-revolver
decreases thf velocity wirts
which the bullet shouM be delivered
The practical trials wich have beit
held have borne out this theory, and
the adoption of the ad autageous feature
that the- magaxin can bo
charged with one operatl.cn, as
against the slow insert ti of catiridgeii
into the revolver cylin w. Is a strong
