You may Investigate these saloons and the license under wnicu tney are uoing badness, which according to the deci sion mentioned are Illegally issued 11 The question of the effect ( Katea decision is being much discussed in Honolulu today. The Grand jury Is at present busy with routine criminal mat ters, but It will take up the saloon busi ness later, and then the question . of how the Primo men have licenses. to sell will come up. The injunctlontfranted by Estee does not go farther than to restrain Treasurer Wright from issuing more licenses, it Is clamed by Judge SUllman, who represents the brewery Klde of the controversy, and even this order Is not effective during the pen. ilency of an appeal. It was not the intention of the Ter ritory 1 issue any more licenses just now, all applications having been re fused recently, but in a few months the matter of renewing thase now out would m up, and Estee's order, if effective, .prevents this, it Is claimed. The first of the licenses were granted in July last year. The malt liquor law may be another Issue on which the Territorial and Fed eral courts here disagree. It appears to be likely that they will have a chance, for report has it that Robert son and Wilder and J. J. Dunne, coun sel for the liquor men who are lighting the special Honolulu beer licenses, are considering ways and means of clos ing up the saloons that are being run under licenses which Estee has practi cally declared to be no licenses at all. The matter will then get Into the Cir cuit court here and the Territorial Su pieine court, on the same points which Be tee has just decided. The attorneys for the representatives f the foreign breweries claim that Judge Estee's injunction and decision are effective at once, and that all the Primo saloons will have to close. "The Injunction applies to the licenses already out." said A. G. M. Robertson, 'as well as to the Issuance of more. To allow a license to run on Is Just the same as Issuing It day after day, and Is a violation of the order of the court. "The men who represent the Eastern breweries do not want to shut up the other places or to stop the" Honolulu .brewery. All they want is to be on an even footing with them. There Is no doubt that the law which Judge Estee decided against, discriminated against them and was unconstitutional. The Territorial courts have already held a similar Hawaiian law to be invalid." J. J. Dunne, also counsel for the East ern Hrewerlef, takes the same view, that ltetee's decision means the closing of the Primo saloons. "It is for the Territorial oftlolals to act now," he said. "We have nothing to do with what course they take. To sell under the licenses which Judge Estee has declared against is to sell without a license." AS OTHERS SEE US.

Involving the I title to Quarantine jsiimi, was tnie morning ordered Aranaferrad to the United tales District Court, by Judge Humphrey, on motion or Attorney J. J. Dunne. The caae waa brought in the Territorial court against Cofer as an Individual, to eject him from the isl and. It waa claimed, however, that Cofer merely held the land aa a federal official, and that the real defendant waa the United States. On this snowing Judge Humphrey ordered the caae transferred to the federal court and it will now be brought before Judge Ea tee. In the case of John KIdwell vs. Frank Godfrey, Judge Humphreys sustained a demurrer. The caae involves land titles in the estate of Theonhitus Metcalf. W. R. Sims, administrator of the es tate of Kate It. Sim appeared In court In answer to a petition filed by Bishop & Company, asking for an order directing him to pay a Joint note by himself and wife, from the funds of the estate. Judge Humphreys took the other view, however. He held that as the note was for 81ms. under Hawaiian statutes the wife could not be held responsible for It and her estate was not chargeable with it, even though she had signed the note. Sims testified that he had not intended to pay It out of the estate unless the court forced him to do so. and that he had delayed making an accounting of the affairs of the estate In order to pay the sum himself first. The court made an order directing him, as admlnistra tor, not to pay the money.

HEAVY KONA HERE STRONG WIND STIRRING VP THE HARBOR. Only Three Departures Were Made To- Day The Hark S. C. Allen Left for San Francisco. Without exception, the heaviest kona that has been experienced In Honolulu this winter is now prevailing. The wind has been blowing from the south for the past four days and this morning It Increased to quite a stiff breeze. The sen is breaking over the reef and inside the harbor the win 1 is lashing the water Into whltccaps. Quite a number of the Island schoon ers were to have sailed this afternoon for various ports, but owing to the bad weather, all remained lashed tight and fast to the wharves, waiting until the wind will subside. There were only three departures during the day. The little tug Kaena started shortly after K o'clock in the morning for Pearl Har bor. At noon Captain Johnson of the bark S. C. Allen got awai for San Francisco . The services of both the Fearless and the Eleu were called upon to get the fcark out of tho Wilder slip. The Allen was deep loaded with sugar. Captain Marx, assistant Irtirbor master, super intended the work of getting '.er out side into the channel. The Eleu took a slern line and pulled the bark straight out from the slip across the channel. The wind caught the bark and be"-m slewing her inshore. Th? Eleu held her up, however, while the Fearless took the bow line. When Captain Brokaw had the bow line rfMly, Captain JlcAlIster let go th stern line and the Fearless started out of the harbor with the bark, the tow being without furuther Incident. The Chilian barkentine Alta Is to lpave this afternoon for Port Angeles. There are comparatively few vessels c.nehored In the stream now, but those which are have been secured with ad ditional stern lines and unless the wind increases to an unusual degree, no dan ger of any of the boats getting loose is apprehended. It is regarded as more than probable, however, that the wind still be blowing tomorrow. No Island steamers were scheduled to depart today, but the weather has not been sufficiently rough to have caused them to remain In port. The southerly winds will cause the Allen to get a fine start to San Fran clsco It Is anticipated that she will make a very speedy trip. All of tho sf.lllng vesrels which were becalmed off aioioaai last sunuay nave caugm me southerly winds and are now well on their way to northern ports.

The auggeation has 1ean made that in the aporta to coma oft at the big field day to be held for the banMt of the Dor's Brlamde. In addition to the reauiar eventa the old sport ot rolling the ulu malka, once ao prevalent among the Hawaliana be revived. The ulu malka were poilshd discs of atone aome alx Inchea in diameter, and lierhaps an Inch and a half in thickness slightly covex on the aides. The snort was very similar to that of the ancient Hellenic custom of throwing tho discs and some philologists have added this custom, with the shape of the Hawaiian helmets, wreath giving, and other na tional traits, to the evidences from which they endeavor to trace the Ha waiian and allied races to a primary Greek and Persian origin. The ulu malka were always brought out at any gathering where feats of skill and strength were to be exhibited among the Hawallans. Local cham pion from far and near would gather to show their skill and many were the wagers on the outcome. The polished stones were hurled with all the force and skill of the thrower who assumed In his cast a pose that must have been al most identical with that or the well known statue of the "Discobolus throw- The polished atones would rush along the smooth track passing all competi tors or lingering behind the foremost. Standing with tense muscles, the thrower remained Immovable while the excited multitude, lined up along the specially prepared track would endeavor to keep apace with the swiftly rushing dlBc shouting aloud as it passed other stones, now lying still at their Jour ney's end, or perhaps through some un skillful twist at the moment of delivery, I turning aside from the oath at the mo ment or triumph, and spreauing mo mentary consternation for their shins among the crowd who laughed at the discomfited athlete. The strength used In throwing the discs may be lmagned by the length of the track which was prepared. Gover n r Dole this morning In approving the suggestion, stated that he had seen tracks prepared for the game ot twelve hundred yards length. "I believe," said he, "that the length of the throw was not the onlv test. If I remember rightly sticks were set up t-t the end of the track betw.tm wblch the dio had to pass to achieve the victory. Other wltnessea of this sport corrobo rate the length of the casts, adding that one disc would somethlmes be so skill fully hurled as to throw out of the path a competitor that lay In the center of the track, and still come between the sticks. At hums and native festivals the spol't seems to have been practised In a modified form by the younger men and maidens. The connection between disc throw ing, quoits, the Scotch curling game and even the shove halfpenny of English inns, shuflle board and similar games allies the disc throwing sport in more or less modified and distorted form with all nationalities and ages. The Hawaiian sport was magnificent exercise and seems to have died out with the present generation. The mod ern Hawaiian youth would prove a poor hand at spear throwing or hurling the discobolus even six hundred yards with out a great deal of practice, but a great many have urged the taking up of tho latter sport and suggest the field day as an opportunity for Its revival. A level trar;k could be easily prepared and for the tyros that would probably compete, the course need not be nearly the length mentioned by the authorities Perhaps too some older native not yet cramped with age, would show the young Idea how to roll. The ulu malkas could no ddhbt be secured from private collections where they are now- being treasurer as curios along with stone pol pounders and genuine calabashes. The discs were made from hard rock, black In color nnd close grained. They took a high polish and are beautifully smooth and symmetrical although the polishing and reduction must' have been largely done by hand, a sea washed stone posslblv actlnir as the basis Stones similar to the malka. without the extreme convexity and yet more hlKhly polished, were the old time mirrors of the Hawailans.

The nnvnl ship Solace, Captain Iler mtt Winston-, arrived thla Morning from GMttMh ami Manila en route to San Francisco. The entrance of the vaMel r i I to the harbor waa attended by quite senaatlonal performance in which e nut hr mark on the Pacific Mall dock In a way that will necessitate con siderable repair being made at that part of the Water Front. The Solace had more pillkla trying to itock in Naval slip No. 1, than she has wobably experienced during all of her voyage since she was last in this port, and all of the trouble today was due entirety to the refusal of her command eMQHPtaln Wlnslow. to have a tug as sift him in docking his vessel in the hlkvy wind which has been blowing all rnqrfcing. Owing to the acquaintance of Captain Wlnslow with this harbor the Solace dcs not take a pilot. This morning about 10:30 o'clock, the Solace entered the channel. She was met by the tug Fearless before she got past the light house. Captain Brokow of the tug ask ed' If the services of his vessel were not required to hold the larger vessel a gainst the wind when she was being floaksl. Captain Wlnslow declined to hire the tug however so Brokow went j . , T '1 . . , . ., .... .1......,., .,1,1 ' away. When thv Solace turned the mitoka side of the lighthouse, sne pre sented her port side to the wind which hai a full sweep. The wind caught noil, of the Vessel and metaphorically her un and threw her against the four piled dolphin which is Walkikl from the Naval wharves and some dis tance out in the harbor from the shoh. Plump against this dolphin went the (Holace. Tne ooipnin was serving as iLmoorlng place for the lines of the tug Ttover. and the Pioneer, Hackfeld and Company's new steel scow. The force of the wind was such as to put such a strain on the dolphin that one of the piles broke and the apparatus looked, tar a while as if it would col lupM. W ns low was on the bridge and ne ordered the vessel to go ahead. The boat started up but she could make no headway with the wind full against her nort side nnd the result was that she bore down onto the Walkikl part of the Paclllc Mall dock. "Back your boat. Captain," was yen 6,cl from the crowd of people on the docks. "Back her for God a sake or vnii ni smnuh fnrt wlinrf ou will smash the wharf. The boat went ahead and same time was carried wind until she shov into the Pacific Mail wharf, at almost the identical spot that the ship Ben- jamin F. Packard struck some months ago.

A messenger was hurriedly dispatch ed for Captain Brokow. The latter res ponded with the Fearless and got a line onto the Solace's bow and pulled her nose up Into .the wind. The Solace was then ab e to drop hack stern nrst into the Naval slip, without further trouble. No damage was done to the Solace so far as Is nowMnown. LONDON'S TELEPHONES.

Parker, It will be remembered, WW oppaaed to the Home Rulers In the last election, running on the Republican ticket against Wilcox. But now that even the Home Rulers do not think that Wilcox can be Governor, Parker Is re garded as a good man to endorse. Noth ing succeeds like success and having become convinced that Parker has a good clianci', some of the Home Rule leader want to endorse him before it is too late. About a doaen persons gathered last night and waited about an hour for a quorum spending the time In Informal discussions. Among the matters talked of was the action of the special com mute in deciding not to send a repre sentative to Washington, to help Carter ln telling the President what should be done. This action will come before the Central committee for approval. Another subject to come up Is the dis pensary law.
