HONOLULU, Dec. 14—Fred S. Adams, who is mow being detained at the police station pending an investigation of cer- ! tain check and draft operations on his part while In Honolulu, comes of promi- nent people in San Francisco. Adams came here about four weeks ago from Apla, where he had been in- vestigating a pipe line system for a num- ber of rancisco people. He was | taken 1n charge by Detective Lake on complaint of George Andrews, manager of the Union Grill. Adams gave Andrews two checks—one for $15 and another for | $20—on Bishop & Co.’s bank In payment | for meals, recelving change in additjon. He had no account with the bank at the time. Adams admits that he gave An- drews the checks, but claims he had been drinking considerably beforehand. It was reported that Adams had given Fred Kiley a draft for $500, receiving part of the money in advance. This he denies emphatically, Accompanied by Kiley he made out a draft on Adams & Co. of San Francisco, and took it to Bishop & Co. for collection, He admits owing Kiley about §$140. Mast of this was for trade with a few cash advances. Adams clalms to have an interest of $10,000, the remainder of a fortune of $160,000 left him by his father, in the cor- poration known as Adams & Co. JHe says that he cannot draw on the ount, however, without permission of his rela- tives and members of the organization.

Considerable difficulty in securing competent men is being met with and during to-day's ex- amination of veniremen clashes between () opposing counsel were frequent. When court adjourned to-night each side had exhausted three of its seven peremptory challenges. It developed to-day that Commissioner of Corporations James R. Garfield and his chiet assistant, Dr. E. A. Durand, have practically become witnesses for the de- fense, inasmuch as Garfleld has been served with subpena duces tecum, issued at the instance of the defense, to produce every book, paper, record or report he has now, or did have, and be ready to testify concerning it. By this it is declared the defense will endeavor to show that Gar- fleld has sworn statements in his posses- sion which were made by the packers dur- ing €ommissioner Garfield's investigation of the business methods of the ‘beef trust” and that in view of this fact the packers have gained immunity from crim- inal prosecution.

DENVER, Colo., Dec. 14.—What Robert McWilllams supposed was an aggravated case of nasal catarrh proved to have been caused by a tooth growing in his nose. The discovery was made yesterday by Dr. N. A Johnson, who removed the tooth, which had taken the wrong track and grown up through the gum instead of down. McWilliams Ohio several ye: to Colorado from ago in hope of being cured of a bad case of catarrh. He re- ceived no rellef. Within the last few wetks a growth in the nasal passage commenced to annoy him and yesterday the pain was so great that it nearly drove him crazy. He sought Dr. Johnson, who found a hard white growth protrud- ing in the air passage. Cocaine was used, after which the doctor applied his forceps and removed a tooth nearly an inch in length. - —_——— Open evenings until Christmas. The public cordially invited.
