What the Oregonian Says of theSmuggling Case Witten-

berg's Statement.

Portland Oregonian, Dec. 17. J

The smuggling of a large amount ofopium into Honolulu, presumably inpackages shipped from this city on thesteamer Mount Lebanon by the Port-land Cracker Company, has attractedmore than usual attention. A thoroughinvestigation has been made, not onlyby the Customs officials of this district,but also by Mr. H. Wittenberg, man-ager of the Portland Cracker Company.One conclusion has certainly beenreached, and this is that a considerablsquantity of opium was smuggled intoeight cases of crackers, and that aman named James R. Parks has con-

siderable knowledge of the transaction.Another fact demonstrated is that notonly has the Portland Cracker Com-

pany not been implicated in the busi-

ness, but no one in any way connectedwith that company has the slightestknowledge of the surreptitious ship-

ment of opium.In the usual routine of business the

company shipped 166 cases of goodslast November,' for which the regularshipper's manifest and consular certi-

ficate were passed at the CustomHouse. It now transpires that afterthese goods had been regularly ship-

ped, eight additional cases were ship-ped, being added to the regular con-

signment. They were naturally re-

ceived by the steamship company without comment or suspicion, as it fre-

quently happens that additions aremade to shipments.

Mr. H. Wittenberg, manager of thePortland Cracker Company, tells thefollowing interesting story of his ef-

forts to sift the matter to the bottom:"A letter received from Honolulu,

from our agents there, gave the firstpoint to begin on. They informed usthat the bill of lading they receivedcalled for eight cases more goods thnnour invoice called for, which they hadreceived.

"On getting this information we immediately compared the bill of ladiagdelivered to us by the steamship company with the shipping receipt that wehad sent down with the goods. Thisalso showed a difference of eight cases.The question then arose, Where didthose eight cases come from? Towhom had we sold any goods whowould be apt to ship them foreign, asgoods of this kind are generally pack-ed in tin.

"Upon investigation, we found thatwe had sold to Mr. Liebe, of the Ore-gon German Bakery, on the 22d ofOctober, eight cases of crackers inhinged tins, for, as he claimed, .iomeshipment to go north. This was aboutthe time the Mount Lebanon was ex-pected.

"We thought nothing of selling Mr.Liebe the cases of crackers, but, onfinding this difference of eight cases,I went to the Oregon German Bakery,and asked the young man in chargeif he could tell me who bought thosecrackers. He said he did not knowthe party's name, but that he coulddescribe the gentleman to me, and saidI could find out who he was at theNew Grand Central Hotel.

"I immediately went to the hotel,and asked Mr. Haas if he knew anygentleman there who had bought crack-ers recently. He answered: 'Yes,' thatthere was a party named Parks Jas.R. Parks who had bought ioms

tonight.Directly the intelligence of ihe

death of the Minister was received bythe Government the flags on the Judi-ciary Building and Military Headquar-ters were lowered to half-mas- t. Mostof the business houses, and the ship-ping followed suit as soon as the deathwas known.

In September, 1S93, Mr. Willis wjsappointed by President Cleveland Min-ister Plenipotentiary and Envoy Ex-traordinary to Hawaii, succeedingJames H. Blount, who acted temporar-ily after the recall of the late JohnL. Stevens.

In attempting to carry out the in-

structions of Mr. Cleveland in relationto the matter of the revolution, Min-ister Willis did that which broughtupon him some severe criticism by theRepublican and Democratic press cfthe United States.

During his residence in Honolulu inan official capacity, Minister Willis per-formed the duties of his office in aquiet, dignified manner; he made sodisplay at private or public functions,and was looked upon as an unassum-ing, genial Southern gentleman, act-ing always in matters of a diplomaticnature in a severely conservative way.

Albert S. Willis was born in ShelbyCounty, Kentucky, January 22, 1S43,and for many years prior to his com-ing to Honolulu as United States Min-ister he resided in Louisville, Ky.

His early education was received inthe common schools of Kentucky. Hegraduated in the Louisville Male HighSchool in I860. For four years hetaught school, and in the intervals ofhis employment studied law, graduat-ing from the Louisville Law School inI860. He was elected attorney of Jeff-erson County, of which Louisville isthe county seat, in 1S70. In 1S72 hecanvassed his State in the interest ofthe Democracy, and served as a Presidential Elector on the Democraticticket. In 1874 he was re-elect- ed attorney of Jefferson County, and servedin that capacity until sent to the Forty-fif- th Congress. He was returned inthe Forty-sixt- h, Forty-sevent- h, Forty-eight- h

and Forty-nint- h Congresses asa Democrat, and during Speaker Carlisle's regime filled the important postof Chairman of the Committee on Rivers and Harbors.

Mr. Willis enjoyed the distinction ofbeing one of the first, if not the first,Representative in Congress- - from aState east of the Mississippi to comeout strongly against Chinese immigra-tion.

His speech, in which he recited thetroubles with the red man and theblack man and pleaded with Congressnot to cause another great radical ques-tion to arise by the further admissionof the yellow man to this country, madehim many friends on the Pacific Coast.

Early in this year he left Honoluluon his annual vacation, but after hisarrival in San Francisco he was stricken with pneumonia, and it was someweeks before he could continue hisjourney to Washington.

At his old home in Louisville, Ky.,he improved, but did not entirely regain his health, and on his return toHonolulu at the expiration of his vacation, his friends here noticed that hishealth was not as good as it shouldbe. While leaving St. Andrew's Cathedral with Mrs. Willis after the Stanley wedding, their horse bolted, andboth were thrown out. Mr. Willis suffered from the shock, and did not leavehis home after the accident.

He suffered from a complication ofdiseases, and within a few days of hisdeath he suffered a recurrence of pneumonia. His family consists of a widowand one son.

WASHINGTON, D. C, Dec. 23. Theattention of Chairman Dingley of theWays and Means Committee havingbeen called to a dispatch from Wash-ington stating that the "Eastern mem-

lieve. While the matter has been onlyslightly discussed, yet I have not ob-

served any material difference of opin-ion. On the contrary, all the Repub-lican members of the committee are infavor of going as far as the McKinleytariff did on that subject, and further,if practicable."

United States Minister Albert S. Wil-

lis died at the Peacock residence atWaikiki at 8:30 a. m. Wednesday, afteran illness covering several months. Theeffect upon his health, resulting fromthe attack of pneumonia from whichhe suffered while on his vacation to

U. S. MINISTER A. S. WILLIS.

the Coast, was such that he had notthe strength to combat the fever andother ailments with which he was at-

tacked after his return. His conditionsince his confinement at his residencehas been at times such that gave hisfamily the fondest hopes of his ulti-mate recovery, and again it was pic-cario- us

to a degree that filled his phy-sicians with grave alarm. A few daysago his condition was much improved,and his famil' renewed their hopes,but the change for the better was buttemporary. He has been surrounded atall times since his illness began by thebest medical talent in the city, andevery care was given the distinguishedMinister, but in spite of a vigorousconstitution, which has assisted him inbattling with the disease, he succumbedafter long and severe suffering.

Some time after midnight MinisterWillis condition began growing worse,and it was seen that the end was notfar off. He lost consciousness, andhis breathing was difficult, and in thiscondition he remained until dissolu-tion took place.

At the request of Mrs. Willis thefuneral services will take place at theCentral Union Church at 3 p. m. onFriday. Rev. D. P. Birnie, pastor ofthat church, and Rev. J. M. Monroe,pastor of the Christian Church, ofwhich the deceased was a member, con-ducting the .services. The details cfthe funeral have been left to UnitedStates Consul General and Charged' Affaires Ellis Mills.

It was learned last evening that Mr.Mills had requested the Governmentto take the funeral in hand and iheGovernment had accepted. The fu-

neral procession will be the most im-posing since that of Kalakaua.

The remains will be deposited tem-porarily in a vault in Nuuanu Ceme-tery until Wednesday, when the caktwill be placed on board the steam-ship Australia for transportation tothe United States. The arrange-ments for the funeral have not yetbeen completed, but it is believed theywill be today. It is not known yetwhether an escort will be sent with theremains, but it seems to be the opin-ion of a number of citizens that arepresentative of the Foreign Officeshould be detailed as an escort to ac-company the remains to Louisville andturn them over to the officials there.

Until the funeral takes place a le-t"- il

of gentlemen, selected by the Min-ister of Foreign Affairs, will remain atthe Willis residence. Last night A. St.M ;m ten Mackintosh and J. Oliver Car-ter were assigned to this duty, and it

"Wheeler, the barber, said: 'If yougo up to 49 First street, to a cigarfactory, and inquire for a man. namedKrueger, he will be able to tell youconsiderable about this man Parks.'

"I went up to the place mentioned.I opened the door, stepped in and sawfive or six parties inside. I asked ifMr. Krueger was there. One of theparties said: 'Yes, what do you want?'I told him I wanted to speak to himin private, and stepped back into analcove, and he followed me. I askedhim if he knew a man named Parks.He said: 'Yes.' I asked him if he washere now. He said he did not know.At this moment some one in the otherpart of the room spoke up, and said:'That is enough; we do not know any-thing else. Don't tell him any more.'

"I will state further that I wentdown to the Grand Central Hotel andhad another interview with Mr. Hob-so- n,

the day clerk. Hobson told methat he went with Parks to buy thecrackers, Parks saying he was goingto ship them to Honolulu.

"I also desire to state in this con-nection that I find from informationgiven by our Seattle house, that thi3man Parks was at one time connectedwith Morris & Co., in Honolulu. Heat one time went to our Seattle factoryand ordered about 20 10-pou- nd tins,four tins to the case, of soda crack-ers. He said the goods were not tobe shipped foreign and that he did notwant the tins soldered. The goodwere made and packed for him, andhe sent a drayman up and got them.Our manager in Seattle claims thatabout one month later, after we haddiscontinued shipping from Seattle,and were shipping from Portland toHonolulu, he found, on passing throughYesler's dock in Seattle, four cases ofour crackers marked for A. L. Morris,or the Washington Feed Company,Honolulu. "He did not think anythingabout it at the time, until the matterof this seizure .came up.

"In this connection, would state thatit was Parks who ordered those goods

the same man who bought the goodsof the Oregon German Bakery.

"I wish to explain our connection inregard to the shipment of these goods:On the 5th of November we clearedthrough the Custom House 1C6 boxesof crackers. We obtained a consul'scertificate for the same number. Wedelivered these two certificates to theOregon Asiatic Steamship Company,sending our goods down to the steam-ship dock with our own receipt, onwhich our own name is printed, andfor this number of cases. We nowhave this receipt in our possession,signed by Davidge & Co., per Dunn,who is their receiving clerk on Ains-wort- h

dock."On receiving the news from Hono-

lulu that the Portland Cracker Com-pany's goods were seized, and that afalse entry had been made, we tookour bill of lading and compared itwith our shipping receipt, when wefound that we had received a bill oflading for eight boxes more than curshipping receipt called for. This billof lading contained in the body 174boxes, and on the margin thereto itwas marked 184 boxes, but I believethat this was merely a clerical errormade by the man who made out thebill of lading, and was unintentionalon his part. On finding this conditionof affairs, I immediately went down tothe office of the steamship companyand asked them to produce the ship4- -

! ping receipt that we had sent to them.

Are being used on over THIRTY PLANTATIONS. They are madeby H. Disston & Sons of Philadelphia, and are acknowledged bythem to be the best knives they ever turned out. They are madeof Aluminum Steel, with Apple-woo- d handles, secured with fourrivets, and hang easier in the hand, when in use, than any ether CaneKnives. The fact that the cane cutters prefer these knives to all others,because they do not tire their hands, and they can do much more workin a day, is sufficient guarantee of their superiority.

We have just received over a hundred dozen from the Factory,and can supply Plantations now or at any time during the comingseason. Plantations that have not yet tried them, should send (ora sample lot, and give them a trial. We have them with the hookand without.

LONDON, Dec. 24. The Times 'hismorning has an editorial in which itcounsels the Spaniards to maintain thecalm demeanor which they have thusfar displayed toward the United States:Says the Times: They can afford toignore the insolent menaces of theSenate Committee, even if they areadopted by both houses, because theyare empty menaces. The latest indi-cations are that the American peoplesupport President Cleveland's attitude.But Spain must endeavor to procurepeace in one way or another, otherwisethe time will come when the Cameronresolution will be adopted in substancebv the President.
