Duly subscribed and sworn to by John NJ. IA

Mr., HartVoll then filed exceptions to the re-
turn, and argued that it failed to raise an
issue OF law on which the court could decide the
case. The only question now was whether the
bonds would be issued az pgg If sold for certain
silver coins as alleged in the petition. This aver
meut must be admitted or denied by the return.
Air. Preston argued contra, that the averment
about silver dollars was immaterial, and there
fore need not be denied. Mr.. Hartwell in reply
sind that this was the only fact which was Of any
Importance and until it was settled, the case could
not be heard.
The Court ruled that the return was bad for the
reason named, whereupon the counsel for the re-
pondent amended this return, by inserting an
averment that he intended TO accept for the bonds
silver coin in half dollar pieces of equal weight
and fneness with United States silver coins of the
same value and lawful money Of the Goversment
OF the Hawaiian Islands"
Mr.. Hartwell filing demurrer to this amended
return, the argument was ut once taken up on the
main question, viz whether the issuing of the
bonds for such COINS WIS 4 compliance with
the statute thai they be mot issued below par.
Counsel cited z case from New York. holding that
certain state bonds which we're so issued that the
state lost some $4,000 on the interest, were not
issued "at par and that these words meant that
The bonds would be sold for the same value in
which thew were payable. The currency Act and
sail pass current for all this has TO do with
the matter, but If these silver coins worth only
n little over - cents N United States gold, tuere
would not be an issue at par.
Mr. Preston argued for the amended return,
that the statute requirement TO Issue the bonds
only NJ pr meant that they be sold for the cur
