Attorneys for Defendant
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1889-09-24
Admitted to the Bar.

William Horace Wright, assistant
secretary to the Minister of Foreign
Affairs, was last week admitted as a
member of the bar, to practice in all the
Courts of the Kingdom. Mr.. Wright's
petition for admission recites that he is
a native of England and a citizen of the
United States. He was born on Sth
July, 1874, and on 9Th May, 1868, admit
ted as solicitor of the High Court OF
Chancery, England, and as attorney OF
the Courts of Queens Bench, Common
Pleas and Exchequer. On August 2,
$780,. he was made a citizen of the
United States, and on December II
1882, admitted to practice as an attorney
and counsellor in the Supreme Court and
all Courts of California. He arrived on
the Hawaiian Islands in July, 1885, and
on August 4, 1887, took an oath to sup
port the Hawaiian Constitution.

of the sugar belonging to resident
owners does not affect the case
under our law or either of the laws
above quoted the property is liable
to taxation if it is within the King
dom on the 1st day of July, regard
less of the residence of the owners.
This sugar started for its destina-
ton (San Francisco) on the 30th
day of June, and the vessel upon
which it was shipped was COM
PEELED by unfavorable winds to
anchor again, and to remain at
anchor until the morning of the
first day of July. The sugar was
actually in transit all that part of
July 1st, during which it was with
in Hawaiian limits, as much so as
if the vessel in which it was had
not dropped anchor, but had been
becalmed within a maritime league
from the shore until July 1st.
l feel that these cases lay down
convenient rule, and one entirely
within the statute. The case of
Breacer d Co. Us. Iar Collector, even
if it had been decided by the full
Court, would not have controlled
the case at bar, the circumstances
being different, in that the vessel
on which the sugar had been placed
had not left her moorings before
the first day of July.
AT the same time the construc-
ton of the law adopted by the
Court is, 1 think, comfortable to
the statute the question between
the two views is one rather of policy
than of exact law. Feeling, there
fore, that the Court was at liberty
to adopt the rule laid down in its
opinion, l very reluctantly concur
therein.

Concauring Opinion of Dole, j.
The question before the Court is
whether the property in question
had a situs within the Kingdom for
taxable purposes. 1t may fairly be
implied as stated by the opinion of
the Court that it belonged to the
plaintiffs.
/ should have cheerfully followed
the ajority of the Court had they
seen their way to have decided the
case in favor of the plaintiffs, under
the authority of Hoyt Us. The Com
naissionerS Of Idres, (23 N. Y. 240),
and Carrier Us. Gordon, (21 Ohio
6O8). The conclusion of Hoyt as.
The Commissioners of Tares, is that
i" chattels which are in transit
through the state, ought
not to be considered as having a
situs here, so as to be subject to
taxation" Carrier Us. Gordon is
still stronger and more applicable to
the case at bar. 1t says, ait is true
that in order to constitute it spro-
perty in the state,' within the
meaning of the law, it must have
situs in the state. If it is at the
time the tax attaches IN tra1lSitu
either through the state or from
point in the state to point outside
the state, it is not to be regarded as
property in the state, within the
meaning of the statute, but as pro-
perty belonging to the place of its
destination" And again, /" the
safer and better rule is the one in
Dictated, to consider property actu-
ally in transit as belonging to the
place of its destination, and pro-
perty not in transit as property in
the place of its situs, without re-
gard to the intention of the owner
or his residence in or out of the
state"
The laws in New York and Ohio
are identical with ours, so far as
this point is concerned. " All lands
and all personal estate within this
state shall be liable to
taxation" Il R. S. N. Y, 3S7,
Sec. ~ "All property, whether
real or personal, in this state
shall be subject to taxation" al
R. S., Ohio, Sec. 2731.) "All per-
sonal property within this King
dom, not subject to specific taxes,
shall be subject to an annual tax of
one per cent" (Haw. Laws of
1886, Chap. XXXII.)
1t will be seen that the opinion
in the case of Carrier as. Gordon,
above quoted, exactly fits the case
before the Court. The circumstance
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1889-09-24

of July. Why should it not be
taxed?
1t is claimed that as being in
transit it should be exempt. We
are referred to the case of Carrier
as. Gordon 81 Ohio Cos, wherein
timber lying within the state had
been purchased by a nonresident
and was awaiting the opening of
navigation to be removed out of the
state. The Court say: If the pro-
perty is, at the time the tax at
taches, in trGnsitu either through
the state or from a point in the
state to point outside the state it
is not to be regarded as property in
the state within the meaning of the
statute, but as property belonging
to the place of its destination but
the Court held that the timber not
having started on its journey could
not be exempted on the ground of
mere intention of the purchaser to
move it, an intention which was
subject to change. But if it is cor
rect doctrine that property in tran
sit from state is to be regarded as
property belonging to the place of
its destination, then converso, the
cargoes of ships which have sailed
before the first of July and arriving
here after that date will be taxable
here. We should have for instance,
the cargo of ship which sailed
from England in June, taxable on
its arrival in Honolulu in October
or November, proposition not well
tenable under our statute.
The Ohio case differs essentially
from the one at bar in this that the
sugar was not the property of non
resident owners purchased here for
expectation. When such a case
arises this precedent might be con-
sidered. In Breaoer e. Co. Us. Idr Col
lector, heard by Chief Justice Judd,
the jury being waived, the plain
tiffs claimed to be refunded taxes
on sugar shipped by them on the
steamer Alameda, on the 28th of
June and up to and previous to the
first of July, the steamer sailing at
noon Of the first. The Court said:
The sugar was within this King
dom although laden in the hold of
an American steamship. The sugar
though its bills of lading were
mailed to the consignees in for
eign port, was, for the purposes of
taxation still in possession and con-
troll of the shipper.
We prefer to take the simple rule
which the easiest Interpretation of
the statute gives. We have moth
ing to do with the honest intention
of the shipper to get his property
out of the way of taxation. If he
is able to do so by however narrow
margin of time he has the benefit
of his diligence. If his intention
is defeated by however narrow an
entry upon the time belonging to
the first of July, he may be assessa-
BILE. We are unable to see wherein
the custom house clearance or re-
entry affect the question of liability
for domestic taxes, as being pro-
perty within the Kingdom, for they
do not change ownership, or for
taxation purposes, possession.

AWFUL WORK OF A MAYNARD SON.
He Shoots His Father, Fires the House, and
Then Kills Himself.

Then Kills Himself.
SPRINGFIELD, MASS, April 1S.-West
Farms, farming hamlet lying midway be-
tween Westfeld and Montgomery, five
miles from Westfeld Center, was the scene
of a horrible double tragedy this morning.
Joseph King, wealthy, well-known
citizen, 76 years of age, was shot and killed
by Edgar King, his eldest son, and the
house fred and burned. Sometime after,
shots heards near by directed the assembled
neighbors to a spot 20 rods away. where the
murderer was found lying in a pool of
blood, having shot himself The cause of
the crime is traceable to an unbalanced
mind, caused by dissolute habits.
The murderer and suicide had planned
for the deeds he committed. A few days ago
he gave to Charles Clark a sealed manu-
script, which he requested him to keep and
not open until some time in the future, say
ing he would soon go away and that the let
ter would reveal why he went and where he
would be. The papers were read to-day,
and reveal the determination of Edgar to
kill his father and also his aunt. The final
act was to be his own death. ALI this, with
one exception, has been done.
Edgar was once in partnership in the bus
mess of making whips, was worth consider
able property, and was married. Six years
ago his wife procured divorce on the
ground of drunkenness. When his property
was gone he led bad life, and got what
money he could from his father, until the
latter refused to give any more.
The story of the morning is brief one.
Mr.. King was dying asleep in bed, and his
wife, who had not undressed, was on a sofa
in the same room. 1t was about O'Clock
that she was awakened by revolver shots.
The son had stolen in through the sitting
room, and, without word, aimed closely
and fred three shots into the body of his
father. One shot took effect ever the right
eye, one in the neck and one in the breast.
Death was instantaneous. The sons only
reply to his mothers pleadings was to send
for Clarke. He then vainly endeavored to
enter the room occupied by his two aunts,
Mrs. Tuttle and Mrs. Moore. Failing in
this, he retired to the woodshed, setting fire
to the house, after which he disappeared,
and was not seen again until his dead body
was found

Because of a Voluntary Plea of Man.
slaughter in Draper's Case.
The trial of William Draper, charged
with the murder of George Whalen at
picnic held at Toms Run, June "a, 1888,
was continued yesterday morning before
Judge Magee. G. P. F. Wilhelm was first
called, and testified to being at the picnic
and saw the wagon containing beer around
which was a crowd. The witness would
not permit the wagon to remain in the
grounds.
S. Martin was at the picnic and saw the
wagon and crowd near the gate, among
whom were the Whalen brothers. He heard
the remarks "be sure of your man" and
''tell him you viii fight him fair and if he
does anything dirty, =" The witness
heard no more until shot was fired and saw
a man run toward the hill.
After the noon recess considerable sur
prise was manifested by R. 81. Johnston,
ESQ.,, counsel for the defendant, stating that
if the prosecution would withdraw the in
dictment for murder in the first degree, he
would put in a plea of voluntary man.
slaughter. The prosecution accepted and
the jury was dismissed.
A large number of witnesses were then
called who were not of the WhaIen party
to show extenuating circumstances in favor
of the action taken by Draper. Louis
Trimble was at the picnic, and saw large
crowd around the wagon. He approached
and saw man knocked down and then
heard pistol shot, He could recognize
none of the parties.
John Woods and Daniel McGinniss heard
of the affair and were at the picnic. Their
testimony, however, was so shaky that it
was characterized as moonlight imagin-
alton" by District Attorney Porter, and the
witnesses were dismissed. Henry Blymeyer.
John Nicholas, William Askell and John
Plumber testified to seeing a man resem-
bling Draper knocked down in a crowd
around beer wagon.
The defendant, William Draper. was
placed on the stand. He was very much at
ease, and told the story of the trouble in a
straightforward manner. He left home in
company with a number of companions for
the picnic. Joseph Mitchell gave him a
revolver to carry for him. He had only
taken little liquor. A large crowd was
around one wagon. "About 10 O'Clock at
night went up to get glass of beer but
was refused" said the witness. "Then 1
said 4 have money to pay for it, Some
one on the wagon called me a =
-, and 1 said don't call me
that again. Then party jumped
from the wagon and dealt me a powerful
blow on the head with his fist. 1 was
knocked down and then took my revolver
and shot, at no one in particular, as 1 felt
dazed. then ran up the hill and was pur-
sued. After making my escape went to
Indian Territory and subsequently surren-
dered to the police officials in Kentucky"
Detective Gilkinson testified tn the con-
fession received from Draper. The above
testimony closed the case. Judge Magee
will sentence Draper tomorrow.
