JUDICIAL DECISION.

A decision was filed Wednesday by the
Chief Justice in the case Of G. W, Mac
fsrlsne VS.. the Waikspu Sugar Co, being
s bill in equity praying FOR leave TO de-
feRd in the sui, Of the Hawaiian Com
mercial Sugar Co. VS.. Waikspu Sugar Co.
The Court finds that the rightof stock
holders to sue or defend suit in csses
where the interests Of the corporation
are involved and the corporation refuses
to sue or TO defend, is we'll established,
and the Court accordingly decides that
the orator, G. W. Macfarlane, may de-
fend the suit Hawaiian Commercial
Sugar Co. VS.. Wsikapu Sugar Co., at his
own expense and in his own name. The
learned Judge thinks that separate
petition in this case was unnecessary
and that plaintiff might have appeared
in the original suit and moved that he
be allowed to defend. The petition is,
therefore, treated as 8 motion in that
suit. and the decision is fled IS given in
the principal As well as in the ancillsry
suit.
In the suit G. W. Mscfsrlsne vs.. War
kapu Sugar Co., Claus Sprsckels APP
peared by his attorney. aud moved that
he be allowed, SIS q stakeholder, TO de-
fend the above suit. The Court finds
that his equity is not the same as thst OF
the plaintiffs, and that to allow this mo-
ton would be virtually to permit the
same party TO bring suit and then de-
lend it. The motion is accordingly
denied.
BY agreement OF counsel, no appeals
were fled on either side in the case Of
g. W. Mscfarlsue vs.. the Waikspu
Sugar Co., and decree has been signed
snd fled. The main action, Hawaiian
Commercial VS.. Wsikspu Sugar Co.,

The Biggest Schooner Ever Built
On the Sound.

The schooner ". H. Talbot, the
largest vessel ever Quilt on Puget Sound,
was launched on September >, at Hall
Bros. shipyard at Port Blakely The
schooner was built FOR s company Of
whom Captain Albert Paul, Of this city,
is the managing owner. ". II. Talbot,
another part owner and the one for
whom the vessel was named, is son OF
the deceased Junior member OF the firm
Of Pope & Talbot. Cyrus Walker, OF
Seattle, q brother-in-law Of Mr.. Talbot,
is another part owner, and Captain
Bluhm, who will have command OF the
Talbot, is also part owner. She was
built for the lumber trade and will prob
ably take her first cargo 10 Honolulu.
Captain Bluhm was formerly captain Of
the Dora Bluhm, and later OF the ". S.
Bovine, which vas recently wrecked on
the coast Of Siberia.
Every stick OF lumber in the Talbot is
Of Douglas or yellow fir, from the forests
Of Puget Sound. She is a four-masted
fore and aft schooner. Her keel is l76
feet, her extreme breadth OF beam 10
feet, and her depth OF hold 151s feet.
She is of 80 tons burden, and will carry
100000 feet Of lumber. The model
after which she wss built is very pretty
one, and the Talbot will not only De a
good ssiler, but she viii be one of the
strongest vessels on the sea, as the ms
terials used were OF the very best, the
timbers large and the fsstenings extra
heavy. The Tslbot's msst's will be three
feet higher than the highest ever put on
q vessel at Hail Bros shipysrds. Each
Of the four masts will be 10l feet high.
This IS the third vessel launched at
Hall Bros shipysrd this season, and the
thirty-ninth since the firm was estab-
lished st Port Blskely. Hall Bros.
started at Port Ludlow in 1873, and built
thirty-one vessels there up to 1881, when
they moved to Port Blakely. In all they
have built seventy vessels, q record un-
equsled BY any shipbuilders on the
Coast, not excepting the Union Iron
Works. The record this season will be
i've schooners, with q total tonnage of
8 800 tons.-ISea and Shore.

Judgment of the commissioner order
ing the removal Of the fiume.
It was shown before the commits
sioner that the defendant was &C.
customed to dam the water up in his
kalo patches until it had accumu-
listed to a considerable height. He
would then let il flow off in an in
creased volume to the lands in which
he was interested, which were en-
titled to water. During the time the
patches were thus filing, the parties
whose time for irrigation this was
would be deprived OF water. These
reservoir patches then becom ing
emptied the parties next entitled TO
water in order OF time would get no
flow Of water until it had accumu-
lated sufficiently to run again
through the outlets. The commits
sioner, in his judgment, has provided
against repetition OF this manifest
injustice By placing stones in the
beds OF various outlets OF the reser-
voir patches, above which the water
cannot rise. Counsel for defendant
admits that his clients act in thus
closing up the reservoir patches is
wrong, and he does not question the
decision of the commissioner in
ordering that this practice shall
cease. We therefore affirm this part
of the judgment also.
Costs to be paid by defendant.

A Novel Telephone.

A telephone up the volcano on Hawaii
Is the latest novelty for the jewellers on
the islands. In the old days men rode
on horseback ahead Of the lava flow to
let the settlers know there had been an
eruption, but hereafter it will be neces-
ssry only to turn the crank and call up
"Centrsl."
z. Z. Richards, who built the volcano
telephone line, and who is the superin-
tendent Of the largest telephone COM
pany IN the kingdom, is now st down
town hotel. He came here with laud-
able purpose, as can be proved by
yesterdays marriage notices. The
bride was one Of San Jose's prettiesi
girls, Miss Tillie Schoen. They will

Honolulu has the most wonderful
telephone system in the world" said Mr.
Richards. You can get any number
you want Is soon as you ask for It, and
can hear perfectly very great distance.
There is good system in Hilo too, and
the lines run the whole length OF the
island and 20 10 the houses Of many OF
the largest planters. The people OF
Hawaii use the telephone much more
than do the people in any part OF the
United States that was ever in. II a
man wants 10 know what time il is, in
stead Of getting out Of his seat to look at
the clock be rings up the operator and
finds out. II ship makes port on either
side Of the island all the planters are
notified at once, so that they can 90 to
the dock if they desire. Hawaii could

the whole place to immediate possession.

OF the world and ships of sll nations are
anchored in its broad and smooth waters.
But it is only OF the place as q seaside

much for its coolness, and al any rste s

BEFORE JUDD, Q. J., BrcKERToN AND DOLE,
ia. (M'cUILr, J., ABsgST).

A hume diverting water from certain
springs on 70 land not entitled to water
was put up by defendant. The springs
were in defendants land, and after sup
plying defendants kalo patches therein
the water was accustomed to flow down
into natural water course whence
plaintiff had acquired an easement to use
the water for his kalo patches below. II
was claimed BY defendant that he had
other land below which was entitled
equally with the plaintiff to water from
the overflow of the springs, and that he
only diverted by this flume the water
which he was entitled to use below.
HEIp; The fume should be removed. 1t
was an unwarranted interference with
the plaintiffs method of enjoyment Of
his easement in the water from the
springs, and injurious to him and others.
