The Burglars Went from office to Office
and Building to Building Undecided
and Unheard.
Tuesday evening there was peculiar
case OF breaking and entering at 10 Mon
ument Square. The block is owned in
part by Hon. James sP. Baxter, and in
part by T. F. Donahue, common stair
way being used by the tenants of both.
At about II. 80, as near as can be estimat-
ed, although the exact hour is unknown,
men at least must have been engaged
in the break, went to the cabinet shop
Of Mr.. Bruins, in the third story of the
Baxter side of the building, and sawed
out section of the plastering so that a
small opening was made into the office
below, occupied by Mark j. Flaherty,
an agent for lock and safe company.
There are three rooms in the suite, and
the inner room, very small one, is
largely occupied by nice safe. Mi.
Flaherty was in Boston, a fact with
which In the opinion of Marshal Trick
ey, the burglars were acquainted. This
safe they drilled and blew open, the
sound not greatly arousing anybody as
far as known.
Then having secured whatever there
was in the safe the burglars found the
door leading from Mr.. Flaherity's inner
office to the chamber over the store Of
Mr.. Donahue. This room afforded a
good opportunity for plumber, but as
far as could be seen nothing was taken.
They went down stairs to the store be.
low, but in the opinin of Mr.. Donahue
did not take anything. They forced the
lock on the back door of the store, but
were still far from out of trouble. Their
escape into Center street was cut off by
the high gate.
They then forced the door Of the store
house of the Atkinson company, and
passed through the building, but MIR.
Carleton was unable to see that anything
was disturbed. They forced another
door, and found themselves out in mar
row passage way, their escape into Free
street cut off by low shed, but that
they climbed, and dropped off into SEQ
ondspassageway leading to Free street.
The mystery is how they managed to
escape not only undeteoted, but unheard.
1t is not thought to have been the work
of professionals for whoever did
the job knew all about the premises. Ap'
parently they were after money, and
nothing else.

Mr.. Robertson read extracts from the
law on this matter in support OF his
objection Under the ruling, he
said, ''of the secretary of war there
can be no such offence as that charged
in the bill of specifications
Judge Advocate Kinney read the
ruling and gave his Interpretation of
the law governing military trials in
Hawaii. In his belief the law did not
provide for any statement of offences.
I'VE fall back on the simple PROPOSE
tion that there are certain things
which we know to be in violation OF
his duty as an officer. The first ques-
tion for you to decide is whether there
is a specific creation of the offence
mentioned. He contended that there
was not The law merely says that
we shall have cognizance of certain
Offences
Attorney Robertson submitted that
if the law did not create the offence
then there were no offences which
could be tried by any court martial
He defined clearly the law as provided
in the statutes and contended that
there was no such offence as the one
in this law If the offences
are not to be found in the authority
he submitted that there were none to
be tried.

COURT RETIRES.

Judge Advocate Kinney said he
would not argue the point and Lieut.
Col. Fisher announced to the court
and audience that he would follow the
precedent established by the court
martials held here in the past, and
when the court wished to deliberate
instead of clearing the room he and
the other member of the court would
retire. AS these were questions that
would require deliberation the court
would now retire.
On returning the Lieutenant Colo
mel announced that the court had de-
cided to abide by Windthrop in the
conduct of the trial which provides
that amendment cannot be made by
the Judge Advocate to any complaint
without due authority from the con-
vening commander
The court had decided that the
charge was incomplete and they would
be referred back to the Minister of the
Interior who is in this instance the
convening officer
Judge Advocate Kinney then asked
that recess of ten minutes be grant
ed him in order that he might com
municate with the minister and learn
his wishes in the matter. This ten min
utes' recess extended over three
quarters of an hour at the end of
which authority was brought for
amending the charges to read con
duct unbecoming an officer and a gen
tIeman.'
Captain Good plead not guilty to
each charge read by Judge Advocate.
Testimony was then taken.
THE FIRST WITNESS.
A. P. Stanope was the first witness
called and was sworn by Judge Ad-
vocate.
"Am Sergeant of Company e. First
duty sergeant, remember when an
was made reducing sal
aries of men in the regiment. Capt.
Good made the announcement to
men drawn up in line in the basement.
When it was over he made a speech
saying that he would do all he could
for the men in the way of clothing al
lowance. Captain Good made remarks

think, in the office. He had about
twenty men picked out to shoot in the
match for the rife. Said he did not
think it advisable to put in a team as
the government would give them no
thanks for it. Captain Good made
quite a speech at the time, but / can
not remember just what he said. On
one occasion he said he had spent a
great deal of time and money in get
ting the company up to the present
standard, but he could not afford to
spend any more money on it now. He
told me once that he would not ad-
wise the men 10 practice Tor the pres

The sole object of interest to the
military and to a good many who are
not members of the guards was the
court martial of Captain John Good, Jr.,
of Company E, N. G. H., last night.
But the proceedings were slow, and at
times the members of the court looked
as though they would welcome an ad-
journment with open arms.
The evidence was not in the least SEN
sational, and many persons left the hall
when they learned that the prisoner
had not made an effort to organize a
company for the purpose of overturn-
ing the Government, and that the
charges were based mainly upon the
fact that he preferred soldier to a
sailor as the head of he'army, and with
this preference in his mind denounced
the riot drill in terms more forcible
than elegant.
The long delay in getting permission
from Minister of Foreign Affairs Coop
er to amend the charges wore on the
court and the audience, and wearing
caused them to lose the lustre of their
eyes and nourish a desire for strength
to kill 1.-The mosquitoes which infested
the room.
Judge Advocate Kinney felt that he
was not responsible for the errors of
the man who compiled the laws con-
tanned in little pamphlet which was
to govern their actions, and as a mis-
take was made he would not argue.
CAPTAIN GOOD ARRIVES.
At 1850 Captain Good, we'll groomed
and with every indication of being we'll
fed, entered the great hall, accompani-
ed by Captain Ziegler. After saluting
the officers of the court with the state
Illness of an officer of the old line, he
took a seat at the side of his attorney
Hon. A. G. M. Robertson. After the
usual questions as to any objections
the prisoner might have to the per-
sonnel of the court, Judge Advocate
Kinney swore in the interpreter, B. L.
Marx and afterwards Lieut. Col. Fish
er swore in the members of the court.
The charges were then read, the pris-
oner remaining in a standing position.
