In Open Session.

The Commissioner held an open
meeting in the throne room OF the
Palace this morning. The small
audience was composed Of the lead
ing Chinese, headed by Mr.. Goo
Kim Fui, a few strangers, Minister
Damon aud members OF the press.
Mr.. Hatch, on behalf OF the Chinese
addressed the Commissioners and
furnished much direct information,
besides answering numerous ques-
tions propounded by the members
of the Commission.
When Mr.. Hatch finished his ad-
dress, Mr.. Mitchell of Alabama, sub
mitted his grievance for his illegal
arrest in 1896, for the consideration
of the Commissioners. Mr.. Mitchell
has been unable to find any redress
for his ill-treatment either through
his representative or through the
local court. The Commissioners
were apparently surprised to learn
about the conditions under which
we have existed here during the
regime of the alleged best" govern
ment Hawaii ever saw
