DISBARMENT CASE.
Was 1t a Reprimand or a
Caution?
Supreme Court Expresses Its Opir-
ion of the Conduct OF Two
Native Lawyers.

In the Supreme Court yesterday aft
ernoon the disbarment proceedings
against James X. Kaulia and ]. NJ.
Kaneakua came to an end after
two days hearing. Inc two defend
ants were charged with unprofessional !
conduct in attempting to- eXtort $4,000
from Chester \. Doyle on claim for /
damages for the value of two kou trees |
cut down under his directions. After /
hearing a number of witnesses and
the arguments OF counsel, the three
judges made remarks on the case
which embodied the opinions they had
formed They concurred in the main
point that the letters introduced in
evidence made out a prima facie case
for the prosecution. but the Court was
! in doubt as to whether there was real
| y any intent TO eXtort money or
whether the letters were not written
as preliminary to an attempt at COM
promise.
Justices Frear and Whiting seemed
to be of the opinion that the action OF
the attorneys merited n reprimand
from the bench, but none was admin
istered. Judge Stanley, who sat in
place of the Chief Justice, was of the
Iopinion that the letters showed more
Ignorance of the law than any attempt
TO extort, and was inclined to pass over
their offense with caution to be more
lcareful in the future
| The judges then left the bench. the
attorneys telephoned for hacks and
the two lawyers who had caused all
the trouble slowly wendell their way
homeward. bordering over the situa-
ton and wondering whether they had
been reprimanded or simply cautioned.
At the close of the proceedings one
of the attorneys asked the Court what
disposition was to be made of the Kou
log filed in evidence, but the answer
was that the Court had nothing to- dc
duced in court went to show that the
section of the log filed in court was
worth about $50. Instead of being q
solid and valuable piece OF wood, II
was pithy and worm-eaten. The sec
ton introduced in court was about one.
quarter of the whole. for which Mr.
Doyle was asked to pay 5000.
There will be no written decision In
. the case and the matter may be con
sidered as ended.
