After the baptism She was taken TO

A PROMISING CAREER

TO PRINCESS KAIULANI
(Robert Louis Stevenson.)
Forth from her land to mine she goes,
The Island maid, the Island rose,
Light of heart and bright of face
The daughter of a double race.
Her Islands here in Southern sun,
Shall mourn their kaiulani gone,

Look yainly for my little maid.
But our Scots islands far away
Shall glitter with unwonted day,
And cast for once their tempests by
To smile in Kaiulani's eye.

A STATEMENT by A PRISONER
UNDER ARREST FOR RECEIVING
STOLEN GOODS, MADE TO THE
PERSON HAVING HIM IN GUS
TODY,- HELD INADMISSIBLE AS
HAVING BEEN MADE UNDER
THE INFLUENCE OF HOPE OR
FEAR
point decided appears from the opinion
OF the court.
The Court says:
The defendant was indicted for lar
ceny and receiving stolen goods OF one
Horton. 1t was proved that Horizons
store had been robbed and burned
There was no evidence Identifying the
goods alleged to have been stolen, and
the prosecution failed on the first count.
There was no evidence relied on by the
State. except the declarations of the
defendant to sustain the second count
The competency of these declarations is
the only question presented.
The defendant was arrested by j. H.
Conrad, and while in his custody Con-
rad said to him that he "had worked
up the case, and he had as we'll tell
NIL about it." The defendant denied any
knowledge OF the alleged stolen articles.
but after while said that another per-
son brought the goods to his house
The house referred to was his mothers
house. An officer, with authority to ar
rest, discharges his duty by simply
making the arrest, and 1t Is no part of
ms duties to provoke 4 prisoner to
make any statement. The genius of our
free institutions provides that admis-
sions OF a. party should not be used
against him, unless made voluntarily.
The common law looks with jealousy
Oh such confessions; for, if made I'M
der the Influence of hope or fear. they
furnish no test of the truth of the mat
ter. They may be true, and thcy may
be inspired by either hope or fear tina,
such statements will be better for him
In the near future. 'The mind. under
the pressure OF calamity. Is prone to
acknowledge, indscriminately, n
falsehood or n truth. as different agi-
tations may prevail; and therefore
confession obtained by the slightest
emotion of hope or fear ought to he
rejected"
The language that chad worked up
the case. and he had as we'll tell all
about It," was we'll calculated to aei-
tate the mind of the defendant an ic.
norant man, then prisoner, and cause
him to conclude that n prompt admis-
sion, true or false. would mitigate his
punishment. This case closely resem-
bles State v. Whitfield, where the Ian
guage Of the prosecutor was: II believe
you nre guilty. If YOU are. you had bet
ter say so; II You are not you had bet
ter say that" Held. that the confession
was made under the influence Of hope

a CORPORATION CANNOT PUR-
CHASE THE STOCK OF ANOTHER
CORPORATION IN ORDER TO
SUPPRESS COMPETITION AND
CONTROL IT'S MANAGEMENT,
UNLESS EXPRESS AUTHORITY Is
GIVEN IT TO DO So
This was consolidation of eight ac-
lions brought by the German Savings
Institution and others against the DE
LIE Fergne ltefrigeraiing Company for
failure to deliver certain stock In the
Refrigerating Company to the plain-
tiffs. From n Judgment for plaintiffs
defendant appealed.
The court says:
The principal question in this case Is
whether, under the laws OF New York
providing for the organization OF man
ufacturing corporations, such corpora
tons are authorized to purchase the
pose of supprcssing competition and OBJ
tanning the management of such cor
poration.
The main defense pressed upon our
consideration is one which does not
seem to have been called to the atten-
ton OF the Circuit Court. and one upon
which the judges OF the Circuit Court
of Appeals were equally divided In
opinion. 1t is that the president OF the
RcfrigeratIng Company had no author
ity TO sign the contract In question, and
that the agreement itself was ultra
wires the corporation. There was no
corporate action taken authorizing any
such conveyance by the corporation,
and such conveyance could not, under
the laws of Illinois, which conform in
this particular to the general law, be
within the power of the stockholders,
even though they all signed it, with
out formal action ut 4 meeting held
for that purpose. 1t Is true the pres
idcnt assumed to sign the contract rs
president. and to bind the company,
but 1t les scarcely necessary to say that
the president of corporation has no
power as such to make Il general con-
veyance of the assets OF the corpora
ton without Mt least the assent of the
Board of Directors. But rs the powers
OF corporations. created by Legislative
acts, are limited to such as the act en-
pressly confcrs. and the enumeration
OF these implies the exclusion of all
others, 1t follows that unless express
permission be given to do so, 1t is not
within the general powers of corpo-
ration to purchase the stock of other
corporations for the purpose of con-
trolling their management.
Our conclusion upon this branch Of
the case is that, as the main, IL not
the sole, object OF the purchase from
the plaintiffs was to acquire their stock
in the Consolidated Company. such pur-
chase was ultra wires the Refrigerating
Company. Reversed.
