MARSHALL MUST APPEAR
HABEAs CORPUS PLEA FAILS IN
COURT.
Prisoner Remanded to the Authorities
and Must Await Trial by Jury-More
Bonds Required.

The Supreme court today decided the
habeas corpus case of w. H. Marshall
late editor of the late Volcano, and re-
manded that gentleman to the custody
of the marshal of the Republic He
must now put up bail again in the
sum of $1,000, pending appeal to the Cir
cult court. 1t is understood that the
money will be forthcoming.
Marshall was convicted in the Dis
trict court of libel and sentenced to i'm
prisonment for six months. He ap-
pealed. Subsequently he got before the
Supreme court under a writ of habeas
corpus and there contended that the
libel law was imperfect, and therefore
imperative, and that it did not clearly
define the degrees of libel for which
punishment was prescribed Mr.. De
Bolt appeared for the prisoner and +.
p. Dole argued contra
The court decides that the sections
complained of are not unconstitutional
because they divide the offense of mail
ing and publishing a libel into two de-
grees without distinguishing between
them except by the amount of the pen
atty, and leave it to the court or jury
authorized to decide on the facts to de-
termine the degree.
1t is added by the court in the decis-
ion that the statute does not contem-
plate two distinct offenSes and leave
the court or jury to decide between
them. 1t carefully defines one offense
and then provides two degrees of PEN
atty The prisoner is remanded to the
custody of the marshal
The May term of the Circuit court
will open Monday morning with the
longest calendar ever presented here.
There are 23S straight cases, besides
the extras, or about 300 in all, divided
as follows: Hawaiian criminal, 10;
foreign jury criminal, 25; Hawaiian civ
il, 49, mixed jury, 81; foreign civil, 80;
jury waived, "a: divorce. Is.
The Canadian Steamship Company,
by it's attorneys, Robertson & Wilder,
today answered the twenty-nine suits
of the Hogan minstrels, denying each
and every allegation in the complaints
contained.

ican Newspaper Sellers Battling for a
Trophy on the Makiki Grounds.

Newsboys of the Star and Bulletin
met this morning in a baseball contest
on the Makiki diamond. 1t was the
FIRST of a series of three games to be
played, with a baseball outfit as the
trophy, to go to the winners of two
games. With an Advertiser carrier for
umpire the two teams lined up at nine
o'clock and fast and furious playing
was the rule from the start
There We're Chinese, Hawaiians and
Portuguese as well as Americans in this
important contest in the great Ameri-
can game and there were BOYS of many
sizes, from the umpire, who, as was
eminently fitting and necessary, was the
biggest boy there, to small barefoot
boys who looked as if a bat might be
too heavy for them, but who neverthe-
less shouldered it and swung it with
what looked like vicious intent The
stars went in first, but they couldn't
find the pitcher of the other side and
they soon went out with zero score.
| The Bulletins began to score at once
when they got the bat, whereupon there
were offers to double bets and to wager
whole fortunes on the result BET yer
| II cents more" said one, and another
wanted to put up papers on the score
The teams consisted of the following
youthful merchants in papers, some of
who may have to do business on credit
tonight, having wagered all their as
sets: Star-Robert McCorrston, Ayau,
George Wond, Simpson, j. S. Crewes,
j. Haughton, p Schmidt, c. White, j.
Carey, Walter Lowe, Grace. Kelekolia,
Lubbock, Manuel Bulletn-Jobo, Clark,
y. Williams All Sin, Holt, H. williams,
Chiffon, Hopii, Bruins, Sam, En- Chez.
Jimmy Kali Cowboy.
The Bulletin boys kept up their speed
throughout the game and 1t the end
they had rolled up score of IS against
l" runs to the credit of their opponents.
When the last addition to the score had
been made the victors marched town
wards, yelling in celebration of the vic
tory, while the other team gathered to
talk of revenge and more practice.
