LEGALITY OF THE COURT
DISCUSSION NOW ON IN DEAD
EARNEST.
Two Speeches In Supreme Court This
Morning, and Others This Afternoon
Several Points.

The matter of the constitutionality
of the Supreme court came up again
this morning before Justice Frear, JUS
tice Whiting and Judge Perry. AS
stated yesterday would be the case, the
petition for continuance in the case OF
j. e. Bush ct al, VS.. Republic of Ha-
! wall, ejectment, was the basis of argu-
ment.
In reply to this petition Attorney
General Cooper presented certain affi-
davits, one of which showed that Chief
Justice Judd had drawn his salary OF
last month. This was intended to prove
that the Chief Justice did not consider
that he was out of office, nor would be,
until his successor was appointed.
Mr.. Magoon questioned the court as
to whether argument should be upon
the validity of the affidavfts, or upor
the formal resination of the Chief Jus.
tice and it's intent
Mr.. Gear stated that there was more
than one matter to be presented in
connection with the subject of the Chief
JuStioeShip; matters which he regretted
as much as any other member of the
bar. 1t was intended to show that the
Chief Justice, if he had not resigned
had abandoned his office and, moreover
had a physical disability which dis
qualified him in occupying the office
now claimed for him. 1t was the in
tention to present all of these mat
ters together, but with the new phase
assumed, it would probably be better
to take one at time.
| Mr. Magoon gave as his opinion thai
the matter before the court was the
resignation of the Chief Justice, and
that only.
After a consultation of the judges
Justice Frear announced that the cour
was ready to hear argument on the
matter of the resignation.
! Mr.. Long, of the firm of Magoon &
| Long, took the floor on the side that the
resignation took effect from the time
that 1t was submitted, and that the
court was not constitutionally formed
! Mr.. Long continued his speech unit
! just before noon, going exhaustivelH
into the subject of the resignation OF
the Chief Justice and it's significance
| Following him Mr.. Magoon addressed
the court for few minutes on the sub.
| ject of the law in regard to the absence
of a head to the Supreme Court.
This afternoon George d. Gear is ad
dressing the court on the subject be
fore it, He will be followed by Attor
ney-General Cooper. The latter ha.
formally stated to the court that tn,
Government WIS satisfied as to tn
legality. of its present personnel anC
was prepared to go on with any case
in which the Republic was interested.

THE RENEFTT RASERATJ.

Tickets for the benefit baseball game
to the late Togo Jackson were issued
this morning and are being sold about
town. They are going like hot cakes,
all the friends of deceased buying a few
of them, Colonel c. ]. Mccarthy start
ed the ball rolling by buying 100 tickets.
paying 500 for them. 1t is now hoped
that quite a neat sum will be realized.
Assurance comes from both sides that
the game will be one of the best and
most amusing ever played in Honolulu.
1t will take place Friday week for the
reason that the minstrels will have a
matinee Saturday afternoon.

.BON WONG ASSOCIATION A RAT killer WANTED
THE CHINESE CONSUL EMPLOYS
COUNSEL.
Will Fight Application of Progressive
Society for Charter Before the Cabi-
net-Small Talk.

The Bow Wong Progressive Associa-
tiOn matter was before the Cabinet
again this morning. Paul Neuman ap-
peared, representing the Chinese con-
sui, and on the side of the question
which would deny the charter To OFF,
set this there was a letter from w. A.
Henshall, attorney for the applicants
for charter, setting forth in detail the
objects af the association, which was
read.
1t is understood that Mr.. Neuman and
his client have no objection to the char
ter for an organization as described in
the application, but the latter seems
| convinced that the real character of the
| society has not been stated. On the
| other hand 1t is an undisputeu fact that
some of the oldest and most RESPONSE
| BILE Chinese in the country are spon-
| sors for the new society.
After considerable discussion the
matter was postponed to Friday morn
ing, when a decision in regard to the
matter will probably be reached
There has not been anything in years
to so stir the Chinese colony as this
matter. Never before has an appllca-
ton for Chinese charter of any sort
excited so much intrest. This is the
first time here, and perhaps anywhere
else, that a consul has taken a hand in
such an affair, and is certainly the first
time in history that a consul has lodged
a protest with the transition" admin
| istratiOn of a Territory of the United
States in such a matter.
In the Chinese community but little
else has been discussed for two days.
\ 1t would seem THAT the Bow Wong
| Progressive Association has received
enough advertising to insure it's sue
| cess, at any rate. Feeling in certain
circles against the consul for his atti-
tude is very strong. At the same time
| that dignitary has friends. 1t will be a
| long time, however, before the breach
between the clans is healed

HOW TO SAVE DOCTOR BILLS.

We have saved many doctor bills
since we began using Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy in our home. We keep
a bottle open all the time and when
ever any of my family or myself begin
to catch cold we begin to use the Cough
Remedy, and as a result we never have
to send away for a doctor and incur a
large doctor bill, for Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy never fails to cure. 1t
is certainly a medicine Of great merit
and worth.-D. S. MearlSle, General

IMPRovEMENT NOTED

Domingo Ferriera was fined Sc and

The evidence was somewhat contra
dictory, though it was clear there was
some heedlessness. But 1t seems Fer

is not Of the highest.

the court. Usually, you are up here
for beating a woman; this time it is a

WILL FISHERS IDEA.

Colonel Will e. Fisher is not in SYM
pathy with the idea of keeping private
rigs hustling about on the streets. He
says that such system is a mark of
a small town, and not city-a bustling
big city, as Honolulu is becoming. In
other words, in making it "hot" for
shopping rigs the police are impeding
an avenue of trade that is recognized
in large cities as most important. The
Colonel thinks the remedy for crowded
streets is a little hustle on the part OF
the government in widening the same.

BOARD LACKS FUNDS.

The Board of Health is now absolute
ly without plague funds on account Of
the failure of the Council of State to
appropriate. From the cashier of the
Board it is learned that a large num-
ber of employees whose salaries were
due last week, are anxiously inquiring
about their money. Many of then have
suffered fire losses and are in needy
circumstances. Nearly $150O00 is now
due by the Board on account of the
plague and must come out of the pend
ing appropriation.

INFECTION HARD TO TRACE.

The source of infection in the case OF
Kakoohano has worried the Board Of
Health worse, perhaps, than any other
since the outbreak of plague in he
cember last. 1t has been found out that
the man stood guard for the Board
over the infected premises near the
Waikiki turn. But this was nearly a
month ago. Since then he was engaged
in some work of clearing up there. IN
the meanwhile, and even later than
that, he was all over town, and ii is
said he usually went barefoote1. 1t is
not shown that he was in the stables
at Iwilei, which is the only infected
place now known to the Board.

REWARD OFFERED.

Marshal Brown has offered a reward
of $50 for the capture of Animoto, the
Japanese alleged to have killed Horie at
Kahuku last Saturday night. The iden-
tifcation of AnimOto is easy because
he received severe cuts in the fight and
by other marks of indentification. 1t
is thought that he is being harhoied
somewhere, and that the reward will
tempt somebody to deliver him VI.
