LOWER COURT SUSTAINED.
On Saturday In Two of the Decisions
Recently Appealed.

The Supreme Court on Saturday con-
firmed two decisions which came up
from the lower court recently.
The court held that KaHikia, an idiot,
who had decided a piece of land for 500
to one Hapa, not being of sound mind,
was consequently unable to execute
such an instrument. The land is worth
from $3.50 to $1,000. Samuel Keka ap-
peared as the complainant in the inter
ests of Kailikia.
In the case of Kealoa and Kuklea

en- that undue influence had been used
in obtaining possession of certain
piece Of Honolulu property, was also

AGAINST RUSSELL SAGE.
Suit to Determine a Traders Right
in a "Put" Transaction
Begun.
PLAINTIFF AND DEFENDANTS STORIES.
The Ground of Action In Located in
the Recent Boom and Subsequent
Collapse in Certain Stocks In Wall
street-Mr. Sage Obtains an Ex-
tension.

New York, June 19.-In the su-
preme court of this state suit for
$25.0OO has just been brought against
Russell Sage, who introduced the
business of trading in puts" and
''calls," by Robert d. Vroom, who,
for years, has been accustomed to buy
these privileges from him. The ac-
tion is an outgrowth of difficulty
which occurred on May o, the day of
the panic.
Mr.. Vroom came into Mr.. Sage's Of
fee on the morning of that day
holding, among others, puts" sold
by the latter on 500 shares of Chicago,
Rock Island & Pacific.
The stocks in which Mr.. Vroom had
the privileges were then selling so
low, according to the tape, that if he
could buy them about those figures he
could deliver them to Mr.. Gage at the
figures named In his puts" and make
net profit of many thousands. He
handed his privileges over to Mr.. Sage
who has them yet-and asked the
financier to buy in the stocks for him
as a broker, whereupon he would then
sell them to Mr.. Sage at the put"
price.
From this point the stories diverge.
Mr.. Sage said recently, in discussing
the meeting;
"Rock Island was selling at 1870
when Mr.. Vroom, who held my puts"
on 500 shares at prices ranging from
140 to 1853, gave me an order to buy
it at the market. | turned the order
in to my brokers, But the tape was
Is minutes behind time, and the price
they had to pay was 1855. OF course
this showed no profit to Mr.. Vroom,
but l could not help it,"
j. II. Miller, the plaintiffs attorney,
said in the course of an interview
explaining his clients side of the
case:
"Mr. Vroom demanded back the
privileges, but could not get them.
"Now, those privileges were worth
more than the actual profit that could
have been made on them in the trans
actions he authorized Mr.. Sage to
make. We think we have good
case"
Mr.. Sage, through his counsel, has
obtained an extension of time till
June 80 in which to file his answer

spondent of the Tribune says:
But the most interesting element y
the function of the house of lords. If
the grand jury indicts Earl Russell
for bigamy he will not be tried by an
ordinary criminal court, but by the
house of lords, since that is his priv

was the trial of peer on criminal
charge 40 years ago, when Lord Car
digan was charged with duelling
This was a criminal offense, and ne
was tried by the house OF lords. The
procedure is so unusual that veteran
British lawyers forecast that it will
be the last instance of the kind. II
the case actually reaches the upper

this bigamy trial in its broadest as
