under Amusement yesterday by Judge
Wilcox resulted in his honor sustaining
Attorney Andrews motion for a dis
miSSal.
Lorrin Andrews contended that there
was no law of the Territory which re-
quired or authorized the Secretary to
issue such certificates as the defendant
was alleged to have tried to secure.
Yesterday Acting Governor Cooper
testified that defendant had personated
Tom Cow, a deceased Chinaman. His
idea in doing this was to induce the
Secretary to issue certificate of the
original naturalization papers of LON
Cow. Defendant wanted the certificate
as a means of Identifying him to the
local Customs officials so that he could
make a trip to China and return with
out running the risk of being refused
admission.
Mr.. Cooper claimed that authority to
issue certificates was given him in in
structions received from the Secretary of
the Treasury which read as follows:
You are informed that the depart
ment will regard certificates conforming
to the provisions of Section 6 of the
Act approved July 5, 1884, relating to the
Exclusion of Chinese, when issued by
the Secretary of the Territory of Ha-
wall, as being sufficient to establish the
right OF CnlneSe persons OF the exempt
class to enter this country. providing
the statements made in such certificates
are not controverted."
Judge Wilcox held with Attorney An
drews that there was no law which re-
CURED or authorized the issuance of such
certificates. Regulations and rules which
Mr.. Cooper might made for the aid of
his office were not necessarily sustained
by law.
In an interview on the matter yes
terday Acting Governor Cooper said:
Il have absolutely refused to issue
Chinese certificates until I am protected
by law. I will not issue another Chinese
certificate of any kind. The result of
the prosecution of Yong Kong Hung has
decided me in this course. Today several
Chinese came to my Office applying for
certificates but l refused them one and
all" .lsa4a

REV. Mr.. AZBILL CONES TO
DEFENCE OF DIAMOND HEAD

young men believe, as he does, that
IT all happened in this wise:
West Is our familiar Punchbowl,
and little farther the salt lake crater,
all built up Of this soft Illuminated tufr,
which was shot out of the bowels of
the earth as hot mud.
The tuff-fountain, escaping from its
confinement, at once expanded and
spread out like a vast tree. Here at
Diamond Head, which is one mile In
diameter, the bulk of the mud spread
out half a mile in all directions before
ending it's fall. Thus q very exact cir
cular ring was piled up of one mile in
diameter. There was, however, anotn-
er influence, that Of a violent easterly
wind which DETECTED the entire foun-
tain westward, throwing the circular
run about 1,5G0 feet west Of where II
would have been.
THE wind also acted with especial
force upon the highest part or the
fountain, fiinging and piling it up on
the western side of the crater in a lofty
cone"
I don't believe all Of it And as to the
twenty minutes-forty minutes-not
even an hour. is sufficient for gathering
the mud of various colors together, as
appears In the Nominations, 80 as to
spread one above another over the
whole surface OF the rising structure,
like 50 many variegated courses of
brick I don't believe that wind
strong enough to carry the westward
cone into Its present position would
have consented to the very exact cir
cular ring that was piled up one mile
in diameter" A whirl-wind might
have formed the ring, but 1t is an open
question whether it would have left
anything so formidable and SO perma-
nent towering above the bar and Its
associations westward. II the soft mud
had fallen from height Of three miles
it would have reached the earth in
small spheres, as the rain teaches us,
and these spheres plunging into the
already fallen mud, would have left
marks recording this process.
And then, think of trying to involve
old Punchbowl, with it's beds Of black
lava sand, it's metamorphosed rock, its
scorched stones, and Its quarry on the
summit, with this mud-throwing and
instantaneous process! With. all due
respect for DR.. Bishop and geology, and
especially with becoming reverence for
the aged ones that I believe to have
been misrepresented, I ask the young
men Qncluding the Doctor)) who visit
ed Diamond Head a week ago, to re-
consider. W. K. AZBILL.

Bishops harmless imposition on the
lads whom he accompanied to Diamond
Head on the 18th instant, was allowed

RECEIVER ASKED FOR
Stockholders Of Parrot Company
Object to Amalgamation
and Alleg Fraud. Is

st. Paul, April 26.-According to a
special from Butte, Mont, the Heinze
interests in their fight to prevent the
amalgamation of copper companies to-
day filed their injunction proceedings
in New Jersey with a suit in the dis
trict court here against the Amalgam-
ated Copper company, the Parrot
copper and Silver Mining company,
and officers and directors of both cor
porations, to prevent the absorption
of the Parrot by the Amagamated.
Plaintiffs in the action are John Mac
Ginnis and Daniel Lamm, stockhold-
ers of the company, and they ask for
the appointment of a receiver for the
company and to stop all dividends on
stock of the company held by the
Amalgamated. Frauu and conspiracy
between officers of the Parrot and the
Rockefellers, with intent to defraud
minority stockholders is alleged, and
it is charged that the rich ore Of the
Parrot is being credited to other COM
panies of the Amalgamated for the
purpose of increasing their dividends.
A temporary restraining order was
granted upon a bond of $40, 900 being
given.

MAKES NOVEL PLEA
Callahan's Attorney Asks Acquit-
tai and Brings Out Inter-
esting Point.

Omaha, April 26.-After examining
35 witnesses the state rested this
afternoon in the prosecution Of James
Callahan for the abduction Of Eddie
Cudahy.
The defense moved to dismiss on
the ground that the allegation of rob-
berry had not been sustained. The jury
a excused and the motion argued,
bringing out an interesting point. At
torney Mcfarland, for the defense,
strove to show that Cudahy had Civ
IN up his gold freely and of his own
v%olition. He said further that the
packer had gone fully armed to the
rendezvous and had been put in no
bodily fear. The offense therefore,
MacFarland said, did not constitute
highway ROBBERY.
General Gown, for the state, took
the ground that although Cudahy was
put to no personal fear, he gave up
his money under stress of anxiety, lest
his son should be deprived of his sight.
This constituted active force, the at
torney said, and operated identically
as if he had been neld up by highway
men.
Judge Baker sustained this view and
the hearing continued.

HAS DESIGNS
ON AMERICA
OBJECT OF GERMANY's NAVAL
EXPANSION.
LONDON REVIEWS OPINION.
Believes Kaiser Is Preparing to
Make Onslaught on Monroe
Doctrine.

London, April 2t.-The Saturday
Review will say tomorrow that the
expansion of the German navy is more
in preparation for a contest with the
united States than with Great Brit
ain because the readiest causes for
future naval conflicts will be found
in the struggle for the partition or
exploitation of the great South Ameri-
ear continent.
The Review devotes a page to a de-
scription OF South America and Ger
man settlers in Brazil and the inabili-
ty of Germany pursuing her designs
on South America without a conflict
with the United States. The article
concludes with the statement that it
will not be good policy for Great Brit
ain to oppose Germany's legitimate
aims and that an alliance with the
United States that had for it's pur
pose the maintenance OF the Monroe
doctrine would not only be ludicrous-
~ in opposition to our interests, but
it would rightly arouse every other ma
ton to a death struggle against a gen
uine Anglo-Sagon menace"

beyond the announcement that apart
from the accident all was well. The
New York proceeded westward MAX
ing good progress with one engine.
A strong northeast wind was blowing
at the time and the sea was rough.

encountered some fog and was obliged
to proceed at reduced speed.

President Considers Petition For. Par
don OF Mckenzie.

#HN nL6"L. E- [Ta .-N.M
Washington, April 26.-Attorney
General Knox, after the session Of the
cabinet today, took up the petition for
the pardon Of Alexander Mckenzie.
Mr.. Knox had a carefully prepared
brief giving all of the points in the
case. He also had the decision of the
circuit court of appeals and that of
the supreme court of the United
States, denying a writ Of habeas cor
pus. Certificates of two or three ply
sicians setting forth that Mckenzie
was broken in health were also in the
hands of the attorney general who, it
is believed, recommended that execu-
tive clemency be shown.
The Importance of this case, and
the interest taken in McKenzie's be-
half, was fully considered by Presi-
dent Mckinley. After going over the
case the president decided not to take
definite action today.
The report that a reply had been
received from the San Francisco
judges was Their answer

CHINESE ROBBERS
Raid Villages and Await With
drawal of Allies to Continue
Massacre of Christians.

London, April 26.-The Reuter- Tele-
gram company has received the follow
ing dispatch from rekin:
"a band of robbers estimated at
1000, is operating 20 miles south of
Pao Ting Flu. 1t has raided three vii
lagos within a week and threatens to
massacre all Christians in that vicini-
ty, many OF whom nave fled to Pao
Ting Flu for protection.
I'm Man Chung district north of
Pao Ting Flu, another strong band is
committing depredations and has an
nounced it's intention to attack the
city of Man Cheng, where there is a
post OF 20 German soldiers. Compe-
tent observers believe that the worst
class of Chinese are only awaiting
the withdrawal Of the foreign troops
to continue the pollcy of extermina-
ton against Christians.
Boxers who are reported in these
districts are composed of the worst
characters in the provinces. They
prefer brigandage to honest labor and
they are reinforced by people rendered
desperate by being driven from their
homes, by having. their horses and
cattle seized by foreign troops, and
in many cases by being compelled to
witness the killing of their kinsmen
without provocation.
THE movement appears to be grow
ing. No doubt the state OF affairs is
much worse than 1t was two months
ago and it must continue to grow
worse SO long as the allies fan to pre-
vide a stable government or allow
the Chinese to deal with the situation
in their own way"

TEXAS OIL FIELDS.
Come Under Control Of Standard Oil
Company.

Beaumont, Tex, April 26-The
Beaumont oil exchange today posted
a statement that the Standard Oil
company had purchased railroad ter
minals, wharves and shipping facili-
ties at Port Arthur and 10000 acres
of land surrounding that point.
Port Arthur is the cares tdeepw water
port to the Beaumont Oil field and by
controlling this outlet the Standard
Oil company can control every barrel
of oil taken from the Beaumont fields.
Railroads cannot compete in freight
rates with pipe lines and ships via
Port Arthur to New Orleans and
Galveston. Thus, owning Port Arthur,
the Standard Oil company will control
even the domestic trade in crude oil.
