VALUES ARE RAISED
MORE PEARL HARBOR PROPERTY
ESTIMATES.
Captain Merry and w. G. Ashley on
the Sandstone of the Jurors Use
Note Books.

Pearl Harbor land values took some
thing of jump this morning In the
United States District Court, when w
G.. Ashley was placed on the stand as
an expert witness on the question of
values. Ashley made an estimate of $50
an acre for the average. This is the
highest figure yet named by the wit
nesses.
Pearl City lots, with waterfrontage
were valued as high as $500 by Ashley
and he stated that about half of the
land was suitable for cane-growing
When asked what cane land ought to
produce Ashley said that it should give
about 8 tons to the acre worth $50 a
ton net. He did not know that the
particular land in question had ever
produced any cane. Ashley was on the
stand most of the morning.
Captain Merry, port commander, was
also witness. He produced the cor
respondence between the government
and the Bishop estate on the subject of
the purchase of the land Merry told
of the negotiations and their failure
and Dunno offered in evidence a letter
from the Bishop estate, Offering about
500 acres of the land for which the gov
ernment is now suing, at $50 an acre
The captain stated that the govern
ment never took any action regarding
the offer. This offer, 1t Is understood
is still open, but the company does not
include the waterfront, which the gov
ernment is now taking with the rest.
Kinney's cross examination of Merry
was brief, but he went into the subject
of values at great length with Ashley,
and succeeded in getting some raises
of value.
Many of the jurors have taken to
using notebooks and they may be seen
writing down points of evidence. This
is specially the case when figures are
offered. Some of the jurors will have
quite a record of conflicting figures to
take into the jury room with them.

LICENSES TO BE AUCTIONEU
OFF.
Treasurer Wright viii Sell HonoluIu
License on Friday at Noon-License
in Every District.

In accordance with a Hawaiian
statute passed in 1896, Treasurer Wright
has announced an annual sale of licen-
ses to sell ava in the various taxation
districts of the islands. The law pro-
Vides that between the first and seventh
day of December of each year. the Ii
censes shall be sold, each license to
cover district and to be good for one
year from January to January.
The privilege of selling ava is regard
ed as quite profitable. The legislature,
as means of regulating the sale and
use of the stuff decided upon the plan of
having only one license in each district,
and auctioning off that license At
present the license for the district of
Honolulu is held by G. n. All who is
therefore supposed to be the only man
in the district dealing in Ava. Ava is
a native drink that is said to inebriate
more than it cheers. 1t produces it's
own variety of jag, during the contin-
uance of which the subject does we'll
not to attempt walking.
The sale for the district OF Honolulu
and other Oahu districts Will he held
at the Capitol Building, at noon Cn
Friday December g. In the other dis
tricts the exact hour of the sale is left
to the sheriffs and deputies. There is
an upset price on the Honolulu license
of $1,000, so that at best the man who
gets the license will pay a full annual
saloon license. The upset price at Hilo
is $500 Wailuku's upset price is the
same as Hilo's, Lahaina is $3.50 and for
all the other districts it is 800.
The law provides that mo cultivator
of ava shall sell ava to any person not
holding a license to sell ava, except for
expectation -

BATTLE WITH GALES
TAMPICO HAS VERY ROUGH EX-
PERIENCE.
FOrecastle Head Rail Carried Away
by Heavy Sea-Vessel Had to be
Hove to for Hours.

After the toughest kind of a voyage
the freight steamer Tampico, Captain
w. Reed, arrived in port this morning
from Seattle and Port Townsend with
a general cargo. The vessel left those
ports November H. and ever since she
has been laboring with gales and heavy
seas.
The bad weather set in November 19,
with squalls from southward to east
ward which finally increased to south
to southeast gales, with heavy swells.
The vessel rolled rails under, most of
the time, and within a few days, she
was full up with water on her fore and
aft decks. The water also washed into
the deck cabins.
Once she shipped an unusually heavy
sea, which carried away the forecastle
head rail and swept number of arti-
cles which We're lashed on the head,
down onto the main deck. Four times,
the boat had to be hove to and on
one occasion, she was hove to for eight
hours.
Chief Officer James r. briggs says
that it is a wonder the boat ever
weathered the gales which continued
almost to the time Honolulu was reach
ed. On November 10, the American
ship General Fairchild, bound south
from the Alaskan canneries, was sight
ed in latitude 1851 north longitude,
129.5S west She was bound for San
Francisco.
The Tampico has a good sized cargo
for this port. She brought two passen-
gers, DR.. Jenningson and Mr.. Robert
son. Agent Beebe of the Globe Navi-
cation company was considerably re-
lieVed when MS vessel arrived, as she
was considerably over due.

MOTE AND BEAM

Several of the ladies belonging to the
second congregation at St Andrews
have expressed umbrage at the re-
marks of Bishop Willis at the synod
meeting last night anent the setting up
of grab bag and other elementary
attractions possessing elements of
chance at their Mother Goose festival
The ladies consider that the bishop
overlooked the beam in his own eye
while searching for the mote in others,
inasmuch as at an entertainment given
by the bishops particular flock last
year, the ladies of that congregation
helped to swell the Golfers by the pro-
ceeds of rattle for a calabash the
rattle containing those very elements
of chance which We're prorogued by his
lordship last evening.

JARRATTS, VA, Dec. 9.-The case OF.
Emmett Gillian. charged with seduclns
and abducting Matte Smith. the daugh-
ter of Thomas Smith, near this place, was
tried at Sussex Courthouse, beginning on
Thursday and ending Saturday night
about midnight. The first charge. that of.
betrayal, was thrown out because of the
girls refusal TO testify against Gillian,
or rather she exonerated Gillian ana
shouldered the blame OF the whole affair
herself. Her course seems ineXplicable,
and her persistent refusal to talk ever
since the occurrence or in any way im-
plicate the man has had the effect Of dis
gushing her friends, and the public has
withdrawn much of its sympathy for her.
One superstition is she could not COM
prehend questions put to her by counsel:
another is that Gillian while out on bail
must have seen her and arranged this
line of testimony. On the second charge

and consuming much time, the case being
ably argued by Commemorative Attor-
ney w. B. Cooke and T. Junius Person.
of this place. a verdict of guilty was ren-
dered and a ten-year sentence in the pen-
Tertiary was given him
The charge against Anna Allison the
sister Of Gillian, for abduction and aiding
Gillian, was continued until the next
term of the court The people here. who
have looked on the case with horror from
the first, though never at any time Of
fering any violence. approve the sentence.
1t is not definitely known but it is
supposed the counsel for Gillam-ex-
Judge r. w. Arnold-will endeavor in
some way to have the case reheard.
