strike out the amended answer of defend
ants, and also the demand for jury.
Mr.. Dunno stated that while he did not
wish for a delay, and would prefer to
argue the case Immediately, that it would
probably be better to postpone the argu-
ment until answers had been filed by all
respondents.
Attorney Hatch. representing the Oahu
Sugar Company, Oahu Railway & Land
Company, the Dowsett estate, and the
Honolulu Sugar Company, the only re-
spondents which have filed the amended
answers, stated that he was willing TO
proceed Immediately with the arguments
on the jury question. He said his clients
were not seeking delay, and had filed
their answers before the required time
in order that the case might be heard at
once. The Court did not believe any adj
vantage could be gained by taking Up
the cases piecemeal, and stated that he
had already listened to three or four
hours argument on the same question
All answers must be in by Saturday,
and Judge Estee fixed next Monday as
the day when arguments as to the right
to jury trial should be presented.
The motion to strike out the amended
answers alleges that they are unverified,
unauthorized by any rule OF law or order
of court, that they are sham, irrelevant,
unsustained, contradictory. insufficient,
substituted but no amended matter, and
not specific.
OTHER FEDERAL COURT MATTERS.
In the case of Brown VS.. Davidson et
al, for $4,000 damages because of in
| juries resulting from the agreement be-
tween master plumbers and journeymen,
| plaintiff stated his willingness to agree
| to the motion of defendants to dismiss
as to such defendants as had not been
| served. The matter will be formally
presented this morning.
In the case of Pearson & Potter Co.
VS.. the Bark C. D. Bryant, it was agreed
| to submit the case upon the facts as
shown in the McInerny libel. the court
| to render his decision in order that
plaintiffs might except, for the purpose
| of an appeal.
| The libel of the Inter-Island Steam
Navigation Co. VS.. the schooner Dora
Blum also went over until next Monday
| Judge Estee appointed Daniel Kikiha as
| bailiff for the Federal Court, because OF
the vacancy and promotion resulting
from the death of Marshal Ray. The
compensation for the place is but two
dollars per day, and it was with some
difficulty that a satisfactory person was
secured. The Court made the following
order:
whereas, it appears to the satisfac-
| ton of said Court that by reason OF
| the recent death of Hon. D. A. Ray,
| United States Marshal for said District
| the congestion of business in the office
of said marshal will deprive this Court
of the services of Hon. E. r. Uendry,
former Chief Deputy U. S. Marshal and
now Acting U. S. Marshal, as court
room bailiff; and that the proper adj
ministration of justice requires the ap-
| pointment of a court room bailiff in and
| for said Court;
Now, therefore, it is hereby ordered
| that Daniel Ki1iha be, and he is hereby,
appointed court room bailin until the
| further order of this Court, at the COM
pensation in that behalf fixed by law"

The plaintiffs claim to have calls
or options on $50 shares of the COM
panS's 800 "a share stock. and that the
defendants. in the face of tenders
from the plaintiffs for the purchases
of the stock, are attempting to annul
the calls or options and dispose of
the stoc~ to other parties.
The plaintiffs petition to have the
defendants restrained from carrying
out this intention. Judge John j.
Kelly granted preliminary iniunc-
tion in line with the plaintiffs prayer
making it returnable Monday June H.

The bills of complaint in the three
suits are similar in their averments
