THE COURTS.

The temporary injunction to restrain
the construction of the Hackfeld wharf
was temporarily stayed by Judge Estet
Saturday. The compromise predicted in
the Advertiser a few days ago was final
Iy reached, and when the case was called
up in Federal Court Saturday morning
both sides agreed to a continuance fol-
two months. In the meantime the ap-
proach to the wharf may be used and
strengthened If necessary, and the threat
ened interference with the big docks is
no longer feared, and the work on the
wharf win now be rushed to completion
by superintendent Boyd.
When the matter was called by Judge
Estee Saturday morning, Mr.. Hatch APP
peared for the plaintiff, the Oahu Rail-
way & Land Company. He announced
that the plaintiff had been assured by
the defendant. Superintendent Boyd, that
the approach to the wharf would be re-
moved when the work upon it was COM
pleted. He asked that the matter stand
over for 60 days.
Mr.. Robertson appeared for defendants.
and stated that that arrangement would
be satisfactory to Mr.. Boyd. Judge Els
tee then continued the case to the Sec
ond Monday in February. because of the
fact that Federal Court may be in SEES
sion in Hilo al the expiration of the--6l
days
An answer was also filed by the defend
ant, setting out the same facts as We're
given in the affidavit of Mr.. Boyd and
Gotten Bros. a the time the preliminary
injunction was granted.
