HAWAII'S NEED OF A CABLE.
Emphasized by the Experience With the
News of McKinley's Assassination.

Emphasized by the Experience With the
News of McKinIey's Assassination.
It is reported that the North German
Lloyd Steamship Company is about to
extend it's lines to Honolulu. The COM
pany is said to have made arrange
ments whereby it will extend its sys-
tenn to San Francisco from Hong Kong,
thus encircling the globe, and Homo
lulu is said to be intended as port
of call.
Hawaii's need of a cable was never
more emphasized than by the expert
ence of the court with the news of the
death of President Mckinley. The
late president was shot, had died and
his body had been placed in state in
Washington before the people of Hon
olulu knew anything of the occurrence
at Buffalo. Flags were half-masted
and public business stopped in Homo
lulu for five days after the body was
laid away. Roosevelt was the presi-
dent of the United States before the
people of Hawaii had any knowledge
of even the fact that there had been
an attack on President Mckinley.

GREAT ARID LAND PROBLEM.
Montona the First State to Build
Irrigation Canals.
$4,000 ACRES IS RECLAIMED.

Helena, Mont, Oct. 14.-What seems
to be good beginning in the solution
of the great arid land problem has been
made by the state of Montana. The
state arid land commission, which was
created by the legislature, with power
to reclaim lands donated to the state
by the government under the Carey
act, celebrated the opening OF the great
canal system in district No 4. There
were present, besides members of the
commission and other state officials,
members of the press and many repre-
sentative engineers and business men.
The canal, intended to irrigate 81, 600
acres of the Carey land, was opened
and water sent to its mission of making
homes for the farmers. District No. 4
comprises 80, 900 acres OF land in the
Dearborn valley, Lewis and Clark coun-
ty. The state proposes to sell this land
in tracts of 16O acres to actual settlers
at only the cost of placing water upon
the land, giving ten years for payment.
in ten equal payments, at 6 per cent
interest.
Eleven thousand acres are now ready
for settlement The land lies in small
valleys, surrounded by low lying hills,
that supply rich grass for stock. The
state is building the canal system and
will own and operate it in perpetuity
for the sole benefit of the occupants of
| the land and without profit to anyone,
making the enterprise entirely cooper
ative in nature. This is the first
irrigating canal on the American con-
tinent to be built and operated by a
state government, and undoubtedly
marks an epoch in the great irrigation
/ plan

LoNG-FOUGHT CASE ENDS.
Suit Begun Twelve Year. Ago, Settled at

Suit Begun Twelve Years Ago, Settled at
Last.
After dragging on for twelve years
and being fought in every possible
American court, suit involving some
important questions in corporation
law has been decided by Judge Kohl
saat, Of Chicago. The verdict was for
the plaintiff
In 1884 Fowler Brothers, the pack
ers, loaned to the Cherokee Brilliant
Coal and Mining company, Kansas
corporation, the sum of $4,000. In
1886 the company failed.
a judgment was recovered in the
circuit court of the United States in
Kansas by Fowler Brothers, and later
a similar judgment was recovered in
the Superior court of Cook county, Ill.
Upon the return "nulla bona" of an
executor a bill in chancery, in the
nature of a creditors bill against S.
Warren Lamson and Lorenzo J. Lam
son, comprising the firm OF Lamson
Brothers, was filed to enforce their
liability as stockholders in the cor
poration.
The bill was fled on October 16,
1890, and in October, 1891. decree was
entered in favor of the complainant
by Judge Shepard in the Superior
court On appeal the decree was re-
versed, the court holding that the
constitutional provision of Kansas
providing for TIE double liability was
not self-executing The case then
went to the Illinois Supreme court,
which held that the constitutional
provision was self executing, but that
the courts of Illinois had no jurisdic-
tion to enforce against resident stock
holders their liability as stockholders
in a foreign corporation.
The case then went to the United
States Supreme court. That court re-
fused to take Jurisdiction of the case
on the ground that the federal ques-
ton had not been sufficiently raised
in the lower court.
The decree in the Superior court was
vacated finally, and the suit dismissed
on February 4, 1897. In August of
the same year the present suit was
instituted in the United States courts.
This suit was subsequently dismissed
by Judge Grosscup, and the case then
went to the United States circuit court
of appeals, where it was argued be-
fore Judges Woods, Jenkins, and
Seaman. The judgment of the lower
court was reversed and the case re-
manded with directions.
The case then came before Judge
Kohlsaat, of Chicago. A jury was
waived and he heard the case last
May, holding it under advisement
nearly five months, in disposing of
the twenty or so points of law, in
volving many important corporation
and Limitation questions. Since the
case was in the Supreme court of
| Illinois that court has changed it's
| position, and in later case holds
| that these liabilities of stockholders
| in Kansas corporations can be en-
| forced in the courts of Illinois.
During the tendency of the suit
George Fowler, the head of the pack
ing concern. died, and the suit has
| proceeded in the name of his executor,
| Charles F. Hutchings. E. F. Thomp-
son has been the Fowler Company S
