GETS A CASE
HE DOSEN'T WANT
MRS. GERTz MAKES A SCENE IN
COURT AGAIN AND IS TURNED
OVER TO BROOKS.

Mrs. Anna Gertz made another scene
in the first circuit court this morning
She appeared before Judge Gear with
the motion" which she wrote out and
filed last week and insisted upon read
ing it to the court and demanding her
rights as she puts it. Mrs. Gertz lost
some property years ago by foreclosure
and ever since then she has been in
sisting that she was defrauded and
that most of the attorneys in the coun-
try are in a conspiracy against her.
This morning Mrs. Gertz included
Governor Dole, Judge Carter, Judge
Stanley Judge Humphreys, Gear and
the clerks of his court, j. A. Magoon,
w. O. Smith and others in the general
conspiracy to defraud her. All or most
of those whom she mentioned have
looked into her case and found that she
had no standing in court, but the wo-
man refuses to believe that the laws
will not give her a chance to get some
of her property back. "I will fight for
my rights until | die" she said to Gear
with great emphasis, when the court
tried to tell her that she had no case.
Mrs. Gertz talked for half an hour,
with great excitement while the Judge
found ii impossible to get many words
in. Finally Judge Stanley suggested
that counsel be appointed by the court
TO look into the case for Mrs. Gertz.
Gear at once named Stanley, but the
attorney said he was disqualified, hav-
ing appeared on the other side of the
case. The court then named F. NJ. .
Brooks, who tried unsuccessfully to OBJ
ject.
Mrs. Gertz, whose angry demonstra-
tions had attracted quite a crowd by
this time, wanted Brooks to take up
the matter at once, and read and argue
the motion" but she was finally salts
fled with some nOndescript exceptions"
to whatever ruling the court had
made"
THE law is," said Judge Gear, that
when a person borrows money and puts
up security, if the debt is not paid, the
person who loans the money may seize
the security and sell it, and the bor-
rover cannot get it back years after
wards" Mrs GeTtZ refuses to accept
this law however and she will probably
put in an appearance again, if the ac-
tions of Brooks as her counsel do not
meet with her approval.

LAND OFFERED At
81 AN ACRE
ALL IT NEEDS IS WATER AND
GOOD sOCIETY-BOTH ARE EX-
PECTED TO BE DEVELOPED.

The Executive Council this morning
discussed the proposed Lualualei land
opening and a forestry report from the
Chamber of Commerce. 1t was decid-
ed that the governor srall appoint a
committee to take up the matter of
forestry on all the islands, such action
being in line with the report of the
Chamber of Commerce.
Land Commissioner Boyd was autho-
rized to put up the Lualualei land at
public auction, at an upset price of 81
per acre, in lots of about 600 acres each
The tract will make seven such lots. 1t
is on this island and will prove very
valuable if a water supply is secured
and the terms of the proposed purchase
are such that the buyers will be COM
PEELED to make improvements which it
is hoped will add to the water supply.
Under the conditions of the purchase
one-ffth of the purchase price must be
paid in cash. Twenty-Five per cent Of
the land must be cleared of lantana
within two years and all Of the lantana
must be cleared off by the end of five
years, after the purchase. The pur-
chasers are also required to plant tim
Der, shade or fruit trees. 1t is thought
that the increase of forest on the land
will serve to preserve the rainfall and
perhaps to increase 1t.

MADE NEW RECORD
IN FAST LOADING
GIVEN 1900 TONS OF
SUGAR IN LITTLE OVER EIGHT
HOURS AT RAILWAY WHARF.

A new record for quick loading was
established yesterday at the Railway
wharf with the s. $. Nebraskan. The
vessel arrived about 6 a. m. yesterday
from Kahului and at 8 a. m. the work
of loading her with the rest OF her car
go for San Francisco was begun. EX-
actly ZOO tons of sugar were put into
the vessel in SA hours. Two of the
chutes were used, the sugar being load
ed into two matches. In addition to
the sugar put into the vessel, she took
about 90 tons of miscellaneous freight,
1900 punches of bananas and a guam
tity of pineapples.
This record beats the best previous
record by considerable. About seven
months ago very fast record was
made in loading sugar into the S. S.
Hyades of the American Hawaiian
line. Exactly 1850 tons of sugar were
loaded into the Hyades between a..
m. ana 9:15 p. m, the record of yes
terday being therefore much better
than the Hyades work.
OF the freight sent on the Nebraskan
yesterday 2,3O0 tons were from Kahu-
lui, being the last of last seasons crop
of sugar. The sugar loaded at Homo
lulu consisted of 1S5 tons of X. S. NJ,
and the rest, LOIS tons, of the new sea-
son grind from Kahuku plantation
The Nebraskan may reach San Fran
cisco next Sunday night and certainly
Monday morning. She will sail for
Honolulu December 16, according to
schedule.
The S. S. Nevadan is expected next
Saturday morning from San Francisco.

PROGRESS
made In THE
+. TRIAL RI
The Defense Objects Strenuous
Iy to the Testimony Of Wood.
ward who was Indicted join
tIy With Thompson,

The trial of Alexander ID. Thompson
for embezzlement was resumed this
morning with some very lively tits be-
tween the counsel, Deputy Attorney
General Douthitt and George A. Davis.
The taking Of evidence was constantly
interrupted, so that little progress could
be made, until the judge gave theslaw-
yers a lecture. HS"You can't prove your
case" remarked Davis while Pratt was
on the stand This and a few other
side remarks called forth a warm pro-
test from DOuthitt, and the judge pro-
ceeded to administer a lecture.
Pratts testimony was concluded by
half past nine o'clock. and Deputy Holt
was called to the stand. He was asked
to identify the tax receipts which were
produced aale9ng Pratt's testimony and
which are alleged to be some of those
unlawfully cashed by the defendant.
Davis declared that they We're forged
and objected to them, but the testimony
was allowed.
Joseph Woodward the other defend
ant under the Indictment, was in court.
He and Thompson are at outs now and
do not speak Woodward has made
confession which it is said throws the
onus of the blame on Thompson, and he
is held as a witness for the government.
Joseph Woodward was called to the
stand after a short recess, and his tes-
timony was Immediately objected to by
Davis The objections were based up
on the fact that Woodward is under i'm
dictment with Thompson, and Davis
charged that a pardon had been oner-
ed to Woodward to induce him to tes-
: tify against Thompson. Davis waXed
eloquent over this alleged outrage,
which he declared was as bad as the
use of the rack and the thumbscrew
to eXtort confessions. He declared
Woodward to be a forger, who had
forged Thompsons name to receipts
and charged that Woodward was really
the man who stole the money from the
tax office.
The only question that had been ask
ed Woodward when the argument be-
gan was what is your name?" and the
argument lasted the rest of the MORN
ing. The case of the prosecution de-
pended largely on the evidence OF
Woodward, to connect Thompson with
the alleged embezzlements, and Judge
I De Bolt was bOmbarded with many au-
thorities by both Douthitt and Davis.

POSTMEN TO
BE MOUNTED
THE BAIL WH0 HAD HIS
PRINCIPAL ON A STRING
BUT THE STRING BROKE

\ IT is a maxim of law that
"TheA bail hath ever his prin-
cipal upon a string" But as a
maxim Of experience Judge
Kaulukou asserts that some
times the string breaks. When
the rame of David Kapiiwl, the
alleged bicycle thief was called
in the police court, there was
no answer from the defendant,
although Judge Kaulukou was
present with an excuse. There
were FOUR charges of larceny in
the second degree against the
defendant, Kapiiwi being ac-
cusel in every instance of steal
ing a bicycle. ~.
Judge Kaulukou explained
that since going on the young
mans bail last week he had
neither seen or. heard of the
youth. If the defendant was not
apprehended, 1t would mean
the loss of about 5000 bail. The
court was lenient and granted a
continuance until next Tuesday
in order to give Kaulukou and
the officers time in which to To-
cate the missing youth.

TAX OFFICE
STEALINGS
A HONOLULU MAN WHO
HAS VISITED A SAKE
BREWERY IN JAPAN

]. T. Johnston, -the customs
broker says he is one Of the very
few white men in the world who
have ever been through a sake
brewery. While he was in Japan
during his recent visit there he
was shown through the Kano
brewery at NADIA a place about
ten miles from Osaka, by Baron
Watanaba one of the most inn
portant men in the sake business
The brewery was fitted up with
fairly modern appliances. The
processes are analogous to those
of beer brewing. Rice is malt
ed and then mixed with steamed
rice to set up the necessary fer
mentation. The malt is one pc
culiar to rice and peeaiiar to
sake brewing. Instead of ice
and refrigerating processes, re-
quired low temperatures are Sc
cured by under ground compagt
ments. The process is a COM
plicated one, but Is essentially
brewing and not distilling To
get proof of this was one of the
principal objects of Mr.. John
ston's trip.

Shape for the Coming Campaign

The mystery attending the delay in
the appointment of a United States
Marshal to succeed John Cannon
Short is apparently solved, says the
Wilmington Sem. CDR. Ball has saved
1t for barter in attempting to secure a
denomination for Congress,
"Since the adjournment of Congress
DIR. Ball has offered this appointment,
United States Marshal-to four prom
inent Union Republicans of Kent
county, cOnditionally upon their secur-
ing Union Republican endorsement of
DR.. Balls denomination as the Repub-
lican candidate for Congress. Upon
that condition the place was offered to
David Clark, of Kenton; John Satter-
field, of Dover; George NJ. Fisher, of
Wyoming, and another man of Kent
whose name The Suns informant could
not recall.

"Not long ago Governor Hum, Geor-
ge NJ. Fisher and DR.. Ball met in
Washington, at place and under cir
cumstances in which the drinking of
the health of one or all of them if need
be, was in order. DIR. Ball lifting his
glass proposed the health ofthe United
States Marshal of Delaware, George
NJ Fisher.
Later Mr.. Fisher was invited to
come to Wilmington to confer with
Postmaster Heald and Collector OF
Port Houston. During the interview
the conditions of the offer of the ap-
pOintment were made known. Mr..
Fisher was asked to secure the assent
of the leaders of the Union Republican
party to the denomination of DIR. Ball
for Congress. That was poser. Mr..
Fisher assented to the proposition
that he would like to be United State
Marshal for Delaware, but intimateC
that the conditions were hard. How
ever, he consented to try He did try
but has not yet been appointed to the
proffered Office. Presumably he could
not deliver the goods. 1t is related
that the ''leaders" whom he interview.

ment forestalling the action of the

RIOT ON BOARD STEAMER CLIO.
COlOred Excursion From Odessa and vicinity
EnrOute for Washington Park, Cause a
Fearful Riot on the Delaware River.

Benjamin franklin Empson, colored,
was held in $500 bail by Magistrate
Vanarsdalen of New Castle Saturday
on the charge of assault with intent to
commit murder. William w. Rose
purser on the steamer Clio, and Levi
Lote of Odessa, were named in the
warrant for Empson's arrest as the
persons whom he had assaulted. The
colored PEOPLE of MiddletOwn, Odessa
and McDOnough gave an excursion
Saturday to Washington Park on the
steamer Clio. Many of the folks
aboard were feeling in a happy mood
when the steamer left her dock. Be-
fore she reached the Delaware river
the "bones" began to rattle. Disputes
over crap games caused loud words
and blows and in a very short time
revolvers, razors and brass knuckles
were in evidence. Fannie NJ. Clifton
was shot in the side, Levi Lote was
stabbed and half a dozen others had
their faces disfgured by the brass
knuckles used by the men. The
boat crew was unable to cope with the
crowd. Turn in what direction the
boatmen would they were carried away
by surging crowd of cursing, fight
ing colOred people. Men and women
We'd in making noise. Finally the
Clio was landed at New Castle and
Purser Rose, who had been badly used
came ashore and Officer Matthew
Tobin ana half a dozen of deputies
went aboard and arrested five men and
one women. They were placed in the
Jail until Empson was given hearing.
The colored people who came off APP
peared as witnesses as Rose knew but
little of the occurrence. The testimony
ofthe cOlored people was that Empson
was one of the ringleaders.
He was then placed under bail for
his appearance at court and in default
was taken to the workhouse by Detec
tive Ratledge and Officer David
Wardle.
1t is understood that the woman who
was shot was taken to a Philadelphia
hospital. More arrests are likely tC
follow.
