FIRE CLAIMS
INSURANCE CASE

Judge Gear this morning heard the
important case of Sing Chong Company
against the members OF the Fire Claims
Commission. Hatch 4 Silliman appear
ed for the complainant and Attorney
General Z. p. Dole for the respondents.
Mr.. Silliman read the complaint. 1t
recites that the Commission awarded
the complainant but s45SO.s5 instead Of
the amount Of actual loss 1t had APP
praised, namely, s7S7795. The original
claim was for loss OF 81 900 and odd
1t is further complained that the Com
mission had noted on the award that 1t
was subject to the subrogation of s32S7
in insurance companies named.
An interesting episode occurred be-
fore Judge Robinson this morning. J.
J. Dunno appeared for the petition OF
Kahoanu to be appointed administrator
Kahanu, deceased. He stated that a
will Of the deceased had been broken
by Judge Gear and no appeal taken
from the decree.
c. w. Ashford came forward and
stated that he appeared for Kaalakai.
Asked who that person was he ans
wered. That woman sitting back
there"
Mr.. Dunno put the petitioner on the
stand. In the meantime the woman In
the case was beckoned forward to a
seat by the side of her counsel.
Mr.. Ashford objected to a certain
question.
Il object to the objection" warmly
returned Mr. Dunno. Neither this
woman nor her counsel have any
standing in this court. This is the wo-
man in whose favor was the will OF
Kahanu which was upset. She is en-
tirely outside OF the case"
MIR. Ashford argued that unless all
persons in interest were cited to ap.
pear the proceedings we're irregular.
Mr.. Dunno replied that the woman
was not person in interest. IL don't
wish to be unpleasant" he said in
/ course of discussion with Mr.. Ashford
"but the position take is that you are
not in court at all. You have no locus
aandi."
Il have locus standi," was the re.
tort, and ] am standing in it.
Judge Robinson finally left the right
OF Kaalakai for later ruling and Mr.
Ashford cross-examined the witness.
Charles II. Merriam, indexer OF the
Registry Office. was called to produce
the record OF adoption OF Kahoanu by
kahanu and wife, and Antoine Manue
also gave evidence.

NO SUGAR WAR
DECLARED YET

SAN FRANCISCO, March H-The pro-
posed Consolidation of beet sugar inter-
ests which has kept the speculative mar
ket guessing for so long a time, seems
to be well under way in the East. but
the men prominently Identified locally
with the industry profess to have no in
formation on the subject. Dispatches
yesterday told of the arrival of former
Congressman James Hamilton Lewis of
Washington, in Chicago, with the an
nouncement that "A deal had practically
been completed whereby the many indie
pendent beet sugar companies of the
West would unite to form a single cor
poration, capitalized at SlO0,0W,cOO. and
fight the Havemeyer sugar trust TO a
finish Lewis Is president of the Idaho
Sugar Refining Company, and he said
that he spoke for a number of corpora
tons besides his own. 1t was intimated
that the OXnard influence Of this city
was back of the movement.
Nice-President Robert Oxnard Of the
American Beet-Sugar Company said yes
terday4 THE first news l received OF
the reported consolidation of the beet
sugar companies came In my morning
newspaper. 1t may or may not be true,
but You can say positively that the
American Beet-Sugar Company Is not
| in the deal. | never heard of James
| Hamilton Lewis before and he does not
speak for us in any way. I am quite
sure that he never approached us on the
subject"
In reply to n direct question as to the
probability OF the formation of trust
to fight athe Havemeyer trust, Mr.. OK
nard said: THAT has been proposed
time and again. Perhaps some day the
suggestions that have been offered may
materiallze and it is not impossible tina,
some such results as Lewis speaks OF
may come of present plans. But all that
is matter of speculation. Up to date
there has been no consolidation and no
| definite plans made. so far as my COM
pany Is concerned"
