NEW TRIAL
IN MARCH
The Plantation Will
Not Accept a
Cut.
ESTEE REFUSES
EXCEPTIONS
Pearl Harbor Case Must Be Tried
Again Exciting Time in
Federal Court.

| The second trial of the Honolulu
Plantation Co. case will begin on Mon
day, March Sd. The defendants yester-
day refused to accept the cut in the
verdict suggested as an alternative by
Judge Estee and the court Immediately
! ordered a new trial. 1t will be neces-
sary to call a special court term for
the purpose and a new jury will be
summoned for the same time. This &C
| ton was decided upon only after an
exciting fight in court over the refusal
of Judge Estee to allow defendants ex-
ceptions to the ruling made by him to
be recorded.
When the matter was called up in
the afternoon Judge Silliman appear
ing for the Honolulu Plantation Co.,
asked leave to file a bill of exceptions
to the ruling of the court as given on
Saturday ordering new trial unless
a reduction of $4,000 was accepted.
United States Attorney Dunno OBJ
jected to the filing of the exceptions on
the ground that there was nothing to
except to, until the defendants had sig
nified their intention to accept or re-
ject the offer of the court.
Judge Estee refused to allow the ex-
ceptions, holding that as far as the
record showed the defendants might
still accept the reduction suggested.
There is nothing for us to do added
Mr. Dunno, until the three days
named in the decision are up, and it is
known whether or not the defendant
intends to exert the option given by
the court. Until then there is nothing
for the court to do
II wish to deny emphatically that the
defendant intends to accept the OPP
ton replied Mr.. Silliman. II protest
against this proceeding of the court
and reiterate that the defendant has
not agreed or assented to the courts
decision
THE defendant asked for a new trial
as well as plaintiff" replied Mr.. Dunno.
You cannot except to the order of the
court, then, ordering new trial. 1t is
simply question of money-whether
or not you are willing to accept the
option of the court, and you have no
right to except to anything else
THAT is a misstatement of facts"
replied Silliman. 1T is an error to say
that we asked for a new trial, we SIM
ply were within our statutory rights in
excepting to the verdict of the jury,
and giving formal notice of intention
to move for new trial"
There is nothing here to except to,
said Judge Estee, land L can't allow
the filing of the exceptions in this
court
Il want to except to the courts ruI |
ing upon the motion for a new trial.
replied Mr.. Silliman.
THE court has stated several times |
that there is nothing before it to ex-
cept to-" said Judge Estee.

than the first trial, which lasted five

"a. That said decision is based upon an

an erroneous assumption that the YER

New Method of Smuggling Chinese

A new ruse for smuggling Chinese in

ed train in Montreal a few days ago
with tickets for Johnsbury. Vt. Two
commercial travellers noticed that they
were closely yelled and never spoke a
word. From them a United States Gus
toms officer who was on the train took
his cue and went into the car to inves,
tigate.
AT Richford, Vt, he went his rounds
among the passengers as usual, and the
little reticules of the nuns and his own
bag were handed to him by the priest
These contained nothing out of the or
binary, though the Book of Hours in
sach one was evidently quite new and
unused as yet. The supposed clergy
man was in his bland French way most

When the train next stopped. having

rltory, the man disguised as a priest,
rising in his place. made signal to his
friends and with them left the car. A
few hours later the entire party was
arrested while tramping along near
Troy, VT, by officers Of the United
States customs. The capture has been
kept as quiet as possible in the hope
that the Illicit percolation Of Chinese
into the United States from Canada
might be diminished.
1t is noticeable at the present mo-
ment that Chinese laundries are being
established in several villages within
ten or fifteen miles and on each side of
the Maine and Vermont boundaries. In
all probability these laundries are
merely repositories for the use Of
smugglers of Chinese. the surprising

TO Remove Paint from Glass With
out Scratching the Surface.
If you use any compound contain
ing gritty matter, you are apt to
scratch the glass. Any hard tool,
such as a knife blade, might also
produce scratches. The best way to
proceed is to make use of some sol
rent, depending upon the nature of
the paint. Turpentine and kero-
sene, used separately or combined,
can be employed, and you will find
the paint becomes soft in a few min
utes after application. Then use
wooden cloth saturated with the sol
vent, and you will probably find you
will have no trouble in removing the
specks. II any should remain, apply
the solvent again and, if necessary,
use a piece Of brass filed to a sharp
edge. If dull stain or mark re-
mains upon the glass where the
specks were, use putty powder and
water upon a piece of cotton flannel,
and little rubbing will cause the
surface Of the glass to have a bril-
liant appearance.

monument. which is little over a
mile and half from fashionable Mon
treux and which is visited every sea-
son by hundreds Of tourists, has been
carefully looked after for good many
years by the Swiss government and.
considering its great age, is in stlfpris-
ingly good condition. 1t is known to
have existed as a prison in the eighth
century. and Amadeus w, duke of
Savoy, who built it in 1898, made the
same use of it. Byron found the inspi

The castle has been restored only

in the chamber of the Duke Of Savoy

OCEAN DERELICTS.
The Fanny E. WoIston Roamed Ten
Thousand Miles.


Perhaps it is the natural instinct
to personify every craft that floats;
perhaps it is because they were once
the domiciles of living beings that
makes human interest in derelicts
universal. They are the embodi-
ment of pathos, the menace Of trag-
edy. From the slavery of man they
have gone forth to the freedom Of
the sea, which means, after all, that
they are stumbling blindly on to
that destruction which ultimately
awaits all things which are without
the law. Some of them last but a
day; others float for years. The av-
erage number afoat is usually about
twenty, but in 1873 an average of
thirty-fve a month was reported.
Most derelicts are made off the coast
of the United States In the gulf
stream, and they are prone. to fol-
low in the wake Of the liners. Often
they follow the ocean river around
its great circle, and many of them
get into the Sargasso sea.
The most notable derelict was the
Fanny E. Wolston, a three masted
schooner, lumber laden, which was
abandoned Oct. Is, 1891, and was
last seen in 1894. She drifted at
least 10000 miles, following the
great circle in zigzag way. In this
she differed from the W. t. White,
a schooner which was abandoned off
Delaware during the blizzard of
1888. The White was a fast travel
er and started Immediately for Eu-
rope. At times she attained a speed
of thirty-fye miles day. She float
ed first 10th Grand banks and hid
in the fogs that hang over that re-
gion. She stayed doggedly in the
mist, floating around and around in
a comparatively small circle, loom
ing up suddenly under the bow of
liners, sending cold terror to the
hearts of fishermen, colliding now
and then with other vessels and
making a general nuisance of her.
self. After several months of this
fun she suddenly left one day and
continued her journey to Europe,
grounding at last on one of the
New Hebrides after q cruise of ten
months and a drift of $500 miles.
Then there was the Fred B. Tay-
lor, a schooner cut in half off our
coast by the steamship Trave. The
people on the Traye waited to see
the two parts sink; but, strangely
enough, they remained afoat. They
became separate derelicts, and each
went on a voyage of its own. The
stern stood high out. of the water,
and the wind blew it north, but the
bow, sinking low, was carried south
by the cold shore current which
runs from Labrador south to Hat
teras between the coast and the gulf
stream. The bow was destroyed off
