JUDGE OBJECTS TO
THE TOUCH
SYSTEM
AN INTERPRETER
THAT THE COURT Is NOT THE
TREAsURY-HOw AN EDITOR
MAKES HIS LIVING.

The first circuit court began sessions
with a new jury this morning and after
hearing the excuses of men who did not
want to serve as Jurors, Judge Gear
proceeded to take up the case of Pedro
Rodrigues, charged with larceny in the
second degree.
George Markham objected to serving
on the ground of hard times. Il have
no bank account" he said, "and have
a family to support and 1 understand
that the court has ruled that jurors are
not to be paid this term"
THE court has ruled that jurors are
not to be paid at any term" interrupted
Gear.
"Well, it will be very embarrassing to
me to serve" said the politician. II
live from hand to mouth and have to
support my family"
The court wanted to know If Mark
ham didn't want to get away to do
politics, and Markham admitted that
he was doing in politics. But the first
reason, he said, was that he had to
publish his weekly paper. Politics
came next, and between the two he
made living.
Markham was excused and the case
of Rodrigues was called Judge Gear
wanted to know If the Spanish inter-
prefer was on hand. There is no
money to pay him, but George Nc
Cauley has been serving up to this
time.
IT'S all right If you want to serve,
but 1 don't want you to come round to
the court and borrow fifty cents every
day" said Gear. The court is not the
treasury and it is as hard up as the
Territory"
McCauey said he was willing to wait
and hope that some time he would get
his money
You get better pay here than you
would working outside,-when you get
it," said Gear I'VE will see what can
be done but the outlook is bad"

FEDERAL OFFICIALS
ARREST JEAN
SABATE
FORMER MAIL CARRIER CHARG-
ED WITH EMBEzzLING rs LET
TERs-MAIL MATTER FOUND ON
MAN WHEN ARRESTED.

Jean Sabate was arrested this morn
ing by United States Marshal Hendry
on charge of embezzling mail matter
entrusted to him as mail carrier. There
were about IS letters in his possession,
which he had taken out for delivery to-
Honolulu people last December, and,
according to the accusation against
him, had embezzled and opened for the
purpose of abstracting the contents.
District Attorney Breckons says that
there is a clear case against the pri-
soner. The sentence is a year for each
letter under one section of the United
States statutes, while under others
which may be invoked in the cases of
some of the letters, it is heavier. Sa-
bate is already under indictment in the
Territorial court for larceny.
The letters appear to have been
among Sabate's effects ever since last
December. There are about al letters
of the date of December 2, given to him
for distribution as carrier The EN-
bezzlement of each letter constitutes a
different charge.
The post office authorities are now
going through the letters to see for
whom they were intended, and the ad-
dresses may get them in time. 1t is
not known yet whether the alleged en-
bezzler secured any money or other
valuables from the letters.
The discovery that Sabate had the
letters was made several days ago.
The defendant appears to have care
lessly left them among his personal ef-
fects at his former home. A few days
ago in moving them, the letters were
noticed. Sabate was told to send for
his property and did so. He took the rs
letters with him and they were in his
possession when he was arrested this
morning, on warrant sworn to by AS
sistant Postmaster Louis Kenake.
Sabate was employed in the postoffice
for only a brief time. After leaving he
was arrested for the theft of a package
given to him to be mailed. The charge
did not stick and he was released, only
to run up against another charge, on
which the Grand jury of the present
term of the first circuit court brought
an indictment for larceny of a watch,
some money and some clothing from
United States Commissioner Gill. He
is alleged to have stolen money from
cash drawers in several local offices,
and other charges against him have
been threatened.
The defendant came here as a French
journalist. He told story of having
been forced to leave France on account
of his attitude in the press, in defend
inf Dreyfus.
There was no foreign steamer arriv-
ing mere on december z, so tnaL the 4U
letters of that date which were" not
delivered to those to whom they were
addressed were probably all island mail.
the second was a Monday, and mail
from Hawaii, Maui and Kauai was sent
out for distribution that day.
Sabate's preliminary hearing was set
for two o'clock this afternoon, before
Commissioner Gill If he is held to
answer the matter will come before the
Grand jury which Judge Estee has
summoned for next month.
