Practical use of the British Austria

THOMPSON
AGAIN FREE:
Second Indictment
Against Him
Falls.
JURORS ASKED A
QUEER QUESTION
Davis Again Becomes Vlclsn'.
Offer Of Settlement Had
Been Made.

Alexander D. Thompson, former
deputy tax assessor for Oahu, was ac-
quilted last evening on the second
charge of embezzlement Of government
funds. There are still outstanding three |
more indictments, and Deputy Attor-
new General Cathcart announced that
the Territory would push these charges
in spite of the two acquittals. The
third charge will be presented today.
The Jury was out about an hour,
The point of disagreement was upon
the question as TO whether Thompson
had received any of the money collect
ed by Woodward The jury retired at
s o'clock and an hour later they came
into court with request for further
Instructions This was as to whether,
on the assumption that Woodward mad
collected the SIS embezzled, by the IN
struction of Thompson, the latter
would be guilty if he had not received
the money. Judge De Bolt replied that
he would not. The jury then returned
in a few minutes with a verdict of
mot guilty
There were several new features In
the trial of yesterday which were not
apparent in Thompson's first hearing.
Davis started out in his usual vlo-
| lent manner with an attack upon the
Star for an editorial criticism of his
bulldozing tactics in the first case, but
Judge De Bolt finally quieted him by
mildly suggesting that attorneys should
50 conduct themselves as to be above
criticism. Woodward was put upon the
| stand early in the day, after the 1ndlct-
ment against him had been nolle pross-
ed. The prosecution sprung surprise
by eIiciting from this witness informa-
i ton that ne and Thompson had accept
ed bribe of $50 from Chinese for re-
ducing their assessments. This evil
II dence was stricken out upon motion OF
the defense, upon the showing that it
was not embezzlement.
Later in the trial ing Ling, Manoa
valley taro planter, testified that he
had paid to Thompson s35 for which nj
] was to be relieved Of his taxes. TIL:
money had not been paid, in. Cross ex
Al animation brought out the fact that tn
: witness mad not paid taxes since lSs
and suit had been brought against MN
Collector Pratt told also of an one
OF settlement which had been MADE o.
Woodward's relatives and which he un
derstood the defendant was party tc
They were to return the two missin
poll tax books and pay $500 for eac
II receipt missing thererrom. In case tn
:. books were not forthcoming, there wa
,r to be a payment of $1,055, the tot'
y amount represented by the stolen book
Ut Thompson went on the stand IN n
own behalf for the defense. He denle
in toto Woodward's statement and sa
he had never given him the tax DOC
nor accepted any money from him. III
- story of the Chinese bribery was al
denied. Jonathan Shaw was also p

into the union depot at St. Paul, which
is the same that is used by all lines
In that city.
The train Is to be known as The Chi

President Roosevelt's arbitration
commission, which meets tomorrow,
IS one of the most important bodies Of
men ever appointed in this country. 1t
has great duty to perform, and one
that will, if properly performed, do
more to advance the general welfare
than any other accomplishment in
years. If the commission agrees on
stipulations that are equally fair to
capital and labor it will have solved
the greatest problem of the age. The
questions at issue will require the most
careful consideration, for failure of
the commission to effect an adjustment
of the differences VIII undo all the
good work that has been done. The
personnel of the board 1ustifes the be-
lief that the commissioners will DO
their duty well, and that a precedent
will be established in settling those
disputes which are bound 10 come up.

THE AsToRrAN PUBLISHING Co,

1t IL just d century ago that Daniel
Fell made the first successful test of
hard coal in Luzerne county, Pa, for
heating purposes. 1t is said that the
Indians knew OF the 'black stones"
and made pipe bowls of them. Mora
Wan missionaries early came across
the strange mineral in their long
journeys through the woods. Even
after the coal had begun to be mined
II was difficult to sell any. The people
did not understand how to use it and
asserted that 1t would not burn. Sign
ed certificates that ''stone coal will
burn" had to be sold intending pur-
chassrs. Even as late as 1921 the Le-
high and Navigation company sent
but se5 tons to Philadelphia. Hard
coal was first successfully used at the
wire mills of White & Hazard, Falls OF
Schuylkill, through an accident in De-
cemher. 1874 The coal cost SIS a ton.
But ihe men could not Ignite it. In
exasperation they pitched a quantity
Of coal into furnace, shut the doors
and went about some other work.
Some hours later the furnace doors
were found 10 be red hot and the in

mo wonder you city fellows
want to go to the country" said a
prominent Iowa farmer recently.
I'VE have our groceries and dry
goods delivered at our door; we
talk to our neighbors over tele-
phone, call up the doctor, order
our butcher to send five pounds of
porterhouse steak-all over the
telephone. You have these con-
veniences, but when you want to
mail a letter YOU have to take it to
the postof1ice, or hunt up letter
box in which to drop it. We are
ahead of you in this. Uncle Sans

day for letters or anything else we
may have to send out by mail, and
WREN he is there he usually leaves a
letter containing a check for some
thing we have raised on the farm
and shipped to the city to keep

greater attraction every
