Accepts Bail Which Atty. Gen. Dole
and High Sheriff Brown
Say is Inadequate.
The Success to Crime Jurist at His Old Tricks.
Wright Rearrestsd on New Charge of
EmbezzIng Nearly $4,000.

B. Haywood Wright enjoyed few
brief minutes of liberty yesterday af-
ternoon through the instrumentality of
Judge Gear, and was Immediately re-
arrested upon a second charge of en-
bezzlement = of government funds
amounting to $4,9S2.10. Yesterday
morning Wright, whose bail was fixed
at 1900 by Judge Gear, secured q sign
er to his bond, in the person of An
tonino Long, one of the five heirs to the
Long estate. When the bond was pre-
sented to High Sheriff Brown he re-
fused to accept it, claiming that it was
not sufficient surety, in view of the
fact that the estate was assessed at
only $4,000, and the surety owned
but an undivided one-fifth interest. A
visit to Attorney General Dole brought
like refusal, and then George Davis
became indignant and threatened an
appeal to Judge Gear.
The original bond of Wright, fixed
by Judge Wilcox at the preliminary
hearing, was $4,000, which is double
the amount of the alleged defalcation,
but Davis brought the matter before
Success to Crime" Gear on habeas
corpus, and had the bail reduced to
$4,000, even before the trial in district
court had been concluded.
Wright was permitted to leave the
jail yesterday in company with an
officer and George Davis in order to
search for Long, whose presence was
required in the application to be made
to Judge Gear. 1t was nearly o'clock
yesterday afternoon before young Long
could be located on the football field,
and he was taken before Judge Gear,
who had very accommodatingly agreed
to await his arrival in his chambers
at the court house. Attorney General
Dole was notified and he appeared to
object to the approval of the bond.
He eontended that the entire estate
was worth but $45, 900 according to the
assessors books, and that Long had
but an undivided one-fifth interest,
which could not be sold, and which
would not bring double the amount of
the bond, or $4,000. if sold at forced
sale.
Long went on to testify as to the

Wants More warships

WASHINGTON, Oct. Is. = United
States Minister Bowen at Caracas to-
day cabled the State Department ask
ing that one or perhaps two warships
be sent to reinforce the gunboat Mariet-
ia at La Guayra, in view of the present
critical situation which has arisen at
the Venezuelan capital.
Some time ago when President Castro
left his capital, Minister Bowen ex-
pressed to the State Department his
fears that an occupation of the capital
by the revolutionary forces would re-
suit in rioting and pillaging and be at
tended with great danger to unprotect-

value of his property, and his state
ments were backed up by Davis, who
insisted that his share in the estate
is worth much more than double the
bail bond, and that he had qualified
under the statute as a bondsman.
Judge Gear sustained the contention of
Davis, holding the surety to be suffi-
cient and ordered the release of the
defendant. Wright was given his lib
erty, and then Attorney General Dole
told him that new complaint had
been filed against him, and second
warrant for his arrest was in the hands

The new charge against Wright for
the embezzlement of $4,9S2.10 arises
from the shortage found in his books
as chief clerk in the department of
public works. 1t is entirely apart and
distinct from the first charge, upon
which he has been held to the grand
jury, and which was for the larceny
of the Hawaiian Electric Company's
check for $4,000.

will proceed to build our schoolhouse.
The longer we stay here the better we
like the country; that is the way with
everybody here, they all seem to be
satisfied and doing well. l have
talked with a great many men here
and they told me that they had less
