SHIP .DUNEARN
OUT FROM
CARDIFF
Bark Andrew WeICh Sights a
Ship Which is Believed to be
The Overdue Dunearn From
Cardiff,

One of the overdue vessels is thought
to have been sighted by Captain Drew
of the bark Andrew Welch which ar
rived last evening from San Francisco.
The British ship Dunearn now out 2OS
days from Cardiff for Sitka is the Ves-
sci that is thought to have been passed
Reinsurance of 20 per cent was quoted
on the vessel on December 20 in San
Francisco.
The unknown vessel was sighted last
Sunday morning when in Latitude %
north Longitude 142 west. She was
then standing north northeast. Cap
tain Drew says that he was surprised
at seeing the vessel in that locality so
far west. In over 100 trips between
Honolulu and San Francisco he has
seen but once before, a westbound ves-
sci standing over so far to the west.
The strange craft apparently changed
her course and sailed along parellel to
the Welch. This conduct seemed odd
and it is not likely that the master of
the vessel would have sailed his vessel
in that manner had he not desired to
speak the other boat or else be re-
ported. No signals of any character
were hoisted by the vessel however.
The vessel was unable to keep up with
the Welch and finally passed astern OF
the bark, close enough however to have
showed signals. The vessel then haul
ed and went on her course standing to
the north northeast. The vessels
name could not be distinguished She
flew no flag. She was a four masted
craft iron hull, painted black with
white port holes painted along the sides
with a grey streak under them.
The bark Rhoderic Dhu was also
sighted by the Welch. The Welct
came down in good time, making the
trip in 16 days. She brought a full
cargo and one passenger, Mr.. Howe.

FROM THE SHIP
Leicester
CASTLE
Said to Have Headed for Pit.
earn on a Raft Had not
Reached There January
7,

The three mutineers who are report
ed to have escaped from the ship Lei
cester Castle some months ago after
killing the second mate, had not reach
ed Pitcairn Island up to January =
The latest news from that island was
brought by Captain De Lano aBfsrt the
barkentine John Palmer which arrived
here January 29 from Newcastle. The
British cruiser Shearwater which left
here December 10 last had not appear
ed at Pitcairn Island. The vessel was
expected to reach Pitcairn Island dur
ing the present month. ..... .....
Captain De Lano says his vessel was
visited by the people from Pitcairn ISL
and but they made no report of the ar
rival of the three mutineers Captain
De Lano is certain that had the men
arrived on the island the people would
have reported the fact to him.
There has always been much mystery
connected with the alleged escape OF
the three men. The British ship Lei
cester Castle put into Queensland
about three months ago and the cap
tain there related story of three AM
erican sailors shipped in San Francis
co having made an attempt to kill him.
The second mate went to his rescue
and was killed The mutineers then
ran forward and launched a raft and
made away in the darkness. No reason
! Tor the unexpected attack OH the master
was given. At the time of the alleged
| crime the Leicester Castle was 300
miles north of Pitcairn and it was stat
ed that the three men were making
| for that place.
The suggestion was made at the time
the incident was reported by the mas
ter of the Leicester Castle that it was
very strange that the three mutineers
should have been able to without be-
| ing stopped by the master, to make
raft and get away from the ship, and
| the opinion was ventured that. they
never would get to Pitcairn Island be-
cause it was not believed by those who
| expressed this opinion that they had
! left the ship in the way 1t was said
| they had
1t was thought that the British cruis-
er Shearwater would be ordered to pro-
ceed from Tanning Island to Pitcairn
Island to try and apprehend the alleg-
ed mutineers, but this does not appear
to have been done, as the Shearwater
had not arrived at Pitcairn Island up
! to January Z.

MUTINEERS
THE DOCTRINE OF
SELF DEFENSE
JUDGE DE BOLT CHARGES JURORS
ON HOW FAR A MAN MAY GO IN
REPELLING AN ASSAULT.

Judge De Bolt this morning gave
the jury in the case of the Territory
against j. Dillon, charged with assault
and battery upon one Joseph George, a
dissertation on the legal doctrine of self
defense. The jurors went out at about
1880 and on the first ballot they stood
six to six but soon after twelveao'clock
an agreement on verdict of not guilty
was reached and Dillon was discharg
ed. He was defended by Thomas l..
Dillon, and on the calendar the case
was marked by mistake: Attorney Gem
eral Andrews for the prosecution and
defendant in person"
j. Dillqn's defense was that the COM
planning witness had attacked him,
outside Sthe Mint Saloon on Nuuanu
avenue. The complaining witness ad-
.mitted that he was drunk and the evi-
dence showed that he wanted a fight
with someone and finally struck Dillon.
| The latter testified that after being hit
| by George once, he warned him. George
struck out again, having reH1arked that
| he could lick any of the prize fighters
I'who had been appearing in Honolulu
recently, and then Dillon handed him
one that laid him out on the sidewalk
and caused him to stay in bed thelnext
day
"The law limits the right of using
force in self defense by necessity" said
Judge De Bolt. when self defense is
| interposed as a justification for acts
done, the first inquiry is as to the alleg-
| ed necessity. When such necessity,
real or apparent ceases, the justifica-
| ton no longer exists. No power can
be used by the party making the de-
| fense, beyond what simply proves ef-
! fectlve. If an assault is made 1t may
be repelled by force sufficient for sell
| defense. That is, when the com.
planning witness struck the defendant
the defendant could use such force as
was reasonably necessary to repel the
force, and no more. The law requires
that no more violence shall be used in
defense that appears to the person de-
Tending his rights to be reasonable un-
der the circumstances to repel the as
| sault"
The jurors were: j. Spencer, J. II
Black, w. Lucas, ]. Richards, NJ. w
Parkhurst, Albert f.. Lloyd, c. b. Gray
| c. Dickerson, Herman Meet, f. o.
! White, ]. Steiner and L. e. Pinkham
! The verdict was the first acquittal this
| term.

THE CHURCHILL
IS L|BELLEO
SCHOONER SUED FOR $500 FOR GO
ING TO BLEELE WITHOUT FIRST
ENTERING AT A CUSTOM HOUSE

A libel was filed this morning by
United States Attorney j. j. Dunno
against the schooner Churchill, Captain
William Treanor for $500 for violation
of the laws regarding the entry of ves-
sells. The complaints sets forth that
the schooner left Newcastle on Septem-
Der 80, 1902 destined for Eleele, Kauai,
and that on December 10, she violated
section PIP of the revised statutes by
going to the port of Eleele, which is not
a port of entry, without having entered
at any American Custom house. The
libel is filed in accordance with the re-
cent action of Collector Stackable,
SELLING the vessel on account of the
alleged illegal act.

WAS 1T AN
OVERDUE
CHESTER DOYLE
INTERPRETER
HARBOTTLH REsIGNs-A CHANGE
THAT MAY AFFECT THE TAN
BARA MURDER CASE.

]. X. Harbottle has resigned as in
terpreter of Japanese for the First
Circuit court, his resignation having
been called for as result of COM
plants that he was inaccurate. His
removal may have an important effect
on the Gisaburo Tanbara case, as he
was the interpreter in that case, and
was accused Of many imperfect inter-
pretations. The answer of Judge Es
tee in that case was that he was the
official interpreter of the first circuit
court and the judges of that court all
declared him thoroughly qualified.
Chester Doyle is to be the new inter-
prefer taking his old position again.
Doyle was interpreter for nine years,
under the monarchy, republic and ter
ritory, but he was removed by Hum
phreys at once when the latter took the
bench, and. Harbottle, who was then
connected with. the custom house, was
appointed. Judge Humphreys remov-
ed Doyle by the following letter.
.f .r ,g-, August Is, 1900.
MY Dear Sir: Conceiving that the
interests of public justice will thereby
be conserved, 1 have to request that
you tender your resignation as Japa-
nese interpreter of the Circuit court for
the first judicial circuit by Saturday,
August IS, 1900 1 remain, dear sir,
very respectfully,
"a. S. HUMPHREYS"
Doyle rendered his resignation "to
take effect Immediately on the same
day that he reveiced the letter, and
| has been in the service of the police
department since, having done much
good work as a detective and assisted
in many cases where knowledge of the
! Japanese language was needed. He is
very competent master of both the
Japanese and English language and is
thoroughly familiar with the cour
work.

LOCAL LUMBER INDUSTRY
Big Log Drives on the River Waiting for
Waters to Recede--Locsl Mills Will do a
Heavy Business this Year

The local mills in Lewiston are pre-
pairing to do the heaviest business this
season ever known in the history of the
trade. The local demand for lumber
has exceeded the supply for several years
and still is growing very rapidly, hence
the mills have increased their capacity
and are preparing for a heavy run this
season. The mills have already in sight
about 100000 feet and will contract for
other holdings during the season.
The Small & Emery saw mills closed
down Saturday evening having completed
the run of logs on hand. The raise in
the river last year at the time their an
nual drive run resulted in the loss of
some eight hundred thousand fee, of saw
logs and made them short for the season.
The firm has had force of men at work
on the North Fork of Clearwater river
some as miles from the mouth during
the winter months and three million feet
of logs have been banked ready TO be
rolled into the river as soon as the water
SuDSiuCS W us Natural SldlS anu tlc
amount OF snow in the mountains is re-
duced so as to insure the logs from loss
by sudden rise.
In the mean time the mill crew of
about thirty FIVE men will be taken to the
mountains TO aid the men already there
in preparing for the large drive. AS
soon as the condition of the weather
is such to permit the driving il
will be made. This will take about one
week from the time they are rolled into
ihe North Fork until they are in the
company's booms at the mill. Then the
mill will be working full time i'll order
to meet the demands made on this in
dustry by the contractors and builders.
Never have the saw mills of Lewiston
been able in the last five years to sup
ply the local market With this condi-
tion existing, however, it is we'll known
fact that lumber is from five to ten dol
lars cheaper here than in south Idaho.
The Harrington mills will be run
during the early part of the summer on
RATS purchased from timber men. Their
drive of three million feet of logs will
arrive some time in July. The large
stone piers that hav been built during
the winter will enable them to hold their
logs except in cases of extreme high
water.

STATION AT McCALL'S FERRY
BasaIt Ferry Stops Operation and People OF
Cottonwood Country Want Another Signal
Station at McCalls Ferry

MYRTLE, May IL (special)-The Basalt
ferry has not been running since Friday
noon and the public here is brought to
feel more than ever that there is great
injustice committed against them by the
inconvenience which they are forced to
course it is understood that this condi-
ton exists in all probability because the
railroad authorities do not understand
the situation In the near future the
people will subscribe to a petition stating
the conditions here aud asking the rail-
road to provide sign station at the
Mccall ferrv as relief
AT present the people, or the greater
number OF them, live on the east side,
placing them nearer the Mccall than the
Basalt ferry by two to three miles. The

rent OF the river the ierrymen are unable

ming in the winter or wh4n the river is at
any other than the lowest Stage. At
other times the few people that do live
on the west side of Cottonwood creek are
compelled to walk two miles up the river
to the Mccall ferry and with the people
from the east side walk down the rail-
road three miles &c Basalt.
Besides this, the station at Basalt can
not be reached in any other way by
people OH the north side than by walking
down the railroad track from the Mccall
ferry. This forces the people from the
lower end of the Potlatch that wish to
take the short line train to make this
walk or go to Agatha, eight miles above.
