That Three Days Close
With Wednesday
Is Believed.
Question Now Is What Will Be
Result Of Commission OF
illegal Act.

What will be the status of the Legis-
lature after Wednesday is a question
which is being largely discussed just
now That failure to meet on Wednes-
day will constitute an illegal act is
considered as well established as can
be any legal fact, but of those who DIS
cuss the matter no two agree as to the
effect of such an act.
The section of the Organic Act which
says that neither house shall adjourn
for more than three days, without the
consent of the other prescribes no
penalty, and sets forth no result Of the
illegality. This makes question which
will be added to the other allegations
of the irregularity of the session, and
of which there may be no settlement
until some act of the legislature is con-
tested in the courts. Governor Dole is
at work on the question, looking up
precedents, and it is expected that he
will ask for an opinion from the Attor-
ney- General today.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1903-05-19

So great is the interest of those who
have the good of the Territory at
heart, that some friends of Governor
Dole yesterday suggested that it is a
matter of such Importance, that the At
torney-General of the United States
should be asked to cable an opinion, so
that pressure might be brought to bear
upon Speaker Beckley to issue a sum-
mons for the members on Wednesday
and thus prevent the illegality which
threatens.
Speaker Beckley yesterday, to an aft
ernoon paper, said that the calculation
of the time of the adjournment began
with Monday morning, which made
Wednesday the third day, and Thurs
sit again. Unfortunately perhaps
Speaker Beckley has in this view the
backing of none of the prominent law
yers. 1t is an axiom in the law
Another is that one day of fixed term
is dropped. Thus the adjournment on
Saturday meant of that day. and not
as to any particular hour. This is in
accordance with the oldest rule of law.
But at the same time it is as we'll
established that if the first day is dis
regarded as a portion of a fixed time.
the last must be counted. Thus if
Saturday is excluded from the. count
of the three days, Wednesday must be
taken into account.
Where the rules of the House are
silent the best rules of the country are
taken, and these are those of the late
Thomas Bracket Reed, who was speak
resentatives. Yet it is a fact that in
the special session fer the passage of
the Dingley law, in the summer of 1897,
fact which is in the mind of many
Honolulaps, as there was a delegation
at the capital fighting against the cut
ting out of the reciprocity treaty, which
was threatened, there was battle of
the giants over the adjournment of
Congress from Thursday to Monday,
with similar provision in the con-
stitution to that in the Organic Act.
Many of the best lawyers in the United
States argued that more than three
days interviewed, and the argument, of
James Hamilton Lewis. of Seattle, was
so elaborate that Mr.. Reed was obliged
TO call wait for q time to examine the
authorities before he would make his
ruling, though of course he upheld the
three days contention Of his party.
There are many theories as to the
effects of the failure of the House to
meet on Wednesday. One is that the
legislature expires, owing to the word
ing of the section during any session"
limiting the time of the adjournment.

not openly admit that 1t has lost faith in
the president. :.
The whole trouble was caused by the
blunder Of the public printer in dismiss
ing Miller from government employ for
the reason that he had been expelled from
the union. Such course Is directly in
violation Of civil service rules. The bind
ers are certain that an investigation Of the
causes which led to Mil1er's expulsion
from the union will result in his dismissal
from government employ under the OWL
service rules. If 1t should not, they will
probably strike. The president is being
kept informed daily by wire by Secretary
Cortelyou. It Is hardly probable that a
the union will make good its charges that
Miller Is a highly undesirable man to
work with, and that he is disturbing
element In the bindery. thus bringing him
within the section of civil service regula-
lions permitting removals for cause.
If the public printer had required rea-
sons for Miller's expulsion from the union
and had then had an investigation re-
sulting in dismissal from the government
employ for the good of the service, there
would have been no controversy.
Much will depend upon Miller's attitude
after reaching Washington. He will be
tried by the civil service commission on
the charges which the binders have filed
and the result will determine his future.
The charges In the affidavit are the
same which led to Miller's expulsion from
the union. Officers Of the union deny Wig
orously that expulsion was in any man
ner determined because Miller had cheap
ened work in binding. They deny all his
statements regarding excessive cost, etc.

OF BLACKMAIL
Trial of Lawrence Murphy, Ex-T Treas
urer of Stoneoutters' Organize
ton, Interesting.
Questions Asked Indicate That Con-
tractors Have Been Mulcted Of
i 100000 Within a Year.

New York. July 2S.-Before Judge New
burger in general sessions yesterday, the
taking OF testimony began in the trial of
Lawrence Murphy, former treasurer OF
the Journeymen Stone Cutters associa-
ton, for grand larceny in the theft Of all
the funds Of the association. amounting to
$12,794
It developed that Murphy's counsel will
put in the defense that the funds he is
charged with stealing were not legitimate
dues and fines Of the organization, but
extortion money wrung from builders and
contractors under threat. Counsel made
the open assertion that one builder in
Brooklyn had been forced to pay the union
men $4,000. Questions were put by de-
PENDANTS counsel to make 1t appear that
counsel was In possession Of information
that, In the last year, over 100000 had
been paid to unions in this city by bosses
and employers for fines assessments and
expenses"
At one time defendants counsel asked a
witness if it was not true that one builder
in New York had paid $4,000 to settle
some difficulty with union.
The witness. who was union man,
answered that he would not tell II he
knew.

that it was impossible for the claimant

not denied. The hearing will probably

French Cardinals Fear "the AmerIeanix.

New York Sun Special Service.
London, July pa dispatch to the
Daily News from Paris says that six of
the seven French cardinals will attend
the conclave. They will support an Ital-
ian for pope, being united against any
attempt by Cardinal Gibbons to infuse
American ideas into the assembly.
Certain members of the French epis-
copacy have already set their faces
against the Anericanization of
Catholicism. Mgr. Turinaz, bishop OF
Nancy, has written a pastoral letter on
this subject deploring the tendency of the
younger generation of French priests to
adopt the views of Cardinal Gibbons and

inaz Is convinced, would lead to schism
