OKOLEHAO RAID YIELDS
Up SURPRISING RESULTS
About Seventy Gallons of Illicit Liquor Found
Together With the Largest Still
Yet Captured.

| first thing noticed by the officers was a
dividing line in the mating beneath
him. A rope handle was in one part
and on pulling this one-half of the floor
raised on hinges revealing two deep
tanks filled with mash composed of
hops, kiawe beans and honey, ready for
distilling. There We're barrels of the
stuff and a broom handle thrust into it
was submerged to the wisps.
The Japanese confessed his guilt. He
showed the officers the section of the
house where the still was located
Scraping away loose dirt he showed a
layer of boards and under this, buried
in a pit walled in with wood, there
was revealed large tin stills, pipes and
a Fireplace. Half burned pieces of
wood were scattered about. Everything
disclosed the utmost ingenuity for con-
cealment. Several ten gallon kegs We're
found with okolehao ready for market
Outside the house Chillingworth found
several cases of what was thought at
first to be coal oil. Two cans to the
case were found filled with No. l oko-
lehao In all there were six tive-gallon
cans, or thirty gallons, and the kegs
contained forty gallons, making seventy
gallons in all.
The officers destroyed the tanks and
containers with axes, bringing into
town the stills and okolehao. Several
bags of raw sugar We're also discov-
cred, these having been purchased in
town yesterday afternoon.

WAIALEALE BROKE
SHAFT AT KILAUEA

The Inter-Island companys steamer
Waialeale while entering Kilauea, Ka-
uai, on Tuesday from Honolulu broke
her shaft and was brought into Homo
lulu yesterday afternoon in tow of the
steamer Ke Au Hou which was at Ka-
paa at the time the Waialeale met with
the accident.
AS the steamer was entering Kilauea
at slow speed Captain Mosher signalled
to the engineer to go astern and in
carrying out this order the shaft broke
age, and a telephone message was at
once sent to the Ke Au Hou asking that
vessel to tow her to Honolulu.
Captain TulIett took the Re Au Hou
to Kiiauea and left there with the Wal
aleale in tow at Cos p. m. Tuesday,
arriving here, after smart job of tow
ing had been performed, at 1920 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. The WaialealeI
was of course unable to discharge her
freight and brought it back to Homo
lulu while the Ke Au Hou also had to
bring some of her outward freight back
here but left port again yesterday aft
ernoon to discharge it at her regular
ports of call and get a return cargo.
A new shaft will be placed in the

THE HOUSE.

Washington, Dec. 1A-The House was in session for httIe more than four hours today, during which time there was a general discussion on varied top- ics. The pension appropriation bill was before the House. but no. conclusion on 1t was reached. The isthmian canal and the republic of Panama, the tariff, to- bacco interests and questions affecting labor were dealt with.
 The House on converting today adopted a concurrent resolution providing for a recess adjournment from December l9 to January f. The Speaker. by unanimous consent, appointed Delegate KalaulanoaIe of Hawaii as a member of the committee on territories.
 The House then went into committee of the whole, with Mir. Lawrence (A4ass) in the chair, for the further consideration of the pension appropriation bill.

Under Ruling Many of the Convicted Boodlers Will be Able to
 -, Secure Their Liber. ,. 2.

St. Louis, Dec. Rehabilitation of ,. a decision of the Missouri Saprems Court, which brings into question the IegaIiIy of.s hundreds of arrests- and conyictiops recently made on finformationsi h St. Louis and which. according to Circuit At- tofney Folk. opens the doors Of tie pen< itentiayy, through writs of hAbeas cor pus, to many others, was received here today by that official. Tn the list of cases which. under the ruling Of the court could be affectedsie the plea Of illegal ar rests was raised, are the majority of the suburban franchise poodle convictions.
 It was stated by a well known lawyer today that the statute of limitation Tn these cases expired last November and that f. the present charges against the accused men should be found defective 1t would be impossible to bring new in- dictlnents against them.
 All of the cases are before the Supreme Court on appeals and the records show that each case was tried on information furnished by the Circuit Attorney on his official oath. Among them was the case of Charles F. Kelly, former Speaker of the House of Delegates, convicted, of per- jury in connection with the suburban franchise poodle deal, sentenced to two years in the penitentiary. 2 Mfr. Folk notified Judge McDonald, of the Criminal Division of the Circuit Court and proceedings were stopped in all cases affected. s,
 Nine cases were wiped off the docket and the witnesses sent to the grand jury room. there to give information upon which to base indictments to take the place of the invalid informations.
 The case against E.. J. Arnold, charged with grand larceny, was one of those af- fected.
 The decision is that reversing the case of the State vs. William Bonner, which holds that information issued by the Cir- cult Atorney's Office, must be sworn to by prosecuting witnesses in the case and that circuit attorneys or prosecuting at torneys could swear to information only from personal knowledge of the facts.
 For two years under former decision of the Supreme Court and under the con stitutional amendment of 1900 and the act of 1901. prosecuting attorneys and circuit attorneys have been giving information under their ofheial oaths.. In St. Louis alone 1t is stated fully 2.OOO cases have been tried on such information and con viction resulted.
