week for their support. Out of this,
they had in the past three years saved
a little over seventeen dollars, nickel
by one piece of self sacrifice, dime by
another.
One day Schaffer was in their yard
and around their house, and a little
while afterwards they discovered that
this seventeen dollars, their hard saw
ings of three years was gone. While
they could not prove that Schaffer had
stolen the money, they were morally
certain that he had. A little while
after that Schaffer came into their
yard again, offering to give them some
books and magazines. They refused
to take them and ordered him off their
premises. Schaffer went but left some
of the books and magazines. In some
of these were written Chief Justice
Frear's name. The two old Germans S
suspected something was wrong and
got word to the chief justice about it.

WORK
IN THE EAST
is AT WORK GETTING A FoUNDA-
TION OF LEGAL OPINIONS FROM
WHICH TO FLOAT THE BONDS.

Secretary Carter's work in the East
is now that of getting legal opinions
on the validity of the act of the Ha-
waiian legislature under which 1t is
proposed to issue bonds. The approval
of the issue by President Roosevelt
disposes of one question of primary i'm
portance and as it followed soon after
the arrival of Carter east 1t Is thought
by some that he was able to assist the
executive in arriving at favorable
decision.
The next business of the secretary
is to get an opinion of the attorney
general at Washington to the effect
that the act is legal, also an opinion
to the same effect from some one of
the leading corporation lawyers of the
east. These two opinions will be of
service in getting the favorable con-
sideration of the bonds by bankers.
The name of Judge Dill of New York
has been mentioned as a good author
ity from whom to get the desired
opinion, but it is thought that his SER
vices will come high. Such an opinion
however, would be of great weight.
With these questions disposed of the
next task will be that of interesting
financial men in the issue. The small
rate of interest and possibly very short
term of the loan are believed to be OBJ
stacels, but those who are familiar
with the proposition think that Carter
is likely to be heard from very soon, to
the effect that he has been abb to
place some or all of the bonds.

ROBBED OF
HARD SAVINGS
PATHETIC STORY BROUGHT TO
LIGHT BY THE ARREST OF MAN
WHO STOLE FREAR'S BASKET.

A Schaffer was sentenced to three
months imprisonment at hard labor,
this morning for stealing a telescope
bag belonging to Chief Justice Frear,
from the Oahu Railway station about
month ago. The bag contained a
pair of very fine field glasses, a pair
of hunting boots, large amount of
clothing, pictures of the baby, books
and magazines. 1t was just such
booty as people on a summer outing
would have. Schaffer pleaded guilty.
He told Judge Lindsay that he took
1t while he was drunk.
The discovery of the thief and his
capture brought out quite a pathetic
tale. Schaffer lives up in Nuuanu val
ley above Wyllie street and toward
the Eva side of the valley. Not far
from him live two old Germans, one Of
them about ninety years of age, and
the other about eighty. They are
pensioners of German Benevolent So

POLICE AUTHORITY
BADLY TIED UF
JUDGE GEAR, WITH ROBINSON CONCURRING, RENDERS
A DECISION THAT NO PERSON CAN BE PUNISHED
EVEN FOR MINOR OFFENSES, WITHOUT AN INDICT-
MENT BY A GRAND JURY.

The "jail delivery decision was Civ
en- by, Judge Gear this morning in the
case of the Territory VS.. Wa Sin. The
defendant was discharged and the
court, in a very lengthy opinion which
was full of severe criticism will i'm the
opinion of many lawyers force an ex-
ira session of the Legislature, for if
Judge Gears opinion, in which Judge
Robinson concurs, is correct, the hands
of the police are legally tied up by a
necessity of recourse to a grand jury
for power to punish any offense, from
simple drunkness up.
The main contention considered by
the court in the Wa Sin case was that
his alleged offence of selling opium
without a license was an infamous
crime under Hawaiian law, making him
subject to an infamous punishment,
and that he could not be placed on
trial for an infamous crime, under the
constitution of the United States, with
out a grand jury indictment, at least
in a Territory. In deciding that the
punishment of Imprisonment at hard
labor in Oahu Jail was an infamous
punishment, even If only for day, the
judge took occasion to very severely
criticize the laws under which the pris-

THE BRIDEGROOM
SUES f j. CHURCH
JAMES w. w. BREWSTER BEGINS
SUIT FOR $1,000 DAMAGES GROW
ING OUT OF A BARGAIN.

James w. w. Brewster who left last
week with his bride on the steamer
Gaelic for Hong Kong has brought
suit against F. ]. Church for $4,000
damages for trespass on the case. The
suit grows out of a transaction by
which 1t is alleged Brewster paid ST.
900 to Church. A. S. Humphreys and
Crook represent the absent petitioner.
Brewster alleges that he was to pur-
chase an interest in the Honolulu
Photo Supply Co., and paid $1,000 to
Church on account, being given time
In which to pay a balance of $4,000.
There was hitch and the bargain
didn't go through, and Brewster says
that Church retained the thousand dol
lars, holding that 1t was forfeited by
Brewster's failure to pay the balance
of the money according to programme.

ture of the case the court said:
1T is not, as a general rule, whether
the court in it's discretion awards n
punishment that is infamous or other
wise, but whether the statute author
ICES the inhiction of such infamous
punishment, that is the criterion by
which we must determine whether the
offence charged against the petitioners
constitutes an infamous crime.

one, who, in due course of law, shall
have been convicted of any criminal
offence punishable by imprisonment.
whether with or without hard labor, for
a term exceeding one year, whether
with or without fine shall not vote or
hold office unless pardoned and restored
to his civil rights. This of itself makes
an offence an Infamous one, If it may
be punishable by imprisonment for
more than one year, and as has been
seen, the defendant may be imprisoned
for more than one year.
