At card party at Charles Lambs
Hazlltt and Lambs brother got into a
discussion as to whether Holbein's S coll

AT length they became SO excited that
they upset the table and seized each
other by the throat. In the struggle
Hazlitt got a black eye, but when the
combatants were parted Hazlitt turned
to Talfourd, who was offering his aid.

WALKED TOGETHER.

While the trial of Ropert VS.. Sumner
was going on, witness said he noticed
Davis and Thompson always walking
away together. When Davis told him
the best thing to do was to compromise,
he knew what the intimacy of the two

to tell witness about the proposal.
Davis proposed a compromise for $15,-

man would never consent Then
Thompson got on his high horse and
said: Now look here, when I was on
Summers side we were good to you and
your mother I picked up my hat and
left"
Witness told about the meeting in
Magoon's office. when Thompson insist
ed on his going outside. On coming
back he noticed a great silence and
Magoon looking pale with his head
hanging down. Asked what was the
matter and Thompson urged Magoon
to tell him.
TALKED IN THOUSANDS.
Magoon told him the other side want
ed another thousand, and he went out
to his uncle and told him they were
just skinning him, they were not salts
fed with hundreds but were talking
thousands; advised his uncle he had
better go home.

DEFENSE IS
NOW BEGUN
Prosecution Rests
In Disbarrnent
Trial.
Sumner and Davis Both
Tell Of Lawyers
Doings.
Humphreys and Thompson Take
Divergent Courses in Con-
Quoting Their Cases.

Shortly before adjournment of the
Attorney-General Andrews announced
that the prosecution rested in the dis
barment proceedings against A. S,
Humphreys and Frank E. Thompson.
r. w. Cathcart was the first witness
called by Mr.. Humphreys Before his
examination began, Mr.. Andrews de-
sired an understanding as to the or
der of proceeding. Were both respond
ents to conduct Independent examina-
tions, and Mr.. Cathcart their counsel
as well.
Mr.. Humphreys proposed that when
he rested with the witness Mr.. Thomp-
son should ask such questions as he de-
sired. He stated that he had not in
terfered with the prosecution in any
way and as both Mr.. Thompson and
himself were undergoing trial. one
should not be made responsible for
what the other did.
Mr.. Thompson emphatically claimed
the right to examine and crosS-examine
every witness as fully and completely
as Judge Humphreys. The prosecution
might have moved for separate trials
if it chose.
Chief Justice Frear stated that the
court would adopt Judge Humphreys
views of procedure.
Mr.. Cathcart said he was treasurer
of Wilder & Co. He had been on in
innate relations of friendship with Mr..
Sumner for many years. Witness was
testifying about the meeting in the
Boston building just before the court
rose for the day. II
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1903-07-02
WILLIE DAVIS.

r. w. Davis, as his name was called,
defined his relationship with Sumner
as nephew, his mother being Summers
only sister. He described the meeting
at the Office of G.. A. Davis, when he
and his mother signed the release.
Thompson arrived with papers and
handed them over to Attorney Davis,
and when the latter asked him if the
ElIises had signed a release Thompson
said yes. Thompson said, you can't
get the money unless you sign the re-
lease" that we could not get the money
until we signed a quit claim.
The court sustained an objection to
the question if Thompson said whom
he represented, as being a leading one.
Witness did not remember anything
else; read the release to his mother
and both signed it.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1903-07-02
MRS. DAVIS FIRST.

Mrs. Maria S. Davis, sister of Sum-
examination was a difference between
Humphreys and Thompson over objec-
tions, the former intimating that he
would not block leading questions as
rule, while the latter declared for
strict construction of the rules of evil
dence. The chief point brought out
from Mrs. Davis was a statement that
at the settlement meeting Thompson
answered a question by saying the
Ellises had signed a release.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1903-07-02

ton, said the prosecution claimed that
this was Summers money, while the re-
spondents in their answer denied that
it was Summers money and that there
was a settlement
Mr.. Cathcart supposed that the in
tention Of introducing the letter was 70
bind Thompson, but there was evidence
that Highton wrote the letter. No at
tempt had been made to show that
Thompson wrote it,
The Attorney General replied that the
receipts were evidence that Thompson
was aware of the contents OF the let

CASE NEVER CLOSED.

There was no closing of the guardian
ship suit ever reached, the witness said.
A cessation occurred owing to the ILL
ness of Mrs. Davis and then he learned
that a settlement had been made.
Geo. A. Davis met him at the corner of
Fort and Merchant streets, Thompson
coming along at the same time, and
Davis asked him to sign a decree ad-
judging Sumner not insane. This he
was quite ready to do if all parties were
represented, and being a chambers
matter he repaired with the attorneys
to Geo. Davis's office in the Judd build
ing. He signed the decree there with
the understanding that Thompson rep
resented Sumner in the absence of
HightOn.

MORNING SESSION.

The main feature of the morning ses-
sion was the examination of John K.
Sumner, whose fortune was the bone of
contention out of which all this trou-
BILE arose.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1903-07-02
TO BREAK HIM UP.

AttOrney-General Andrews asked
what was the object Of that line of
cross-examination.
Mr.. Thompson answered, Interest,"
motive, credibility."
Witness said Magoon seemed to have.
command of the insanity case the aft
ernoon after his appearance with Da-
Wis.

Indignantly answering a question He
refused to answer if he was not some
times called Wally until the court Or
dered him to answer the question.
When witness was cross-examined on
the record of his testimony before
Judge De Bolt, he answered most ques-
tions by saying he could not recollect
exactly. He caused amusement by re-
Iating that Sumner said the previous
evening that he would not tell every
thing he knew when Humphreys and,
Thompson questioned ~hin in courT-

tanned. He did not remember what

whether the remainder after Summer D
death was to himself

JUDGE DE BOLT.

Judge De Bolt being called in the aft
ernoon, Humphreys and Thompson OBJ
jected to receiving the evidence of a
judge of a. court of record and were
given time to go out to the library for
authorities. Mr.. Thompson made the
argument, Mr.. Andrews replying.
The court allowed the examination of
Judge De Bolt.
Witness described the positions of
counsel in his courtroom. Highton ap-
peared to be leading counsel for Sum-
ner but often consulted Thompson.
When Geo. A Davis asked Wyllie
Davis if he considered Sumner was in
fit condition to conduct business and
Highton objected, saying it would be
proper to ask the witness Davis if he
thought Sumner insane, Thompson's
most conspicuous act was the reading
of an authority in support of the OBJ
lection and handing the book up TO
the bench
Asked if Thompson appeared person
ally or for the firm, witness said that.
seeing Davis and Magoon on one side
and Highton and Thompson on the
other, he was curious to ascertain the
exact positions of counsel and picked
up the pleadings, where he found Sum-
ner represented by Humphreys, Thomp-
zor, e Watson
