PROTECTION
Judge Estee Gives
Sailor Langaas
Damages.

Sigurd Langaas has been awarded
damages of $4,000 against the barkentiDe
James Tuft by decision of judge Eetee
in the United States District Court. The
libellant sued in admiralty for $4,000
damages on account Of injuries sus-
tained by him on board the vessel
named, while performing his duty as q
seaman upon the voyage from New
castle, N. S. W., to Honolulu, which
injuries he claimed were DIE to the
negligence of August Friedberg. master
OF the vessel.
The court does not find nag,.s,rrs as
alleged in the accident itsel. but finds
gross negligence of the captain in :al.,
ing to put into the nearest port at the
time of the injury, or as soon tli.re-
after as it was possible to do so. 10 get
proper surgical aid for this man
The court holds that 1t was the duty
of the captain to put into Pa3aetc Ia
hiti, where there was reasonable GER
tainty of obtaining skilled treatment
for Langaas.
In declaring the vessels liability the
court says:
1.-THE maritime law is sensitive ss
to the rights of seamen and rigorous in
providing for their protection When
injured in the service OF the shin or
disabled by illness. they are entitled
to be cared for and cured If possible at
the expense of the vessel; and where
that duty is not performed and the sea-
man suffers from the neglect, the 6hie
Is liable in damages for the suffering
and pain caused by such failure"

flee that Highton was to be Summers
attorney as well as theirs (the Ellises) /;
his fee for all parties was to be $500;
it is not fact that advanced $125 to
my uncle to make up the fee; Mr..
Highton handed me a receipt for $125,
which passed over to uncle (Sumner) /;
Humphreys Thompson & Watson
We're attorneys for me and my BROTH
ers; they were not our attorneys in the
railway suit; at the meeting in the
Boston building Humphreys came in
with my brother William; that very
night the guardianship suit was
dropped; at the meeting Humphreys
came out with us and told us not to
let that trust deed of Cathcart go
mans plan of settlement, that more
could be got out of the land option.
Asked what the trust deed had to
do with the railway suit, witness said
Highton advised them that the Catho-
lie church and themselves were the on
ly beneficiaries under the trust deed to
the Bishop.
Mr. Andrews-What did Humphreys

the railway. or both together.
Witness-It was the settlement. No
retainer was paid to Humphreys, nor
to Humphreys. Thompson & Watson;
when Sumner offered to give JUS &c.

THE BLACKMAILING TALK.
Mr.. Andrews, showing witness the
letter of herself and brothers acknow-
lodging receipt of the letter from High
ton, asked IL there was anything in
their letter showing protection to High
ton from the matchmaking scheme of
Mrs. Davis. To the objections Of re-
sronGerts he argued that witross hal
testified that Highton desired this let
ter for his protection. While the court
was consulting, the question was with
drawn.
Witness confirmed her previous testi-
mony that Highton said he would not
darken the door of George A. Davis. as
he was a blackmailer; they agreed to
the deed Of sale to the railway rather
than have their uncle declared insane.
Under objections by Mr. Thompson.
the court disallowed a question as to
payment to witness of her $4,000, as
not based on the direct testimony.
Mr.. Andrews moved to have witness
produce in court the leases from which
she derived an income of 5000 or $500

dence was corroboration OF their wit
ness and not impeachment. The Attor-
ney General said II was to impeach.

which is the true spirit. The badge

A New Trial Of Kauai
Boundary Case
Ordered.

Justice Perry is author of a unan-
imous opinion of the Supreme Court
which sustains exceptions from the Ka-
uai Circuit Court and orders new trial

son. THE sole question is one of
boundaries" the court says-"whether
or not a certain strip of land on the
is part of the Iii of Kuiloa." The
law of the case is thus laid down:
When the boundaries of an iii, deter
mined by a Commissioner of Bounda-
ries, are set forth by the Commissioner
in general description and also in a
particular description made and enter
ed in the record Immediately there
after, the particular must prevail over
the general in case of a conflict.
A call in a general description read
ing, returning on the eastern bank of
the river in all it's windings and turn
ings to place of commencement" does
not necessarily place the line at the
waters edge but is capable of being
understood as meaning that the line is
on the bank at a reasonable distance
from the water, and will be so con-
strued where from the remainder of
such description and from the particu-
lar description made in pursuance of
the general and from map accom-
panying the particular and made part
thereof the intent is apparent that the
line should so run on the bank follow
ing bearings and distances given.
1t was undisputed in the case that
the Kapiolani Estate is the owner of
the Iii of Kuiloa, that the McBryde
Estate holds a lease of 1t for fifteen
years from April /, 1901, that Gay &
Robinson have no interest in the iii and
that they are in possession of the Ahu-
puaa of Hanapepe under a lease for
thirty years made in 1887 by the Com
missioners of Crown Lands.

If Humphreys and Thompson after
these statements retired from the case,
as the records were the best evidence
as to that. Mr.. Andrews said the OBJ
ject was to fix the time, but on the
admission of respondents that they did
not retire withdrew the question.
