LAND NEAR PRISON
IS VALUABLE

George r. Carter was yesterday ap-
pointed guardian of the estate of the
Maria O'Sullivan minors upon giving
bond in the sum of $500. Carter gave
some interesting testimony regarding
the value of lands in the vicinity of
Oahu Prison, the estate having a very
small holding in that neighborhood. Il
know something of lands in the vicinity
of Oahu Prison, being a trustee of the
Dowsett Estate which has large hold
ings there. I should consider land in
that vicinity to be worth $4,000 an
acre. This land should bring an income
of from five to ten dollars per month.
The trend of business of the city is in
that direction now
Carter was appointed by Judge De
Bolt and the bond fixed at $500. In the
will left by Mrs. O'Sullivan A. Fernan-
DEE was designated as guardian but he
never qualified.

Writ of Error to United
States Supreme
Court.
Decision in The Highest Tribunal
viii Settle Seventy-Five
Similar Gases.

The fishing cases have been carried
to the United States Supreme Court.
A writ of error on appeal to Washing
ton has been signed by Justice Gal
braith in the case of Samuel NJ. Damon
VS.. Territory of Hawaii, and the papers
went forward on the last steamer. e
The petition for writ of error alleges
that the judgment of the Hawaiian
Supreme Court was against the petit
toner, and holding that he had not the
right to maintain fishing rights action
in certain waters appurtenant to the
ahupuaa of Moanalua, and this decis-
ion was by the highest court in the
Territory of Hawaii.
AS the constitutional question in
volved, paragraph 4 sets out That
there was drawn in question on the
hearing of said cause the construction
of a certain act of Congress, namely,
an act entitled An act to provide a
government for the Territory of Ha-
wall" approved April 80, A. D. 1900,
being chapter 339, volume 81, Statutes
at Large, page al; that said act was
construed by said Supreme Court of
the Territory of Hawaii in rendering
its said judgment in said cause; and
that the said judgment was against a
title, right, privilege, or immunity spe-
cially set out and claimed by your Pc
titioner under and by virtue Of said
statute"
1t is further alleged that the value of
said sea fishing was above the sum of
$1,000, and an affidavit to that effect is
attached by S. NJ. Damon. The affida-
Wit of Mr.. Damon alleges that the fish,
ing is Of the value of $4,000, and that
it was assessed for taxation purposes
in the sum of $4,000.
The writ of error assigns as a reason
for a reversal of the decision the ruling
that the non-suit was properly granted,
which is alleged to be erroneous. Tt
is further claimed that an error was
made in the holding that no vested
right in a sea fishery as against the
Territory of Hawaii could have been
acqired by virtue of the laws of the
Kingdom of Hawaii
About seventy-five similar cases de-
pend upon the decision of the United
States Supreme Court in the Moana-
lua case.

No Action Yesterday
In the Sumner
Case.

No stipulation was filed yesterday in
the Sumner case for a hearing next
week in the Supreme Court. 10th Mr..
Peters and Mr.. Humphreys were az the
court house during the day but for
some reason or other no stipulation
for hearing was agreed upon, though
both attorneys profess the utmost
anxiety for an early disposition of the
case. The Supreme Court will not of
course act until there has been a stipu-
lation making such a request, though
if the matter is pressed and presented
officially the request will probably be
granted.
Attorneys on either side of the case
called yesterday and informally sug-
gested that the case be taken up next
week." said Chief Justice Frear yester-
day. 1.-The Justices of the Supreme
Court are very busy just at present,
but are willing to hear the matter if
possible. So far the Sumner case has
not been brought up officially

DIXON, ILL.,, August 14.-Judge Peter 5.
| Grosscup of the United States circuit court,
| in an address here before the Lutheran as
| sembly, expressed his belief that in the
supervision Of monopolies by the govern
ment lies the only hope for the perpetuation
of the American nation, and sounded a
warning against the manipulation of securt-
ties in the interest of INSCRIPTIONS pro-
moters and spectators.
In the fact that within the last ten years
the deposits in savings banks have In
creased from 81 OO0, OO0, 600 to $4,000, OOO
sinister rather than a sanguine meaning
was traced, the Judge declaring that under
normal conditions this vast amount would
have been invested by the labOring classes,
but that it was lying idle because polite
swindlers and high-up rascals'' were able to
subvert the laws and give to stocks a value
they do not really possess.
I'VE can never go back to the days of our
boyhood,' said the speaker, but we can go
back to the days when the man with $10O
did not have to hoard it or intrust it to his
neighbor for safe keeping, but could put 1t
into industries, sure that 1t would return
with earnings.
What should be done? Change the laws
so that no set of men can organize a cor
poration except on a strict legal basis. Then
put it under such supervision as the ma
tional banks subject to- and l believe
that little by little. this immense boarding
in the savings banks of $4,000, 600. GOO will
be trickling into ownership again.
Il say nothing against the man who
makes his fortune honestly said Judge
Grosscup, but when l see the laws of my
country, introduced to enable men to con-
solidate money for the public good, turned
into the excuse for swindles that should
land the promoters in the penitentiary and
when see that to be the almost universal
history of corporations, every drop Of my
blood boils with hate and revenge"

WANT TO RETAIN GOV. TAFT.
Filipinos Do Not Like the Idea Of His
Leaving.

A dispatch from Manila yesterday says:
Governor General William H. Taft refused
to discuss his probable appointment as the
successor of Secretary Root when the lat
ter retires saying he had not yet been
offered the appointment. 1t is generally
believed here that Governor Taft does not
wish to leave the Philippines until numer-
Gus problems now pending are solved.
The situation is beginning to show the
results pledged for the upbuilding of the
Filipinos, whose devotion to and faith in
Governor Taft are remarkable. It is known
in any event, that Governor Taft does not
desire to leave before next February, but
1t is thought he is ready to obey President
Roosevelt's wishes, though his departure
would cause a sacrifice. In the meantime
it is stated that relatives and friends are
constantly urging him to return to the
mainland. Governor Taft Is now enjoying
excellent health, though after living nearly
four years in the tropics he is liable to a
recurrence of the dysentery.
Governor Taft is now personally formu-
lating measures of the utmost Importance

retirement of Governor Taft is agitatfng

whatever in the world to do that: that no
class of Americans had shown q higher
sense OF patriotism in the exercise of tho
ballot than he had and that now and at
all times. as long as there was any hope
for the right. whether in commerce, finance
or what not. the colored man was ready
to make the highest sacrifice for the honor
of his country. In every war that has
swept across the bosom of the republic the
colored soldier had CALAMITY fought.
In the seven years war for independence
he had followed the wavering fortunes OF
the father of his country until peace
and independence were proclaimed to man
kind. In every subsequent war he had
fought and died upon bloody battlefelds
that the state might live. and the bleaching
bones of colored soldiery lay in every COM
monwealth of the republic from Massachu-
sets to Texas.
Continuing. the speaker referred in de-
mandatory language to the general law
lessness now prevalent in the country and
warmly commended President Roosevelt's
letter on that subject. Mr.. Lyons also paid
his respects to John Temple Graves for the
latter's utterances in this regard.
He advised the colored people to separate
themselves completely-a thing which he
knew they were doing at present-from the
criminal class of the race. and to throw
their influence with the officers of the law
for the punishment of crime, whether the
criminal be white man or a black man.
These sentiments met with the hearty ap-
prevail of the vast audience, evidenced by
their loud applause and great cheering.

The colored citizens of Frederick and the

the fortieth anniversary Of the emancipa-

Frederick. The fair grounds were filed with
people in attendance and the affair was a
notable success.
Mr.. Whalen. w. Ashby Hawkins Of the
Baltimore bar and Judson w. Lyons, regis
ter of the United States treasury, were the
orators of the occasion. Mr.. Whalen is
farmer and made a most practical and use

and eloquent grafton. well sustained his
high reputation as speaker. Mr.. Lyons
was the last orator. He spoke at length in

stopped over at Colorado Springs for sew

by great crowd Of veterans and after
ward by the citizens. He was repeatedly

Some veterans cheered him as "Our next

question II he would consent to any move

THAT is a subject, of course, on which I

BOUGHT WITH TURKISH GOLD.
Charge Made Against American Press
by Macedonian Revolutionists.

dispatch from Sofia, Bulgaria, yester-
day says: The Macedonian leaders ex-
press themselves as greatly disappointed
with what they assert Is the distinctly hos
tile attitude of America toward their cause,
as manifested in the utterances of the
press. DR.. Christie Tartercheff, one of the
presidents Of the central internal Mace
DOMAIN committee, today told a represen-
tative of the Associated Press that his
party was convinced that American news
papers had been bought with Turkish gold
There seems to be no other explanation
of the tone of their articles" said he
They are not only unsympathetic toward
the movement, but decidedly inimical to It,
1t is impossible that such an attitude could
arise from ignorance of the true state Of
affairs in country 80 Intelligent as Amer
fca, and 1t is also difficult to believe that
the impression created by the Miss Stone
affair could have so prejudiced the Ameri-
can press.
I'm regard to the present situation, only
real, practical Intervention by the powers
can stop the fighting of the insurgents
Failing in such Intervention. the campaign
will be prosecuted to the bitter end. The
band now fighting in the villayet of Mon
astir consists of 1900 to 10000 men, mostly
young and enthusiastic and trained in the
use of arms. Their number could be quad
rupled were 1t not that the difficulty of
inadviSable.
THE Turkish troops are badly clothed
and demoralized They have repeatedly
refused to march against the insurgents,
who are we'll supplied with arms and am
munition, chiefly purchased from Turkish
soldiers who sold their guns for cash al
most within sight of the barracks of Mon
| astir By the plentiful employment of
! money insurgent bands have been enabled
to smuggle any quantity of guns across
the frontier and the highest Turkish Off
ciais have readily accepted insurgent gold -
DIR. Tartercheff concluded by saying that
the committee lived in daily hope that the
powers would recognize the justice of their
cause and intervene. He said the friends
of the cause looked chiefly toward England
as the pioneer land of liberty to assist
them.
Gen. Tzoncheff. president of the Mace
DOMAIN committee, and his friend, Col Jan
koff. both of whom are ex-oficers in the
Bulgarian army, have been arrested by the
Bulgarian police near the Macedonian from
tier under the suspicion that they were on
their way to join the revolutionists.
The report that the revolution had broken
| out in the villayet of Adrianople was pre-
| mature. Complete tranquility reigns every
where in Bulgaria.
