pany, to enjoin the contract awarded
by the former to the latter defendant
for the construction of Brewers wharf

decision yesterday, in which he finds
that the contract was illegal. Bids had
been improperly called for and the
specifications were so indefinite that it
could not fairly be ascertained who was
the lowest bidder. The right of Lucas,
as citizen and taxpayer, TO sue is up
held. Kinney, Mechanism & Cooper

LII LOCK
ARRAIGhEO
A Dramatic Conclusion
to Criminal Term
Business.

Lui Lock was arraigned under indict-
ment for murder in the first degree, as
the last item of criminal business of
the April term of the First Circuit
Court, before Judge De Bolt yesterday
morning. He was charged with muir
dering L. T. Chin on Wednesday. June
%, 1904, by infiicting two mortal wounds
upon him with bullets fired from a pis-
toll
While Interpreter Ii Cheung was
orally translating the contents of the
indictment to him, Lui Lock seemed to
pose as an entertained listener 10 a
story that had no unpleasant interest
for him. With arms folded like a sena-
tor in the forum, his left hand grasping
the copy of the indictment with which
he had been served, the prisoner lean
ed his head toward the interpreter as if
to catch every word. There was not a
winking of the eyelids. while the eyes
glanced alternately upward into space
and downward upon the original copy
of the Indictment in Lii Cheung's hands.
An unknowing spectator might easily
take it that the two men were an attor-
ney and his client, the former reading
a contract of some kind which he had
drawn up for the latter's approval. A
more perfect exhibition of bravado in
the demeanor of one charged with a
crime involving the death penalty has
not for long been seen in a Hawaiian
court. The effect was heightened by
shrewd and sinister features the accus-
ed possesses.
Judge De Bolt, through the inter
prefer, told Lui Lock that he was not
required at that time to say anything.
1t was the last day of the term, the ac-
cused was Informed, so that he could
have no trial until September. In the
meantime he might wish to consult his
friends and counsel, which brought up
the matter of bonds. The court would
not decide at that time that the case
was not bailable, as the statute was rot
absolutely certain on that point. It's
words We're:
'All persons charged with criminal
sureties, unless for capital offenses
where the proof is evident or the pre-
sumption great
Even in a murder case, Judge De
Bolt said, there might be BAH under
certain circumstances.
Then he does not want to plead?'
Deputy Attorney General Fleming in
quiringly remarked.
The Court-'It would be no use, be-
cause the law requires forty-eight hours
after conviction before sentence, and
the present term will not last so long
as that
All cases on the calendar undisposed
of We're then continued till next term
and the court adjourned without day.
SIXTY-FOUR INDICTMENTS.
The grand jury presented its final re-
port for the term before Judge De Bolt
at 10 O'Clock yesterday morning. 1t
gave list of sixty-four indictments
found during the term, together with
a list of twenty-five cases investigated |
in which no bills were found.

The agitation started more than a
year ago to bring about the enlarge
ment of Turkey Creek canal at the ex-
pense of the city seems to have reciv-
ed it's quietus, for the time being,
from the special committee of Council
appointed to investigate the matter.
This committee made q thorough in
spection Of the canal, and after giving
the matter careful consideration, came
to the decision that all that was nee
essary to be done and all that was
wise or Practicable was that the pres
ent canal be cleaned out. This was
ordersd done and the work is now
nearing completion. The committee
found that it would be possible to
obtain fall of only one inch to the
hundred yards and that to widen the
canal as proposed would not improve
conditions at all, but would probably
have the contrary effect in 30 far as
the health of the city is concerned.
The committee is of the opinion that
If it becomes necessary Ito increase
the drainage capacity Of the canal it
wall be better to cut. new canal
across the Southern part of the city
from the old canal and divert the
drainage from the Dingle Mill route
into the bitches now leading to
Green Swamp, the fall being far
greater-sometbing like twenty-five
feet-to Green Swamp than to Din
gle's Mill.

FIRE At TIE COFFIN FACTORY.
Fire Department Prevents a Serious
Conflagration This Morning.

Policeman Pierson discovered that
the boiler shed of the Sumter Lumber
Co. mill was on fire Monday morning
at l O'Clock and gave the alarm at
once There was a few minutes delay
in getting the alarm sent to the reel
houses by telephone and it was fully
ten minutes from the time the fire was
discovered to the arrival of the hose
wagons. But the firemen went to
work with a will when they arrived,
and the FIRE was quickly extinguished.
The boiler shed was burned, but the
good work of the firemen was in pre-.
venting the spread of the fire to the
lumber piles, dry kilns and other
buildings. The mill is situated on the
lot of the Witherspoon coffin factory
and quite near to several of the large
buildings of this concern. The loss is
estimated to be not more than SIS,
unless the boilers were damaged by
the heat, and this cannot be determin
ed until they have been inspected by
an expert. The boilers are valued at
81, 500 and the loss on them may be
quite large.

Myrtle Beach.

The attention of those who are cast
ing about for pleasant and healtful
place to spend their summer vacation
is invited to the advertisement of the
Myrtle Beach Hotel. This new but
already popular resort is situated on
one of the finest beaches on the At
lantic coast, and that it has remained
so long unknown to fame has been
due to the absence of railway facilities
until the past year or two. The hotel
is delightfully."- situated and the salt
water breezes that blow day and night
have an unobstructed sweep from the
broad Atlantic which rolls up on the
beach.
