MARsTON TO HILO.

The schooner w H. Marston sailed
from San Francisco this morning for
Hilo. This will be the first time that
the Marston had been on the San Fran
cisco-Hilo run. The reason she is to go
on that run instead of the old run to
Honolulu is because c. Brewer & Com
pany have taken the agency of the Pc
peekeo Plantation and wish to have the
sugar from that plantation handled by
the Marston. The capacity of the Mars
ton is about 1900 tons. If she can do
the work she will handle all of the Pc
peekeo sugar this season. She is not
to load at Pepeekeo but will go to Hilo
to receive the sugar.

OAHU PLANTATIONS
GRINDING SUGAR
ALL BUT EVA HAVE STARTED.
FIRST SUGAR OF SEASON RE-
CEIVED AT WAREHOUSE.

The first sugar of the season for
Oahu that the Oahu Railway ware
houses will handle was received yes
terday. 1t consisted of six carloads
from Waialua Two carloads from
Kahuku are expected this afternoon
and some more from Oahu may arrive
before the end of the week.
Practically every plantation on this
island, with the exception of Eva, has
started grinding for the new season.
There will have to be some tall hustling
on the part of the plantations to get
enough sugar on hand to supply the
demands that will soon be made. The
S. S. Arizonan of the American Ha-
waiian line will arrive here about jan
uary to load about 5000 tons of SUI
gar for Delaware Breakwater and
about January 10, the S. s. Texan an
other of the largest steamers of the
company, will arrive from Manila to
load sugar for Delaware Breakwater.
The ship Erskine NJ Phelps will also
chew up sugar pretty fast until she
gets about 5000 tons for the Break
water.

The Territorial Grand Jury has been

which was tried before Judge Gear at
the late September term, which was
known as the 'swaialua riot case" and

indictments be found.
In the case in question, it will be re-

days proceedings were allowed to go on

that it had not been established that
the true names were ito the grand jur-
ors unknown" as was charged in the
indictment against them. 1t would now
appear if evidence given before the
Grand Jury is correct, that the four ac-
cused Cinnamon were not only innocent
of the rioting with which they were
charged, but were made the scape-goats
of a notorious gang of gamblers and
swindlers.
The charge is made that for months
past Leong Chez, assisted by Ting Mu,
Chong All and Wong Chuck Lung, has
been running a gambling joint at Wal
alua in so open a manner that the dep
uty sheriff and the police of the district
could not fail to be familiar with it. On
the night of July % last Foo Chong

FOR INDEFINITE TIME-NO
WORK IN IMMEDIATE PROSPECT

The status of the L. S. S. Iroquois
will be unchanged by the presence of
the U. S. S. Petrol i'm this port The
Petrol is not here to relieve the Iro-
quois but has been ordered to the port
of Honolulu to be attached to the naval
station, Indefinitely.
1t is not unlikely that the advent OF
the Petrol will mark the inauguration
of policy of the department to keep
gunboat or small cruiser constantly
on duty at this place. 1t is the GUS
tom TO attach a'tvessel to all naval
stations and as the Petrol can be spared
for such work here she was sent to
Honolulu. Work which the IrOquols
could not do would be, performed by
the Petrol.
There appears to be no work in inn
mediate prospect for the Petrol but
should any emergency arise, she would
be here. 1t is thought that she will
remain some months In Honolulu on
regular duty.

ELECTION LAWS
AND KUPIHEA
THE TWO INDICTMENTS THE
GRAND JURY FOUND AGAINST
BIG JIM"

There was no mistaking Big Jim Kus
pihea for anything but one of the Red
Shirt Brigade of the Seventh Precinct
when he appeared in court before Judge
Robinson this morning to answer to the
two indictments thoughtfully prepared
for him by the Grand Jury. He was a
little. late when his name was called
but his counsel, Aex-High Sheriff A. NJ.
Brown, craved Indulgence. Kupihea
finally appeared, red shirt, red tie and
all, so that there could be no doubt
that he was really the Kupihea named
in the indictments.
The first charge against him was one
of using intimidation to induce one W.
NJ. Naluai to vote the Republican ticket
under pain of losing his employment.
The second indictment charged Kupi-
hea with an infraction of the election
law by going to the polls to vote as
one of an organization.
Brown asked until Monday to plead
and as there was no objection on the
part of Deputy Attorney General Pet
ers to this, it was so ordered. The
original bail of $500 in each case was
allowed to stand

Judge Whitney handed down a writ
ten decision this morning in the police
court i'm the case against r. H. Lewis
the livery man who was charged with
operating a hack without license. The
decision is quite interesting from the
fact that it deals with a dispute that
has existed between the hack drivers
and livery stable men for some time
past. The defendant was acquitted.
The decision is in part as follows:
Defendant was arrested under a
charge of violating Section 7g5 p. l..
1897, and is accused of allowing an un-
licensed vehicle owned by him to be
used for the conveyance of passengers
for hire go
The first question to be considered
is this: Must livery stableman law
fully licensed to cary on such business
procure for each vehicle in his stable
license?' This would seem neces-
sarily to follow from the contention of
the prosecution. Though it is true
that there are vehicles in every livery
stable which are not the property of
the owner of the stable and not there
for hire, it is likewise indisputable that
a great majority of the vehicles to be
found in every livery stable are there
for the purpose of hiring the same to
others for pleasure or profit. This is
by far the larger part of the business
of every stable. The legislature must
be deemed, as reasonable men, to have
taken such a piece of common knowl-
edge into consideration when Section
756 was passed and approved. If then,
it was the purpose of that Legislature
to lay an additional tax upon this
business, it is beyond the realm of
probability that no mention would have
been made of such intention i'm the law
There can be no difference as mat
ter of law whether those vehicles are
hired for the day, a part of day, or
single trip; whether they are hired
by one person or a dozen; at so much
a day, hour or trip. or whether the

JURY CAVE A
QUICK VERDICT
FIVE MINUTES DELIBERATION
PUTED LAND.

1t took a jury in Judge De Bolts
court just five minutes this afternoon
to sum up the evidence which has been
given i'm five days i'm the case of Ching
Man Sing against Mary A. Richards
and others, and return a verdict for
the defendant. The suit was over the
title to a piece of land on the mauka
side of Vineyard street near Liliha
street, about an acre and quarter in
extent and worth with improvements
approximately $S,500.
Ching Man Sin claimed ownership as
the heir at law of a half Chinese boy
named Kamaaho who was taken to
China in 1875 and there died. The de-
fence based it's claim by possession
since 1882 and through an heir of the
original patentee, a claim which the
jury thought was established
