Judge Parker won't talk. The newspaper
correspondents have tried to induce him
to go on record as to current issues and
define his own position on public affairs.
The newspaper men want to know what
he looks like as a candidate. But he re-
fuses to be interviewed or to make any au-
thorized statement, because he says 1t is
inconsistent with his occupancy Of a place
on the bench. Judge Parker certainly
holds the dignity of the court in very high
esteem; but, also. Judge Parker is prob
ably pretty shrewd politician. He. may
realize that so long as he has no record
and makes no expression Of sentiment on
public questions he cannot be attacked.
His silence also enables his friends to
make all sorts Of claims for him to all sorts
Of people, while definite statements from
him might interfere somewhat with his
so-called availability.

: Pettigrew''s Symptoms.

The South Dakota democratic con-
vention refused to pass resolutions
binding it's delegates in the conven-
ton at st. Louis to abide by the choice
Of that convention for president. The i
resolution was offered by an anti
Hearst member. The Hearst men had
swept everything before them in the
convention, choosing their own men
for delegates to the national conven-
ton and instructing them for Hearst.
All this was done under the guidance
of r. F. Pettigrew, who figures just
now as a democrat. .,..., -. .<.r,s
Pettigrew's record is evidently not
entirely forgotten in South Dakota;
at least there Is one incident in that
record which fully justifies the resolu-
ton pledging the delegates of the state
to support the nominee Of the national
convention. Pettigrew is the leader
of the state delegation, and Pettigrew
had an attack of INSTRUMENTATION in
st. Louis in 1896 which might repeat
itself when he returns to that city in
July as q, member Of the democratic
/
the nomination of William Mckinley
and the adoption OF the sound-money
platform. Alarming symptoms Of q
disposition to yield to this inclination
to bolt again have already develo ped
in Mr.. Pettigrew's case, for he told
the. South Dakota convention that he
would not support a republican If one
was nominated in st. Louis. Mr.. Pet
tigrew undoubtedly reserves the right
to. place Mr.. Cleveland, or, possibly,
Judge Parker, or, in fact, any one, Of
whom he does not approve, in that
category. The action of the South
Dakota convention, dominated by
Hearst influences, is suggestive of the
/ general disposition of the Hearst
crowd. That they will stand by the
nomination Of such a man as Cleve-
land or Parker does not appear to be
| by any means certain.

would like to know that in the next move
they are doing the very best thing and
something that will not have to he done

against the commission is that it means

OF the problem the largest knowledge and

talesmen for good-Judge De Bolt re-
marked upon the strain under which
they had been, thanking them for their
attention to the case and stating that
he was satisfied their verdict was an
impartial one.
After the proceedings noted in the
previous report Drs. Emersen, Wayson
and Hodgins gave expert evidence upon
hypothetical questions 1t was intend
ed to show that Mahelona could, not
have struggled with Man Chong in his
grasp and discharged his revolver four
or five times after receiving the wound
that caused his death. The implication
sought was either that Mahelona fired
at Man Chong before the latter shot
him or else, as Mr.. Ashford suggested
in his closing address. that Clark fired
the shot that hit Mahelona.
Mr.. Peters, Deputy Attorney General,
closing for the Territory, eloquently
repudiated the intimation of defendants
counsel that the prosecution wanted
to win All that the prosecution
wanted was justice. It desired that
when a policeman, bravely performing
his duty, was killed by a chicken thief
who went armed to his nefarious trade,
the guilty man should be punished. The
prosecution desired that Honolulu
should not be known abroad as a safe
place for murderers and cutthroats.
Judge De Bolts charge to the jury
was of very great length, comprising
requested instructions from both sides
so far as granted and instructions of
the courts own motion. Many pages of
instructions requested were discarded.
Mr.. Ashford noted exceptions to the
charge in general, practically every
thing that he had not himself request

! and had something to eat. when a boy
rushed in and told US the ship was
ready to go. We went back and waited
all afternoon. The firing stopped at u
o'clock, this time the Russians being
ready and gave the Japs all they want
ed.
The ship was not allowed to go that
night, but the captain said to come
back at o'clock next morning.
Before returning to the house we took
look around town. 1t was most
desoIate looking place, hardly any one
stirring, all business places closed, the
windows all smashed, cargoes scattered
everywhere and smashed where a big
shell had burst.
In a garden opposite Clarkson's Office
, there is big shell not yet burst ana of
course no one dares touch it.
We went into the port and a torpedo
boat came in with a lot of wounded
sailors, a great number on stretchers
some in blankets and others with their
heads all done up. It was an awful
sight and shall not soon forget it.
We stayed at a friends house for the
night, as it was much more protected
than ours, and If they started fighting
again we would be safer.
The street lights were turned off and
the order was given for the house lights
to be turned as low as possible, so as
not to light the sky or show a reflection.
We enjoyed the experience and excite
ment very much, but now that it is
over, / don't want any more.
The next morning the weather was
fearful very cold. with wind, dust and
hail. We never had such a day.
The following day Mr.. Adams, pas
senger, who was on his way to Manila
for a holiday, rushed in and said the
boat was leaving at 3 o'clock, but no
carriage was there so we started on
foot, running all the way Ca mile and a
half, and we barely caught the boat,
Arthur having just time to push us on
and say goodbye, when we were off,
feeling that at last we were safe.
We were just going out of the harbor,
when bang went three shots into the
bow of our boat. The captain stopped

and Company are agents for these
ships, and when the permit was given
for the Fu-Ping to leave, Clarkson and
CO. should inform the guardship, which
they neglected to do with the above
consequence.
The captain naturally got very angry,
not knowing the reason. and as all
Englishmen who have so much TO say
when they know nothing, started to
blackguard the Russians.

before they began their deliberations.
Mr.. Ashford had no objection to the
jury's being conducted out, for lunch.
Juror Falk suggested that lunch be sent
to them in the jury room. but Judge
De Bolt stated that the restaurateur
applied to by telephone had refused to
send lunch up.
Bailiffs Hopkins, Quinn and Sea were
detailed to attend. the jury to refresh
ments, the court denying the request of
a juror to be allowed off to pay his men
their weeks wages. The jury was al
lowed, on its return, to sit in the court

was ready only came at a few minutes

answers were allowed to be sent out
from Port Arthur, so could not send the
message until we reached here. We ar
rived here on Saturday afternoon at
o'clock.
A week ago Sunday the Japs' sent
transports to take away all Japanese
but we never believed trouble was so
near nor did the Russian officers, al
though we have been waiting and ex-
pecting war to be declared at any time
On Monday forenoon Arthur telephon-
ed us to pack up at once and be ready
to leave that night, so we hurried
around packing all afternoon and even
ing.
Luckily the ship couldn't go that
night and at 11:30 p. m. we heard a lot
of cannon firing, but supposed it to be
the Russians trying their forts for the
last time, and we finished packing and
got to bed at a. m.
At 10 a. m. Tuesday we all started for
the ship Gu Ping, where we met peo-
pie, who told US the Japs had really
been there the night before.

We went to our steamer which ex-

Viceroy gave orders that the boat could
not leave the harbor that morning
At 1870 the Japs came back and the
fight began fast and furious-shells
falling on all sides. so we decided the
best place for us was our own house, as
the steamer was crowded, and if a shell
struck her she would probably sink. We
were perfectly calm and collected, our

COPTIC ARRIVES;
HEARS BAD NEWS

On the arrival of the Coptic yester-
day morning at 1890 the officers heard
of the death of their captain, ARM
strong, whom they had left sick in
Hongkong. Capt. Armstrong had been
feeling poorly for the last two trips
and as he worse while at Hongkong,
he decided to stay behind. The Coptic
brought a large amount of freight for
Honolulu, amounting to 1882 tons.
Most of the freight was Japanese
foodstuffs, rice perhaps being the larg-
est single item. About 100 tons of bags
also came. Among the passengers for
this port was W. M. Graham, who re-
turned from business trip in the
Orient. w. C. Weldon also returned.
He has secured concessions in China.
The Coptic is at the Railroad wharf
and sails for San Francisco at this
