'HENDRY HAS BROUGHT
HIS PRISONER HOME

Eugene r Hendry, United States
Marshal, returned from Japan in the
steamer Siberia, true to his cabled
promise to District Attorney Breckons
He brought with him in custody Sabu-
70 Adachi, who was arrested in Yoko-
hama under extradition proceedings.
Adachi is charged with perjury in con-
nection with the crusade of the Fed
eraI authorities here, against japanese
immortality. Marshal Hendry was aid
ed in looking after the prisoner on the
voyage by Sergeant Kanagawa-ken Of
the Yokohama harbor police.
When told of the half-amused con-
Germ with which his friends here dis
cussed the possibility of the capture by
the Russians of the steamer America
Maru. in which he went TO Japan, the
Marshal explained the delay of the
steamer in reaching Yokohama as due
to her going 400 miles south of her
regular course to avoid such an even
tuality. For two nights the steamer
had lights extinguished.
Adachi was detained in the Marshers
office on arrival until 1850 a. m, when
he was taken to Oahu Jail by the Mar
shall Under advice of District Attor-
ney Breckons he declined to be inter
viewed by reporters.
'HThe cablegram from Mr.. Breckons
giving me Adachi's address was hand
ed to me aboard the America Maru.
1t was the first information 1 had that
Adachi was not in custody" Marshal
Hendry said to an Advertiser reporter.
II showed my letters from Consul
Mkt Saito here to Mr.. Asano, presi-
dent of the Togo Kisen Kaisha steam
ship company. The immediate effect
of these Ietters-Mr. Saito being very
highly reputed in Japan-was simply
wonderful. The company placed its
big steam tug at my disposal and I
was carried ashore and conducted to
the hatoba where was a water police
station, and the tug came after me
again at 10 D. m. to take me aboard the
America Maru.
cat the station they put me in tele-
phonic communication with Lloyd c.
Griscom, United States Minister at
Toxic, who arranged that 1 meet him
next day, so that the eXtradition pa
pers- could be sent to the Foreign Of
flee. which was done.
Gas soon as I arrived at the legation
Mr.. Wilson, secretary, started in 20
write the letter to the Minister of For
eign Affairs, Baron Kumura. BY the
way, Mr.. Wilson is a great friend of
Frank Judd, they having been college
mates. By o'clock the same even
ing L had word that the letters were
received.
81 called on Minister Griscom next
day, Sunday (Feb. 14, and showed him
my letters from Mr.. Saito. He advised
me to make a personal call on S. Chin
da, Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs
who received me very courteously and
very pleasantly, saying he would take
the matter up personally and let me |
know some time on Monday the status |
of the case.
when I went back to the hotel 1 |
met DR.. Katsunuma's brother and his |
son and we went in to lunch together. |
I had just finished my soup when a
Foreign Office messenger came in with ,
a letter, having orders to deliver it to
none but myself 1t was a request to |
meet Mr.. Chinda at 2 o'clock. When L .
arrived there the Vice Minister in
formed me unofficially that after had |
left him man had been sent up from
