DELIVERY
PREVENTED
Prisoners We're Ready to
Break Jail.
TRAMP INFORMED JAILOR
Plans Found Out Just in Time
to Stop Escape Of
Five.
TRAMP INFORMED JAILOR

Brattleboro, April 7:-Plans for a
Wholesale jail delivery at the Wind
ham county jail at Newfane were di-
vulged to Jailor Frank Davis Tuesday
evening by tramp who was serving
a three months sentence. Mr. Davis
put an end to the scheme just in the
nick of time by confining the prison
ers in their cells.
The plan was to cut off the rivets
which held in place the iron bars
separating the Jail corridor from the
prison room. BY spreading the bars
the prisoners could get into the cor
ridor and lie inwait for the steward to
open the door leading to the street.
There are six prisoners in the jail,
and Mr. Davis believes that several if
not all of them we're planning to es-
cape.
The leader in the attempt was Fred
Charron, of Worcester, Mass, who
has served a term in the Massachus-
etts state prison at Charlestown. A
few days ago after the prisoners were
given one of their meals two case
knives were missed. The prisoners
stoutly maintained that they knew
nothing about them, and Sheriff Will
kins, of Putney, was notified, He and,
three other men searched high and low,
but did not find the knives.

APPLICANTS NO BONDS

Pownal, VT April 6:--The board of
license commissioners met at Pownal
Center Wednesday to consider appli-
cations for licenses. There we're only
two applications, George w. Hout
and George Bullet. Neither one was
provided with bondsmen, however, so
they could not be considered. The
hearing was postponed until next Tues
day when it is expected that the bonds
will be forth coming
1t is rumored that several out of
town parties will make application
for license in the Lime House"
which is now a very desirable stand
since Wrlliamstown went no license.
1t is not probable that the commits
sioners will grant aliceuse so far from
the town.

ians and who claimed they were not
fairly dealt with, having had a con-
ference with the Territorial Secretary
and being satisfied
The terms of the settlement We're not
mentioned but the controversy started
on the claim OF the natives that they
were working without knowing what

the contractor was not acting under
the peremptory orders issued by Sec
rotary, then Acting Governor Atkin-
son, some weeks since. that only citi-
zen labor should be- employed In
building this road,
II was originally claimed that sum

RECORD IN MURDER
TRIAL MISSING

Important papers, the loss OF which
may mean a new trial with consequent
expense TO the Government, are said to
be missing or stolen in the Funokochi
case and as the Attorney Generals de-
partment is after the responsible individ-
ualS and the case is serious one. i'll
teresting Developments may follow.
Funokochi was convicted OF murder in
Ililo and further charge with conSpiring
to murder in a second case. Attorney
Biting was appointed for him as coun-
sci and the record of the conviction on
the first charge brought from Hilo,
These papers were, it is said, returned
to llilo but they are now not to be
found while Funokochi's attorney now
asks for a new trial as the records OF
the former trial do not exist,
Attorney General Andrews comments
forcibly on the failure OF those charged
with the safe keeping OF the papers to
keep their trust. He does not think a
new trial should be granted as the de-
tense not the prosecution asked Tor the
records and not getting a copy OF them
are responsible iur the risk,

only to have the whole business laugh
ed at by a great many members of the
Legislature. The Bar Association was
simply held up to ridcule. Referring
to the secretarys letter on the sub
ject, a member of the House said 1t
was only one mans opinion" A
member expressed the idea that after
person had practiced in the district
court a few years he ought to be adj
| mitted without examination to prac-
tice in the Supreme Court.
| Mr.. Andrews would not give up for
ignorant legislators. They might as
well give up everything for the same
! reason. Rather, under the circum-
keep up the fight and go on record.
There would certainly be some change
in the Legislature. Besides, some nat
i've Hawaiians We're now getting away
, from the impression that a lawyers
| license gave a man prestige. Once
there might have been a necessity for
having the door wide open, on account
of the amount of business formerly
done in the Hawaiian language. Lat
terly the proportion of such business
had grown smaller and Hawaiian law
yers We're now scattering all over the
country
The motion carried, as amended on
the suggestion of Mr.. Davis. and the
chairman appointed Messrs. Andrews,
Wilmington and Dickey as the COM
mittee.
There was no further business.

There was little delay in securing a
quorum for the quarterly meeting of
the Hawaiian Bar Association, held in
Judge De Bolts courtroom yesterday
afternoon.
Secretary C. F. Clemens called the
meeting to order, asking it to appoint
chairman, as both the president and
the vice president were absent

by w. L. Whitney, Lorrin Andrews
a. II. Crook.
Mr.. Whitney read the report of the
committee on the annual dinner. 1t
mentioned the guests of honor and
credited w. r. Rawlins with looking
after the table details. A levy of SO
each was made on members TO pay the
expenses.
Mr.. Wilder thought a financial state
ment ought to accompany the report,
for the information of some of them
who had paid the fee but We're pre-
vented from attending the dinner.
Mr.. Whitney promised to furnish the
desired statement.
Frank +. Thompson was unanimously
elected a member of the Association by
the secretary's ballot cast on motion
of Mr.. Wilder, seconded by Mr.. Davis.
Mr.. Castle asked if the Association
had any instructions for him, as he in
tended going to st. Louis and would
attend the worlds congress of lawyers.
Mr.. Wilmington suggested that Mr..
Castle be elected as a delegate to the
American Bar Association. After some
conversation over the fact that several
nominations to the national association
We're made at the previous meeting, Mr..
Castle being one, a motion was passed
that MIR. Castle be furnished with Gre
dentials as such delegate.
Attorney General Andrews called at
tention to the matter of practitioners

We're limited thereto. They practiced
