Section IA of the insurance act,
which deals with the matter of de-
putty" said the attorney, "says that
powers of the insurance commissioner
shall devolve on the deputy in the alb
sence of the Commissioner or his in
ability from any cause to exercise the
powers and discharge the duties of his
office There is no showing here that
the Commissioner is absent or unable
to exercise the powers and discharge
the duties of his office. We submit
that the deputy had no authority to
issue or revoke a license, or do any of
the other acts which it is set forth
that he did"
Attorney General Andrews replied for
the insurance commissioner, contending
that under the general rule Of law the
general deputy had powers to act as
Smithies had done, and that the title
and form of the action made Kepoikai
and Smithies officially parties to 1t.
Judge De Bolt however, gave a ruling
granting the motion to quash, and the
case was dismissed.
Judge De Bolts decision amounts to
a practical notification of all the acts
Smithie shas done as insurance COM
missioner under the new law. The
motion to quash was granted on both
of the grounds set forth. Judge De
Bolt held that unless there was a show
ing that the Treasurer of the Territory
eX-officio insurance commissioner, was
either absent or unable to perform the
duties of his position, the acts of the
deputy were unauthorized,
Under this decision the acts done by
Smithies, including all the issuance Of
licenses, examinations of charters and
securities, etc, are declared to be void,
and all may have to be done again by
the Treasurer, personally or by author
izing and approving the deputys acts.

CARRIED SACKS
FOR NAKIHU MONEY

There was a marked demonstration
this morning by the stockholders of
the Nahiku Sugar Company. In fact
the demonstration partook of the ma
ture of an Irish wake for the stockhold-
ers were going to the office of Alexan-
der and Baldwin to sign over all their
right title and interest to the Nahiku
Company in order that Alexander and
Baldwin could take control of the prop
erty. The Irish wake idea was made
quite appropriate by having the Irish
Consul Tom McTighe, march at the
head Of the column,
Promptly at 10 o'clock this morning
small army of stock holders assembled
at the Office of Jas. F. Morgan on Kaa-
humanu street. The line in single
column was established and then the
body of stockholders charged as 1t
were, on the offices of Alexander and
Baldwin. First marched the band con-
sisting of a boy ringing a loud tongued
auction bell then came the Irish Con-
sui" with a long stick of sugar cane
and a brand new Nahiku sugar sack
across his shoulder. Then marched the
prlvates of the Nahiku army each
wearing-in addition to their regular
clothes of course,-a Nahiku sack. The
army consisted of Jas. +. Morgan, w.
II. Hoogs, Harry Armitage, John GU
derkirk, Fred Lyman, Q. H. Berrey and
Carl Kaiser.
The party had been stockholders in
the Nahiku Sugar Company and were
going to Alexander and Baldwin offices
to receive the 40 per cent for their stock
The sacks were intended to carry away
the payments. The demonstration gem
orally was to announce the good for
tune that had come to the stockholders
from the liberality of the agents in tax
ing over the property on the present
terms.
The Army" did not consist of all the
stockholders by any means. There
were others who went in a less osten-
tatious manner to the offices of Alex
ander and Baldwin to receive their
part Of the payment.

WHAT MANNER OF
CRAFT IS SHE

Looking very different from the way
she appeared in her last visit to Homo.
lulu, the barkentine Andromeda arrived
this morning from Newcastle. The
vessel arrived here over a year ago in
distress. She had been thrown on her
beam ends while going in ballast from
Taltal to Eureka. The masts had to
be cut away in order to right the YES
sci. She was headed for Honolulu
and arrived with only the stumps of
the fore and mizzen masts standing.
She was purchased by the Tyson in
terests on the coast, was partially re-
paired and sailed to Eureka under a
jury rig.
There was considerable confusion
over her status. She could not sail
without some rating. Her owners de-
sired to secure an American registry
for her. claiming that at least two
thirds of her value were to be spent
in repairing her. The vessel was al
lowed to sail without any flag but I'M
der special permission from the Trea-
sury Department.
She was fully repaired at Eureka and
then went from Puget Sound with lum-
Der to Australia last year, sailing under
the American flag. No American re-
gistry had been granted her however
and she went under some special ar
rangement. Subsequently Captain Ram
selius her master, was informed that he
would be subject to a fine if he at
tempted to come from Newcastle back
to an American port under the Amer
lean flag as the registry had not been
settled, so he put his vessel under the
CHILEAN flag.
The vessel Is now American owned
but she can not secure such registry
unless by special act of Congress. Con-
gressiona1 action has not been taken
in her case however.
1t was stated that the Andromeda
had been put under a foreign flag by
reason of a recent decision whereby
American owned foreign vessels going
from an American port to a foreign
port could fly the American flag but
when coming to an American port with
import caEgoes, they could not fly such
flag. This would account for the
Andromeda changing to the CHILEAN
flag.
The vessel experienced variable winds
She sighted nothing during her voyage.
She was 62 days out. The Andromeda
brought 1850 tons of coal to order. Cap
tain Ramselius her master was former
| ly in the barkentine James L. Evils
ton.

LABOR HAS
fah 0uWl

3 Captain Ramselius Of the barkentine
Andromeda had an experience with the
labor laws in Australia, which seems
almost incredible. The vessel arrived
this morning from Newcastle with a
cargo of coal. She Went to Newcastle
with lumber from Puget Sound.
Captain Ramsellus wanted to dis
charge his vessel with his own crew
composed of union sailors. The long
shoremens union refused to permit
such a thing. They insisted on taking
POSSESSION of his vessel and forcing him
70 allow the stevedores from shore to
discharge his vessel. Captain Ramse-
Illus was forced to accede to the de-
mands fef the union people as he was
prosecuted in the Arbitration Court
which is a recent institution in Austria
liza. He was fined in all 70 pounds and
II shillings. He states that he was or
dered to pay the fine not to the court
but to the secretary of the union. The
case was one of the first that was tried
before the Arbitration Court. 1t will be
tested In the higher courts by the ship
ping people. Captain Ramselius says
that the labor people exercise great in
fiuence in Australia and that they insist
that labor on vessels while in Austria
liam ports shall not be done by the
members Of the crews but by men from
shore.

hui and Jack Weday ought to be an i'll
teTesting f5it. While Wee is much
heavier than his opponent. Huihui is
hard hitter, is shifty and is Tally as
game as Weday. This is likely to
prove the best fight Of the evening.

derson in a six-round contest Jackson
is willing to mix it up with his oppo-
nents and if Anderson wants a rough
and tumble contest he will get Il.
The four-round go between Soldier
Latham and Dick O'Meara promises to
be a lively fight. Latham is the OPsy
local man who has ever showed up sue
cessfully with Huihui. Their last con-
test was a draw. The winner of the
present bout will fight Huihui
Joe Castro and kid" Gelp will fight
four rounds. Joe is a hard fighter and
is willing to take punishment in order
to get at his man.
Ernest Heine and Eugene MedeirUs

kelley contains twenty per cent Of alco-
hol, while the imported article contains
only seventeen. The Importance OF
Broker Johnston's find to the local
importers consists in the fact that If
the Treasury Department treats domes-
tic brewed saki as beer, and taxes it
as such, It can hardly insist that the
imported article is wine and tax it on
that classification.
