THE LODGING HOUSE LAW
FOUND UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Judge Gear Discharges Frank Lucewelko...Ihe
Statute Does Not Control Discretion
Of Board of Health.

BY a decision rendered by Judge
Gear yesterday, the lodging house IL
cense law is held TO be unconstitu-
tional and void. It was in the case Of
Frank Luceweiko, commonly known
as Russian Frank" who was indicted
at the September 1903 term of the First
Circuit Court, 'for that he did, in Ho-
noluIu on the 25th day OF May, unlaw-
fully and without a license so to do,
as by law provided and required, keep
and maintain a lodging house, and did
then and there and thereby commit
the offense of keeping a lodging house
without a license, contrary to the form
of the statute in such case made and
provided
The motion to quash the Indictment,
presented by C. C. Biting, is quashed,
the defendant discharged and his bond
cancelled. Deputy Attorney General
Peters appeared for the Territory
against the motion.
The statute which Luceweiko was
charged with violating reads in part
as follows, being Act Ga, Laws of 1896,
as amended by Act 80, Laws of 1898:
Sec. 20. No license shall be issued
for a lodging or tenement house. hotel
boarding house or restaurant, until the
applicant shall secure from the Board
of Health and present to the Minister
a certificate setting forth that an a
gent OF the Board has examined the |
house or houses proposed to be used
for such purposes, with a description !
thereof sufficient to identify and locate |
the same; and that the same are In |
good sanitary condition and suitable |
to be used for such purposes. and Qf |
the application is for a license for
lodging or tenement house, hotel or
boarding house, stating the number of
persons who, by law, can be lodged
therein.
"And, further, that no license shall
be issued for any lodging or tenement
house. hotel, boarding house or restau-
rant to be established or maintained
in any location which in the opinion
of the Executive Council is unsuited
for the purpose, or which the Execu-
tive Council believes to be objection
able
Sec II prescribes the conditions
which are to be incorporated in the
laws, and Sec. 72 provides for a penal
ty in case any person keeps a lodging
or tenement house, etc, without IL
cense.
The findings of the court sufficiently
indicate the grounds of the motion to
quash without quoting them here. One
of the contentious was that there is
nothing in the laws nor in the Organic
Act of the Territory providing for an
Executive Council Minister in
the law above quoted means the Min
lister of the Interior under the Repub-
lie of Hawaii, whose duties We're div
ided between other officials named in
the Organic Act at the institution of
the Territory.
Judge Gear points out, in the begin
ming, that the part of the statute which
requires the approval of the Executive
Council as to the location of the lodg-
ing house has already been declared
unconstitutional by the Supreme Court
in the case of Tai Kee VS.. Minister of
Interior. IL Haw.. 166. 167 for the !

TRIBUTE TO TUE SPEAKER


Usual Resolution of Thanks Is Not of the
Perfuncfory Kind.
The closing of the session of the
house was made notable by the DEM
onstration which was evoked by res
olution offered by Williams, the minor
ity leader, testifying to the courtesy
and impartial manner in which Speak
er Cannon had presidedover the house.
The resolution was not of the per-
functory kind, but was expressive Of
the kindly feeling which men in the
house of all parties entertained to-
ward him. In graceful speech the
speaker declared his appreciation Of
| the resolution.
When he moved the adoption of the
resolution Williams made a very fiat
| tering speech. in the course of which
he convulsed the house by referring
the speaker, in the course of which
he said. MIR. Speaker, l will always
think that you are fair, as believe
you will be-" The speaker, he said,
replied: John, l am going to be as
fair as can consistently with the ext
gencies of American politics" Will
Jams declared that the speaker did
himself injustice when he put that linn
itation on his statement.
I During this speech and the adoption
of the resolution the speaker was abb
sent from the chair, and committee
was appointed to bring him in" as
Williams expressed it. When he came
in and took his place and heard the
resolution read. Cannon was visibly
affected, and when he began to speak
his voice was low. He soon recovered
himself, and feelingly thanked tie
house for it's expression of kindness.
He closed: II wish each member Of
this house a safe journey to his home;
good heulth until the next session of
congress-, when after having come in
touch with the people he returns ready
for a renewal of his work in the pub
lie interest" He then declared the
session ended.
The ovation to the speaker as he
brought his gavel down will be long
remembered as one of the greatest
demonstrations OF regard ever wit
messed in the house of representatives.
As one man the members rose and
sang America" the occupants OF the
galleries joining in Speaker Cannon
took a position near the lobby door IN
the Republican side, and the menl-
bers filed past and babe him Good.

VladivEtok, April 80. = Following
is the Russian account of the sinking

ru: The Russian squadron, after its

started on another expedition. At in
the evening of April %, when 300

crew, consistingof fifteen Koreans and
twelve Japanese, was placed in safety

Gromoboi by Lieutenant Bolotnikoff.
About IL o'clock the same night,

promptly signaled in reply: stop in
stantly." The crew Of the transport
saw its mistake and began to lower
boats with the greatest haste and en-
deavored to escape, but the Russian
steam cutters captured all.
When the transport was boarded six
infantry officers were found in the cab
In and taken prisoners. In another
part Of the ship $50 infantrymen who
refused to surrender were found. ad-
miral Yeszen, whose vessel was about
