kauai GRAND Jury
MAKES warm REPORT

The Kauai grand jury for the No.
yember term, after an eight days ses-
sion, filed its report on Thursday and
was excused subject TO recall II neces-
sary. VIM. Fisher was foreman. True
bills were found in 22 cases. including
two district magistrates and three po-
lice officers.
The grand jury's report included the
following:
We find that the Honolulu authori'
ties, for reasons known TO themselves
only, have acted in the granting OF
new licenses, applied for under the
baneful law placed on the statutes Of
the territory by the last legislature, in
haste unusual in such matters and
certainly most unwise and hurtful.
Our legal adviser informed us that
the issuing of liquor license may be
retarded for reasonable time after
the application for such license has
been filed, no doubt for the purpose OF
enabling an inquiry into the merits Of
the application, yet we find from ths
copies of the original licenses and 9TH
er documents, furnished us by the ter.
ritorial treasurer, that licenses were
issued within the shortest possible
time after the receipt of applications.
During our Investigation into mat
tiers pertaining to the police depar.
ment In certain districts we found that
in one district the deputy sheriff and
two policemen are closely related by
ties of blood and marriage We do not
think such conditions tend to guaran.
tee an honest conduct of public busi
ress and we would suggest that in ap.
pointing public officers their relation
ship to other officers in the same dis.
trict be carefully considered. We re-
greet to state that in our opinion a
part at least of the police force OF this
island Is utterly unfit to hold their rc.
sponsible and honorable positions.
We have a great deal of testimony
to show that policemen not only do
nothing to convict the keepers Of
gambling houses, but actually frequent
such dens during the time gambling
Is carried on, nay they even keep watch
outside and invoke those they know to
so in and join the gamo.

THREE C()RNERED
LEGAL CONTEST

The trial of Julio Silva and Pascio
Raggas, charged with forging money
order. began before Judge Dole this
morning. District Attorney Breckons
conducted the prosecution, Attorney
Olsen defended Silva and w. w. Thay.
er, Raggas.
Breckons in his statement to the
jury said that he expected to prove
that one Mattos had sent a money or.
der for 500 to one Ricardo Riviera.
Raggas was arrested by the County pc.
lice on Territorial charge on April Z.
On April s, while he was still in Gus.
tody, Silva conducted Raggas to the
postoffice, where the two collected the
Riviera money order. One of them
had forged the signature on 1t. Silva
was at the time police officer and
interpreter. AS soon as the money
was collected he took Raggas back In.
TO custody. Silva claimed that he had
known Raggas for years under the
name of Ricardo Riviera and that he
thought he was the person to whom
the money order was payable. He
merely took Raggas to the postoffice
to identify him. Raggas. on the other
hand, claims that he was in custody
and under Silva's control. He merely
went with Silva TO the postoffice. Sill
va put the money in his own pocket
and took Raggas back to jail immedi.
ately after the money had been col.
lected.
As Raggas throws all the blame on
Silva, and Silva on his part says that
Raggas is wholly and solely RESPONSE.
| BILE. the case has developed into pc
culiar sort of a three.cornered fight.
The United States is after both the de.
| PENDANTS and they, on the other hand,
are against each other, each trying to
clear himself by throwing all the
blame on his co.defendant. This is
quite evident in the conduct of the
trial. After Breckons has finished his
direct examination Of his witnesses,
| he turns them over to the defense.
Both Olsen and Thayer examine each
witness and Breckons sits by watch,
ing with some satisfaction how each
of the defendants in his effort to dis
credit his partner for the benefit of
himself, is helping to strengthen the
case of the prosecution.
The first witness placed on the stand
by the prosecution was Postoffice In
spector Hare. He identified the forS'
ed money order and gave some gener'
al testimony regarding the discovery
of the forgery and the handling of
money orders.
Mattos. the man who sent the money
order from Paia, was the next witness
He said that he sent the money order
which was for $50, to his childs
godmother Ricardo Riviera, who had
asked him for the money as loan.
He sent the order in letter which he
himself addressed to Sonora Ricarda

MINUS A PANCREAS.

New York, October 12.-As a result
Of Millionaire George william Gait
having willed his body for dissection
to Bellevue, the amazing discovery was
made that he had lived for months
without a pancreas, the most import.
ant of the digestive organs.
The dissection ordained by the sorely
stricken millionaire, who was the hus-
band of Caroline Chapman Gait, well
known club woman, to advance the
science of medicine, revealed to the
surgeons the most remarkable aggra.
waited morbid condition of an impor.
tant organ ever revealed under the
surgeons knife. The pancreas had
withered away until II was represented
by mere shriveled lump of tissue. No
case of like sort had ever come under
the observation of physicians.
The autopsy was performed by Har.
old Brooks, pathologist of the Bellevue
Medical College. in the presence of a
number of physicians. The vital or.
gans were removed by DR.. Brooks
with great care, and 1t was noted that
all the diseases for which MIR. Gait had
been receiving treatment existed.
When the pancreas was reached, its
remarkable condition was discovered
at once, and a microscopic examination
was made. II was then removed.
The body will now be turned over to
the second-year students Of the college
for dissection under the direction OF a
demonstration in anatomy. The re-
mains will then be cremated. '.fs-
