Clerk Kalauokalani read a letter to
himself from the Attorney General
stating that he had no. property under

partment which he could turn over to

the Attorney General meant that he
had no property "now" under his con-
troll.
The letter was filed.
Attorney Douthitt wrote to the clerk
saying he had examined the lease for
county offices submitted to him and
found it in due form. He quoted the
law, adding that the Board had the
power and might authorize the chair
\ man to sign the lease.
Under new business the matter came
up, when Lucas moved that the lease
be approved and that the chairman be
authorized to sign it.

to do with it and urged keeping inside

attorney.

Late in the day Mayor Weaver. accom-

that their lines remain unbroken. that
the gas lease will be passed over the
Mayors veto next week and that the

ANTITRUST LAW
BEFORE THE COURT
Governments Right to Probe
Private Companies In
yOlVed.

NEW YORK, May A.-Elihu Root and
Lelaacey NicoH appeared before Judge
Wallace in the United States Circuit
Court to-day and argued in behalf of
Edwin F. Hale, who pettioned for writ
Il habeas corpus after he had been fined
for contempt OF court in refusing to an
swer questions before the Federal Grand
Jury in the investigation Of the American
Tobacco Company's affairs. They con-
tended that such investigation was lile-
gal; that a specific charge against a spe-
cihc person was necessary to make 1t
proper; that il transgressed the constitu-
uonal rights Of personal privacy, and
that the immunity provision of the Sher-
man antitrust law did not apply TO the
case Of Hale. Henry ". Taft acted as
Special assistant United States District
Attorney in the inquiry. representing the
Government. Taft argued that ii was
not necessary for specific charges to be
preferred. that the Federal Grand Jury
had unlimited inquisitorial powers; that
such action as had been taken was found
necessary owing TO the scheming ability
Of the alleged trust to avoid exposure
Otherwise il would be impossible to get
at the secrets Of violators Of the Sher-
man act
When the arguments were concluded
Judge Wallace gave the lawyers until
June ! to file their briefs. He will then
take the matter up and render a decision.
