ANSWER OF EVASION

The response Of the Attorney Gen.
eral to the questions presented by the
House of Representatives is very
fair effort at evasion so far as the an.
swer to vital questions is concerned.
1t is not difficult for the citizens Of
this Territory to realize that the effort
TO kill the County law has not ended.
The Legislature can see plainly that
1t must again go on record in defense
Of the demands of the people agains,
the lukewarm attitude-to saw the
least-of the executive department
sworn to uphold the laws Of the Terri
tory.

LEFT lot BEHIND

The Territory through the Attorney
General, has filed an information for
q decree OF escheat W.. Irene b. Corn.
well and John F. Colburn. 1t is shown
that Colburn is now in possession Of
q lot on Kinau street. Irene Cornwell
claims possession Of the premises
through her tenant, Colburn, while Col
burn claims possession adversely to
Irene Cornwell, and the Attorney Gen
eral does not know which of the con
tentions is true.
1t is shown that the lot was granted
by King Kamehameha to one Edmund
Smith in 1850. In 1851 Smith left the
country and nothing has been heard
from him or his heirs since. The plain
tiff therefore prays that the premises

THE SAN DOMINGO TREATY.
The People Are Afraid That in Its
Present Form 1t would Make
Morales Rule Perpetual.

Washington, Dec. 1G.--It developed
at a meeting Of the senate committee
on foreign relations, Friday, that is it
Santo Domingo and not the United
states that l. anxious to have amended
the pending treaty in relltion to Dom
inican financial affairs.
The seventh article of the treaty is
construed to give the United States au-
thority TO send warships to the ports
of the republic to enforce the terms
OF the treaty and to put down any dis
order than might threaten the smooth
operation of the convention. Seere,
tary Root was before the senate com
mittee and testified that the Dominican
people desired to have the treaty
amended to provide that such assist
ance may be called for by the con-
eress OF Santo Domingo. Under the
present phraseology it appears that au-
thority to call upon the United States
rests with the president of Santo Do
mingo. Without the amendment, it is
said the Dominican republic would re-
fuse to Eatify the convention, as it Is
claimed by the Dominican opponents to
the present treaty that If put in opera
ton in its present form President
Morales could hold the presidency for
ever, and that his heirs would take It
in succession. No action was taken
concerning the treaty.

court while in the visitors cage in the
jail, talking with the last of his many
wives, Mrs. Fischer-Hoch, the sister
of the for whose murder he
was sentenced to death. When he re-
ceiyed the news, Hoch became greatly
excited, and, pressing his face against
the wire netting, he shouted: "You are
a liar, a liar. 1t is not true. do not
believe It."
Later he said: II have nothing to
say; nothing at all. If it must come,
then it must. | have nothing more
TO say"
The specific charge against Hoch,
and of which he was convicted, was the
killing of his wife by the administra-
tion of arsenic. He fed from the city,
and was arrested in New York and
brought back to Chicago. He was
placed on trial April 10, and convicted
May 20. Sentence of death was passed
on him or June 8, the original date Of
June % being set for his execution.
Gov. Dennen granted him a reprieve I'M

Before the arrival of this day, how
ever, the supreme court granted him a
supersedeas to allow of the c%onsldera-
ton Of his case. This decision of the
court destroys his last hope unless Gov.
Deneen interferes.
