appearance seemed necessary to a de-

Whiting said he had not yet eXa-
mined the case. He had some idea Of
what answer he would file, but might
conclude to advise Trent to refuse to
pay the warrant, which is what the
suit asks the court to instruct Trent
to do.

IS At
A STANDSTILL
REFUSAL OF TREASURER TRENT
TO PAY AN INCIDENTAL EX-
'PENSE CAUSES DELAY.

Through the refusal of County Treas
urer Trent to pay an incidental ex-
pense warrant, justice is at a standstil
The wheels of justice are clogged as
it were and the prosecution of che-fa
cases in the police court have to stop.
There are about thirty che-fa cases
on the court calendar awaiting trial.
Under the ruling of the court only an
expert can give testimony as to the
nature of the game. In order to Sc
cureu sch witness the county attorney
secured 5000 from the board of super
visors to be used in incidental expenses
during the month of September. The
idea was that this money should be
used in defraying the expenses of en-
ploying expert witnesses in che-fa
cases. The Treasurer has refused how
ever to pay the warrant.
The result was that when eleven che
ia cases were called i'm the police court
this morning, Deputy County Attorney
Milverton asked for a continuance eX-
planning that the prosecution was un-
able to proceed until it had been able
to arrange about securing the money
with which to pay the expenses of the
experts. c. F. Chillingworth for the
defendants protested that his clients
should be tried, the cases had been con-
tinued for weeks and he insisted that
the defendants be tried.
The court took the same view and
said that the prosecution would have
to proceed with the cases or else nolle
prossequis would be entered. A con-
tinuance until tomorrow was however
granted the prosecution.

THE TALE OF BRICKS
CONTINUED from page one.)

lions suddenly ceased and the sales of
bricks stopped and the company went
out of business.
Answers have been filed for Frank
Hustace, f. j. Lowrey and A N, Camp
bell, by Castle & Wilmington. Various
of the answers admit that the property
capitalized at $4,000 is worth only $780,
900, but they set forth that the higher
valuation was fair and reasonable sew
eral years ago. Kerr's answer says:
"At the time brick was selling in Ho-
nolulu at from SIS to $22 per M. and
Honolulu was then using in the neigh
borhood of 100000 bricks per month.
This respondent made a general search
for clay beds on the Island of Oahu and
after experimenting with the clay
found on different parts of the Island,
a clay deposit was found in Nuuanu
Valley, Honolulu, which was determin-
ed to be suitable for the manufacture
of brick, and it was decided to estab-
lish a brick works there
Experts were secured and paid big
salaries and expenses and the land in
Nuuanu Valley was purchased together
with some expensive machinery, says
Kerr's answer and it continues: 1.-The
tbrick yard so established was capable
Rof turning out 100000, 600 bricks OF good
Equality, at the rate . off $4,000 per
month, at a cost not exceeding SO per
thousand, which would at the then
price of bricks have given a profit to
the company in the neighborhood of
$S5 900 per annum. A large quantity of
brick had been sold and a large guam
tity remained unsold, when it became
necessary tha- further capital should
be invested in the concern. This re-
spondent had actually invested in cash
$4,000 and over in the matter of said
brick yard, and had made no charge
for his services. in the matter. A cor
poration was formed under the name
of the Honolulu Clay Co., Ltd, and the
property of said brick yard was sold to
said corporation as set out in said bill,
and this respondent says that the sum
of $4,000 given in the paid up stock
for said property was not an unfair or
inadequate price therefor, but on the
contrary was a fair and reasonable
price.
That the incorpOrators of said COM
pany received no cash for the property
conveyed by them to said company, but
now worthless. That sometime after
the Incorporation of said company
building activity in Honolulu suddenly
ceased, and ..le company was unable "a
sell and dispose of the stock of bricks
manufactured by it. That the assess
able stockholders of the company were
fully apprised of the amount of paid
up stock ISSUED in payment of said
brick yard thu everything in the mat
ter of said Incorporation was done
fairly and above board and no person
gave credit to said company on the
strength of the amount paid by it for
its assets, but on the value Of the as
sets themselves. At the time of the
Incorporation of said company, the
value Of real estate in and about Homo
lulu was increasing rapidly and thus
respondent and those associated with
him could have sold the lands purchas-
ed by them for the purpose Of said bust
ness for more than double the price al
which the same was conveyed to the
company"

Holstein was considerably Jared at
the result of shipping pineapples and
figured out that it would take a very
long time to get rich on shipments that
cost more to handle than they bring
in, but Guard was cheerful. He wrote
a letter stating that he would like to
talk pineapples and expressed hopes
for better things in the future, as fol-
lows:
Il am sending you a copy of the re-
turns on the shipment of pines which is
disgusting; they got there in good or
der with the exception of II which
were rotten, they brought SO per dozen,
and at any other time of the year
would bring 81, but the charges from
your port to Hilo is simply outrageous
The loss on the shipment / will
charge to Profit and Loss but hope
it will not prevent your planting a
large area in pines for we will find a
way of getting the fruit to market
Very truly,
"R. T. GUARD"

Spreckels has always been dictator
