OFFICER PRAISES THE
LOCAL ARMY CORRAL

Col E. A. Darlington, Inspector
General of the Division of the Philip
pines, who Is next in line for appoint
ment to the position of Inspector Gen
eral of the United States Army, was
here recently on his way to the Philip
pines. While in Honolulu he inspected
the government corral at Iwilei. Col.
Darlington expressed himself to Cap
tain Humphreys, the local quarter
master, as being greatly pleased with
the condition of the corral. He said
that it was one Of the best arranged
and best kept corrals in the country.
Improvements have been made recently
that add further to the place and tend
to make it a model corral.
1t is reported that Brigadier General
Thomas H. Barry has been appointed
military attache to General Linevitch's
army and may pass through Honolulu
soon on his way to the seat of war. AS
Oyama's army the United States will

officers of high rank. The only at
tache of equal or superior rank is
Lieut.. Gen. Ian Hamilton who has been
representing the British army with the
Japanese and he is understood to be
about to return home. 1t is unusual
for American officers to outrank those
of foreign armies in such places as
the large number of foreign officers Of
high rank generally permits even a
third rate power to be represented by
at least Lieutenant General Prince
| Somebody"
Another army officer who may visit
Hawaii soon is Quartermaster General
Humphreys, father of Captain Hum
phreys, who is stationed here. With
party of officers he is now making a
tour of inspection through Porto Rico
travelling to and from the island on q
transport. Next year 1t is expected
that he will make an inspection of the
Hawaiian station and from here go &c
the Philippines to inspect that depart.

MAKES FINAL REPORT

Besides the Starbuck indictments
elsewhere reported the Federal grand
jury returned true bill against Esther
jacobson for undertaking large
variety of merchandise imported from
China and Japan, one against Shimiga
Tosaburo and Zinno Tsanekichi jointly
for possession of distilling apparatus
and one against Tam Pong and two
against Chang Apana for crimes I'M
der the Edmunds Act.
A final report was presented by the
grand jury yesterday and Judge Dole
discharged it from further service.
Thirty-nine true bills hdd been return
ed and in five cases investigated no
bills were found.
The grand jury calls attention to
the many postoffice defalcations in the
Territory and suggests, in view of the
distance from Washington, that a
more effective audit system be estab-
lished in the Honolulu postofiice."
After a searching investigation of
the question the grand jury is happy to
state that there is no evidence that
polygamy has ever been practiced
among the Mormons in this Territory.
The usual thanks are given to the
United States officers who assisted the
grand jury in it's Investigations.

TEACHERS ACT ON
THE SALARY QUESTION

Last evening the Honolulu branch
of the Territorial Teachers Associa-
ton met at the High School and passed
resolutions in favor of restoring the
old schedule OF teachers salaries. Sew
eral speeches were made. The prin-
cipal address was by NJ. M. Scott, who
urged the cause of the teachers In
emphatic terms. Prof. SCOTS address
was applauded and fairly represented
the sense of the meeting. Other
speeches were made, on Nthe same

FIRE CLAIM
DECISION
Judge Dole Applies an
Exception to Rule
Of Equity.

Where a bank holds paper for coll
lection belonging to a person out of
the jurisdiction and an assignment, by
the drawee and acceptor of the paper,
of fund for the payment thereof, 1t
may be a party to suit of inter-
pleader concerning such fund, without
such foreign person being made a party
to the proceedings"
With some technical rulings the fore
going principle of law is declared by
u. S. Judge Dole in the interpleader
case relating to the fire claim Of See
Long and others, partners in the firm
of Yee Chong. While VIM. F. Mac
Lehman, U. S. Treasury agent, is
nominally plaintiff the real plaintiffs
are Bishop & Co. and Cecil Brown,
they holding drafts on Yokohama and
Hongkong banks, respectively. accept
ed by the zee Chong defendants and
secured by assignment of interest in
the award of the Fire Claims Com
mission to that Chinese firm.
The court directed that the issue OF
title in the money held by the nominal
plaintiff, which is in the courts Gus
tody, be made. With the exception OF
one point, where leave is given to
amend, the court overrules the de-
murrer of the zee Chong defendants
holding:
There are exceptions to the genera
rule in equity that all persons having
a beneficial interest in the subject mat.
ter of the suit should be made partie:
thereto even though the legal title may
be in others.
"rhe rule will not be enforced WHERE
1t would do injustice OF cause great in
convenience, but may be modified Oh
dispensed with in such instances"
In this case 1t is found that such in
justice and inconvenience would b.
worked by making the foreign banks
mentioned parties. So the Yee Chons
defendants are held to their assign
ments. District Attorney Breckon

proved it also, amending it so that the

A Great Bend Knocker.

AS general thing the people of
Great Bend have personal pride in
building up the city, and In encourag-
ing any institution which helps to inn
prove the general business. But once
and a while you will observe some
small caliber individual get out his
little hammer and go to knocking.
An instance of this kind comes to
our notice-the last few days, in the
efforts of a certain publisher to boom
the Hutchinson News.
The Great Bend citizen who sup
ports that paper in preference to his
home paper will observe that the
News is for Hutchinson, first last and
all the time. It is not interested in
Great Bend, spends no money, pays
no taxes, helps no churches, advocates
no Improvements for Great Bend; but
on the other hand it will be found
fighting Great Bend. at any and all
times that the interests of this city
conflict with those of Hutchinson.
The DAILY RUSTLER is home
paper, for Great Bend and Barton
county. 1t gives tie telegraph news to
people here in advance of the News;
gives the local news. which the other
paper does not; spends its money
here and will be found fighting for the
interests of home people. Take your
hammer in Ira.
