Most of the law cases on the term

THIS JUDGE WILL
FAVOR TUG CHINESE

WHEELING CIV. va), September
19.-Judge A. q. Dayton of the United
States Court has given notice before
the bench that he would rule In favor
of the Chinese henceforth in exclusion
act cases. The Courts statement
rather remarkable. yet backed by un-
mistakable conviction--was based on
the case of Yee Kan, Chinese COM
ing to the United States twenty-five
years ago. At that time he entered as
a merchant, later becoming a laundry
man. He was picked up some months
ago and held on the ground that he
did not own a certificate requiring new
registration, which the officer insisted
should classify him as laborer The
old Chinese, Judge Dayton said, has
established a business and secured
property and had right to be here
The idea Of enforcing the exclusion
act, which was n measure of political
expediency aimed to protect the Pa
cific Coast, when no restraint Is placed
upon the lowest type of slave and
Southern Europe offscouring, was re-
pugnant to the spirit of the day. He
said he would continue to rule thus
until reversed by higher authority.

JURlES LEGALLY DRAWN
BUT TERM IN SUSPENSE

Juries for the September term were
yesterday afternoon, by Chief Justice
Frear orally from the bench, decided
that way on the question reserved by
Judge De Bolt.
Whether or not there is a Septem-
Der term of the First Circuit Court the
Supreme Court has yet to decide, the
sideration at the conclusion of argu-
ment.
Associate Justices Hartwell and Will

health, session of the Supreme Court
composed of it's own members was
served by Judge Robinson in the case
of All On, charged with perjury, as
to whether or not the September term
had lapsed on account of having not
been opened on Monday, September 4,
was Immediately called for argument.
A. S. Humphreys, former Circuit
Judge, opened the combat, followed by
A. Perry. former Supreme Court JUS
tice. Both argued at length that the
term lapsed for the cause stated. as
the statute fixing the opening day as
the first Monday in September was
mandatory and, besides, was subse-
quent to the statute declaring the same
day, as Labor Day, to be legal holi-
day.

The chair said that when road su-

The petition was referred to Paele,

The bonds were ordered placed in the

Lucas will write to the company
about the matter.
Attorney Milverton drew attention to
the fact that certain warrants not back
ed by appropriations had been drawn.
The board had been under the impress
sion that motions had authorized these
warrants, but it transpired that the
warrants, concerning which the treas
urer had reported, had never been
backed by any appropriations.
The matter comes up at the next
meeting.
Moore stated that the county's power
was fully taxed at present, when sug-

IN FAULT

Judge Robinson yesterday morning
granted the motion of petitioner to
strike out the supplemental answer of
Treasurer Trent to Il. b. MoUlana-
hans petition for an injunction to re-
strain the respondent from paying n
blanket warrant on account of road
work to Andrew Adams, chairman Of
the Koolaupoko road board. The in
junction case will come up for trial
on its merits at 8 O'Clock this morn
ing.
Mr.. McClanahan, who appeared in
person, called as witnesses County
Clerk Kalauokalani, Auditor Bicknell,
T.. r.. Adams and II. II. Moore, and
Andrew Adams. BY their evidence it
was shown that Saturday afternoon
meeting of the board of supervisors
when the resolution canceling the war
rant in question was passed-was con-
vened at the call of Chairman Smith
pursuant to adjournment, but being
called at only half hours notice all
of the members could not be notified
This was the case even with II. T.
Moore, though he was in town at the
time.
Andrew Adams testified that when
Trent had refused to pay the war
rant, he had turned it over to County
Attorney Douthitt, but without "sur-
rendering it. After the temporary
injunction was dissolved, Trent tele-
phoned to him that he would pay the
warrant.
Mr.. McClanahan argued that the
hurried meeting of the board WAS both
unbusinesslike and dangerous preo-
edept. He also said it was absurd to
cancel warrant that had not been
surrendered.
w. A. Whiting, for the respondent,
submitted that the meeting had been
regularly called pursuant to the vote
of adjournment of the previous meet
ing. He also contended that the treas
urer WAS bound by the resolution of
the supervisors and could not pay the
warrant. Therefore the proceedings
were useless.
Mr.. McClanahan replied, saying that
the treasurer had promised to pay the
warrant and that, if the court held
that the board had no right to cancel
the warrant, it was sthi effective.
Judge Robinson, in granting the mo-
tion, said it looked as if the board of
supervisors had trified with the court,
or else had been carried away by ex-
cessive zeal in gaining a point.

GOOD PUT

A. c. Mcleod, formerly field boss at
Kahuku Plantation, returned recently
from visit to his folks at Prince Ed
wards Island and is now occupying the
position of assistant head luna at Wal
pahu Plantation.
Mcleod is quite an athlete and pos
sesses strength of no mean order.
While away he competed at an athletic
meeting at his home and won the 10
pound shot put with the very good dis
tance of 80 feet 6 inches.
He put the 4-pound shot ~ feet 4
inches.
A year or so ago. 1t will be remem-
bered. Mcleod won a sin liar event
against all comers at Waimea. Kauai.
He did some boxing while on his va
cation. making a creditable showing
when he put the gloves on.
Mcleod used to be a pupil of Jimmy

Attorney, replied. He argued that the
Legislature created the term as a
whole. fixing its limits of time, and
that the omission of the court to do
business on any day within the
Set period-no matter IL 1t was the
opening day-could not invalidate the
term. Authorities were quoted to show
that legal holidays were non-judicial
days like Sundays, one being case
where the filing of exceptions by
clerk on a legal holiday was held
nullity.
H. C Middleditch contributed to the
argument against the existence of the
term, and Mr.. Milverton made clos
ing reply.
AT the close of argument the matter
was taken under consideration.
Then the civil case of II. l.. Murray
VS.. ID. H. Lewis was called for argu
ment on the question raised by counsel
for defendant, of the validity of the
jury panel, which Judge De Bot had
reserved.
w. L. Stanley of Holmes & Stanley
and A. Perry, for the defendant, argued
that the drawing of the jury had been
illegal as not complying with the
amended jury law of 1905. c. f. Glenn
ons of Thompson & Clemons and Mr..
Milverton replied.
without leaving the bench the court
held consultation, when the Chief
Justice announced it's decision that the
jury had been legally drawn.
The jury was drawn, 1t may be stat
ed, under the law as 1t existed prior to
the amendment of 1905. Jury lists from
which to draw juries for this year were
made last year and. according to the
decision just rendered, hold good to the
end OF this year.

fair condition. He had lifted the safety
valve on boiler b by hand at Honolulu
just prior to the trip TO San Diego.
He stated that no reliance had been
placed by the engineering room on the
sentinel valves. He knew by observa-
tlon that the valves on boilers c and
D had been overhauled in February or
March of the present year. Most of
wheelers testimony. which was dis
tlnctly favorable to the defense, was
elected on cross-examination.
MORE TECHNICAL EVIDENCE.
John O'Hana was the last witness
called by the prosecution. He testified
that he had not heard the safety valve
of boiler b blow off for over eighteen
months, but stated that that was no
reason why the valve might not be in
gocd working order. He testified that
tho lifting gear would not work and
tha. he had never seen any of the
safety valves lifted. He could. not tes-
tify of his own knowledge whether the
valve on b boiler was working or not.
According to this witness on cross
examination the sentinel valves had
not been working since the Benning-
ton went into commission.
The trial is to be resumed at 10
O'Clock this morning.
VALLEJO. September 90. To-day
after a heated debate between counsel
the court allowed the admission In
evidence of blue prints of the Ben
nington's engines made, 16 years ago.
According to the defense these prints
are of no account owing to innumer-
able changes in the engines during a
long period of time. The witnesses
called upon today were even less ef-
fective for the prosecution than any
of those called before.
