an Legion opened here this morning.
Owing to the fact that many Of the vet
Grams had gone to Denver, Colo, TO at.
tend the national encampment Of the
Grand Army Of the Republic, and had
not yet returned, the attendance at the
opening was not as large as expected,
but it is hoped that many Of the East.
ern delegates will return from Denver
in time to arrive here tomorrow or the
day after. The date Of the parade has
not yet been definitely set, as the ofli-
cials desire TO make a good showing,
and want TO wait until additional nom.
bors arrive. Tomorrow a reception and
smoker will be given to the delegates by
the officers and men of the First Regi-
ment, N. G. d. II will be held at the
armory, which has been beautifully dec
GRATED for the occasion. The city is in
holiday attire, and the hotels are crowd
ed with delegates and visitors from all
parts Of the country. The question Of
tho election Of a national commander
for the coming year is causing consid-
erable speculation. The friends Of Gen.
eral William A. Reilly, of Wilmington,
are very active, and hope to be able to
secure his election.

admissions which have raised a Ques-
ton of veracity between himself and
Commissioner Cooper, who has declar-
ed that Stewart did not consult him
with reference to the alterations that
Stewart admitted making. Whereas,
Stewart had said he had consulted
Cooper lin general way" about them.
Stewart said that as there was no
reporter for the Advertiser present at
the meeting, then the report for this
paper must have been written by some
member of the committee, or some 9TH
er person who was present. Which, by
the way is perhaps an entirely uncon-
scious tribute to the accuracy of the
report.
Stewart said great deal more in the
same strain, the burden of his talk
being that it was u plot TO ruin him.
He fyelt upon this and saying marvel
lousy little about the changes that
had been made in the bill, as Chairman
Holstein had read it from his copy.
1t was at this point, after he had con-
Guided, and just before rhe adjourn
ment. that Senator Dowsert offered his
resolution, asking that the committee
be allowed TO take up other bills. The
Senator made a very clear presenta-
ton of the condition in which matters
had been left, not only by the terms of
the resolution limiting the functions of
the committee to considera ton of the
one bill, but by reason of the alteration
that had been admittedly made in the
provisions of the bill after il had been
given into the hands of the committee.
There is no provision in. this bill for
raising revenue said Senator DoWsett,
and very material change has been
made, it is said to make it conform
to a financial bill introduced into the
Senate subsequently to the introduce
ton of this bill. This has not left me
with a great deal of confidence in this
measure. Indeed, L may say that
have lost confidence in it. Ard I think
that this committee should have wider
powers
The resolution to make a partial re-
port. asking for time and for enlarged
powers on Monday was adopted, and
the committee adjourned.

Honolulu T. H., March 4, 1903.
Gentlemen: 1t gives me great pleas
ure to inform you that the recent
ly, satisfactorily and permanently adj
justed. 1t is regrettable, however, that
so much publicity should have been
given to this matter before the results
had been reached.
The principal result arrived at
through this controversy is that the
society has decided upon its complete
naturalization, through a resolution
unanimously adopted by it's Board of
Directors. For the purpose of carry
ing out this project in the interests of
the policy holders, the following prom
inent and well known gentlemen have
been appointed as a committee:
Valentine P. Snyder, James H. Hyde.
Cornelius N Bliss, James w. Alexand-
Chauncey NJ. Depew.
The present movement has been for
the purpose of preserving through all
future time the strength and prosper
ity of the society, and removes, in the
opinion of many of its friends, the only
obstacle in the way of its constant
progress This naturalization plan.
which has been successfully adopted
by the society, and which has been on
the tapis for some time, should give a
tremendous impetus to the business of
the society in the future.

ARE GEARS LATEST
JUDGMENTS VALID?

Judge Gears decision, previously an
of Territory of Hawaii VS.. Cotton
Bros, in which a verdict of $4,000 for
plaintiff was returned, has been re-
ceived by mail. 1t is found that the
plaintiff did not make it's case depend
on the removal of the Government
dredge from Honolulu harbor, but on
the negligence of the lessees of the
dredge in mooring it unsafely at the
month of Pearl harbor. The conclu-
sion reads:
The evidence in this case fails to
show any failure on the part of the
defendants to do what an ordinarily
prudent person would have done I'M
der the same circumstances, or the do
ing of what such a person would not
have done. 1t seems to me that the
court erred in failing and refusing to
instruct the jury to return verdict
for the defendants, and for this reason
a new trial should be ordered"
Judge Gears decision in the case OF
Eliza j. Holt VS. Albert Christian,
annulment of marriage, received by
mail following the cabled announce
ment reads thus:
In this case it seems to me that the
plaintiff has not made out such a case
as under the authorities is required
to be. made out in order to entitle he1
to a decree annulling the marriage be-
tween herself and the defendant. While
it seems to me that it perhaps would
have been much better for the plain
tiff never to have married and the
conduct of the defendant III his wooine
and subsequent marriage is not to be
commended but should on the con-
trary be severely criticised, neverthe-
less the plaintiff has, not shown such
a case of incompetency as to justify
the court in annulling the marriage.
For this reason a judgment should be
entered for the defendant
A note to Clerk Sims from Judge
Gear asks him to file the foregoing
decisions as quickly as possible, eX-
pressing the hope that he would be III
