A NAME
NOT HER OWN
WOMAN GETS INTO SERIOUS
ANOTHER ONE ON A DEED.

As the result of a little business trans
action conducted by Napua O) and
Carrie Kahawaiolaa by which Gilbert
J. Waller of this city was deluded into
parting with $50, the two first men
toned are at present under arrest
charged with gross cheat.
The story of their alleged offence runs
to the effect that on July 2S, 1898 Ma
qua HALL and his sister Kahololio Hail
then residents of Lahaina mortgaged a
piece of land that they owned in La
haina TO Waller $3.50. The money
having been secured nothing i'm the way
of principal or interest was ever paid
and early this year Waller drew HALLS
attention to the fact. Hall said that
he could pay nothing and it was sug-
gested that he had better sell the pro-
perty outright. The land is of little
value and it was finally agreed that
Waller should pay $50 more and re-
ceive a deed for the land on which he
could, of course, have foreclosed. He
did not wish to press the people and so
or March IA last HALL, accompanied by
woman whom he said was his sister,
signed deed transferring their right,
title and interest to Waller. The wo-
man signed the name "Kahololio Haili''
to the papers and the $50 was paid
over. Nearly seven years had elapsed
since the mortgage had been executed
and nobody remembered the woman.
A short time since the real Kahololio
HALL appeared on the scene and
stated that she had not signed the deed
She certainly was not the woman who
had signed it so the matter was hand
ed over to County Attorney Douthitt
for investigation. HALL was arrested
and after a short time admitted the
fraud. The woman who had signed his
sisters name was Carrie Kahawaioloa
Carrie when arrested admitted that
she had done so but placed the blame
on the man, who. she said, had told
her to sign the name. She and Hail
are intimate.
The woman could of course be held
both for perjury and forgery if the
story can be substantiated but as she
was seemingly the tool of the man the
charge Of gross cheat was placed
against both.
The case against Napua was called
in the police court this morning ant
on his request was continued unit
August 2. The woman will appear to
morrow to answer a charge of gross
cheat.

Though the United States is losing

lain, Il am glad to see the reduction,
for it means less violation of the laws,
and l am glad to see the Territory get
the revenue. Undoubtedly the provi-
sion of the new law making a special
tax receipt evidence of sale of liquor
has had an effect.
THE state of affairs 1 would like TO
see would be having everyone who
pay our special tax pay a Territorial
license, though as our law probably
reaches further than the local law, this
is scarcely to be expected. That our
number approaches more nearly to the
Territorial number than formerly
shows that there is less violation of the
Territorial law"
Since the new law went into effect
81 retail liquor licenses have been is
sued on the Island of Oahu alone. A
peculiar feature OF the laws operations
is the taking out of such licenses by
firms like II. Hackfeld & Company
which are now in position to sell
drinks at a bar if they want to. They
do not do so, but need the retail license
in order to be able to fill small orders.
There have been 80 third-cass IL
censes. 40 fifth-class and 12S fourth
class issued under the new law. repre-
senting a revenue of SS7 400 for the
Territory. This year some of this is
counterbalanced by advance payments
on old licenses, which are deducted
when new licenses are paid for
The third-class licenses are for
wholesalers. There are 10 of these on

on Kauai. OF the fifth class, allowing

five gallons there are IS on Oahu, on
Maui and on MolOkai. The fourth
class, or retail, are 81 on Oahu, 20 on
Hawaii 10 on Maui, s on Kauai and l
on Molokai
On all the islands licenses have been
taken out by japanese and Chinese
stores which have always sold liquor
on the quiet in the past.
In the new law it is declared that the
payment of the federal special tax for
liquor-selling shall be competent evil
dence" of the sale of liquor by the
party paying such tax. II is this pro-
vision which has done much to bring
about the reduction in the number T
persons paying the special tax. An
other provision of the new law which
is believed to have done much to stop
the Illicit business is that which makes
a buyer crimnally responsible as well
as a seller.

The three circuit judges of this CIR
cult are to have a conference with At
torney General Andrews tomorrow
morning to discuss legal difficulty
which has been discovered in connec-
ton with the new jury law, which may
make it impossible to get a trial or
grand jury for the coming term of
court. The Legislature in the recent
session amended the jury law in some
respect and it is claimed by some that
it invalidated the present jury list
without making any provision for
new list until next January.
Under the old law a jury list was
made up last December for the present
year. The new law which went into
effect last April provides for two lists
one for Grand jurors and one for trial
jurors, to be made up after December
10 each year, for the following calendar
year. The question that has been raised
is as to whether this invalidates the
existing list, which was drawn last
December. If it does, none of the

SHORE YESTERDAY MORNING.

Had It not been for the action of
some japanese in a sampan going to
the assistance Of Franklin Rowland,
brother of Hastings Rowland, there
would probably have been a tragedy in
the surf off Niu yesterday morning.
Franklin Howand is living out at Niu
for the summer. He went rowing yes
terday morning in a boat. The seams
in the craft opened up when he was
out by the edge of the reef and the
boat soon filled with water.
Rowland thought he could swim
ashore, for he realized that it was
useless to attempt to haul the boat back
to shore, so he abandoned the boat
and struck out for the beach He be-
came exhausted and it is doubtful if
he could have made his way i'm to
shallow water out of the breakers
Some japanese happened to see his
plight and went over to his assistance
in time to save him from sinking.
