Hoffman
Skipped
On Korea
NEEDED WITNESS LEFT THE
ISLANDS AND LINDSAY ORDERS
AN INSTRUCTED VERDICT.

Fifteen minutes before the Korea left
yesterday afternoon Victor Hoffman
FASTENED aboard with his baggage,
though he was relied on to be in Judge
Lindsay's court this morning for the
case of the Western Iron Works VS..
Victor Hoffman and the Honolulu
Brewing Company, the latter being the
real defendant. 1t was expected that
the trial would take a couple of weeks
and Hoffman was in consultation with
his attorneys, J. w. Cathcart and r. D.
Mead, nearly all of yesterday. He ap-
pears to have left their offices and inn
mediately made for the steamer. The
attorneys asked for a continuance this
morning, claiming that it was impossi-
BILE to proceed without him, but the
continuance was denied and Jury was
drawn. The plaintiffs declined to pro-
ceed and on the courts instruction the
jury found for defendants without
leaving the box.
The suit was to enforce a mechanics
lien for $12,S74S7, and it was filed in
1901. 1t had been specially set for to-
day, but the attorneys for the plain
tiff were astonished this morning to
find that the principal witness had
skipped the country. Both Cathcart
and Mead told the court he had prom
ised to remain, and had been with them
consulting about the case most of yes
! terday.
W. A. Kinney, who appeared for de-
PENDANTS, claimed that Hoffman should
/ have been placed under subpoena, so
that his departure would have been a
contempt, 1t appeared that Hoffman
had left behind instructions for Cath
cart to proceed with another suit foi
him, and Kinney said that if sub
! poena had been issued Hoffman coulC
have been punished when he came
back. He said that Hoffman had de.
liberately committed contempt any,
how.
Judge Lindsay declined the continu
ance and ordered the trial to proceed
The following jurors were drawn anC
sworn to try the case l.. H. Dee ]

AS soon as the jury was sworn Cath
cart announced that he could not pro
ceed to offer evidence. The court ac
cordingly told the jury to return a yer
dict for defendant, and this was done
An appeal will be taken.

RUSSIANS LAND

The report of the appraisers of the
land on which it is proposed to settle
Russians, on Kauai, was presented to
Land Commissioner Pratt this after
noon, and will be turned over to the
governor tomorrow. 1t is understood
that the valuation adopted is less than
$40 per acre. The appraisers report
may go into the question of how the
land shall be handled by the govern
ment, as there is said to be objection
to allowing the Russians to secure title
in fee, on the ground that after get
ting such titles they would be able to
sell out at several hundred times the
amount they would pay for it.

This has been a disastrous season

exists regarding the fertilizer fleet. No
less than three of the fertilizer cargoes

are fully dozen lawyers present in
the city today from Chicago looking
after the interests of the firms involv-
ed In the alleged trust. No informa-
tion could be had here from the gov
ernment authorities but from other
sources It was learned that seven or
eight witnesses had already been be-
fore the grand jury and given testi-
mony, as to their knowledge of the
working Of the beef trust at this
I shipping point. Subpoenas have been
issued to score or more of men who

GRANT men
Claim They viii Control Alliance
Contingent In Central Committee.

Alliance, O., March 21.-It is rum
ored that the supporters of James J.
Grant for congress are already wag-
ing a hard campaign for control Of
the Alliance contingent in the Repub-
lican central committee. 1t was
stated Tuesday by a prominent Re-
publicen that the Grant men had a
candidate for the committee in every
precinct in the city and that they
expected to carry the day when the
time comes to elect members to the
committee.
The Clark men, however, take o
very different view of the situation.
Two of the most prominent Republl-
cans of Alliance were seen Tuesday
afternoon and in regard to the mattel
they said that in their opinion the
work of the Grant forces was alto
gether premature. They have ex-
treme confidence that all Clark men
will be elected to the committee and
do not think it necessary to exert
themselves here at this carly date.
