CREW JUMPED

so INSTEAD OF BEING ABLE TO
GET AWAY EARLY THIS MORN
ING VESSEL HAD TO WAIT.

Captain Peterson of the bark Louis
lana walked up this morning and found
himself like Old Mother Hubbard when
she went to the cupboard to give her
poor dog a bone. She found there was
nothing in the cupboard.
Last night when Captain Peterson
retired to his berth 1t was with a feel
ing of satisfaction for he had a COM
plete crew aboard and he expected to
get away today for Newcastle whittier
he is bound for a load of coal for this
port. But to his CONSERVATION he found
nobody but the End mate this morning.
Everybody else had skipped out. The
details of the cause of the men de-
parting are unnecessary. When sail
ors have drawn 20 days advance money
that is enough reason for them to pre-
fer to remain ashore than to stay
aboard a ship so the Louisiana found
herself minus a crew.
Captain Peterson began hunting
around this morning for a new crew.
His vessel has been delayed several
days in port by complication of
events over which he had no control,
from the subpoenas from the U. $.
Commissioner for members of the crew
to subpoenas from saloons for the crew
to gather in convivial company.

morning on a warrant charging him
with maintaining and conducting a
gambling game. Captain of Police A.
Mossman swore to the complaint. 1t
was Mossman in fact, who worked up
the evidence against Moore and sue
ceeded in securing what would seem to
be a good case, although the gambling
which is alleged to have been permit"
ted in the place was of rather socia-
BILE character instead of the high stake
crap games that the Japanese testified
in the previous case against Moore had
been played in Moore's King street
The following are to be subpoenaed

According to the evidence secured by

DEVAUCHELLE
A STAR WITNESS
HE OCCUPIED THE STAND ONCE
MORE TODAY IN THE ALLEGED
KAKAAKO GAMBLING CASE.

Again today did ex-Policeman Devau-
chene occupy the stand in the police
court.
The case was that of the Territory of
Hawaii against Loeloe and Alex Mich
olas, charged with running a gaming
house. County Attorney Douthitt con-
Quoted the prosecution and Attorney
John Cathcart was for the defence.
H. NJ. Ayres, a reporter of the Adver-
tiser was the first witness. He stated
that on the evening of October p he
had been at the house occupied by the
defendants near the Territory's stables
in Eakaako. He had looked in and had
seen the two defendants counting mon
ey. He saw a large amount of money
in silver, about $40 or 500.
Devauchelle corroborated this evil
dence. He said that he had gone in
company with Ayres and man named
James Crane, a brother of an employe
on the Advertiser.
Attorney Cathcart put Devauchelle
through a close cross-examination ques-
tioning and elected the information
that he was man of practically inde-
pendent means. He has saloon on
Molokai, land with fishing rights and
had scrubbed out a schooner last week.
He had never told anyone that the Ad-
vertiser had paid him SIS for his work
as spy, he said.
The prosecution had not concluded its
case when the court rose for noon re-
cess.

In each of the four cases the charge
is practically the same. The defend
ants are alleged to have attempted to

felt ten dollar bills of the issue of the

off the transport here, and he is un-
derstood to have made revelations
which formed "a large part Of the evil
dence on which the inducements were
brought.
Two other indictments were returned
by the jury for assaults on the high
seas. Herbert E. Jones and Joseph
Boyd, first and second mates of the
Manga Reva, are charged with having
assaulted two seamen, Harry Kea and
