THE ROBINSON CASE
WILL Be DECIDED IN
WASHING TON TODAY

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 22, 8 :28 Pm. q
---Attorney General Moody is personally :
examining Judge Robinson's reputation. q
Appointment expected tomorrow.
ERNEST G. WALKER. 3
MATTER TAKEN OUT OF
GOVERNOR CARRIERS HANDS

Governor Carter was not in his office
yesterday afternoon, but it is known
that he has received no word from
Washington relative to the appoint
ment of a Circuit Judge in succession
to Robinson, whose term is expired.
1t is not probable, however. that the
Governor would have had anything to
say upon the matter, even if he had
been in his office. 1t has been taken
out of his hands by the determination
expressed by the President and Attor
ney-General Moody to investigate.
This determination to investigate. of
course, does not mean the reappoint-
ment of Judge Robinson. although a
great many attorneys in town yester
day seemed to think that it did. Meth
er, for that matter, does it mean that
the Carter-Roosevelt combination has
been broken. Of course, if Anderson
is not appointed and Robinson is, fol-
lowing an investigation, then Governor
Carter might consider that he was not
sustained by the President, and there
fore a vacancy in the gubernatorial
office could well be expected to fol-
low
THE status of the matter, so far as
I can see," said one well known at
torney yesterday, lis about thus:
has made any charges against
anybody at Washington. The Gov
arnOr, however, in withdrawing his en-
dorsement of Robinson, has stated
of the matter to the Pres
ident, refusing at the same time to
stand for what happened on that bot
tie of Scotch night while distinctly |
making no charges.
'Then Senator Perkins of California, |
receiving Robinson's protest against /
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1906-01-23

this kind of treatment, has gone to the
President and possibly to the Attorney
General and said his say in behalf of
ms friend. Added to this, have come
cablegrams from the Bar Association
and from Bishop Libert and from va
rious other persons, enough to show
the President that there is inharmony
down here. Roosevelt is too much a
politician and too good politician not
to pay heed to public clamor, and SO
has said to the Attorney General:
We will look into that matter a
little out at Hawaii, and see what the
fuss is all about
And, after it has been looked into,
I'm here to tell you that the chances
are just about a hundred to one that
the Governor will be sustained The
Bystander sized it up pretty accurate
ly, 1 think. We all like Carter and
we all like Robinson but when it comes
to a question as to whether Robinson
shall be sustained or whether Carter
shall be, the President will be found
to stand with the Governor. And that
is about all there is to it,
The friends of Judge Robinson were
busy congratulating him all day yes
terday. But, as to the investigation,
nobody here seemed to have a very
clear idea as to how it would be con-
Quoted, or who would be appointed to
or what would be investi-
gated after the appointment was made.
This matter is cleared up, however,
by the Advertisers cablegram from
its Washington correspondent. The in
vestigation is being made in Washing
ton, by the Attorney-G General himself,
However it is simply pure corn cyrup,
and is clearly to be a short one.

| I'm twenty years from the arrival
| of the missionaries, the Hawaiians had
| attained magma charta and religious
liberty. 1t took our own people five
hundred years from the arrival Of the
missionaries to attain magma charta,
and another five hundred to reach re-
hgious liberty said Judge Frear in
an address last night delivered before
the Hawaiian Historical Society.
1t was the annual meeting of the So
ciety, and President w. D. Alexander
presided. Before the meeting of the
society proper there was directors
meeting from which it was reported,
after the society had been called to or
der, that favorable consideration had
been given to the names of a number
of applicants for membership. These,
by vote, were all elected.
The directors also reported favorably
on a proposition to issue certificates of
membership, which proposition excited
some discussion as the members were
all annual members, there being none
chosen for life although the constitu- !!
tion provided for life memberships. !
Finally, on motion of DR.. Emerson, the |
matter was referred to a committee
of the president, secretary
and treasurer, with power to act.
Corresponding Secretary w. a. Bryan
then read his annual report, which COM
mented upon the awakened interest be-
ing taken in matters historical in the
Islands, approved of the appointment
and work of the Archives Commission,
and recommended the transfer of va1u-
able private collection of pamphlets

THE SCRAP
At WA|PAHU
Armorer EIvin Gives His
Version Of the
Affair.

c. H. Elvin, the police station armor-
er, is no longer a member of the force,
having resigned yesterday. He had an
interview with Sheriff Brown last night
and asked that Officers Leslie and Wills
apologize to him for the Waipahu in
cident, the outcome of which was that
Elvin was sent to Honolulu in hand
cuffs. The sheriff said that this was
out of the question and Elvin quit.
The ex-armorer thinks that he has
been hardly dealt with in the matter
and that he is the victim of politics
His version of the matter is as fol-
lows:

of about 200 Japs came to the planta-

The Waipahu strike is over and all
hands viii return to work this morning.
While certain concessions have been
made bv the directors of the Oahu
Sugar Company, they are as whole
of minor import compared with the
original demands of the strikers, which
have, in the majority of cases, been re-
fused. The plantation may be said to
have won the strike and by far the
greatest loss occasioned by the shut
down has resulted to the japanese
themselves. The men were anxious
enough to go to work but the strike
leaders urged them to obtain certain
concessions from the management,
however small, in order that they
might have the satisfaction of saying
thar the plantation had acceded tol
some of their demands. On Sunday
uioht a list of minor demands was
drawn up. the men promising to return
to work if these claims were favorably
considered The directors of the plan
tation were able to grant these del
mands without any great sacrifice on
their part and acted accordingly, with
the result that the strike was declared
off yesterday.
The plantation suffered no loss OF !
any consequence by the untoward
events of the past week and little II !
any damage was sustained by the cane. j
The frequent showers helped the plan
tation inestimably in the latter connec-
ton. Where the plantation will be out
of pocket by the strike will be in the
expenses entaiIed by the visit OF the
police and the extra wages granted the
Chinese, Korean and native laborers to
