DR.. JORDAN EXPLAINS
THE Denver Interview

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Jan. 3.
DR.. Jordan returned to the campus
from his Eastern trip this evening, and
was met upon his arrival by the repre-
sentatives of the San Francisco morn
ing papers. Upon being questioned in
regard to the muchdiscussed Denver in
terview, he gave out the following
signed statement:
"The Denver report in the Bulletin

RANGE
JUDGMENT

Judge Gears "long range decision -
was the occasion of something like
deadlock in the suit Of the Territory Of
Hawaii against Cation Bros. 4 Co. yes.
terdny-but more incidentally than i'm.
mediately, as the specific point now in
issue related to forms OF pleading.
lt will be remembered that Judge
Gear, shortly before his term Of Office
expired. cabled a decision from San
Francisco granting a new trial, the
original trial having resulted in a yer.
dict for the Territory for the value of
a dredge lost while under lease to the
Cations. Judge Lindsay, on succeeding
Gear, made an order TO enter Gears
cabled decision for new trial. A bill
Of exceptions to this order was entered
by the Government. Judge Lindsay
passed on the exceptions, sustaining
some and denying others. and giving
the plaintiff ten days in which to
amend the bill.
No amendment was fled and the mat
ter came up now on a motion by plain
tiff for settlement of the bill of ex
ceptions. This motion Judge Lindsay
denied, leaving the Governments ap-
peal from the granting of a new trial,
in the air.
Attorney General Peters and Deputy
Milverton represented the plaintiff,
and Messrs Kinney and Derby the de-
fendant.

Porto Ricans are rapidly filling up
the gap in cases of violations of Unit
ed States social laws, which has ex
listed since the general cleaning up of
the Ten Dollar Club" series wherein
the Japanese held the center of the
stage.
Yesterday the committal the pre-
vious day of a Porto Rican woman for
bigamy was reported and the same
morning Commissioner Mailing, upon
due examination, committed another
to the grand jury for the same Of
fense. This was Adela Lozados alias
Adela Sing. The information filed by
District Attorney Breckons was to the
effect that on March s, 1908, Adela
married Sam Sing, Chinese, and that
while he was still living, on March IA,
1905, she married George w. Reese.
Bail in these cases is $1,000 for each,
which practically means that the ac-
cused will rest in Jail until their trials.
Another committal in a similar class
of offense made yesterday was that
of Joe Revara for unlawful inter-
course with Providencio Andino. wife
of Gregorio Andino.

THE ONLY COUGH MEDICINE
FREE FROM POISON.

The Pharmacy Board of New South

of all the cough medicines that were
sold on the market. Out of the entire
list they found only one that they
declared was entirely free from all
poisons. This exception was Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy, which proves 1t
to be the safest and best that can be
had. 1t is especially recommended for
coughs, colds, Group and whooping
cough and may be given to the little
ones with absolute security. For sale

Irene All On was granted a divorce,
with costs but not alimony, against All
On, the former Chinese policeman, by
Judge Lindsay yesterday. E. A.
Douthitt appeared for the woman and
S. F. Chillingworth for the man.
Gross cruelty and non-support were
the grounds made out. Mrs. All On
told a pitiful story of abuse at her
husbands hands. Her life had been
threatened at different times with a
revolver and a hatchet. She had been
assaulted with such weapons of peace
as an opium pipe, a currycomb and a
corkscrew.
Ah on made a poor mouth to ward
off an order of alimony, saying it had
cost him $3.50 to defend himself from
prosecution for perjury. The money
came from a deposit of $4,000 Mex. in
China, of a parity with but $500 Amer
ican gold. Ah On said he smoked
opium when he could afford it, but un-
der his reduced circumstances he was
now content to eat the drug. This
mode of consumption made ten cents
worth of opium last a month.
Respondent denied that he support
ed another woman but accused his
wife of living at times with Antoine
Manuel, the messenger of the Federal
court. This caused the calling
of Mrs. All On and Manuel, both of
! whom testified that there was no truth
in the accusation.

NEW Time
SAVING PLAN

II have decided to adopt new sys-
tenn with regard#b the setting of cases
for trial." Judge De Bolt said to an
Advertiser reporter yesterday.
This is to abandon the calling of
the calendar. The old system of call
ing the calendar on given days has
taken great deal of time. Not only
that, but the process in one court has
interfered seriously with business in
other courts. So many attorneys have
to attend the calling of the calendar
before one judge that business Is de-
layed before other judges.
Now, instead of calling the calen-
dar, / propose to take up cases in the
order in which they appear upon the
printed calendar for the term. Attor-
neys interested in cases near the top
will be expected to appear in time
and, If they are not ready, present mo-
tions for continuance to stated dates
airy pleadings they intend making.
las far as possible. three or four
days notice will be given to attorneys
of the probable time at which cases
they are retained in will be reached.
Cases where the parties are not ready
will, unless otherwise arranged, go in
their order to the foot of the calen-
dar.
Sometimes, under the old way, at
torneys at the calling of the calendar
would fight for delay, evidently in
some instances not wanting the cases
tried at all that term. AS the calen-
dar is always printed some days in
advance of the opening of the term
there will be no occasion for any COM
plaint of surprise IN taking up cases
in their order without ceremony.
II believe the new plan will save a
great deal of time and expedite the
business of the court. At least in
tend to give 1t a trial"

INDEPENDENT
STEAMSHIPS

George W. Smith was reelected yes
terday rs president of the Merchants
Association The other officers are
Robert cation, vice-president; +. III.
Paris, secretary; w. W. Harris, treas
urer.
During the meeting Of the directors
of the association, j. A. McCandless,
who went TO the Coast several weeks
ago to look up the prospect Of getting
"a steamer 10 put on the Honolulu-San
Francisco run, to be owned by local
capital, gave some data concerning the
results of his trip. lie stated that he
had received a request from mainland
promoters who are desirous of putting
on couple of steamers. asking him to
ascertain the views of local people rel
ative to their proposition.
Mr.. McCandless Informed the direc-
tors that there were two combinations
at work on the project on the main
land, Independent of the recently pro-
posed Seattle-H Honolulu line, and they
were in earnest. Their proposition, of
course, depended largely on whether
they could get freight business from
the Islands. Mr.. McCandless said that
the local people were not asked to
subscribe to stock. Should freight con-
tracts offer the mainland promoters
were ready to commence building
steamers, or at least one to start with.
A steamer of the kind proposed could
make the trip in five.and-a-half days
and could carry $50 passengers.
The Merchants Association dis
cussed the matter after Mr.. McCand
less withdrew. There was q general
feeling that the time was ripe for the
merchants to make contracts of the
kind.
President Smith at length appointed
as a special committee, Messrs. w. F.
Dillingham;, A. Gartley and E. H. Paris
to sound the business community on the
proposition.
Mr.. McCandless says it is now up to
Honolulu to take up or discard the
proposition. He says that the sugar
men will surely furnish the freight to
make the project go.

CROCKETT
REFINERY

The Chronicle of December 30 SAYS:
new era OF prosperity will dawn
upon California and its beneficent
ELECTS VIII be felt throughout tho
Pacific Coast beginning In the month
OF March OF the coming year. A great
and Important industry is to be in
augurated at that time at Crockett.
Contra Costa county. Cal, when
the machinery OF the large refinery OF
the California and Hawaiian Sugar
Refining Company will be set in mo-
tion. The site occupied by the refinery
at Crockett is an ideal location on the
banks of the straits Of Carquinez and
alongside the Southern Pacific Com
pany's tracks, affording the company
unequaled shipping facilities. both by
rail and water, to all parts of the
globe, as well as for receiving ma
terial from ship and car which may
deliver freight at the door of the re-
hnery The location of this great in
dustry will be of incalculable bene-
fit to the people of Contra Costa
and Alameda counties, as 1t will en-
ploy hundreds of persons living in the
vicinity, and will disburse vast sums
for labor and other commodities. its
benefits to the community at large are
much farther reaching than those that
will accrue to the people of its i'm
mediate vicinity.
The company has secured contracts
FOR term of years by which IL con-
trolls over S2 per cent. of the island
output of sugar, and is thus assured
of an inexhaustible supply of pure
cane sugar for many years to come.
These exceptional facilities enable the
refinery to compete effectively for the
trade of the Pacific Coast, and 1t well
behooves wholesale and retail dealers
of the Pacific states and territories to.
cooperate with the company, in order
to encourage wholesome competition
and enjoy the benefits which must of
necessity accrue to themselves. The
coterie of Hawaiian planters and their
associates in San Francisco, while the
management of the company and the,
administration of it's business are in
