Where was Judge Gear when he
wrote the decision he cabled from San
Francisco in the case of the Territory
against Cotton Bros, granting a new
trial? The question has suddenly come
10 the front in a peculiar way in con-
nection with the efforts of the Terri
tory to appeal Everyone except the
court knows that Gear was in San
Francisco, but the court doesn't know
anything that isn't in the record and
the court holds that this is not in the
record, hence it left the Territory
stranded this morning with only a
doubtful chance of appeal.
Gears decision reversed a verdict of
$4,000 in favor of the Territory, for
damages for the loss of the dredger
loaned to Cotton Bros. for the dredg-
ing of Pearl Harbor channel The case
was tried before Gear. - motion for a
new trial was argued before him, and
on the last day of his term he cabled
his ruling granting it, at the same
time mailing a written opinion of
great length. The point was raised
that his decision given in San Fran
cisco was illegal, but Lindsay as his
successor signed a formal order as
moved for. The trouble now is over
the Territorys bill of exceptions.
Kinney, McClanahan & Cooper OBJ
jected to the bill Of exceptions, contest
ing the statement therein contained
that the Gear decision was given in
San Francisco, and claiming that no
such showing appeared in the record.
Judge Lindsay gave a decision sustain
ing the objections and allowing" the
Territory ten days in which to amend

and South America. Some of the
steamers will also discharge into a
pipe line at Panama, by means Of
which the oil will be piped across the
isthmus, run into steamers on the
other side, and delivered to all points
along the Atlantic seaboard, the cast
coast of South America, or to Eu-
rope. Along the Atlantic Coast there
are many independent refineries whose
capacity would be increased many
times were they confident of unfailing
supply of refining crude, and to take
care of this demand the Union Oil
Company of California proposes to de-
liver its high-gravity California r.
filming crude in the manner described.
At Oleum, Contra Costa county, Cal,
the company is rapidly pushing the
work of increasing the capacity of it's
Immense refining plant. All classes of
refined oils, kerosene gasoline ,lubri-
eating and engine distillates will be
manufactured on a gigantic scale.
Within the past few years a large mar
ket for refined oils has been opened
,in China and Japan, as we'll as New
Zealand and Australia, and the COM
pany will go after this trade vigorous
ly. Owing to the labor troubles and
riots at Baku, and the consequent fail
ure of the Russian Oil companies to
supply their share of the Oriental
trade, there has been, and promises to
continue, a heavily increased call for
American oils, and the Union Oil Com
pany of California will be in position
to take advantage of this opportunity.
-.
additional vessels especially for the
refined Oil business, and besides cater
! ing to the local market, will ship to
South American points of consumption
to England, France, Germany. Spain,
! South Africa-tO wherever there is a
demand.
+ While the company is reaching out
for new business and opening up fresh
markets, constructing new tank steam
ers, increasing it's refining capacity
and developing it's vast oil territory, it
! is not neglecting the local market, and
! is regularly and constantly improving
! it service and facilities for taking
care of local consumers, a large share

HOUSE
FOR HARRY LEWIS
TRYING TO AR
RANGE FOR AN EARLY OC-
CUPANCY OF KUNsT PROPERTY.

If arrangements can be made with
ton, the County of Oahu will rent his
residence at Waikiki and will place it
at the disposal of Harry Lewis who at
present occupies the Kunst residence.
Tie object of this is of course to en-
able the County to obtain possession Of
the Kunst beach property in it's en-
tlrety at as early a date as possible.
1t will be remembered that when
the agreement to take over the properly
was made, it was with the complete
understanding that Lewis had a year s
tenancy on his portion of the lot and
that Supervisors Lucas and Adams
were appointed to call on him and see
what arrangements satisfactory to him
could be made.
They called on him this morning and
asked him If it would be convenient
for him to take the Hatch property
for a year and upon receiving his as
surances in the affirmative decided to
cable Judge Hatch at once.
Il would not like II to be thought
that 1 want the County to pay my
rent" said Lewis at noon today but

the place and as lam willing to get
out just i'm order to oblige the public
think that should at least be pro-
vided for for the year Of my lease that
remains, I have mosquito PROCEED the
place, renewed the plumbing, moved
my furniture, installed my servants
and in fact have everything ready for
my family. 1 think I am a public
spirited citizen however and 1 fully
realize that the taking over of the
property by the county as an addition
to the park is one of the best moves
ever made. wish to aid the project
in every way.
II think that the county's new ac-
QUESTION is the best place along the
beach. There is one fine channel
blasted out now and the remainder Of
the coral can be easily removed. The

CEREMONY BROCK IS OPENING ANOTHER CAM
EDUCATION PRO SOLUTIONS.

United States Marshal Winter this
morning arrested Maria Providentia
Matino, a Porto Rican woman, on a
charge of violation of the Edmunds
act, the charge consisting of an allega-
ton sworn to by District Attorney
Breckons that she had two husbands.
The arrest is the second Porto Rican
one of the kind here recently and it
is likely to be followed by others.

Porto Ricans, it appears, have de-
veloped a tendency to add bigamy to
their other numerous methods of keep
ing in the eyes of the police and fed
eral authorities. In a third case now
under investigation a Porto Rican wo-
man is alleged to have cody contracted
a marriage in spite of the fact that she
had husband living. The matter
has been placed before Breckons with
the probable result of an arrest.

the bill of exceptions. But the Terri
tory objected to the sustaining of the
objections to the exceptions, and filed
no amended bill. The next trouble was
Supreme Court decision refusing to
place the case on the calendar for hear
ing on appeal, because there was no
bill of exceptions. Then the Territory
moved to settle the bill of exceptions
and this was the state of affairs when
Judge Lindsay took up the tangle
again this morning.
Peters and Milverton argued for the
Territory and Kinney and Derby for
Cotton Bros. The attorney general
claimed that he couldn't appeal to the
Supreme Court until the judge did
something to appeal from. The attor-
neys for the other side declared that
the judge had already done enough,
and that his decision sustaining objec-
lions to the exceptions amounted to a
denial of the bill of exceptions and
should have been appealed from within
the ten days. Peters sarcastically
thanked Derby for having secured for
linn the ten days to amend, but said
he didn't want to amend.
The Niger in the woodpile was ex-
hibited for a moment when Kinney in
timated that the Territory couldn't get
to the Supreme Court at all now, hav-
ing allowed its ten days to pass with
out either amending or appealing.
Judge Lindsay denied the motion tc
settle the exceptions. An exception
was of course taken to this, and the
matter is now to be taken to the SUI
preme Court again, if that body is will
ing to receive it.

ShatU,s Hand Characteristic.

Mr.. Shaw writes freely and
smoothly, after a style that might
be easily accepted as that Of a
woman's hand taught in the school
of exaggerated or large writing.
His is the rost pronounced char
acteristic work Of all the family.
Mr.. Bonaparte's signature. while
plainly written, is not especially
characteristic of anything. It is
the youthful hand and evidently
has never changed from the time
when he first settled into that
style of signature as a boy at
school.
Mr.. Cortelyou's is the most un-
defnable of all the signatures. He
is hasty writer. a style cultivated
by him, no doubt, in his stenogra-
ply, which has been to him of such
great service.
None of the signatures show any
evidence of age or infrmity of any
kind, but exhibit steadiness of
