SALEM EAGLES WIN
IN The COMPROMISE

.
The troubles between the Salem
Eagles and city officials Of that
place were satisfactorily adjusted
out Of court Thursday evening, and
Judge G. W. lynch signed DEGREES
dismissing the cases.
twill be remembered the Eagles
elnb. room at Salem was raided a
number Of weeks ago by Chief Of
/ Police Joel Randolph. The officer
did not see any one selling beer but
found some in the room and took
possession of the beer. An action
arrested and,held for the grand jury,
and Mayor Earnest Randolph took
possession of the beer. An auction
in detinue was brought by John
Anne, Homer Gain, Earle Randolph
and others before Justice James
Bumgardner B against the mayor and
chief 10 recover the beer. Judge
Lynch granted a temporary iniunc-
ton to the officers, restraining the
club from proceeding to recover and
take possession Of the beer. Foi-
lowing this John Anne sued Mayor
Dandolph and Chief RarJ.olph for
$4,000 each for trespass on the
case.
The injunction matter was to
come up before Judge Lynch Thurs
day but before it did so a/compro-
mise. had been effected and upon
agreement all Of the proceedings
we've dismissed. The beer is to be
restored to the Eagles and they will
be allowed to conduct their club as
before the trouble arose.
The Salem Herald. in speaking
of the troubles, says:
"Most every citizen of Salem was
more or less interested in the out
come Of the proceedings instituted
against the Fraternal Order Of
Eagles by Mayor Ernest Randolph
and his chief, Joel Randolph, ct al.
several weeks ago, when the chief
gained admittance to the rooms by
the aid Of a pole AK, and confscatcd
a number of cases of beer and other
property belonging to members of
said order. Earl Randolph and
John Ames, two members Of the
aerie, who were in the rooms at
the time. were placed under arrest
for running a "speakeasv," and at
the trial which followed, there being
no evidence submitted upon which
to convict them. John Amcs was
released, but Earl Randolph was
held. under bond, to await the
action of the grand jury, just to
make test case, said the mayor.
"a most strenuous effort was made
by those who were preiudiced
against the Eagles, to procure evi-
dence upon which to find an in
dictment; even going so far as to
offer TO entertain one Of the mem-
bers Of the acrie, who had been
summoned before the grand jury,
at the Waldo hotel if he would help
them out. He did not dine at the
Waldo.
"About Is or 20 Eagles and others
were before the grand jury during
last week, but no indictment was
found against the said order for run
ming a @speakeasy," as was speci-
fed among the many CHARGES pre-
ferred against them. The only
grounds upon which the said off

cardinal principles are Liberty,

made to the mayor by man who

he says, and who is not a member
Of the order, that he had bought

nIGH SHERIFF HENRY
CATCH[S EMBEzzLEA

For three weeks past High Sheriff
Henry has been trying to apprehend
one Wada, a japanese wanted on Ka-
uai for having embezzled something
like one thousand dollars from Sena-
tor John GandalI. and yesterday the
man was run to earth at Waialua and
brought in to Oahu Prison. He will
be taken to Kauai for trial on the first
steamer to the Garden Island. But
little is known here of the details of
the crime, nothing but the warrant
having reached the local officers, but
Wada has given the High Sheriff some
thing of chase. He was first located
in Japanese hotel in town. where his
clothes are yet, but for three weeks he
would slip in there only for a night at
a time, always rising before daylight
and going out into the country after
he heard that the officers were after
him. AS the hotel keeper was always
careful TO notify the High Sheriff that
the man had been back only after he
had gone, the officers were kept pretty
busy trying to locate him. They finally
got onto his trail down in the coun-
try, and after that his capture was
a matter of only few days.

JOHNSON
Is SANE
DR.. Moore Strong in His
Opinion on That
Head.

tDo you not think that it was pos
sible that this man had an attack OF
alcoholic mania when this child was
killed. asked Attorney Harrison, de-
Tending murderer Johnson, Of DR..
Moore yesterday.
81 do not" answered the doctor.
And that was at the conclusion Of a
long day of fencing between the physi-
clan and the attorney for the defend
ant in the trial that is now getting on
| into the second week before Circuit
Judge Robinson. The case has reach
ed the stage where the prosecution is
putting on it's rebuttaI, and Deputy
| Attorney General Prosser is conduct
| ing it alone for the Territory. the At
| torney General being laid up with
grip. AT the morning session yester-
day. A ]. Lopez, George Watt, J. D.
Holt. Chang Kim and Charles Falk
were on the stand, and each testified
to having known Johnson. They all
regarded him as sane. Then came the
session with DR.. Moore
| DR. Moore, having the hypothetical
question read to him, said that he did
| not find it necessary to change the
opinion already formed of Johnson
from his examination of the man. Be-
| ing told to confine his answer to the
question. DR.. Moore said;
81 should not regard the man as
| insane. I should regard him as sane. y
'Do you consider that the facts OF
| the question point to any known phase
of Insanity" asked the attorney.
at appeared to me he was a man of
small intellectual development, he had
undergone hardships and was addicted
to alcohol. A man could hardly be
called sane while he was under the
influence of liquor. Still. I should not
say that he was insane. but rather
call him a low class-well, say, human
| being"
DR.. Moore adhered to his view on
cross-examination and, if anything,
went a little farther in the same di-
rection. .'I have not admitted that
the man had any mental infirmity,' he
said, in answer to a question from
Attorney Harrison based on the hy-
pothetical question. Moreover, /
think the hypothetical question is mis-
leading. and does not at all cover the
case"
but the doctor testifes -" began
Mr.. Harrison.
81 do not take any other doctors
opinion. said DR.. Moore II have my
own opinion. And have not admitted
imbecility."
DIR. Moore said. moreover. in answer
to further questions, that he thought
there was a motive for the crime that
had not yet appeared. He refused
even to assume state of facts cover
ed by the hypothetical question. but
finally said that, assuming such
state of facts. the fact that the man
had been drinking would probably,
acting upon his naturally weak men
tality, predispose him more to crime
of this character than he would be
otherwise And the doctor did not go
even this far, excepting with reluct-
ance He was still on the stand at
the hour Of adjournment.
