WASHINGTON, D. c., July 28.-Mr.

service, who is in charge of the sta
tion at Honolulu, has been in town
this week on his way to his home in
PENNSYLVANIA. He stopped off here for
day only and had a little talk with
Commissioner F. P. Sargent.
There was little in the conversation,
however, of public interest, as it dealt
largely with routine matters at the Ho-
nolulu station. Mr.. BechteI told the
Commissioner about the movements of

is a feeling detrimental to him, il is
not general. There may be seventy

Archer asked why, if the case was

should the Supervisors conduct an in

Lucas was of the same opinion as
Archer He thought that if the grdno

Sheriff Brown said that he had in

would like to have the board investl-

until next month and it was rough on
Vida to have the charges hanging over
him for such long time. If the board
thought it best for the jury to in

let it go at that. He had asked the
board to investigate and thought that
he had done his duty in the matter

Chapter one of the investigation by
the Board of Supervisors of the charges
of gross cruelty made against Sheriff s
assistant Henry Vida by Vi Marn
Young, came to tame ending last
night, the session being continued until
Tuesday evening next.
The whitewash pail was exhibited
over early in the evening by Super
visor Moore who moved that the in
Vestigation be dropped as the case was
to be brought before the grand jury.
No seconder was found and the investi-
cation proceeded.
Attorney Lightfoot stated that the
charges would certainly be laid before
the grand jury but was personally de-
sirous of having the board investigate
the case to the bottom.
vi Marn Young told a straightfor-
ward story of terrible torture endured
Dy MIN W1G01n Ele cOQQneS OF the po-
lice station, the torture, he alleged,
having been inflicted by Vida in an
attempt to wiring confession from him.
Numerous questions by the board
failed to shake the witness testimony
one iota.
~ Sheriff Brown, Vida. Joe Iseal, Choy
and Jack Melanphy took the stand for
the defense and testified as if reciting
a school lesson. Cruelty to prisoner!
The very idea of it! Whoever said
cruelty? The trouble was that the
prisoners were treated too well. Yes,
indeed!
Attorney Lightfoot protested vigor-
ously that he had not been allowed to
cross-examine the police witnesses. He
said that he would dearly love to dol
so He expressed his willingness and |
ability to produce evidence corrobora-
tive of that offered by Vida's alleged
victim and the board adjourned in or
der to give him an opportunity to do
this.
