Give In To
Japanese
Physicians
MEDICAL BOARD HAS BEEN
HOLDING EXAMINATIONS FOR
LICENSES IN JAPANESE.

Japanese physicians have at last
gained their pcint relative to being
examined in their own language for
licenses to practice medicine in the
territory This point was conceded
them about three months ago by the
board of medical examiners.
For years past there has been an
issue between the Japanese physicians
and the local board of health and the
board of medical examiners relative to
the manner of examining Japanese
applicants for license to practice me-
dicine. The Territorial officials have
held that the examinations should be
conducted i'm the English language
while the Japanese have held to the
contrary. 1t was claimed by the lat
ter that this ruling by the board shut
out many capable men from engaging
upon their profession. The matter
even went so far as to get into the
courts
About three months ago the examin-
ing board consulted with Attorney Cen
eral Peters relative to this matter.
He was asked for an opinion. Peters
held that it was a matter entirely dis
cretionary with the board of medical
examiners as to whether the Japa-
nese applicants were to be examined in
the English language or in their native
language. The attorney general held
to the belief that the board could not
be forced into giving the Japanese exa-
limitations in any language other than
English.
The board finally decided to concede
the point made by the Japanese and
since that time has been allowing the
examinations to be taken in the Japa-
nese language where desired. This
has been done however with ample res
trictions in the way of interpreters ap-
pointed by the board of health, in or
der that there can not be the slightest
chance of the applicants not comply
ing with all the requirements of the
board of examiners.

.KAPAA LANDS
MAY SOON
Be OPENED
PRATT WILL GO TO KAUAI NEXT
WEEK TO SEE ABOUT PROS
PECTIVE SETTLERS.

Land Commissioner Pratt will go to
Kauai next week for the purpose of
taking up the matter of opening up the
Kapaa land to settlers. He has rece1v-
ed a list of Portuguese and natives
who have expressed desire to take up
lands at Kapaa and with this list he
will go for a conference with the pros
pective settlers.
Pratt has also been informed that
quite a number of Portuguese had ex-
pressed a desire to take up house lots.
but there had not apparently been a
disposition upon their part to take up
any tracts for cultivation. Under the
former appraisement of the land there
was an average of S6 an acre, but this
appraisement was for swamp, noun
tain and fertile land together. Some
of the applicants are understood to de-
sire to secure the best cane land at this
low price, but this concession can not
be granted.
Up to date the land commissioner
says that there have been no formal
written applications for Kapaa land.
The list sent to him was not even a
petition bearing the signatures of those
who desired land.
"I do not believe" said Pratt today,
"that as extensive a community as will
be needed to work those Kapaa land
can work together harmonfously, and
am inclined to favor the individual set
tier. However will be better able to

GRAND JURY TO

WILL START THIS EVENING ON
EVENING SESSIONS FOR CON-
VENIENCE OF MEMBERS.

The Grand jury will hold night ses-
sions this week. The first session of
this character will occur tonight at 1880
o'clock. The idea in holding night ses-
sions is to enable the jury to complete
its work without unduly interfering
with the regular business of the mem
bers of the body.
Most of the members of the jury are
business men and they find it ex-
ceedingly difficult during the present
week to give their time during the day
to anything outside Of their regular
occupation. Night sessions will it is
believed obviate any inconvenience of
this character. While it is not de-
finitely stated, the probability is that
the jury will make it's final report this

Sheridan
Rock Is
Located
T.. s. S IROQUOIS MAY HAVE MORE
WORK OFF BARBERS POINT
RESULTS OF SURVEY PRIVATE.

Whether or not o. United States
ship Iroquols Car..u 10 Carter has To-
Gated the rock Oft Barber's point, the
western headland of this island upon
which the transport Sheridan, Captain
Peabody, went ashore a few months
ago, is lot certain as far as official in
formation is concerned, for the reason
that there is no official information,
But lay minds are satisfied that the
government boat has found the rock
and taken good note thereof.
The Iroquois returned from her sur
vey of the reef off Barber's point last
Saturday evening having gone out Fri
day morning. Had the weather not
been rough she would have completed
the survey ordered by the Navy De-
partment in one day On Friday it
was rainy although the sea was not
very rough. On Saturday it was clear
overhead but rough water made the
work of the engineers difficult.
The water was too troubled to permit
of those aboard the Iroquois seeing the
bottom in shoal places.
1t is not improbable that the vessel
will again make a trip of investigation
though this depends on the department
The report now being prepared may be
all that is required.
A rumor got around after the re-
turn of the Iroquos that the boat had
found the Sheridan rock in a very
simple manner, going on the rock her
self. This, however, is denied by
Captain Carter. Captain Carter states
that the Iroquois was drawing IL feet
forward and at no time was she where
she had less than two feet of water
under her keel. The story of herself
humping on the Sheridan rock may
have ben a Christmas inspiration. The
Iroquois went in as close as she could
in order to make a thorough survey.
Captain Carter this morning did not
wish to discuss the results of the sur
vey, saying that this could not be done
until the soundings had been plotted
and a chart prepared
1t is understood though absolutely
no information is obtainable at the
Naval Station or aboard the Iroquois
in this regard, that the survey was Or
dered by The Navy Department at tho
request of the Army Department to be
used in the matter of the examination
into the stranding of the Sheridan. In
this case it would be likely that no in
! formation as to the result Of the sur
vey would be given out until 1t was
used in the examination of Captain
! Peabody, as the survey may have much
/ to do with the effect on Captain Pea

IMPORTANT
LIBEL POIU9
IS RAISED
GEORGE A. DAVIS HAS RAISED AN
INTERESTING CASE OVER THE
EMPLOYERS LIABILITY.

A very important point is involved in
the libel case brought recently by Karl
Weidmann against the S. S. Nebras-
kan. He claims $4,000 for damages for
injuries alleged to have been received
through the negligence OF another en-
ployee of the company. This is
thought to be the first case In admiral
ty wherein this point is to be consld'
cred and the decision given in U. S.
Judge Dole's court in this case will
undoubtedly attract considerable at
tention on the mainland 1t is certain
that the issue upon which the libellant
rests his case will ultimately be car
ried to the Supreme Court of the Unit
ed States, although probably not in the
present case. Heretofore under com
mon law, an employer was not liable
for damages for injuries inflicted upon
an employee through the negligence of
another employee. The last Congress
enacted a law however in which It was
held that common carriers were liable
for such damages. This law was in
tended primarily, it is understood, to
apply to the railroads. But George A.
Davis, the attorney for the libellant
in this present case, has taken the po-
sition that the new law applies to ocean
going vessels as well. So far as is
known this is the first time that an
attempt has been made to apply the
law to vessels Of the character as the
Nebraskan.
1t appears that Weidmann was in
small boat alongside the Nebraskan
painting her. He had, it is claimed by
her officers, been warned to Keep away
from under the gangway. But he took
his craft too close. One of the men at
work on the vessel let slip a piece OF
steel plate and the plate grazed the
shoulder of Weldmann. He was not
injured very much and was sent to the
Marine Hospital, attended, and in a
short time, was declared able to return

libel to be instituted The attorneys
