not even consider such course. The
Judge De Bolt has no power to take
il back.
The matter of the appeal comes up
before the Supreme Court Friday
morning and the Attorney Generals
department will go ahead with the
case as II Judge DE Bolt had taken No
action whatever In the matter.
Judge De Bolts unusual ruling
came this morning consequent on the
motion of Judge Gear that the inter.
loCutory decree he set aside and tho
order allowing an appeal to be taken
be cancelled. Judge De Bolt handed
II out hot or the bat. He refused 10
allow Deputy Attorney General Nil.
verton to argue the matter at all, but
announced that Gears motion was
granted.
The Judge intimated that he had
been taken advantage of by Attorney
General Peters in that the latter's mo-
tion for an interlocutory decree and
for AN order allowing an appeal to the
Supreme Court had been presented In
the absence OF the complainant In the
case and his attorney.
The Attorney General, however
states that the papers were presente /
to the Judge In open court for his sig
nature. Mr.. Peters says he told the
Judge at the time that he did not
think 1t necessary to notify Gear and
the Judge apparently took the same
view of the matter, since he promptly
signed the papers without any protest

ship came In closer, however, II was
seen that. AS usual. he was right. and
the signal that oil was needed was fly
ing from her masthead.
Captain Lawlcss stated that he start
cd to make an attempt to reach San
Francisco but finding. after he was
two days out. that he would be unable
to make port with the scant supply OF
fuel which he had left, he headed for
Hawaii. Making this dctour took the
Mariposa 9l6 miles out of her way but
saved nearly 1900 In the distance in
which an oil supply could he reached
The distance from San Francisco Ia
Tahiti is 1860 miles The Mariposa

The passengers of the Mariposa feet
aggrievcd that, they did not know that
they were going TO come via Honolulu
as they would have been able to ar
range for stopover privileges and many
would have done so II they had the OPP
portunity. Tie Mariposa left Tahiti
on January IL.
In coming into this port Captain
Lawless noticed the smoke from Maui
ma Loa very clearly. In regard to tins
he said:
For about $50 miles outside of this
port there Is haze and smoke which
covers the sea. II IL very much like
the smoke which We have in Califor.
MIA from Forest fires and smcled more
like wood smoke than anything else II
was not very thick but still was heavy
| enough TO he very noticeable"
Capt. Dawless IL an old favorite In
this port and IL very well known. He
ran here for great many years on the
Australia. before she was taken off tn,
Pacific trade. and the last time he wa,
here came as the captain of the Ala.
