ter of Isaac S. Kaiu and Josephine
liaiu versus Mikahala Kaeo and S. X.

dant, S. X. Kaeo, an attorney at law,
he conveyed the land to the latter's
wife, Mikahala, with the understand
ing that after the trouble was over she
would reconvey to Isaac's wife.
Josephine Kaiu; that the considera-
ton of $3.50 named in the deed was
inadequate; that no part OF 1t was
ever paid to the plaintiffs: that the
amount was inserted because S. X.
l<aeo informed Isaac Kaiu that 1t was
necessary to have some consideration
named In the deed; that thereafter
the plaintiffs, being frightened and I'M
der the influence of said 8. X. Kaeo,
Joined in a mortgage of the land made
by defendants to George n. Wilcox;
that thereafter defendants cisimed
that the deed was an absolute convey
ance and proceeded to den Dish one

hala X Kaeo and deliver the same to
the clerk of the court and the same to
DC turned over to petitioners" for
reconveyance to Josephine Kaiu free
and clear of membranes; with pray
ers for alternative and general relief.
The answer claimed that the deed In
question was executed upon the pro-
posal of Isaac Kaiu that Mikahala
iaeo buy the lands that the parcels
were worth $3.50 and $500 respective
ly: that beside the consideration
named Mikahala Kaeo was to pay a
mortgage to ]. A. Magoon on these
and other lands of Isaac Kaiu amount
ing to $3.50 with SIS interest; that the
consideration had been paid and the
Magoon mortgage cancelled; that tho
consideration was adequate, and de-
MED generally the equities Of the bill.
The circuit Judge, after hearing the
evidence, decreed that judgment be en-
tered for defendants with costs.

REVOLUTIOMSTS' WITNESSES

Sympathy with Revolutionary Move
ment Might Be Charged, Intimates
United States District Attor-
ney Oscar LawIer

Attorneys Hartman and Holston scout
the idea that Trinidad Vasquez, the gov
ernment witness against the alleged
Mexican revolutionists, Magon, Villareal
and Rivera, was poisoned. The physicians
who attended him at the receiving hospi-
tai say they could find no evidence OF
poisoning.
United States District Attorney Lawler
holds that the sudden sickness of the
witness occurring at this time appears
suspicious.
1t was intimated yesterday by the Dis
trict Attorney Lawler that the govern
ment plans to make prisoners some OF
the witnesses whom the defence is plan
ming to bring here from various parts OF
the United States to be used to impeach
the testimony of Trinidad Vasquez. Ilde-
fonso r. Martinez and Andres Durand,
who are said to be on the way from Ari-
zona, are mentioned as the men who will
most likely be arrested.
These two men are said to be. sympa-
thizers with the revolutionary movement
and on that ground may perhaps be taken
into custody.

WELLBORN IGNORES
RIPLEY'S ATTACK
81 REFER you TO THE RECORDS
SAYS JUDGE
Article Criticising Decision Declares
Rebate Was Given in compensa-
tIon for Goods Lost in
Transit

When asked yesterday what he thought
about the article of President +. p. Rip
ley of the Santa Fe railroad in the cur
rem. issue of the Railway Age, In which
he. criticised Judge Olin Wellborn of the
United States district court for the de-
cision rendered in the rebate case. the
Judge replied that he had read the article
tut intended to ignore 1t.
1T is not fitting that | should pay at
terition to such criticism or answer It In
any way. I refer you to the records.
They speak for themselves. / hold that
the acceptance of a sum OF money less
than that named in the tariff for the
service. IL there has been such accept
ance was departure from the legal
rate. and that it is not Justification for
such a departure, nor is II any defense
against the prosecution thereof that the
acts of the carrier were done In compro-
mise for loss of property in transit"
President Ripley in his article reviews
the court proceedings and claims that in
the compromise agreemen: the railway
company stood the loss of the freight on
account Of the weight and the shipper
stood the LOGS of time.
The records of the case, as pointed out
by Judge Wellborn. show that a ruling
was made on the motion of the govern
ment attorney to exclude the evidence
which tended to show that the rebates
were given in compromise of account OF
claims for goods lost in transit, and not
in discrimination in favor of the preferred
shipper against its competitors.
