FILES ANSWER
Objects to L. L. McCandIess
Carrying Water on Both
Shoulders.

The Honolulu Rapid Transit & Land
Company yesterday fled its answer,
through Castle & Wilmington, attor-
neys, to the injunction issued against
it in the matter of the change of run
ming schedule of the cars of the Liliha-
| Waialae lines This injunction had
been taken out on the part of the
Territory on the complaint of certain
Liliha street residents and was to
prevent the company taking any ac-
ton in the way of laying switches or
changing the running time of their
! ears from a ten to a twenty minute
| basis.
The reply of the company is that
the Circuit Court has no jurisdiction
in the matter and that the complaints
made fail to make it appear in any
way that the Territory has authorized
the institution of the action 1t is
denied that the running time of the
Liliha cars is SO arranged as to make
and further denied that the change of
schedule will greatly inconvenience
anyone.
The answer admits the citizenship of
the complaining delegation from Liliha
street, but denies that they represent
the citizens they claim they do, par
4. r
the fact that McCandless was one of
delegation which agreed on com
promise running time for the cars, suit
able for Liliha and Waialae residents
alike.
