Washington, June six prominent
Washington attorneys have been dis
barred from practice in the depart
ment of the interior after today. 1t is
alleged that they sought out old SOL
diers or their widows to whom land
grants had not been issued and in
formed them that such land could be

veterans would agree, the land be-
coming the property of the lawyers,
who sold it at a large profit.

A KAUAI
CONTEST
DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR AU-
DIToR TAKES HIS CASE TO sU-
PREME COURT.

From the Republican stronghold of
Kauai, where there never should be
close elections, comes a contest, in
which, if the charge made by Charles
Blake, the Democratic candidate for
auditor, holds water, he will be seated
in place of the Republican candidate,
George E. H. Baker, who has been
declared elected. The papers in the
contest were filed with the Supreme
Court this morning by Attorneys w.
w. Thayer and E. M. Watson.
1t is alleged by Blake that the mis-
count came in the Lihue precinct. He
had watchers on hand there who al
legged that they saw the tally of the
voters and that when the totals were
made up, in the crossing off the votes
in fives, according to the regular GUS
tom, Baker was given five votes which
should have been Blake's. Should this
prove true it would give Baker SO
votes in this precinct in place of the
1O4 with which he was credited while
Blake's vote would be increased from
6S to 73.
The total vote for the County of
Kauai, in voting for County auditor,
stood as follows: Baker 429; Blake
425. Should the change of five votes
be made it would show the following
result: Baker 425; Blake 43O; allow
ing the latter to win out by five votes
The contest will be hurried forward
as much as possible in order that il
may be settled before the time come;
for the newly elected officers to assume
their positions.

one Carl Smith against affiant for the
sum of SIPS referred to on page of
said affidavit of L. A. Thurston, affiant
believes that said suit was instituted
by the said Carl Smith at the instiga-
tion of the said L. A. Thurston forthe
purpose of harassing and annoying ar
fiant; that as to said action so brought
by the said Carl Smith, affiant has a
perfect legal defense to the same, and
furthermore has counter claim against
the said Carl Smith for professional
services rendered by affiant, the amount
of said counter claim being in excess
Of the sum SIPS, the amount sued for
by Smith in said action.
Affiant further AYERS upon informa-
tion and belief that the creditors bill

judgment heretofore referred to) now
pending in the Circuit Court of the
First Judicial Circuit, Territory of Ha-
waii, at Chambers, brought by H. G..
Middleditch, as trustee in bankruptcy
of Chas. F. Herrick Carriage Com
pany, Limited, against afiant, referred
to on page of said affidavit of l.. A..
Thurston, as well as the case of H. T.
Mills against affiant in which Judgment
was recovered for the sum of $255 20
as set out on page of said affidavit
of L. A. Thurston, were instigated by
the said L A. Thurston and by one A.
S. Humphreys, likewise for the express
and sole purpose of annoying and har-
assing affiant, and in this connection
affiant further AYERS that the said A.
S. Humphreys has been for many
weeks last past and is now actively en-
gagged in endeavoring to secure and
procure evidence against affiant in sup
port of the libelous matter heretofore
published by said defendants against
this affiant and made the basis of this
and four other actions brought by af-
fiant against said defendants, but as
to whether or not the said A. S. Hum
phreys is so attempting to secure and
procure such evidence is acting as a
detective or as counsellor and attor-
ney at law, affiant is unable to aver.
Affiant further states that in addi-
ton to the past Indebtedness paid by
affiant as hereinabove set forth, affiant
has further paid during the past two
years upon past Indebtedness, owing
by him, the sum of over $1,000
Afiant further says that the state
ment of L. A. Thurston in said afi-
davit that affiant is a man of no finan-
cial standing in the business commun-
ity of Honolulu is absolutely false and
malicious.

WILLIAMS
ROASTED
HAWAIIS COUNTY ATTORNEY
GETS A REPETITION OF A DOSE
HE is USED TO. -

For the second or third time County
Attorney Charles William, of Hawaii,
has come in for a severe roasting at
the hands of the Territorial Grand
Jury of the Fourth Circuit. He was
just reelected to the position that he
now holds, but the remarks made in
the report of the Grand Jury, are, to
say the least, rather strong. The
Grand Jury made the following re-
marks in relation to him in it's re-
port to Judge Parsons, at the same
time giving Deputy Attorney General
Larnach a very pleasant sendoff:
1T is the feeling of the Grand Jur-
ors, that Mr.. Chas. Williams, County
Attorney, being absent from this
Term of Court, should be severely cen
sured by the court for his failure to
leave necessary papers relating to the
cases coming before the Grand Jury,
in the hands of his Deputy.
1--WE wish to thank Deputy Attorney
General Larnach for the businesslike
manner in which he has presented ali
cases to the Grand Jury, particularly
considering the fact that he was with
out many necessary papers relating tC
cases coming before the Grand Jury
and which are in the hands of the
County Attorney"

NAvYs CHIEF ELECTRICIAN AT
WIRELESS STATIONS IN HAWAII SAMOA, AND PHILIPPINES -
HANsCoM WILL PUT GOVERN MENT STATION NEAR PRESENT
XAHUKU APPARATUS.

An Associated Press cablegram this
morning states that Rear Admiral
Cowles, U. S. NJ, in his annual re-
port, urges that the development of
wireless telegraphy warrants the es-
tablishment of high-powered stations
at Hawaii, Guam, Samoa and the Phil
ippines.
Some time ago it was suggested that
the establishment on Oahu of the high
ly successful long-distance wireless
station at Kahuku would prove a great
convenience to the United States navy.
but it appears from the fact that the
navy, in spite of private enterprise, is
establishing it's own stations along the
Pacific Coast, and consultation with
experts now and formerly here makes
it certain that the fact that there al
ready exists a successfr' private wire
less station at any point does not pre-
clude the probability of the establish
ment of a similar station by the gov
ernment.
Undoubtedly" say the local wireless
people, "the government will establish
its own stations here on Oahu, in Sa-

ONE KILLED
IN AFFRAY
PORTO RICANS INDULGE IN DEAD
LY AFFRAY AT HAMAKUAPOKo
LAST SUNDAY.

WAILUKU, November 2S-One dead,
one in the hospital with an injured
head and third in Jail is the result of
an affray at Hamakuapoko last Sun
day.
A large number of Porto Ricans were
drinking too freely anu a row started.
The statement of Antonio Torres is
to the effect that he was attacked by
Ramon Morales and Domingo Perry.
AS both of these men were armed with
knives he ran from them until he was
cornered. He got guava stick and as
they attacked him he struck them over
the heads and knocked them both out.
The injuries to Ramon Morales were
fatal and he died Monday morning.
Sheriff Saffery believes that Domingo
was the real cause of the trouble al
though the injuries he received were
less severe than those of his COM
panion. He will recover.
Deputy Sheriff Morton is making an
investigation and a coroner's jury is
trying to get at the facts in the case.
The Porto Ricans are evading the
giving of evidence as much as pos
sble and the authorities are meeting
with much difficulty in getting at the
facts.
The police claim that a Japanese at
Hamakuapoko is almost openly SELL
ing liquor without a license and it is
he who is really responsible for much
of the trouble there.-Maui News.
