l.. S. Conness stated that an inspec-

wise he had no personal knowledge
of the facts, save from gossip around

rumors of trickery.
James Kulike told of seeing ballots
marked one way and counted another

ing asked to bet by Crawford He
also told of hearing that there had been
fraud in throwing out votes in various

and that in one case he had told that
Crawford had said that he was working
only for Cathcart
Kulike said that he had talked with
people from the second precinct of
the Fifth District and also in the Third
precinct of the Fifth.
Col Knox testified that he had been
told of Crawfords trying to bet on
Achi. In his own precinct the 9th

the tally of five votes in favor of

After considerable argument the
court announced that the matter OF
Crawford's offering to bet was not ma
terial to the case.
H. M. Won Holt was sworn and stated
that his information came as a mem
ber of the Central Committee. He
said that part of his information came
from Frank Bertelmann, in regard to
frauds in the country precincts. He
stated that he had heard that rejected
ballots had been picked up in Kakaako
and brought to John Lane.

HE FALLS 95 FEET FROM MoLO-

Reports by the steamer from Moo
kai which arrived yesterday tell of the
accidental death of John Souza, of this

at the Molokai Settlement. The tower

A coroner's jury was empaneled at

brought in. The remains were buried

that Souza thought that loaded car

would counterbalance the weight of an
empty one in which he wished to ride

NO DAMAGE SUIT
ON ALIENS DEATH

High Sheriff Henry does not at all
appreciate the notice which appeared
in the morning paper today stating
that his chief deputy, George Sea, had
been with Attorney e. c. Peters on
Maui looking up evidence for a damage
suit against the H. c. and S. Co. for
the death of Arthur Allen, who was
killed in an accident at Puunene a
short time ago. He stated that Mr.,
Sea was on Maui on other business

taking a pleasure ride in an automobile
with Mr. Peters, had nothing to do
with him and had nothing whatever
to do with any such suit.

cent election for Mayor of the City

the call of the roll of petitioners only
revealed six as present and Chief Jus
tice Hartwell gave orders that the 9TH
ers should be summoned. The object
of the inquiry was to find out upon
what the petitioners personally based
their belief when swearing to the COM
plaint
The most sensational testimony
which developed was that of James
Kulike, who swore absolutely that he
had seen Willie Crawford, keeping the
tally sheet in his precinct of the Fifth
District, when vote for Lane was
called, pretend to tally the vote, but
move his pencil over the paper with
out making any mark
Most of the witnesses who were
examined had received their informa-
ton from others, though in several
cases direct statements alleging that
frauds had been committed were mace.
In speaking of the Crawford precinct,
Judge George A. Davis, who with A.
g. M. Robertson acts as counsel for the
petitioners, stated that he expected to
prove the fraud by a chain of evil
dence. He said that he would show
in the first place that Crawford had nc
business behind the rail, except when
casting his vote, that he kept a tally
sheet which was incorrect and that
this tally sheet was the one used by
the inspectors in counting up the re-
turns in the fight for Mayor.
From the manner in which the tes-
timony went along it looks as though
considerable time would be taken up
before a recount will begin, if the
Supreme Court decide on a recount at
all.
The first witness called was F. w.
Macfarlane, who stated in response to
questions of the Chief Justice, that he
had sworn to the petition as the result
of hearing the charges read before the
Territorial Central Committee, of

DAMAGES OF s45o
For Girl Injured in Bank Street
 Trolley Accident.

Miss Mary Kolbeek, who lives In the Brooklyn district. was awarded damages of $450 by jury in the su- perior court in New Haven yester- day against the Connecticut Co. Miss kolbeck was in trolley car which collided with freight car at the Bank street crossing about year ago. The passengers were generally shaken up, but Miss Kolbeck claimed to have been injured internally.
 Before suit was instituted against the trolley company a local lawyer could have settled the case for the girl for $500 and saved her all the trouble of going to court and consid- erable expense as we'll as by numer- ous trips to New Haven by herself, her physician and witnesses. But firm of New York attorneys got wind of the accident and told the girl that nothing less than a few thousand dollars would be hers if she would give them the case. Placing confi- dence in their statement she told them to go ahead and sue and they did so. But after a time she lost confidence in the New York attor- neys and gave her case to New Ha- ven lawyer, with the result as stated above.
