WALLER GIVEN
UNUSUAL POWER
Samuel Parker Gives Absolute
Authority in Affairs
His Own.

There has been filed for record with
Registrar Merriam a power of attorney
from Samuel Parker to Gilbert John
son Waller 1t is dated May s, 1908,
and is very comprehensive in the powers
it gives. After appointing Waller his
attorney in fact, it proceeds to enum-
crate the purposes for which the ap-
pointment is made. The first purpose
is one not frequently found in such
documents. 1t empowers Waller E'to
examine, investigate and inquire into
all matters business, property and at
fairs in the Territory of Hawaii which
| now or hereafter may own or in which
am now or hereafter may be inter
ested or concerned in any manner or to
any extent; to take complete charge
and control of and manage all of my
affairs, business and property in the
Territory of Hawaii to the same extent
as L could do if personally present; to
sell and dispose of my property of every
description or any part thereof, either
absolutely or by way of pledge, mort
gage or otherwise, in all respects as the
said Gilbert johnson Waller shall in his
absolute discretion think ft.''

Examination of Not a Single
Witness Has Been
Completed.

The jury in Judge Dole's court was
in the afternoon, and at two until ten
this morning. Argument of counsel
took up the whole day. The argument
was primarily on whether the cash
book and the twenty-five letters of
transmittal shall go in evidence against
Moses Koki, at this stage. The de-
Tense insists that they cannot go in,
at any rate until the fact of an I'M
lawful conversion of money of the
United States to the use of himself
or some other than the United States,
by Koki, has been proved. In their
argument counsel for the defense say
that these show that Koki RENTED al
ways within the thirty days required
by law; that the amount shown on
hand by the letter of transmittal and
the cash book for August do not agree,
nor for October, nor for November. but
that these were all approved by the
postoffice inspector but that without
rebuke or caution it is now demanded
that he shall be held for embezzlement
in December for the exact practice
NJ F. Prosser for the defense said
that this case was exactly analogous
with the Solomon Maheula case which
he prosecuted. He then argued the
now argues, but Judge Gear decided
against him. Now being on the other
side, and the side which Gear then de-
cided was right, if Judge Dole should
decide the other way, it would put him
in an anomalous position.
Judge Dole promised to give de-
cfsion on the argument this morning.
In anticipation of the trial proceed
ing, still other witnesses from Hawaii
are being sent for. Deputy United
States Marshal Chillingworth left by
the Mauna Kea yesterday to subpoena
them.
Counsel for the two sides entered into
a stipulation as to what Vreedenburg,
the tax collector of Kona, would tes
tify to, and he was allowed to go back
home to look after his tax collections.
DEMURRER SUSTAINED.
Judge Lindsay yesterday sustained
the demurrer in the suit of Henry
Smith, trustee. against Raymond Reyes
and others. The complainant filed a
creditors bill, in which it was alleged
that Reyes had conveyed valuable prop
ertp to his children for an adequate
consideration with intent to defraud
his creditor, the conveyance reserving
a life interest in the property to Reyes. !
The demurrer is sustained on the ground
that the bill does not show that the life |
interest reserved is not sufficient to |
meet the Judgment held by the COM
plainant, and it may be reached by or
binary process of law by execution, and |
that therefore the plaintiff has not ex-
hausted his remedy at law.

ATTORNEYS GIVE HOT
EXCHANGES IN COURT

There were some lively exchanges
between counsel, and sometimes be-
tween counsel and judge, in the Bierce
case before Judge De Bolt and jury
yesterday. The case has been on trial
for two weeks and attorneys seem to
be on a keen nervous tension.
The acrimony of debate reached
what was probably its elimination
yesterday afternoon, when the attor-
neys for the plaintiff alleged that the
attorneys for the defense had called
on them to produce certain letter,
and court had adjourned an hour
earlier than usual in order that they
might search for it, when all the time
the defense had it in it's possession.
Attorneys for the defense insisted that
their call included other documents
which they did not have Judge De
Bolt was quite severe in his character
ization of the defense for calling on
the plaintiffs to produce letter which
it had in it's own possession at the
time
f. F. Cooper. formerly an attorney
for the plaintiff, was on the stand a
good part of the afternoon. 1t looks
now as though the case would occupy
the remainder of this week at least.

Victory of Dark Horses Yesterday Makes Close Race in
First Divsion-Shop men Spring Surprise
Among Younger Teams.

BY defeating Treasury and Columbia
Athletic Club yesterday, the Marines
and Grace Church made the race in
class A a close one.
The doreists had it all figured cut that
Columbia Athletic Club had the pennant
cinched, with Treasury a good second,
but the supposedly weaker teams came
up with a rush and put one across on
the leaders. There IS no gainsaying the
fact that Grace clearly Outplayed the
Columbia team, while TreasuTys field
ing was decidedly off color in many
spots.
The two games were alive with en-
thusiasm and interest. and the 1900 or
more spectators were kept on edge
throughout the sixteen innings.
Class \ now has a lay-off until the
10th. as the Nationals come home and

the 18th the series will again be gotten
under way. and will continue until all
