Likewise was Charlie Motley, his first
lieutenant, ru.ed out OF order and or
dered TO subside when he would have
taken part i'm the proceedings. Not

sldent Piuhham had changed the con-
ditiOns by which Wallach was to be
allowed to visit the Settlement, and
under which the Board had agreed TO
allow him to select twelve victims, and
under which he was to carry on his
cure at the Kalihi receiving sta
ton.

/ forestalled this by stating that cler;-
cal error had been made in the trans

ing the corrected copy which he
had sent as soon as mis- attention was
called to the matter, with the minutes
of the meeting at which the conditions

| At the third trial, in 1908, Judge J. e.
Robbins of Mayfieid presided. 1t again
resulted in a verdict of guilty and this
time the death penalty was imposed.
Following this sentence the case was
taken from the state courts by Judge
A. M. j. Cochran of the United States
district court and the accused became a
federal prisoner and was confined in
the Newport Jail. This was done on
a motion that the federal courts take
jurisdiction Of the case under the con-
stitution, a jurisdiction which Judge
Cochran assumed.
The case was carried to the Supreme
Court of the United states but by that
tribunal was returned to the staLe
courts, and Powers once more was
brought back to the jail here.
Four years elapsed from the time OF
his death sentence to the present trial
During his confinement In the several
jails rumors have been circulated Of
an alleged attempt at rescue by the
mountain friends of Powers, but moth
inc of the kind was ever aftamDted
