JUDGE DOLE
EXCUSES JURORS
COMPLIMENTS THEM FOR THE
EXCELLENCE OF THE SERVICE
RENDERED BY THEM.

The jurors of the United States Dis
trict Court for the special February
term, who are not engaged in the case
at present on trial were excused for
the term, this morning by Judge Dole.
In doing so the court thanked the mem
mented them on the fact that they
have been more than ordinarily atten-
tive and have rendered their verdicts
with promptness, the deliberations in
no instance consuming more than an
hour of time.
With the exception of the case of
Toichi Hayashi, a Japanese charged
with perjury in connection with the
matter of the immigration of Japa-
nese woman into the Territory, which
was taken up this morning, all the
cases on the calendar have been dis
posed of either by trial or continuance
till the regular 4-pril term. Among
these latter is the murder case of John
Wynne, for the killing of Engineer Nc
Kinnon of the S. S. Rosecrans some
months ago, and the cases Of j. Rosen-
berg charged with receiving stolen
property of the United States from a
gang of boy junk thieves.
The case of Hayashi which was
taken up this morning may be conclud-
! ed today. The prisoner is represented
, by G. c. Biting, while w. T. Rawlins
of the District Attorneys Office is
! prosecuting.
A number of the jurors excused live
on other islands and leave for their
homes today.

QUESTIONS COULD
NOT Be ANSWERED
POSSIBLE SELF INCRIMINATION
GIVES CONSTITUTIONAL PRO-
lection.

Although the trial was begun at 10
o'clock this morning of Soichi Haya-
shi in the U. S. District Court on
charge of perjury in connection with
some immigration matter, no testimo-
ny has been introduced up to the pres
ent time on account of demurrer to
the indictment introduced at the out
set by c. C. Biting, attorney for the
defendant. The demurrer was based
on the ground that the questions pro-
pounded to defendant on which he was
indicted, could not be answered either
way without discriminating himself,
and thus becomes unconstitutional.
Judge Dole at o'clock, after hear
ing lengthy arguments on the objec-
tion, overruled the demurrer.

TOUGHS
TABOO
MERCHANTS ASSOCIATION PRESI-
DENT DOES NOT FAVOR BOWERY
BOYS.

George w. Smith, president of the
Merchants Association, stated this
morning in reference to the project
OF importing several thousand of New
York City's unemployed to the Terri
tory, that he believed that such step
would be a very great mistake, He
further stated that the letter of Louis
Klopsch, editor of the Christian Her.
aid, and president of the Bowery Mis-
sion, would not be introduced form
ally at the meeting of the Association
tomorrow afternoon, although it might
be that the matter would be brought
up by some of the members and in
formally discussed.
"The suggestion of the Star that
large number of these unemployed
of the mainland cities might be well
used in the construction of the eX-
tensive Notifications and oUher works
to be built by the Federal Government
instead of employing Oriental labor
said Mr.. Smith, is very good pro-
vided it is not UAposed to use these
men of the Bows for other purpos-
es. AS plantation hands they would
probably not work a full day, but
would fill our city with a lot of in
digent and criminal characters which
the police force would have its hands
full to cope with, and which would
be menace to the safety of property
if not of life in Honolulu"
Mr. Smith expressed the opinion
that living conditions here would be
demoralized if a large number of New
York's idle population were brought
here, and that their influence on busi'
ness and various industries would be
seriously involved and a lot Of main
land labor troubles of which we are
now free, introduced in probably the
most virulent form.

why he, Quick, will not put it all over
Dunham, on the run back
Captain Dart of the Atlas is still to
be heard from, but he may be counted
on having good hopes of victory after
the splendid showing in running from
San Francisco in twelve days.
One thing that may count very ma
terially against the Astrars chances at
winning out is the fact that she is
manned with Japanese, at least half OF
whom are green hands and the Ed
ward Sewall and the Atlas will prob
ably ship American and European SAIL
ors, most of whom are apt to be men
of experience who viii take a liYelier
interest in a 15,000-mile race than
would the Japanese crew.
Already is there money offered on
the local waterfront as to the outcome
of the big race around the Horn, a
race that will endure for several
months.

IN EAR
BITING TRIAL

The trial of Brady Clements in Judge
Robinsons court on charge of may
hem, in having chewed off his wife's
ear, is still in progress after three
days taking of testimony. All Of
today has been taken up with the tes-
timony of DIR. George Francis Straub,
who was put on the stand as an expert
on mental troubles, it being the conten-
ton that the prisoner was suffering
from mental abnormality at the time
he committed the crime, as a result of
a serious injury to his head received a
short time previous to its commission.
The expert is making quite strong
case for the defense. He is being
cross examined this afternoon by At
torney Cathcart for the prosecution.

SAILORS
MISSING
WONDER ON WATERFRONT AS TO
WHEREABOUTS OF FIFTY MA
RINERS.

A few days ago there were half
hundred sailors on the beach looking
for opportunities to ship, telling hard
luck stories and Licking because the
Astral shipped Japanese crew.
Today there is scarcely a sailor in
sight and there have been no ap-
parent opportunities for them to get
out town, by way of vessels in any
event.
The question on the waterfront and
there are many making the interroga-
tion, is as to where these men have
disappeared, exclusive of Jail. Could
they have been taken into some new
boarding house and made so comfort
able that they are not in hurry to
again parade the front seeking jobs?
What makes the question so perti-
nent is that the police have Of late
been keeping a shar peye on the only
sailors boarding house the waterfront
is supposed to possess and are inclined
to make it hot for the proprietor un-
less he lives up to regulations, Board
of Health and otherwise.
If the sailors have found a haven, z
