CHINESE MODE
MARRIAGE VALID
Judge Dole Repeats Former
Need of Second
Judge Discussed.

Lee Sa Kee. otherwise known as Sha
Kee, indicted for adultery, was put on
trial before I. S. Judge Dole yester-
day morning Assistant District At
torney RawEns appeared for the Unit
| ed States and Messrs Magoon and
Lightfoot for the defendant Three
| jurors were challenged and the follow
ing accepted and sworn:
Hugh H. Walker, Eugene X. Allen,
w. G. Ashley, J. NJ. Dowsett, Walter
Waiamau, John F. Colburn, P Macdo-
nald J. D. Cockett, Luther Severance,
David B. Maconachie, Charles Hubert
and Harry Murray.
Judge Dole, in the proceedings, re
affirmed his former ruling that mar
riage between Chinese. according to
their national custom, in this country,
is valid in law even if no license for
the marriage was taken cut.
This ruling established one of the
essential facts in the case subject to
proof by the prosecution. The trial
is expected to take more than a week.
SECOND JUDGE NEEDED.
In letter to JUDGE Dole. District
Attorney Breckons furnishes informa-
ton SHOWING the need of a second
Judge of the United States District
Court 1t is in connection with a let
ter to Judge Dole from Judge F. NJ
Hatch, agent Of the local commercial
bodies at Washington, asking for in
formation bearing on the bill for APP
pointnPnt of an additional federal
judge.
Mr. Breckons points out the large
and important calendar of criminal
cases for the present special term, to
which many additions are anticipated
from the work of the grand jury. He
mentions the great matters involved in
the lumber trust, the Pacific dredger,
the Manchuria and the Chiusa Maru
cases pending on the civil side Of the
court.
I'm short, " the District Attorney
saws, "the work of the court here is
such that it is absolutely impossible
to be handled by one Judge. In view
of the fact that the people here have
great respect for the United States
Court and get into that court when
ever it is possible to do so, something
should be done to remedy the longest
ed condition of the calendar
Further, Mr.. BTeckons says it must
occasionally be absolutely necessary to
have another Judge on account of the
disqualification Of the present judge.
Two years ago it became necessary
for counsel to waive any possible dis
qualification of Judge Dole in L. $.
VS. LunalilO Estate as the case involved
passing on a deed delivered by him.
Now condemnation suit was pending
in which the judge had to be made a
necessary party as a trustee Of the
Bishop Museum.
