CHINESE LIBEL CASE
IS ON BOARDS NOW

Chun Chew zee was arrested yester-
day on warrant charging him with
criminal libel. He is accused by Lo
Den Kui, known also as 10 Den Kwai,
of being responsible for the publica-
ton in the Hawaiian Chinese News of
an article alleged to be lfbelous. Lo is,
and has been for a long time, the
treasurer of the Man Hing Society, an
organization chiefly for charity, it is
stated. The article complained of, as
it is set out in the complaint sworn
to by Lo Den Kwai, is as follows:
f'Lo Den KwaFs mind (meaning the
mind of this aff1an) was only fixed
upon money, and he (meaning this af-
fiant) was so under its influence that
all of his (uleaning affianD statements
are false. When he (meaning affianD
tries to make you (meaning the mem
bers OF said Man Hing Society, and the
public generality believe that the Man
Hing Society is separate from the
Tong Hing Society, he is crazy. He
meaning affianO is trying to conceal
for his (meaning affiant) own use the
funds of said Man Hing Society,""
(Meaning that affiant was endeavorine
to fraudulently and feloniousIy appro-
pirate and convert to his own use the
moneys of said Man Hing Society,"

7. M'CANTs STEWARDS
ANCHOR To W|NDWARD

Kaahanui Lopes has filed a petition
for probate of the will of her late hus-
band, Antonio J. Lopes. The will
makes provision for the support of the
testator's wife, seven children and Jo-
seph P. Madeiros, godson, and for
that of any grandchildren. the estate
not to be finally distributed until the
youngest grandchild attained it's ma
jority. 1t forbids any alienation of the
real estate until that time, also the
selling or pledging of any benef1ciary's
claim, but according to the petition
there is no real estate and the per-
sonal estate is valued at only 5000.
Joseph P Madeiros, NJ. S. Azevedo
and T. McCants Stewart are named in
the will as executors and trustees. It
is provided in the will that T. McCants
Stewart and every future trustee who
shall be an attorney at law may act
as such attorney to the estate land
shall be entitled to charge and shall
be paid for all business done by him
as such attorney in respect of the
estate ''in the same manner as if he
had not been a trustee or executor" of
the will. McCants Stewart thus had
secured a cinch on the legal business
of the estate, the will bearing evidence
that he drew it up. 1t was executed
September 9, 1903, in presence of w.
L. Howard and D. Kalauokalani, Jr
Mrs Lopes, however. shows in her pc
tition that T. McCants Stewart has
long since departed from the Terri
tory, being, it is believed, now in the
Republic of Liberia, and that Madeiros
and Azevedo have declined to act as
executors. She therefore prays that
letters of administration with the will
annexed be issued to the Bishop Trust
Co, Ltd. Pending the hearing Judge
Lindsay has granted a separate petit
ton for the appointment of that cor
poration as temporary administrator.
Holmes & Stanley represent the petit
toner.

against H. Hackfeld & Co., Ltd, on
account of injuries received while I'M
loading coal from the bark Aeolus.
Complainant says that since July IS,
1902, when the accident happened, his
earning capacity has been wholly de-
stroyed, and he does not know and is
not able to state when, if at all, his
former earning capacity will be re-
stored. He is thirty-six years of age
and a stevedore by trade, and up to
the time of the injury was well and
strong. The injury was caused by the
breaking of a rope used in hosting
trucks out of the hold, SO that one of
the trucks fell from the hatch level
into the hold and did strike plaintiff,
who was then preparing to leave said
hold, and did knock him down and
make him insensible, and did crush his
right foot, and severely bruise his
arms, breast and both legs,
and did otherwise injure him physical
ly and mentally" 1t is alleged that
the "rope was old, worn, weak and
rotten
