THELOCAL
COURT
UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT
ASIDE REAL ESTATE SALE.
Especial Correspondence }

WASHINGTON, d. c., April 19.-In
the case of Henry Van Giesen, appel
liant, versus c. B. Male, On appeal
from the Supreme Court of the Terri
tory of Hawaii, the decree of the Ter
ritorial Court has been affirmed by
the Supreme Court of the United
States in the following decision, the
opinion being delivered BY Mr. JUS
tice Holmes:
This is bill in equity by the ap-
pelee to set aside a sale on execution
to Van Giesen. The bill alleges the
bringing of an action for taxes by a
collector recovery of a judgment on
| thereupon. 1t sets up various sup
posed technical defects in the sum-
mons and subsequent proceedings, but
these do not need to be stated 1t is
enough to say that on the ground OF
such supposed defects motions were
made, in the district court where the
judgment was rendered, that the exc
cution be recalled, that the service
of summons be set aside and uuashed,
and that the High Sheriff be ordered
not to sell under the execution until
further order of the Court. This or
der was made and time was fixed
for the hearing of the motion at an
early day. Nevertheless the Sheriff
proceeded with the sales as it had
been advertised. on the day before
that fixed for the hearing, and sold
three lots of land, at a very made
quate price, Van Giesen, an assistant
of his. He gave notice pending the
sale that at the fall of the hammer
he should require a deposit of fifty
per cent of the purchase money for
each parcel then unsold, a condition
not contained in the notice of sale
and not enforced against Van Giesen
The bill is founded on the alleged de-
fects in the proceedings before execu-
ltlon as well as in the sale and prays
to have the judgment declared void
and as we have said, the sale Sci
aside. The Supreme Court of the
territory set aside the sale and upon
the plaintiff paying into Court the
amount of the judgment ordered a
reconyeyance, whereupon Van Giesen
appealed to this Court.
The ground on which the Supreme
Court went was the single short point
that the existence of the order, whe-
ther valid or not was what made
the sale disastrous We See no rea-
son for not accepting this conclusion
However vexatious the conduct of the
appellee may have been, his property
should not be sacrificed by reason OF
the act of a court"

The plans, beyond this, are still in
embryo, and neither the trustees of the
Brewer or of the Bishop estate care to
give out any particulars. In speaking
of the matter thisimorning z. K. Myers,
of the Brewer estate, stated that he
could give nothing out, but acknowl-
edged that the deal was being serious
ly considered. The Bishop estate trus-
tees were more free to talk but did moi
care to go into details. One stated
that the move was being made in order
to develop the park property, which, as
he said, is now paying taxes, but bring
ing in no income. He stated that no
definite plans for the use to which the
property would be put had been made.
Faxon Bishop stated that the plan
was to run an alleyway through the
middle of the block, similar to that in
the Young block and that the matter
was being taken up between the two
estates but was in too little advanced a
stage to talk of definitely.

CORONER'S JURY

Last night the coroner's jury re-
turned verdict in the matter of the
death of M. ]. McGannon to the effect
that the man ended this life through
a fracture of the skull and hemorrhage
of the brain, cause to this jury un-
known"
This was the man picked up at the
corner of Bethel and Hotel streets late
Monday night and who died on being
examined a second time at the Queens
hospital.
DIR. Frietas testified that he had
carefully examined the patient, wash
ed his face free of blood and had
discovered discoloration Of the left
eye and a bruise under the right eye.
The gums were slightly beaten back
and the teeth were also little smash
ed, but there was nothing to indicate
a serious condition.
Presumably, while drunk, McGan-
non fell heavily and struck the curb
stone.

At meeting of the Bishop Estate
trustees which will take place this aft
ernoon report of special committee
appointed to take up the matter of i'm
provements in the block bounded by
King, Fort, Hotel and Bishop streets
will be made, which will be the open
ing wedge towards the development OF
the real estate now occupied by the
park opposite the Young Hotel. The
plans are being discussed as between
the Bishop estate, which owns the park
property and the makai end Of the
block, and the Brewer estate, which
owns the maIka end Of the block.
The plan, as outlined will be to run a
twenty foot street through where the
Bulltein office now stands, which will
give an outlet to the rear of the stores
on King street and for the buildings
which will be erected on the Waikiki
side of the block. New warehouses
are to be built in the interior of the
block, to which the street mentioned
will give access.

ROLLED IN
AALA PARK
OLD MAN COMES TO TOWN FOR
A SPREE FROM THE ISLAND OF
HAWAII

occasionally a Rube hits Honolulu
from some island suburb, with glad
rags, roll and thirst, and loses all
except the thirst before he returns to
the tall timbers of Hawaii, Maui or
Kauai
Such a thing has come to pass once
more. Robert Lindsay of Hawaii. who
had not ben to Honolulu for thirty
months, donned his best togs three
weeks ago and landed in the metro
polls with considerable money ito
transact little important business. -
The spree in which he INDUCED his de-
light at again seeing the capital city.
after thirty long months, may not have
been with malice aforethought. but it
was nevertheless as thorough as if il
had been long and carefully planned.
Subconsciously, Lindsay had a deep
rooted desire to swim in BOOZE, though
he was here on business. He got the
drink, all right, and his pocketbook
diminished accordingly, until last night
at ten o'clock with his last four dollars
in his pocket he Topped on to a bench
in Aala park to rest and digest what
he had been drinking.
Soon the electric lights of the swarm
of Japanese hotels and dives ON Bere-
tania street got to dancing in a queer
way until he couldn't tell which were
stars and which were Jap lodging
house lights.
1t was about this moment that along
came Cotrell and Frost. Now, away
back in his Pennsylvania youth, Lind
say had been touched by frost, FROST
bitten, but last night he was touched by
Cotrell or so it is alleged, who slipped
a greedy hand into the old mans pocket
and extracted the four silver simoleons.
simultaneously Policeman Kumeku,
who had soft-footed after Cotrell, ex-
tracted his club from its resting place
ana placed Cotren under arrest.
Rolling a drunk, eh!" remarked the
cop, well, roll on, thou deep, dark vii
lain roll, roll on! Ayon the prison
yawns for thee"
Those were not exactly Kumeku's
words but the effect was just the same
and Cotyell is now in Jail trying to con-
vince Chief of Detectives Joe Leal that
he had found the four dollars lying at
the drunken mans feet and was in the
act of restoring them to the old mans
| pocket when the policeman so rudely
! interrupted the deed of a good Samari-
tan.
Cotrell is a piece of driftwood, as far
as can be ascertained, sort Of a beach
comber, one of those chaps lHred tc
Hawaii by a colored picture in a rail
road guide-book who come hither tc
recline on velvety banks under droop
ing palms, to be famed by soothing
breezes and have pretty flower-dresseC
maidens fetch them bananas and turtle
eggs. Now he is reclining in cemen
cell.

LOOKS MUCH LIKE
EXTRA DIVIDEND

If the indications of the stock mar
ket are worth anything, there will
be an extra dividend paid on the Eva
stock in the near future. There has
been a rumor to this effect for some
time and the purchase of one block
of 700 shares at $1,000 looks very
much as though someone had been
able to obtain some inside informa-
ton. The stock sold on the Exchange
today first at $2S.87 1-2 and then went
to $29. o, r. & L. sold for S12O5O in
a couple of deals.

The LOST DREOGE
is NOW PAID FOR

By the arrival of a check for $32 1895
from the San Francisco Office of the
U. S. Fidelity and Guaranty Company
to its local agents, the Henry Water
house Trust Co., in favor of the Terri
tory of Hawaii, the incident of the lost
dredge is closed to the complete advan-
tage of the Territory. The claim
against Cotton Bros. & Co., of San
Francisco, was contested in the Cir
cult and Supreme courts here and car
ried to the Supreme Court of the United
States by the losing defendant. 1t
was on October 7, 1906, that the de-
fendant's appeal bond to the last court
Of resort was filed. The claim to the
surety company on the bond was made
by the Territory on April last and the
letter enclosing the check to the agents
is dated April &c, which is the earliest
possible instant after receiving the de-
mand.
Although the amount of the bond
was $4,000, the check is for 1895 more
settling costs and everything. In ar
irving at the amount the managers OF
the San Francisco agency used the fol-
lowing calculation: Amount of judg-
ment, $4,000; court costs, $40; inter
est at 6 per cent from May 27, 1909, to
April 27, 1909, $7375; total, $685. All
that remains now is the furnishing of a
certified copy of satisfaction of judg-
ment to the San Francisco Office of the
U S, Fidelity and Guaranty Co. in or

SUGAR WEIGHING FRAUD INDICTMENTS
PIONEER Mill CROP
ABOVE ESTIMATE

Pioneer Mill is expected to run at
least 1000 tons over the estimate made
in the annual report of the manager
of the plantation. f. Klamp, of Hack
field and company, who returned from
trip to Hawaii by the Mauna Loa
this morning, stated that it was ex-
pected that the yield would be at least
27,OOO tons. The estimate in the an
nual report was $4,000 tons.
In regard to other plantations for
which Hackfeld and company are
agents Mr.. Klamp stated tina; the fol-
lowing crops were expected Kekaha.
10000; Oahu, 34,500; Lihue, $4,000;
Koloa, $500. These all follow the ori-
ginal estimates. From other sources,

which have received recent advices
from Kauai it is stated that Koloa
will probably run wen over the esti-
mate of Mr.. Klamp, and that the same
will be true of Kekaha. The latter
plantation has benefited greatly by it's
new ditch, which brings down what
is called sweetened water from the
mountains. This is water containing
considerable mountain soil which the
water deposits around the cane and
which acts as fertilizer The Koloa
