ACKNOWLEDGED
Brewery Admits the Power of
Liquor Board and Cases
Are NoI-ProSSed.
(From Wednesdays Advertiser.)

Acknowledging the power of the
rules and regulations made by that body,
the, attorneys of the Honolulu Brewing
and Mating Co. yesterday morning ne.
tilted the attorney-general' s department
that they were willing to abide by those
rules. AS a result, when the criminal
cases instituted against the brewery as
a corporation and against Charles Bart.
lett as its manager came up before
Judge Whitney in the circuit court,
nolle prosequis were entered in both in.
stances.
In asking that the cases be mol.
pressed, Deputy Attorney General Lor.
rim Andrews said, "'The idea in bring.
ing these criminal proceedings was to
stop the deliveries of beer and liquor
on Sunday which made more or less
of farce of the Sunday laws. We
are very glad to see the brewery,
which is a substantial concern in this
city, taking that view of the matter. 4"
Previous to the motion for depressing
the cases coming before the court, At
torney w. A. Kinney, of the firm of
Kinney, Ballou, Prosser and Anderson,
outlined to the court the stand of the
brewery in the following words:
''The attorney.general' s department
has taken the position and practically
ruled from their standpoint that deliv-
cries of beer by the brewery from the
cold storage on Sunday, even though it
is conceded that the beer was sold
bona fde on week day, would be a
violation of the Sunday law. Counsel
for the brewery felt some doubts about
that, but after reviewing the matter
carefully we are of the opinion that
while some individual jury might rule
otherwise, that if the matter was pass
ed upon by the judges of the courts
the ruling probably would be in ac
cord with the position taken by the
attcmey-general's department.
1--WE therefore We're confrnOted with
the proposition whether we should at
tempt to get a ruling to the contrary
from jury as against the rulings that
would probably be made by the courts,
and all of us were of ore opinion, and
the officials of the brewery also, that
we did not want to occupy any such
position. The officials of the brewery
Informed us if it was our view that
that would be the position taken by
the courts, they were perfectly willing
to discontinue all such Sunday deiiv-
cries, that is, all deliveries of beer on
Sunday from the cold storage as long
as the present license commissioners
maintained the pesent rules and regu.
lations in regard to sales and delivery
of beer on Sunday.
"We have so intimated to the at
torney.general that the brewery will
undertake to see that there are no such
deliveries on Sunday and to bring it.
self into accord with the ruling of the
department and the ruling that prob
ably will be sustained by the judges of
the court"

BAROMETER LOWER
THAN FOR TEN YEARS

The weather continued cold yester-
day. This gladdened the hearts of
many of the older kamaainas, who rec
ognized return of oldtime conditions.
When asked what he thought about
the weather, Captain Campbell said,
"Why, this is what we always used
to expect in the old days-a kona wind
and rain, with drop in the tempera-
ture. 1t may be tritle early, but it
is just what we ought to have.''
On the corresponding day of 1908 the
maximum temperature was eighty-two,
the minimum seventy-one, making an
average of seventy.siX and a fraction,
Yesterday the maximum was seventy
six, the minimum siXty-three, making
an average of trifle less than seventy.
\ noticeable feature of the weather
report is that the barometer is lower
on this date than it has been for ten
years. Yesterday it was still dropping
slowly, but steadily at 29.SS. In these
latitudes the barometer moves much
less than in the northern. climes. Oeca-
slonal disturbances in the way of hur-
ricanes in more easterly longitudes
make a tluttcr of the mercury, but the
barometer falling SO low at this time
of year is quite remarkable.
At the time of going to press the
sky was clear but clouds were banked
on the southern horizon and there IL
nothing to show that the cold wave and
rain are pau,

VVASHEE WASHEE
MEN GET STUCK
Little Gamblers Are Arrested, but
Big Fellows With Pull
Are Not Molested.

Six more Chinese were arrested yes
terday afternoon by Officer Apana and
booked at the police station on the
charge of gambling. 1t Will be an.
other matter, however, to convict
them, convictions being as scarce as
hens teeth in comparison with the
number of arrests.
The officers claim that the new law
passed by the legislature at the last
session, making barred doors and OBJ
structed entrances prima facie evidence
of gambling, is not helping them much,
for the Chinese have got wise and are
playing practically in the open. In
stead of resorting to locks and bolts,
they are keeping their money out of
sight and are playing with chips and
counters, which are doubtless cashed
after the game is finished.
However, it is noteworthy that only
in very rare instances are the big men
being caught by the officers. Men who
are suspected of running percentage
games are not brought in. 1t is the
poor devils of laundrymen, who work
seven days in the week and only oc-
cdsiOHdIlS tdhe Hdll nOur OIL from
welding the tlatiron to WOO the god
dess of fortune to the tune of about
seven cents, who are arrested. This
makes a fine showing on the police
court blotter, however. When it is an
nounced that Officer So.and-So has ar
rested eleven Chinese for gambling,
the general public does not know
whether it is bunch of poor laundry
men playing a quiet little game among
themselves, such as is played at the
clubs and bridge parties throughout
the city, or a few of the big gamblers
who are running regular percentage
game of fan-tan or paikau. Generally,
however, it is the former.
Nine alleged gamblers were dis
charged by Judge Andrade yesterday
morning. Same old story-no evidence.
The case against another was mol
pressed, in the hope that he would
come through with some information
that would convict others. He didn t.
