CAMP GIVES PROMISE OF BE.
COMING ONE OF THE BIG
SHIPPERS OF SOUTH.

H. A. Fink, who has been doing
assessment work on property in the
Horseshoe district, is in town, and
yesterday stated that while the camp
of Lawrence, formerly known as
Horseshoe, is not a scene of great
activity, considerable work is being
done there. Vice and Griffith are
continuing the work on their lease
and are producing some good ore.

They have four-foot ledge from
which they made a shipment of
three tons to Goldfield some time ago
which averaged over $3.50 ton.
The Brennan lease is down to a
depth of thirty feet and sinking will
be kept up until the shaft is fifty
feet deep and then crosscut will be
driven.
e. M. Lawrence, who owns the
main property, has a shaft down
200 feet and will soon start cross
cutting for the rich ore shoot en-
countered by Vice and Griffith on
their lease. He has had good values
all the way down and the crosscut
should succeed in opening up the pay
streak.

RICKEY PUTS ON BOLD FRONT.

The Carson News report of the
reading of the supreme court deci-
sion which made Honest Tom
Hickey a free man again, the Bo-
nanza culls this:
AT the conclusion of the reading
of the lengthy document, stir
started in the room and several of
the directors received the congratu-
lations of their friends over the out
come of the affair. The bailiff of the
court wrapped for order and the
room was soon cleared of the crowd
who retired to the ante-room to dis
cuss the decision. In the meantime
the court proceeded with other mat
ters as if no great decision had been
handed down and the great bank
question and the criminal prosecu-
ton that had followed in its wake.
had been by their words stopped for
ever.
Hickey, who through the entire
matter has held the center of the
stage, went Immediately to the tele-
graph Office and telegraphed to his
wife the tenor of the decision.
THE feeling that ran so high when
the bank first closed it's doors, at
once sprang up again and it was
thought several times during the day
that the life of the ex-banker was
in danger. With the bravado that
has characterized him through the
whole long and fierce battle that has
been fought since the closing of the
banks. he walked the street and talk

TERRITORY WANTS
CHANGE Of VENUE

Acknowledgement Hemenway yester
day fled in the Circuit Court motion
for change of venue in the injunction
matter of the Waikiki Sugar Company
VS.. Marston Campbell, superintendent
of Public Works. The motion, which
will be presented to Judge Robinson
Friday, is based on the allegations that
most of the witnesses, many of them
old and decrepit Hawaiians, live on
Maui; that the Territory has no funds
with which to defray the expenses of
bringing them to Honolulu to testify,
and that, moreover, the Judge who tries
the case should be in a position to 60
over the ground personally and acquaint
himself with the lay of the land.
The Waikiki Sugar Company's suit
is for an injunction to restrain the
Superintendent of Public Works from
taking more than 10000 gallons of
water a day from the Waikiki and lao
streams. This, the Territory claims, af-
fects the entire water supply of Wal
luku and Kahului

INHERITANCE TAX
CASE FINALLY PAU

The Mary Dame Hall inheritance tax
has been paid a check for $5815, the
full amount of the tax assessed against
the estate, being turned over to Treas
urer Conkling yesterday by the attor-
neys for the estate. This settles def
initely the case which has been thresh-
ed through all the courts and upon the
final decision in which rested the CON
stitutionality of the inheritance tax
law.
The fact that the defendants in the
case gave up and decided not to carry
it to the Supreme Court Of the United
States on constitutional grounds rem
ders it extremely unlikely that any
further opposition to the tax will be
made. There are several large estates
which have not yet paid the inheri-
lance tax, and it is now up to the Ter
ritory to collect these. The total due
the Territory from these sources runs
far into the thousands of dollars.

GOOD PROGRESS
IN RIOT CASE
Morita Is Found at WaiaIua and
Brought Into Court Under
Arrest.

Morita, one Of the ten japanese &C
cused Of rioting at Waipahu, and whose
nonappearance in court Monday morn
ing caused the postponement of the riot
trial, was On hand yesterday morning,
under guard, and the trial proceeded.
Morita was arrested the night before
at Waialua, and brought to town, where
he was lodged in Jail.
No explanation of his absence Mon
day was made yesterday. Attorney
Lightfoot started to make a statement,
but was prevented by the Judge, who
said ne would not take up the matter
during the hours allotted for the trial.
It will, therefore, have to 90 over to
some future date, as all the morning
is given up to the riot trial and court
adjOurns at 1890 each day Next Sat
urday, the only week day not devoted
to the trial, is holiday, so the Morita
matter Will have TO 90 over to a week
from Saturday.
Rapid progress is being made WITH
the second riot trial Two witnesses
were examined yesterday. The first one
put on was Surveyor W. A. Wall, who
was merely called to identify and ex-
plain a map of the scene of the alleged
riot. f. NJ Scoville, the principal wit
ness for the prosecution, was called and
told the same story that he has told
several times before in other strike
trials. His direct examination was fin
ished before the session ended, and he
was turned over to Lightfoot for cross
examination.

MARKHAM LOSES HIS
CASE AND HIS HOME

The jury in Judge Whitney's court
which listened to the evidence in the
case of J. P. Mendonca versus George
Markham, suit involving the owner
ship of the Markham home at Kalihi,
brought in a verdict in favor of the
plaintiff. Markham tried his own case
but failed to convince the jury that
his assertions that the homestead had
not been included in a sale of the
property to ?. E. r. Strauch and from
him to Mendonca, were well founded.
A mortgage submitted in evidence as
having been witnessed by the defend
ant himself was disastrous to Mark
ham case.

COMPANY MAY BE BARRED OIL
Lgih Infantry May Be Not Enter Camp
This Year

The Americus Light Infantry may
not get away to the State encamp-
ment at all this year. owing to the
strict regulations regarding enlist
ment of members, which precludes
all those who may have enlisted with
in the past six months The Light
Infantry has very largely recruited
ranks during the past six months,
the company having in a manner
been reorganized. Under the law
excluding such enlistments, the
ranks of the Americus Light Infan-
try would be very greatly decimated
and only comparatively few would
be eligible to go to camp at st. Sim
on's. Lieut.. McLendon said yesterday
that he did not know that this prov
ision of the law would be strictly en-
forced, in which event the company
could go to the camps with full ranks.
If the Light Infantry is to go, as orig
inally ordered, the company will
leave Americus next Saturday and
spend ten days on the coast Quite
likely some order settling the ques
tiOn will be received early this week
by the company officers, and then it
will be known whether or not the A.
