Louis spinellfs Case Was mol Pressed
in Court To-day--His Wife Is
Wanted--A Probationer Gets
ceufenea

The case Of keeping with The intenf
to sell against Louis Spinelli was mol
pressed in city court this morning at the
request Of Grand Juror Davis, but the
respondent was held under $50 bail for
another two weeks in the hopes that
in that time the officers may be able to
locate Mrs. Spnelli, who suddenly dis
appeared q week ago while the case was
being held up pending her recovery from
supposed illness. Grand Juror Davis
stated that he did not think she had
left the country, but he was uncertain
whether he would be able to find her
or not.
He said he did not want to try the
case against Mr.. SpineUi until he found
her and If she was not found by July .
he would probably ask to have the re-
spondent discharged and the half barrel
of bottled beer and pint of whiskey
seized at the house returned.

nlation that he should report to Judge
Scott on that date, which was last Mon
day, did not report to the judge and
this morning a bench warrant was issued
for him. While the officers were out
looking for him, Morren put in an ap-
pearance himself and Judge Scott sem
fenced him to serve not less than 20 or
more than p days in the county jail
at Montpelier.
It is alleged that Morren did not take
good advantage Of his probation but
continued to drink and abuse his family
which consists Of his wife and four small
children. Several times the officers have
been called to the house on complaints
from Mrs. Morren and from neighborz
that he was beating his wife. When
he did not show up IN court Monday,
Judge Scott sent word to him by an
officer that he wanted to see him and
Morren sent back word that be would
not come.
This morning Judge Scott issued d
bench warrant for him, but before the
officers could locate him this forenoon
he showed up in the court ROOM The
officers say that Morren had worked hus
three days since he was first arrested
and that his wife has supported the
family by taking IN washings.

THE JURY FINDS A
VERDICT OF GUILTY
IN THIRD DEGREE
CFrom Wednesday Advert,ser.)

Late last night the jury in the con-
spiracy cases came in with a verdict of
guilty in the third degree against Ne
goro, Maxine, Sega, Tasaka and Kawa-
mura, They had been about six hours
in reaching decision.
According to the law, conspiracy, not
being of the first or second degree is
in the third degree and shall be punish
ed by imprisonment at hard labor not
exceeding one year and by fine not ex-
ceeding $500.
1t could not be learned last night
when sentence would be pronounced.
Attorney Lightfoot made a fve.hour
address to the jury yesterday, going
far in his attacks upon the prosecution
and the planters. 1t was supposed that
in view of the assault on Sheba dur.
ing the course of the trial, he would
carefully avoid all reference to the
editor of the Shinpo. Instead of that,
Lightfoot rushed in and attacked Sheba
bitterly. While making no reference
to the attempt at assassination beyond
mentioning it as something that the
defendants regretted as much as any
body else, he took the ground that
Sheba got no more than he deserved
when he was ostracized by the Japa-
nese. Sheba, he said, was sneak who
ran to the sugar planters and tattled
to them about what his countrymen
were going to do to try to better their
condition. "Why should the sycophant
not be ostracized7' he demanded. "He
deserves it and he got what was com.
ing to him.
Professor Dening. the expert from
Japan, Lightfoot held up to ridicule
and Attorney Kinney was bitterly at
tackled because of some of the methods
he employed in trying to win his case.
Lightfoot accused him OF breaking his
solemn promise, going back on his
word, repudiating the stipulation he
agreed to in open court.
Lightfoot went farther. He attacked
the Sugar Planters Association, which
he accused, bv inference, at least, of
being the backbone of the prosecution
and furnishing the funds to employ ex-
pensive lawyers He denounced the
planters for their attitude toward the
Japanese, for trying to railroad the
defendants to Jail in order to get them
out of the way so they could "drive
the laborers back to work in the cane
fields at the old scale of wages" He
dared any man to say that the Japanese
were fairly treated or properly paid
The sugar plantations, some of them
he said, are paying dividends as high
as three and half per cent per month
on their heavily watered stock--and ye'
they can't afford to pay their laborer:
living wage. The planters have
gobbled everything from Hawaii to Ka
mai; they have combined together, and
yet because the Japanese combine tc
try and get their wages increased, the
planters have some of them arrested fol
conspiracy and try to railroad them tc
Jail.
Kinney's reply, which it had beer
expected would exceed his opening ad
dress, was short. The attorney for tn,
prosecution appeared physically worr
out and he spoke but half an hour, go
ing over some of the points made b!
