GANG in Garrett

enemies In the garrett Of the insane
asylum, long telephone communications
between Dr. Wayson and members OF
"his gang Punchbowl spooks,
charges Of attempt at muzzling, and
renewed charges Of persecution and
molestation were jumbled together in
the hearing Of DR.. Ateherley, before
the Lunaey Commission, yesterday.
Dr. Ateherley made an effort TO have
an inmate Of the insane asylum, ad'
mittcd to be violent, subpoenaed, on
the plea that he wanted show the mem.

ed like. Also he wanted an inmate Of
Kalihi Receiving Station brought up TO
Jarret's office. He subpoenaed every
person that could have the remotest
connection with the case, and then per
sisted in asking them questions hav-
ing no apparent bearing on the subject
under discussion.
Chester Doyle and his cocaine fits in
the storm sewer seemed to have made
the strongest impression upon the un-
fortunate doctor, and time and again
the old story was rung into the hear
ing in some way or other.
Atcherley insisted that his arrest in
the editorial rooms of the Advertiser
was caused either by Wayson or "his
gang because they did not want him
(Atcherley) to make public the facts
which he was giving to Editor Walter
G. Smith at the time that the arrest
was made.
DR.. Wayson was the first witness
called to the stand during the after.

arrest for shooting up the Wayson
house, and Atcherley seemed to be try

"Did you have any reason for want

ton.
81 did not, " came the reply.
"Do you think that ! am insanef"

or a criminal"
"WhyY"
because no one but a criminal or
an insane person would be eowardly
enough to shoot into man g house
and run the risk of injuring or killing
some of his family"
Atcherley tried to get Wayson to
admit that he knew who was doing
the shooting on the night prior to the
morning that he (Atcherley) was ar
rested. Wayson declined to admit any
such thing Then Atcherley wanted to
: know if Wayson had not been warned
s that his house would be shot up by

he, there would have been no neces
