Tong Chau was not arrested on a
formal charge of selling opium but Of
being unlawfully in the country.
Nevertheless, the authorities found
opium in his place and seized it, and
another charge viii undoubtedly be
placed against him.
Since the new Federal law went into
effect prohibiting the importation into
the United States of opium, except for
medicinal purposes and then under the
most stringent regulations, the price OF
the poppy drug has risen amazingly.
Five tael tins that formerly sold for
$3.50 are now worth 500 to $2s, and
hard to get at the price. Getting qd-
vance information that the pr0hibif0ry
law was to be passed by Congress, some
of the wealthy Chinese Of Honolulu,
as well as those Of the States, invested
large sums in opium. which they i'm

v IA 7 is AN
ORIG | NAL
PACKAGE?
Case Argued
in Supreme Court
Yetesrday.

Is fve-tael tin of opium an original
packagea
Upon the answer of the Supreme
Court of the Territory, or possibly of
the Supreme Court of the United
States, to this question, hangs the value
of thousands of tins of the poppy drug
that are now hidden away in various
secret places in Honolulu and elsewhere
in the United States. If the fve-tael
tin is an original package, the owners
of the opium may sell it openly at the
market price and without molestation
by the police authorities of the Terri
tory or of the United States. If it is
not an original package, the owners of
the drug are violating the law by sell
ing it or even having it in their posses
sion-and the opium is then, or will
be, worth, in time, several times the
present market price.
The "original package case" was
argued at length yesterday afternoon
before the Supreme Court and was then
appeared on behalf of the defendant
and Deputy County Attorney Fred Mil
verton for the Territory.
The defendant is Lam Zip Kee, who
was arrested by the police and con-
victed in the district court on the
charge of having on April 80, 1909,
sold to one All 10y opium without first
obtaining license to sell poisonous
drugs, and without physician s pre-
scription.
The opium sold was whole five-tael
tin, part of consignment originally
shipped by Chinese opium firm in
Hongkong to H. C. Playfair, of San
Francisco. The defendant imported
the opium in the tin, with other tins
of like character, from a Chinese firm

GOVERNOR NOW
CONSIDERING
NAT TER
Nothing Definite as Yet
Regarding Special
Session.

Governor Frear has not yet definite
Iy decided whether or not he will call
a special session of the Legislature, but
it appears extremely probably that he
will, and that the call will be issued
very soon, possibly within few days.
However, it is not probably that any
action will be taken until after Tues
day, at soonest, when the Governor IS
conference will hold another session
and continue the endeavor to arrive at
some understanding in regard to what
action Congress is to be asked to take
laws.
Governor Frear is booked to sail for
the Coast on November 6, though he
stated yesterday that he was not alb
solutely certain that he would go. But
in view of the difficulty of getting
passage to the Coast, he thought it
wise to book far enough ahead SO that
he would not be obliged to give up
Ehis trip at the last minute for lack
of accommodations. However, if a
special session is called, the Governor
will not be able to get away on the
date mentioned but will have to post
pone his trip until later.
Solons Will Be Paid.

they might be called upon to "work
