JURY IND|CTS
MAX SCHLEMMER
Charges of importing Contract
Laborers and Of Poaching
on Bird Reservation.

Three indictments were brought in
yesterday against Max Schlemmer, for
mer liking of Laysan, . by the federal
grand jury, and he is now under arrest
on bench warrant. Two Of the indict-
ments charge him with having brought
aliens unawfully into the United
States and the third charges that he
is guilty of having poached on the fed
eral bird reservation. Schlemmer was
released on $1,000 bond. The principal
witnesses against HIM at the trial will
probably be the twenty-three Japanese
ter Thetis, and who, after having served
terms OF twenty-four hours each in Jail,
are now held as witnesses.
Schlemmer is not the only victim of
the grand jury's activities. l.. All
Leong, the prominent Chinese merchant
of Honolulu, is indicted for bigamy, it
being charged that he had wife in
China as well as one in Honolulu. All
Leong is familiar figure in the
courts, but this is the first time he has
ever been in difficulty that promises to
be as serious as that of the bigamy
charge.
Goo Pang, Chinese recently cap
tured by the federal officers with opium
in his possession, was indicted on the
charge of receiving and concealing
smoking opium.
Chang Chan is indicted on a charge
similar to that under which Goo Pang
rests.
Y. Nishida is charged by the grand
jury with making moonshine.

arrested last week on the charge of
bootlegging, were up before Commits.
