Letters From
The People
A YEAR AGO TODAY.

Editor AdveTtiser:-I am anxious
that this letter shall reach you in time,
that you may insert it in your issue
of June II, the anniversary of the
tragic accident at the Hackfeld wharf
when l stood face TO face with death
in its most awful form-and from
which several people will carry the
marks Of someone s crimina, careless
ness to the end Of their lives.
This is only that may send greeting
and thankfulness to the many charm
ing people of Honoulu-stranger then,
but friends forevermore, who were 50
kind and thoughtful for US during the
days of uncertainty and suffering.
1t is also that | may register the
hope, that your officials have SO lighted
and safeguarded your wharves and
streets that there are no more death
traps in beautiful Honolulu.
Mrs. Green IS quite recovered physi-
cally, and while her nerves viii never
let her forget that night of horror. we
are planning on our trip around the
world, which begins in April, 1911, a
long stay in the Paradise of the Pacific.
With cordial regard. yours sincerely,
THOS. Z. GREEN.

FAVORS LOWREY SUGGESTION.

Editor Advertiser:-It certainly is
foolish for the members of our mer-
chants association to tell Uncle Sam
to reduce the size of his building here
if the site selected is not large enough.
One would think it is their own build
ing he is putting up. They forgot it
is United States building, erected for
the accommodation Of L. S officials.
Are not some people talking for their
own personal gain! Does it make any
difference whether or not another year
is spent in preparing for this building
provided we get what we want?
think the suggestion that .wo build
ings be asked for, if the lot IS too
small, should have met with greater
consideration at the hands of this body,
and the proposal by Mr.. Lowrey in this
morning 5 issue of your paper could
well be taken up at Washington with
good prospects of winning. And it is
a splendid suggestion, and should meet
the approval Of all parties. The bust
ness community want the postotfice
down town. for convenience Of the
present generation. As to the Judi
ciary, il can well be farther. away from
the business center, | would suggest
that the Territory furnish a site for
the Judiciary building. that the present
Judiciary grounds be used for the pur,
pose, and that Uncle Sam erect the
building, one large and commodiouo
enough for both territorial and federal
courts. Could not our Governor. while
East, take it up with the authorities
at Washington, and save time2 If met
with their approval, it need not much
delay the beginning of the erection of
the postotlice and customhouse on the
site selected. With Honolulu divided
on the matter, as it IS. their is uncer-
tainlv as TO what is to be done and
delay any way. 1t is said that a hun
dred thousand is needed to repair the
territorial judiciary building. This IS
a way to save that sum.

.DAVOUST CASE IS
FINALLY SETTLED
Husband Sued City of Alameda
for Death of Wife Twelve
Years Ago

OAKLAND, June 17-Settlement of
the famous damage case of Davoust
against the city of Alameda was made
today, II years after the. passing
of Mrs. Davoust. for whose death her
husband, Martial Davoust, sued the
municipality for $4,000 damages. An
agreement was reached between City
Attorney NJ. w. Simpson and Davoust's
attorneys, ]. C. Campbell and Emil
Nusbaumer, whereby the city of Ala
media is to pay Davoust $4,000.
Mrs Davoust met her death Septem
Der %, 1898, while crossing a vacant lot
on her way to Versailles avenue sta
ton. 1t was early in the evening, and
she did not see live wire belonging
to the municipal electric light plant.
The wire, which was in a coil on the
ground, directly across the beaten
path, entangled the woman. She died
in terrible agony a short time after.
Judge Ellsworth nonsuited Davoust
when the case first came to trial in his
court. He held that municipality was
not responsible for damages that were
the result of negligence. The supreme
court. in reversing him, held that a
municipality was not responsible if the
act that caused the damage was gov
ernmental act, but that if a city chose
to go into business like private in
dividual, it was responsible for dam
age done by negligence. The city of
Alameda then, as now, owned and
operated its electric light plant
On the occasion of the second trial,
which also took place before Judge
a OaV0uS
$4,000 damag Because of errors in
the trial, Judge Ellsworth granted a
new trial, which is now pending. 1t
will be dismissed, however, as soon as
the agreement arrived at by the attor
NeYs is formally ratified.
