legally" said Mr.. Miller our APP
peal from Judge Kohlsaat's ruling is
now pending in the federal supreme
court and counsel for appellants con
ceives that this court ought not to
proceed with their trial on the indict-
ments while the appeal is in the su-
prene court. or at least not until that
court shall have had an opportunity Of
passing finally on the questions inyolv-
ed therein, testing tire VALIDITY of the
criminal provisions OF the Sherman
antitrust law.
"Your honor ought 10 stay your
hand until that court has determined
their questions. 1t is our contention
that the tendency of the appeal as per-
fected operates as stay and prevents
this court from exercising any rights
in the case until the supreme court
proceedings are disposed of. However.
if it is TOO long to wait until the su-
prene court finally passes on the mat
ter we ask that you stay the pro-
ceediiigs in the trial until the appel
ants have an opportunity, at least OF
presenting the question to the supreme
court"
Levy Meyer OF counsel for the de-
PENDANTS after delay had been grant
ed by Judge Carpenter, said that the
application for stay order from the
supreme court would be made before
Chief Justice White at Washington,
probably on Thursday morning.

US. COMMISSIONER AND ATTORNEY
WRANGLE OVER OPIUM CASE

An acrimonious wrangle between
Commissioner Davis and Assistant
District Attorney Rawlins marked the
close of the Hilo opium case investi-
cation before the commissioner yes
terday afternoon. Each accused the
other of making a farce" of the third
case, which resulted in the discharge
of Fred Lowe, who had been detained
for perjury.
Following is the conclusion of the
running report by the Star reporter
begun in the second edition yester.
day. Captain Peterson, the Matson's
warehouse keeper, was testifying In
the case of Policeman Keomaka for
perjury where the report was suspend
ed. He had told of the suitcase
brought ashore by Engineer Barker
from the Wilhelmina, and continued
thus:
kama and Barker were in CONVEX
sation, while Keomaka was standing
by. Later they all trailed into the
Office of witness. The suitcase was
lying in the presence of all during the
conversation already mentioned. In
the office, kama told Keomaka that
it was all right"
The charge against Keomaka was
based on sworn statement made to
District Attorney Breckons that he
was not in the warehouse that night
namely, the 18th of May.

range, with special consideration of
the various factors which have had an
influence on the condition of range
grasses, and on the preservation of
the range. The statements regarding
the early conditions are compared di-
rectly with what is known as to the
present state of the range. The
writer has travelled over all the West
ern states in investigating the range
industry. The problems met by west
ern ranchmen are essentially the same
as those which present themselves to
the ranchers of the Territory, and the
application of the experience of the
Western states can readily be made
by the individual rancher.
''As in the Western states so in this
Territory the Importance of the forest
cover of certain lands must be consid-
cred. Then there are the dangers of
overgrazing, the relative values of
various grasses, the need of improv-
ing the range by the introduction of
new grasses and the wider use OF
known species, and the necessity of
raising more forage crops to supple
ment the natural range and to produce
better quality of meat. The grass
cover of the range must be carefully
considered, for in Hawaii the dangers
from erosion by wind and the surface
evaporation are greater than in any
state on the mainland. Fortunately
there are no predaceous wild animals
in Hawaii, and sheep, therefore do not
have to be herded. This fact increases
the carrying capacity of the range
lands, for sheep in open formation and
allowed to Craze at will do not injure
the range so much as when they are
closely herded.
"The recent great Improvement il
the range industry of Hawaii is suf
ficient evidence of the progressiveness
of the ranchers. It is believed that the
discussion of the Western ranges from
a historical standpoint will bring out
several points of interest to the ranch
ers of Hawaii"

Montana Millionaire After
District Attorney BreCkOnS
Because Of ExtraditiOn

Examiner: Acquitted of the charge
of smuggling opium after a short and
spectacular trial at Honolulu, Chris
Snyder, the Dillon, Mont, millionaire
miner and cattleman, returned to San
Francisco on the Steamship Honolu-
Ian yesterday. Indicted by the Federal
Grand Jury at the island port several
weeks ago, Snyder was arrested as he
stepped off the liner Manchuria on
May 9Th and taken back to the islands
for trial.
AS a result of the incident, it is pos
sible that United States District Attor-
ney Robert w. Breckons of the Ha-
waiian Islands may lose his position,
Claiming that Breckons used his Off
cial position to bring about an indict-
ment when there was absolutely moth
ing to substantiate the charge, Snyder
will lay the facts before the Attorney
General at Washington.

Most Rigid Rules Of
Quarantine Against
HaWaii'S New Fruit Pest

SACRAMENTO, June II. - The
most rigid quarantine regulation ever
put into effect between California and
the Hawaiian islands will soon be in
force in the nature of cooperative
measures between the steamship com.
panies and the California State Hor-
ticultuTal Commission. This order
will mean that every passenger ship
ping from the islands for California
must agree to have his baggage-in-
Guiding personal luggage-inspected
by officials of the State Commission
upon arrival in San Francisco. THIS
order is deemed necessary for prote2-
ton against introduction of the Med
iterranean fruit fly, one of the most
dangerous pests to the fruit industry
known.
State Commissioner J. w. Jeffrey
has arranged for cooperation with
the steamship companies, so that
each ticket sold from the islands will
contain a signed agreement by the
passenger to allow the horticultural
authorities of this state to go through
his baggage.
AS announced several days ago, the
Mediterranean fruit fly has secured
