Government Carrying
The Banana Fight
To the Bitter End

Attorney General Lindsay was seen
this morning with reference to the
celebrated banana case. He stated
that the demurrer of Attorney Peters
had been sustained Dy Judge Cooper
but that an appeal would be taken Ia
the supreme court, for which the
papers were being prepared.
The attorney general stated that il
people started to plant bananas now
they would do so at their own risk
Should the appeal be upheld, the pei,
sons planting bananas would be pros,
ecuted.
AS to the grUbbing out of bananas,
the attorney general said that none
of that work was being done at pres
ent, and that none is contemplated
just now.
At the headquarters of DR.. Mccoy
it was stated that, before the case
was decided, the grubbing of banana
stumps had been abandoned. The
reason given was that the expense
was too great, and the laborers were
required for other duties.
The question at issue" said Judge
Lindsay, lis whether the Board OF
Health has power to make certain
rules, 1t is not question of whether
or not they can grub out bananas.
The men of the cleanup brigade
are inspecting cutters and removing
dirt and leaves from them. DR.. NC
Coy asks the cooperation of the pub
lie in reporting any mosquitoes seen
near houses. Upon the receipt OF a
telephone message, men will be sent
to look around the premises ana
locate the mosquito breeding place.

Airman Gets

Kenneth Gordon, aviator, charged
with gross cheat, was again remanded
in the police court this morning.

peared for the defense and asked for
another continuance in order that de-

ANOTHER DEATH
FROM SMALLPOX

There was another death from
smallpox in quarantine late yesterday
afternoon, and a death from castro
enteritis this morning Both victims
were children.
This was the only development
since The Stars report on the stu.
alton yesterday Several cases are
still under surveillance, but so far the
doctors have been unable to decide
whether it is merely fever or the
forerunner of more smallpox cases.
DR.. Marshall is now serving half a
day with the federal quarantine an
thorities and half a day with the san
itary committee. This has been rem
dered necessary owing to the large
amount of work that has been added
to the staff by the fresh cases of
smallpox.

There was a warm fifteen minutes
or so at the meeting OF the harbor
commissioners yesterday afternoon as
briefly mentioned in The Stars sec
ond edition. For time it looked as
if F. B. McStocker and Emil Berndt
would not rest content till something
more than an explanation was given.
1t all came about like a clap of
thunder, From a quiet discussion of
the Hilo wharf matter, there came a
change to a strenuous denial by Berndt
of an insinuation by McStocker that
there had been some underhand work
in connection with the opposition
shown to the railroad company.
Berndt came to his feet with a
bound and spoke straight out on the
subject. He declared that he was al
ways in the open, and that he was alb
solutely unbiased in the matter. He
was considering everything in con-
nection with the Hilo wharf, just as
he would consider anything in con-
nection with his own busines firm. His
only desire was to be fair and square,
and he repudiated the suggestion that

IN HARBOR COMMISSION

he had in any way done any under
hand work.
McStocker said that he was surpris-
ed at Berndt's remarks, and added
that he did not mean it that way.
Wakefield was also hot about the
insinuation of unfairness, declaring
that everything was done in the open
and with due regard to the interests
of everybody. Wakefield said that he
had obtained copies of the resolutions
passed at the big public meeting, while
on the Coast. He had studied the
whole question on the way down, and
he had made up his mind on the ST.
ezra.
McStocker inquired as to why Wake
field had not consulted with him as
we'll as with Berndt and Mccarthy.
The answer was that Wakefield
thought it waste of time to talk to
McStocker.
Things were getting very warm
when the chairman said that it would
be better to drop that kind of talk
and get down to business.
