History of Pests.
Camp Wilhelm was formerly an in
fantry post but of recent years has
been occupied by Philippine Scouts.
Camp Wallace, Union, was for many
years a cavalry post and was occu-
pied in turn by the 3rd cavalry dur
ing the early insurrectionary days,
the 18th cavalry, the End cavalry, the
Sth cavalry and the 10th cavalry. Il, r
ing the last year or so, the post has
been garrisoned by Philippine Scouts.
The reorganization of the troops
in this division makes the number
of organizations less, but the number
of soldiers serving will be about the
same, as the cavalry regiments have
been ordered filled up to their quota
of 100 men per troop and the in
frantry organizations to 150 men to
a company.
Two Camps Retained.
Some speculation was INDUCED in
when the order first came as to the
abandonment of Camps McGrath and
Statsenburg, but it is understood tat
Major General ]. Franklin Bell has
recommended that these two import
ant stations be kept, at least for some
time to come. The Sth cavalry, form
erly at Camp McGrath, has been
changed to. Fort Mckinley and the
department of Mindonao, while The
last cavalry regiment to be stationed
at Sta+senhurg, the 14th, has gone to
the States.

Three PHILIPPINE army POSTS
DISMANTLED And ABANDONED

The new plan of concentration Cf
troops in larger posts in the Philip
pine Islands has resulted in the aban-
donment of three posts in the islands
according to word received at local
army headquarters.
The post at Camp BOSNIAN had been
Wilhelm, Tayabas; Camp BOSNIAN,
Guimaras and Camp Wallace, I'm. III.
The post at Camp Josman had been
occupied by the oath infantry. This
regiment has been sent to other posts.
principally Camps McGrath and Stot-
senburg, and Jossman is being dis.
mantled. All of the buildings are be-
ing taken down and the materia, Is
to be sent to Manila with the excep.
ton of that part of which is Geemed
of no further practical value for any
purpose. Such worthless material IS
to be destroyed. The same rule
applies to Camps Wilhelm. and Wal
lace.
Cost Much Money
At all of these posts muca money
has been spent by the military in
the erection of pumping anG ice
plants. The machinery is Tor the
most part in good order and is being
taken down and sent to the depot
quartermaster in Manila. 1t will be
thoroughly overhauled anG made
ready for use in case it should be
needed.
The order under which this reor-
ganization is taking place lays Dar;i-
cular stress on economy, and the re-
suit is that very little of the material
of which the buildings in these three
posts are constructed will be wasted.

SUPREME COURT RULES
IN FAVOR OF TERRITORY
IN "PA PLELKANE" SUIT

Reversing the decision of the Court
of Land Registration and granting a
new trial, the Supreme Court yester-
day ruled in favor of the Territory in
its suit to confirm its title to lands
in Lahaina, Maui, known as PA Pele-
kane" Justice Perry dissents in part
and has filed a separate opinion.
In its syllabus the Supreme Court
asserts that the case partakes of the
nature of suit in equity and that ct
is not correct practise in such a pro-
ceeding to dismiss the application at
the close of the petitioners case on
the motion of respondent unless the
respondent also rests.
1t says further: ~The title to land
which was never awarded by the land
commission nor granted by the gov
eminent remains in the government
The Mahele or 184S did not confer IT,
tie on the chiefs to the lands therein
set apart for them.
"The award Of an ahupuaa by name
only would not pass title to a piece
of land which,. though originally q
portion of the ahupuaa, had, prior tc
the award, been permanently detached
from and taken out of the ahupuaa.
THE former governments of the
Hawaiian Islands are not to be re-
garded as foreign governments. The
courts of this Territory take judicial
notice of the laws of Hawaii which
were enacted prior to the annexation
of the Islands by the United States, as
well as of the principal facts of Ha-
waiian history, and the public records
of the Hawaiian government when
called to the attention of the court.

Washington, Aug 12-Following six
hours OF partisan debate, the House to-
night voted to unseat Representative
Theron Catin, n Republican, OF the 9th
Missouri District aud TO seat Patrick
+. Gill. the Democratic contestant In the
Gill-Catlin contested election case Mr..
Catlin was unseated on the ground that
his father and brother. who are wealthy.
spent $4,000 during his campaign, and
on the presumption that the candidate
himself must have been cognizant of the
excessive expenditure. The candidate him
self spent less than $500, which sum was
within the Missouri law limit
Mr.. Catiin Is prominent in Washington,
Newport and st. Louis society. and add-
tional interest centred In the contest be-
cause OF the recent announcement OF his
engagement to Miss Laura Merriam,

riam, OF Minnesota.
AS soon as the Democratic votes had

jority was arrayed solidIy against him.

feated for the Democratic nomination for

lin was renomlnsted by the Republicans.
