ODDS AND ENDS
IN THE COURTS

Judge Cooper and a jury are today
engaged in the trial of the three as
sumpsit cases of H., Hackfeld & Co.
versus Y. All Kong, doing business
as Shing Kee The suits, are for
rather small amounts and are based
upon three promissory notes. 1t is
understood that the defense will be
that, while All Kong does not deny
having signed the promissory notes,
yet he contends that he did it as a
representative of the firm and not
personally, and consequently is not
to be held personally responsible for
their payment
The Territorial grand jury will
meet Friday to consider such matters
as may be brought before it by the
city attorney.
Liquor Case.
The trial of Roger James, indicted
on two counts, one for selling liquor
without license and the other fsr
receiving stolen goods, is set for next
Friday in Judge Robinson's court. 1t
is not expected, however, tina. the
cases will come to trial at all, and
no jury has been summoned.
All the cases remaining on the
criminal calendar of the circuit court
will be set for trial by Judge Robin
son next Saturday morning.
Sentence Of Fend.
Chung Nung, the Chinese convicted
yesterday of the crime of having
raped little four-year-old Hawaiian
gitl comes up for sentence by Judge
Robinson next Saturday. The law
prescribes either death or life impris.
onment. Judge Robinson is known to
be opposed on principle to the death
penalty so, as the law allows him tc
use his discretion, it is fully expected
that he will sentence Chung Nung to
Imprisonment at hard labor for the
rest of the Chinaman's life.

SCHEDULES GOOD,
SAYS PRES. JUSTICE
TWO of Them Are Being Examined
BY Committee, and One May Be
Accepted.

President NJ Z. Justice of the Cen.
trail Association stated Saturday that
the schedule committee is examining
two schedules at the present time. He
expects one of them to be approved
with possibly few alterations. 1t
is pointed out that a long stretch of
games on any ground must be avoided
because of the new ruling that pro.
yides a guarantee of $50 for every
game with no percentage of the gate
receipts. This would be hard to meet
with twelve game stretch, and does
not look good even with nine, al
though three series may be hard to
avoid at times.

Justice Saturday announced that the
proposition OF requiring each club to

ferred until the annual meeting In
September.
Many c. A. magnates have held the
opinion that the question is one
which would necessitate changing the
league constitution. This is not true
however. Justices idea being simply
one that provides side agreement
among the clubs. Despite this, Presi,
dent Justice does not feel like sub
hitting the bond matter unless he
can have the magnates around him
and explain his idea in person. AS
long as there is to be no league meet

should be called especially for the
purpose
As a result, the Central Association
clubs win be bound in just the same
way that they were last year. The
president and secretaries Of the club

NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-Radical and
important changes in the football
rules for 1912 we're announced tonight
by the rules committee. The objects
are to aid in scoring more touch
downs, and eliminate much of the
kicking game.
One down has been added to the
three in which the ball must be adj
vanced ten yards. A forward pass if
legally captured ten yards back of the
goal. line, is allowed under the new
rules To make such play possible
on fields that do not have ten yards
clear behind the goal, the length OF
the field will be 100 yards instead OF
10. The kick-off will be made from
the forty yard line instead of from
/ the center OF the field.
4 The onside kick is eliminated as be.
| ing unnecessary The forward pass
which under the old rules is allowed
twenty yards, may go as far as pos
sible in 1912. The committee mem
bers say that player cannot recover
"a forward pass that is thrown more
! than twenty-five yards. The present
restrictions upon the man who re
]; ceives the forward pass still prevail.
i Following touchbaek, the ball Is
kicked from the twenty yard line in
stead of from the twenty-five yart
line. The intermission between the
first and second, and the third ant
fourth quarters are changed from two
minutes to one minute.
4 A touchdown will score six point.
instead of five with an additiona
point for successful goal kick.
