OPEN THIS MORNING

PENDANTS Against Whom Substan-

The government closed its case yes
terday against the Southern Wholesale
Grocers association and the defend
ants in the contempt proceedings. I'm
mediately Judge William I. Grubb in
statement from the bench said that
the association as an association and
J. H. McLaurin, it's president, seemed
to be connected very clearly with
violating the restraining decree. He
said that certainly the association and
Mr.. McLaurin must explain certain
points to the government.
Judge Grubb said the letter issued
by Mr.. McLaurin saying that the
operations of the association would
not be different after the decree was
prima facie evidence of violating the
decree.
The statement from Judge Grubb
from the bench began at 3:17 o'clock
yesterday afternoon and was so cleo
trio that practically every man in the
court room was standing while the
court gave an outline of what he
thought of the case up to the present

BY JUDGE GRUBB
Judge Grubb absolved w. A. Scott of
court said that so far nobody was corr
charged with writing letter making
remark about the decree The court said
he did not believe Mr.. Scott meant TO
convey an improper impression about the
decree when he said the case was dis
missed. The charges against Mr.. Scott
as director will be threshed out later.
The court granted District Attorney
Oliver D. Street until this morning at
II o'clock to designate what men of tho
so defendants against whom pertinent
charges may be substantially proven
from the government viewpoint. Against
those not designated this morning the
court intimated that he would order thsir
release as 10 the contempt case. lHe
court said that so far nobody was cor
nected with violation of the decree ex-
cept the association and Mr.. McLaurin.
The district attorney must name the other
men and Indicate what he intends TO
prove against them.
The district attorney demurred against
showing his hand but counsel for the
defense pointed out that in the large
amount of written testimony filed, against
which objections were made by the de-
fense, there might be some improper let
ters, and as the defense had never seen
them the district attorney was properly
charged with the duty of naming those
defendants and indicating what he
thought could be proven against them.
As to the courts position on the case
up to this time Judge Grubb made this
statement from the bench:

sion yesterday voted to extend to October
the time for George c. Kelley and as
sociates to pay 1000 to the city for a
street car franchise.
The vote stood:
President c. Exum-No.
Commissioner A. o. Lane-Aye.
Commissioner Janles Weatherly-Aye.
1t was one of the most dramatic meet
ipgs ever held by the commissioners. The
tension increased from the moment the
first of about dozen speakers arose and
began a TRADE against the Kelleys that
was as bitter as it was earnest. Fluent
oratory and all breeds of metalhor were
hurled at the heads of the commissioners
by private citizens and representatives Of
civic leagues. Mr.. Exum made a ringing
speech, in which he offered a resolution
denying the petition; Mr.. weatherly an
swered by a speech just as straight TO
the point telling why he favored granting
the extension. but moving that Mr. Tx

tive in furthering Watson's chances at

Watson returned from the mainland
yesterday with the prediction that
Coke will be appointed district at

to bother the Democratic territorial
and county committeeman. They say
that they have assurances from Wash

assurances have come through Nation
al Committeeman Johnny Wilson.
Also, the McCandless men, who
easily control both territorial and
county committees, say that they
have information that mainlander
will probably be appointed.

Throughout the islands, were in at

ference of the Hawaiian Evangelical
Association and outlined plans which
bid fair to materializze into one of the
largest money-raising campaigns ever
undertaken by the association in re-

Realizing the vast amount of work
which has been done by the Christian
Endeavor during the past few years
and the need of permanent fund
with which to carry on this work,
Rev. Akaiko Akana presented his
plans for raising the money before
the delegates, saying that If Oahu,
Maui, Hawaii and Kauai would guar
antee to raise $4,000, that he would
himself raise the remaining $1,000.
His plan met with instant approval
and motion to this effect was unani-
mously passed The articles of as
sociation which will govern the rails
ing of the money were drawn up by
Rev. Akana and read at the meeting.
While the business of the confer
ence was practically completed yes
terday afternoon, the session this
morning was given over to the read
ing of the reports of the Christian
Endeavor delegates, the reports num-
bering more than seventy-fiye. Fol
lowing this, the Hawaiian Evangel
Association and the Christian En-
Geayor Association Joined in a clos
