Breckons Believes He Sees Way
to Get More Embezzled Coin
Back in Treasury.
lMall special 10 Tho Advertiser. }

mail Special to The Advertiser.)
HILO, November 24.-During the
past few weeks while Prosecutor Brock
ons has been in Honolulu marking time
uptil his successor as United States dis
trict attorney can arrive, County At
torney Beers has been holding the fort,
attending to the affairs of the prose-
eution instituted under the graft com
mission.
Beers did not particularly enjoy the
situation but be fought the mandamus
case and the plea in abatement which
Claudius Mcbride filed in behalf of his
client. John Kealoha. Beers had boued
that Breckons would show up last Sun
day in order to take over the burden,
but he was disappointed when last
Thursday he received letter from
Breckons stating that he could not come
to Hilo and telling Beers that 'you
must do the best you know how"
which was not sconsolug.
More Refund LII Sight.
81 have been doing considerable
work on the Lalakea matter, and am
about ready to set the ball going in
good shape wrote Breckons further.
Am inclined to think that remedy
for all Of our money which we did not
get from the bank exists on Laiakea s
bond. -
This was cheering news, but it did
not make Beers task any easier. In
the meantime he took up Breckons'
burden, and in doing so he gained much
credit for himself by beating out the
Claudian plea in abatement by means
of n demurrer which he filed and ar
gued, the matter being strenuously con
tested on both sides. The nature of the
plea ard Of the demurrer is explained
in the decision which Judge Parsons de-
livered last Friday morning, sustaining
the demurrer.
Mcbride Immediately moved to file
exceptions, which was allowed. He then
asked for an order permitting him to
take an interlocutory appeal on the OK
ccptions He argued that there was
little likelihood that the Kealoha cases
would be tried this year, anyway, as
many other cases had been set for De-
ccmbcr, and rs other demurrers might
be interposed. Judge Parsons said th,t
he could see nothing gained by granS-
ing the order as the same points might
be raised on the final appeal, and the
request was denied
Mcbride then asked that Kealoha's
plea be set for Monday, December /,
and this was granted.
Mcbride announced his intention of
fling amended pleas in abatement in
the other sixteen cases against Kealo-
ha. but the court sustained pro forma
demurrers in these, and Mcbride noted
another exception, Pleas in all these
cases were set for December |.
