HILO, Oct. 17-In making an audit

discrepancies that seemed to impIi-

to show that the money in question,

transmitted by him to Sheriff Pua, as
the money had been sent by draft.
This leads Field to suspicion that 9TH

Father ST. Leger Advises conk-
ling of Irregularities in De-

Direct evidence of gross irregulari
ties and chicanery in the matter OF
marriage licenses and ceremonies In
the Kohala district on Hawaii was re.
ceived by Territorial Treasurer Conk.

The evidence is so apparently com.

County Atty. w. II. Beers at Hilo,
with the request that he Immediately

a view to prosecuting the offenders.
Father st. Leger, in response to a
letter from the treasurer sent him
some weeks ago, has been conducting
a quiet investigation IN the Kohala
district, and the report he has sent in
is remarkable.
In one instance he tells of a Japa-
nese girl twelve years of age who was
married without her parents consent,
and of another wherein an 11-year-old
girl, apparently a Filipino, was united
In marriage. In both cases the names

He states that Amelia Chavaria,
born in December, 1901, was given a.
license to marry by J. Uaia and that
James K. Naihe performed the cere-
mony and that they charged the
bride and groom total fee of $26. In
the case of the Japanese girl the faith.

tain who had issued the license In
another instance, however, he says
that Uaia and Naihe charged total
fee similar in size to that paid by
Amelia Chayaria's husband. In still

SCHOOL BILLS MAY GO
THROUGH CHECK SYSTEM
Comptroller May Get Them Fol-
lowing the Audit.

A change in the system of keeping
the account of school moneys may
follow the audit of the books of the
Board of Education, just completed.
The lesson learned in the water de-
partment conditions is evidently to
be kept in mind by the city daddies,
and it is understood that the ex-
penditure of money Independent of a
checking system is to be stopped It
is likely that a move will be made
compelling the educational board to
require that all money received from
the State be placed under the con-
troll of the city comptroller and city
auditor.
Under the present system the STATE
money is expended by the boarC
without fling information with tn,
lauditor. The bills, of course, ar,
audited, but the detail of the account.
is kept by the Board of Education
employees, although the money APP
Ipropriated by the city goes GU
through the same channel as othel
municipal expenditure.
In considering the adoption of tn,
new system no reflection is intended
but the submission of all money to
properly constituted checking depart
ment like the auditors office is be
lieved to be more business-like. Th'
proposed changes will be taken I'll
with the Board of Education in tn,
near future.

ADMITS USURIOUS RATE
OF INTEREST IN COURT

In brief submitted to Referee Ad-
ans, in the Bankruptcy Court today,
the Gotham Clearing House, through
Counsel William Stern, admit that
they received a usurious rate of in
terest from the Edisonia Company,
of this city, for money loaned. This
was admitted in order that there
might be no question in the mind of
the referee on this point.
Mr.. Stern sought to have an injunc-
ton, which restrained the Gotham
company from collecting on the con-
tracts held in hand as security, set
aside. He commended that the court
had no jurisdiction in the matter of
enjoining a New York house from
realizing on its contracts. The CON
tracts, he said. were in the nature of
O lien.
In combating this motion, Pierce &
Hoover, as counsel for the receiver,
set up charges of usury and fraud.
