For fifteen months the officers OF

under canvas, in a dust-swirled camp
on the Leilehua plain. Now the ma

many thousands of acres are avail

could have been used for housing the
troops, without restricting the man

That the new infantry post at Cast

ton of the place, is the opinion of
the great majority of 1st Infantry fam

there is a lamentable lack of space
around each dwelling. and the inter.

these at Fort Ruger, and that, say

SUPREME court
MAY BE ASKED
FOR OPINION

The Dowsett Estate and Henry
Smith, acting as trustee for the heirs
Of John Meek, this morning gave no
tfce of their intention to fight to the
last ditch the effort of Attorney Gen
eral Thayer, for the territory, to ac-
quire title to the yaluble tract on the
makai side of King street, at Smith
street. As result the suit will be
taken up shortly in the court OF land
registration, whence it undoubtedly
will go to the supreme court. The
attorney general is inclined to think
the affair will not be definitely settled
until it has gone through the supreme
court of the United States
This case, as published In the Star
Bulletin several months ago when the
attorney general first undertook 1t, re-
wolves around the legality of grant
made John Meek in 1899. Though
Captain John Meek held the land in
question for years before that date,
and his heirs have held it to this day,
the territory contends there Is flaw
in the title, because the grant by King
Kamehameha III in 1889 was never Of
ficially approved by the land commits
sion. No record of the land commits
sion's award can be found.
At intervals during the last few
years the present holders Of the val
liable business property as well as the
governor, have sought a compromise
but have been unable to agree on
terms. The territorial executive a
few years ago offered to settle with
them for a certain price, but they de-
clined to pay the amount he set.

Fred Penny, a farmer, who was in

FROM ITALIAN BANK

swindler. believed to be an American
crook of international notoriety, de-

apparently together. one of them pre-
senting a check for $60,000. After ex-
animation the check was found to be
genuine.
Immediately after the other man pre-
sented a similar check for the same
amount. AS the first check had been
found authentic and as the second was
exactly like it, no examination was
made of the latter and the 100000 was
paid over.
The man at once left the bank and
later the paper was found to be spur
ious. The theory of the police is that
the swindler, through an accomplice,
knew that 100000 check was to be
presented and managed to make a du-
plicate with the exception Of the name
of the payee.
