(From Thnrsday Adyertiser.l

(From Thursday Advertiscr)
Attorneys for the prosecution and de
tense engaged in war of words dur
ing the closing hours of the trial of w.
r. Hagemann, charged with murder, in
the criminal division of the federal
court yesterday morning.
To begin with, Judge Clemens ruled
that Private Carl Pitts might testify
in rebuttal and so dealt u hard blow to
the defense which Tuesday morning OBJ
jccted strcnuously to the taking of ties
tin ony from this new witness for the
government. '. ':sl;. u ~

Eugene Murphy had good grounds for

Pitts said he heard ocrkin say:

bunk. - 80
"Doc, IL 5 the same old thing. I'm
going to XII you inside an hour,
liagcmann responded, according to
Pitts. i5'.
On cross examination, Pitts admit
ted that he was not sure that he had
heard TIE ''inside OF an hourn part OF
the conversations, but was certain that
no had heard the rest. N.Y. Al. -.
Pitts was then subjected to fire OF
questions by Attorney Andrews in an
effort to show that the character OF
the witness was not OF the best.
He brought out that PITTS had trans
ferred from llagemnnn s company be
cause of an altersation with "a non
commissioned officer and that The char
acter given him on the transfer was
good instead of "excelleut, - the
first te'ng the lowest grade under
which a transfer could be granted.
Pitts, Its seems, also said that III
had transferred because he could not
get Justice from his company con

stand and said that Pits statement
that he had been denied justice wa,
false. -f+'.

met defeat at the hands of the vigilant

The police were to be the main beno.
fciaries. The sheriff argued for the
appointment of a captain Of ponce for

Kealoha was more successful with a
resolution, providing for the appoint

moved to refer the matter to the e.
nance committee. but lost out, and

Archie, passed.
Purdy managed to get passed reso
luton empowering him to collect gar,
bagc in Honokaa, as well as fees for
such service.
The most surprising stunt of all lay,
however, in the fact that the board
solemnly went on record in opposition
to a measure to promote economy by
shutting down on all ineurring of OK.

Lyman brought the matter up, ex.
planning that he wanted to give all
county officials fair warning that he.e.
after all bills incurred above appro.
priations would not be approved by the

Ewaliko fought the passage OF his
resolution, and was assisted by Purdy.

force does towards expediting business
Some one wanted some thing done. but
no clerk appeared to be available.
