of this year. and August l, 1915. were to
receive a rebate OF from $40 to $50. in
addition to an immediate reduction in
price. provided 10000 cars were sold
within that period, there was doubt ex-
pressed by some unfamiliar with the
nature of the Ford business that such
large sales could be attained. That the
Ford Company knew what II was about
and was not lacking in conservatism or
sincerity. is proved by these August
sales. To increase the sales of the dullest
month by 800 per cent indicates that the
demand is present for the 1000 Ford
cars. for If August jumps that much
what will happen when the sales really
get under way in the real selling
months?"

and asked a number Of questions re.
garding the workings of the federal
grand jury which indicted the district
attorney. This was principally to show
that on September 4 the grand jury
had been dismissed, and also the date
on which the indictment against Mr..
McCarn was returned The prosecu-
ton then made known its intention to
call as witnesses several members or
the grand jury in order to verify GER
tain statements given In the McCarn
trial by j. w. Thompson. assistant dis
trict sttorney, with those. which he
gave before the grand Jury during its
Investigation of the affair.
The defense objected to the calling
of the grand jurymen on the ground
that they were under OBLIGATION by
oath not to divulge matters which came
before theA while in. session. The
court stated that, from the fact that
the grand jury has been dismissed, the
members of that body are no longer
bound by their oaths.
Upon cross-examinat.0n, Attorney
Lightfoot asked Mr.. Davis whether or
not. upon the dismissal of the jury,
Judge e. F.. Clemens had warned the
members not to divulge anything re.
garding the McCarn matter. The pro-
secution objected to this line Of ques-
stioning. the objection being sustained.
John r. Gait, treasurer and manager
.of the Hawaiian Trust Company, who
was member Of the federal grand
jury which indicted Mr.. McCarn, was
the next witness TO be called. Several
answers to questions which Mr..
Thompson gave when examined IN the
McCarn trial were read to Mr.. Gait.
and he was asked to tell whether MI.
Thompson had testified in like man
ner to the grand jury. Mr.. Gait was
of the opinion that, In substance, the
Questions and answers were the same.
The defense made a lengthy cross
of Mr.. Gait, during which
time he underwent grilling ques-
tioning by Attorney Lightfoot.

ten memorandum, Judge Monsarrat
said: 49,: ...*..
Charge is that the defendant on the
9th day of September, 1914. the same
being Sunday, wilfGlly and unlawfully
= did violate the provisions Of Act Is of
the Session Laws of 1906 Of the Terri
tory of Hawaii. by then and there hav.
ing conducted public moving picture
show. :.- . ~.
Defendant, by counsel, enters a
plea OF Not Guilty.
The question tG be-deeided by the
court is whether such a program as
that given under the charge and man
agement OF the defendant at the Popu.
lar theater on the 9th OF September
last was show within the meaning
OF this statute.
The defendant contends that IL was
"a religious meeting along educational
lines, a religious service where no ad
mission fee was charged and no col.
lection taken up, and that the word
show in the statute means, II it means
anything, a show given for money
which this was NOT. Cd.
lures were exhibited in the Popular
theater both afternoon and evening
OF the Sunday in question. The pic.
lures shown were Ten Nights In a
Barroom. That these pictures were
first shown by Mr.. Blair in this same
theater prior TO this Sunday That
hymns were sung and prayers made
both afternoon and evening, and that
the whole affair was under the aus.
pices of the Anti-Saloon League.
Law includes Moving Pictures.
the legislative power to regulate
places of amusement and shows Elk.
TENDS to moving pictures as well.
We have statute which prohibits the
conducting of any show or entertain
ment on Sunday. When so prohibit
ed the words show or entertainment
are used in their ordinary meaning.
and have to be 50 construed by the
court.
The court is of the opinion that To-
constitute a show it is not requisite
under the statute that an admissions
fee be charged or collection taken
up, and that the case is within the
meaning of the statute notwithstand-
ing the fact that prayers were said
and hymns sung as q part of the pro-
gram.
The MagooIi case was next called. In
passing sentence Judge Monsarratt
said:
This case is different from the
other. In this case no attempt has
been made upon the part Of the theat-
rical company TO show that there was
any religious or educational feature in
the program at the .theater last Sun
day night, though the defense testified
that they were giving the shows for
moral and uplifting purpose, to keep
the young people off the streets, etee
The evidence proves that this was
show within t.,e meaning of the stat
ute
1t Is understood that the Wadman
case will be carried TO the higher
courts as quickly as possible. Judge
Monsarratt in his statements took
cognizance Of the fact that test case,
would be made OF 1t.
