JUDGE M0NSARRAT SAYS
CATHCART'S OFFICE TO
BLAME FOR QUINN CASE

District Magistrate Monsarrat de
clared from the bench yesterday
that the matter of letting Tom Quinn
go free while Japanese named Shin
izu was fined IS and costs for an iden
tical violation of the traffic laws, was
entirely up to the representative oil
the city and county prosecuting attor
ney's Office. The prosecuting officer
moved for the discharge of Quinn, SO
stated Mcnsarrat.
The magistrate proposed his inten.
ton of passing Judgment upon Quinn
when he stated that it was brought to
his attention by the prosecution that
Quinn was entirely justified in violat-
ing that clause in the traffic regula-
ton that reauires automobiles to fol-
low the right-hand side of the road
in travelling Kalakaua avenue.
What is now puzzling the police is
the fact that scohes of persons have
been summoned to appear before the
lower court for similar, violations OF
the road regulations ON Kalakaua ave.
nue., yet In the case OF one offender
he is told in open court that as the
Eva side OF that thoroughfare is rough
in spots the officers were therefore
not warranted in placing him under
arrest.

SEIYO MARU BACK
TO HONOLULU
And SAFETY

Taking no chances with a possible
meeting of hostile war feet, the
passenger and freight steamer Seiyo
Maru, belonging to the Toyo Kisen
Kaisha line, which spent three days
of the port following its arrival from
Mexico. centFa and Sonth America, is
again riding at anchor near quarantine,
pending additional advices from the
home office at Toxic.
AS forecasted in the Star-BuI1etin yes
terdas, the Seiyo Maru did not ven
ture many miles of the shores OF the
Hawaiian group According to the
master Of the liner this morning, he
had steamed 166 miles when wireless
message ordered the return of the ship
to Honolulu.
That a japanese cruiser or perhaps
several war vessels of that nationality
are proceeding to the Hawaiian islands
is the general belief held in local ship
ping circles. Castle and Cooke, local
representatives for the T. X. K. yes
terday afternoon received lengthy
cable from Toxic requesting that every
effort be made to insure the return
of the Seiyo Maru to a neutral port.
Loud and angry protest from about
1000 passengers In the several classes
over the return of the vessel, we're the
rule on board the Seiyo Maru this
morning.
The belief is expressed that Jap
anese war vessel may later serve as a
convoy for the commercial liner in its
voyage to Japan ports.

According to this story lot of Vot-

would make good city and county at
torney took out nomination papers for
him, filled out the papers and wanted
Straus to run as a Democrat This
part of the story Is correct, for Strauss
himself said SO yesterday afternoon,
adding, however, that he is not much
interested in politics and does not ex.

The story goes ON that Straus ask
