able settlement of the question Of
jurisdiction was set following an open
conference in the district court room
before Judge Dole, following the is
suanCe of an order by the federal
jurist which set forth his opinion as
being that the question should be set
tied prior TO the commencement in
the federal court OF the trial of the
district attorney. Present at the con-
ference besides Judge Dole were J.
w. Cathcart, city and county attOr-
ney; Attorneys J. A. Magoon, Joseph
Lightfoot and A. S. Humphreys, coun-
sci for McCarn; Alexander Lindsay,
Jr., special assistant to the attorney
general, and NJ. \. Thomas, in charge
OF the local district attorneys office
until the disposition of the indict-
ments against McCarn.
In explaining the status of the Nc
earn case now before the territorial
court. Attorney Cathcart said that it
is now in a rather peculiar state. The
trial of the case, he said. has been
set for September s of this year and,
although the case in the federal court
has been set for trial September 8,
the territorial court has not as yet
taken any action toward a continu-
ance. Further, he stated that the or
der to try the case in the territorial
court September stands revoked.
A suggestion that the question of
be settled prior to the re-
turn of Mr.. McCarn met with strenu-
BUS objection from the district attor-
neys counsel on the ground that it
is McCarn's right to be present at all
having to do with the
case against him. Judge Dole. al
though he remarked that he could see

set the date Of the hearing for the !,

cheat in 1904 and sentenced to a years
Imprisonment and payment of the

CAPTAIN SMITH
MADE Effort
FOR BONUS

Captain II. Smith, master of the big
Norwegian tramp freighter Henrick
lbsen, an arrival at the port this morn
ING, is richer by a considerable sum
as a result OF the award of a substan-
tial bonus by the lnter-Island Steam
Navigation Company for the compile
ton of a trip from British Columbia
to the Hawaiian islands with much
needed fuel
The Henrick Ibsen sailed from
ComOs and Union Bay, on Aug 10. The
vessel had been supplied with 6S3S
tons of coal consigned to the local
steamship company. The supply at
the port has greatly diminished follow
ing the arrival of transpacific liners in
need of fuel.
A cable was dispatched to the own.
ers advising them that to hasten the
arrival of the big shipment of coal to
Honolulu was imperative and that adj
ditional money would be forthcoming
on the charter 80:
Captain Smith set about his task of
driving the freighter at its top speed.
The voyage was favored with fine
weather, with moderate winds and
seas 1t is the expectation to dispatch
the vessel for the north Pacific coast
on next Saturday. This represents the
first shipment of British Columbian
coal brought to the islands in a num-
Der of years.
Ventura a Crowded Ship.
In departing from Sydney, n. S. w,
for Honolulu by the way of Page Page,
the passenger accommodation was
taxed to the limit according to a cable
received today at the agency of C.
Brewer & Company. The Ventura
is predicted will arrive at Honolulu
on Sept. IL with between 225 and $50
passengers in the several classes. The
local representatives have been ad-
vised that the liner can accommodate
but s additional cabin passengers in
Steaming for San Francisco.
The vessel departed with full
cargo. .~-....

Grim Evidence of War.
IHongkong is an absolutely closed

was halted at the entrance to the
Hongkong roadstead and for the first
time in the history of the vessel,

ment boarded the liner and demanded
that the wireless apparatus Of the
China be taken down during the stay
at that port. The operating room
was sealed while all passengers were
subjected to a thorough quizzing by
the officers Captain Thompson was
informed that 70 craft were permitted
to move from ship to shore after sun

harbor were illuminated by dozens of
searchlights, the shafts of light cir |

"The proclamation does not compel
the stores to close. any more than the
Regatta Day holiday does. and those
firms on whom observance of full
holiday would work great financial
hardship can keep open at least a
part Of the time, by using part of
their force, and I would recommend
that employees of such companies show
theD loyalty by willingly returning to
their work after they have cast their
ballots"
This gives the territory three holi.

Fort Shafter Notes

Especial Star-Bulletin Correspondence
FORT SHAFTER, Aug. 31.-The
monthly muster of the troops took
place this morning at $3.50 and was
preceded by a review and inspection
of the I'd Infantry. The regiment was
paraded in full field uniform and equip
ment and was under command of
Lieut.. Col B. W. Atkinson, with Col
onel F. II. French receiving the re-
view. The inspection and muster was
performed by the battalion comman-
ders in their respective commands. A
feature of the review and later inspec-
ton was the presence of number of
officers of the British army as per-
sonal guests of officers of the local gar
rison. They were accompanied by
Major Conklin. The visitors were in
no wise present in an official capacity
but merely as spectators. The inspec-
tion and muster of the auxiliary troops
was performed by Lieut.. Colonel Atkin-
son after that officers duties in con-
nection with the regimental formation
were concluded. These latter cere-
monies for the engineers and signal
corps companies we're likewise in field
equipment and took place on their re-.
spectiye company parades. The de-
tachment of the hospital corps was
mustered at the dispepsary by the post
commander after the review had ter
minated.
IT.. y y
The attention OF the municipal au-I
thorities will be invited by those con-
cerned to the serious damage that has
been done to the portion of the county
road that passes through Fort Shafter.
Though laid less than six months ago
the road is already badly cut UP by
bad management of heavily loaded
teams and should the road be longer
neglected in the matter of repairs will
soon be in condition requiring COM
plete relaying. One dollar spent at the
present time in repairs will save fifty
dollars of expenditure when the road
is hopelessly damaged. Bad hummocks
in the surface coat have already ap-
peared and the resultant depressions
are well through the metalling. II is
hoped that the road department will
act promptly in the matter and save
the remaining portion from reaching
the condition that it was in before the
last general reconstruction was under
taken. II. n --.- .. =.
