told him.
If the story which Marshal Smiddy
says Scully told him is authentic, the
plans which were made to get Scully
away from Honolulu and eventually

arranged by "a man named McCutch-

and Joe Rata, bartender at the

McCutcheon and Rata entered into
an agreement to give ]. w. Sproat.

an 5000 to take Scully to Hilo.
Sproat spent about half an hour in
the marshal's office this morning, dur
ing which time he made statement
regarding the affair which was taken
down by stenogfapher from the dis
trict attorneys office.
Scully told the marshal that he and
the other two men wanted to go to
Hilo SO that they might stow away in
the Maverick, the mystery ship" and
get to the mainland.
Sproat says that he had no idea of
what the men were making the trip
for After the sampan had been to
sea for some time Sproat says he got
the idea that Rata, McCutcheon and
Seully might be out on an opium deal.
He put ashore at Kaunakakai, Mo

Scully was on his boat and asking
whether the authorities wanted Soul.

to Sproat to hold Scully and return
him to Honolulu.

taking charge of Scully until Marshal
Smiddy arrived. At 5 o'clock Marshal
