SUSPENSION Of
SENTENCE HELD
OUT TO SCULLY
That Was the Extent of "Im-
munity Deal" Deputy City
Attorney Brown Tells Court

The immunity which il is alleged
was promised John T. Scully by the
city and county attorneys office if he
would testify against Bower, Boggs
and McGrath, was brought into and
made part of Scully's trial in federal
court today by the calling Of A. NJ.
Brown, deputy city and county attor-
ney, as a witness for the prosecution.
One of the first questions asked the
witness by the prosecution was wheth-
er he had any conversation with
Scully regarding an opium transac-
ton. This was objected to by the de-
tense on the ground that the defen-
dant was not qualified to know what
opium is. Attorney Mcbride, how
ever, was overruled by the court.
Brown testified that he had had a
conversation with Scully to that ef-
feet. District Attorney jeff McCarn
wanted to know what the defendant
said at that time regarding having had
opium in his possession. Mcbride
again objected on the ground that the
defendant was not qualified to know
what was or was not opium. Brown
said that the[conversation was had
after one of the trials of Scully IN
circuit court, and that Scully came
forward and volunteered to testify
against Bower, Boggs and McGrath.
He said it occurred either in his Of
fee or at Scully's house; he did not
know which.
Prior to the defendants making
any statement to you concerning
opium or any opium transaction oc-
curing on February 8, did you, prior
to receiving any statement, and prior
to the defendants making them, pro-
mise this defendant any leniency, any
favor or any relaxation of prosecu-
TOM asked Mcbride.
Mr.. McCarn objected. Mcbride said
that he wanted to know whether any
statements by Scully to Brown were
voluntary. Mr.. McCarn stated that
Brown had no power to give immu-
nifty in the federal court regarding a
deal in opium.
. Brown answered McBride's ques-
ton, in effect, as follows: e..
Il made the promise to Scully that
If he would testify against McGrath,
Bower and Boggs the county attor-
ney's office would use every endeavor
to secure a suspension of sentence in
the case in which Scully had been
tried and convicted"
Brown further testified that this
promise was made in the beginning,
regardless OF any transactions.
All You, one of the Chinese who, 1t
is alleged, was in the house near the
Kamehameha schools the night Chnn
Chung was robbed of more than $500,
also was on the stand this morning.
He was closely examined by Mcbride
as to the testimony which he gave
in the Scully robbery case in circuit
court. ~ g.. -
Further trial of the case will be had
tomorrow morning at $3.50 O'Clock.

WHAT ABOUT THE FIELD REPORT?

When the minority stockholders brought
suit against the brewery and its president and
manager and directors, the claim was made
that C. G. Bartlett, the president and manager,
had misappfopriated something like So, 900.
Ii. Gooding Field, statistical expert, through
process of law secured access to the books and
began an investigation for the compliments.
A few days afterward the brewery people
gave out that Bartlett had made restitution
and that the suit was being dropped. This was
followed by an election for president. Bartlett
evidently retired from brewery affairs.
Up to date the report of what Expert Field
found in his probe has not been made public.
The brewery recently went before the legis-
lature and secured an extension to it's terri
torial licehse-which amounts to public fran
chise
For many months there have been rumors
that either the brewery or it's manager was
trafficking in retail liquor businesses in direct
violation of the rules of the Oahu license COM
mission. The license under which it is doing
business now-and under which it was doing
business when this suit was brought-makes
the brewery subject to the rules of the com
mission and liable to forfeiture of this public
franchise upon violation being shown.
Mr.. Fields Investigations Of the brewery
books and accounts must have shown how far
if at all the brewery or it's management is and
has been involved in retail liquor businesses.
The report should be demanded either by the
territorial grand jury or the Oahu liquor IL
cense commissioners ..-E -E
This fight for publicity in the business of a
corporation which holds a public license is
just beginning. j..

PEACE DAY"

Tomorrow, May Is, is Peace Day, once
marked ont for international observance. To
morrow throughout many hundreds of miles of
what was once peaceful territory, filed with
happy and industrious peoples, there will be
hate, passion, fear, lust, mad desire to kill;
there will be death and disease and suffering
untold. There will be no peace. But in the
United States this day falls just after an inter
national event that might have plunged the
country in war but may yet prove a powerful
factor for broader peace. .~-.

VISIT DOING GOOD.

Editor Honolulu Star Bulletin.
Sir: A feature of the present con-
gressional party's visit is the fact that
every island of the group is being
made glad by having the honor of en-
Pertaining this distinguished party.
From Hawaii to Kauai We are doing
our best. and We hope that the visit
ors are enjoying themselves, and at
the same time are absorbing the in
formation that Honolulu is not a vii.
lage of matched cottages and cow
trails. 49,:
Of course We expect to hear them
say that they are pleased with all
they see and the country in general
but the look of establishment that has
settled on some of the faces of the
party is purely genuine 1t does us
good to see visitors open their eyes
in wonder when they make. their first
visit to Hawaii. and it does us more
good to hear them compliment us on
what has been accomplished here in
the past and to hear them say that
they will help us in the future =
+ One of the best compliments TINT
could be paid Hawaii was uttered
when Uncle joe Cannon stated that
he was simply astonished at our prog
Tess and 1t takes some progress" to
astonish the most popular man in the
United States today. .--,. e.. -. -. .
While this visit has possibly cost
us a lot of money it has also done us
lot of good. This interchange has
certainly been a schoolroom to those
who have a hand in matters national,
and when Hawaii and her needs are
brought before them at the national
capital each and every one of the leg
islators now visiting with US will
