JUDGE ASHFORD
WOULD PUT Law
ON JUNK BUYERS
Wave of Youthful Crime Brings
Suggestion to Police From
Juvenile Court

In the belief that the present wave
of crime among boys of juvenile court
age with its tendency for stealing
brass and copper fittings about town
and selling them 10 Junk shops in the
downtown districts, can be checked
by bringing the law 10 bear forcibly
upon the junk dealers themselves,
Judge c. W. Ashford of the circuit
court, who is at present acting as
Juvenile judge, is urging upon the
police department vigorous prosecu-
ton of these men.
There seems to be a veritahle
wave of deprayity in the juvenile
court ut the present time" said Judge
Ashford today, "and the majority Of
cases are of thefts of brass and cop
per fittings from large machinery The
highest price that have heard of be-
ing paid for one of these pieces is 10
cents. .
Brass and copper wire. lead piping,
and such materials have been taken
here and there in wholesale man
ner. A number of these young mis-
creants recently raided the Libby,
Mcneil & Libby cannery at Kalihi
and absolutely broke the machines to
get the fixtures that they bore. The
machines in several cases we're thus
put out of commission until new fit
tings could be secured from the coast
The thing to do" continued the
judge, is to prosecute the men who
buy this stuff With the market for II
shut off these crimes will come to
an end Immediately. The men should
be severely dealt with for this Gus.
tom which is making thieves of the
lads
Judge Ashford adds that he has
taken up the matter with Captain Nc
Duffie OF the detective bureau and has
been :old tina. some such cases are
now pending in the police court. They
are pending too long, he says, how
ever. Prompt action should be taken
in the matter.

Girl CONSCIOUS
BUT MYSTERY IS
NOT EXPLAINED
Police Unable to Account for
What Occurred at Gray
stone Hotel

Mystery surrounds the case of
Violet Spreen, who was brought to the
emergency hospital Monday night in
an unconscious condition from the
Graystone hotel at the corner of
King street and Nuuanu avenue. Al
though the young woman has recover
ed sufficiently to be taken to her
home in Kalihi, investigation appar
entity has not ceased
When asked what il was all about
Sheriff Charles H. Rose said he didn't
known. He admitted that many alarm
ing stories, some quite sensational,
were going the rounds. but said the
police could do nothing as the girl
was of age.
~ One OF the stories told Arthur Nc
Duffie, chief of detectives, who has
been investigating the case, is that
the girl was a chamber-maid at the
Graystone hotel, was scolded severely
by the proprietor for neglecting her
work and went into mysteries.
Another is that she became jealous
of the proprietor and weakened from
the effects of some sort of hysteria.
DIR. r. G.. Aver was called to the
Graystone by Deputy Sheriff Julius
w. Asch to inspect the premises and
state whether it was desirable
place for the girl to stay.
81 found that a number of drunken
people we're Keeling in and out of the
says Aver, "and told Mr..
Asch the girl certainly shouldn't stay
there in such a condition The place
seemed like a regular dive to me-"
Doctor Aver denied an intimation
that the. matter was being hushed up
BY asserting that it was a common
enough occurrence for girl to be
aiken to the emergency hospital for
treatment and later to be sent to her
home.

GIRL IN COURT
NARRATES STORY
OF DEPRAVITY
Counsel for Defense Says Not
13-Year- Old Youngsters
First 0ffenSe

For the third time this year little
Elizabeth Telles, said to be only 13
years old, played the leading role in
sordid tale, when she went on the
witness stand in police court this
morning to testify at the preliminary
hearing of H. A. Smith, Pa.ama fire
department captain, charged with a
statutory offense.
A former intimation that the court
would clear the room of audience was
not carried out and every bench was
filled with silent spectators.
At noon the hearing was continued
until FRIDAY.
Hemmed in by staring circle the
girl hesitatingly unwouRd her broken
tale of shame. Eyes OF the Judge and
prosecution, the defendant and attor-
ney, newspapermen, policemen, wit
nesses and court attendants were
focused on the girl in the box during
the whole of her broken story.
Under the insistent questioning Eli
zabeth told of meeting Smith in Dow
sett lane last week and going with
him into her aunt's house, where she
lived.
In the course of the hearing, when
Prosecutor Chillingworth excused the
girls tardy answers by saying she
was Young and ashamed, Attorney L.
M. Straus for the defense charged
that the same girl had been the COM
planning witness in two more similar
cases this year and was not so young
and innocent as the prosecution pro-
fessed.
