when Judge Gear raised the point In

If the members of the Court had ap

Uil had ever been submitted to them.
Ijcar said that he had (lied an am

"1 am sure I have never made up my

"I never saw the bill."

RETURN IS FILED IN PARK TEST CASE
County Attorney Douthltt did somo
exceedingly speedy work In filing thlx
morning the return to tho alternative
writ of mandamus brought by tlip Pa
cific Oil Transportation Co. against
County Auditor Illcknell to compel him
to pay tho claim of $325 for crude oil
delivered to tho Kaplolanl Park.
. Douthltt was only yesterday given five
1 days In which to flto his return after
bis motion to quash had been donlcd
and demurrer denied also.
tllcknell In tho return denies that
the petitioner Is tha logaLowner ot tho
$323 claim chargeablo against the
County of Oahu. Ho also denies that
-the oil in question were supplied to tha
County or at Its request.
Illcknell further shows that tho poll-
tloner's claim was never legally exam
ined, allowed or ordered paid by tho
Hoard ot Supervisors on March 0, or at
any other tlmo. In this behalf ho con
tends that tho purported resolution
' passed by tho Supervisors on tho data
mentioned, which purported to author,
Izo and direct tho Auditor to draw a
warrant on the County Treasury for
tho sum of 325 payable to tho peti
tioner, was and still is null and void

The Chronicle ot aMrch 17 says:
The Chronicle of Msrch 17 savs:

showed llttlo change, howexcr, as com

an Commercial Sugar sold at a slight
advance, and Hutchinson Plantation
also was higher at the close. Adtlces
from Now York showed an advance In
the price of raw sugar, sales being msdti

ment is that Cuba Is backward in

with last year being about 200.000 tons.
