PROMISES
Vessel Libelled By
Former Chief
Engineer
Tho German steamship Tolobnn,
which put Into tills port icccntly In
a. damaged condition after an excit
ing experience with storm and sea,
was scUod )catcrilny by Deputy U. 8.
Maishal Frank Winter, under a suit
in admiralty brought against tho
vessel, her engines, tackle, apparel,
furniture, boats and appurtenances
by Gerald N. Dlcdilch.
Dledrlch in his libel alleges that
last January ho Joined tho Tolosnn
ns chief engineer at Shanghai for n
oyaRc to (iuaymiis, Mexico. in
Match tho vobsol "was compelled by
wind and wavo and by storms nnd
unusual and tempestuous weather to
put Into tho port of Honolulu."
Tho chief alleges that during tho
voyage ho had often called tho atten
tion of tho master to the fact tint
there were on board no duplicate ma
terials and machinery with which to
repair tho engines or machlnory,
bhould they become InoKen or unlit
for use, although the German laws
rcqulro such fittings to bo kept on
board, Ho told tho master Hint It ho
proceeded to Bca without such extra
fittings he would low his certificate
as chlof engineer.
Hut tho captain refused to procure
tho mntorlal, nnd tlio chlof, thoro
fore, would not go to sen, but re
mained In Honolulu, nnd has been
hero ever since
This refusal of tho master to pro
em o the dupllcnto parts of machin
ery, thereby compelling tho libollant
to remain ashore, tho latter looks
upon ns n breach of tho 12-month
contract which ho had entorcd Into
l;i Shanghai. When the Tolosan loft
Honolulu thoro was owing to Died
rich tho sum of S107.S5, which the
captain refused to pay. The libel
lnnt nlso wants damages In tho sum
of $1000, nnd tho further sum of
$Ii00 for his oxpenses slnco ho was
left here, and his passage, money back
to Shanghai.
Tho lutal amount claimed by Ulo.1
ilch and for which he brings suit is
flfiOT.SS.
There has been considerable. nctlx
lty in stocks dining tho last few
days, pnrtlculaily In Oahu. This Is
caused hy the belief that that plan
tation will soon Increase its dividend
from 1 to 1 1-4 per cent., or tliut It
will declare mi extra dlWdcnd.

"Blind Pig" keeper Gets
Extremely Heavy
Fine
Tho first of tho twelve liquor casos
which were secured ngaliiBt Oriental
defendants a few- days ago, was tried
la the Police Court this morning. C.
P. Chllllngworth nnd Judgo IMIngs
represented the defendant In tho case,
ono Koshl, n Japanese restaurant
keeper. They miulo n very hnrd fight
nnd it looked very much ns if they
would gain the victory, but tho Court
finally found tho defendant guilty.
Tho prosecution placed threo wit
nesses on tho stand. One was a Jap
oncso informer and tho others Lieu
tenant I.ualilwa, who worked up the
entire bunch of cases, nnd Officer Jose
Pctor. Tho testimony of the Inform
er and that of tho two officers was
vory much at variance, nnd when thoy
were subjected to strenuous cross-examinations
their evidence wns pretty
badly shot to pieces.
When tho prosecution had submit
ter its case Chllllngworth made a mo
tion to dismiss tho defendant on the!
grounds that tho prosecution had not
made out a cast;. This motion was
denied utter u lengthy argument. Tho
defense then mado n motion to dls
charge, submitting its case without
offering any ovldencc.
While tho defense argued that the
evidence of the prosecution had been
tendered valuelss on account of tho
discrepancies which existed between
tho testimony of Us witnesses, Judgo
Andrndo held that all tho witnesses
had agreed on tlo most material
point, namely the furnishing of tho
liquor. At tho same tlmo ho took oc
casion to hand tho Informer a sting
ing roast.
"Thero Is no reason why the
Court Fhoull b"lleo such a lying ren
egade iio . " Si" ild. "Ho certainly
lied ftom start to l.nL'.., bit ha did
get tho sake, nnd the Court hns rea
son to believe that I.ualilwa and Joso
Peter nro tellin'g tho truth. Tho po
llco department had bottor get bettor
informers."
The Court then fined the defendant
$150 nnd costs, tho highest fine which
Judgo Andrndo has over imposed for
nn offense of tilts kind, showing that
It is his intention to mako tho "blind
rig" keepers suffer in tho future
An appeal was noted by Chilling
worth, who staled that when tlio casa
came up boforo tho Circuit Court he
intended to ralso tho point that tho
l.lquor Hoard was Illegally constituted
on account of tho fact that ono of Its
members Is Treasurer Campbell, who
by vlituo of his offlco ns Treasurer Is
un Interested party in matters of tho
granting of liquor licenses.
Of tho remaining oloven cases coma
wero contlnird until tomorrow morn
ing nnd tho rest until next week.
