Radical difference of opinion between
former Circuit Judge Henry E. Cooper
ind Cspt, Emil E. Piltx as to how to
navigate a vessel on a South dea ex. -;edition
are said to have led to tensely .
strained relations in Uncomfortably
jlose qnertcrs on board the power
.ohooner Luka during its mysterious '
.oyage to Palmyra Island, which ter
mnated last Week.'i . '
Still convinced of the soundness of the
lautical authorities which be cited in
lis arguments . with the obdurate ,
nariner whom he hired to pilot the .
raft, but apparently lacking jurisdie
jon to enforce decrees is deep-sea Isti
.ude and longitude, the Judge disem
barked at Waimea, on the return trip,
caving the captain of the Luka ia us
disputed command.
Acconipanied by his son, Frsacie D.
'ooper, aad his guest, D, Howard Hitch-.-ock,
the artist, who were with him
in the voyage to the Palmyras, Judge
Coojer went from Waimea t Na-:'.
iiwili, there boarding the W. O, Hail,
which brought the - trio to Honolulu.
Two days later Captain piltx and hie
crew ot four sailed the Luka into port
snd tied 4t op. He was victorious but
disgasted. f ' ',; ' .- -.'
.' Differences Arose Early.
According to members of the Judge's '
,erty tho misunderstanding .; between
he jurist and mariner arose en the
voyage out about five week ago and . .
,rew both going and coming- until the '
.einper of' the disputants beramo as
rouca' as the PalinyTa climate. . ,:, '..

tunicated . with.
Mr. ' Hitchcock also was loth to die- .
uss the hitch that was reported te ,
svs east gloom -over' the expeditienw:
tessed for an explanation, he said the- '
rouble was occasioned by a disagree- '
aent over nautical practice and' a
grouch" developed by Captain Pilta
toon after the departure from ' Hono
ulu.. "The captain's eyesight 1000103
o be poor," he remarked rather vague-' .
y in commenting on the dispute over .
juestions of navigation. ' - ;
Wo Throats, They Assort. :
Both he and Mr, Cooper Jr.' empha
ieaHy denied a report current yeeter
lay and attributed to Captain Pilta
.bat . the . master of the schooner had
hreatened to put Judge Cooper' in irons .
f he did not quit interfering with the
levigating department. Captain Pilta
ould not be found last night but he is ,
id to have made a threat when, al
though the vessel was short of fire- .
food and water, the Judge insisted on
lontinning the Voysge to Honolulu In
tend of stopping at Waimea for sup- '
,)lies. He is quoted as declaring that
iwing to the water shortage, conditions
n the vessel when it arrived off tho
lee shore of Kauai were desperate -and
justified heroic measures to "pacify"
ipposition to his plan of action, . :
Make Tea Out of, Soup. - - 1
Referring to the lack of wood and
water on the schooner, Mr. Hitchcock
admitted that the voyagers had been ,,
reduced to the necessity of making tea
jut of canned soup and' using it as a
substitute for water. This was after
the Luka had been beating about three
lays la the waters off the Kauat eoast
and making little headway owing to '
-ontrary winds. The vessel had thus
traveled about 300 miles ia excess of
the distance between the Palmyras and .
this port, which is 895 miles. Under,
these circumstance's Mr. Hitchcock as
serted that all on board were willing to
land at Waimea without threats of
punishment. .''..' . ". , ..;'
Reports of the difficulty said to havo
been given by Captain I'iltx soon after
he returned - here ' with v the little
schooner indicated that the alleged in
terference of Judge Cooper in the
routine aboard ship had annoyed hint
(reatly. The judge is said to have be.
gun early on the trip to note exceptions
to the captain's orders regarding the
steering of the vessel and to have con-
tinued this course throughout the voy
sge. The captain 'is quoted ss. declar
ing the judge might be sound on legal
points but that his information on coin
psss points Was seriously at fault
NaUves Brought Back.
The original intention- of . Judge
Cooper was to leave four Tahitsns on
Palmyra Island to look after his in
terests there but this plan was changed ,
and all were brought back, although '
part of the provisions taken on the
voyage were left behind., As the Is
land is uninhabited they probably will ...
be. there when the Judge returns, as
he expects to do in about two months,
unless a stray band of smugglers should
find tbeui.
