The habeas corpus proceeding of TV. H.
Marshall was the first thing on the docket
jostordii morning when Judge Estee
ojmtfed court. In reply to the question
of the judge if a return to the writ had
lieen mude, Clerk Moling replied that
there had, and Attorney General Dole,
Appearing for High Sheriff Brown, wan
nsked to read it. The return with a
copy of the mittimus attached was then
read by Mr. Dole as follows:
"In the district court of the United
Stall's of America, in and for the Territory
of Ilawai: In the matter of the
juitition of William II Marshall for a
"writ of habeas corpus. Respondent's rectum
: Arthur M. Brown, the respondent
named in the petition for writ of habeas J
corpus, filed herein, for return thereto
pays : That he is the high sheriff of the
Territory of Hawaii, and as such is responsible
for the custody, control and
Mifo keeping of all prisoners committed to
lils custody by the courts of the Territory
of Hawaii; that the said William II
Marshall is uow and has been since the
t ihh day of October, A. D. 1900, detained
and confined iu the Oahu jail under and
by authority of a certain mittimus to the
said high sheriff directed, a copy of which
t 'is hereto attached and made a part here-
of."
s, The return is sigued by A. M. Brown,
high sheriff. Territory of Hawaii, and
iworn to by him before George Lucas,
clitrk of the supreme court.
The mittimus is directed to "The Marshal
of the Hawaiian Islands or his
and sets out Marshall's conviction
in the circuit court for the offense of pule
n libel in the first degree commit
&ti ou or about August -7, 189l. by pub-
$ IpWiing in the "Sunday Volcano" of that
'date a libel on Chief Justice Judd, of
hich a copy in these words is set out:
"A young man in years, faltering in
judgment, lame in ideas, has been drireu
over the Pali; a man who saw no good
but that which was mirrored in himse'f
Ms been driveu over the Pali;
n man as changeable as the wind
has jecn driven over the Pali ; a thing, a
creature, a cringing reptile of greed and
spoliation has been driveu over the Pali;
a man who knew no law but policy has
boon driven over the Pali;, a man-who tn
ever? case of litigation involving wealth
against poverty divided in favor of wealth
has leen driven over the Pali, there to
rvmaiu forever.
"A. F. Judd's mind is a vacuum and
he is rapidly becoming a jibbering idiot.
From the first he recognixed no opinion
nor obligation inconsistent with those n
power. He was everything for a time
and nothing long. la his time he played
many parts and played them poorly. In
order to remaiu in power he was a sycophant
to every fallacy.
"Tomorrow, to gain the speaking recognition
of this paper, he would sacrifice
lit manhood, aye. even surrender his
robe of office.
"He is over the Pali. Rnd on his face
Is the picture of despair.
"The country and the Volcano is
' through with A. P. Judd. Let him dii
in peace.
"Chief Justice Judd is a man of re-
tiring habits. He is over the Pali.
"Where is jour chief justice a man
not possessing one sixteen hundredth
art of the honor of Pontius Pilate? H
. " is ovr the Pali."
After the reading of the return, the
court said. "This is a matter of treat
concern and the fin thing we sauet
is the (mention of this court'
diction. Of course, it would not hare
: issued the writ in the first place, if it
lind not believed it had jurisdiction, but
we uiust make sure. It is a "very serious
proposition for this court, to ctaad a an
appellate court, and it does not, but
x here a primary ground it shown for is;
f buiug a writ of habeas corpus, as ha
been done, the duty of this court i
jdain."
The attorqejs wens then interrogated
I, by the court as to their withe regard-
k ' jug the time for argument oa the
tion of jurisdiction. Attorney Geaeral
Dole spoke oa the matter of releasing
the defendant oa bail pending the settlement
of the oetioa of jsrisdictioa. He
said that, in order to gire counsel time
to prepare their argnmenu and the court
leisHre to coaw to a decision, he favored
releasing the prisoner on a nominal bond.
When askd what he considered a nominal
bond Mr. Dole replied: "Anything
your honor thinks sufficient.
Judge Estee asked if $100 would
enougb. Mr. Dole aaid this would b
satisfactory.
The court then ordered that the de
fendant be released on filing a bail bond
of S100, satisfactory to the United States
district attorney, not forgetting to admonish
Mr. Marshall to make his appearance
at all hearings of the case.
A satisfactory bond was shortly presented
to the United States attorney,
with Chas. S. Desky as security, and Mr.
Marshall spent yesterday in bis home
or upon the streets talking to friends of
his late unique experiences.
The contention of the defendant is that
he was illegally imprisoned because he
was put upon trial for an infamous
crime without indictment by a grand
jury, contrary to the fifth amendment of
the constitution of the United States, and
that the verdict was agreed to by only
nine of the twelve jurors, contrary to
the sixth amendment of the constitution,
and further that the defendant did not
plead to the charge against him oh his
trial in the circuit court.

Ruling on Status of Deputy Marshals
in Porto Jtico.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 4. Mr. Trace-well,
the comptroller of the treasury, has
rendered a decision as to the payment of
court expenses and compensation of United
States deputy marshals connected with
the United States district court of Porto
Kico. the disiKwal of the funds earned
by them, to what authority the marshals
should report and account for the disbursement
of funds coming to their hands,
and the u&c and supply of books and
blanks needed for his office. These questions
iuvohe an interpretation of that
part of the Porto Rico act relating to the
courts of the island. The "tomptroller
holds that the Porto Kican act differentiates
this court from other United States
district courts, either in the states or territories,
and that the salaries of its officers,
including deputy marshals, shall
be paid out of the Porto Rican treasury ;
that the expenses of all these officers, shall
be paid out of the Porto Rican treasury,
and also that all fees earned by them are
to be accounted for and reported to the
United States. But one class of deputy
United States marshals, the comptroller
decides, is privileged to be appointed by
the Porto Rican court, namely, a class
to be paid out of the treasury of Porto
Rica.
The comptroller of the treasury further
decides that all operating expenses
of the court shall be paid by the United
States; that the fines, costs and fees
charged aud collected by the marshal
should be paid into the treasury of the
United States; that the marshal should
report to the attorney general of the
United States and account to the accounting
olficcrs of the United States; that the
deputy marshals shall be paid their compensation
from the Porto Rican treasury,
and that the department of justice is acquired
to furnish the United States marshal
with all necessary blanks for his
office.

Takes Poynter to Task for Calling
Regular Soldiers Hirelings.
BASSETT, Neb., Oct. 4. A troop of
mounted cowboys and citizens of the towu
collected this morning at the depot to
greet Governor Roosetelt He made the
usual plea to his auditors, to "vote to
uphold not only the cause of our material
well-being, but the cause of the honor of
the American flag."
At O'Neill a stop of 15 minutes was
made. Governor Roosevelt said in part:
"The other day at Lincoln I stated
that Poynter had been reported
as having spoken of the regular United
States soldiers as '$15 a month hirelings.'
He has denied that he has ever
made ouch a statement, attributing to me
the word 'butcher,' which I never used.
He was reiwrted in the press as having
made such a statement, but Mr. Dietrich
and Mr. Steufcr, now running on the
republican state ticket, heard him make
uh' of thoe words in the batter part cf
August at an old settlers picnic at Dakota
City. In the latter part of September,
at Superior, Mes&rs. Dietrich, Prout,
Savage and Steufer all heard him make
the same statement in a slightly different
words.
"I was glad enough to have these
'hirelings on either side of my refimenc
We were none of us in a mood to pay
much attention as to whether a man was
a volunteer or a regular white man or
colored. The 'hirelings' at Santiago left
between 1.300 and 1,400 of their killed
and wounded. The mould is fresh ou the
graves of those 'hirelings' who lay in the
Philippines. Have they not deserved well
of their country? I ask you aV American
citizens to stamp your disapproval
on all who 6neer at such men. who put
upon them slight and slander. I have
the statement of Governor Poynter
and have givta aaaes and dates. I
do not make any statcaeat I cannot

Chiefs Must Now Conform
to American
Laws.
SPECIAL PRIVILEGES WIPED OUT
PRACTICAL LESSONIN EQUAL-ITT
A2TD JUSTICE TAUGHT
CHIKF LETUXU.
No Fiaa Sacred to Chiefs That JCay.
Hot Also Re Eaten by
the Lowly Na-
tives.
The American officers on the island o
Tutnila, Samoa, are ruling with a firm
hand and are making the enforcement
of old rules and custom?., when of a. degrading
or supentitiou3 character, rather
unpopular. Recently Letuli, a county
chief, violated his pledges and he was.
tried before a high court, of which
Commander B. F. Tilley, U. S. N., commandant
of the United States naval
station was president.
Letuli was charged as follows :
First Abuse the authority vested in
him by the authority of the United
States government as county chiefs-Second
Incite his people to commit
acts of violence against one Fagaima. a
resident of his county, and to do other
lawless and rebellious acts.
Third Disregard the authority of the
government of the United States naval
station, Tutuilu.
After a trial lasting seven days, during
which a large amount of testimony was
taken relative to Samoan customs, the
-president of the court delivered the fol
lowing judgment, in which all the members
concurred:
This case is of ,the most vital im-
portance te the interests of the government
of the United States in Tutuili and
Manula and to the welfare of the Sa-moans
now under its protection
For this reason the high courc
has given to it a most careful and exhaustive
nvestigation. riirovg'j th con
nictmg testimony of some of the witnesses
it has been difficult to get at nil
the facts of the case, but the court is
satisfied that the following facts are well
established: First the accused, Letuli,
a couny chief of Tutuila. duly appointed
under the authority of the United
States government, was a strong ruler,
having full authority over his people,
who stood .in fear of him. Second! he had
taken the oath of allegiance to the United
States and knew the law, which had been
explained to him. Notwithstanding this
he deliberately ignored the law and arbitrarily"
imposed a fine upon one
ma, without referring the matter to the
proper court. Third, with an apparent
animus against Fagaima the accused
permitted the people of his own village,
Hi ill, to commit acts of violence against
him for what he thought to be on offense
against himself. It is evident that
be knew the law but tried to evade the
consequences of violating-it. Fourth, he
told his people to drive Fagaima out of
his house and to take away his goods; he
forbade Fagaima to again enter his house J
or to fish. in the sea. Fifth, he told the
people of Iliili to kill two of Fuganna's
pigs and to bring hem todliili. T'his was
done and Letuli received the chief's portion
of them. Sixth, he failed to report
any of these matters to the governor of
his district and when officially called to
'
account for his acts, spoke disrespectfully
of the governor and showed much anger
and resentment towards him. All of
these acts show on the part of Letuli a
personal spite towards Fagaima and an
intention to ignore the laws and punish
him according to his own will and without
even reporting the matter to the
proper authority. The only excuse offered
is to plead a custom which prevailed
many years ago, but has not been
observed recently.
Although not stated in the evidence
before tnis court, it is a notorious fact
that when the commandant's order No.
5, prescribing the form of government
for Tutuila. was first published, the ac
cused. Letuli. came to the commandant
and made a strong and impertinent protest
against it, advocating such customs
as have been practiced by himself and
his people in the case of Fagaima. For
this he was severely reliuked by the commandant
and informed that the authority
of the United States would be maintained
in Tutnila by force if necessary.
It i not the wish of the court to da
away with the many good customs of the
Samoans. Their customs of giving food
to chiefs with alofa and of sh riu? them
mucH respect and courtesy are most com
mendable. The dignity with which thev
conduct their "fonoa" and the great con
sideration which they show to each other
on most occasions ore also much to bs
praised. The chiefs perform important
ofical duties which occupy. thir time and
the people must continue to carry food
to then according to custom and to show
them every respect. While the laws of
the United States will protect every resident
of Tutuila in his personal rights,
any deliberate neglect of a service, or
coartesy to a chief, which has become a
duty by caatora. will be punished.
The whole point at issue in the present
case is that Letuli deliberately ignored
the law and inflicted unusual pnnisliraeuvs
aad then failed to report them. TUlj
shows hist to be of a rebellious nature
aad unfit for the position of independent
authority which he has held under the

er team managed by sheer .plunges
through the line to score six poink in the
last five minutes of play. The final
score was 6 to O.mijfavor of the alumni.
The victors were much the heavier,
while the college boys, excelled -in speed
and team work. Weight triumphed,
howcer, and the studaats were defeated
in a dose, hard game.
The teams lined up a follows :
Alumni A. Waterhouse, center; Walker,
left guard: A. Judd, right guard ;
Greenwell, Fuller, left tackles: O. Judd.
left end; A. Judd. right end; Babbitt,
quarter; Hemenway, left halfback;

The alumni kicked off to the college
who, after several short bucks, kicked
the ball out of danger. The alumui,
however, found the college Hue invincible
and were forced to surrender the ball
on downs. After several more short
bucks Onhu again kicked. Fuller got
the ball on the ton-yard line, but vvn
nailed in his tracks. The alumni now-
tried to buck the sphere out of danger,
but were forced to kick.
By steady plunging i and kicking the
heavier men worked the liall down past
the center. Just at this point IngalU
circled the right, end for twenty yards.
Hemenway followed' suit on"thc opposite
side for fifteen yards more, landing tne
ball on the college's twenty-yard line..
At this point Oahu took a brace.' got the
ball on kicked it'onr of danger.
The alumni smelled n touchdown
however, and after several plunges they
tried a drop kick for goal. Perry broke
through and stopped the trick, how-
er.
In the second half the alumni started
in with a rush. After some bucking back
and forth near the tenter of the field
they kicked the. ball far into the college's
territory. 'As the ball descended it wat
fumbled and the alumni's end was on it
like a streak. The college line held like
Trojans, but they were slowly pushed
back until little Ingalls skirted the end
for the desired five points. Fuller kicked
the goal.
. The college started in with a vim. but
the time was too short and but very litt'e
could be done against their heavier opponents.
The game ended with the hall
in the center of the field.

Review of the Work Done Here by
the State Secretary of Massachusetts
and Rhode

The following deservedly complimentary
review of the work of "the Honolulu
Young Men's Christian Association was
writtea by R. M- Armstrong, state secretary
of Massachusetts and Bhode Island,
and appears ia the October number of
"Association Men," published at Chicago.
Ill:
I had the pleasure of, visiting Honolulu
this summer, and was agreeably surprised
at the prosperous condition in
which I found the Young. Men's Christian
Association of that city. Before I left
home & gentleman who had spent several
years on the islands nrged me to render
what assistance I could to the Honolulu
association, and spoke of this organization
as a missioaary enterprise. After
visiting the association and enjoying :ts
hospitalities. I was convinced that in
stead of its being a field for,mi9Iunary
work its plans and method might be for
lowed with profit by maay of our owu
associatioas.

that the three Cs" are important factors

The Chinese Branch.
(From Chinese Branch report, Honolulu
Association, by its president. Gor
Kim) : This Chinese Young Men's
Association at Honolulu was formed
in 1S75. for thepurpoe of spreading the
goiel of Christ among the Chinese.
At that time there were very few Chines--residents
in these islands who had evsr
heard of God and of our Savior, Jesus
Christ; but there was a sood Chinese
Christian. Seau Hun? by uanie. who
the first maa to preach the gospel to
us at Bethel church, and w ho also oiened
a night school for the study of English.
This was the beginning of the work
Christianize the Chinese in these islands.
Thereafter the members

more about .7en mill hi pimtI
In 1&7S. the expenses of the association
having increased, it was decided to opeu
a crockery store for the purpose of using
its profits to support the association. Ta-:
upper floor we turned into a spacious
hall and provided with books and magazines
for the benefit of its members.
In the same year we bought a burial lot
at Makiki for the interment of members.
In 1SS1 the Chinese church was completed
and we moved our association to
its parlor and provided a fund of $100 for
the support of the pastor nnd "Ski for
the janitor. IirlSSo the membership in
creased largely and the church parlor
was not large enough to accommodate the
members. We again decided to bay a
lot aud build a 'luiildinjr. Each member
subscribed lilerally towards the building
fund, nnd this building was completed,
costing over $5,000.
We have opened ji school for boj, uml
aKo provided rooms for the ue of people

Inspector of ischools T. II. Gihon and
Miss Davison returned Thursday evening
from Hauula, where he went to investigate
certain charges against Prof. Andrews.
The patrons of tho Hauula
schools have made several charges
against the professor, some of which were
sustained and some were not. The
feeling iu that community is against
Mr. Andrews. The recommendations of
Miss Davison and Inspector of Schoo's
Gibson will not be made known until they
are filed with the board of education.
A series of monthly afternoons "at
