W. II. Smith of LcDIotid & Smith was
asked to tell the truth about the Snmedi
case which agitates the Herald. He said:
"Tlie point of law for which we con
tended was not brought up at all. It was
dropped at the request of the Sheriff. He
based his request 011 the belief that to
have police officers pulled as vagrants
would demoralize the force and consented
that a charge of assault and battery be
placed against sameut, WHICH was none
and resulted iu u conviction.
"What I want to say especially Is that
The Herald makes a false statement when
it says we dropped the matter when the
Sheriff showed us the law. We are ac
quainted with better legal authority than
we consider Mr. Andrews to be. At least
wc have taken no pointers from him yet."

evening iu Pircmau's Hall to consider

forty men. K. E. Richards was chosen
chairman and A, II. Jackson secretary.
Mr. Vaunatta spoke iu favor of a reor
ganization of the department recommend
ing two hose companies. He said also ,
that a pressing need is more hydrants
and more hose. Requisition for more I
hydrants and hose was sent to Honolulu
three years ago, but nothing has ever
been heard in reply to the request, !
Dr. Rice, W. Vanuatta and A. II.
Jackson were appointed a committee to '
draft resolutions to the Legislature ask
lug for an appropriation for the Hilo Pire j
Department. .
Dr. Rice spoke in the same strain,
others making concurring remarks. I
On motion of Vaunatta, a meeting was
calicit lor next Tuesday evening June 2,
for the purpose of reorganizing the Hilo
Pire Department. The old company will
be disbanded at this meeting.
Tuesday afternoon the fire engine
which has been standing for months in n
shed unused was taken out on the streets
and Given a trial. Connections wcte
' made with the hydrant at the comer of
Waianueuue street and the two lines 01
hose attached. When the water was
turned on and the engine started two
streams of water stxmtcd forth with suffi
cient force to reacii the third story of any
building.
The feed pipe was then laid iu a tank
of water and the hose streams played with
the same force. The engine worked satis,
factorily. The only adverse comment
heard was that it took too much time to
fire up.
