"Tlio tactics employed by the wor thy gentleman assisting the prosecu tion In this case are. In my opinion, unprofessional, and I think It high time that ho ccasu to attempt to fooi with tills court," excitedly declared Attorney .Tcseph I.lghtfoot In sar castic vein this morning, pointing an accusing linger in the direction ot l.crrln Andrews, lloth parties wcra contending before Judge I.ymer for (hi? release of certain funds alleged to belong -to a Japanese. Nakagawa Is a resident cf Hawaii, He Is alleged by the police depart ment to have attempted to make a getaway for Japan. When appre hended by Chief McDulllc as he was i topping aboard the fJa:JflcVMall Hnor. Manchuria,' the Nakagawa effects re velled tlio presence ot over two hun dred and thirty dollars In various coinage and denominations. . It was over these moneys that At. torncyg I.lghtroot, representing Na kagawa, and Andrews, who claimed to represent certain Japanese cano plantcis, h&vevUnjJiidulglug-lH,or,-lal tilts for tlio past two days' that have. falrJj' luado the cars of the cotiit attendants wiggle with sup pressed alnmutlon and Interest. Nakag'atfa left tlio District Court room this, morning apparently a free man. Despite the protests coming from thtt-JJIghtroot camp, the money that hasVljeeii retained In tlio pos icsslon of- Sheriff Jarrctt's depart ment wn&Jtumed over to n Japanese named Yoheynmn, whom Nakagawa rioted on tlio stand this morning was tlio rightful owner of tlio coin. Nakagawn Is said to have signified his Intention of returning to the Is land of Hnwail, there to face his ac cufeip, wliohave alleged Hint he era liezzled sj'eral sums of money. The Jaiiaucgu declares that ho borrowed from Youeyama the monoy found In his picteVslon by tho police, I.lghtfoot: did nut tontine his ver bal excoriation to Andrews nloite, but ho ulso'tcol. occasion to flay tho pnllco department In calling tho at tention of -Judge, I.ymer to the claim that ho hnd been shown a marked dlrrourtesj; In the matter of an Inter view which had been conducted by Deputy Sheriff Hose mid Nakagawa, his client "The police department is subject to censure," Insisted I.lghtfoot as he stepped before the bench mid glared at Deputy Sheriff Charles Hose, who was Bitting in the witness box, giv ing testimony concerning certain statements alleged to have been made by Llghtfoot's client yesterday dt which the lawyer had not been In vited to be present. Turning to his assistant, I.lghtfoot concluded: "The poltco department should bo severely called down by your Honor." Judge I.ymer evidently did not concur In the I.lghtfoot recommenda tions, and. In fact, the court finally ruled that the police department had the right to take such moneys under its clinrgo as arc found In tho pos. session of a prisoner. It was at tho order of Judge I.y mer that the two hundred and thirty dollars found on Nakagawa will be turned over to Yoneynma at the earliest opportunity. When Prosecuting Attorney llrown arose to offor a motion towards granting a nolln prosequi In the case, he started something that was dlffl cult to stop. lloth I.lghtfoot and Andrews wero on their (eet In an Instant. 1 Trembling with suppressed emrf tlon, I.lghtfoot waded Into Andrews and charged unprofessional conduct, but kept his remarks within the bounds that Insured freedom from contempt proceedings bolng insti tuted. Nnkagawa's legal counsel wanted, to- bo shown and he depre cated the display of funny business by tho learned counsel on the other side. Andrews attempted to show that I.lghtfoot was solicitous over the fato of the money In that he expected his fee therefrom. Tho old nnd grimy walls of the couitroom fairly rever berated with the broadside bombard ment of legal pyrotechnics. With tho r.llng out from the room of Nakagawa and several Japanese friends, tho affrighted davo of peace was liftluced to descend upon tho building, hnd tho" court agnln as sumed tho even tenor of its usual grind.
