ASHINGTON. June 27, 1902. A
report has been current here for
several days that Judge A.' B.
Humphreys of Hawaii had ten
dered his resignation. Inquiry at tb
Department of Justice failed to elicit
either an affirmation or denial of the
rumor, but from the best Information
obtainable there is no doubt that the
judge has resigned. A gentleman in
this city informed your correspondent
several days ago that he received a
letter from Hawaii about the first of
June saying Judge Humphreys had in-
formed a confidential friend that he
had forwarded his resignation. . One.----
familiar with affairs in the Department
of Justice, while refusing to discuss the
reported resignation, said that there
would undoubtedly be some changes In
the Judiciary of Hawaii In the very
near future and intimated mat not
only would there be a successor to
Humphreys, but to Gear as welL
When Humphreys left here one year
go, after his vindication from the
harges preferred agatnat him by the ,
Bar Association, he went away in great
glee, declaring that he would have
Governor Dole's scalp. It Is an open
secret here that the real savior of
Humphreys from removal at that time
was Judge Hoyt, Assistant Attorney
General, Judge Hoyt writing the re
port on the hearing before the Depart
ment of Justice. It Is also an open se
cret that Judge Hoyt now realizes that .
he was terribly imposed upon by
Humphreys; that Humphreys deceived
for a
document, and this gave time
clearing of the atmosphere.
That it was ineffective was shown by
the speech of Mrs. Anakou. Fhe want
ed the whole thing laid on the table.
She contended that to reduce the ex
ecutive committee from sixty-live to
thirty was too great a cutting down.
The thirty, she said, only wanted to
run the party. She was greatly ex
cited at times, and there were some
hot interchanges during- her remarks.

When seen after the convention
President Kalauokalanl said that he
had little to say concerning the trouble.

to make themselves heard in their de

of cheers, not a single man on the other
side objecting, as they had determined
that at least they would keep faith,
the motion to lay on the table wan
passed and with a flourish the docu
ment was laid aside by the presiding
officer.
Then it was that Prince Cupid ro.e
for the first time during the pessiou of
the convention. He was quiet and self
contained, but spoke with deep em
phasis. His words were addressed to
President Kalauokalani and he was lis
tened to with attention. He said:

"Last night at midnight you came to

the Judge and his friends In a way
( that would have done credit to a Fil
ipino. Of course Judge Hoyt will not
talk of the matter for publication, but
a close friend of judge Hoyt's, In talk
ing over Hawaiian affairs with me h
few evenings ago at the Fhoreharn,
where Judge Hoyt had been calling up
on some friends, said that Judge IIoj t
wished very much that he could undo
what he had done In behalf of Humph
reys of Hawaii. This gentleman said
that Humphreys had lied to Hoyt in the
most bare-faced manner and that some
of the Judge's friends, when they learn
ed the true status of the eae, wire
disposed to go at once to the President
and demand Humphreys' immediate
removal.
If Humphrey has sent In his reig
nation, as there in no doubt he has

confidence that rut one in Hawaii will
be more glad of the fact than will the
officials of the Department of Justice,
I where Humphreys, since his treachery
and deceit towards Judge Hoyt has
been uncovered, is decidedly persona
non grata.
In keeping with his egotism It tan
be further said on good authority thai
Humphrey?, in tendering his resigna
tion, has tried to name his successor.
.After what Judge Hoyt knows of
Humphreys it is pretty safe to say that
any man he will recommend as his suc

up once more. I want to say to our
older men that we are proud of them,
and do not want to take from them any
of the honor which is theirs and has
been won for them by their labors.
From now on I split away from your
side. I will resign from the Home Rule
party and never more will I be con
nected with it. I have been laboring
for the rights of the people that they
may have the power in their own

The subject of a successor to Humph

When the Third Judge was appointed
Edgar Caypless and Lyle A. Dickey
were the leading candidates next to
Judge Bobinson, who was appointed.
Caypless told a friend here just before
his departure for Hawaii, a few days
ago. that he would not now accept the
judgeship unler any circumstances. If
thi be true, and it would seem that
it is, Caypless irf no doubt out of the
way now. Judge Dickey had a good
