Davis Finds a New Compliment
for Gear Jury Excused
for the Term.
The first bankruptcy case started in
the Territory of Hawaii since annex
ation was settled, by Judge Estee yes
terday. The case was that of J. H.
Butterfield whose petition was filed De
cember 29th, 1900, a short time after
the United States Court was establish
ed in the islands. The bankrupt was
discharged over a year ago but the
estate could not be settled because of
the failure of George A. Davis, who
was appointed trustee, to request such
action. Davis had been ordered to ap
pear in court yesterday afternoon for
the settlement of the matter, and was
on hand a few minutes before court
opened, but disappeared however before
Judge Estee arrived, and never return
ed even after the adjudication.
The assets of the estate in the peti
tion were listed at $9,150 while the li
abilities amounted to $10,220.21. The
most of the property consisted of real
estate and the $4500 realized from its
sale were required to pay mortgages.
The principal creditors aside from the
holders of the mortgages failed to real
ize anything on their claims. A claim
of over $200 for taxes Is also left un
settled. Davis received about $260 for
his services and in the order discharg
ing him yesterday came in for another
five dollars. t ' '
Judge Estee ruled that taxes owing
to the Territory actea as a lien upon
the property and that no party could be
relieved of payment of such taxes. As
in this case there was not sufficient
money to pay the taxes he said that
he would order the balance on hand
paid to Assessor Pratt. This amounted
to $31.35 out of which court costs also
must be paid.
F. E. Thompson was referee when
the bankruptcy case was first called
up and ordered the final settlement,
while W. T. Rawlins is the present
referee. There was some question as
to which referee was entitled to the
fee of ten dollars, but Thompson offer
ed to waive his, claim.
THE SUMNER MATTER. !
Judge Gear spent almost the entire!
morning in Circuit Court in hearing
arguments in the case of John K. !
Sumner charged with being insane.
Henry Highton and George Davis held
the floor alternately, and there were
some rather wild flights of oratory on
the part of the latter. Davis referred
to Gear as "the blazing star of this
republic." He said also that he had a
colossal task, opposed as he was by
"people, with imperial powers." His
own argument he referred as "my hum
ble Territorial way."
Mr. Highton participated in a few
lively arguments with Judge Gear in
which the court managed to come out
only second best. To refuse a man the
right to prove he was not insane. High
ton characterized as preposterous and
Davis' claim that the defendant could
not answer within the fourteen days
specified by the summons; he referred
to as a "slave to an absurd technical
ity." Judge Gear reserved his ruling
but intimated several times that he
would hold against Highton and refuse
to take jurisdiction until the return
day.
THE JURY EXCUSED.
Judge Gear excused the jury for the'
twra yesieraay, though the jurors have
not been officially notified of the fact.
All the criminal cases will go over to
the special term under Gear's order,
malign juage tobinson has made
piuMbion ior a jury. He stated
terday that he would not rail
for his special term which begins next
.uunuay. ,
THE MURDER CASES.
A motion for a new trial was filed
yesterday in the case of Kimura found
guilty of murder in the first degree
The usual statutory objections to the
verdict are urged.
George Ferris appeared in court yes
terday morning for sentence but his
case was postponed until ihis morning.
Argument on motion for a new trial
will be presented today.
COURT NOTES.
The objections to the confirmation of
the sale of the Waikiki property of the
estate of F. S. Keiki by Mrs. H. M.
Damon, the purchaser, was argued be
fore Judge Gear at the noon hour yes
terday. It was claimed that the prop
erty did not conform with the descrip
tion of that advertised to be sold. About
an hour had been spent on the argu
ment yesterday, besides a previous dis
cussion of two hours, when Magoon
made the discovery that the advertise
ment had been correct, and the objec
tions to the confirmation were with
drawn. Motion to strike the answer from the
files in the case of Elizabeth K. Pratt
vs. Y. Ahin et al. has been filed.
A petition was filed yesterday by A.
W. Carter asking for the probate of the
will of Harriet Carter, his mother, who
died October 22, 1898. The petitioner
alleges that the deceased left a last
will bequeathing the sum of $100 to
each of her grand children, the residue
to be divided equally between Harriet
Layman Hempstead and Florence N
Carter, her daughters. The division
was made without the probate oflthe
will. There was due however the sum
of $250 on a mortgage by R. D. Cut
ter of Washington which was paid and
fully satisfied. The satisfaction was
not accepted and the mortgage remains
a cloud upon the title. The will has
been lost and A. W. Carter asks to
be appointed administrator that he may
give a perfect title to the property in
Volved.
