RESUME OE THE
WEEK'S DOINGS
Honolulu, June 22.— In an editorial
appearing in today’s issue of the Nippu
Jiji, the organ o f the leaders of the
Japanese strike movement, an appea*
for interference in the Hawaiian strike
situation is made to the Japanese gov
ernment. The article alleged that the
Japanese have been accorded unfair
treatment by the courts and by the
Federal and territorial officials o f the
islands.
The Jiji has supported the leaders of
the higher wage movement ever since
the strike of the Japanese sugar plan
tation hands was called.
The offices
of the paper were searched on June 11,
and numerous papers were seized by
the territorial authorities which, it is
alleged, contained evidence o f a wide
spread conspiracy among the Japanese
on the islands.
Y. Soga, editor of the Jiji, was in
dicted twice by the territorial grand
jury, following the seizure, once on a
charge of conspiracy to incite riot and
once on a charge o f conspiracy to com
mit murder. He wa3 released on fur
nishing $2,250 bail bonds to cover both
indictments.
The efforts o f certain of the Japan
ese to give the Hawaiian situation an
international aspect are apparently
concentrating here, as evidenced by the
J iji’s special to the Japanese govern
ment.
San Francisco, June 21.— Terminat
ing in a disagreement of the jury, with
ten men determined on acquittal and
two steadfastly resolved upon convic
tion, the trial of Patrick Culhoun, pres
ident o f the United Railroads, came to
an end at 12 o’clock yesterday.
Five
months and a week had elapsed since
the wealthy streetcar magnate made
his first appearance in court to answer
to the charge of offering u bribe of
$4,000 to a supervisor to obtain a privi
lege fur his corporation, and a period
of 24 hours had been consumed in fruit
less deliberation.
Not until each juror had pronounced
as hopeless the prospect of a verdict
was the order for their liberation made
by Judge William P. Lawlor.
Prose
cution and defense gave assent to the
discharge and the proceeding ended
within 15 minutes.
A fte r ordering tha discharge o f the
jury Judge Lawlor drew his chair to
the edge o f the platform nearest the
jury box and addressed to the 12 men
some informal remarks severely criti
cizing the laws and usages that made
possible the expenditure of three
months in the empanel o f a jury and
congratulating and thanking them up
on their worth as citizens.
He declared the courts were utterly
helpless to prévi nt such occurrences
and recommended that the legislature
be influenced by the people to make al
teration in the laws that governed
court, procedure in the ernpanelment of
jurors. Under the orders of the court
the attorneys will be expected to fix
date for another trial upon the same
indictment at this morning’s session of
court.
“ I am ready to try this case again
and I will go ahead tomorrow if nects
sary, ” said Mr. Heney an hour after
the adjournment.
In a long statement issued by Mr.
Calhoun last night he said;
“ O f course I am disappointed at the
failure of the jury to acquit me o f un
biased charges that have been brought
against me. I should have liked my
vindication by the jury to have been
absolute.”
