SCOTCH VERDICT
FOR JAPANESE
TECHNICALLY GUILTY THE JAPS RECENT
LY CAU6HT BY REVENUE OFFICERS
GO FREE THROUGH FLAW
Much conjecture has bee a expressed j
over the reason why the jury in the '
ca?e of the seal poaching Japs, recent
ly tried at Valdez, were released when j
the evidence seemed so clear sgalns:
them. Some light is throun iifon thr
case by the fo l)owicg firm the Va'dei
Prospector:
"After an all night sesMoa which
?eerned certain to eod in a disagree
ment, the jury In the case of the crew
of the Japanese schooner Kaiva charg
ed with seal poaching otT St. i'aul
island, a verdict was reacheJ ibis
morning of guilty against three men
and of not guilty as to all the other
thirty-one. The three luckless ones
were the crew of the small boat which
was caught by the Manning inside the
three mile limit with three freshly
kiiled seals in their possession. Their
names are J. Kumamoto, S. N?gaski
and K. Matsu.
"The important evidence against the
men waacbisfly that of Capt. Cantwel)
of the cutter Manning, although other
officers gave testimony on minor points.
"Nobody doubted that Capt. Cant
well's testimony was absolutely accu
rate and fair but because of it* fidelity
to f?ct it fell short of legal proof. He
testified as an expert of 23 years ex
perience In the patrol of the seal
island* that the seals taken had not
been killed more than four hours:
that the sains were dripping with
fresh red blood. The jury coulu not do
Otherwise than believe him but proof
that the seals had been killed inside
the three mile limit was absolutely
wanting."

"I used the Cuticura Remedies with
great success. My face was a mass of
pimples and the dandruff was so bad
on my scalp that my hair all began to
fall out, and a friend of mine told me
of Cuticura and I began to use Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. Before a month
I saw a great change for the better,
and now I am entirely cured. 1 had
