HUNTING BAD men
Lawless Soldiers Will Be
Punished If Discovered.
Official Effort to Apprshsnd ths
RobbIng Qulntstts- Gen. King
Awaiting Orders.

Gen. King and Col. Barber deplore
most deeply the act Of certain soldiers
in robblng a Chinese storekeeper In
Manoa Valley Tuesday night, and the
most diligent efforts are being made to
detect the guilty parties. Officers at
the Park were taken into conference
yesterday morning and rigidly ques-
toned concerning their men. 1t de-
veloped that the troops from the Ari-
IONA are clear. for the reason that they
wore only blue blouses with white he'll
NETS that night. The raiders described
by the Chinese were clothed other
| wise.
Col. Barber now believes that some
of his men are the guilty parties, and
is worried and angry about the matter.
II they are apprehended, as will likely
be the case, they will be shown up In
the most complete and humiliating
manner possible. Col. Barber feels
with the whole city that a few such
marauders will demoralize camp;
and that they should be dealt with
promptly and severely.
| The Company from the New York
regiment did not come in yesterday
and may not until the Scandal arrives

II arrangements can be made for them
to make room at Camp Mckinley fol
the Scandals troops. This Is on the
assumption that the Arizona and Scan.
dia troops are to stop here.
Gen. King is anxious to go on tC
Manila. He likes Honolulu, but yearni
for more active military service. Nat
urally he is waiting for news by thu

CARN|SHEE FAILS
New Audit Act Heads OFF
Bill Collectors.
Action Against Auditor - Thrown
Out-Sharp Criticism Of the
Law 10 Made.

The new Audit Act has thrown a
bomb into the camp Of bill collectors.
Under it there appears no way Of gar
nishing the wages of Government
employee. Heretofore proceedings were
taken directly against the department
employing the delinquent. That
worked all right. Now, however, sal
aries are paid by warrants on the Aud
itor and must, under the law, be made
out in full.
'Mahuka VS.. Z. Devauschelle and II.
Laws, auditor, garnishee," was the
title Of a case brought up in the Dis
trict Court Wednesday. After the
usual hearing Judge Wilcox ruled
that the garnishee named could not be
held liable, because he was not the
employer of defendant and had no dis
erection in the disposition Of defend
ants wages.
In a speech made on the floor of the
House of Representatives here few
months ago it was claimed that the
Audit Act subsequently becoming a
law, would save to the Government
the big sum of at least $4,000 an
nually in clerk hire. There are nc
signs yet Of any saving to amount to
anything and all the clerks In all the
offices are complaining that the act
causes more work and trouble than
they had under the old system. 1t is
asserted that the law is beautiful in
theory, but cumbersome method in
practice. One remark made Is that
some amendments insisted upon by
the Cabinet impaired the promised eff
ficiency of the act.
