WILL PHOTOGRAPH
WAIKIKI SEASHORE {

Here's a chance to get your "pictur
TUX" with hundreds of others without
expense. The Hawaii Promotion Com
mittee is desirous of obtaining real
live photograph of Waikiki beach when
the sea front is populated with bathers
and spectators, and photographer Ar
thur Rice of Rice & Perkins will make
a special effort to obtain just the
photograph wanted.
At 2 o'clock this afternoon Mr.. Rice
will take big picture of Waikiki beach
taking in all the places between the
Young Hotel Annex and Diamond
Head. He viii erect a tripod upon the
coral reef about opposite the Hawaiian
Hotel Annex and from this point of
vantage viii take his panoramic pic

beach should be well inhabited at the

it. They were constructed for conceal
ment. 1t is the same with many of our
fortiffcations in New York harbor. The
great assistance that would be afforded
the enemy by even rough sketch of
a battery location is therefore easily
seen.'
The seriousness with which Lieuten-
ant Slattery considers the publication
of the Waikiki map is shown by
his remark: There is possibility that
the site mentioned win be abandoned
and negotiations begun for another. A
change can be made at this stage with
out difficulty
Asked as to the extension of the plan
of defense to other islands, Lieutenant
Slattery said: mo defenses outside of
Oahu are contemplated now but L think
Notifications at HiIo will have to be
undertaken and should be at an early
date"

Lieut.. Slattery has said to one of the
tenants on the Campbell property at
Waikiki that the Government will want
that place and the one next to it. not
specifying which one. Probably the one
towards Diamond Head is indicated
the Lyman holding.
In an interview in last nights Bulle-
tin, Lieut.. Slattery made it clear that
the defensive plans are much more elab-
crate than those given in the Adver-
publishing what the papers find out
AS his interview is discussed editorial
ly, it is copied entire, as follows:
Lieutenant Slattery, of the U. S. A.
Engineer Corps, objects to the news
papers attempting to pry into the mat
ter of the location of forts and bat
teries for the protection of Honolulu
and Pearl Harbor and for the general
defense of the Islands. He especially
considers it out of place for a news
paper to publish maps showing the
proposed location of forts or batteries
and says that such things give CEN
sor legitimate duties in countries where
censorship goes.
Il think there is often unnecessary
secrecy affected in military circles.
Unimportant matters are screened with
an air of mystery all out of proportion
But in the matter of the location OF
forts and other defenses 1 think these
should be kept out of the papers The
report in the Advertiser this morning
locating eight forts, was not obtained
from me, and, as a matter OF tact, II
is incorrect. I might say IN passing
that there will be more than eight Ioca-
tions on this island, but l am not at
liberty to give specific information, ana
I think the papers should refrain from
prying into these matters for publlca-
ton. 1 think the impropriety of pub
fishing a map of proposed battery Is
evident No paper should publish any
thing that will benefit an enemy.
The actual emplacement of guns IN
the forts are kept absolutely secret
while the forts are in the hands OF. the
engineer corps, and the policy OF the Ar
tillery.
ITO show how particular other coun-
tries are [ visited Malta; could go At
will about the city but could not enter
any of the forts. In going INTO the
harbor at Malta we can see the fortress
walls, but We have not the 1alhteSt
idea of what is back of them. Inc
same is true of Gibraltar and also. am
told, at Esquimalt. This policy should
be observed here from the beginning.
1T ought to be sufficient for the pub
lie to know that the plans for the de-
fensa of Honolulu and Pearl Haroor
are so complete that it will be exceed
ingly interesting for any kind OF at
lacking craft to get in. The main point
is that this place will be mighty well
defended, and l think<that is enough.
In building a battery it is the en-
deavor of the constructing officers 10

25 MEN GUARD
VENTS BODY.
II Lies in Mountains Near Kelley
View Just Where il Was
Found.
IT HAS NOT BEEN DISTURBED.
Place Where il is Has Recently Been
Burned Over aud His Hair
Is ScOrched.

Bristol, Va, May 9-The body Of II.
l.. Wentz, discovered in the mountains
near Kelley View. Wise county Nir-
glnia. Sunday afternoon, by a miner
employed at Blackwood, Va, while
hunting lost COW, lies tonight identic-
ally as It was first seen, and around Is
stands a guard Of Is men, under the
command Of the superintendent Of the
Osaka plant OF he Virginia Coal & Iron
company. The body has not been dis
turbed I'm any way ana will not be until
tomorrow, when -, b, Wentz and j. l..
Wcntz, brothers OF the dead man, ar
rive on the scene. They are en- route
tonight In a special train from Phia-
delphia. No inquest has been held.
As TO the amount Of the reward, II
is generally believed that the man who
discovered the body VIII receive $4,000
However, no one has az yet spoken
with authority on this subject This
amount was offered by the Virginia
Iron & Coal company as substitute
for a similar amount at first offered by
the Wentz family. As no examination
Of the body has been made, little SO far
has been learned as to the cause Of
death. All seem 60 agree that he was
shot, but whether II was suicide or
murder Is the question, Two of MS
front teeth are gone, presumably shot
out and holes thought to be bullet
holes are found through the coat and
vest just below the ribs on the left
side.
The place In which the body lies has
been recently burned off by forest fires,
and the dead mans hair and clothing
are scorched. The body is lying about
80 feet from the mountain path and
Is now easily seen for 100 feet Last
fall, when the searching party was out
the spot was hidden by underbushes
and leaves. The color Of the clothing
Is so much like that Of the log on which
the head rests that the searchers failed
to find Wentz last fan, although they
passed within 20 feet of him. Num-
bers Of men have passed near the spot
recently without discovering the body
