ANXIOUS FOR
THE DETAILS
tContiuued from page one.l

nothing Of the accident to the Ben
pington until next week when the
Warren arrives in San Francisco. Her
husband had evidently undergone some
operation i'm hospital at San Diego.
No details of the accident are given
by the Associated Press cable nor are
any names of those injured mentioned
F. ON the fact that no mention is made
of any of the officers having been kill
ed or injured, the suposition is that
the dead and injured belonged to the
crew. The Bennington had as a crew
1879 men and carried seven officers. Her
commanding officer was Commander
Lucien Young and the Executive OFF,
Ger Lieutenant Commander Victor
Blue.
While it naturally caused a great
shock to the officers at the naval sta
tion, still the news of the explosion
was not altogether of a surprising ma
ture. 1t has been known for a long
time I'm naval circles. that the Ben
nington is a sort of lame duck" She
has remarkable record for steaming
and has probably steamed farther than
any other craft i'm the Ameican navy
Her cruising speed was about 1Ih
knots an hour but she could be speed
ed up to IA knots. The intention of
the Navy Department had been to
put the vessel out of commission with
in a short time. 1t was thought by
her officers that she was to be sent
to Panama to relieve the gunboat
Princeton but the determination of the
department to lay her up soon was
known. The probabilities are that
the boileres of the vessel had been
worn too much and this condition re-
suited in the disastrous explosion.
One fact is noticeable in connection
with the explosion and this is that al
though but a small vessel. the loss of
life was great. This is due probably
to the fact that the crews quarters
were located in the proximity of the
boiler room
The officers Of the Bennington were
Commander Lucien Young command
ing; Lieutenant Commander Victor
Blue, executive officer; Lieutenant A.
r. H. Yates, navigating officer; Ensign
c. T. Wade, engineering officer; En-
signs n. p. Perry l.. Sahm and H.
Lacy; Paymaster c. Morris, Jr., and
Surgeon A. c. Peck. The dispatch
fails to state whether any of these
men were among the killed.
The Bennington is of LILO tons re-
gister, has twin screws and 3,426 horse
power. She is a sister ship to the
Concord and Yorktown. The vessel
carries as armament 6 siX-inch guns 4
Colts atltometic guns.
Commander Young is especially well
known in Honolulu and has a great
many friends in this city There will
be great deal of uneasiness until the
complete details of the accident and
the names of the victims are known.

SHOULD SUPPLY
LOCAL MARKET
Low SAYS THE PARKER RANCH
SHOULD BE DAIRY AND POUL-
TRY AND HOG RANCH.

Some more interesting expert testi-
mony about what was done and what
ought to have been done by Manager
f. w. Carter at the Parker ranch was
given before Judge Lindsay yesterday
Bben p. Low was stll on the
stand. He declared that there wee
many neglected opportunities at the
great ranch. Among them were rails
ing hogs and poultry dairying and
raising corn.
Low said that there ought to be a
dairy on the place and that if there
was, it could easily cut out the coast
diaries in the markets here and would
net from $4,000 to $4,000 per annum
for the ranch.
For hogs the ranch had the finest
facilities on the islands and it ought to
raise a large number, also corn ought
to be raised. They raise hogs in CAL
ifornia, don't they" asked kinney.
Low said they did. and also raised
corn, but that the Parker ranch should
supply the local market with both.
There is market for 900 head a month
he said.
Low also criticized the Parker ranch
way of loading cattle on steamers. He
said that a new and more humane
way had been discovered and was used
by him and some others, and that it
was far better for the animals.
Am l right in supposing that you
are the inventor of this new way?"
asked Kinney.
The witness reply was lost in an OBJ
lection of Magoon's to the interruption.
Kinney admitted that his remark was
in the nature of an interruption, and
impertinent
Then go ahead and don't pay any
attention. said Magoon, and Low
went ahead.

HAWAII MUST OUELL
HER OWN RIOTS
Continued from mage one.

commanding the post at Honolulu. In
1t he states that the Hawaiian legisla-
ture has refused to appropriate any,
thing for the support of the National
Guard; that heretofore the police have
been relied upon 20 quell strike dis
turbances but that recently the Jap
anese have shown an entire disregard
of the police. The Governor had taken
up the matter to ascertain exactly his
authority in calling upon Federal
troops and had been informed that, un-
der the law, such a call would be re-
sponded to.
The question was referred to General
Davis, judge advocate general of the
army, and his memorandum on the
subject was approved today by General
oliver, Acting Secretary of War In
this memorandum General Davis says:
Il gather that there is disposition
on the part of the Hawaiian Legisla-
ture to avoid making provision for the
preservation of order, and to saddle the
duty of police protection upon the War
Department. If such be the case the
Governor should be advised to call the
Legislature together for the purpose Of
making adequate provision for the pro-
lection of life and property in the Ha-
waiian Islands"
A second memorandum from Colonel
| Mcclellan, states that the Japanese
have control of the situation by reas3i
of the scarcity of labor on the sugar
plantations, and from the fact that
many Japanese are leaving the islands
for California.
WASHINGTON, July S.-Army Off
GERS are greatly Interested in the re-
suit of the interview of Governor Car
| ter of Hawaii and the President at
Oyster Bay. The former official has
come from his island Territory for the
purpose of ascertaininug to what ex-
tent he may call upon the regular
military force in an emergency for the
preservation of law and order.
There is much politics mixed up
in the local squabble between the
Governor and the Legislature, which
latter part of the insular government
| refused to provide for a militia. The
allotment from the regular Govern
ment for the National Guard of Hawaii
will be insufficient to maintain that
| body of citizen-soldiers, and it 1s
uOOIleu 10 uISdppedI unless the LSSlS-
| lature makes an appropriation.
There has been much consulting "
the law in the State and War Depart
ments, with the result that the Presi-
| dent has been advised that nothing
can be done toward employing the
regular Army, or that part of it On
duty in Honolulu, in policing the ISL
and. In time of grave emergency,
when local means FOR suppressing dis
order and riot prove inadequate the
Governor of Hawaii, like the Governor
of New York, may call for Federal aid.
There is no intention, however, Of
placing the regular Army, or any por-
ton of it, at the command of the Gov
ernor of Hawaii. IT is expected that
the Hawaiian Legislature will provide
in proper manner for the island militia.
