THE WRECK OF
THE MARTHA DAVIS

Diver Terrill, who has been here for
the past three weeks working on the
submerged hulk of the wrecked Martha
Davis, says the condition of the water
is such that he cannot tell just what is
left of the cargo He discovered some
thing i'm sacks which, when held close
to his helmet, resembles an oil meal
but he has not brought any Of it to
the surface and cannot tell what it is.
There is a quantity of barley remaining
in the hold. The idea of the diver is
to use a centrifugal pump and get out
whatever is in her and so far it has
been impossible to get pump of that
sort here and the Lehua came up with
out one. He says he located the MAIN
mast by feeling his way and has put
his lines out so he can find 1t at any
time but with a diminution of rain the
water win clear up and there will be
fewer obstacles in the way Of progress.

MAY MAKE JAP
BOATS TURBINES
REPORTED THAT togo KISEN
KAISHA MAY HAVE LINERS
MADE INTO OIL BURNERS.

1t is not by any means unlikely that
a Japanese company, the Togo Kisen
Kaisha, will be the pioneer company
to introduce the turbine and oil burn
ing steamer on the Oriental-run. The
company has two large vessels being
built near Nagasaki for the San Fran
cisco run. These boats are to be first
class and up to date i'm every possible
respect.
According to news by the Mongolia
the company is considering the ad-
visibility of making them turbine
powered and equipping them with oil
as fuel. Whether the japanese gov
eminent would allow sucn a thing to
be done on the new boats is uncertain.
The vessels will be subsidized by the
government for possible use as war
ships or transports but whether the
officials win agree to give a subsidy
for the new style of boat is uncertain
Should the government refuse sub
sidy for turbine oil burners, it is not
likely that the company would so equip
them.

Evening Sun recently will be read with

The transformation will be rapid"
said Baron Kaneko yesterday in
his uptown apartments, which are as
simple in their appointments as the
lodgings Of a student. your Army Of
the Potomac was marching through
Washington In review one day, and a
week later those veterans of a hun
dred fights had scattered to their
homes and taken up the work they laid
down at the call of their country. So
will most of our soldiers now at the
front in Manchuria. And II you were
to see them on their farms at the loom
and behind the counter, you would
wonder that such quiet ,self-containod
Industrious little men-you might al
most say they were meek-could have
stormed 2O3-Meter Hill and filed the
Sha-ho with their dead in repeated as
saults upon the Russian lines. Well,
let us say no more about that. They
will be absorbed in their tasks Of peace
and will try to forget the horrors OF
war, although the memory of perils
shared and a common glory will endure
always. The reserves are to return
to civi life, but do not think the army
scheme will be modified. God forbid
again in this generation. but we must
be prepared to protect the nationality
which we have established on such a
firm base and cemented with our blood.

conditions there were far from being
a cause for calling out troops.
The governor said this morning that
he did not know who had telephoned
him. The wires did not seem to be
working very well, and the words were
hard to understand. However, he
gathered the information that the man
at the other end of the wire wanted
troops called out, and said there was
trouble at Honolulu plantation.
The message, whoever sent it, was
UNDECIDED. There was no trouble at
either Honolulu plantation or Waipahu
and the governor hung up the phone
and enjoyed a nights rest instead of
assuming command of the National
Guard and quelly imaginary riots.

GEAR ATTACKS
REVISED LAWS
CLAIMS THE BIG VOLUME WAS
NEVER LEGALLY ENACTED AS
THE LAW.

Ex-Judge Gear figuratively ripped up
the Revised Laws of Hawaii Saturday
morning before Judge Robinson, in ar
guing the habeas corpus petition of
Tom Pong. Gear argued for about
two hours on the proposition that the
legislature had never legally passed the
book. He said that the Code Commits
sion had exceeded it's powers, or had
exercised illegal powers, when it
amended laws, and that the Legislature
could not pass a whole book and make
it the law without reading it at all.
Gear said there were about thou
sand amendments of laws in the Re
Vised Laws, none of which had been
acted on by the legislature. He also
attacked the opium-selling section on
other grounds and as a further reason
for the discharge of Tom Pong he
claimed that the attempt of the legis-
lature to do away with Grand jury in
dictments in small cases here by call
ing them misdemeanOrs was a legal
failure and that Tom Pong could not
be tried without an indictment. This
like the other is a contention that eff
fects a large number of cases.
County Attorney e. A. Douthitt re-
piled to Gear quoting authorities in
support of the legislatures power to
pass an act making such a volume as
the Revised Laws the law of the land.
Judge Robinson granted the writ Of
habeas corpus, at the close of the ar
gument, on the ground that the Dis
trict Court had not had jurisdiction to
try and sentence Tom Pong. The court
held that an indictment was required,
and a jury trial, as the offense is made
an infamous crime by the possibility of
punishment by hard labor, The Judge
did not rule on the question OF the
validity of the Revised Laws

MASON A HERO.

Jim Mason, a native Hawaiian now
working as a line-man for the Redondo
(Cal) Beach Electric Company, is des-
cribed as a hero by the Eagles Aerie, a
paper published in the interest of the
Eagles at Los Angeles. In company
with Jimmy Cozad he was stringing
wires when Cozad ran foul of live
wire and was terribly burned. Mason
took his life in his hands by going to
the rescue despite the danger of get
ting $4,000 volts through his own body.
He rescued his mates body but life
was extinct.
