to prohibit such merger without the

Mr.. Hally was prompted to this ac-
ton by the fact that bill passed by

WAS CONF[SSES
TO THE POLICE
Complications Result Which May
Affect Oahu College Fire
Investigation.
lFrom wedne.day'a AdverlI.er.l


The police have now in their hands
a complete confession from Joe vivas,
who is accused Of several robberies, nc.
cording TO statements made by Chief
McDunie yesterday morning, and side
issue has developed which, strangely
enough, Affects the investigation into
the Punahou College FIRE, which was
closed week ago
According TO the police, Vivas has
admitted that he stole a watch and
ninety dollars from teacher at the
Central Grammar School, and that he
spent the money. the watch being found
on him. He also admits that he stole
$50 from n Japanese on Monday last,
taking it from the place in the Stan
genwald building, where the victim left
1t. Fortunately for the Japanese, this
money has been recovered.
In the preliminary investigation
made by the chief Monday, the Jour
neyman plumber with whom Vivas was
working as a helper, declared emphati.
cally that the boy had never been out
OF his sight long enough to take the
1t now develops that Vivas, after
taking the money, rushed up Fort
street and left it with the bootblack
at a barber shop there, Vivas brother
inlaw is a barber there, incidentally,
and the bootblack overheard him dis
cussing the story published yesterday
morning. The toy confessed his share
in it, although he had never known
that the money had been stolen. and the
$50 was finally given to Editor Sheba
of the Hawaii Shinpo. who returned it
yesterday to its rightful owner.
That, however, it side issue to the
theft itself. The connection with the
Punahou fire comes in on the statement
of the journeyman that Vivas had been
with him at all times, that statement
having been proved deliberate false
hood. 1t happened that this journey
man was working on the improvements
to the girls dormitory of the college,
now destroyed, and there was suspi-
cion that the destructive fire owed its
origin to the man Is torch, of the kind
which is used by plumbers and painters
The man denied that this could be the
case and told story that allayed sus-
piciOn. His present statement, how
ever, casts grave doubts on his veracity
and the police argue that if he would,
as they state, lie to help his apprentice,
he would also do so to save himself
! from unpleasant results.
Whether this will result in any fur
ther action in regard to the fire is not
known as the police have busted them
selves only with Vivas and his alleged
confessed robberies.
! Mrs. Vivas, the boy Is mother, has
/ threatened to commit suicide if the po-
lice prosecute her son.
