first inning, and the Stars came back
In their half of the first and sent four
men over the plate In short order.
The way they did Il was treat to
see. AZ they knocked Ishikawas deliv-
cries all over the feld. The bases were
full when Hoopii came to the plate
and picked out a nice one which netted
him two Dagger. bringing the three
men home-Kan Yen. Sumner and Ay-
lett Hoopii came home later.
This was something of a surprise to
the Honolulu fans. and II filed them

Tabor'S Stand On
Dynamite Charges

Indianapolis. May Following a
conference with local labor leaders
here during which the support of the
American Federation of Labor was
pledged to John ]. Mcnamara in his
fight against conviction of the dyna-
hitting charges now against him,
President Gompers of the Federation.
today, gave a detailed explanation OF
labor's stand in the case.
1T is not a matter of a class fight
or a fight of labor against any asso-
ciation," said Gompers, but simply
an effort to see that Mcnamara is
given as fair a trial as the law al
lows.
Labor is not going further than the
law in presuming that the men now
accused are innocent until found giul-
ty.
But the manner in which the men
were arrested and spirited to Califor-
mia is enough to arouse suspicion. We
believe the men innocent. But in rails
ing fund for their defense we are
not countenancing their acts should
they be proven guilty"
Gompers will probably remain here
throughout the day as another con-.
ference has been arranged for this af-

COMBINATION FIRE
ENGINE SOON READY

Superintendent of Machinery Arthur
L: Tracy of the local fire department
has nearly completed his experimental
motor driven steam fire engine, and
it probably will be ready for a test
in a few days.
The combination, as already describ-
ed in the Farmer, consists of one of
the reserve steamers of the local de-
partment mounted on Locomobile
chassis, of 40 horsepower the whole
making a six-wheeled vehicle.
The first experiment will be to test
the power of the automobile, the speed
at which the steam fire engine may be
drawn, the ease in handling, and pos
sibi.ities in turning sharp corners.
