vestigating the recent stabbing of a
Japanese at Aiea by Lum Yung.
He reports that Iwamoto and Sugi-
haro, two of the three men stabbed,
are still in the hospital at Aiea and

was stabbed in the lobe of the right
lung.
Sugiharo is suffering from a stab
in the back.
G. Oki the third man stabbed, died
in the Japanese hospital in Honolulu

refuge in a house to escape from the
japanese who were pursuing him, and
that once inside a room he picked up
a carving knife and waited for his
assailants to come along.
The inquest on Oki was commenced
last night, but was adjourned till
Monday to allow of the presence of
at least one of the Japanese now in
the hospital at Aiea.

an effort to reach some definite con.
clusiOn as to the nature of the cpl

shall Reid, who, with Lieutenant Com.

the hydroplane in which they were
flying had fallen into Delaware bay

when we were twelve miles from
Cape May, one hundred and fifty feet
in the air and making forty miles an
hour, the engine exploded, the aero
plane caught fire and we dropped like
stone, and when we struck the water
the waves extinguished the flames.
Pontoons kept us afloat and we drifted
for fifteen hours. Finally we bumped
into stake driven IN the bottom Of
the bay and we made fast to it. In the
morning an oyster boat picked us up.
If the accident had happened on land
nothing could have saved US. We
neither were hurt"
