train Is KILLS
HIM FRIDAY
18TH
cannery Employe on Way to
Work Meets Death IN the
Railway Yards

The number 13, supposd to be repre-
sentative of all the bad luck in the
world, displayed Its potency as male
VIOLENT agent this morning in the case
of Theodore Alexandrovitch an EN-
ploye of the Hawaiian Pineapple Co
when on Friday the thirteenth he was
run over and killed by freight train
No. 13 in the Oahu railway yards.
The engine carrying five cars ahead
left the station at an early hour this
morning
Shortly after leaving the station, the
brakeman stationed on the forward
car noticed the man walking In the
middle Of the track and in the direc-
tion of the several canning factories.
Despite shouts and calls, as well as
the ringing of the engine bell, the
man seemingly paid no attention to
the warning. Before the heavy train
could be brought to full stop, four
cars had passed over Alexandroyitch
severing the body and dragging the
remains for some distance.
Coroner Charles Rose was summon
ed and Immediately conducted an in
vestigation.
Alexandrovftch is man Of . family,
a wife and two daughters and one
son surviving. For some time past he
has resided at Camp Number 8.
From inquiry made by Coroner Rose,
tie brakeman claim that every effort
possible was made to warn the man OF
the approach of the train.
He alleged by Chinese witness
to the tragedy to have turned at one
time during the progress Of the train
and said that there was still plenty OF
time. Coroner Rose took the state
ment of Chinese named PAX Ching
this morning, who declares that he was
standing upon the platform of nearby
pineapple cannery when the Russian
fell beneath the wheels of the car.
Engineer Jacinto. Rodrigues, OF the
freight train besides other members
of the crew have been summoned to
appear before the coroner at an, In
quest to be held at o'clock tomor-
row afternoon. r.
Inquiry made by the Coroner this
morning developed the fact that the
Russian was on his way to work. An
examination of his effects brought to
light a battered metal badge such as
is used at the pineapple canneries, the
number being 1850"

gested. Admiral Cowles and several
of the navy and marine officers have
been giving the matter of suitable
site serious consideration for several
weeks past, and there have been a
number of inspection tours to various
points on the island. The govern
ment wants a first-class range for
the navy and marines, and is ready
to spend the money for equipping it,
but when it comes to acquiring the
land, it is quite another matter.
The proposed trolley line to Pearl
Harbor would play an important part
in the selection of a site beyond Dia-
mond Head, for there must be an
easy and economical way of trans
porting the riflemen to and from the
range. - .

 Involved.
BRANDT TO GET BAIL
Former Convict Now Practically q Free Mm-OiiicerS lfn-
 der Charges.

New York, Feb. 24.-Police Con- missioner Waldo took hand in the case of F. E. Brandt, former valet for M. l.. Schiff, today, preferring charges against Detective Lieutenant Joseph D. Woodbridge and John Fay Tor, who brought forth the false criminal record used to send Brandt to prison for thirty years. They will be arraigned next Thursday and M. L. Schiff will probably ap- pear as witness in their behalf
 With Brandt practically a free man every person in any way connected with the imposition of his sentence of thirty years, is now either facing punishment provided by law CT smarting undera censure from a high source. M5 L. schiff and his former attorney, Howard S. Cans, will be indicted, it is declared, by the grand jury conducting the in vestigation to determine whether Brandt was sentenced through a con- spiracy. Judge Rosalski, who i'm posed the sentence, has been flayed by Attorney General Carmody and officially blamed for the miscarriage of justice in allowing Brandt to plead guilty to a charge which the evidence did net support; the police officers who framed up the valet's criminal record are to be tried, anJ Governor Dix, himself, has been ] openly criticised by the Attorney General and humiliated by the Su- preme Court.
 The formal order sustaining | 3rand&'s writ of habeas corpus will be signed on Monday by Justice Gi rard, who will then admit the pris- oner to bail.
 l The activities of those who have gained Brandt's freedom will not cease with the achievement of their primary aim.
 "This fight is to uphold che law,' said M. Towns, Brandt's counsel, to- day, land it will not stop now that it has just begun. Brandt has gain. ed his freedom, but Brandt in this fight is insignificant.
 After formal appeal from the l habeas corpus, which District At torney Whitman and Attorney Gen eral Carmody are to make the eff forts of the legal authorities will be turned to the grand jury investiga- tion

Memphis, Tenn, Feb 24.-The fate of J. J. Hughes, charged with the mur- der of Tommy Dolan lass July is now in the hands of the jury.
 Attorney General Estes finished for the State shortly after o'clock and Judge Edgington immediately charged the jury.
 If verdict is reached on first bal lot f. will be returned tonight. Other wise the jury will be held until Mon- day morning. All during General Estes address to the jury Hughes sat like stoic in his chair and listened to a denunciation of himself that the chief prosecutor was telling the jury men who are to decide his fate. General Estes characterized the de- fendant as "a rich assassin, falst- fer of truth" Only once did Hughes contradict him. Then it was with the silent shake of his head to a son and brother, who sat on either side of him. It was when Estes re- peated evidence offered by the State that Hughes had begged for his pis- tol, when officers finding Dolan's body declared that the ex-jockey was not yet dead.
 During part of the fierce denuncia- ton of the Attorney General, Hughes actually yawned in bored way, his son. a young man of twenty-four, lls- tening attentively. His face crimson ed as Estes spoke of his father In a role of bawdy house habitue. One brother of Hughes chewed gum through the hearing and smiled at different times. Another brother l1s- tened thoroughly.
 The Attorney General more .zealous than ever-if such "a thing is possible presented a picture. Athletic as ile is, vigorous to a degree of almost brutal strength in his early manhood he faced the judges of Hughes guilt or innocence of the alleged murder of Dolan, pale and intent. There was an assumption of guilt on Hughes part in every statement he made. His paleness was accentuated by dark suit and dark tie, and the Jearnestness of his expressions seemed to wake the jurors from slothfulness they had exhibited at the close of the de fense' made by counsel for Hughes. A peculisr scene planned by tht State was ruined before the court opened. Emmett Dolan, a younger brother of the deceased, was dress ed in the bloodstained shirt of Ton and secreted in an ante-room. HI was to appear at the proper moment when Estes should say. Bring 1T Dolan.'' It was the States belle that when Emmett Dolan, hatless ant coatless, wearing thet bloodstainet shirt, that his similarity in appear ance to Tommy Dolan would have startling effect upon Hughes and fiji more firmly in the minds of the jur ors his guilt. Estes intended them tt re-enact. the scene of Tommy Dolan''
 death, but Attorney Patterson, seek
 ing the ante-room during recess. saw the plan and objected to it befo:'
 court opened.
