FOUR THOUSAND ARM0R- PIERCING SHELLS
WILL Be SHIPPED TO HAWAIIAN ISLANDS

naval dock during the day, shows that
the ship has Palmyra in view as an
objective point in the near future. If
the West Virginia is not going to get
out alone on the trip, it is believed that
the other cruisers will take in Palmyra
during their ten day cruise which starts
tomorrow.
In naval circles yesterday, toward
the close of the day, the belief gained
ground that as the West Virginia did
not put to sea after all the hurried
preparations which had been made the
night before, it might be that she was
destined for some other important
mission and would be held here while
the other ships went out on the cruise.
That either the West Virginia alone,
or the other ships, are going to Pal
myra seems to be settled opinion
among those who are nearest to head
quarters.
Ships do not coal at night and take
on extra provisions unless the com
mander has or expects to have hurry
sailing orders in short time, it is
pointed out, and that the West Vir-
ginia did not 60 out yesterday after
all the preparations were made argues
that the expected definite orders were
not received at the appointed time.

be grown on the land, that the agree
ment was to be void whenever Hen
derson paid the plantation all he owed
it and that the plantation could enter
upon the land and cultivate it on its
own hook if Henderson defaulted in
payments, crediting Henderson with
profits therefrom. These agreements,
says the judge, did not give the plan
tation power to GUST Henderson, but
merely gave the plantation the right to
enter upon the land for the purpose of
protecting its mortgage on the crop.
The plantation if exercising this right
of foreclosure would only take hold of
the land and use it, but in doing this
under the agreements, says the deci-
sion, the plantation "acts wholly for
the freeholder.'
Taking this view of the agreement
Judge Parsons says that there was no
assignment or subletting of the land by
Henderson, and the fiat agreement
orally made, whereby the plantation
was simply to pay Henderson So per
acre per year, regardless of what the
land produced, "was clearly the pur-
chase price of cane and not the rental
of land."
