inence as a result of paper which
he read before the California Fruit
Growers Association, in which he
charged that the campaign against the
Mediterranean fruit fly as conducted
here is a farce and declared that In
spector Weinland, representing the
California State board of horticulture
here, was negligent and not in sympa-
thy with his employers. SEVERN urged
that quarantine be placed against
Hawaiian bananas and pineapples, in
timating that he had discovered that
these fruits would carry the fruit fly
to California.
Severin's paper failed to have its
desired effect with the Californians, but
it is believed that the position he as
sumed, without apparent grounds,
against the interests of the Territory
had much to do with his removal.

RAPID TRANSIT

A cablegram has been received from
Washington asking for further details
of information relative to the proposed

pany's system to Pearl Harbor naval

The company was in position at the
moment to glv,. thoroughly satisfac-

concern was implied in the inquiry

1t is believed by the Rapid Transit
people that tac request for informa-
ton indicates that the progress OF the
bill, to promote which President L.
Tenney Peck has been in Washington
for some weeks is being expedited.
With regard to the report published
here that the War Department was
stipulating that the Government
should own the part of the line to pass
through the Fort Shafter reservation,

that nothing Of the kind has beev.

SH|NG[E AS
DELEGATE.
IS PLAN
Movement to Reach Compro-
mise, with Kuhio for
Mayor

Robert w. Shingle for delegate tC
Congress, and Prince Kuhio fol
mayor of Honolulu is program thai
prominent Republicans of the city arc
working towards.
The Star-Bulletin learned today
definitely what has been rumored fol-
some days, that a concerted effort is
being made. to urge upon Shingle that
he become a candidate for delegate
The movement is strong. 1t has EN-
listed very prominent Republicans
who we're lined UP with the Frear
forces when Shingle was counted a
Kuhio supporter at the territorial con
yentioh last April.
Single no longer to be counted
as an out-and-out Kuhio supporter, II
! is thug evident, and the fact is taken
for granted that ne has found himself
unable to follow Kuhio in the dele
gates later attacks on the Territorial
administration.
Shingles answer to. the urgent re-
quest that he run for delegate has
not been given, it was said this morn
ing. He will have that answer ready
within the next two or three days, ii
is believed, and some of his friends
doubt II he will wish to run.
Together with this movement, there
is an attempt going forward to induce
the delegate to ccme to some com.
promise In his fight and to run for
Mayor.
Kuhio's strength did not show itself
in the Republican precinct club nomi.
nations last night.
That there will be interesting de.
velopfnents shortly is foregone con.
clusion. If the Shingle-for-delegate
plans prove successful, the Republi.
can situation will clarity itself rap
