FREAR AWAITS
WORD FROM KNOX
Plans for Reception Delayed
Until Message Can Be Re-
ceiyed from Cruiser

Preparations tor the entertainment
OF Secretary Knox during his visit to
Honolulu we're delayed to some ex.
tent today by the fact that the U. S.
S. Maryland, on which he is travel
Ing toward this port, carries a wire.
less outfit that will carry over a
radius of only about 400 miles.
Although Governor Frear sent a
wireless to the vessel yesterday
evening, asking for information con-
corning the Secretary's arrival and
length of his visit, no reply was re.
oeived up TO late hour this after
noon. The Maryland could receive
the message, but could not answer
IL because 1t is more than 400 miles
away. IL is thought that the ship
will approach within sufficient ra-
dius for Communication some time to-
night.
Secretary E. A. MottSmith, who
returned with his family this morn
ing from q six weeks vacation on the
island of Hawaii, was in consulta
ton with the Governor this morning
on the plans for the Knox reception,
and held further conferences this
afternoon with others interested in
The event. Definite plans cannot be
outlined until the length of the Off
Gals stay in the city is learned.

CATTLE DYING
FROM DROUGHT

John D. Paris, who arrived from
kona this morning, states that Puu-
waawaa, in the north end of the dis
trict, is lawfully dry" The middle
section he says is getting more rains
for a breadth of about two miles along
the government road. Drought still
prevails in the Kula and the mountain
sections. Kau district is exceptional
ly dry.
A fellow passenger of Mr.. Paris
from Maui told him of still worse
state of affairs on that island. Cattle
are dying on Haleakala Ranch and in
the Kula farming region for lack Of
water.
There is an unusually heavy crop
of coffee in Kona," Mr.. Paris says,
but it remains to be seen how much

Judge Cooper in his explorations
ascended to an elevation of 10000
feet. He met a band of Shipman's s
cowboys driving a herd in the direc-

the report that Mauna Loa crater,
MokuaweOweO, was in eruption. From
undOubted evidence ne is able to deny
the report, as those who were in
sight of the summit at the time re-
TOrted, saw nothing but snow there.

ed with the carrying on of the Kuhio
campaign, advisers of the latter, ill
cluding Lorrin Andrews, and Breck-

Supervisor Harry Murry to seclud-

last night and informed him that the
support of this faction was withdrawn
from whatever supervisorial ambi

charged him to break it gently to his

Murray indited a statement in which
he withdrew from any attempt to win

Judge Cooper Inspects 170,'

Talks Business

Judge Henry E. Cooper appears to
be in fair way of becoming the
owner of the famous Kahuku Ranch,
in Kau district, Hawaii. He returned
from that great estate of 10000
acres this morning, and, when asked
it he had read the report of his mis-,
sion under tOday's date line, replied:
II inspected the ranch in company
with the owner, Mr.. McCOmber, go
ing TO parts of it where he had never

as the title to the proper is concern

been made with all the conflicting in.

the Oahu railway, a distance OF four
and one-half miles.
Since the initiation Of that scheme
a suggestion has been made that the
line should be extended down TO Fort
Kamehameha, guarding the entrance
to Pearl Harbor, about two and one
half miles farther, and there connect
with the United States government
tracks. Just how or when this Will
be done, IL at all, depends upon what
ARRANGEMENTS can be made with the
Bishop Estate for right OF way, also
upon the decision of the War depart
ment relative to such extension.
Should the extension not be adopt
ed, the company will make the con-
nection needed, a few hundred Ieeb
between PuuIoa station and the ma
val station reseryation.
Mr.. Peck has not written Enytnlng
to throw light on the subject, ana tne
local authorities of the Army are as
much in the dark as the company -.
So. until Mr. PePck returns, nothing
can be decided.
In the meantime the company has
the material on hand for construction
as far as PuuIoa. Power for the line
when built will be supplied from the
power house of the Rapid Transit Co.
in town, which, with booster pur-
chased by Manager BaIlentyne on the
mainland two years ago and already
installed, has ample reserve o. power
for the additional load.

Five Coaches Burned.

The excursion train was returning
from here to South Mississippi points
carrying ten coaches drawn by two
engines. The excursion train was
stopped when one OF the engines
broke down. The brake failed to signal
an oncoming freight train which
ploughed its way into the rear coach
of the standing passenger train. Five
rear coaches were burned, some of
the bodies being consumed, SO that
the exact death list is not known, but
1t is estimated at about thirty. Most
of those killed were negroes, while
about one-half of the injured were
white.
