REORGANIZATION
OF MOBILE
ARMY
Details of Plan Which Makes
Hawaii Independent Admins
trative Department Received
with Interest by Army Off,
GERS Here - Hawa ian Brig
ade Strongest in Service

Coast newspapers arriving here
this morning bring full details OF the
great army reorganization plan, un-
der which Hawaii becomes an inde-
pendent administrative department
Heretofore only the general outline OF
tie plan, and the fact that Genera!
Funston was to command the depart
ment, and General MacOmb the First
Hawaiian brigade, has been known
here, and local army officers are
much Interested in the assignment OF
the mainland and Philippine com
mardS.
The organization Of three main
coast artillery districts, separate from
the mobile army, each to be com
manded by d general officer if avail
able, is especially agreeable to Off
GERS of the corps here.
The news dispatches do not state
whether the cavalry and field artil-
lcry regiments on Oahu are - be bri
gaded with the three infantry TcEi
ments but the suppOsitiOn is that suCl
is the case, and that General MaCOml

Hawaii PoLoists
Defeat Coronado
II Goals To 3

The Hawaiian polo team won it's
first big match in California, de-
feating the fast Coronado four by the
iop sided score of II to 3 yesterday
afternoon.
This good news is carried in a prl-
vate cable message to J. B. Castle
from his son Harold castle, the crack
No. . of the island aggregation.
While the success of the team in its
initial California appearance does not
mean that it will be able to repeat
with all the other Coast teams, it does
indicate that the players have struck
something like form right away, and
that the sea voyage, and the fac
that they were riding on unfamiliar
fields, did not put them off their game
to any serious extent. 1t also shows
that the ponies are in good shape.
The Coronado team is by no means
the StrOngC st polo combination that
the local players will be up against in
the course CT their mainland cam
paign, but neither is it a weak team.
Major Ross and Captain Besley, who
nave played in California for several
seasons, and W. B. Huston, of Den
YER, are playing for Coronado, accord
ing to the latest mainland papers.
Probably X G.. SnOWden was the
fourth man to go against Hawaii, as it
is to be supposed that Coronado put
it's strongest team in the field against
the hard-ridIng islanders. The match
yesterday was probably one of the
series for the Shrevo cup, which was
to have commenced February 10Th. In
any event, the news of sweeping
victory the very first time ont, will be
received with glcc by local polo fans,
and the cft-behinds Of the Oahu Polo
Club
