variation is to place the shingles In

WIFE SOLD FOR HALF CROWN

From time to time cases In the po-
lice court show that there is still a
belief. especially among the English
colliers, that man may legally sell
his wife. Formerly the error was
widespread among the lower classes
in Lancashire. 1t being thought to be
a purely legal transaction II the wife
was taken to the place Of sale with a
halter round her neck. and the buyer
was given a written receipt by the
husband for the money paid. Quite
late In the nineteenth century a man
pleaded In Lancashire county court
that he was not liable for his wife's
debts. as he had sold her to another
man for half crown long before the
debts In question we're contracted.

GET THE FACTS OF THE ARMoRr ACCIDENT
progress.

The fatal accident of yesterday at the armory
nCw under construction should be thoroughly in
vestigated.
Statements are made that the steelwork de
signed to support the roGf-trusses is too light
that it will not hold up the weight of the trusses
1t is also declared that this was the cause of the
accident yesterday
The Star-Bulletin does not attempt to fix the
blame for the accident yesterday that cost a
mans life. The coroner's jury that meets this
afternoon and possibly other and higher tribu-
mails may be relied upon to do this. The coroner
has been given the names of witnesses who will
tell something of the "insde" of the armory job.
They declare that work was stopped while dis
cllssion went on as to whether the job was
s'safe,'' and that work was later allowed to pro-
ceed So
The matter of safety is vital Honolulu can
not afford to allow public hall to be built with
any doubt as to its absolute safety. Some day
the armory, filled with people, might become the
scene Of a disaster too horrible to contemplate
One pertinent question is whether in case of fire.
the trusses and pillars would hold up the roof
The situation is serious enough to call for at
tention not only by a coroner's jury but by Gov
ernor Frear. There cannot be any half-meas-
ures taken to safeguard human lives.
In Justice not only to the public, but to the
contractors and the architects, a full inyestiga-
ton Of the armory accident, together with COM
petent and impartial examination of the plans
and specifications, should be made at once and
the results given to the public In view of the
various statements made, the public will halt
judgment as to responsibility until all the facts
are in.

WASHINGTON, July 14.-'sIt will
be my policy to never abandon any
great public work under construction
unless it becames absolutely unayoid-
able. Every effort will be made to
devise some plan by which the dry
dock at Pearl Harbor can be complet-
ed as originally planned. The attempt
to accomplish this result will not be
given up except in the last extrems
Iity.'
Such was the positive announce
ment made by Secretary Daniels, Of
tie Navy Department, regarding the
controyerted drydoek problem. Be-
fore making this statement the secre-
tary carefully examined the reports
filed on the subject These were the
conclusions reached by the board of
engineers, Rear Admiral Stanford and
Civil Engineer Harris. He was not
convinced that REIMBURSEMENT of the
project would become necessary.
Some encouragement followed gen
eral conference of all concerned on
the matter. All the officials and ex-
perts involved, together with the con-
tractors, met in the office of Secre-
tary Daniels. They reviewed the yari-
GUS reports and discussed the topic
from every conceivable point of view.
The net result was deferment of a
final decision until after the sixth of
August. The secretary is engaged in
Taking an inspection of Pacific Coast
navy yards and will not resume his

1t developed at the conference that
G number OF discrepancies existed in
statements, made by those in charge
Of construction work to the various
investigators. It was held that the
reconciliation of these was of utmost
moment in arriving at a final deter
mination. All the reports were turned
ever to the contractors with a request
that they explain the various features
held to be at variance. It Is desired
that this should be done by the time

FIRST FLORIDA FLYER
Of YEAR GOES THROUGH
Stops Only Long Enough to
Take On Another Car at
Union Station.

On time, at 6:1O o'clock last evening,
the New York and Florida special of the
Atlantic Coast Line halted at the plat
form on track 23 in Union station. The
train de luxe was making it's initial trip
of the season Of 1913 from New York to
Florida
There was a stay of ten minutes in the
National Capital. This period was con-
sumed in cutting in the Washington
sleeper, the only change made in the
train during its journey to Key West.
The getaway was on the dot of $40
o'clock.
Forty-two hours from terminal to ter
minal is now the schedule time of the
trip This year the first train of the sea-
son makes it's way into Key West over
the completed road connecting the Flor
ida Keys. The construction was COM
pleted several months after the run of
the first train of 1912.
The special Is composed of eight steel
cars, newly made and supplied by the
Pullman company. Each year the train
Is brand-new on the first trip. 1t Is eX-
planned, and equipped with every novelty
of construction and convenience that has
been evolved in the preceding twelve
month.
From engine to observation platform
it is entirely of steel There are drawing
room cars, combination drawing room
and sleeping berth cars, a dining car, an
observation car and the baggage car.
Carries 100 Passengers.
There were at least 100 passengers on the
train Many of this number occupied the
Washington car The number of passen-
gers will be increased by those boarding
Charleston, Savannah. Jacksonville, St.
Augustine, Ormond, Palm Beach and
Miami.
At Key West there 10 direct ship con-
nection with Havana, Q nine-hour trip.
