Honorable John B. RENTERS,
British consul stationed here has re-
ceiyed work that Former Ambassador
James Bryce intends to spend only a
few hours at Honolulu on his way to
the Orient from the United States He
expects to have little more than time
to pay his respects to the local dig
nitaries while the steamship Mongolia
is in port.
Bryce will arrive here next Friday
and intends departing the same day.
II had been hoped to have him remain
on the islands for several days at
least,s possibly inducing him to visit
the volcano and inspect some of the
local scenes and industries.
Territorial Secretary Mott Smith,
on whom the responsibility of arrange
ments for distinguished guests usually
falls, leaves tomorrow for ten days
vacation on Molokai. In his absence
that duty reyerts to the governor.
Definite plans for Bryce's reception
and entertainment cannot be perfect
ed until the latter part of the week,
when the governor probably will get
into direct communication with him
by wireless.

this morning that he was insane when

NEW BOARD IS
NAMED DINPEARL
HARBOR PROBE

In order that the fullest investiga-
tion may be made as to the fitness
of the Pearl Harbor site for a perma-
nent drydock, a board of navy civil en-
gineers has been appointed to make
further investigations and tests of en-
gineering conditions. In last Satur-
that such board wou>d probably be

that such board, would probably be
appointed, and Saturday afternoon a
cable from the navy department for
Conyening the board reached Rear Ad-
miral Moore.
Civil Engineers E. R.. Gayler, F. R.

as members of the board, in orders is

coming here several weeks ago with
Rear Admiral Homer Sanford to as
sist in the preliminary examination of
the drydock disaster, that came to an
end with the departure of the bureau
chief for the Coast last Saturday.
The findings of this board will be of
the greatest Importance to the govern
ment, the contractors, and to Hawaii
as whole. It's report will be the fl
nal word as to whether or not the dry
dock contractors were responsible for
the disaster of February II, or wheth-
er the rising of the bottom was due to
the natural unfitness of the site If
the former is the case, and it is deter
mined to build the dock according to
the original specifications. then the
financial loss is sure to fall much
more heavily on the contractors than
If some other method of construction,
or the building of a floating drydock,
is determined on. To date there has
been nothing in the Investigations to
show that the contractors are not re-
spensible for the accident.
The new board of investigation will
convene Thursday 1t has the power
to make such further physical tests as
are deemed necessary, to work in con-
junction with the contractors, and to-
examine any witnesses it may see fit

HAWAII MAY BE
GIVEN HEARING
ON SUGAR TARIFF
Cable AdyiCes Indicate Cues.
ton Is To Be Reopened Be-
fore Senate Sub Com.

According to cable received here
Saturday, the senate committee on fl.
nance, which has in charge the sugar
tariff bill-thes whole tariff bill, in
fact is about call a special hear
ing, before subcommittee, with
Senator Williams as chairman
This would mean somewhat un-
expected reopening of the subject, in
dicating that the claims of Hawaii
and other sugar communities are like
~ to get more of hearing than was
expected II is, however, generally
in line with cable received from
Chairman Shafroth of the senate com.
mittee on territories, in which he
stated that the committee would not
grant hearing. but invited briefs
and arguments. According to one
view, the later cable may mean that
the finance committee has decided, in
view of the Numerous appeals, to
grant some sort OF hearing, and has
therefore referred the matter to a
subcommittee.
Nothing has been heard from Car.
ter on the subject of a hearing. How.
ever, the tip that there is to, be a
rehearing soon, with John Sharp Will
liams Of the subcommittee in charge,
is thought to be a good one If it is,
il breaks up the reported Democratic
program of rushing through stariff
reform bill without taking up separ-
ate schedules.
If sugar has separate hearing, 50
NAV other items and the decision
may be very long way off.

BORGES' RELEASE
OPPOSED BY
THAYER

Although twenty-nine members OF
the recent legislature signed the pc
tition to the governor asking that the
life sentence of George Borges be
mitigated, the relief prayed for is not
anticipated-at least for some time to
come. The petition contains the sig
natures of almost the entire member
ship of the house of representatives,
including that of the speaker, and
had the names of several senators,
while the man who circulated it was
Representative William ]. Sheldon, of
Kauai
Borges was convicted March s, this
year, of statutory offense against
his five-year-old niece, and given the
life penalty by Circuit Judge Whitney.
He is about seventeen years old at
the present time.
The petition to the governor. after
reciting the imagined horrors of a
long life in prison, concludes:
I'VE are informed that his convic-
ton was based on Borge's confession,
which confession. we are told, is not
the tduth being made with the hopes
of being discharged" The statement
by Judge Whitney, included in the
papers submitted to the governor,
says Borges was ably defended, hav-
ing two attorneys, ard indicates that
he made powerful fight for his free
dom.
The matter has been submitted to
Attorney General Thayer, who said
this morning he probably will recon-
mend that the petition be not grant
ed, for the present at least, on the
ground that his time III prison has

y saaas sas#s

Attorney f. NJ Wat5on-s appoint.
ment as governor of Hawaii is conf.
IDENTIFY expected by his close friends
and supporters here. and they expect
furthermore that President Wilson
and Secretary Lane will make move
within 4S hours.
Two facts combined today in the
fostering of this feeling. First. the
news came out that Secretary Lane
had cabled to at least one prominent
Democrat in connection with the gov
ernorship situation. Just what Lane s
cablegram said was not given out for
publication, the contents OF the mes
sage being regarded as confidential.
hut il evidently convinced the leading
Bourbons that President Wilson and
Secretary Lane are thinking OF nam
ing new governor within few
hours. 1t is certain that the message
indicated an early change as being
now the intention OF the secretary OF
the interior.
Though it could not be definitely as
oertained, 1t is believed that other mes
sages from Washington have come
within the last two days asking as TO
whether or not the national admins
tration should change governors at
this time Governor Frear. as has
been published, considers that in some
respects 1t would be wise to make mo
change in Office until after the gov
erhor's annual report is out of the
way. Governor Frear does not wish
q reappointment and is ready to relin-
quish the reins when hfs successor is
appointed and qualified, but manv of
those I'm touch with Hawaii's officiaI
affairs have urged that no chanreNbe
made in the executive Office until Au-
gust or September, when the boards
may be swept clean for new admin
istration That secretary Wilsop con-
slders an immediate change is new
well assured.
The other piece OF news that
cheered up the Watson people is that
Ed" as they call him, has arrived IN
Washington feeling we'll and has
emerged from his conference with
Lane much encouraged over the cut
look. AS shown by the cablegram to-
Gay from the Star-Rulletin,s Washing
ton correspondent, people in Washing
ton seem to think that Watson is in
fairly good health, and that he is RAD
idly recovering from the effects of the
paralytic stroke that visited him in
Washington and from which he was
suffering severely when he left the
national caital His cablegram TO
Senator Metzger last Saturday. that
he was feeling bully" and the fur
ther. news today. has encouraged his
friends immensely.
On the other hand, neither the Nc
Candless nor the Waller supporters
have lost heart In fact, the McCand-
less hackers today were smiling over
the receipt of some news from Wash
ington which was said to be of the
most optimistic sort.
As the candidacy of Senator Metz
ger is conditional upon the rejection
az Watson, and as Judge Wilder's can
didacy is unconfirmed and indefinite,
the local situation will probably be
unchanged until Watson is either ap-
pointed or turned down.
