new VOLUNTEER
CORPS APPROVED
BY DEPARTMENT

The military strength OF Oahu is to
be increased by the addition of vol
unteer motorcycle corps Probably
these ''Mercuries' by the, grace OF
gasoline will be attached to the signal
corps of the national guard. but the
plan is so well thought of by regular
army higher-upS that it is being faith
cred by the department commander.
who will probably secure the neces-
sary authorization for its organization
from the war department.
Credit for the inception of the mo-
torcycle corps belongs to L. VI. Erie
sell. OF the department OF public
works, who is himself one OF the
keenest motorcycle enthusiasts in. the
territory. Friesell, after taking the
matter uD with Col Campbell. depart
ment adjutant. went among his friends
and fellow cyclists, and had no trou-
bic in securing twenty picked men.
who were anxious To enter the new
service.
The principal difficulty in the way
of giving the motorcycle corps a mill
tary standing is that the regulations
do not permit the formation of new
company of the national guard with
less than fifty-six men. This difficult
ty, it is believed, will be overcome by
attaching the motorcyclists to some
existing organization. II Is the inten-
ton to drill the members Of the corps
in signal work. so that they will be
able to establish chains of signal sta
tons in fast time.
"A corps of this sort would be of
great value to the regular army when
the troops are called into the field for
maneuvers, or in the. event of the ar
my being called out for more Sc
rious purpose said Col. Campbell
this morning. Motorcycles can now
carry two men anywhere. and IL the
riders were well trained signalmen,
with flag and Photograph. they could
be used to great advantage. As vol
unteer organization the motorcycle
corps should be attached to the ma
tional guard, to have the proper Mill
tary standing, and probably the mat
ter will be helped along in every pos
sible way by this office"

WHALEY CLAIMS
SHOOTING Was
ACCIDENTAL

That his wife was killed by the ac-
cidental discharge of a revolver which
he was cleaning at the time she en-
tered the switchroom of the telephone
company, was the statement made to
Chief of Police McDuffie last night by
F. L. Whaley, who is confined at the
police station charged with having
shot his wife on the evening of May
Bird.
Whaley talked with the chief for
some time last night, and the story
which he told is looked upon by the
police as being plausible. He said
that at the time his wife entered the
room he was seated at his desk en-
gagged in cleaning and loading the re-
volver which is kept in the switch
room. The two commenced to quar-
rel and then Mrs. Whaley jumped to-
ward her husband and tried to wrest
the gun from his grasp, he says. Dur
ing the seuffle which followed, he
added, the gun was discharged. the
bullet striking the woman and killing
her instantly.
The coroner's jury which was form
ed this morning is still in session, no
decision having been reached up to
$3.50 o'clock.

In FAVOR Of
GRONNA BILL

The consideration of a number OF
applications for new liquor licenses
which We're presented at the last
meeting of the board Of liquor license
commissioners, will comprise the main
business Of the Anti-Saloon League,
which meets Thursday afternoon.
Secretary Patty, of the league, stated
this morning that plans would be
drawn up at the meeting to more fully
organize the local forces which are
working for the passage of the Gronna
bill, which is now before congress,
and which provides for prohibition for
Hawaii That the bill has better
chance of going through now than it
has ever had before is the opinion OF
the members of the league. and they
have come to the conclusion that
definite action on their part is reces-
sary in order to set forth the believed
good results which would come with
the passage of such BILL 1t is now
only a matter of time, they claim. and
within year they expect that the
bill will have been passed.
IF our slogan, Prohibition for Ha-
waii in 1915. has any effect. said
Patty this morning. we will then adopt
the slogan, National prohibition in
1920"
