AUTO ENTRIES
MAY SHOW
NAMES

They have adopted our suggestion
10 allow entrants in the Floral Parade
to place their names on their autos
or floats" said James Steiner, refer
ring to his little interview in this pa
per which has borne fruit as stated.
This is very we'll and ought to have
as good results as the same thing had
in the Japanese parade last year.
There is another thing / would re-
specially suggest to the committee.
Yesterday they collected money
around town for the expenses of the
show, hut said nothing about giving
the contributors Of tens and fives, or
whatever individual contributions
might be, the privilege in return of
seats upon the reviewing stand.
There will be places reserved, no
doubt, for army and navy officers
and other society favorites. Why not
offer a chair to the unobtrusive con-
tributor? Chairs are cheap, even a
few benches would not cost much,
and there is plenty Of room to pro-
vide seats for more than a favored
few to see the parade in comfort.
why not have grandstands at diff
ferent points, charging small admis-
sisn, so that anybody who chose could
have seat? This would bring a con.
siderable revenue to the management,
I have no doubt, besides greatly en-
HANGING the enjoyment of the occa-
sion, not only to. residents but to hum
dreds of visitors, only a few of whom
otherwise can witness the pageant
without the discomforts of being
damned in the. crowds along the

R0BERO, OF HONOLu LU,
SUICIDE FOR REvENGE

SAN FRANCISCO, Dee. 27.-To re
lvenge himself on an elder brother
with whom he had quarreled, Frank
Robero, "a years old, native of Ho
nolulu, committed suicide in Oakland
early yesterday morning.
A short time after the quarrel
Robero told his parents that he had
taken poison and that he wanted to
die. He then went to his bedroom.
The frantic father called in DR.. T
B. Holmes, who could find no trace OF
poison.
When questioned by the physician,
Robero confessed to him that he had
not taken any poison, but that he
merely wanted to brighten his family.
His clothes and room were thorough
ly searched, but as no poison could
be found the physician left.
The family, which lives at 2736
East Eleventh avenue, was awakened
a few hours later by the groans of
the young man and found him in great
pain.
DR.. Holmes was called in again,
but death came before his arrival.
Il am positive" said DR.. Holmes
yesterday, that the young man was
bluffing when l saw him early in the
evening.
He wanted to die. His story that
he was merely trying to scare his
folks was simply a ruse.
He waited until he thought every
body was asleep and then took the
poison, knowing that it would be too
late to save him by the time the fam
lily would be aroused by his groans.
The best proof that he had not
taken the poison when first examin-
ed him was the fact that a man could
not live more than an hour or two
after he had swallowed what this
young man took

4 Especial Star-Bulletin Correspondence
/ WASHINGTON D. c., Dec 26.-The
chances for Governor Frear and Sec,
Rotary Mott-Smith being confirmed by
the senate are daily growing less.
All indications are that they will be
permitted to go by default. Republi-
can senators are helpless in the mat
ter and unless the Democrats consent
to this being made exceptions to a
general rule already adopted, they
will fail. i
The situation has grown much
more disheartening since the recent
caucus Of Democratic senators. Con-
siderable opposition then developed
to confirming any Of President Taft's
appointments except those in the dip
lomatic service and in the army and
navy. Senators Martin, Stone, Owen.
Smith Of Georgia, and Clarke of Ar
kansas, were detailed as q COMMITTEES
to review the entire matter. The
caucus agreed to abide by any conclu-
sion the committee reached.
/ The committee met and appointed
a secretary to dig up all kinds Of
statistics on the subject. He was also
directed to prepare the precise status
of every name thus far sent in by the
President This includes the names
of Frear and Mott.Smith.. The entry
will show that the governorship has
been in allegiance for an even year.
Since the work Of inquiry has been
in progress the committee has be-
Icome more than ever opposed to the
confirmation of Mr.. Taft's selections.
Inc feeling has developed that the
number be minimized all possible.
In any event no time limit for a re-
port was imposed on the COMMITTEES
and it will take eisurely course
The committee representing the
Democratic caucus now charge the
Depublicans with having defeated 1SS
of the 400 nominations sent In by Mr..
Cleveland during the last year of his
first term. OF the nominations so
held up, 81 We're in New York, Is in
Ohio, 10 In Kansas, 10 in Massachu-
sets, 10 in Michigan, II in Pennsylva-
mia, 8 in Wisconsin, 8 in Iowa and a
in Illinois.
No effort was made by the Demo
Gratis in 1884 and 1885 to defeat the
Iu6uCEEbJT 4fC11ucAL al
thur, only IA out of 5S3 failing OF con-
firmatfon. But the Republicans were
not SO considerable when Mr.. Cleve-
land was going out after HIS first
term. At the close of his second
term in 1897, 1903 Of HIS nominations
out of $50 failed, OF which 10 were APP
pointments to the army.
Whether to block all nominations
or only oppose those In states which
will have Democratic senators IN the
next congress, is the main concern OF
the Democratic committee. But the
present disposition Is to make the
of opposition rather sweep
ing. IL,
Referring to the 1873 nominations of
President Cleveland whom the Repub- |
lieans defeated in 1889, one Democrat
lie senator said yesterday: IF Pres
ident Taft does not want more than
that held up, he had better not send

According to this plan all the troops
on Oahu will be grouped as the Ha-
wall Department. This command
must not be confused with the present
Department of Hawaii. which is a
part of the Western Division, as il
will be one of the six independent
units of the army, accountable only
to Washington, the other five being
the Eastern, Central, Western, Philip
pines and Panama departments.
The Hawaii Department, unde-
this plan, becomes a major general
Command, and each post On Oahu -
considered as a detachment directly
under the territorial commander. this
meeting all administrative require
ments. The troops of the several arms
would then be formed into brigades,
with brigadier general or a colonel
of the proper arm assigned as the in
SECTOR of each brigade. In the case
o. Oahu the mobile army here would
probably be considered as one brigade
inspection, for the present at any rate,
under command of a one-star general,
whose headquarters would be Scho-
field Barracks: The coast artillery
would be directly under the district
commander, soon to be a full colonel,
and both administrativeiy and tactic
ally under command of the command
ing general of the department.
General Macomb states in his let
ter that the Second Infantry is to so

stationed at Kamehameha and the
third at De Russy. This information
has already been received In a cable

sion, with the exception that: Kruger
instead of De Russy was designated
as the station for the 10th company
