Excuse RidicuIed.
Pure Hypocrisy.

The action now taken is pure hypo-
crisy Manliness such as I would have
expected from the Christian moral
gentleman occupying the White House
would have required him to ask the
district attorney to withdraw his resig-
nation and try these cases, he being
most familiar with them. They have
accepted the resignation of the district
attorney and dismissed the officers who
worked up these cases.
L suspect the elder Caminetti and
possibly the junior Caminetti may be
quite willing to have the case speedily
tried. when the few men who were
familiar with the case and who have
worked it up. are fired out of the SER
vice. before anyone else has time to
learn all the circumstances of the
case
Mr.. Mann charged that the new
cabinet officers seemed to have an ex-
aggerated Importance in their own eyes
and an exaggerated idea of the in
f1uence of each.

What Sort of Department?

A former member of this house, Sec
rotary Wilson, he said. telephones to
the attorney generals office and at
torney general says that without stop
ping to go through the files and so re-
fresh my recollection concerning any
particular circumstances of the case, 1
sent the following telegram to the dis
trlct attorney. ordering him to post
pone the case What sort of a DEPART
ment of Justice is it? What kind of an
attorney general is it?'' he asked mo
doubt the attorney general is a great
lawyer and a great man. But if the
Democratic administration intends to
proceed upon the theory that when a
ca binet officer telephones the attor-
ney general or when some wealthy
defendant. as happened in the Western
Fuel case. walks into the office of the
attorney general and asks to have a
case postponed, it is DONE there will
not be many Democratic administra-

BLAZE KEEPS
FIREMEN ON
THE QUI WVE

Protected by no frewall, with but
fimsy wooden sides on adjoining
structures, anG surrounded by many
blocks Of frame tenement houses, the
fire department, under. the direction
of, Chief Engineer .Thurston, engaged
in a battle royal at o'clock last
night, when a fire visited the two
story building situated on the Eva
side Of Maunakea street between Pa
uahi and Beretania streets, owned by
Chun Kim SUIT, and occupied by
Japanese named Arita, who conducted
q, bath house in the lower portion Of
the structure -~ -.
The Chinese carried no insurance
on the building. 1t was stated this
morning that the furniture and fix
lures belonging to the Japanese were
insured for $500. - ~- .'.
The fire, which endangered a dozen
blocks in the most congested and
densely populated district of Homo
lulu, is attributed to the overturning
Of lighted kerosene lamp In the
apartment Of Chun Kit Sem At an
Investigation conducted today, 1t was
learned that the Chinese, in entering
the room, grabbed the lamp and
threw it out of a~rear window, where
1t fell to wooden veranda below, the
oil scattering over the floor, which
was, soon enveloped in flames.
r Inc burning building was located
in the center OF large Oriental pop
ulation. Thousands of people, at
tracted by the glare reflected in the
sky, gathered and packed the streets.
making the labors of they police de-
partment extremely difficult. Sheriff
Jarrett, Deputy Rose and Captain
Iaukea, took complete charge of the
situation. They immediately stretched.
force of uniformed and plainclothes
men at several vantage points. The
crowd was kept within the limits un-
til the fire was declared under control
and the department left the scene
shortly after 5 o'clock. 3.
The building is one OF hundreds,
erected at q time before the passage
of the amended building and plumbing
laws, which now insure better pro-
lection against destruction by FIRE,
{ def. Thurston stated today that the
owners Of the building had put up a
strong opposition to following the re-
quirements, as set forth in the new
regulations. The structure is charac-
terized by the officers as @ firetrap,s
surrounded upon all sides by, tene-
ments, hotels, theaters and stores Of
similar construction
j, The loss of life as wei as property,
had the fire gotten beyond the con-
troll Of the department, 1t Is stated,
would have been appalling.
= The damage to the adjoining build
ings through fire and water is placed
at nominal figure A Japanese child
is credited with having lad q narrow
escape in fleeing from the burning
bath house.. After q search Of the.
building had been made by the po-
lice and volunteers, the little girl, UNI
harmed but thoroughly frightened,
was found near the edge of the crowd,
who claimed that she had left her
father In the building. The man
later appeared on the scene to claim
his daughter. sa q
Much credit is bestowed upon Chief
Thurston and members OF his depart
ment for the manner in which they
pros eded to fight the fire and hold
1t within the narrow and dangerous
confines of the tenement district
