CAPTAIN LIONEL HALsEY
= u
Persistent Rumor in British Colony Meets With
Favorable Consideration of Many Friends
of Master of New Zealand
CAPTAIN LIONEL HALsEY.

A rumor has persistently repeated
itself. and convinced many of the
members of the British colony of its
Lionel Halsey of the battle-Cruiser
New Zealand will follow shortly on
his return to England from his globe
girdiing tour. Whether the report is
true cannot be definitely said, but a
of the officers aboard the ves-
sci declare that they would not be sur.
prised if the captain was given title.
Prince Henry of BattenDurgh, sub
lieutenant on board the war craft,
said that he did not know whether the
rumor was true, but he incidentally
pointed out that it was not unprece-
dented for a title to be given one in
the service of His Majesty. The cap
tain of course says he does not eX-
pect such an honor, and feels, he says,
to be captain of the New Zealand is
uuite a sufficient honor in itself.
Il have heard nothing of the propo-
iition to create baronetcy for me, >

Turing his reception to members OF
he Country, Commercial University
nd Pacific clubs, 'Of course | do
hot expect such an honor feel that
it is a great honor to be, captain of

look forward to greater honor being

MORE SIGNAL
TROOPS WILL
Be Sent HERE
Platoon of Telegraph Company
and One Officer Expected on
the August Transport

That military strategists see the
need for specializing in signal work,
and in keeping all points on the island
in touch with the various field head
quarters that would be established
should il ever be necessary for the
garrison of Oahu to take the field, Is
evidenced by the announcement that
another detachment of the signal
corps is to arriye next month. One
platoon of a telegraph company of the
signal corps, in command Of 1st Lieu
tenant F. f. Black. has been ordered
to Hawaii. and will leave San Fran
cisco on the August transport.
Field Company E, of the signal
corps, which arrived here some
months ago, has been on the hike for
some days past, testing signal condi-
tions in various parts of the island,
and making experiments as to the eff.
fectiyeness of the field wireless sets.
Conditions on Oahu for land wire
less work are most unusual" said
Captain Gibbs, commanding the sig
nal company, on his return from the
field yesterday. The distances that
we can work the wireless varies more
than one would think, on account OF
typographical conditions. Some per-
manent lines are needed, and the men
who are coming on the next transport
are expert telegraphers, and will
handle this part of the work. Lieut.
enant Black is an infantryman, who
has recently graduated from the sig
nal school at Fort Leavenworth."
The detachment to arrive by the
next boat will go into camp at Shafter
with Company e, and will be attached
to Captain Gibbs command.

BRITONS ARE !.
DDU"oHV0 aD~
PEEVED At
Committee
Say They Contributed Freely
but Were Ignored While the
New Zealand Was Here

British residents of Honolulu are
indignant over the manner in which
they we're treated by the committee
in charge of the entertainment of the
officers and crew of the battle-cruiser
New Zealand. Sharp criticisms of the
committee are beng made today, with
the assertions that English residents
here. who gave literally toward the
entertainment fund, were absolutely
ignored by the committee, and that
no arrangements were made for them
to meet the officers of the ship.
They declare that they gave their
money for the fund freely, certain
that a reception, either on board the
ship or at one of the clubs. would be
given the officers at which British
residents would be invited; but that
as the program developed they saw no
provision or consideration had been
made for them, and that they were
thrown with the general public so far
as meeting the officers is concerned.
Bitterness is also shown toward the
reception given by Consul Renters,
which they say was exclusive and in
vitational and to which only few of
the British residents were invited.
James A. Rath, head worker at the
Palama Settlement, is particularly an
gered at the consul's action in making
the reception invitational, not includ-
ing in the invited guests the names
of the persons who had given their
money for the entertainment of the
officers. He declared this morning
that he had assumed, from the first
time he had heard that Mr. Renters
planned to give reception until it

VANCOUVER
God Speed Wished British Bat
e-Cruiser by Host of lo-
cal Friends

Goodby, New Zealand, and bon voy-
aged A crowd of Honolulans waved
farewell to the giant battle-cruiser
this morning, five minutes after 9
o'clock, as she loosened her lines and
slipped out into the harbor. Now the
vessel has Strengthened her course for
Vancouver, where she is due July 25.
The week of festivities for the officers
and crew is over, though the happy
memory of them still lives in the
minds of both the guests and hosts.
Hurried good-byes were extended at
the Alakea wharf and few short calls
made upon the captain and officers,
before the order was given for the
New Zealand to cast off. Her sailing
hour was not too early for many of
the new friends pf the officers to
make their way I'd the dock to say
and wave a farewell. And through
all the shouting, the promises to re-
turn again, Kappelmeister Berger's
hand played, and as the ship-of-war
slipped out into the sea the notes of
Aloha De followed It.
At five minutes Ito o'clock, the
order was given for the New Zealand

giant ship obeyed the order and
moved away from the Eva side of the
Alakea wharf, where she has been
locked during her visit here. The
band on board played as the vessel
drew out into the harbor and swung
gracefully into her course. The flag
of Great Britain flew from her stern.
Only the playing OF the bands, the
shouted bon voyages, and the occa-
sional sharp order Of an officer could
be heard, as salutes were not ex-
changed.
