HIL0, July 17.-County Attorney
w. H. Beers, Deputy Sheriff Martin
and DR.. Sexton are puzzled by the
mystery surrounding the sudden
death last Monday morning of David
Hawai-, young Hawaiian residing on
one of the Pepeekeo homesteads DR..
Sexton's test of the dead mans stom-
ach has indicated the presence of ar
senic and murder is suspected. One
of Kawais companions at the time
he took i'll Sunday afternoon is held
in detinue by the police.
At the same time no motive has
been discovered for a possible mur-
der and for this reason there is doubt
whether the stomach shall be sent
to Honolulu this morning to W. A..
Hanson, the federal and territorial
chemist, for a more thorough test
than the local physicians are equipped
to make. ....
Hawai-, who has been a laborer in
the employ of A. A. Wilson, the road
contractor on the Pepeekeo home
steads, became i'll while on his way
to Onomea Sunday afternoon, and
was assisted by his friend, Bailey,
to his home His condition rapidly
grew worse and he was fastened to
the hospital, where DIR. Troutman ad.
ministered medicine intended to coun-
teract stomach poisons. These ef-
forts proved futile and the patient
expired the following morning.
II has been learned that Hawai-
had been eating some canned stuff
Saturday evening and had consumed
a quantity of fruit, and it is said he
had been drinking liquor Sunday
morning. There seems to be posi-
bility that death may have been due
to ptomaine poisoning, but the test
by DIR. Sexton Tuesday apparently
contradicts that theory. A coroner's S

With crew of four men before the
mast, the Tampa was brought on the
harbor yesterday afternoon with
decks awash. Day and night the sea.
men devoted their entire energies to
keeping afloat the craft, laden with
$50 tens of phosphate rock from Ma.

of the schooner in the trough of the
seas a number of gaping seams we're
opened through which quantities of
water found its way. +.

MARSHALL LOSES
CONTRACT SAYS
RUMOR in HILO
Lord Young Engineering Com
pany to Complete Break
water Job Is "Dope"

Especial StarBulletin Correspondence
HILO, July T.-Though no definite
news concerning the Hilo breakwater
negotiations could be obtained this
week another interesting, though un
confirmed story is making the rounds
to the effect that George Marshall,
the contractor, has forfeited his con.
tract, the surety company it is said
having failed to live up to its bargain
with Marshall, and that the Lord
Young Engineering Company is now
destined to take hold of the project
Marshall, although on this island,
has not been in town the last two or
three days and could not be found
yesterday to verify or deny the ru.
NOR. 1t is reported, however, that he
is inspecting rock quarries along the
Hamakua coast and at Waipio, and
this would seem sufficient contradic
ton to the report that he is out OF
the proposition. 49,.
He stated on his return from Homo
lulu last Sunday that work positive
ly would begin within two weeks
time, the activity merely awaiting
word from Honolulu that certain
pending negotiations had terminated
satisfactorily. He was not ready al
that time to say where the rock was
to be obtained
Included in the story of forfeited
contracts is a report that the Lord
Young Engineering Company virtual
ly holds the key to the quarry ques.
ton, having large rights to the Ka,
poho sites which, 1t is said, neither
Marshall nor the surety company has
as yet been able to obtain.
