His Clothes Which Are Rec
ognized Leading to Arrest.

The two negro burglars who en-
tered the residence of VIII Kessler

wearing his clothes and asked him
tC do some work on his place While
the negro was at work, Mr.. Kessler
notified the sheriff's office and then
covered the negro with a gun, After
Il gruelling the negro gave the name
OF his partner and shortly after he
was also arrested.
Everything stolen from the Kess-
Ter residence was recovered except
a necklace and three ra2ors.
The negroes when asked why
they had entered the place, said they
were in need and thought 1t best TO
enter a house out of the city as
they thought they could get away
easier. They appeared to be profess
sional crooks; one had bunch of
skeleton keys.

they have occupied the territory
east of the forest Champenoux, Ger

Apparently, the Germans who
sent the best of their army further
west to take part in the advance on
Paris have found the mountains of
Moselle and the Vosges where the
French were in strong positions too
hard nut to crack.
The French official report refers
to the retirement as general re-
treat, and from the rate at which
the Germans are travelling, it would
seem to be such, although military
may make a stand or counter
offensive when the reinforcements
which have been sent from Belgium
reach them.
1t is believed that the position of
the German army which is falling
back on Reyigny is almost certain
to put up hard fight in the forest
of Argonne.
The Belgian army has become
very active again and according to
official reports received tonight is

The inquiry was not formal one
such as President Wilson's original

willingness to talk peace was based
on fact.

is contemplating the completion of
Pier Is A, situated along Queen street
at the mouth of Nuuanu stream and,
in connection with this project, pro-
poses to join the o. R. and L. and
Rapid Transit tracks with the wharf
in order that both companies may ope-
rate their cars on the wharf. A plan
of the project has been submitted to
the board of supervisors showing the
general scheme of the improvements
and also the amount of work which is
to be done on Queen street.
CAS- the care and maintenance of all
streets are under your direction, we
offer this matter to you for any
criticism or comments which you may
desire to make" reads a portion of the
letter submitted to the supervisors.
The Rapid Transit and the O. R. and

posed project and have been asked to

board has addressed a communication

before it the matter of providing at
Pearl Harbor emergency wharfage for
ships of belligerent nations coming to
the islands. The war department,
however, already has notified Rear
Admiral c. B. T. Moore that such a
project is inadvisable at this time.

were brought into the meeting as ex-
hibits to show the poor grade of metal
which has been used to sheath the I'M

pairing this sheathing was commenced
some time ago, and Chairman Forbes
has suggested that, instead of trying
to patch MP the present copper, an ex-

order that a thorough job might be
made of resheathing the piles.

new friends and their work here during
