BUFORD LOST IN
RACE With THE
HONOLULAN

Well known at this port although
not having visited the islands in sew
eral years, the United States army
transport Buford, for some time sta
toned on the coast as an auxiliary
troop shop, has Just completed an ex'
citing race from the Golden Gate to
Panama canal. the competitor being
the former Matson Navigation char
tered steamer Honolulan. D..
When the vessel steamed from San
Francisco for the great waterway on
the latter part Of August it was thep
predicted that the race would be "
close as we'll as interesting one. ThosS
who we're more or less familiar with
the Buford and its steaming qualities
did not fail to lay their wagers on
the success of the Honolulan. ..
The Buford was bested in the race
with the Honolulan, the American
Hawaiian steamer being locked
through the canal and berthed at
Christobal on the Atlantic side Of the
ditch on September 6, the same day as
the Buford reached Balboa, the Pa
cific terminal at the canal.
The Honolulan was then en- route
to New York on the maiden voyage
between Pacific and Atlantic coast
ports. The Buford was destined for
Galveston, Texas, from which port the
troopship was expected would be des-
patched to Europe to aid American
refugees. -e~.--..

SUPREME court
WILLPAsSUPON
ELECT|ONCLAIMS

The election suit, or mandamus pro-
ceedings brought by Attorney r. w.
Breckons fox C. H. Cooke against Ter
ritorial SECRETARY Thayer and County
Clerk Kalauokalani probably will be
taken up by the. supreme court next
Tuesday. Following a conference be-
tween the attoruey-general, County
Attorney John w. Cathcart and Clerk
Kalauokalani this afternoon it was
decided that the demurrer to Breck-
ons' petition will be filed in Circuit
Judge Robinson's court either today
or tomorrow morning.
Judge Robinson is expected to then
refer the: case to the supreme court
for instructions, meantime withholding
Judgment until the supreme court has
heard argument, reviewed the facts
and given its decision. 1t was agreed
between Attorney General Stainback
and Cathcart today that the former
will appear in supreme court on be-
half of the territorial secretary and
the latter for the county clerk. This
argument is expected to be presented
Tuesday, and a ruling by the supreme
court on the merits of the case is an
ticipated at an early date, possibly be-
fore the end of next week.
Breckons, who is Vice-chairman of
the Republican party, said today he
thought the supreme court decision
would definitely fix the status of all
four Republican candidates in the
Fourth district who are claiming their
election at the recent primary. In
the case Of A. Garcia and Peruvia J..
Goodness, Republican candidates on
Maui, he thinks these will then need
only to make proper application to
Secretary Thayer and the Slerk of
that county to obtain an official count
of the ballots and find whether in
mater of fact they have ben elected.
