believe SPY blew
UP ENGLISH ship
English, However, Doubt
That Princess Irene Hor-
ror Was Caused by
Germans
800 KILLED
IN THE DISASTER
BY The United Press.


SHEERNESS. Eng, May 2S.-Per-
sistent rumors that a German spy
touched off the gigantic explosion
that sent the steamer Princess Irene
hurtling skyward with loss of more
than 300 lives caused the British Ad-
miralty today to order an immediate
investigation.
Admiralty officials who were on the
ground early today ridiculed these
rumors. They pointed ont that the
same reports went out to the world
when the battleship Bulwark was
blown to pieces at the Sheerness docks
SIX months ago with a loss Of 500
lives. The Admiralty investigation
resulted in the finding that the Bull
'wark was shattered by an Internal
explosion, the nature of which was
never made public.
The Princess Irene, a new 6,000-ton
liner, built for the Canadian Pacific
Railway, and almost Immediately COM
mandeered by the government, had
been in service as a mine-layer and
was at the Sheerness dockyards for
repairs. Exactly how the explosion
occurred may never be known. Not
man of the 300 or 400 thought TO
have been aboard the Princess irene
escaped, the only survivors of the crew
being three men who were ashore.
The liner disappeared in one vast
roar OF flame and smoke, according
to Jack Hodges, who was returning
TO the ship in small boat. When the
smoke difted away, there was moth
ing in sight, but piece of the ves-
sells stack.
There was few seconds of dead
silence said Hodges. "Then things
began spattering down into the water,
bits of mems legs and arms and
bodies, splinters of wood and steel"
The debris came down so thick /
lodged back in the cabin"
Splinters of wreckage spread over
a wide area in falling, some Of them
falling nine miles from Sheerness. A
little girl, four years old, was hurled
to the ground and killed. while
the railway bridge over Port
Victoria Station Crews OF several
vessels lying near the Princess Irene
suffered severely from the concus-
sion.
Another child, Hilda Boust. aged
nine, was killed at Port Victoria. She |
was playing on the beach and was
struck in the head by flying piece |
If iron from the wrecked warship.

One hundred and fifty-four Japanese,

latter take out their licenses they will
then be subject to all provisions of
the health code. which provides that
all laundries be supplied with sanitary

SCHOFIELD BARRACKS, Feb. II.
Capt. p. ID. Glassford, athletic Off.
Ger OF the 1st Field Artillery, states
that he visited Mr.. Jeff McCarn In tie
office Of the U. S. district attorney a
few days ago and found him very
much in favor of boxing in the army
and very willing to do anything In his
power to make it possible for the sol
diers of Oahu to enjoy this most p0pu-
lar form of entertainment.
Capt Glassford explained to Mr..
McCarn that there are scores OF sol
diers who are more than willing to
go into the ring for exhibition bouts
that are almost as thrilling rs real
prize fights, and are willing to do so
just for the love of the sport. Capt.
Glassford was anxious to have enc en-.
tertainment of this nature each month
and charge a small admission. which
at the end CT year should be deyot-
ed to the erection of a gymnasium.
A gymnasium is badly needed at Scho-
field, for the soldiers have no place
to play basket ball, indoor baseball
and ether indoor sports and exercises.
The district attorney showed that the
direct or indirect charge of an admis-
sion fee would be in direct violation
Of the law. but gave it as his opinion
that contributions could he asked for
to defray the expenses of the enter
tainment and to accumulate fund
for the erection of gymnasium. He
has written to the attorney general
for decision on this point. so that
the monthly boxing entertainments
and the Schofield gymnasium may
very soon be realities.
