Bodies of at least four members o.
the crew Of the submarine F-4 will
never be recovered, even in part; all
hope has been abandoned of identify
ing more than the four already identi-
fed, and for the heap of bones recov-
cred from the null, estimated as rep

six skulls and several fragments Of
others have been discovered. There
is, apparently, no hope of ever
determining where the other bodies
or fragments of bodies have disap-
peared to, nor in what manner they
left the hull of the ship.
Investigation of the submarine is al
most COMPLETED. and on Saturday or
Monday the F4 will be taken from
drydock, and will be towed to Pearl
Harbor, with the aid of the pontoOns
with which she was raised from the
floor of the ocean. The local board
appointed to recommend what shall be
done with the ruined hull will send
written report to Washington, and not
until reply is received will eventual
disposition be made of the hull.

ADMITS
SHOOTING Wife;
PLEA CHANGED
Will Be Up for Sentence Satur-
day; Aged Mother Weeps as
Son is Returned to Jail

With the consent of the prosecu.
ticR, Circuit Judge Ashford today gave
permission to William Pieper to with.
draw his plea of not guilty to a charge
of murder in the first degree, and al
lowed him to enter plea Of guilty
of murder in the second degree.
Pieper was charged with first de-
gree murder in an indictment return
ed by the territorial grand jury few
weeks ago. 1t was alleged that he
shot and killed Susie Pieper. his Ha-
waiian wife. At the time of his ar
raignment, his attorneys asked for
weeks continuance in order to de-
termine upon a plea. Pieper pleaded
not guilty. The remainder of the
jury was to have been drawn this
morning
Following Piepers plea of guilty to
second degree murder, the court an.
nounced that sentence will be pro-
nounced next Saturday morning at 8
o'clock. The penalty for second de-
gree murder may be life sentence.
or it may be any number of years
not less than 20
IN explaining MS reason lot consent
ing to the withdrawal of the plea ON
the first charge, A. NJ. Brown, city and
county attorney, said he was con-
vinced that he would not be able to
get more than verdict of second
degree murder. or probably even less,
from the jury. The fact that Pieper
attempted to shoot himself after he
had killed his wife might have some
weight with the jury in tending to
show that the man was not in his
right mind when he did the shooting.
he said.
Several relatives of Pieper, includ-
ing his mother, were in court today.
The aged mother wept bitterly as the
patrol wagon carried, her son away.

If Tonnage is Secured
NO IDEA OF CHANGING
RATES FOR PASSENGERS
Crack 24-not Liner Would
Make Trip in Four Days and

For the purpose of determining just
how much freight business will be

agef OF the Great Northern Pacific
Steamship Company, arrived in Homo
lulu at o'clock this morning on the
Makura, TO stay q week or 10 days.
Whether the Great Northern will be
placed on the Honolulu-San Francisco

AS soon as the Makura docked, com
ing in from Vancouver, Acting Presi-
dent. J. r. c. Hagens of the Chamber
OF Commerce and A. p. Taylor, secre
tary OF the Hawaii Promotion Com
mittee, went up the gangplank and
greeted Mr.. Stone and C. w. Wiley,
marine superintendent of the Great
Northern Pacific, who Is accompany
ing the traffic manager on the trip.
Il cant tell Just what the outlook
for bringing the Great Northern here

On arriving, Mr.. Stone asked both
Mr.. Taylor. OF the Promotion Commit

people Of Honolulu feel about getting
the Great Northern to call here. He
was told that the question Of trans

BOOSTS SQUAD
OF MOTORCYCLE
COPS FOR CITY

That the mounted police should be
supElanted by an up-to-date motor
cycle squad is the belief held by
Charles F. Chillingworth. third deputy
city attorney.
Almost every city of any import
ance in America has a well drilled
motorcycle squad to handle the traf-
fee in the downtown districts, and the
mounted police have been used only in
the public parks and country districts.
There is no reason why Honolulu
should not adopt this system that has
