HOPE FOR CREW ABANDONED,
Naval Oficials Say Only Question Is
Whether Bodies Can be Recovered
From Submarine.

Naval Ofhcials Say Only Question Is
whether Bodies Can be Recovered
From Submarine.
Washington. March Researchers
for the lost submarine F-4 reported
to Washington late today that they
had determined the location of the
vessel within a radius OF so yards
and that abe lay at the bottom OF
the mouth OF Honolulu harbor I'm
water rangins from 20 10 60 rathoms
In depth.
Rear Admirai moore at Honolulu
cabled 20 Secretary Daniels the fol-
lowing. received W wireless from
Lieut.. Smith. commanding the search
inx neet;
We know location within radius
OF 80 yards: depths vary from -
TO so fathoms: Honolulu harbor' light
bearing "a degrees. true distance
2.soo yards"
The dispatch was In pom TO
one sent earlier In the day by Rear
Admiral Victor Blue. acting secretary
of navy. urgently asking for exact in
formation as to the position OF the
submarine. IL was the first report
he department had received since
Admiral Moore cabied Friday night
that the F-t had been located In so
fathoms OF water.
AL hope that any Of tho crew OF the
"a might be alive was abandoned
two days ago, but department off,
Gals and naval officers here anxiously
awaits news that the bodies have been
recovered.
IL Is feared. however. that the SUBJ
marine may prove to be the tomb OF
her crew. and that II never will be
known what accident befeii her.
Naval officials say that IL the boat is
covered by so fathoms. or 500 feet of
water. II Is unlikely that she a be
raised.
Reports that grapnels have brought
up parts OF the superstructure OF the
F-4 have not been confirmed by Of
hcial dispatches. officials think the
presence OF oil and the rising OF
bubbles to the surface must have en-
eoled the searchers definitely to To-
cate the submarines position.

struck by a heavy touring a be-
longing to and being driven by John
w. WiX. a prominent merchant OF this
city, this afternoon about 3 o'clock
near the East Side Presbyterian
church on Gadsden street. He was
struck by the fender just above the
heart, it is said. He was hurried to
a hospital by Mr.. Wix. where every
thing possible was done for him, but
he died shortly after reaching the
institution.
Young Lowry was waiting about the
church, it is said to join a gymnasium
class to take some exercises. While
waiting he saw a wagon pass, it is
claimed and he ran after it and in
e~ndeavoring to leap onto the wagon,
missed it, and stepped in the way of
Mr.. Wix's machine which was moving
along the street at a slow clip. Per
sons who saw the accident state that
Mr.. WiX was absolutely without fault,
the boy stepping out to the side sud
denly and getting in the path of the
car before he was ware of what he
intended to do.

PLANS OF GENERAL STAFF.
GARRISON WOULD REORGANIZE
ARMY.
Has Plan i,r Permanent Policy Re-
garding National Militia-Tells
Army Officers to Study Problem.

Washington. March 31.-Plans for
reorganizing the army and laying be-
fore congress a basis for a permanent
national militia policy are being work.
ed out by the general staff, assisted by
the general officers of the army. Sec
rotary Garrison announced tonight
that he had ordered this entire sub.
ject restudied, since, in view Of in
creasing interest in military matters,
1t might be deemed advisable to aban-
don the reorganization prepared in
1912.
MY hope and aim is" said Mr..
Garrison. that the result of such a
study may have a practical result in
eventually 81 commencing itself to
congress and the general public that
it will come to be accepted as a wise
policy to be consistently pursued with
respect to the strength and organiza-
ton of our armed land forces in
and efficient development to the ex-
tent that may be necessary in time Of
war
The secretary outlined the study to
be undertaken as follows:
First. the reasonable strength and
organization Of the regular army and
the organized militia.
Second, a careful study of the
question Of a reserve for both the reg
ular army and the organized militia.
Third, the volunteers; their organ
~ization and relation to the regular
army and the organized militia.
Fourth. the amount and character
of reserve material and supplies which
should be available and which can not
be promptly obtained if delayed till
the outbreak of war.
Fifth, a careful study Of all the
accessories required by a military
force properly equipped for field SER
vice in respect to such matters as
aviation, motor transportation to re-
place horse drawn vehicles, etc."
AS to coast defenses, Mr.. Garrison
said, a policy long has been establish
ed and pursued, and that subject
would be studied only to see tina the
defenses were kept abreast of i'm
provements in heavy ordnance.

SERIOUS SITUATION IN EAST.
CHINESE-JAPANESE RELATIONS
GIVE RISE TO ANXIETY.
Break over Deadlock is Expected TO
Occur i'm Conference TO BE Held
TOday--CItimatum is Feared.

Picking, March 31.-In diplomati.
circles the situation arising from ia
pans demands upon China is regard
ed as more serious today than at any
time since the conferences to this
end were ina%ugurated.
After further consultation between
President Yuan Shi Kai and Foreign
Minister Lit Cheng-Hsiang, the Chi
nese persist hat they can not ACCORD
absolute extra-territoiality to Japan
csc immigrants in Manchuria, and at
the conference of yesterday Nh. Hiok1.
the japanese minister, refused to dis
cuss this question further.
1t is believed the conference TO
take place tomorrow probably will
bring a break in the deadlock over
this question, which has lasted for a
number of weeks. Failing to break
the deadlock, it is felt in some quar-
tiers that Japan will present an ulti-
miatum.
AT the conference yesterday M.
Hioki assumed an attitude of frmness
which the Chinese fear indicates the
eXertion Of further pressure upon
them.
Although the Chinese originally de-
clared they would discuss only ~
articles, they now are talking OF
others.
