NARROW ESCAPE
FOR SUPERVISOR
AT DIAMOND HEAD
Cable Breaks Under Strain and
Hits Supervisor Larsen
on Left Leg

There was a chapter of accidents at
Diamond Head yesterday where the
Hustace-Peck Company, Limited, is
delivering and hoisting into the crater
heavy material and supplies being
used in the work on the Notifications
In the crater.
In the morning there we're two acci-
dents, one of which slightly lamed
Supervisor Larsen, and in the after.
neon an employe named Fred Silva
was so badly hurt that he was taken
to the Queens hospital. His condition
IS not serious.
"The second accident was lucky for
two OF u.s. said Supervisor Larsen to:
day. "A flying wire cable struck me
on the left leg and knocked down one
of the men but luckily the cable ran
over a 12 by 12 timber and the man
wasn't hurt though the wire was
pulled over his body.
About $3.50 in the afternoon the
other accident occurred. We were
moving one of the big pieces and a
rail flew up and came down on Fred
instep. A timber hit him in the stom-
ach and he was taken to the hospital
pretty badly hurt.
Both morning accidents were due to
wire cables jamming on the winding
drums, then suddenly getting away
and swapping under tension as weights
were being handled.

WeII-knoWn Businessman and
Republican Leader May
Succeed ]. c. Quinn
APPOINTMENT OFFERED;
NO DECISION YET MADE
Believed Board Would Confirm
Nomination at 0nce-Would
Be a Strong Man

Mayor Lanes choice for supervisor
to succeed James C. Qdinn. who died
three days ago, Is Robert w. Shilgle,
president of the Waterhouse Trust Co.,
and one of the Republican leaders OF
the territory.
The Mayor has not made this an
nouncement, nor has Shingle intimat-
ed that he has the opportunity to take
a supervisors chair, but such is the
fact. t....r
An answer is expected in two or
three days. 1t may be said that Mr..
Shingle has not yet definitely made
up his own mind. A friend says that
while he hopes Shingle will accept. he
is somewhat doubtful. as the mayors
selection is one of the busiest busi-
nessmen in Honolulu.
Members of the board of supervis-
ors have heard unofficially that
ShingIe has been proffered the ap-
pointment The charter requires that
the mayors appointee, to take office,
must have the approval OF the board.
1t is not believed that Shingle would
have any opposition on the board.
Among the very few who have
heard that Shingle is the mayors
choice, there is strong hope that ne
will take the position. 1t is pointed
out that his business experience,
known ability as harmonizer and
pacificator, familiarity with municipal
affairs from personal interest extend
ing over many years, and reputation
for putting through difficult negotia-
tions successfully combine to make
him a valuable man for the present
board. AS city treasurer he gained
much insight into municipal methods
and both before and since his term In
that office has helped in much city
business.
Quinn's death left vacancy in the
craftsmanship. Of the street and road
committee. Supervisor Arnold Is nov
in charge Of that COMMITTEES and is
starting energetic work.

Men Who Died In Submarine
Win Be Honored BY Former
Comrades of Service

Solemn and touching ceremony will
mark the progress of the Inflated F-4
through the Honolulu harbor channel.
The 81 men who gave up their lives
in the execution of their duty will be
honored in death by their former COM
rades of the service, gathered on the
quarterback of the Maryland.
Plans are now being made to police
the harbor during the towing of the
submarine through the channel, and to
keep all vessels out of the course. The
boat will be taken to the quarantine
wharf, where the bodies will be taken
out, identified and placed In caskets.
The remains will then be brought
to the Maryland, where the entire
crew will be, called aft for prayer. The
cruisers eoIors will be at half mast.
With these simple but impressive cere-
monies, the caskets will be placed on
the Maryland's quarterback, on spe.
cially built platform, draped with
flags. Although the order has not
been received as yet, it is confidently
expected that the Maryland will be-
come a funeral ship, and convey the
bodies to San Francisco, where more
extensive funeral services will be held.
Getting Gear Ready.
Getting gear together for another
attempt to lift the F-4 was the extent
of this mornings salvage work. Lieut..

Honolulu electors viii be given an

nation given out today. The proposal
probably will be put on the. ballot
at the coming special city election for

II favor a good city hall, one that
will be credit TO this city and which
will serve its needs for many years to
come. said Mayor Lane today. IF
we are TO erect city hall out of the
general fund Of the city, II would have
TO be a cheap structure, and not only
that but the building would be paid
for entirely by the present taxpayers,
and would be enjoyed principally By
those who are 70 follow in the future.
! am conferring with the supervisors
now on the matter"
II Is understood that the proposal
OF the mayor is being considered fay-
orably by the supervisors.
An act passed by the 1915 legisla-
ture empowers the city and county to
issue bonds for permanent structures
and improvements Mayor Lane be-
lieves that the voters should have
something to say about the proposed
city hall and whether it is to be con-
Structed out Of tax funds or from the
Proceeds of a bond issue.
Supervisor Logan heartily indorses
the plan.
II have talked with several busi-
nessmen on this" said the chairman
OF the ways and means committee,
"and they agree with me that the fu-
ture taxpayers ought to bear their
proportion OF the cost Of city hall. 1
believe that we can build a city hall
for $50, GOO that will be credit to the
city. The rent we are now paying for
the Kapiolani building and the Nc.
Intyre building offices viii almost pay
the interest on the bonds.

MEN ALSO MENTIONED
FOR EDUCATION BOARD
Murrell Dobbins, Former City
Treasurer, and Bayard Henry
Among Possibilities

While prominent Philadelphia women
are being urged for membership I'm the
Beard Of Education, the names Of several
men are also being suggested in political
and educational circles
a vacancy in the School Board exists
through the death of William T. Tilden.
II is expected that the Judges will soon
name man or woman to succeed him.
The terms of five members will expire in
November, so that they will also be re-
quired to make new appointments then.
There are now no female members Of
the School Board. Among the women
suggested for the honor are Mrs Rudolph
Blankenburg and Mrs. Edwin G. Grce.
Murrel Dubbins, eX-City Treasurer. has
also been mentioned as a possible sue
cessor of Mr.. Tilden.
Mr. Dobbins was once a member of the
Board OF Education, but was Obliged to
resign because of his election to the City
Treasurership. From two distinct sources
today came the report that Bayard Henry
would i'm all probability be elected to the
board.
Mr.. Henry is active i'm educational af-
fairs in Germantown. He is a director
of the Pennsylvania Railroad, having been
elected to that office last January to
succeed n. Parker Shortridge.
Mr.. Henry has been active i'm politics
for many years and enjoys a large law

SUFFRAGISTS REJOICE
In BRUMBAUGH'S HELP
Woman Leader and Penn Pro-
fessor Praise Governors and
Penrose's Declarations

Governor Brumbaugh's stand for suf-
frage was strongly indorsed by Miss Ber-
tha Sapovits, sunragist speaker. who ad-
dressed crowd of several hundred on
tho Postoffice plaza at noon today.
"Suffragists have welcomed indeed the
news that Governor Brumbaugh has come
out for suffrage" Miss Sapovitz said
Ills stand is one which should not only
be admired, but should be upheld by
every man and woman of this State. All
Pennsylvanians should rejoice that Penn
sylvania has such a Governor who has
foresight and such keen sense of right
eousness and justice.
Governor Brumbaugh has shown his
efficiency ever since he has been in Har-
risburg. His attitude has been one which
has been indorsed by many of the most
righteousness and fearless men of the
State"
Samuel Moyerman, Of the University of
Pennsylvania Law School, asked that
women be given the ballot, as it is theirs
by right. lie pleaded for a better democ-
racy SOS that the American Eagle might
use two wings in flying i'm the course OF
righteousness, instead of only one"
Suffrage circles today expressed graft
fication over the declarations of the Gov
ernor and Senator Penrose in favor OF
granting women the ballot.
Governor Brumbaugh, in an interview
last night at Denver, said he was elected
on a personal platform favoring woman
suffrage, and that despite the united eff
forts of the Democrats and Progressives
to defeat him, he considered his election
one of the best reasons for believing that
the women will be granted the ballot.
Internationally the women are entitled
to vote. As a school man, have learned
the value of their conclusions, and In
some instances have even found ii wise to
defer to them" He predicted that the
equal franchise amendment would be car
ried by u large majority at the November
election.
Senator Penrose, speaking at Reading
ss the guest of the Ladies of the Macca-
bees, declared that women should have
the ballot. "The women who show the
capacity for organization which is dis
played I'm the women's branch Of the
Maccabees should be recognized by the
franchise right" he said.
