The building was occupied by can

firms manufacturing clothing, whose
employees normally totaled 300, but
more than a third had been dismissed
before the fire started for a Saturday

The flames were discovered shortly
before A o'clock by a girl employee of
the candy factory, which occupied the
ground floor and basement, and were
soon roaring up the elevator shaft,
around which wound the principal
stairway

There was one other stairway in the
rear of the building, and some of the
entrapped persons escaped by that, but
before the firemen arrived men and
women were leaping from the win
dows. The flames had quickly mush-
roomed from the. elevator shaft into
the fourth floor, and scarcely had the
first streams of water entered the
building when the roof collapsed. The
other floors soon fell, one by one.
The flames spread so rapidly that
rescue for most of the employees in the
building by stairs and elevator was
impossible. The only fire escape be-
came damned. The flames drove the
frightened men and women to the win
dows and forced them to jump.

RESULTS OF THE ANNAPOLIS PROBE.

That the secretary of the navy considers the
Annapolis "cribbing" cases a scandal only to
be eradicated by drastic methods is. shown in
the announcement of what amounts to a COM
plete reorganization at the Naval Academy.
It will be recalled by navy men that when the
findings of the court of inquiry we're made pub
lie, there was some comment upon the appar-
ent lightness of sentence melted out to those de-
clared guilty
Rear-Admiral Fullam originally recommend
ed the dismissal of seven midshipmen for hav-
ing had previous knowledge of examination
papers. He held that the students should have
reported the fact that these papers had been
passed around Then followed the storm whose
echoes were heard in Congress- The court of
inquiry after thorough probe has found that
sixty-three and four tenths per cent of the first
class and eighty per cent of the second class
had been able to get "dope" on the examina-
tions. Other illegitimate praetises were also
discovered The court recommended the dis
missal of two midshipmen and the disciplining
of fifteen others, some being reprimanded and
others set back class. The present dispatches
would seem to indicate that Secretary Daniels
has found something radically defective in the
management of the Naval Academy and is de-
termined to carry out such reorganization as
will make impossible the opportunities which
caused the disgrace of number of fine young
Americans.

HOW TOCHECk
TUBERCULOSIS

The anti-tubereulosis bureau of tht
board Of health has issued the fol
lowing Notice to the Public"
The tuberculosis bureau Of the ter
ritcrial board Of health wishes to re
impress upon the public the fact that
the elimination Of consumption from
the list of our most fatal diseases de
ponds ON each individual member oil
the community, chiefly in regard t.
the following precaution:
1T is absolutely necessary for ev
cry patient suffering from this disease
to detect the symptoms of It and ap
ply for treatment for 1t at the earliest
possible moment, to insure the great
est chance for recovery.
In this connection the bureau wish
es to call the attention Of the public
to the following facts:
Deaths Are Fewer Now.
That deaths from, tuberculosis in
the territory are many fewer at pres
ent than five years ago, owing to the
intelligent cooperation Of the public
with the authorities.
That the present indication (for
two months pastl is that an increase
in the number of these deaths Is prom
ised for this year. -
That the cases being reported at
present are for the most part of pa
tents in the second stage when the
hopes of cure are exceedingly doubt.

That the experience of the bureau
now confirms its previous statements
that patients In the first stage Of the
disease who place themselves under
competent treatment can look forward
to an ultimate cure with great de-
gree of confidence, and that this as
suranee is strongly reaffrmed.
Symptoms Slight at First.
That the early symptoms OF tuber-
culos.s are slight and may be easily
overlooked; that they consist OF a
slight cough persisting for several
weeks or more, afternoon feyers, night
sweats, loss of appetite, feeling Of
iassitude and disinclination to work.
That IL every person suspecting
these symptoms in himself will report
at once to a physician. asking for a
careful clinical examination of the
chest and meteorological examination
of the sputum, great deal of sorrow
will be. saved a very great number Of
individuals in Hawaii in the coming
year.
That the tuberculosis bureau will
extend its advice and assistance to
all who seek it In this connection, with
the utmost cheerfulness and all conf
dences win be duly respected, as pro-
vided by law" - &

EDITOR

The great parent lines of the Hill system
the Great Northern. Northern Pacific and
Burlington routes-through their vast and
thoroughly organized transcontinental passen-
ger management, far-reaching affiliations and
big advertising campaigns, are abundantly
able to reach prospective travellers who other
wise would probably never come to Hawaii,
and to fill their liner for six months of the year
with these passengers. In fact, it is to be
doubted if the Great Northern would cut into
the passenger trade. 1t would build up new
trade
The company does not intend. as we under
stand it, to put the Great Northern on the
Honolulu run except during the rush tourist
season. In the "off' season for Honolulu the
liner would be busy on the joint schedule with
the sister-ship Northern Pacific, up and down
the coast. Furthermore, the maximum of
freight that the liner would carry would be
comparatively insignificant in the totals of this
port
Hawaii of course believes in standing by its
friends The Matson Navigation Company has
been and is an integral part of Hawaii and
Capt. Matson has developed Hawaii's passen-
ger traffic as his steamship company has devel-
oped. The territory is proud of the achieve
ments of the Matson Navigation Company.
But it does not appear that the Great Northern
wants to cut into existing business of other
lines. 1t will ask but very small amount of
freight and will go after new passenger bust
ness in the great Northwest country which has
largely been developed by the Hill lines, and
after Southern California passenger business
not now coming here. j.
Such, at least, is the situation as it now ap-
pears. Traffic Manager Stone has been in
Honolulu less than two days and his proposals
and local discussion have not assumed concrete
form. What strikes the layman is that there
are now "uncharted seas of the tourist terri
tory which the Great Northern might explore
with profit to itself and the islands,
