at San Diego, Cal, and Honolulu,
Hawaii, where the work has begun; at
Cavite, P. J., where arrangements for

AND FOE
FIGHTAT SIX YARDS
Recapture BY Germans Of Part
OF Hill so Brings Trenches
r. Close Together

DUNKTRK, France, August 20. -
Correspondence Of e. The Associated
Press) The present position at Hill 60,
which the British military authorities
recently admitted had lapsed back into
German possession, is peculiar and Of
great interest.
The hill is really nothing but a
knoll of gently rising ground that forms
the end of the Klein.Zillebeke ridge,
The German trenches run In q double
tier along the crest and upper slope,
while the British trenches form an Sir-
regular line along the edge Of tho low
er slope. The Germans are at the top
of the hill, while the British are a
little way up the side of II.
The whole face of the hill presents
a picture of the widest confusion Ev.
erywhere are huge craters, the result Ct
mine explosions on the night of the
British attack. Torn and gaping sand.
bags are scattered in profusion, broken
rifles, odds and ends Of equipment of
all kinds, smashed barb.wire, and a
mss Of other debris Hes in bewilder-
ing variety down the hillside, the whole
half hidden in the long grass that has

The trenches twist and wind in q
remarkable manner. At one point there

from the British lines stfaight into the
heart of the German position, and down
this two barbados have been erected
one on the English side and one on
the German side. Here the opposing
forces come within six yards of each
other. Between the rival barricades
there stretches short patch Of ground
shut in on either hand by the crumbling
walls of the old trench. ASH

water has collected. Beyond it stretca;

WALUKU
JUDGE REMOVED

Charging Judge William A. Mckay,
district magistrate of Wailuku, with
forgery, embezzlement, and the faIsi.
flying Of court record, Attorney Eu.
gene Murphy this week fled with the
Territorial supreme Seourt set of sen.
sational articles asking for the remoy.
al of the Judge from the bench, re.
ports the Maui News. The charges
which Murphy makes allege that
Judge Mckay did these various thing
in order to prejudice him in the civil
suit for some $40 of Murphy VS.. Nc.
Kay, now pending. b. Z. II,
Murphy's quarrel with the district
magistrate is of long standing. The
civil action referred to Is to recover
money which Murphy claims to have
deposited Mt various times as guar.
antee of court costs, and which Nc.
Kay later refused TO return. to him
Judge Mckay has for some time rel
fused TO accept Murphy's checks, de
handing instead the actual cash, and
Murphy, in seven specifications agains,
the Judge, embodies this as one OF
them, together with the statement
that no receipts can be obtained fol
cash so paid. D.. %. .-. r.. E'.f
Murphy alleges that Judge Mckay
has obtained his signature to cosi
charge Of twenty cents and later al
tered the figures 20 read $4.05; and
he charges Mckay with withholding
matters from record until after settle
ment had been made, in eight sop
arate cases, for the purpose Of pre-
venting Murphy's getting money due
him. 49, .-.
Other charges have to do with fall
siFving of accounts, and the charge il
also made that the court neglected u
enter of record certain testimony, for
the purpose Of causing a miscarriage
Of Justice, to Murphy's detriment.
Murphy attacked the jurisdiction OF
Judge McKav on the grounds that hi;
license as district court attorney ex,
pired in 1911, and had not been re.
newed, thus, as Murphy holds, render
ing the Judge Ineligible as district
magistrate, Notwithstanding his recent
appointment by the supreme court.

j. S. NEEDS HAITI
TO PROTECT CANAL
Retired Rear-AdmiraI Dillingham;
Says We Need Permanent
Control For Naval Base

ST. LoUIS.-Albert c. Dillingham;
of New York, rear admiral of the Unit.
ed States navy, retired, in an address
before the City Club here, urged c
bigger and better navy and army foI
the United States as the best insur.
anee against war.
Although Dillingham; pointed out
plainly in his talk that the navy OF
this country is in reality Slipping
out Of third into fourth place among
the great navies of the world, he
brought forth much applause when he
characterized the United States navy
as the "equal of any navy in the
world, taken ship for ship and man
for man.
'There are two things we must have
If we would succeed as a world power
in the future" declared Dillingham;
The first is we must have a strong
navy and equally strong army to main
tain our Monroe doctrine. Second, we
must have control over the Island OF
Haiti, because of its command of the
Caribbean and the approach to the
Panama Canal
1--WE need this island as a naval base
and we must have it to better control
the Panama Canal in case of war"
Now is the time, in the opinion OF
Dillingham;, for the United States tc
take over control of Haiti, while Ger
many and France are engaged in war
"The force of the Monroe doctrine
the open-door policy in China and the
rights of neutrals on the seas are just
as strong as the navy and army of the
United States make them, and not a BIZ
stronger" asserted Dillingham;.
Germany and Japan, he continued
are giving us a tussle for naval su
premacy.
Dillingham; was the person who ixe(
up an agreement between this country
and the San Domingo Republic, by
which the United States became &
"receiver for the island, and assiste(
in payment of it's debts. He intimate(
that this policy would be applied by
this government to Haiti.
The way to get an efficient army il
to get men and to train them, he said
and the way to get navy is to have
our congressman work for biggej
navy. s."

United States Navy, did well in estab
fishing the naval board of invention

Transfer from his present position

in charge Of the office for seven and a
half years, and in that time has award,
ed contracts for canal purchases
amounting. to about a quarter of a bill

governor of the Canal Zone.
1t is understood Col. Chester Harl-
ing, acting governor of the zone and
former engineer commissioner of the
District Of Columbia, is looked upon
by Secretary Garrison and the Presi-
