POLE CROWN THREATENS
HARMONY OF TEUTONS

The Hague. Aug. 15.-Are Germany and
Austria at loGgerheads over the Polish
question?
The Franfurter Zeitung recently stated
that the two central nations had dis
agreed over the subject. Berlin desiring
to see a German prince on the Polish
throne. while Vienna favored an Aus
TRAN archduke. This unusually well-in-
formed journal now speaks out more
sharply than ever on the subject. telling
the Poles bluntly that their desires must
be subservient to those Of Germany.
Austrian Poles already have taken the
initiative comments the Zeitung. and
presumably Austria was aware of the
steps they intended to take. The public
must remember We have only heard from
the Austrian Poles, and it to be feared
that they do not speak for all the Poles.
Thus the action of the Austrian Poles
threatens complications.
Germany and Austria went to war to
protect their own frontiers. The desires
Of the Poles, therefore, can not be the
only standard by which the future of
that country will be decided. Germany
and Austria will have the final word.
The independence of Poland will not be
settled by the action Of one side. More
over, it must be remembered that it was
not the Poles who freed themselves:
they were freed by Germany and Aus
tria. who must put their interests first"

Text Of the American Note in Reply
To Protest by Austria-H hungary

and that followed in not allowing sup
plies to be taken from its ports to
ships Of war on the high seas, 1t is
only necessary to point out that the
prohibition of supplies to ships of war
rests upon the principle that a neutral
power must not permit its territory
to become q naval base for either
belligerent. A warship may, under
certain restrictions. obtain fuel and
supplies in a neutral port once ip
, three months. To permit merchant
vessels acting as tenders to carry sup
plies more often than three months
and in unlimited amount would defeat
the purpose Of the rule and might
constitute the neutral territory a
naval base. Furthermore. this Gov
eminent IL unaware that any Austro-
Hungarian ship Of war has sought to
obtain supplies from a port in the
United States, either directly or in
directly. This subject has, however,
already been discussed with the I'M
perial German Government. to which
the position of this Government was
fully set forth December "a. 1914.
In view of the positive assertion in
the statement of the Imperial and
Royal Government as to the una nimity
OF the opinions of text-writers as to
the expectation Of contraband being
unneutral, this Government has
caused a careful examination of the
principal authorities on international
law to be made. AS a result of this
examination it has come to the con-
clusion that the Imperial and Royal
Government has been misled and has
inadvertently made an erroneous as
sertion. Less than one-fifth Of the
authorities consulted advocate unre-
servedly the prohibition of the export
of .contraband. Several of those who
constitute this minority admit that
the practice Of nations has been other
wise. It may not be inopportune to
direct particular attention to the
declaration of the German authority.
Paul Einicke, who states that, at the
beginning Of a war. belligerents have
never demonstrated against the enact
ment of prohibitions on trade in con-
traband, but adds that such prohibi-
tons may be considered as violations
of neutrality. or at least as unfriendly
acts, II they are enacted during
war with the purpose to close unex-
pectedly the sources of supply to
party which heretofore had relied on
them"
The Government Of the United States
deems it unnecessary to extend fur
Their at the present time considera-
ton Of the statement Of the Austro-
Hungarian Government. The princi-
pies of international law. the practice
of nations. the national safety Of the
United States and other nations with
out gfeat military and naval estab-
lishments. the prevention of increased
armies and navies. the adoption Of
peaceful methods for the adjustment
of International differences. and.
finally, neutrality itself are opposed
to the prohibition by a neutral nation
of the expectation Of arms. ammuni-
ton. or other munitions of war to bel
ligerent powers during the progress of
the war. LANSING.

HOPE To NDICT
FOUR FOR GRAFT
Grand Jury Is Expected to
Act Today in Case Of
Policemen.
OFFICIALS SEEK PROOF
Sentiment in Department Favors
Thorough Investigation. to Free
Innocent Men of Suspicion.

The grand jury Is expected to return
indictments today against members OF
the police department who have accepted
hush" money from women of the under
world These indictments are the ones
that were originally sought by the United
States District Attorney when he began
investigation Of the graft charges lodged
by Mrs. Margaret Stout.
Unable to procure sufficient evidence OF
the hush" money graft to warrant &c.
ton by the grand jury. the United States
attorney presented to the jury the cases
Of former Detective Kliendienst and Po-
liceman Grimes. These two men were
indicted for alleged petty grating that
apparently had no connection with the
hush" graft revealed by Mrs. Stout
While procuring evidence against Kli.n-
dienst and Grimes, the United States at
torney has not ceased his quest Of evil
dence to support the original graft
charges and this is the evidence that 1t
Is expected will be given to the grand
jury today. AS heretofore stated, The
Washington Herald has been informed
that the United States attorney hopes to
ind!ct four men in addition to the two
already indicted.
Searching Inquiry Wanted.
There is a strong sentiment growing
in the rank and file of the police de-
partment for a complete upturning Of
the graft in the department, the con-
viction of the grafters, and the subse-
quent removal Of the stain Of suspi-
cion which now is directed against
scores of innocent men. Policemen in
terviewed last night by The Washing
ton Herald were strong in declaring
that the United States attorney should
not rest until he had revealed the gull
ty grafters.
THE United States attorney owes
that much to me and to every member
Of the department. in my opinion"
said one policeman. The entire per-
sonnet has been besmirched by these
graft charges. and the suspicion now
against innocent policemen never will
be removed until the guilty ones are
shown up"
There is a fear among some police
men that If the United States attorney
fails to procure indictments within the
next few days. the inquiry will lag and
the guilty may not be brought to tus-
tice. 1t is the hope of these policemen
that no stone be left unturned until
all of the men who took hush" money
are indicted.
1t is stated that the United States at
torney pins most Of his hopes for in
dictments today upon two witnesses who
are expected to come from out-of-town.
1t is stated that these witnesses have
testimony corroborative of the evidence
given to the United States at
torney against the policemen who ac-
cepted brides from women in the red
light" district.

STOCK EXCHANGE
Business in Last Fiscal Year
Only Exceeded Twice in His
tory of Organization

At the annual meeting of the Homo
lulu stock and bond exchange, held
Monday, retiring President Campbell
gave the figures $6,629, ,405.13 as rep
resenting the aggregate sales during
the fiscal year on the exchange.
+. q. Duisenberg was elected Npresi-
dent to succeed A. J.N Campbell, II.
Cushman Carter was elected vice
president to succeed Mr.. Duisenberg,
Fl. B. Giffard was elected secretary as
successor to Mr.. Carter, and the Bish-
op Trust Company was again selected
as treasurer.
The following is an excerpt from
the annual address of the president
showing the work accomplished by the
exchange during the year:
This year just closed was one OF
the most active in the history of the
exchange, the aggregate sales amount
ing to $6.629, ,405.13 On only two oc-
casions has this amount been exceed
ed, the banner year of 1912 with sales
of $1l,SS0,7l4, and again in 1910 when
the volume Of business reached $10,-
12S,339. More striking. however, is
the knowledge that the business Of
the year just closed is four times that
OF the last fiscal year.
IAN analysis of the sales record
shows an enormous volume of trad
ing in the lower priced stocks-104,-
952 shares of 0laa changed hands dur
ing the year-while sales of $3.50
shares Of McBryde were registered.
In both cases these sales in number
of shares are double the number trad
ed in during the record year of 1912,
although a comparison of sales OF
other stocks shows. a material reduc-
