 TRUCKS INCREASE

An analysis Of official export records issued here today by the National Au- tomobile Chamber of Commerce. as- serted that the exportation of motor trucks from this country during 1914 increased more than 432 per cent in value over 1913.

CIRCLE HAS A NEWsPApFR R

Up at Circle City is being published what is probably the most interesting periodical. if it may be called period ical, in Alaska. It is the Circle Hot Air Budget, printed by aid of a type writer and mimeograph
 The policy of the paper, as outlined in its editorial, is to be neutral in poli- tics and to try to agree with it's read CTS. It has cartoons. some catchy verse and some local items that would make Bill Nye, were he alive, sit Up and take notice. Here are samples of news:

 There sems to be soms mystery in regard to who is editor of the Hot Air Budget but there is reason to believe that ! R Dodson the well known mer- chant of Circle, has a hand in its prep aration. Here is sample of the verse appearing in the Hot Air Budget: "Mary had a little shoe.
 It made her foot look swell, But when she went out for stroll.
 Her corns gave her-Hail Colum. "Mary had a little glove
 Now this is on the level-- But when she went out for a drive
 It pinched her like the-misehief."

 "It is now not only a question of nerves, as the Germans told us long ago, but a question of wits. We are confronted with the same kind of prob lem as the one that baffled us for so long in South Africa. We have to do with an enemy whose ways are not our ways; and now, as then. we must consider whether it is better to be whipped for our fine old sporting methods or whether we will take a leaf out of the enemy's book and beat him at his own game
 "In regard to tactics, it Is evident that We should deprive ourselves of nothing In the shape of weapons and appliances that will injure and alarm the enemy's troops. The Hague rules may yet serve strange purposes: the code, once broken. may prove to be category of deviltries practiced on those who first resorted to savage warfare .
 Major Redway would also like to see the super1uous personnel of govern ment weeded out and sent to the front The censors, for example. more than thousand in number could mostly be dispensed with, he thinks. and sent to do duty In the trenches.
 ''It is no longer becoming to f1aunt our luxurious habits in the face of a world in arms" he urges "Of course, it would be false economy to allow our wounded to lie on straw and remain intended for weeks as the Serbians do from lack Of means. But on the other hand, a census of able bodied men who are employed in connection with hospitals. ambulances. rest camps and recreation establishments would prove a revelation. Even the occu- pants of the war office. and the hun dreds of staff officers throughout the kingdom could be winnowed with great advantage, including such establish ments as the censors office. The per sonnel attached to Generals headquar ters are always too liberallY bestowed especially in camps where operations are few and far between"

BRITISH EXPERT TELLS
 OF ALLIES FAILURES

LONDON-"It is no use to cry over spilled milk. Let us admit frankly that our first and second campaigns against Germany have been failures, and start & new one" writes Major G. w. Red way, a well known British military ex- pert to the Daily Mail, urging the seriousness of the war situation and the necessity of complete recon struction of the British plan of cam paign on a broader and far more inten- sive basis.
 Major Redway puts 1t even more strongly. "The contest, if now stop ped" he declares, "would be decided in favor of the Austro- German alliance. German science has been opposed by
 Tt is very difficult to be precise in suggestions which may savor of criti- eism, because this war is not British war primarily, and our gallant ally across the channel must always figure as the senior partner in the enterprise. That the French have upheld their old reputation as dashing fighters is evil denced by their losses uncomplainingly borne; but it were much to be desired that We could as easily recognize the value of General Joffres strategy"
 Major Redway's criticism of the French campaign is that it has been too frequently aimless and resultness. He says:
 "The evasion of General Joffre last August prevented a decisive action be- ing fought; but such evasion. of course involved abandonment of territory. The French evacuation of their ten north ern departments enabled the Germans to extend and fortify a frontier which now seems impenetrable.
 Behind this barrier German indus try has assembled all manner of means and devices to prevent it's recapture and to support fresh enterprises to be undertaken at leisure. Offensive strat- sgy coupled with defensive tactics has once more justified the maxims of Ma = poleon, and so far as the operations on land in the west are concerned, the war is over in a technical sense. The decisive action that was practicable last year is no longer possible. and We need

ROBT. W CATHcARI
FALLS ANDExPRES

Robert w. Catheart died yesterday
morning, shortly after eleven O'Clock.
lie was walking along the Eva side
of Alakea street, opposite the Won
llamm Young garage, when he dropped
dead. Persons on the street picked the
body up and rushed II to the offices of
Doctors Herbert and Walters. Doctor
Herbert, after an examination, said
heart failure was the cause. No funeral
arrangements had been made up to a
late hour last night.
The deceased was born in County
Down, Ireland, on January 20, 1856, and
was fftynine years of, age last Jan
ua.y. lie came to Hawaii more than
forty years ago. he was an expert ae-
couptant and held important positions
in Honolulu and other parts of the
Islands during his long residence here.
lie was at times connected with com.
mcrcial concerns in Honolulu. For two
periods, up to short time ago, Mr.,
rathcart was head clerk and chief ac-
countant of the road department of the
city government. In politics he was a
Democrat and of late aspired to many
Political positions, but unsuccessfully.
The deceased was rated man Of con
siderable means, estimates Of his estate
running up as high as 100000, but it
is believed that quarter of the amount
is more likely the figure, While known
generally as very saving man, Mr.
Cathcait contributed literally In pro.
portion to his income, a percentage OF
which he set aside yearly for the pur.
pose, to local charities. For many
years past he placed annually a goodly
sum in the hands of Charles s. Crane
manager of The Advertiser, with direc
tions AS to how the money should be
distributed among charitable and other
organizations Mr.. Crane was, how
ever, eniOined under the seal of secrec y
not to diyulge the source whence the
money came. Mr.. Cathcart's death has
removed this seal of secrecy.
The deceased is survived by wife
Mrs. Cathcart, residing at 362 North
School street, and four SONS, William
Cathcart, clerk in the local postoffieI
and Edwin t'athcart, employed with the
United States government at Pearl
lInrnur, the two other sous being at
school in the mainland. A sister lives
