FREITAS DRAWS
DEEP BREATH AS
GLASS IS FIXED

At least one of the troubles OF
Building Inspector Freitas has ended.
That one is the cracked plate glass
window that let in the light above the
inspectors Office table, and threat
ened him continually with thoughts of
what might happen should it come
down upon his head. The glass was
removed this morning, and brand
new one put in its place.
Quite history attaches to the
broken glass. It was cracked last
year by the heavy firing of the coast
defense guns at target practise. AS
the days went by the crack, together
with the inspectors fears, grew larger.
He took up the matter with the Kap-
iolani Estate, which owns the build.
ing. When the estate agent delayed
in replacing the window, a report was
submitted to the board of supervisors.
This was at the last meeting Of the
board. and the board IN business
like way turned thei matter over to
the city and county, attorney. Yes
terday, when the bic guns began to
boom again, the crackswiden visibly,
and the officer of tthepbuilding inspec.
tors was thrown into panic, after
which the Kapiolani Estate had the
window fixed.

JAPANESE MAY
PARK TRACT ON
NlUANU STREAM

to improve and make into public
park section of land along the Nuu-
anu stream between School and Kua-
KIM streets, known as the Liliuoka-
lani Gardens. has ceased, and prob
ably permanently This information
was given this morning by member
of the federation, who said that at
present the organization has no funds
with which to continue the work.
1t is reported, however. that certain
Japanese of Honolulu are contemplat-
ing taking over the work and pushing
il to completion. The Civic Fedora
ton is depending on the Japanese to
raise money and take hold of the
work, in conformity with promise
said to have been made about four
years ago, when the work was first
started At that time the Japanese
contributed about 5000. 1t was under
stood at that time that the city and
county would aid the Japanese If the
latter made the start, member OF
the federation said today.

GENERAL CARTER
WRITES LETTER
ON LUAU AFFAIR
Communication to Sheriff is
Reported to Ask For Reopen
ing of Investigation

The now famous mayors luau,"
given to visiting congressman last May
at kapioIani Park, from which soldiers
and sailors in uniform are alleged to
have been barred by city policemen
acting on orders from Mayor Lane, 10
likely 70 be probed again.
Major General w. II. Carter has
written letter about the luau matter
to Sheriff Rosa letter which is said
to ask for reopening of the investi.
finally fixing the blame for the con-
duct Of the police
Sheriff Rose declines to give out
the letter for publication without the
consent of General Carter, and will
not even discuss its contents, though
he admits he has received from the
general a communication dealing in
some manner with the Iuau.
General Carter declines to make
public the nature Of his letter until he
has received a reply from the sheriff.
The matter is practically certain to
come up at tonfght.s meeting of the
board of supervisors. The committee
Of the whole board, with Supervisor
Logan as chairman, after an investi-
cation submitted a report to the board
which fixed the responsibility on
Mayor Lane for the orders to the po-
lice.
This report was subsequently
amended and emasculated until 1t
merely held Mayor Lane responsible
for having detail Of police at the
park the evening of the iuau The
report, as amended, has never been
adopted by the board, however, and
an attempt may be made to rush it
through tonight before Sheriff Rose
appears with the request from Gen.

Capt II. Wada Of the Japanese aeri-
al fleet, and who was in command of

bardment and capture Of Tsingtau. the
former German naval base, by the Jap
anese, gave the local Japanese news
papers an unusually interesting story
yesterday Capt Wada was through

four hits were made on the small ma
terial target towed across the field
of fire. With the 3-inch guns there
is no plotting of splashes to deter
mine hits on theoretical target. Ac-
tnal holes in an actual target are what
count and unfortunately they were
few this morning. The range seemed
to be good throughout, most Of the
errors being due to DETECTION.
Service practise with the s-inch guns
is about the prettiest Of any in the
local defenses. There are fewer de-
lays as a rule and more shots are fired.
The target is at comparatively short
range and it is possible for spectators
to see the whole performance. Then
again, there is more of a firing prob
lem worked out with the smaller cali
Der guns. Two separate tugs tow two
targets en- different courses and 1t is
net until the last minute that the bat
terry commander knows which target
lie is to fire on. The two guns are
served by double detail in order to
train more men OF the company to
actual firing, After the first string of
20 shots this shift is made. T. ID.
Sloan commands the battery OF 3-inch
guns this year.
At the completion of day firing at
Fort Armstrong. Col. Rafferty,, COM
manding the coast defenses, accompa-
MED by several observers on duty for
the practise, left for Fort Kamehame-
ha, where day practise is being con-
Quoted this afternoon.
Tonight there will be firing from
the Fort Ruger mortars, the practise
being scheduled to commence at $3.50.
Yesterday afternoon the 14-inch gun
at De Russy fired seven shots for rec
ord, after a long delay, due to a
steamer getting in the field of fire.
Some irregularity had been found with
the powder at the time of the trial
shots and although disappointing it
was no great surprise to the battery
officers that no more hits were made.
The mortars at Battery Harlow, Fort
Ruger, were also erratic in their firing
yesterday morning.
Practise for the 6-incn battery at
De Russy followed the 14-inch firing
and was apparently quite successful
This battery, commanded this year by
Lieut.. L. d, Pepin, led all the 6-inch
guns in the service last year. APP
parently the projectiles were striking
very close to the target yesterday.

CONES, To MEET
LONDON PASSES
HIM IN MID-SEA

TO come all the way from the San
Joaquin valley in California to Homo
lulu to meet Jack London and Mrs.
London, and then to pass the Lon
don's in mid-ocean. was the i'll luck of
Elwyn Hoffman of Patterson, CAL, ed
itor and manager Of the Patterson r.
rigator, one of the live papers Of the
interior of the state.
Mr.. Hoffman arrived in Honolulu
this morning In the Matsonia. While
at sea he passed the Sonoma, carry
ing Mr.. and Mrs. London to the main
land only the smoke of the Sonoma
being visible on the horizon. Wire
less messages we're exchanged. and as
a result the Londons will probably re-
turn to Hawaii about the middle Of
next month, instead Of deferring their
return until December. as they plan
ned when they left here last Thurs
day.
Mr. Hoffman, who has never been in
the islands before, plans to remain
here for a three months vacation.

CHEAP Gas Generation

Produces gas electrically at one-half
to o~ne-fourth the cost Of generation
by water power, even in a land OF
waterfalls, and represents a new tri.
umph in waste saving. Sweden is a re.
gion of wealth in timber as well as OF
cheap water power, and the waste
from wood cutting is estimated to be
sufficient for a constant supply OF
10000 to 100, 900 horse power OF en-
ergy in addition to the powerarequired
for the sawmills. A new electric
plant for Lejusne is expected to yield
the equivalent of 1900 horse power at
a cost Of less than a thirteenth of a
cent per kilowatt hour. The full sup
ply is a mixture of sawdust with ten
to twenty per cent of chips, and this
costs-in a green state-20 cents per
load at the mill. The gas producers
are charged with this fuel, arrange
ment being made for recovering tar,
wood naphtha, and acetic acid. II ex-
pectations are realized, the capacity
of the station will be increased to
1900 horse power, and this will still
further lessen the cost per electric
unit.

Deaths on the Highways.

During the first six months OF the
present year there eem to have been
an alarming increase in the number OF
deaths and accidents in the public
highways. This increase is not con-
fined to any character. For instance,
the fatalities due to automobiles IN
New York state increased from 1873 in
1914 to PAL this year. In New Jersey
during the same period there were
48 deaths and this year SO. Popula-
ton grows and SO does the number OF
vehicles in use on the highways. but
neither are sufficient to account for
this unreasonable increase in deaths
on the highways. Drivers and pedes-
TRANS both have their rights, but the
observance Of ordinary care on the
part Of the mar in the vehicle and the
man on foot would undoubtedly cause
a big decrease in the number Of avoid.
able deaths, the Philadelphia Inquirer
remarks.
The Tupelo journal., 1915-10-08

Earth slides in the Panama
Canal has created a blockade of
vessels at both entrances and
orders have been issued for them
to proceed to their destination
around Cape Horn. The Secre-
tary of War has approved an or
der closing the canal until Nov.
l. The late Senator Morgan, Of
Alabama, the great advocate of
an isthmian canal, advocated the
Nicaragua route because it was
level and easy of maintenance
and approach. The cost of con-
struction and maintenance would
not have been half so great as
over the Panama route and Sen
ator Morgan accepted the latter
route as a final effort to build
the canal across Panama. The
wisdom of his contention is very
soon demonstrated and future
generations will be called on to
finally cut through the Nicarau-
qua lakes for a sea level route
that viii be atall times available.
