KEWALO Filling

Attorney-G Must Decide
Which Fund viii Pay for
Reclamation Project

IN a review OF the KewaIo reclama-
ton project and the legal technical
ties which have arisen TO check the
improvement work temporarily Super
intendent Charles r. Forbes estimates
that the entire improvement should be
completed in six months time.
The amount of fill by property-own-
ers remaining TO be made, he esti-
mates, amounts to f24.396 cubic yards
The amount already filled by the con-
tractor and property-owners IS 2S4.933
cubic Yards.
Another legal question has come up
which the attorney general will be
asked to- answer respecting the fund
from which money shall be taken for
the filling OF the streets IN the Ke-
walo district II is held that the ter
ritory must stand this expense. but
Superintendent Forbes is in doubt
whether the law which created the re-
volving fund gives authority to expend
from that for streets, rs the property
owners will not be required, under
the attorney-general's opinion, to re-
fmburse the territory for the improve
ment of the thoroughfares. If the re-
volving fund cannot be used to pay for
these fills Superintendent Forbes
wants to know what fund or appropria-

BARK FIERY CROSS
HAD GREAT RECORD
ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence
Christiania, July 1.-THE Norwe-
gian bark Fiery Cross, recently sunk
by a German submarine off the Scilly
Islands, was the most renowned Of the
China clippers that figured in the great
tea races Of so years ago.
She was built in 1860 to replace an
old Fiery Cross which had been
wrecked the previous year, and was
commanded on her maiden voyage by
Captain Dallas, the greatest of the
clipper captains. Under him and his
successor, Captain Richard Robinson,
she proved well-nigh invincible, re-
ceiving the premium for being the
first vessel in the English docks on
four different years. and being within
"a hours Of winning the race on two
other occasions. She remained in the
front of big racing boats for more
years than any other vessel in marine
history. and outlived all her contempo-
raries Of the famous skipper feet.
In the greatest tea race Of all his
tory. that of 1885, the Fiery Cross held
the lead until the last few days, when
she was obliged to anchor In the
downs and ride out a sudden gale. The
Ariel coming through on less stormy
course. beat a way through the fale
and locked a few hours ahead OF her
rival - =

DUTCH HOSPITAL
SHIP PROPOSAL
IS TURNED DOWN

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence
The Hague, July ,15-Last year
during the beginning of the war, when
the arrival Of the few surviving sail
ors from the three torpedoed British
cruisers. the Hogue Aboukir and Cres-
sy showed what terrible thing mod
ern naval warfare was to be, a num-
Der of Dutch philanthropists discussed
the destrabiliiy Of equipping a neu-
trail Dutch hospital ship which should
patrol the North Sea. The idea was
to have such a ship continuously pres
ent on the high seas, fastening at the
first sound of battle to save those 9TH
erwise condemned to drown after five
or six hours of desperate clinging to a
piece Of wreckage. Naval officers
promised their assistance. The large
steamship companies were willing to
subscribe money and the president of
the Dutch Trading Company Nhe
leader in that field of enterprise) took
personal direction of the affair. A
vice admiral volunteered his services
as commander Of the ship and the
necessary sum Of money, $4,000, was
brought together.
At that point the commission which
intended to charter the Austrian liner
'Ihalia' informed in Amsterdam ad-
dressed itself to the governments Of
the different warning nations and ask
cd their permission to equip and main
tain such ship under the neutral
Dutch flag and under a Dutch COM
mander. Article three of the Conven-
uon OF Geneva declares however that
all hospital ships even if. they are
owned and equipped by neutrals must
ny the flag Of one of the belligerents"
The Dutch commission requested that
under the special circumstances of
this war, the nations would agree to
suspend this article for the Dutch
noating ambulance. The Minister of
Foreign Affairs who got interested in
the plan supported this request per-
sonally.
Tne governments Of the nations to
which the offer was made have not
oeen willing to agree to the suspen-
SION OF Article in the case of the
Ihalia and have refused to have any
thlng to do with the proposal. The
commission therefore has returned the
money to the donors and the hospital
snip lies at its dock in Amsterdam.

WILLIAM wins the
FREE FOR ALL At
Detroit RACING

Detroit, Aug. 1.--William showed his
superiority over all other pacing
champions Saturday afternoon by
outlasting and outgaming his field
and winning the $4,000 free-for all,
two heats out Of three. This event,
which brought together the most
famous PAGERS in the world. was the
race of greatest interest for the final
day of the Grand Circuit week.
Races Spectacular
Only a little less spectacular was
the 203 pace. which went four heats,
while the 2.l2 trot, with five. also was
a splendid performance. The other
two races were won in straight heats.
The gray warrior. Earl Jr, with
Cox up, was favorite for the 203 pace
and when he beat Peter Stevens in
the first heat it looked that Cox was
going to win his second race of the
day. Braden Direct, however. was by
far the best in the next three.
The horses were shipped to kalama =

there on Monday.

|, elapsed in which the government had
time to make more thorough prepara-
tons and adopt special measure. A
certain quantity Of coco-bacili was i'm.
ported by the ministry Of public works
which was cultivated in the national
laboratory and held in readiness. AL
most all signs OF the danger seemed
to have disappeared, when about the
middle of May one horde after another
! invaded Costa Rican territory on the
Nicaraguan border.
No locusts had visited this country
for 81 years and therefore the panic
amongst the inhabitants was unpre-
cedented. The daily newspapers pub
lished columns and columns of reports
on the advance of the plague; the gov
eminent sent experts with thorough
equipment to fight the invasion and
| congress enacted special law by
which every citizen was forced to pay
| a special and direct tax for covering
the expenses of exterfninating 1t.
TIE swarms were numerous of huge
proportions. Everybody, without ex-
ception, helped in one way or another
to destroy the insect. Private sub
scriptions were raised and in many
towns invaded the women ana children
turned out with torches, lamps and
other implements to aid in its arihil-
alton
non. trains Of gunpowder. asphyxiat-
ing gases and rockets were all used
with more or less success, 1t was
thought by the government ofacials
that had it not been for the appearance
of disease among the swarms, the Coco
bacii would have undoubtedly proved
the most efficient means Of getting rid
Of the pest. This disease killed the
locusts by millions. 1t consisted in the
development of a worm in the stomach
of the insect. which gradually in
creased in size until the insect was
unable to fly and fell dead to the
; ground. The disease seemed to he
| highly infectious amongst the swarms
which quickly succumbed. The plague
has now completely disappeared
Luckily the invasion took place lust
after the planting season was over
! The plants were still young and il
was noted all over the country that
instead Of injurirg the cultivation. this
unexpected pruning seemed greatly to
improve the conditions of the plants
phenomenon, which. it is suggested
here, should be studied by the depart
ment of agriculture at WASHINGTON.
Another curious thing was that the in
sect did NOT touch coffee or susar-cane.
combining itself chiefly to corn and bean
civilizations.
! The plague has in fact greatly con-
/ tributed to boost agricultural inter-
ests. The coming coffee crop will ex,
coed by far those Of all previous years,
it is estimated; the grain crop will be
thrice as large and is expected to find
| ready market in the neighboring
countries.

OFFICIAL REPORT OF naval.
BATTLE FOUGHT NOV. 1854
OFF BAY OF ARANC0, chill

tAssociated Press Correspondence
Berlin, July 14.-Full eight months
late, as an echo of the days when
portions Of the German fleet were
Stl!I abroad on the high seas. and
naval battles were not the rare oc-
currence they are today, the report OF
Vice Admiral Count Spec, commander
of the cruiser squadron of which the
Inflated Scharnhorst and Gneisenau
were part, concerning the battle
between the Germans and the Eng
lish off the Bay Of Arauco Chilli. near
Coronel, has reached the Admiralty.
The naval engagement, in which
three English cruisers and an aux
Hilary cruiser, and two German cruis-
ers and three smaller vessels, took
part, occurred on Nov. /. 1914. Vice
Admiral Specs account was written
on November 8. How it has taken
eight months for it to reach Ger
many. where it has been in the long
intervening months. may never be
made known.
One by one the German ships, the
Scharnhorst. the Gneisenau, the
Nuremberg, the Leipzig, and the Ores
den. have met their fate. Admiral
Specs report Of the battle off Coronel
indicates however that they rendered
good account of themselves first.
His formal and precise story, with
the careful inclusion OF the exact time
cf firing, the distance between the
squa drons, and other details, is how
ever by no means lacking in genuine
thrills as he categorically described
the engagement
1t is impossible to read it without
thrill Of excitement as he tells of the
two lines OF manoeuvring vessels, the
approaching darkness, the unsuccess-
full and successful attempts to torpedo
the ships of the enemy. and the final
capsizing of one English battleship
under the faint light of the moon.
Following is Vice Admiral Specs
report in full:
The squadrons under my COM
mand. consisting of the large cruisers
and Gneisenau and the
small cruisers Dresden, Neurnberg
and Leipzig, steamed on the first of
November about 20 miles from the
Chill coast. at IL mile rate, toward
the south, in order to catch an Eng
iish cruiser which. according to re-
liable information, had anchored off
Coronel the night before. On the way
several smaller cruisers were de-
tached from the squadron to look for
steamers and sailing YES
sells.
"At AIS in the afternoon. bent on
such a mission, the Nuremberg was
out of sight to the northeast. and the
Dresden was approximately IL miles
70 the rear. With the rest Of the
squadron / stood about 40 miles to the
northeast of the Bay of Arauco.
AT All there were sighted in the
West and to the South, two vessels,
and at 4.25 third, about Is miles
distant from US. Two were finally
as war ships. probably the
and the Glasgow. while
the third probably was the auxiliary
cruiser Otranto. They seemed to be
taking a southerly course. My
squadron pursued them WITH all pos
,ible sspeed. keeping them about four
