JAP ANESE GIRL
RELEASED Will
Go With FATHER

Through the efforts of Circuit Judge
Ashford and DR.. John w. Wadman,
little Japanese girl, who has been liy-
ing at the Susannah Wesley Home in
King street, has been remanded to the
custody of her parents.
Sending the little girl home recalls
to the minds of circuit court officials
and other persons who have been fol-
lowing court proceedings, the case OF
two Japanese and a Chinese who were
recently tried before Judge Ashford
on a statutory charge. The two Jap
anese were convicted and sentenced
to each serve nine years at hard la
Dor in Oahu prison. The Chinese. who
gave some testimony for the prosecu-
ton, was given a suspended sentence.
According to testimony given during
the trial. it appears that the Japanese
had made a tour of the other islands,
visiting fellow countrymen. They rep
resented themselves as school teach
ers, saying that they we're conducting
in Honolulu a school for Japanese
girls. and asking the Japanese whom
they interviewed to send their daugn-
tiers to the school.
AS a result, it is alleged that five
young Japanese girls arrived in Ho-
nolulu and we're met by the Japanese,
who later we're sent to prison. Ac'
cording to an officer in Judge Ash
ford's court, it was the idea of the
Japanese to lead the girls into a lie
of shame, and that one of them con-
sequently was assaulted.
The Japanese were finally appre-
banded and the five girls sent to the
Susannah Wesley Home.
Doctor Wadman and Judge Ashford
discussed the case yesterday with two
Japanese clergymen from Wailuku,
Maui, and the father of the girl who
was released This morning Judge
Ashford issued Juvenile court order
remanding the girl to the custody OF
her father.

"Safety First' Letter Being

Details of the Chamber Of Commerce
Safety First campaign probably will
not be given the local public until sew

Secretary Raymond c.. Brown. The
circular letter which is to be sent to
every newspaper published in Honolu-

not yet been completed by Mr.. Brown,
and before it is made public 1t Will
be submitted to the chamber for ap-

The letter win be frank warning
to parents not to allow their children
to play in the streets. 1t will be given
the fullest publicity in Honolulu. Eng

asked to publish it. -. ..--a...>
1t points out that in many cases OF
accident the burden of responsibility
is not on the driver of the vehicle, but
on the person who is injured. In
large number of cases, the letter de-
clares, persons are injured, and often
die, as a result of their own careless
ness. 1t points out that operators OF
machines often are injured because
they have become so proficient IN
handling the machine that they grow
careless. ..... ...: -. g..
The letter cites, as an example, the

There is also cited a game Whlcn

AS an automobile approaches, they
run across the street directly in front
of the machine. The one who passes
the closest to the machine without get

Attention is called by the letter to
the fact that when an accident oc-

Behold the little cousin OF the slit

need dread the morning ordeal Of shoe
lacing. The fas.enings Of this latest
type OF footwear do not go up the in

the floor and run the risk OF apoplexy

partures lace up the side, so that the
aforesaid stout person may cross one
ankle over the other knee and adjust
MS footgear without pain or profanity.
Take it from the manufacturer. these
shoes are vastly superior in every way
10 the obsolete styles which all but our
most advanced people still wear. Not
only is the trouble of putting them on
reduced to minimum, but they nj
better, give the ankle freer play and
retain their original shape much longer
The shoelsce has held the centre Of the

1t will from this day forth become more
and more of a side issue.

SUSPECT DEPUTIES
IN NEW INDICTMENTS

Jury's II Extra Cases Con-

New Brunswick, y. j., Feb. ll.-Sev-
enteen more indictments were handed
down by the grand jury to-day.
Whether any Of them were against per-
sens concerned in the recent shootings
at Roosevelt Prosecutor Florance would
not say. He was asked IL any of the
oL.cials of the village Of Roosevelt or
OF MiddleseX had been indicted and he
replied they had not. He refused to
ss. whether any OF the officials in the
plants in Roosevelt had been indicted.
The prosecutor expected to have the
indicted persons in court tonight. but
the grand jury completed its session
so late that this move was found to be
impossible. Rumor about the Court
house had il that some Of the indict-
ments were for minor offences, but the
report that two counts for murder had
been found was general.
Twenty-Five Of the twenty-six depu-
ties who have been indicted were in
court to-day and pleaded not guilty.
The other has not been arrested. Their
counsel, Joseph Stricken, said that he
might move later to Guash all the in
dictments, two for murder and sixteen
for assault, on the ground that mem

FOR REPUBLICANS
Whitman Speaks to Hun

Predicts Success.

The most punctilious neutral could
have found nothing to object to at the
Hungarian Republican Clubs dinner
last night at Delmonico's. Not even a
Hungarian flag appeared in the decora-
tions, and the speechmaking was con-
fined wholly to political issues within
the borders Of the United States.
Governor Whitman had to hurry
away to the 7th Regiment Armory, so
he was first on the list OF speakers. lie
thanked the members for their support
Other speakers expected were United
States Senators Borah, Smoot and Cum
minis. but the ship purchase bill kept
them in Washington. Nevertheless, SEN
ator Borah's letter of regret served as
the principal speech of the evening.

are questions broad enough and SUI
ficiently tremendous to weld together

that we will endeavor in good faith to

lated subject bearing on Anglo-Ameri-
can relations.
Many suggestions have been re-
ceived, among them. Of course, being
ideas for memorials in churches in
America and England. This plan is
not advocated here, for there will be
a memorial to Lord Roberts in St.

elsewhere in London.
The subcommittee, as was explained
TO The Tribune by Harry (. Britain.
chairman of the Pilgrims of Great
Britain, was much touched by the cable

wishing TO cooperate with them, and
naturally is anxious TO decide on a
proposal acceptable to their American
colleagues. They are doing all that Is

CROKER, MURPHY, WILDS
They All Help Make Ex-sa
chem's Honeymoon Happy.
fRn Telegraph to The Tribune.

Palm Beach, Fla, Feb. 1l.-Richard
Croker and his bride, who have been
sticking close to the Wigwam, the
Croker estate, on an island five miles
south of Palm Beach, were here to-day
calling on Father Brandt, Of st. Agnes's
Church, New York, who performed
their marriage. The old Tammany
chieftain has grown stouter about the
face and much younger looking, being
SO changed with that and the shaving
of his beard that few Of his friends
recognized him at first glance.
Hearing that Charles Murphy had
said at Hot Springs, the day his com
ing marriage was announced, that he
wished him happiness, Mr.. Croker ex-
claimed: "He did, did he!" Then he
said he was out Of politics, and the
only statement he had to make was
that his wife was a mighty fine shot
with a rife, and had already shot three
wildcats this season from his front
piazza.
"My," said he, "she certainly is fine.
She is a great young woman, and his
face beamed.
