Mr.. Garrison's Attitade.

The fact that the Secretary of War
has asked for an opinion ON the ques-
tion from the highest law officer of the
Government Is taken to mean that Mr..
Garrison supports the negative Of the
proposition.
According TO the officials. the right or
an army officer to resign at will never
has been legally determined Except
in extraordinary cases. such resigna-
tions have usually been accepted IN the
past.
II will ne exceedingly difficult for any
officer To get out Of the army as long as
Mr Garrison is ut the head OF the War
Department. This H. made clenr by a
number OF recent developments in the
War Department.
leIurts have been In circulation Of
late that as a result Of tempting offers
made by private corporations the army
has lost many officers and civilians from
those departments in which the con-
struction OF war equipment Is designed
and executed.
I, has been said that defcctlons on
this account have reached a stage where
the efficiency OF this branch OF the War
Department is menaced According to
Department officials the exact state OF
affairs as pictured IN press reports has
been oVerdrawn. II ls admitted that
many civll employees have quit Gov
ernment arsenals to accept the better
pay that is now offered by private cor
porations.
only a few officers have resigned. but
many others may retire TO enter private

OF the great colony, the big Union
liner Maheno, now in use as hospital
ship, is due to arrive at New Tea
land next Monday, December IL, with
wounded New Zealand volunteers
classified as the ''cot cases" men
crippled for life from wounds receiv'
ed in the European war.
This news was brought to Honolulu
today by Second Officer A. w. Wynn
Williams OF the Canadian-Australasian
liner Makura, which arrived at S:45
this morning from Sydney and way
ports and sailed at 1890 this after.
noon for Vancouver, taking mail and
passengers from here.

hospital ship to bring back the worst
Of the New Zealand volunteers wound.
ed from the war zone. Several trans
ports have brought the slightly wound
ed back to Australia. but she has the
cot cases'-men who are not able to
walk or sit up. Many of them are
invalids and cripples and will be 80
for life. The Maheno was one of our
Union liners before she was comman-
deered with the Mariana for use as
q hospital ship. We have heard moth
ing as to when she will be given
back TO the company for passenger
use again"
Mr.. Wynn-Williams said the Natal
and Moana, two Union line ships, are
now running from San Francisco to
Wellington, New Zealand, only until
the Mariana can return to the San
Francisco-Sydney run. The two re-
naming ships are making the shorter
run in an effort to maintain regular
schedule. Australia passengers are
transferred to New Zealand-Australia
ships of the Union line on arrival at
Wellington.

FILIPINO Who
GOT AWAY FROM
JAIL IS Caught

Trinidad" a Filipino who got away
from the county jail few days ago,
was recaptured yesterday and Is now
again In durance.
Trinidad was arrested several weeks
ago while wearing the clothes Of q
woman and skipped out Of jail. With.
in a day he was back again. He was
a "trusty'' and his escape was easy.
Chin Chun Gum, another ,trusty who
escaped from jail last Saturday, is still
at large. Gum went over the fence
and has not been seen since.
Speaking of the escapes this morn.
ing, Sheriff Charles H. Rose said:
There is nothing sensational about
any escape from jail. Our jails are
not very strongly built, and We are
using the honor system. Once in a
while a man gets away, but We always
get him back"
Sheriff Rose showed q book from
the Oklahoma state penitentiary.
There are about IS names In
there" he said, "of men who have es
capped from the Oklahoma state penf

Comparing that big institution with
our small jail, | do not see any signf
