INSPECTION OF STORES
SHOWS CONDITIONS TO
BE GROWING BETTER

Food Commissioner A W. Hansen
and Deputy Food Commissioner NJ. B.
Bairos inspected several stores in Ho-
nolulu yesterday, among which were
X Hamamura's. Wo Chung & Co.'S
and All Leong's. all grocery stores.
All Leong had been inspected before
and conditions were somewhat improv-
ed, although some alterations still
have to be made
During the inspection of the stores
the following food-stuffs were con-
demned and destroyed: Fifty pounds
of dried fish, Is pounds of dried bread
stuff and 10 tins of canned goods.
The latter were destroyed on account
of being 'swells.
The commissioners state that the
meat firms are falling into line with
the requirements of the law with re-
gard to stating the contents of their
sausages. The small firms have also
adopted this idea ana with each Of
their packages the following note is
placed: These sausages contain sau-
sage cereal, water and are artificially
colored"
The commissioners are continuing
their inspection and hope that in a
short time all the stores in the city
will be ina sanitary condition.

ANGLERS WHO KNOW
ALL THE BIG FISH

Mr.. Horace Hutchinson, the we'll
known writer on angling and golf
says that trout that has been hooked
and got away quickly will very soon
be feeding again. One that has to
fight hard before getting away may
not rise for several days, and quite
possibly may feed sulkily below the
surface for the whole of the remainder
of the season. Persons unacquain-
ted with the ways of fish and river
side folk may ask how the doings of a
trout are to be known so infinitely
that one may speak of them with so
much confidence The answer is that
the angler or the river keeper, who
knows the water by daily observation,
is aware of all the more important
fish in it, their stations for feeding,
and so forth If one of his old familiar
friends is absent, even for day or
two. he begins to ask the reason why.
So it is that il a big trout changes his
habits or his station, the man who
knows the river will soon find out"

Chinese newspapers charge that Japa-

to insure employers against violation
of law and results of "willful acts"
was issued by the state insurance SUI

of much bitter controversy. 1t finally
resulted in the industrial commission

score of custer suits were instituted
to prevent the exercise of power seem
ingly conferred by the license.

VIENNA IS ASKED TO EXPLAIN
American Tank Steamer PetroIite Was
Fired Upon and Food Taken
by Submarine.

Washington, Feb. 12.-Secretary
Lansing announced on Thursday that
he had sent to the Austro-Hungarian
government through Ambassador Pen
field dispatch asking for an investi-
cation and an explanation of the at
tack by an Austrian submarine on the
American tank steamer Petrolite.
The secretary's dispatch called at
tention to affidavits from members of
the crew of the Petrolite and to infor-
nation from other sources to the effect
that the ship was stopped in the Med
iterranean near Alexandria by an Aus
trian submarine, which fired upon it
and wounded one man who was in the
engine room. The submarine COM
mander asked for food, which Captain
Thompson of the Petrolite refused. A
boarding party was then sent to the
American ship and one American mem
ber of her crew removed. He was
held as hostage while the Austrians
took the food they required from the
Petrolite's stores.

LUSITANIA CASE ENDS
U. s. ACCEPTS GERMANY'S NOTE
WITHOUT WORD ILLEGAL"
Decision to Accept Berlin Declaration
Made at Conference Held by
Wilson and Lansing.

Washington, Feb. 10.-The contro-
versy between the United States and
Germany over the destruction OF the
British liner Lusitania with the loss of
lis American lives is settled.
Thus is passing into history an in
c1dent which at the time of its occur
renee threatened to embroil the United
States in the great world war and
which since has brought the country
on several OCCASION perilously close
to hostilities.
President Wilson and his cabinet re-
garded the settlement effected as fully
meeting the original demands of the
United States. These demands were
set forth in note dated May 13 last,
Immediately after the Lusitania was
sent t. the bottom of the sea. They
were:
l. Disavowal of the act of the SUBJ
marine commander.
2. Reparation in the form of an in
demnity.
8. Immediate steps to prevent the
recurrence of such incidents.
Here in effect is what the kaiser S
government is ready to say and what
the United States has accepted in lieu
of disavowal:
The destruction of the Lusitania
was a retaliatory act and Germany is
prepared to pay an indemnity for the
| American lives lost"
The decision to accept the German
declaration was made at a conference
on Tuesday between the president and
Secretary Lansing Later the cabinet
ratified the decision.

Bureau Aids Small Borrowers.

Since the state salary loan bureals
started four months ago more than
5000 accounts with workingmen bor-
roWers have been changed by the bu-
reau to save Illegal interest payments,
according to report received by SUI
perintendent Hall, of the state bank
ing department from Wilbur E. King
director of the loan bureau. Other ac-
complishments of the bureau reported
Were: Hundreds of weekly complaints
from borrowers forced to repay many
times small sums borrowed investi-
gated and loan agents forced to cease
harrassing methods. Thousands of
dollars in exorbitant charges saved to
the borrowers. Licenses issued to all
loan companies or branches of syn.
dicates. More than 20 quit business
went into effect. They could make
better profit in other states where
laws are less strict, it is said. The
Lloyd law limits interest to 8 per cent
month on chattel and salary loans.
Most loan company managers CO.
operate with the state bureaus to en-
force the law and lift their business
out of the SHARK" class Consequent
ly, few prosecutions have been urged
by the bureau. Loan records of all
agencies are open to examination by
the state bureau. Apparently the
most prevalent surviving abuse of the
small loan system is making no allow
ance in interest charges for periodical
partial payments made before the en-
tire amount becomes due. Between
5000 and 5000 accounts of this nature
have been ordered corrected to give
credit to the borrower.
