The committee feels that the need
of the Armenians is very great and
hence voted to send the money stated
above To our ambassador in Turkey
through the American Red Cross. In
this connection it might be well to
state that the American Red Cross
forwards all funds sent to them for
the relief of European war sufferers,
retaining no part whatever for its
administrative expenses.

1t is probable that not all the facts in the
case Of the German sailors arrested for illicit
liquor selling and let off with suspended SEN
fences have yet come to light. Until the de-
tails are clearer, the Star Bulletin reserves
final opinion But the situation as disclosed
Saturday in police court is not such as to give
confidence in the administration of law in Ho-
nolulu. The city attorneys office states that
without its knowledge the arrests were
planned and the men promised to plead guilty
upon pledge that suspended sentence would
be imposed. 1t will be edifying to know by
what authority the liquor license commissioner
entered into such an agreement. What right
has he to arrange for a. suspension of sentence
before arrests are made and the cases brought
into court

Judge Stuart's proposal for commission
government for Hawaii strikes no popular
chord Some of the details of his plan are
novel. not to say unique, but the plan itself has
been tentatively preached in years past and as
often has been definitely discredited. Hawaii
believes in self government and will continue
so to believe in spite of the Judges sugges
tons As to his statement that his plan would
give greater powers of self-government, it is
quite ingenious but not at all convincing. The
value of Judge Stuart s proposal is that it is
one straw Of many in the wind showing the
absolute necessity of efficiency in our present
forms OF government. neutrality-suspicious.

GRAIN MARKET IS
VERY UNCERTAIN
Wheat Traders See Vast
Possibilities During the
Coming Week.

Chicago, Feb. 26.-After a week of
spectacular unloading in which for
tunes were won and lost in the Chicago
grain pits. wheat traders tonight said
the market was electric with possibili-
ties. Wheat closed today at low mark
for the crop a IA cent drop since last
Saturday for May wheat and a II rs
cent drop for July.
Capture of one Of the Verdun forts,
the fear of a break between the United
States and Germany. the new sub
marine order which may imperil hun
dreds of grain cargoes, heavy estimates
of foreign crops and extreme weakness
of the Winnipeg market and half a
dozen other factors kept the market on
"a nervous edge all week. Wheat drag
ged all other grains down with 1t. Big
traders dumped so much grain on the
market in the last half Of the week that
the price tumbled before they could
realize their profits. May wheat closed
aturday at 1.2719; today at 1.13h.
Comparative figures for July were
1.225s and 1.10A. Mays range for this
week was between 1.27 and 1.1SA.

One of the most emphatic and dis
tinct instances of the war staffs mailed
first working in America is revealed in
the charges maze against Robert Fay
and his associates in their conspiracy
to blow up munition carrying ships. In
statements to the authorities, Fay has
admitted that he came TO this country
from Germany, where he had served
in the trenches in the Champagne dis
trict, to make and operate steel explo :
sive mines which he planned to tie to
the rudder posts of vessels sailing from
Atlantic ports for England and France
Fay,s movements have been checked
up by the secret service, which. with
the help of Captain Thomas ]. Tunney
of the police department, made the arr
rests, and by other authorities. 1t has
been shown that Fay received money
from the head of the intelligence office
in Berlin to make the trip to this coun-
try and to build the mines. More
money was given to him by German
agents in this country. for the $40 gold
certificates found on him when he was
arrested were traced by their numbers
by the secret service through various
banks-a suggestion made by Assistant
United States District Attorney John
c. Knox.
The mines built by Fay and his
brother in law, Walter Scholz. are re-
markably vicious instruments. They
are equipped with most intricate
mechanicism. which was to he worked
