 Good Showing
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

SAN DIEGO, Cal, Feb. 27.-What is declared to be a worlds record for accurate and rapid fire gunnery was made by gunners of the armored cruiser San Diego at elementary tar get practice Friday. The gun crew of number II siX-inch gun scored eight perfect hits out of eight shots in 72 seconds, firing at a range of 1900 yards. The crew of number II thrce-inc gun scored the same num- Der of bullsyes in as many attempts in 4S seconds, the range being 1900 yards. Both records were made at night, the pointers picking up the target after it had been illuminated with searchlights.
 Officers of the Pacific fleet flag ship are confident they will be able to retain the Spokane trophy for 1915-1916 which was awarded to this vessel for excellency in gunnery for 1914-1915.
 In big gun shooting the San Diego did not equal her record of last year. The forward turret crew. scored nine hits out of twelve shots with the eight inch guns and the after turret, eight hits out of the same number of shots. This shooting was done in daylight.

WASHINGTON, Feb 27.-Legisla- tive business will be resumed in reg uIar order at the capitol this week af- ter the recent furry over international affairs that demoralized the work of congress. In both houses administra- tion leaders have held in control the threatened revolt against the president on the armed ship issue and no further outburst is expected unless there should be a development apparently leading toward war.
 Leaders of the agitation for action to warn Americans off belligerent mer- chantmen carrying arms admit there is no chance to get legislation from the subject Senator Gore, author of the warning resolution in the senate, has publicly declared that there is no de- sire to stay the hand of the president in diplocatic negotiations. He also says the real purpose of his resolution had been accomplished and this is regarded by administration leaders practically as an abandonment of the effort to force the issue in either house.

Three Are Arrested in HonO- lulu Charged With Con- spring to Induce Ameri- can Soldiers to Join the British Army
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

HONOLULU, T. H., Feb. 27- Charged with recruiting American soldiers for service in the British army, w. R. Seligsen, alias w. R. Stein; C. D. Randall, alias Henrikson, alias England, and a recently dis charged sergeant of the Fourth United States cavalry named Jeffer- son, were arrested here today by United States Marshal Joseph J. Smiddy.
 Seligsen was charged with being the agent between the runners in the plot and the principals, and Ran dall and Jefferson were arrested as runners. Other arrests will be made, it was announced, of people promi- nent in Honolulu life.
 The three men arrested were taken before United States Commissioner George S Curry and held to answer. Jefferson, who is understood to have entered the conspiracy as the agent of the federal authorities, was releas- ed on his own recognizance. The others were held in jail.
 From documents found on the per sons of the men arrested and in Ran dall's trunk, it was learned that 156 recruits had been secured and that 154 of them had gone to the front. Two others were awaiting the ar rival of the steamer Niagara from Australia for British Columbia.
 Most of the recruits had seen serv- ice. The majority of them were dis charged American soldiers who had purchased their discharges with the help of the alleged conspirators.
 Seligsen was said to have furnished the soldiers with letters offering em- ployment, as required by the army regulations and to have furnished the funds for the purchase of discharges.
 Randall, it is said. told COmmfs sioner Curry all he knew about the plot and it was on information fur nished by Randall that the authori- ties based their prediction of other important arrests. Randall came here several months ago from Wellington N. Z., and Seligsen, or Stein, was q recent arrival who came here he an nounced, to establish a branch of 8 New York dressmaking company
