Will Not Clean Up

Because Hackfeld G. Company re-
fuse to be considered further as
agents for the German merchantmen
in Honolulu harbor, and have so in
formed the health board in letter
signed by F. w. Klebahn of the
shipping department, territorial sani-
tary inspectors with a dozen men

Pratt today declined to discuss the
matter of who will pay the bill, but
referred to the order of yesterday
and told an interviewer to draw his
own inferences.
"The letter from Mr.. Klebahn tells
u.s." said DR.. Pratt, that the United
States officials took charge of the
boats on February 4; that at the time
they were not insanitary, and II they
have since become so it is due to no
fault of theirs. 1t is practically a
The sentiment expressed in this
letter is similar to that in q letter
sent on Wednesday to the harbor
board.
Mere fiction! This is the way in
which District Attorney S. c.. Huber
today characterized the claim that
the vessels are under control of the
United States.
They are not now controlled by
us and never have been, said Attor
ney Huber, save for such police
control as was deemed necessary to
safeguard the harbor from their sink
ing or blowing up"
Deputy Attorney General Arthur
G. Smith, who has advised both the
harbor board and the board of health
since the question came up, agreed
fully with Attorney Huber's opinion.
I'VE as territorial officials are pro-
federal office" says Smith. "0ur
orders to clean the ships up yester-
day were given in that attitude" :,
Sanitary Engineer S. w. Tay and
Chief Inspector c. Charlock we're in
charge of the force today which
cleaned the vessels. The Prinz Wal
demar was found in the worst condi-
tion--not the Pommern, as had been
expected. A. w. Hansen, food com
missioner, condemned such decayed
food as was discovered. The refuse
was covered with lime and carted
