SALOONS HERE
NOT TOUCHED BY
U.S.. BOOZE RULE
Federal Attorney Says He Has
No Instructions to Put
Order Into Effect

Under the executive order Of Presi.
dent Wilson establishing smile zones
within which no liquor may be sold,
saloons in Honolulu cannot be closed,
at least not at the present time, &C
cording to the manner in which the or
der IS interpreted by District AttOr-
ney S. c. Huber.
Il have had no instructions to put
this order into effect here says the
district attorney, although it is in
effect as a law and is supposed to
be in force"
Attorney Huber is Of the opinion
that ) saloons in Honolulu cannot be
closed unless the words military
camp" in the order are construed so
as to include forts and other govern
ment works. Should this Construc-
ton be placed on the words, all Homo
lulu saloons would close. But they
cannot be closed at present, he adds,
as none of them comes within half
a mile Of any military camp.
But he points out that if, for ex-
ample, the military AUTHORITIES were
to establish military camps" in the
palace grounds and in Aala park, prac-
tically every saloon in Honolulu would
have to close up, as probably all sa
looms are within half a mile of these
two places. The half-mile limit pro-
vlso would apply in this instance for
the reason that the camps would be
within the incorporated city of Homo.
lulu
Because Of the fact that the entire
island of Oahu constitutes the incor.
porated city and county of Honolulu
only that provision of the order es-
tablishing the half-mile limit where
military camps" forts and other gov
eminent works are within the limits
of an incorporated city probably ap.
plies here now, he thinks.

nina crew who were drawn in the
military draft one is Homo
lulu youth who was born and raised
here. He is w. w. OBrien. who has
been a junior engineer on the Wilhel-
nina for the past fifteen months.
On registration day in California
the Wilhelmina was in port in San
Francisco and he registered there in
stead of waiting to register in Homo
Lulu when he returned to San Fran
cisco on the last voyage he learned
that his number was among those
first drawn and he reported for the
physical examination which he passed.
Others of the Wilhelmina crew
drafted were J. Marmion, quarter
master; F. Baldwin, engine wiper,
aud f. Wood, steward. Still another

SHIPPERS
Tongue SEALED

With a long passenger list of per-
sons engaged almost entirely in COM
mercial pursuits, the Dutch liner
Princes Juliana arrived in Honolulu
this morning from San Francisco. 1t
will leave for the Orient and Java
this afternoon at $50 o'clock.
There we're 129 first-class passen-
gers, 1913 second-class passengers on
the boat, and only Is steerage pas
sengers. The boat carried about 5000
tons of general freight. All of this is
consigned to the Orient.
Retcent in talking to anyone who
bears the resemblance of a news
paperman, Commander J. R. Brouwers
explained that he got into consider
able trouble because of a news story
which was gathered from his ship
not long ago. While in San Francisco
his attention was called to the news,
which had been obtained off the boat,
and he was advised not to give out
any more information of that char
acter. Now no one in the crew is
allowed to say anything whatever Of
the trip or the people on the ship.
Commander Brouwers explained
that a story was circulated that his
ship had been laying mines and also
that they had seen mines in the south
seas. While he exploited the former
story as nonsense and neither de-
MED nor confirmed the second, he
stated in the future any information
that he had about mines would not
be generally given out.
NJ. P. Shaeffed, purser, said that
they had lost several boys of their
crew in San Francisco, giving as the
reason, that the men were lured into
leaving by the high wages offered on
the mainland. However, he said, they
did not understand that things in
America cost that much more money.
From San Francisco down the trip
was reported as very smooth.

HILO, Aug. 16.-Willie Hurst, son
Of Mrs. David Hurst Of this city, and
for whom much anxiety has been felt
as to his safety, has written his par
ents from France, telling Of his good
fortune in again escaping from a tor
pedOed vessel.
My second and last experience"
says the young man, was on the
night of July 10th, when just as we
were coming to stop for the purpose
of dropping anchor, and directly in
the mouth of the channel, the ship
was struck by torpedo. Having had
former experience on the Column
bian, l was rather prepared for emer-
gency, and lost no time in getting into
some sort of lifeboat and making
for shore, which proved to be France
The vessel was the kansan, and
sank in II minutes after she was
struck, four men going down with
her. The excitement was soon over
since the sinking of freighters no
longer gives rise to very much interest
to others than those directly con-
cerned. l am we'll and safe for the
time being and will probably ship
again at the first opportunity, as l
have a feeling that l am possessed
with a sort of charmed life"
Hurst is an oiler, having left here
on an American-Hawaiian steamer
shortly after the beginning of the
| European hostilities. He is a typical
American, having the laundering for
adventure that distinguishes the
American sailor or soldier from all
