BRITISH TR0oPSHIP
SUNK; ALL SAVED

ASSOCIATED Press by q. S, Naval Wireless.)
LONDON, England May 2.-The
British liner Ballarat of 7055 tens, in
the government service as a transport,
was sunk by a torpedo on April Is,
according to an announcement issued
by the army press bureau yesterday.
The troopship was carrying a contin-
gent of soldiers from the Colonies, but
there was no loss of life nor any in
juries to any of the soldiers or mem
bers Of the crew.
The officers and troopers aboard the
big transport had assembled for a
memorial service in honor Of the men
of Australia and New Zealand who
had fallen two years ago during the
landing of the British forces on CALI
poll, April 25 being set aside as An
FAC Day. The memorial services had
just commenced when the submarine
attack was made, the torpedo striking
near the propeller.
Following the first excitement at the
explosion, the troopers quoted down,
perfect order and discipline prevailed
and songs and card games passed the
time while the rescuing boats which
had been wirelesseo for were ap-
preaching The transport floated fer
four hours after being struck, giving
the men plenty of time to- disembark,
with their personal baggage and their
pets. All the mail was safely taken
off the ship.
Complaint is being widely voiced in
opposition circles that the admiralty
is not giving out the actual figures re,
garding the submarine losses. Yes.
terday Lord Charles Beresford, admir-
al and former lord commissioner of
the admiralty, in a speech complained
of the incompleteness. of the official
information given OLt regarding the
submarine losses, which he described
as "appalling."
One of the steamers reported sunk
yesterday by submarines was the Cru,
guayan steamer Gorilla of 1916 tons.
Although plainly marked as a neutral,
she was attacked without warning.
Her crew was rescued without loss Of
life

The legislature has been rubbing

Larsen sided with Logan and the

really to blame for the deficit in the
general fund of the county.
Two years ago the legislature piled
thousands of dollars of expenses onto
us without giving us money to do the
work when they knew that the county

Arnold tried to smooth things over
by declaring that the board should
ray these demands as it had asked
the legislature to give the county part

5. Survey Of Local Situation.
Messrs. MeCarl and Horn have spent
the last five weeks in study OF the
local situation and have arrived at the
conclusion that there Is urgent neces-
2sity2 for immediate organization of
the work in Honolulu, which Is now
the largest military post in the United
States, with practically no organiza-
ton in the city especially devoted to
the. welfare of the soldier.
6. Canvass for Buildings. 1t was at
first though advisable to try and rent
a building and begin in a small way.
A careful canvass, both through
real estate agents and individually
was therefore made, with a view to
lease such a building, resulting in a
demonstration that there is no build
ing in the city adequate for the pur-
pose, which can be leased.
A like canvass has shown that there
are no buildings available for pur-
chase. Neither has any suitable site
sot adequate area, without buildings,
been located.
