WORKS right ON
WHEN SUSPENDED

Detective Alfred F. Ocampo, Filipi-
no interpreter in Capt McDuffie' s
department, is temporarily a private
citizen. Officially he has no police
power: unofficially he is still assist

Ocampo has baAD suspended from the
department pending an Investigation

Japanese girl With whom the Filipino
is said 10 have been found in a local
rocming house about > O'Clock in the
morning few DAYS ago.
On January ; Sheriff Rose was ask
he proposed TO do in the Ocampo mat.
ter At that time the sheriff'S reply
was to the effect that he would prob
ably do nothing as there was moth
ing in particular to do. According
to the sheriff's story now, Ocampo
must have then been suspended three
days unless an order dated back to
January /. 70 this the sheriff does
not commit himself He simply states,
he has been suspended since the
first of the year"
McDulIle nad previously stated lhaI
he had offered the girls mother to
prosecute Ocampo and had been inn
plored not to do 50 whereupon he
dropped the case. Although the chief
SAYS 0eampo's badge has been in his
office since New Years to all intents
and purposes the Filipino detective
was still doing his customary duties.
In explanation of this the chief said:
'Oeampo voluntarily offered to as
sist me in my Filipino work even aft
er | had removed his badge and as
he is the only one of his kind that
l can trust | naturally was glad to
accept his proffered services"
The sheriff says ne ,wilr shortly
make a personal investigation of the.
whole affair to determine whether he
shall remove the suspension or make
it an expulsion.
In the meantime the sheriff says
Ocampo may take his case to the civil
service and police commissioners al
though there is no official record of
his having done so yet. -. III.

Enthusiastic over his trip TO Kilau

against him for not answering jury

arrested and he did not want the rec.
ord spoiled at this late date.
His absence from the jury was
quickly explained He had telephon-
ed the clerk, he said, that he was
going to Iiilo last Saturday. but ap-
parcntly the message went astray.
and the action of yesterday followed.

launched into a vivid description of
his trip. He landed the excellent man

the trips. praised the hotel accom-
mcdations at the volcano and espe-
cially the courtesy of the servants.
and ended with a glowing account of
the sights at the crater.
The afternoon Of his arrival at the
Volcano House, which he says is being
repaired and renovated throughout.
he walked over to the volcano. dis
lance Of three miles. He claims that
walking is the only proper way to
see the wonders OF the place. At the
time of his arrival the lava was from
ITO to 100 feet from the surface and in
constant motion. $50 rapid were the
changes of the lava" he said. that
it was worse than a three-ringed cir
Gus to keep track of them. I talked
with Henry Renton and he said he had
never seen the volcano so active"
Bockus also said that at the sui
phur banks and even at the Volcano
House steam was constantly rising
from crevices. Professor Perret's
cone is also active, repeatedly throw
ing out lava.
On the last day he climbed Viva
