today.
No arrests were made in the case
yesterday because, according to the

an arrest.

INVESTIGATION NEEDED.

Charges of brutality against two members of the
Honolulu police force, Henry Daniels and Ed Ross,
are made by army authorities with such circum-
stantial force that nothing but the most thorough
investigation is allowable ~.
The charges have been sifted by the regmental
commander of the two soldiers said to have been
terribly beaten by the police; sifted by the post
commander at Schofied, and referred to the civil
service commission by Commanding General Strong
of the Hawaiian Department, whose statement
shows that the charges are not mere drunken accu-
sations. ~ e.. ---.
If true-and the truth or falsity can easily be es-
tablished by the civil service commissioning two
policemen should be not dshonorably dismissed but
prosecuted for malicious assault If not true they
should be cleared at once. s-s
This is not an isolated case of alleged brutality.
1t involves the entire subject of the relations be-
tween the army and the Honolulu police force, for
evidently the police officials have known of the
fracas for week two without any public investi
CATION of their own and if the charges are substan-
tiatedson the wtness-stand, it will make out case
not only against two policemen, but against the
police administration.

many. The new Austrian ruler is by no means so
willing to accept Germanys political and military
leadership as was the failing old Emperor Franz
Josef Doubtless Austria clearly the inevitable
end of the present war and is loath to add to her
enemies. But the only hope of advantageous peace
terms is for the Central Powers to hang together
and hold their present lines far as possible make
their defeats as costly as possible to the enemy.
From the beginning Of the European strife, Austria
has been doing Germanys will and obedience to such

The soldier leaned forward in his seat,
his elbows on his knees The boy stood
in front of him. Just a foot or So away.
The dog completed the group. They were
waiting for the time when the man should
leave, bound somewhere under orders.
Now and then the man made some re-

but said no more There had crept into
his eyes a faraway look and he was seeing
in big distances. The dog sat there, immo

a WORD TO the Engineer.

a few years ago Colonel George Har-
vey addressed circular letter to the
railroad presidents of the country, ask
ing for little information. He wanted
to know why American trains could not
be started and stopped as gently as
European ones. In England, as Arnold
Bennett has told US, trains come to a
.standstill in the station "like dove
alighting on the shoulder of beauti-
full girl. Our trains run smoothly
enough after they get started but what
a series of jerks are involved in TIE
processl And when a fast train is an
preaching a terminal passengers have
learned by experience not to stand in
the aisle, but to remain braced in their
seats for the inevitable shock of stop
ping. Colonel Harvey interrogation
was ignored by all except one railroad
executive, whose reply was simply an
exhibition Of bad temper, shedding more
heat than light on the subject.
But perhaps the Colonel's missionary
work is beginning at last to bear fruit
! At any rate it is interesting to find the
president of the Baltimore & Ohio rail
road, addressing the officers of the com
pany the other day at their annual meet
ing at Deer Park, calling attention t
this same question. sin theory he
remarked, "our passenger engineers arc
expected to start their trains so easily
that you only know the train has start

moving by. That is very high stand

another ideal that can be attained; they
should stop the train so easily that yol
