Brakeman Forgets to Turn
Switch and is Caught in
Collision With Engine

William Hau, Kalihi, head brake
man on the o. r. & l. freight train
that leaves Honolulu at midnight, was
instantly killed this morning at 4
o'clock at the Dole siding near Leile-
hua when his head was smashed be-
tween the engine and freight cars fol-
lowing his failure to turn the switch
which would have sent the engine
along another track.
AS usual the train stopped on the
ENTHUSIASTICALLY branch Of the tracks
running near the Dole siding. The
engine was uncoupled by Hau and
went back on the main track before
it could be switched off onto the Wa
hiawa branch.
Hau evidently forgot to turn the
switch, for when the engine started
back on the main track to take the
Wahiawa branch it followed the path
back to the train from which it was
uncoupled, and Hau, who had jumped
onto the head Of the train and had
given the signal for the train to come
ahead, was caught in the collision. TWO
box cars were capsized in the clash.
sion.
las far as can be ascertained the
matter was purely an accident" said
George P. Denison, general manager of
the Oahu Railway l. Land Company,
this morning.
Hau was 33 years old, and a native
of Maui He had been in the employ
of the railroad since 1912, and was
in line for a higher position as soon
as his English became more fluent.
He leaves a wife and a child.
A thorough investigation Of the case
is being made by the public utilities
commission and the railroad. The in,
quest will be next Wednesday.

Comparison Of sugar prices this
month to date, as against July of last
year, shows in q graphic manner how
Fmuch better money the Hawaiian
sugar crop now en- route to New York
10 bringing than It was q year ago
/ this week,
The high price record was broken
again this week hen quotations on
q Hawaiian basis shot up on Wed.
nesday to 6.5S5 cents, passing the
best previous record for July to date,
which was 6.55 cents.
From the first OF this month. quo.
tations have been as follows:
July 2, SGT; July s, $40; July 6,
6.2S; July 8, 6.2S; July 10, 6.23; July
IL, $685.; July IL, $40; July 13, 6.455;
July 16, 6.52; July II, 6.57; July Is,
| 6.5S5.
This shows that the increase in
sugar prices this month first began
on July 8, when the quotation jumped
from 6.23 to 6.2S. It fell back the
next day, July 10, to 6.23, but began
rising again July IL, going up to
S.325. From that DAY on it has con.
tinued to increase, until on Wednes-
day It scared to 6.5S5 cents, setting
new record for the 1917 crop to
date.
Comparing the recent record break
ing prices with those which obtained
In July last year shows graphically
how much better prices are today
than In July, 1916. The figures for
July last year ran as follows:
July 6, 6.27; July 10, $40; July IS,
6.145; July 19, SGT; July 81, 633.
July "a, 6.27; July %, 6.145; July
81, 6.27.
In other words, the quotation on
Wednesday Of this week, 6.585, or
$13l-7o q ton, is .1S5 of a cent, or
1910 ton. above the highest price
obtained In July Of last year, which
was $40 on July 10, 1916.

TO the President than probably any
other man, Colonel House had, before
the entry Of this country into the war,

and conferred with their statesmen as

might follow the war. He will carry

the personal representative of the most
powerful ruler of any of the Entente

not be an orator a. the conference.

will bring back TO the President sn

SAVANNAH. Nov 7.-An unnatural
lied German coming within the full
meaning of the alien enemy act was
found to-day In active charge Of the
Terry shipbuilding plant. where ves-
sells are being built under government
supervision.
Agents of the Department of Justice
found the man. He is Conrad Mohaupt
His permit from the United States gov
ernment showed he belonged in Brook
lyn. Mohaupt was at the plant above
the city. A searching investigation is
now under way to ascertain by what
means an enemy alien was enabled not
only to move so far down the Atlantic
seaboard, but 20 be actually supervising
the work Of building vessels with which
the United States plans TO ship pro-
visions and supplies TO Europe.
Mohaupt said he was a carpenter by
trade, that he had been out Of en-
ployment in Brooklyn, and accepted
work at the Savannah plant, when it
was offered TO him by an agent OF the
Terry people. he made no effort to ex-
plain his failure 20 ask permission from

their money as we'll TO strengthen the
government in this great war for Amer
ica's rights and world democracy"
In explanation of the reasons for not
acceptine the full amount Of subscrlp-
tions, Secretary McAdoo declared the
government as a matter OF policy must
abide by announcement Of plans Tor the
second Liberty Loan, made OCTOBER l.
as follows:
"The Secretary Of the Treasury IN
vites subscriptions. at par and accrued
interest, from the people of the United
States, for s3,O00,0O0,o 900 of United
States of America ten-twenty-hye

of an issue authorized by act OF Con-
gress approved September "a, 1917; the
right being reserved to allot additional
bonds up to one-half the amount of any
oyersubscription."
The Secretary added:
"The government must never after
the basis upon which it offers an issue
of bonds after subscriptions are closed:
Having announced that only one-hslf OF
the oversubscription would be accepted,
the government must, of course, falth"
fully observe that basis.
"Whenever loans are offered TO the
public, the banks and the public adjust
themselves both consciously and un-
consciously TO the basis of the offering,
and it would be extremely unwise to
alter that basis after the subscriptions
Rave been received
