SHIP IN SAFE
 CHANNEL, SAYS
 SHIPS OFFICER
thssoCiated TreSS)

ROTTERDAM, Mar. Captain Christopher of the Standard Oil ship Healdton, which was sunk off Ter schelling, Holland, Wednesday evening by a German submarine. arrived here tonight with the survivors of the at tack He declares that the vessel was not in the war zone, as defined by the German proclamation issued when the policy of unrestricted sub marine warfare was announced.
 The officer states that the boat had no warning whatever, and al though a lookout was kept. no sub marine was seen before the torpe- does were fired The first torpedo went through a brightly lighted spot on the side of the boa. but missed the cargo compartments. The second torpedo set the oil on fire, and tht flames spread in all directions. Only a part of the life boats were capable of being launched on this account, and it is thought that some of the crew perished in the flames, which were accompanied by a heavy eX- plosion.
 After the three life boats had been successfully lowered into the water and the survivors had embarked in them, one of the boats Capsized, and none of the occupants were seen again. The remaining two boats rowed away from the blazing boat after it was seen there was no chance to rescue any of their unfortunate companions.
 After the submarine had made it's successful attack, it approached close to the ship and remained there after the boats were launched, but made no attempt to aid the survivors to reach land, nor to pick up the occu- pants of the boat that capszed. It remained near the scene for several minutes, then dived from sight and was not seen again.
 Captain Christopher states that the two life boats were in open water for more than twelve hours. When one of the boats reached land one of the survivors, who had been in jured by the explosion on the ship, was dead, and another was so badly injured that there is no chance of his recovery.
 He declares that he had worked out the position of the ship only d few hours before it's destruction, and according to his calculations, which he insists were correct, he was in a safe channel, and even under the restrictions imposed by the German underseas campaign should have been immune from attack by sub marines.

GERMANS HALT
 THEIR RETREAT
(AssocIat ted Press)

LONDON, Mar 23.-That the Ger man retreat before the forces of the allies has been halted, at least tenn porarily, is indicated in dispatches received here from the western bat tlefront tonight. The reports state that stubborn resistance on the part of the Germans to the advances of the allies has been the order of the day at various points along the en- tire front
 The summary of the fighting gives the British forces credit for making progress south of Arras. In dispatch es from Paris it is asserted that the French made an important advance in the St. Quentin region today.

A QUEENS TOILETTE.

Queen Wilhelmina of The Nether- lands is self-willed in most things, and carries her own will to her toilet. She will have nothing to say to perfumed water for her baths, to powder, or even to soap. A daily bath, taken for seven minutes, fol is her Spartan rule; but she is not quite hopeless from the perfumer's point of view, for she uses a pint of eau de cologne daily.

Women Left
Marooned On
Small Island

nUTHLESSNESS is evidenced in the
X work OF the South Pacific raiders.
AAFrom the French schooner Lutece
they landed II women who cnanced
to be passengers on the vessel. These
are among the survivors OF the raid
ers' operations. Plans are now being
made to rescue them.
The Lutece was a small schooner
which traded among the South Sea
islands, incidentally carrying passen-
gers from one island to another. The
women who are marooned on Mo
peha island are supposed to be men,
bers of the families of French and
British planters who live in the is
lands.
The despatch from TutuiIa giving
the news of the German raiders op-
erations state that it was on Septem-
ber 5, one month ago yesterday, that
the Lutece was captured and her crew
and passengers left on the little is
land. The cabled report says they
were without food or water. The de-
spatch ends: These Qen and women
are, now in great need of food, water

PR|CES TO
Go Higher SOON

Booze prices are becoming an effec-
tive argument for prohibition with all
except the rich ''tippler." They are
apt in the near future in Honolulu to
become much more so, for plans were
discussed Informally this week among
the liquor dealers, both retail and
wholesale, to still further increase the
prices of alcoholic drinks.
The reason advanced for the intend
ed increase in prices is the new feder-
al tax upon liquor, which went into eff
feet Wednesday with the signing Of
the war revenue act by President
Woodrow Wilson. If this raise of
prices is made it will follow one only
recently made in all the liquor estab'
lishments.
The wholesalers raised the price to-
the retail dealers, and the saloon men
passed the buD along to the consum-
ers. Fifteen cent drinks went to 20
cents, and now it is planned to charge
25 cents for drinks which were few
months ago selling for Is cents.
An attempt is to be made to even
place plebian beer among the war lux
uries. 1t is seriously planned to
charge Is cents for glass of 'suds"

with dilapidated clothes, who rose
and offered the young lady his seat,
saying: 81 don't look as we'll as
