Observers who saunter along the

in progress and some have often ex.
pressed the wonder that the police
did not attempt to stop the gambling.
Harbor Policeman A e. Carter, who
broke up big game this morning and

Mukai, under arrest With the evidence,
has an explanation to give of the
''bone" rollers presence. Mukai was
fined S. in police court this morning.

if there was not a lot of gambling go
ing on on the 'front.' 'but how can |

JAPANESE Is ACCUSED
OF VERY UGLY CRIME

Two painful bites on his body, a
breathless chase a few feet ahead of
an Infatuated Chinese and death and
escape from an Infatuated husband was
the lot of /. Okabe, Japanese, who
tried to assault Tokanaka Shiqung in
Moiliili Saturday afternoon. Okabe is
now in custody charged with stat
utory offense He will probably be ar
raigned in police court Tuesday.
Capt McDuffie of the detectives,
who is gathering evidence in the case,
says that when the woman was attack
ed by Okabe, she offered violent re-
sistance and succeeded in biting her
molester twice.
In an effort to subdue the woman,
Okabe cut her twice on the head with
knife. but took to his heels when
her shrieks brought assistance. She
was later treated at the emergency
hospital -"
A Chinese who saw Okabe leaving
on the run took up the chase and near
ly caught his man. When the hus-
band was informed of and learned the
identity of Okabe he sought him out,
weighing in his mind whether to take
the man to the police or to deliver pun
ishment himself.
While the husband was celebrating
Okabe escaped. He was later caught
by the police. .s.....

FLOATS DISPLAY
NOT At CAPITOL

With the possibility confronting
him that the encampment Of troops
in the Capitol grounds may interfere
with the placing of floats there for eX.
hibition after the Carnival parade,
Alexander Hume Ford has decided to
arrange for another place than this
for their location ~ -s.@
i II vas said today that the floats
may be placed in the vicinity of the
"0ld Plantation" On King street, al.
though this has not been definitely
decided. Ford was warned of the pos
sibility of troops being encamped by
the governor. Governor Pinkham said
today: "-
"The Hawaiian department notified
the governor that il wished to occupy
a portion of the Capitol grounds.
Hence as a matter of courtesy he
called in Alexander Hume Ford and
stated this fact. -. T.. I'D.
Mr. Ford, instead of keeping to his
original plan of locating his floats up
against the fence, seemed to think he
bad the privilege of occupying the
whole ground as he saw fit.
The governor advised him, in or.
der, to make sure to see the mayor
about the use Of Thomas Square What
conclusions were reached are not at
present within his knowledge"

Sixth German Loan Ob.
 ject of Mystery

Berne, March 4.-The issue of Germany's sixth war loan has again raised the question as tc the sources of the empires sin
 ews of war. It Is a mystery which even expert bankers are unable to explain. The financial experts point out that the Ger. man people are living much more economically than ever before, while their earnings have greatly increased, and that capital for merly used in carrying on the
The Carlisle independent., 1917-03-22

foreign trade of the country, sidetracked from it's original use by the British blockade. has been invested in war bonds. They add that much capital which was locked up in raw materials in warehouses and factories was re leased when the stocks were turned into finished goods after the outbreak of the war and sold at unusually large profits. After giving these explanations the ii nanciers freely admit that they are far from meeting the situa- tion. While the factors mention ed figured largely in the earlier war loans, tits contended that by COW they must have spent their force.
 One fact which cannot be dodged is that nearly the entire able bodied male phpulation has been withdrawn from produc- tion and has become a huge bur den on the economic powers of the country. Secondly, the for eign trade sources of enormous profit before the war. has prac- tically ceased to exist. In the face of these adverse facts Ger many raised last year two war loans which called for subscript- ion of fully S5,0O0,000,0O0, an amount far in excess of what the German people were able to in vest in securities in even the best year before the war.
