INJURED MAN FOUND
LYING IN STREET
Korean Believed Victim of Auto
Or Motorcycle

A Korean man was taken TO the pc,
lice station about eight O'Clock last
hight, having been picked up near the
ccrner of King and River Streets. He
was removed to The Queens Hospital
and at midnight was still in state Of
semi c consciousness. He may have a
fractured skull and hemorrhage of the
lungs. .# .....
Word was telephoned to the police
station to send the ambulance for n
man who was lying in the roadway
hurt. On the arrival Of that vehicl"
d. Garcia, driver of a milk wagon 0per.
ated by the Kaiulani Dairy, was being
detained and accused By onlCokcrs of
having run over the injIred man.
Garcia was taken TO the police sta
ton and booked for investigation. lie
stated that while driving along King
Street, in the direction of KAhhi, h
felt his wagon jolt, and on looking
down saw that the wagon had passed
over the leg of man lyans in tn
road ....i
Garcia denies having knocked tn,
man down, aud IL is improbable that
the injuries which he sustained couIC
have been inflicted by a light wagon
such as Garcia was driving, posslnt
over him.
1t is thought probable that thu
Korean was struck by either motor
cycle or automobile, and left lyir!
where he was knocked down.

For Further Delay Of Warfare
Associated Pres. ~ Fsdsral wireless,

tAssociAted Press by FedsrAi wirelsss)
WASHINGTON, March 2l--Gover.
nor Manning Of South Carolina, who
was caller at the White House yes
terday, urged upon President Wilson
the necessity for war with Germany
without any further preliminaries. In
the opinion of the South Carolina exc
cutive, no reason further exists for
treating Germany as anything but an
open and an ayowed enemy of the
United States.
In an interview, following his call
at the White House, Governor Man
ming explained that he had been one
of the many who had at first opposed
the suggestion that the United States
should join in the war against Ger-
many, but in the face OF the repeated
Outrages against the rights of Ameri-
can citizens he is convinced that the
time has come when America must
unite with the other nations in sub
DUNG and putting down the nation
that respects no law of God or man.
The time has now come when the
United States should use its fullest
force against Germany in the protec-
ton of its own rights. He therefore
advocates the calling Of congress into
declaration of war and urges the
President to mobilize the regular army,
call out the militia and issue a call for
volunteers. The navy should be used
aggressiVely without further delay.
