ROSS DID NOT

Champion Says 0lympian is
Real Sportsman; Kelii
Did 1t BY Accident

Norman Ross did not cross over
my legs any time during the 100-yard
race last night" said Duke P. Kaha-
namoku, worlds champion swimmer.
"Kelii crossed my legs during the
race, but this was not Intentional as
we we're all punched together. Nor
man Ross is a good sportsman, and
would not even think of fouling me
intentionally. -.
1.-TWO of the swimmers we're going
out of their course in this race. Ross
was swerving, as he usually does in
the sprints, and SO was Kelii. Ross
was close to Kelii and We were all
swimming along together. felt some
one crossing over me, and looked
around and found that it was Kelii.
And anyone who knows Kelii can
realize that he would not dream of
trying to do anything to handicap me.
1T was a case of being mixed up,
and have no alibis to offer, and fur
thermore want to state that Ross
showed excellent craftsmanship after
the 220 race, and he furthermore
gave all the credit to Kelii, Kruger
and myself in the races. hope that
the Honolulu people will prove to be
fair to Ross in this matter. He took
his defeats like man, and l have
evidence to prove that he was pull
ing for me to set new record.
1T was unfortunate that such an
accident occurred, but you may say
for me that neither Ross nor Kelii
had any intention of hindering me in
my race. / think that covers the sit
uation clearly"

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. T.
Admiral Takeshita, a member of the
Japanese war mission. now here, was
in conference today with u. S. navy
officials with a view to bringing about
more perfect unity Of action between
the United States and Japan.
The outstanding points under dis
cussion are the solution of the trans
portation problem, and just what
Japan can do to aid in increasing the
tonnage now plying in the Atlantic
and Pacific. Americas aid to ship
building in Japan is also being dis
cussed, the recent embargo on steel
having stirred Nipponese shipbuilders
to make a strong protest to the admin
istration here that such a course
would paralyze the trade in Japan.
The construction of vessels for use
by the Entente in Transporting much
needed supplies to Europe was also

ESPIONAGE MEASURE
 PASSES TIE SENATE
NEWSPAPER CENSORSHIP AND PROHIBITION AMENDMENT
 ARE STRICKEN OUT.

Washington.-Afte nearly three weeks of debate, ranging over innum- erable problems of the war, the Sen ate, by a vote of TT to six. passed the administration espionage bill, pro- nounced one of the most drastic and all-inclusive measures in American congressional history.
 A similar bill has passed the House and virtual redrafting of many of the most important provisions is expected in the forthcoming conferences.
 During final consideration the Sen ate stripped the measure entirely of provisions for newspaper censorship and restriction upon manufacturers of grain into intoxicating liquors and re- jected an amendment designed to curb speculation in food product, although sentiment obviously was overwhelm- ing in favor of such legislation later.
 As completed the Senate bills prin- cipal sections provide:
 Authority for the presidtnt to em- bargo exports when he finds that "the public safety and welfare so require" (Not in the House measure).
 Authority for the Postoffice Depart ment to censor mails and exclude mail matter deemed seditious, anarcl- istic or reasonable and making it's mailing punishable under heavy pen alties (Not in the House bilD.
 For punishment of espionage, deiin- ed in most detailed terms, including use of military information.
 For the control of merchant vessels in American waters.
 Punishment for conveyance of false reports to interfere with military ope- rations, wilful attempts to cause dis affection in the military or naval forces or obstruction of recruiting.
 For the seizure of arms and ammu- nitions and prohibition of their expor- tation under certain conditions.
 For penalizing conspiracies design ed to harm American relations or for destruction of property with the Unit ed States. For increased restriction upon issuance of passports, with pen alties for their forgery or false pro- eurement, and for material extension of tfle power to issue search warrants for inspection of premises.
 On the question of prohibition and food stuff conservation, the Senate, by vote of 47 to 37, reversed its ac- tion of Saturday in accepting Sena- tor Cummins amendment providing IL. c.. <.P cereals, grain, sugar and syrup into intoxicating liquors should be pro- hibited.

DEALERS GALL HALT
 ON WHEAT FUTURES.
FIX MAXIMUM PRICE AT cHlcA- GO RESENTATIVES'
 CONFERENCE.
MAY BUY ONLY TO CLOSE
Milling Interests From All important eenters Confer and Adopt Resolu- tons Pointing Out Reasons For
 Extreme Protective Steps.

Chieago-Aetion which it is believ- ed will remove the element of specu- lation from the grain market and fore stall any steps by the federal govern- ment was taken here at meeting of representatives of the primary grain exchanges of the country.
 It was accomplished by fixing q maximum price for wheat futures at or under which sales may be made, but no buying will be permitted except to close out accounts. No trading in May options of wheat, corn or oats is permitted except to close deals.
 The same principle was extended to July and September oats and corn in principle, but action was not taken, as it was held unnecessary at this time. Grain prices were lowered.
 Milling interests were represented at the meeting, together with the grain exchanges of Chicago, New York, Toledo, Winnipeg, Minneapolis, Kansas City Omaha and St Louis. The following statement was lssued
 Tt is the concensus of opinion of the representative of the various boards of trade and chambers of com merce assembled that the unusually high prices are due:
 "First-To the subnormal produce tion of grain and foodstuffs generally the world over during the preceding year, and the very unfavorable out look for the growing crops as forecast by our agricultural department.
 "Second,-To the breakdown in the system of distribution because of in- ability of railroad companies to rem der normal or efficient service, the re- Iation of supply to demand being so close that extremely good facilities should have been available when in fact the railroads never in their hf5- tory rendered a service so low in eiti- cieney
 "Third over half the world at war the demands from all import- ing countries are abnormally high. This intensified by our own industrial activity, naturally, has increased tho demand for foodstuffs
 "Fourth-To the very commendablo efforts of the officials at Washington to stimulate production which havo been misinterpreted not only by our own people, but by foreign govern ments as meaning that we were in a condition bordering on famine. Nat ural conditions admitted of high prices, but the hysteria is absolutely rasnanqihIa fnr the inflated values now prevailing.

MONGOLIA ATTACKED
 TWICE BY U-BOATS
GUNNERs ARE CONVINCED THEY SANK SUBMARINE ON OUT
 WARD TRIP.

New York-The steamship Mongo. lia of the Atlantic Transport Line was attacked twice by German submarines, once crossing the Atlantic and the sec ond time returning, according to the story told at an Atlantic port by the United States naval gunners assigned to protect the vessel on the high seas.
 The steamship, the ginners are con- fidant, had a narrow escape from being sunk on the return voyage. They related that while off the Scilly Is lands, about 12 o'clock on the night of May 4, and with the moon shining, the lookout discerned the white wake of a torpedo extend itself across the bow, stretching from right to left. The missile, it is declared, passed close to the vessel.
 The gunners sprang to their posi- tions and brought their defense gun to bear on the spot whence the torpedo was supposed to have come. No signs of submarine, however, could se seen. The gun was discharged and careful watch maintained for some time, but the submarine gave no fur ther evidence of her presence.
 On the voyage over, the gunners said, they saw the coming tower of a U-boat off the port bow and the b. inch stern gun was fired, the tower, however, having disappeared in the meanwhile. Then periscope pro jected itself above the water off the starboard bow and the gunners fired again.
 The periscope immediately disap- peared and above the surface of the water there arose a white gas or va DOT. The gunners are convinced from this that they had succeeded in send ing one of the kaiser's U-boats to the bottom of the sea for good.
 The gunners were confident that the attack on the way over was conducted by submarine and that she dived right under the Mongolia in order to secure more advantageous position from which to launch torpedo.
 The Mongolia's gunners number IF men, under command of Lieut.. Ware, T. S. N. They include men making the best records at target practice in the Atlantic feet They could hardly repress their pride in telling of their escapes.
 The gunners on the Mongolia were jubilant upon their arrival. They re- iterated their conviction that the shot on April 19 sank the submarine. It was fired, Lieut. Ware said, by James A. Goodwin, gunner's mate, of Ports mouth, Va.
