NEUTRALS CALLED TO
meet WITH KAISER
Ambassadors and Ministers To
Be Advised To Continue
Trade Relations ~
(Assbciated Press BY U. s. Naval Com.
munication Service) Is.

WASHINGTON, July . - Advices
from Berlin received via London say
that the Kaiser has invited the ambas.
sailors and ministers to Berlin Of the
various neutral countries to a confer
ence which is to be held Saturday.
Here IL is assumed that the purpose
Of the conference which has been call
ed by the Kaiser is TO sound warn
ing to the neutral nations not TO heed
the demands of the Allies on such neu-
trail countries that they shall cease to
trade with Germany. 1t is also as
sumed that he will inform the diplo-
mats that any such action will be con
strped In Berlin rs hostile to Germany.
The immediate reason that moved the
Kaiser TO the calling of the diplomatic
conference is here taken to be the put.
ting into effect Of the Export Control
Law by this country. This law has
more terrors for the neutral nations
than any that had previously been pass
ed by any Of the warning nations, since
the United States is today the chief
market place of the world and several
articles which the neutral nations most
require were included in the first proc
lamatiou issued by President Wilson to
make the new law operative. ...Es

The nature Of Mr.. McCubbin 3 in,

ENGINEER FOR BIG
ISLAND j IS PROPOSED
Question Will Come Before Super.
vlSors This Week

HlIO, July The question of APP
pointing county engineer to take
charge Of all matters necessitating the
supervision Of an expert engineer, I'M
der the supervision of the board of su-
pervisors, will most likely come before
the board for discussion early next
week, for the topic is already bein :
freely spoken of.
Whether the creation of such an of.
fee will meet the views of the general
public is u point on which there seems
to be considerable doubt but it is GER
tain that the appointment of a man
who is COnversant with the duties of
such an office and who is conscientious
enough to perform such duties to the
best of his ability would undoubtedly
result in the saving of money by the
board 49,. .. WA
Almost $350,000 out of the present
bond issue is to be expended on this
Island, the bulk of which will be Oh
belt roads, and in seeing that the work
for which this money is appropriated
is faithfully carried out and in a man
ner which wi II warrant the production
of good roads, such an officer would
more than save whatever salary is paid
him.
The items appropriated, according to
n letter under date of July 3, from the
acting treasurer of the County of Ha.
wall, are as follows: Dredging in the
vicinity of Kuhio Wharf, 5000; ad.
ditiona to Hilo tax office, $4,000; water
works pipe lines and Reservoirs, $40,
900; belt roads, $265,00O, and armories,
- 800, total Of $349, 800.
Since this matter is about to come
before the local board objections to
the propositions, if any, might we'll be
voiced at once,

General Scott from the southwestern

to fight excellently and the spirit was
splendid everywhere that went.
There is every chance Of successful

fighting at Brezazeny and says ~ was
struck forcibly by the accuracy Of the
Russian artillery FIRE and the effective
