Rudfnger's stopover in Honolulu
has been yelled with secrecy until to-
day by federal officials. At the time
Of Rudinger's arrival in Honolulu the
Star.Bulletin secured the facts in the
case but on request Of army officials
withheld their publication. But now
that he has arrived safely on the
mainland and apparently not in the
custody Of federal officials in San
Francisco, they see no reason why his
amazing story OF purported German
plotting in China, parts OF which
were related in Honolulu, should not
be made public. Upon Rudinger's ar
rival here a few weeks ago govern
ment agents took temporary charge
Of him at quarantine, and for a greater
part OF the morning, as we'll as the
early part Of the afternoon, he was
closeted with Assistant y. s. Attor-
ney J. J. Banks, who was in charge
Of the local federal Office during the
absence Of U. s. Attorney 8. c. Huber

There was certain information
which the local officials were after

certain of this information was in
Rudinger's possession. Just what the
u. s. officers learned, however, Is
not TO be made public.
Favored Allied Cause
The fact that Rudfngev, an Italian
by birth, is an Austrian by naturali.
ration has not hindered him from
nursing broad pro-Ally sympathies, &C
cording TO the story he told in Homo
lulu, and It was because Of these SYM
pathies that he nearly lost his life
in China at the hands Of Hun agents.
Including consular attaches. The opin
ion was that Rudinger was going to
the United States to seek the protec-
ton Of the United States and her Al
lies from the German menace which
he had met In China.

AS a matter Of fact Rudinger's pro
Ally sentiments were expressed in
Honolulu when he declared his in
tention Of joining the United States
navy. Rudinger was not detained at
Honolulu and was allowed to proceed
to San Francisco on the steamer
which brought him here from the
Orient Upon his arrival on the
mainland he went to Angel Island at
the instance of government officials
where he was held pending an inves
tigation of rumors that he belonged
to the German general staff He has
been released, however, and Is now
probably on his way south, where he
has friends.
Local Adviser TO China
Rudinger was a legal adviser to
the Chinese government and was we'll
known as an attorney in the Orient.
He belonged to the Italian provinces
Of Austria and spoke with decided
English accent, the result OF manv
wears in English communities in the
Orient.
Last year Rudinger took pains to
impress upon the Chinese that Ger
many was not to be trusted and mere
ly desired to make a catspaw Of China,
AS a result he was waylaid one night
and taken to the Austrian consulate
at Shanghai. He was brought be-
fore a tribunal consisting Of the Aus
TRAN and German consuls and the
resident German judge. They told him
he was condemned to death, owing
to anti-German propaganda, but he
made a break for liberty, jumping
out Of the window to the street, 80
feet below, and ran to friendly Ene
lishman's house. pursued by the Ger.
rams who fired at him. He was hit
in the leg He then went to Sinsa-
more and took a steamer for San
Francisco, stopping at Honolulu en-
route.

Attorney Huber

Unless new regulations are made,
alien natives Of foreign countries in
Hawaii will not be drafted into the
United States Army. Ia the opinion OF
u. 8. Attorney s. C. Huber.
Under the rules Of the department q
says Attorney Huber, no alien who
has not declared his intention to be-
come an American citizen can be
drafted into the army"
He explains further that under the
usual operation Of the naturalization
law, Japanese have not been declaring
their intention to become American
citizens. This is especially true in
Hawaii, as the local U. s. court recent
" ruled that japanese are not eligible
for American citizenship. The ques.
ton Of eligibility Of japanese is now
before the United States supreme
court, having been taken there by
Takao Ozawa Of Honolulu, whose peti.

Favor for City Engineer Man
Who Can Be Relied on to

Democrats who have been Dattln2
themselves on the back that they
will have at least one Democrat as the
head OF a municipal department now
that George Collins, city and county
engineer, is slated for the position as
chief engineer OF the Bishop estate,
are doomed to disappointment, for
the Republicans have already started
the wheel turning 10 block such an
appointment.
John Wilson was nominated by
Mayor Fern to fill the position OF city
and A:nty engineer but with others
his name was LAID on the table
Just what the Republicans pans are
is being kept secret, but 1t is believed
that an ordinance will be introduced
this evening to Offset Democratic
hopes as far as the Democrats are
concerned.
Collins said today that he intended
to ask the board Of two weeks va
cation commencing August 6, as ne
has been working for three years and
needs a rest. This will probably be
followed by the filing Of his resigna
ton as city and county engineer TO
take effect about the first Of October.
In the meantime the Republicans Will
have their wires laid to such an ex'
tent that John Wilson will not be ap-
pointed.
Inasmuch as the city and county OF
Honolulu will hace in the neighoor'
hood OF a million dollars to spend on
roads and road Improvements during
the next two years or more, Repuo-

that he will shut it up unless it closes
its doors voluntarily. The imperial
government still has the upper hand.
The democratic parties have to save
what Of their gains they can and wait
until the republican idea grows bigger
before they can assert themselves. But
it is the democrats who have closed the
rcichstag after all. The Kaiser plainly
fears them. The chancellor S speech
was a hardly disguised effort to save
the dynasty which does not dare let
the people continue their efforts for
constitutional reforms and program of
