Here's the Hardest Working Boy
In Baseball; 642 Straight Games

San Francisco. CAL. April 2S.-when
'Biff" Schaller, leftfielder of the local
Pacific Coast league team, failed to
appear in the lineup of game at Salt
Lake City recently. he brought to a
close a record for consecutive games
played that will probably stand un-
equalled. It was Schaller's first day
off since the opening of the 1914 sea-
son.

a pretty ouIfield game, his light hit
ting in fast company cost him the
chance to become a big league star.
He returned to San Francisco deter
mined to make some sort of record
that would get him into the baseball
limelight, and he seems to have done
it.
All through the past three seasons,
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1917-04-28

Schaller has not once had trouble with
an umpire, and has never been chased
from the lot. He is fast and daring on
the bases, but he has not once been
bumped or spiked seriously enough to
keep him out Of the next days game.
He has not had any sort OF illness
through the baseball season. or even
a bad headache.
Schaller is as pleased with his rec
ord as would be expected. but he is
sorry that he could not carry it on
through the present season. He should
be content with the distinction of be-
ing the hardest as well as the hardest
worked player in the game and it will
be some while before another comes
to equal his record or even approach
it. He took part in 642 consecutive
championship baseball games.

WANT HONOLULU HALE
TO BE PRESERVED FOR
Benefit OF TOURISTS

Since the news was published that
Honolulu Hale, the building put up
at the order of Kamehameha III in
1916, was being torn down, a large
number of citizens have expressed
their regret that the old structure
could not be preserved in some way
for the generations to come.
Raymond {. Brown, secretary of
the Chamber of Commerce, said to-
day that scores of citizens mad re-
marked to him that it was a shame
to allow the old landmark 20 be de-
stroyed. The lanai might be taken
away, it has been suggested, and the
old pile moved to some site where
it could remain as a sight seeing OBJ
ject. The idea behind the sUgges-
ton is to build a new lanai for the
structure once the stones have been
moved to permanent spot, place
card on the door, The first govern
ment building erected in the islands"
and leave it for the benefit of the
tourists to come

VAR COST NEARLY
NINETY BILLIONS
TO ALL nations

Wall street is beginning to look into
war expenditures. The cost of the war
from its beginning in 1914 to August 1,
this year, has Appropriated $90,000,-
100000. At the present time, says the
Detroit Free Press, it is costing about
Sill, 100000 daily for both sides.
These figures are based on state
ments made by the leading statesmen
of Europe, as reported by dispatches
from abroad, and, so far as the United
States is concerned, on official figures
of government expenditures for THO
four months, April to July, inclusive.
For the period since this country
entered the war we have expended a
total of $1,629, 900, 600, of which 81,
49,, 500, 900 has been advanced to our
allies. Consequently our own dis.
bursements on the strictly war pro-
gram have been the nominal amount
of barely $300,000,000. Including our
advances to our allies our daily war
expenditure in July was practically
SIS, 100000 daily.
It has been estimated in Washing.
ton that the cost of the war to the
United States to June 80, 1918, will be
ST 900, 100000, of which $7,000,000,-
900 will consist of loans to the
allies. Expenditure of $4,000. 600 900
for sixteen months would mean an
average daily bill of s37, 100000, but,
allowing for $7,00o,0o0,900 to be ad
vanced to Britain, France and other
members of the entente, our own daily
cost would be lowered to S21, 100000.
During the last winter Britain's
daily cost ran up to almost double
this latter figure, or about $4,000, 600,
but it was stated by Chancellor of the
Exchequer Bonar Law in July that re-
Gently these costs had declined about
S5.000,000 daily. bringing current costs

III. may FIGHT
AUTHORITY OF
UTILITY BODY

No decision has been reached as
yet as to what action viii be taken
by the Inter.Island Co. regarding the
adverse order of the public utilities
commission, declared Judge W. l..
Whitney, one of the company's attor-
neys. Il have had the order for only
about half an hour and have had no
opportunity to study it," Judge Whit
ney said at noon. In answer to the
question as to whether the Inter-ls-
land would admit being under the au-
thority of the commission, he said,
We do not know yet what we will
do" ..-.-..
An official of the company said
that as the Inter-Island was under
the jurisdiction of the Interstate CON-
merce Commission, he did not see
why it should have 20 be responsible
to two commissions. The Inter-ls-
land has claimed before that the ter
ritorial public utilities commission
had no authority over it.
James A. Kennedy, president of the
company, who has been in San Fran:
cisco for the past few weeks, is now
believed to be in Washington, or Oh
his way there.
Early in the findings issued today
in the Inter-Island case the public
utilities commission gives its claim
for authority over the company, au-
thority which is stated as both terri
torial and federal.
As to territorial authority chapter
I2S of the Revised Laws Of Hawaii,
1915, as amended, is cited. Supreme
court decisions are also given and
congressional act naming the powers
of the public utilities commission of
Hawaii These decisions and acts are
quoted fully. H.. III. ....
The first date Tor investigation was
set for September IL, 1916, this to be
a general probe of the company's bus
mess. Subsequent to this, however,
came complaints from people on Ha-
waii and Maui against the new freight
rates that were just going into ef-
feet, so that the investigation took
a sudden turn in line, and many wit
neSses were called - ..~ -.
