SOLDIER JAILED
AS SUSPECT IN
WAIKIKI THEFIS
.as Hi HNMHNwYNn

Two soldiers have been placed I'M
der arrest, pending further inyestiga-
tons by the detective bureau, I'm con-
nection with series Of robberies and
attempted robberies in Royal Grove,
Waikiki, during the past two weeks.
Albert Dempsey, 18th Company, Fort
Kruger, was arrested last night at 7:39
O'Clock by two civilians, as he was at
tempting to enter the residence of
Lieutenant Drinkwater on Kuhio
street, it is alleged. The other soldier,
Private Whitson, was ordered arrest.
ed, ~and the military authorities at
Fort Kruger are holding him until the
investigations by the police develop.
According to the two civilians who
apprehended Dempsey, they were sit.
ting on porch across the street from
the Drinkwater residence, when two
soldiers stopped in front of the Of
fieer's house. One of the soldiers
paced up and down in front of the
house, evidently keeping watch for
anyone who might disturb them, while
the other soldier crawled on his hands
and knees past the shrubbery and
onto the lanai, where the civilians
allege he attempted to open window.
The two civilians rushed across the
street and caught the man who was
on the porch. The man on watch
escaped. Dempsey, the captured sol.
der, was booked at police headquar-
tiers for Investigation, and is alleged
by the detectives to have declared
that Whitson was the other soldier in
the affair. 49, -.
The detectives have not decided
whether or not Dempsey is connected
with the other numerous attempts at
robbery which have been reported by
Royal Grove residents during the past
two weeks, although nearly all the at
tempted and successful burglaries
have occurred between the hours OF
and 1880 O'Clock, the same time as
the attempt last evening -.
A Japanese was arrested two weeks
ago and sentenced to Imprisonment
for robbing the Cunha residence at
Royal Grove, and since then numerous
complaints have been sent to the po-
lice. Detectives have been stationed
in the vicinity of Royal Grove for the
past week, but owing to the full moon
last night, they were withdrawn.

Church LEAGUE
MAY GROW OUT
OF smith VISIT

Fred B. Smith, who left for the
mainland this morning with Mrs,
Smith, was the principal speaker at
gathering of leading churchmen of
the city last evening at the Christian
church. Representatives from four,
teen local churches were present.
Mr. Smith proposed thta the
churches of the city get together on
some plan to organize live inter
church federation with a paid secre-
tary. He said that the loss Of power
of the church in a community was
due to sectaranism and the failure of
the churches to cooperate.
He cited the necessity of work in
the schools, the need for the suppress
sion of vice, and the maintenance of
law and order He argued that re-
cruiting campaign with the denemina-
lions working together, would bring
real results. -
Following the talk the council nam.
ed committee of six to plan for a
live church federation. The commit
tee named was as follows: ]. P. Erd.
man, r. B. Anderson, Prof. Vaughan
MacCaughey, w. P. Thomas, ]. A.
Rath, w. G. Hall and F. j. Lowrey.
R. H Trent presided at the meeting.

HERMISTON WANTS
ROAD TO MEADOWS

Pilot Rock had her turn yesterday
with the county court and today Her
miston is having her turn. Both
communities are interested in roads,
the Pilot Rock people wanting the
road between Pendleton and Pilot
Rock improved and the Hermistonians
wanting new road from their city
to the Meadows.
The application of the Pilot Rockers
to have the road to their city graded
with the guarantee that they would
keep It dragged for the period Of
year was looked upon favorably by
the court The petitioners had raised
between $500 and $1,000 in Pilot Rock
and in this city with which to MAIN
tain the road, and the court promised
to grade the road as soon as the wea-
ther permits.
The HermistOnians met with the
court just before noon and asked for
county road south out Of their city
to Hlnkle and into the Meadows coun-
try There is some objection being
made by Stanfield and Echo but the
Hermistonians contend the objections
are purely selfish and growing out of
a desire to keep Hermiston from
drawing any trade from that part of
the west end

LITTLE WHISKEY AND
BEER WILL GO BACK
Only IS Quarts of Red Liquor ana
100 Quarts of Beer Left Undelivered
i'm Local Express Offices.

Pendleton became bone-dry at 9
o'clock last evening when the two ex-
press offices closed their doors to fur
ther deliveries of booze shipments.
All day long there was a stream OF
callers at both offices and but very
little liquor was left on hand for the
companies to ship back to the ship
pers.
At the American Express office ali
shipment were delivered except seven
cartons of whisky and four barrels
of beer. and at the Northern Express
office all that remained unclaimed
were seven whiskey shipments and
one beer. This made a total of IS
quarts of whisky and 12O quarts of
beer.
Some of the undelivered booze was
unclaimed while other shipments be-
longed to persons whose 2S day period
was not up. One man who had a
shipment of beer had taken out a
previous shipment just 81 days be
fore and. therefore, lost his shipment
by Just one day.
The express agents are breathing a
sigh OF relief. as the liquor business
had made them a great deal of extra
work. In addition they had to be on
the alert always to prevent illegal
deliveries One of the agents was yes

Fact That Only American

Thread to Hold Existing
TaCit Peace.
AMERICAN SHIPS MAY ARM
If Advice of Government is Fol-
lowed an Even More Serious
Situation May Develop.

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.--The crisis
Of the strained relations appeared
nearer today. The official version OF
the unwarned summarizing Of the lin
er California carrying women AMI
children made officials feel the situa-
ton may quickly develop into some
thing more serious. Germany's with
holding American passports is con-
trary TO all international and diplo
matte usage. The fact that John e.
Lee, the single American aboard the
California. was rescued may be q
slender thread to enable President
Wilson TO hold the existing tacit
peace
Some officials openly feared the
thread would not hold. They cited
Americas frequent warnings that
american lives must not be placed
in jeOjardy. They admitted Ger
many had openly displayed her truo
spirit when she summarized the CAL
ifornia. The presidents friends said
Wilson would not declare war unless
he was absolutely sure American
rights were clearly violated.
Ships May Arm Defensively.
The government ruled that Ameri-
can ships may arm defenslvely. II
the advice Is followed more serious
developments are expected.
