CZERNIN RESIGNS.
Austro-Hung Foreign Minister
Retires From Government.

Washington, April ,l5.-News OF
the resignation of Count Czernin as
Austro-Hungarian foreign minister
led to much speculation among OIL
cials and diplomats here as to the
causes which brought about the rath-
er dramatic exit of the Austrian OIL
cial at a moment when, through his
decided change of attitude to war
issues, involving his acceptance OF
the extreme German views, it has
been supposed that he had greatly
strengthened his position.
The change was manifested soon
after the Brest-Litovsk conference
where Czernin had become convinced
that his moderate views regarding
the basis of peace were unacceptable
to the dominant annexation and fore
ed indemnity party. Therefore, offl-
Gals here are inclined to believe that
it was not because the count was OBJ
noxious to Austria's great ally that
he was forced out of Office but rather
that the explanation was to be found
in internal Austro-Hungarian issues.

Manufacturers Must Secure Licenses

Attention of fertilizer manufactur-
ers and dealers has again been call
ed to the necessity for taking out
Federal licenses.
ALI fertilizer manufacturers, In
Guiding mixers, even though their
output may be small, are required to
take out licenses. Agents and deal
ers doing exclusively retail busi-
ness, whose gross sales do not
amount to more than 100000 a
year, are not required to take out
licenses or to make applications for
blanks. However, any retail dealer
or agent whose gross sales amount
to more than 100000, and who
does not apply for license is liable
under the provisions of the act OF
Congress providing for the govern
mental control of the industry.
Application for licenses should be
made to the law department, license
division, United States Food Admin
istration, Washington, D. c.

Prisoners Do Not Lose Insurance.

American soldiers and sailors IN
German prison camps prior to April
12, 1918, will not be deprived OF
their rights to war-risk insurance

Secretary of the Treasury, applica-
tions for Insurance may be 1ade in
behalf of such prisoners by persons
within the permitted class of bene-
ficiaries under the military and naval

Hakatau Suffers From Storm But
Fortunately No Eosss Is" :
OccaSioned To Sugar

Instead of blowing itself out as ex-
peeed by the weather sharps, the big
wind storm of Friday last continued
all that night and all yesterday, said
the Hilo Tribune of last Saturday.
In fact the wind seemed to increase
in force during the morning hours,
and the sea worked up to even greater
heights.
There was almost a tidal wave in
the Waikiki River at three-thirty p.
H.; sampan was wrecked at the
entrance to the Wailoa River; the
tracks Of the Hawaii Consolidated
Railway were badly washed out; the
seward end. Of the Hakalau mill was
stove In; ighterage work in the bay
vas suspended for the day, and one
Japanese eRdeavOring to salve the
wrecked sampan was thrown ON the
rocks and his hip broken.
The waves came rolling in over the
reef and piled up high on the beach.
In two places the water washed out
the tracks of the railroad and at Moo
beau Park the spray was dashed onto
the park. Down at the point where
the spar track runs to the old Mauna
Kea wharf, the railroad was destroyed
for q distance Of several hundred feet.
The waves washed out the traekbed
and then dug into earth and sand,
removing everything from under the
ties and leaving them and the rails
swinging in the air. Huge rocks we're
tossed aside and the ruin was com
plete.
Gangs of men were quickly put to
work, and they effected temporary re,
pairs that runs into the Hilo depot
The spur track, which is not used

Manager John Ross of Hakalau plan,
tation reported last night that dam
age was done to his mill, which is To-
Gated at the foot of Hakalau Gulch
in a peculiarly exposed position. The
waves came almost as high, he said,
as they did couple of years ago,
when a similar storm ragged along the
coastline. They smashed the seaward
end of the mill and broke down the
walls, besides flooding a limited extent
Of the factory floor.
No sugar was damaged, and the only
injury done was to the exposed end of
the mill building. Repair work was
started and in a day or so
