Honolulu, Nov. 8.-Four survivors
of the L. S. Shipping Board steamer.
Dumaru, which lightning struck and
set afire October 16 last. were brought
to this port late yesterday on a 60
vernment vessel which picked them
up from a life craft 200 miles from
the island of Guam, after tthey had
suffered terrible hardships. They are
the only known survivors of the Du-

Among the survivors is Captain O.
Borresen. Second officer A. r. Stats
was injured in jumping from the
steamer to the raft, but lived until the
government vessel picked up the RATS
passengers nine days later, dying on
the rescue ship. Stats injuries para
Iyzed him. None of those on the raft
had any food from the time they left
the Dumaru about 5.15 p. m. October

meagre supply of water they were able
to place aboard the raft was exhausted
the day before they were rescued
The Dumaru was on her way from
San Francisco to Manila with a cargo
of gasoline and explosives. She was
25 miles from Guam when struck.
She blazed into flames from end to
end almost Immediately the survivors
said, but the crew were able to launch
two life boats. The five men were left
aboard when the others left. The raft
on which they escaped became separ-
ated from the boats and they had no
idea what might have become of them.
The boats are still missing.

FALSE Peace news
Millions Celebrate End Of War
Before Delegates See FOCh
UNITED PRESS IS BLAMED
Fighting in Progress Hours After
Time Germany Was Said to Have
Accepted Tcrms-PIenipotentia
Had Not Seen GcneraIissimo.

New York, Nov. S.-Millions Of
Americans realized today that they
had been hoaxed into celebrating the
end OF the war by publication of the
United Press dispatches declaring the
armistice signed and fighting ended.
Twenty-four hours have passed
since the country was thrown into q
delirium by these reports which de-
'clared the arnistice had been signed
at II o'clock yesterday morning and
that fighting had ceased at o'clock
yesterday afternoon.
Each hour brings added official
evidence that the reports were false
and that the American people were
fooled. Not only have official COM
munications from France to the
= state department at Washington de-
/ nounced the reports as untrue, but
the official statements of the French
and British war offices show the
lighting still going on.
Far from signing an armistice at II
o'clock yesterday morning, the Ger
man delegates did not cross. the Allied
'linc until last nightrrsaT9sislifs irecorde ed
in the Associated Press dispatches
filed in Paris at 4:20 o'clock this
morning. The German delegates
were to be conducted early today to
the meeting place which is four
hours journey from La Capelle, the
place where they crossed into the AL
lied lines.
Fighting, instead of having ended at
o'clock yesterday afternoon, still was
going on last night. Furthermore,
. Marshal Haig's communique this
morning reports an advance along the
nctive battle front with villages and
prisoners captured. Hours after the
fighting was falsely reported stopped
the Americans troops were smashing
their way forward on the Sedan front
md the only point in the whole battle
line where the firing seemed to have
stopped at all was at a point where it
was necessary to let the German COM
= Imissioners pass through.
Another Associated Press dispatch
from Paris this morning records the
official report OF the French war of
flee that French troops have reached
the railway junction Of Liart, 20 miles
north of Rethel
No one can say what will come of
the meeting Of the armistice commits
sioners today. No one doubts that
the end of the war is in sight: that an
Rrmistice will be signed and that the
fighting will end while terms of peace
arc made
But the fact is esta blshed by of
ficial record that no armistce was
signed at II q, m. yesterday and fight
ing did not end at 2 p. m. Yesterday.
