Lost In Haleakala
Six OF Party Of Ten From Honolulu
Spend UncOmfOrtably Night In
Crater When Heavy Fog Settles
From Honolulu Y. NJ. c. A.

Six young japanese, of the Nuuanu
Y. M. c. A. Honolulu spent a trying
"a hours in the crater of Haleakala
last week, and consider themselves
fortunate to escape with no serious
injury to any of their number. With
four other members in their party the
descended into the crater last Friday
morning, where a dense fog overlook
them and they were unable to find
their way out.
Four of the crowd became separat-
ed from the others, and did manage
to reach the rest house before night,
but the others failed to do so. The
four at the rest house fired a revolver
and shouted in an endeavor to. guide
the wanderers, but, although the sig
mails were heard, the fog and echoes
caused such confusion that they were
unable to gain any sense of the direc-
tion from whence they came.
Burned Camera Films For Heat
The six lost men finally climbed to
the rim of the crater and camped for
the night, suffering severely from the
cold, they attempted to light fire,
but fuel was lacking and what they
could find was so damp that it would
not burn, Notwithstanding that they
burned all their camera films and
notebooks in an effort to ignite it.
On Saturday morning one of the
four at the rest house started down
the mountain for aid, but before this
arrived the fog lifted and the lost
men made their way to camp.
News of the pilillia had in the mean
time reached Central Maui and search
parties were being organized when
news of their return was received |
The party returned to Honolulu last
evening.

Judge Mckay Wins By
Upper Court Decision

In the case of Akatsuka VS.. w. A.
Mckay for damages in sum of SIS 900
the supreme court on Tuesday rend-
cred decision was rendered in favor
of the defendant, thus ending a case
of considerable local interest.
Mckay, was charged with having
had the records of the Wailuku dis
trict court, of which he is magistrate,
entered to show that Akatsuka had
pleaded guilty to the theft of certain
brass and copper in the spring of
1916, whereas it was alleged he had
pleaded not guilty. On this allega-
ton the case against Akatsuka was
taken to the second circuit court and
by that tribunal remanded for new
trial. Judge Mckay being disqualifi-
ed, the case was tried before District
Magistrate Guy Goodness, who dis
charged the prisoner. The action
against Mckay followed, Akatsuka
being represented by Eugene Murphy
as attorney.
copy of the higher courts opinion
has not yet been received here, but
according to information from Homo
lulu it clears the local magistrate of
making false records. McKay's case
was handled by j. Lightfoot, as depu-
W attorney general of the territory.

Puunene POStOMCe
RObber AdmitsGuilt
Simeon Kaiawaia Needed Money To
Spend New Years In Honolulu
Only Took What He Needed -
Brother Died In Pen Recently

The mystery of the robbery of the
Puunene postoff1ce, of Christmas eve
of some $50 in cash has been solved
by County Sheriff Glen Crowell. At
ter some clever detective work, which
finally led him to Honolulu, Crowelrs
chase came to an end last Sunday
night with the full confession of the
culprit.
The burglar proved to be Simeon
Kalawaia, aged 81, and employee Of
the Puunere plantation in capacity
of brakeman, teamster, and general
labor. He gained entrance to the
postoffice ty breaking the glass door
with his elbow and then reaching
through and throwing the bolt.
The peculiar feature of the burglary
which puzzled the officers, was the
fact that after finding box with the
$50 in small change in it besides some
stamps, the thief had forced open a
desk drawer containing about $1,000 in
currency and gold, and although this
large sum of money was within plain
sight, had left without touching it.
Traced BY Trail OF Dimes
Sherig Crowell being off the Island
at the time of the robbery, did not get
to work on it until the following week.

about $45, probably on Monday night
OF last week. The money was in a
box in the office and constituted re-

Office was apparently opened by some
one having key that fit the lock. The
matter has been under investigation
by the police but thus far no clew has
been discovered. Po5toffice Inspector

BIG FIRE AT LAHAINA
|. CAUSES $15O,OOO LOSS
Large Section OF Business Part Of Town Destroyed
---LOss OF Hose Connection Caused Delay Which
Proved Most Costly y---StenuOus Work Saved
More OF Town From Burning Insurance Car
ried $36,OOO--- Indication That Burglars We're
Responsible

While there is no conclusive evid-
ence as yet to prove the theory, there
is strong reason to believe that the
Lahaina fire was due directly or in
directly to burglars.
The fact that back door to the Sing
Lung store, in which the fire orginat-
ed, was found to be open when the
first fire fighters arrived on the scene,
first gave rise to this impression.
Later, on Monday morning, Sheriff
elem CrowelI, after careful search
of the ruins, found the paddock and
hasp with which the door in question
had been fastened, and both show un-
mistakabe evidence of having been
forced open.
The lock, which was probably lying
on the ground, shows little effect of
fire, but it's bolt is bent far to one side
and pulled from the socket as though
done by a Jimmy. One side of the
hasp has also been jerked out of the
metal base to which it was riveted in
manner that could probably not have
occurred simply from the fire.
A thorough search in the ruins also
failed to bring to light four watches
which were in the store as wall as
some coin that was in a trunk when
the place burned.
1t is the theory Of the police that
robbers, in their search for loot, eth
er dropped a match or cigaret which
later started the blaze, or else deliber-
ateIy set the place on fire with view of
conceaIng their crime. Up to the
present time, however, they have fail
ed to connect anyone with the evid-
ence that the fire was not of purely
accidental origin.
By far the disastrous conflagration
t0ry of Maui, was that which
started about 11:30 o'clock last Satur-
day night in the business center of
Lahaina, and before it was finally
checked had destroyed more than 80
separate buildings and had caused a
loss aggregating between $125,000 and
$150,O00.
The fire started in the fruit store
of the Sing Lung Co., two doors from
The Maui news. [volume] (Wailuku, Maui, H.I.) 1900-current, 1919-01-10

the corner of Front and Church
hour after the place had been closed
for the night. 1t was first discovered
by a mounted policeman, who gave
the alarm by riding around the town
blowing his whistle.
BY the time fire fighters arrived on
the scene the store was mass of
flames, and the heat was so great that
no one could approach very near.
Fire hose from the court house was
carried to the scene within q reason
able time, but reducing coupling
was missing it could not be attached
to the fire hydrant 1t developed that
this coupling had been left at the
scene of the fire which destroyed a
cottage at the Lahaina hospital at the
time of the big wing storm, several
weeks ago. By the time it was found
and brought to the scene the blaze had
communicated to buildings on either
side and the heat was SO great that
it was impossible to pass in front of
them along the street.
A little later the block on the ma
kai side of the street took fire, and the
volunteer workers were all but help
less.
Wind Spread Fire Fast
So rapid was the spread of the
blaze, famed as it was by a brisk
wind, that in a little more than two
hours it had practically burned itself
out. It had swept the block clean
from the corner occupied by the Yee
Zip store, as far east as the lane, on
the east side of which stands the Hop
Wo store. Here the fire fighters did
some effective work, and prevented
the fire from continuing further down
the street. The Hop Wo store, how
ever, was badly scorched on the out
side and the stock within badly dam
adge by water. This place was insur-
ed, and the adjusters have allowed
1894 as covering the loss.
Within this area were the big Len

acres, which brought a total of 1885,
an average of about $22SO per acre,
