Bull Almost Kills
WaiIuku Dairyman
P. W. Eichinger Suffers Injuries
From Enraged Brute That Will
Disable Him For Months Many
Bones Broken.

Gored by savage BULL which at
tackled him when his back was turned
for an instant, p. w. Eichinger, mana
ger of the dairy department of the
Wailuku Sugar Co., is in the Paia hos
pital with most OF the ribs on one side
fractured, his collar bone and shoulder
blade broken in several places, and
suffering from various other injuries
and from shock.
The accident occurred at the dairy
at Waihee on Wednesday morning
when Mr.. Eichinger was preparing to
spray the big beast to keep off the
lies. That he escaped with his life
is probably due to his own presence
Of mind and to good luck After be
ing knocked down in the bulls first
rush, he was gored and trampled again
and again before he was finally able to
grab the ring in the animals nose and
by eXerting all his remaiing strength
hold it off until other employees who
were near were able to come to his
assistance and drive the infuriated ami
NAL away.
The bull in question is the splendid
big Holstein animal which was pur-
chased some time ago to head the
Sugar Company's dairy herd. 1t was
on exhibition at the county fair last
fall, where it took the championship
prize in the Holstein class While its
temper has long been known to be un-
certain this is the first time that it
has been the occasion of any serious
injury to anyone.
From the nature of Mr.. Eichinger's
injuries it is likely that he will be in
capacitated for a number of months,
though it is believed he will ultimate
ly recover without permanent injury.

No Apparent Change
In Strike Situation
Oahu Workers Remain Out But 9th
erS Continue To WOrk-PrObabIy
Financing Those Idle - General
Conspiracy To Control

The predicted strike Of plantation
laborers on all of the Islands of the
group failed to materiaIize and on the
surface the situation is much the same
as it was last week.
On Oahu the workers are still out.
1t is now coming to be generally be-
IieVed that the plan Of the leaders is
to keep the situation as it is for the
present with the outside Islands sup
plying the money to maintain the
Oahu strikers.
How long this situation can be main
tained is of course uncertain but many
persons believe that it will not last
more than & few weeks; that the labor
ers who are contributing to maintain
the Oahu strikers will by that time
have grown tired of their end of the
contract.
When this does occur, it is thought
that there may be a general strike
which will be of short duration.
Union Membership General
That the strike is more than simply
a difference of opinion with the labor.
ers on one side and the sugar planters
on the other, is evidenced here on
Maui as elsewhere in the territory
by all classes of japanese joining the
union. In Wailuku it is said that most
OF the merchants and professional men
belong to the organization, which has
been holding numerous meetings. Two
representatives of the Honolulu or
ganiZatiOn were here the latter part
of last week and the first few days
of this, meeting with the Japanese.
AS precaution against any dis
order that might occur should the
strike take place, Sheriff Crowell had
his force in the different districts in
structed to be ready to answer an
emergency call last Monday morning,
but on all Of the plantations an even
larger turnout of workers was report
ed the first of the week than usual.
The Wailuku Sugar Co., which has
been unable to start grinding on ac-
count of delayed machinery from the
mainland, started its mill this week
and everything is reported to be run
ming smoothly.
Plantations Will Not Yield
1t is very positively declared by
representative sugar men that there
will be no yielding to the workers
demands which are without justifica-
tion on other grounds than the
japanese have determined to control
the sugar industry in the Islands
Whether or not the planters will
make any move to force the issue is
not yet decided. 1t has been urged
that they bring the matter to a head
by barring from the plantations the
agents of the federation who are col
lecting funds for support of the Oahu
strikers, Others are advocating that
a general lockout be declared on all
of the Islands and maintained as long
as may be necessary.
Stock Market Gains Strength
One indication of the confidence
felt by the investing public in the out
come of the situation is the strength
of the sugar stock market. Most
shares, which dropped off several
points about 10 days ago have almost
fully recovered, and the demand CON
tinues strong even at the admittedly
high prices based on present dividend
returns.
