LANSING QUITS CABINET
OTHER MEMBERS MAY FOLLOW

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14-It was
said at the White House today that
there will be more designations from
the cabinet as a result of the resigna-
ton OF Secretary of State Robert Lans-
ing, announced last night, because he
was reprimanded by President Wilson
for calling meetings of the cabinet
during the presidents illness.
Joseph Tumulty, secretary to Pres
ident Wilson, said Il am not going
10 discuss the Lansing-Wilson con
trovcrsy, as they can both speak bet
ter for themselves,
Persons on the inside of the ad-
ministration and who know what has
been going on, say that Lansing's
call of cabinet meetings was only an
incident in the rupture between him
self and the president and that the
real reasons for the break extend
back over period of many months,
involving differences Of opinion in
policy.
The disagreement between the pres
ident and Lansing is said to antedate
tn entrance of the United States into
the war almost reached a breaking
pOint when Lansing issued his cele-
brated statement saying the United
States was daily being drawn nearer
and nearer to war.

DiStelIi To Stay
In Hotel Business
Retiring Manager OF Grand Says He
Has Backing To Buy Wailuku
Hotel Or To Build New Place
Sees Good Future Here.

Waikiki may have still another
hotel if the plans of Louis Distelli
mature as he says they will. Or there
may be the same number of hosteiries
but with certain changes in manage
ment.
Distelli, whose management of the
Grand Hotel will terminate the first
of the month on account of the sale
of that property to the Maui Hotel in
terests, announces that he has decid-
ed to stay on Maui and that he has
obtained all the backing he needs for
opening a new hotel here. He has a
number of locations in mind in case
it is decided to build, he states, but
it is also possible that he may secure
the Wailuku Hotel, owned by Mrs.
Trimble. This property, he says, he
has secured a price on from the own
er.
Distelli tried to get control of the
Grand Hotel after the deal with the
Maui Hotel people was on, but was
too late to accomplish this. He states
that he has the backing of capital in
Honolulu, represented by men who
are so confident of Maui's future as a
hotel field that they have urged him
to stay and are willing to back their
confidence with their money.

Women Auto Drivers
Mix Things AT Corner

Two automobiles, one driven by
Miss Ruth Parker, stenographer for
County Attorney Bevins, and the
other piloted by Mrs. w. b. o. Griep,
of Kahului, collided at the intersec-
ton Of Wells and Church streets,
shortly after 4 o'clock Wednesday af
ternon, both being damaged but
neither very seriously
Mrs. Griep was driving on Church
street and attempted to cross Wells
street to drive into the lane on the
opposite side, in front of Miss Parker
who was driving down. The latte.'
was not expecting this, as the lane
in question is blind one and little
used for vehicle traffic. Instead she
was counting on Mrs. Griep's either
turning up or down the street, and
intended then to turn into Church
street herself. The result of this mis-
calculation was that the Parker car
struck the Griep machine about amid
ships, but as neither was going fast
no one was hurt and the cars not ex-
tensively damaged.

School Children To
Have Ample Fruit
Efforts OF WOman'S Club Successful
Supervisors Provide Track Equip
ment - Committee On School
Needs At Work.

The Maui Womans Club is already
beginning to make itself felt in Maui
in a number of directions. Last Fri
day afternoon a committee from the
educational department of the organ
ization, consisting OF Miss Mary
Couch, DR.. Eva Missner and Mrs.
Paul MacCaughey, waited upon the
board of supervisors with number
OF requests and departed a short time
later with everything they went after
and little more, perhaps.
Moreover, the board seemed glad TO
grant their petitions, and they were
cordially invited by Chairman Kalama,
on behalf of the board, to come again
whenever they needed something that
the board could grant.
IrccN Equipment Secured
The first request of the ladies was
for materials for making hurdles and
vaulting standards for five or six
schools who are preparing to enter
teams in the track meet to be held
next month. The cost of the lumber,
it was stated would be about 800 The
supervisors not only granted the
amount asked for, but directed Coun-
ty Engineer Low to prepare blue
prints or working drawings so that
he several schools may more easily
make the apparatus, and to arrange
for having the materials cut to length
and delivered at the designated
schools.
Land For Fruit Trees
DR.. Missner told the board that
the ladies wished to encourage the
planting of fruit to help out the hun
ger for fruit among the children of
Maui and asked for a piece OF land in
Wailuku. The supervisors discussed
the matter briefly and ended by set
ting aside the old paddock at the
county stables, about 2 acres, ordered
that the district overseer see to hav
ing it plowed, and promised that the
stable man shall keep an eye on the
place and if necessary see to it's irri-
cation. The plot is to be planted to
papaias chiefly
Books For Schools

VIII. J. Cooper, entrusted with the
collection of magazines, pictures,
books, etc, for the schools, has al
ready received large contributions and

gaines are all illustrated ones and
will be interesting both for the read
ing matter and for the pictures they
contain.
The committee has also been given
number of base balls, tennis balls
and other sports adjuncts and Will
welcome any further donations,

Makena District To Get
Mail Via Ulupalakua

Postofice Inspector C. S. Ranger,
of San Francisco, and F. w. Vail, chief
clerk of railway mail service, with
headquarters in Honolulu, were in
Maui this week on general postoffice
work, and particularly in connection
with the pending closing of the Ma
kena postofiice on account of the re
signation of Mrs. Keliiaa, the post
master.
1t is understood that it was practi-
cally decided to have the mail handled
for that section by the Ulupalakua
office, and to have it brought in from
the Kula side instead of through Kihei
as in the past BY this change the
Kula Sanitarium and all residents
living in that section, who now have
to depend on WaiakOa as a postofiice,
will be able to have their mail de
liYered by the star route carrier
twice a week.
Should the trail between Makena
and Kihei, a distance of some miles
ever be opened as a road, it is prob
able that the postofiice department
would establish a rural route with a
circuit from Wailuku and return via
Makawao, Kula, Makena, and Kihei.
Such a service, however, is absolute
ly dependent upon the carriers be
ing able to make a circuit, such as
described.

Influenza On Maui
Still Growing Less

The influenza situation continues to
improve in Wailuku district, while
the spread through other parts of the
island is very slow. Health authori-
ties now hope that for the large part
Maui will escape any general scourge
such as she had year ago.
At the present time the number of
cases in Wailuku average about 8 or
8 a day, and most Of these are con
tact cases There were three deaths
since last week.
The overflow hospital improvised at
the Wailuku armory, and which at
one time contained upwards of so
patients, was closed this week, Malu-
Iani hospital being able now to care
for the cases that are coming in.
Hama is reported to have some
pretty sick people, but no indications
as yet that the disease is spreading
i'm an alarming degree.
L.ahaina is still practically free from
the malady. Puunene is no worse, and
Paia and Makawao, while having a
few cases. do not feel that the
tion is serious,

Supreme Court ReverSeS
Judgment Against Howell

BY an opinion of the supreme court
handed down about week ago in the
case of the Territory of Hawaii for
the use and benefit of the County Of
Maui VS.. Hugh Howell and the U. S.
Fidelity and Guaranty Co, the decision
of the 2nd circuit court is overruled
and the case remanded for trial
The case is the outgrowth of a dam
age suit brought a number of years
ago by Charles Reinhardt, Of Hama,
against the county, for injuries sus-
tanned through falling into a deep
washout in the road which had been
left unprotected Reinhardt won his
suit and an award of $175S65. The
county then in turn brought suit
against Hugh Howell, then county
engineer, on his bond, on the ground
that the accident resulted through his
negligence in not having the danger
Gus place safeguarded.
The verdict in the local court was
in favor Of the county, and it is this
verdict that the higher court has now
upset. The chief grounds for the re-
versal are, as set forth in the syllabus
"A judgment is not evidence against
a stranger to the suit in which it was
rendered to prove the existence of
any of the facts necessary to support
that judgment"
In other words the county used the
evidence in the Reinhardt case as its
own, and the supreme court says that
this cannot hold. The opinion is held
by Chief Justice Coke, Associate
Justice Kemp and Circuit Judge De
Bolt, sitting for Associate Justice Ed
ings, disqualified.
