japanese Gets Badly
Tangled in Law and
Cannot Get Untwisted

Higasiguchi proprietor of a Japan
ese restaurant appears unable to keep
clear of the law. He is involved for
third time within a week. 1t is only
about six months ago he took over
the restaurant and he needs the ser
vices of an interpreter when involved
in court proceedings. He was arrest
ed on Sunday for alleged violations Of
the prohibition law at his place of
business.
This Japanese was in the magis-
trate's court about a week ago in a
civil suit for wages brought by an en-
ploye This divulged to the Industrial
Accident Board that the man had an
employe or employees without protect
ing them by insurance and he was or
dered before the board to explain on
Thursday. He agreed to, and did, take
out a policy before the board adjourn
ed. And on Sunday came his arrest
under the prohibition law since which
he has not had his hearing.

Rival Chinese
Leaders Ready
For Big Clash
Presidents Are Helpless to
Prevent and Sit Back While
Generals Prepare; Railroad
Traffic Cut Of

PEKING, April 24-Railroad com
munication to the south OF here has
been cut off. Gen. WI Pei Fu's troop
movements has caused an interruption
on the Peking-Hankow railroad and
Chang Tsolai has cut the Pekins line
Aside from these facts the situation
is unchanged except for the rapid con
centration of troops by both generals.
A survey made by military attaches
shows that Chang has $4,000 troops
of whom $4,000 are in the Chill pro
vince; $4,000 about 20 miles souUn OF
Tientsin and 10000 about u miles
southwest of Peking.
Wu is continuing his northward ad-
vance and has 10000 men at paO.ting-
fu. the capital of Chill; 10000 in
Human province and $4,000 marching
from the Shan-si province TO rein
force them.
People Not Interested
The opinion prevails that Chang de
sires to delay giving battle until funds
arrive from Mukden while WI desires
a quick conclusion because he is short
of funds and is levying on the country
he occupies for expenses
The people appear to be apathetic
but President Hsu Shi Chang and his
cabinet are unmistakably anxious. The
president has written to both generals
urging them to spare the country and
warning them against the danger of
causing foreign Intervention. He
reiterated his ultimatum that he will
resign if civil war ensues and explains
that he is powerless while chiefs with
large armed forces are disobeying his
orders.
A radiogram received Saturday night
by the American Legation Exchange
says that DR.. Sun Vat Sens eXpedi-
tion against General WI Pei Flu, COM
mander of the Central Chinese forces
has been definitely abandoned.
This is regarded as an indication
that Sun Vat Sen will throw mis- en-
tire strength against Marshall Chang
Tso-lin, high commissioner for Man
churia.
Previously it was reported that
Chang had depended on DR.. Suns sup
port in his campaign against INu Pei
Flu.
An American gunboat now stationed
in the Yang-tze river near Marking has
wirelessed that Wu Pei Flu is growing
stronger and is winning the support
of the rich Yangtze provinces.

Governor Harrington has taken the
matter up with Land Commissioner
Bailey it is reported, the latter is to
report on lands that are available.
Information as to the type of hospi-
tal or sanitarium that would institut-
ed is yet lacking, whether it would
he for tuberculars, for patients suf-
sering from other disorders or for all
types.
Congressional action would be nee
cessary for its establishment and for
an appropriation for building.

Use of Knives Meets
With Frowns in Court

Juan Ramos, a Filipino contractor
employed in raising cane on the II. c.
6, S. COmpany's plantation at Puunene
was found guilty of assault upon Ven
ancio Revilla with dangerous weap-
on and sentenced this morning by
Magistrate Harry Mossman in the dis
trict court at Wailuku and sentenced
to pay a fine OF 800 and costs of the
court.
The case dates back to April 14th,
when, according to the stories told by
both plaintiff and defendant, quarrel
arose between the two men over other
Filipinos that were working for them
According to the plaintiff, Revilla,
plantation laborers came to him seek
ing work at cutting cane. Revilla it
seems, is also a contractor with the
Puunene mill but employed in differ
ent occupation. Needing men Revilla
glady acquiesced and took the men in
to his employ. Shortly afterward, the
story goes, Ramos came to the room
in which Revilla lived and accosted
him asking why he took men away
from his employ. Revilla denied the
formers charge, claiming he did not
for Ramos. A quarrel ensued and
up and faced the defendant who, sri
Revilla, at the time lying in bed, got
up and faced the defendant, who ris-
ing to high pitch of anger drew
pockt knife and slashed the plaintiff
across the back of the hand.
In court this morning the defendant
claimed that Revilla had cane knife
in his bed and had precipitated the
cutting by striking him twice on the
back with the cane knife. His story
however different from the one he told
on preliminary examination in the alb
sence of the plaintiff.
Assertions and denials occupied the
greater part of the trial and Revilla,
claiming 10 have known Ramos in the
Philippines, said that he was at all
times a dangerous man and had been
in trouble on many occasions This
Ramos denied.
In pronouncing sentence Magistrate
/ MOssman laid stress on the fact that
/ the use of knives was not to be en-
/ couraged and although he felt that a
| Jail sentence should be imposed he
would be lenient owing TO the conflict
ing testimony. He warned Ramos 10
keep clear of the court hereafter The
Filipino paid the fine. Prosecution
was conducted by Wendell +. Crockett

Wonderful Memories
Shown by Pasmore
Trio of Musicians

A good many years before the
Great War three learned professors
of music were gathered in the recep-
ton room of one of the large Berlin
Conservatives waiting to pass judg-
ment on applicants for admission to
the school, The first students to en-
ter were three young Americans
girls, the sisters Mary, Suzanne and
Dorothy Pasmore, who played the v1o-
lin, piano and cello and will be heard
at Kahului Tuesday evening next.
They got out their instruments
with fear and trembling and turned
up, for this was their first meeting
with the formidable German profess
sors. AS they stood with bows poised
ready to begin playing a Mendelssohn
Trio, one of the professors suddenly
glared at them and almost shouted
where are your notes?" The little
cellist meekly replied 1--WE never use
our notes. We play from memory"
play trios from memory? Impossi-
ble!" answered the Herr Professor
and retired to a corner with his col
leagues where they held a whispered
conference over these extraordinary
Americans who dared to actually play
chamber-music "Auswendig".
Finally they were allowed to pro
ceed, and after a few minutes the
frowns on the faces of the gentlemen
relaxed and they listened with in
creasing signs of appropriation. Al
the close of the first movement, the
three girls were overjoyed when they
were told that they were accepted
as members of the artist class and
hot h. 10 hn tod i,, n
public pupils recital in the course oi
few weeks. They continued to play
from memory, which had been theii
custom since early childhood anC
when they were finally ready to make
a formal debut they astounded the
public and the critics by playing {
program of three complete trios il
one evening entirely without notes
The present pianist of the Trio
Marie Sloss, has remarkable mem
ory as shown by the following Incl

SlOss had never seen or heard thi

days and after coaching for two day

During the temporary retirement o

Ultimatum

the Russian principle of nationaliza-
tion of industry is blocking progress

ten powers which stipulates that the
signatories expressly reserve for their

German treaty that may be consider
ed contrary to existing treaties"

tie definitely the differences between
Louis Barthou, French vice-premler
and DR.. Wirth, German chancellor
which arose from Barthou's charge
that military treaty existed between
Russia and Germany. The German
issued statement declaring this
charge, untrue.
