HONOLULU. March l (N.AN.A).- -
Eyerv possible kind of rumor and opin-
ion can be heard on the Massie case.
There have been stories OF confessions,
equally emphatic denials, and every
kind of SANDER.
So serious did the discord become
that the Chamber of Commerce re-
tanned Frank Thompson. who is now
chief counsel for Mrs. Granville For
tescue and the other defendants in the
Kahahawai murder case, to make a
Thorough INQUIRY into the MaSsie al
fair and also hired detectives to make
INQUIRIES in the underworld OF Honolulu
Five thousand dollars was offered for
information that would help solve the
many unexplained angles OF the case
At the urging of Gov. Judd another
investigation was begun, with Harold
T. Kay, deputy attorney general, in
charge. So far. although there have
been many stories lmpllcatmg other
men in the assault, nothing has been
learned or corroborated which would
indicate that others than the men
charged with the crime are involved.
But the doubt of their identity still ex-
lists in the minds of many and colorS
the feeling of Honolulu.
Return to Jail Willingly.
While this uncertainty was building
up and naval officials were demanding
action, an unfortunate incident occurred
which did much to complicate the al
ready dangerously complicated Situa-
ton. After the jury disagreement the
five defendants in the attack on Mrs.
Massie were admitted to bail. There
was a suggestion by newspapers and
naval officers that it would be best

until "a hours after the escape. Then
notice was sent out asking their cap
ture, dead or alive An hour after
their escape became known there was
also reported an assault on woman
in her home.
Fugitive Identified.
The crime was in the morning. just
after the woman's husband left for
work. The man bound and gagged the
woman, and stole all TIC. valuables ne
could ind, and the husbands tuxedo
coat. In the hospital the woman said
she Identified Kaikapu from his rogue S
gallery picture
Meantnne kalkapu had wandered all
over the city, although the police had
sent out his description and were sup
posed to be watching for him. He.
at one time near a police station and
watched the police going in and out
Whlle ne wore the stolen tuxedo coat.
Somebody stepped him and asked
him why he was wearing a tuxedo. and
he said: oh, I'm a waiter" Toward
evening he drove out of town, and at
Red Hill was captured, still wearing
the coat. The ease with which he
passed policemen reused the people to
indignant protests
Three weeks later a japanese wom-
an, out with a friend, said she had
been assaulted, and when Lyman was
caught he was accused, but denied the
crime. Lyman was at liberty month
III section where a man could easily
hide, but in that interval he stole sew
eral automobiles and robbed houses
and when his hiding place was found it
contained everything from field glasses
to women's clothes.
A few days after these men had
escaped, on January 8. Joseph Kaha-
hawai-, one of the alleged asSailants OF
Mrc. Massie, was murdered. He had
been enticed into car in front Of the
court house.
Body Found In Auto.
A short time later the car was stop
ped on the way to Koko Head and IN
it was found his body, wrapped in q
sheet. Mrs ForteScue. mother Of Mrs
Massie. was driving the car. Also In
it were Lieut.. Massie, husband of the
woman Kahahawa had been accused
of attacking, and , j. Lord, a Navy
enlisted man. Shortly after Albert o
Jones, another enlisted man, was ar
rested and all four were charged with
the murder of Kahahawai. 1t was diff
ficult to obtain an indictment and one
was practically forced by the court
The murder of Kahahawai exploded
the entire situation. Then came talk

cations and the dispatch of Seth Rich

to keep the men in prison for fear Of
attacks upon them, but it was manda-
tory upon Judge Steadman to admit
them to bail, so they were released.
Since the murder of Kahahawai they
have willingly gone back to Jail.
December Il last, not long after the
trial. Horace Ida, owner of the car
which figured in the Massie case, and
one of the defendants, was kidnapped
by 20 men, taken into the mountains
and beaten in an effort to get him TO
confess. There have been frequent
rumors that he did SO, but they lave
never been suhstantiated. and II he did
no action was taken. All the defend
ants have been adamant, so far as is
known, in resisting influences to bring
from them some sort Of confession.
Ida was SO badly beaten he was taken
to a hospital 1t was suspected Navy
men had something to do with the
beating and Admiral Stirling was asked
to psrade his men at Pearl Harbor SO
Ida could try to identify his assailants.
The admiral refused on the ground
that to do so would subject Ida 10
greater danger, an indication OF tie
feeling which exists as the result OF the
assault. He did, however. have all the
men who had been away from the bar
racks that night paraded in front OF
Ida, who could not identify any of
them.
Women Carrying Pistols.
All pressure was brought on officials
after this to have the other defendants
put into jail. where at least they would
not be the object of attacks, which
would again infiame public opinion.
Many women were carrying pistols
when they went out at night, and there
was almost nothing discussed but the
Massie case ard the way in which it
had been handled. In the midst of
this excitement came another tragedy
which aroused people to the point of
hysteria.
Two men escaped from Oahu Prison
New Year eve. The turnkey, who is a
hula dancer and instructor, had been
absent from the prison four hours. One
of the prisoners. Lyman. had been serv-
ing a life term for murder. The other,
Kaikapu. which means forbidden
waters" was in for burglary. They in
tended to get liquor, return to the
prison, and have New Year eve party.
Jails in Hawaii have been run on a
rather liberal system. Unfortunately,
they did not come back. Lyman had
been working two years at the John
Rodgers Airport, driving truck, and
had had many opportunities to escape
If he had wished.
What they did Immediately after the
escape is not exactly known. When 1t
was found they had got away the
matter was reported to Gov. Judd, but
police and public were not informed

The trial of Mrs. Fortescue and her
co-defendants Is set for March 10.
Their counsel sought a delay TO permit

mainland to join the defense.
Montgomery Winn, attorney for the
defendants. said w. l. Griffith. outstano-
ing Los Angeles barrister, had agreed to

row, noted Chicago criminal lawyer, be

Robbed Of $3.50 First
Authorities expressed belief that the
assault on Mrs. Hope was incidental to
robbery. Her attacker, whom she de-
scribed as an Oriental, first robbed her
of $3.50
The paroled convict held was q Japa-
nese answering the general description
of her assailant. Police, however, said
they had no evidence to show he was
implicated. The other prisoner was a

WHAT MICKEY WANTED

Mickey, in both his light and heavy moments, has been aching for years ito get a punch at Max Schmeling. That fellow" he in- sists, ''is made for me. I'll mur- der him"
 On the basis of Schmeling's showing in defeat by Jack Shar- key, Mickey may do just that.
 Watching Schmeling, with youth, strength, punching power. stamnia all on his side but absolutely go- ing to waste as he fought the most doddering, spiritless battle of any heavyweight champion in de- fense of a tottering title, the con- viction grew that the young Teu- ton never will be a real cham pion.
 Schmeling lacks the spark that lifts a true champion to the great est heights of his career when the need for such a surge is greatest. The memory never will down of a Schmeling, his powers scarcely dis turbed, failing to do more than make gestures through the last five TO lnds of IS round title bat tie, against a tired, worn Shar- key, one-eyed old man who seemed certain to crumple before really determined onslaught.

EARTH FOOLS

CLEVELAND Sept. 3.-Even the Cleveland sport fans were fooled when Carmen Barth-a good Ital- ian name, Di Bartholemeo. ap- pears over his doorbell here,- tucked away the middleweight boxing tournament championship at the Olympics.
 Though he had been fighting for four years and had more than 60 engagements to his credit, in cluding some that had taken him to three city welterweight titles and one state welter crown, few saw in him a worlds amateur champion when he boarded the train here for California. But he won in decisive style.
 Earth is only 19 and weighs 152 pounds. It was Stella Walsh upon whom Cleveland relied o bring home titles, but her points went to the Polish team, and it was Earth who brought home the citys only Olympic championship.

fighting until he has been badly stung.
 He handled a bigger, stronger Sharkey with ease to get 15- round draw last summer. Schmel- ing, by comparison, will be the smallest heavyweight Mickey has ever tackled. The Teuton will weigh about l99, as usual, less than 20 pounds more than Walkers ITO.
 Although Mickey always has been hailed a1 free swinging better, he never has been really apprec- lated as boxer AS a welter- weight, Mickey was as clever and knowing as any of the contend CTS, and he had no trouble out spearing as skillful foeman as old Jack Britton. He will out class Schmeling as boxer.
 Mickey, too, hits harder than the Teuton with left hook particu- larIy a left smash to the body that Schmeling particularly de- tests. If there is any weak link in the schmeling armor, the two fights with Sharkey have proven that it is inability to stand up un- der body punishment. Walker revels in that sort of milling.
