Girls Body Is Found in
Stream; Husband Has
Vanished.

Police today dragged White river
for the body of John Foist, ex-con-
vict, in their attempt to solve the
mysterious death of his pretty di-
vorced wife, Miss Mary Watts, 81
whose body was found near the
Raymond street bridge Sunday.
After tracing actions of the cou-
pie, who last were seen together
Saturday, Detectives Clifford Becker
and Alfred Schultz requested police
seek his body in the river.
. Although relatives of Foist be-
live the couple may have made a
suicide pact, detectives today said ii
was possible Foist still was alive.
Intended to Remarry
Whether the girl or both of them
had been murdered by being hurled
into the river or had carried out
a double suicide pact can be deter
mined if his body should be found,
officers said.
When last seen. the couple was
walking toward White river on
Morris street, after leaving the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Botos,
1915 West Morris street. Botos told
The Times they left his house about
9:15 Saturday night.
Miss Watts had been with FoiSt
Saturday afternoon and night and
they were in high spirits, telling
friends they intended to remarry
soon and start all over"
Beaten; Gets Divorce
Members of Miss Watts family
told detectives that Foist often
threatened the young woman with
bodily harm. 1t was on the charge
of having been beaten by Foist
many times that Miss Watts OBJ
tanned her divorce from him in
September, 1890, Frank Symmes, her
attorney, said.
Marks on Miss Watts body were
a severe cut on one hip and a large
bruiSe under the left eye. Authori-
ties said the body cut probably was
caused by the dredging machine ca
BILE by which her body was held in
the river while the bruise may have
resulted from the woman being
struck and knocked into the river.
Negro Faces Trial
Questioning of Raymond Humph-
reg, Negro, 1872 West McCarty street,
Monday afternoon failed to reveal
any clews to the crime or suicide.
Humphrey is awaiting trial Thurs
day in municipal court on charges
of attempting to assault the young
woman on south side street Jan. 3.
Foist, %, of 1912 Silver avenue,
was released from the state reform
atory last October after serving
most of one to two-year term
for transporting liquor
Survivors of Miss Watts are her
mother, Mrs. Arveta Wilson and a
brother, John Watts, who lives at
513 South Senate avenue.
Funeral arrangements have not
been completed.

HONOLULU, Jan. 12.-Emergency
orders we're given troops at FIT.
Shafter today as citizens of Homo
lulu, aroused by island terrorism and
the murder Of g. young Hawaiian,
demanded martial law.
With Hawaii's rigid territorial law
already invoked to protect women
from further attacks, it was learned
that commanding officers of the
Sixty-fourth coast artillery were
prepared to answer riot calls on
ten minutes notice.
The call for martial law was made
at a meeting of 1000 prominent
Honolulu residents just as a new
grand jury was chosen to consider
indictments in the kidnapping and
Staying of Joseph Kahahawai.
Held On Warship
The accused, held aboard the
warship Alton at Pearl Harbor, are
Mrs. GRANGE Hubbard Fortescue, 40,
New York and Washington society
figure; Lieutenant Thomas H. Mas
sic, 26, her son-in-law, and E. j..
Lord, %, and Albert Jones, 81, en-
listed men.
Kahahawai, one Of five natives
recently tried on charges of attack
ing 20-year-old Thalia Massie, wife
of the lieutenant and daughter of
Mrs. Fortecue, was spirited away
and killed last Friday. His battered
body, wrapped in a sheet, was
found, officers claim, in an auto
mobile occupied by Mrs. Fortescue,
Massie and Lord.
The killing electrified Oahu is
land Fl. Shafter guards are on the
alert twenty-four hours day.,
company streets behind the bar
racks are filled with loaded ma
chine guns, riot rifles and tear gas
smoke candles, and waiting nearby
stand transport trucks.
Troops are being drilled in bay
onet maneuvers. The men of bat
terry F. even were called out after
dark for advance training, it was
learned.
Bare Prison Scandal
Meanwhile, the ridiculous con-
ditions at Oahu prison, which is in
side Honolulu city limits, were dis
closed. Prisoners were walking out
with guards al.u TRUSTEES, visiting
friends or relatives, and then vol
unfairly returning.
1t was revealed that guards were
attending a New Years eve party
when Louis Kaikapu and Daniel
Lyman, two prisoners described as
dangerous walked out of the
main gate.
Kaikapu invaded the home of an
American couple and attacked the
young American matron, who was
alone in the house.
Immediately, Governor General
Judd invoked the rigid territorial
law, creating a territorial police
force. This threatened to open a
breach between the government and
Sheriff Gleason.
Branded Malicious
The conflict between naval and
civil authorities regarding sex
crimes was intensified when the
governor general branded as ma
licious and eXagge. ated," the claims
of navy officers that white women
we're not safe in Honolulu.
Governor Judd made his aSser-
tons in a cablegram to Victor s.
K. Houston, territorial delegate
after Secretary of Navy Adams
ordered naval authorities at Homo
lulu to refuse TO surrender Lieut.
MasSie 10 civil authorities without
the departments permission.
