STOP DUELS
IS DEMAND
OF GERMANS
BERLIN, Dec. 28. — Prohibition
V
of duelling in the German army and
navy is urged by the newspaper
Germania in commenting upon the
order issued by Emperor Charles of
Austria, forbidding the practice in the
Austro-Hungarian army and navy.
“This inhibition,” says the Ger
mania, “will awaken an echo of sat
isfaction in the widest circles in Ger
many and will give renewed expres
sion to the repeated command that
competent officials put an end to this
duelling nonsense in Germany. Noth
ing can be achieved with half mea
sures and nothing short of ar order
prohibiting duelling without restiic
tions or reservations will prevent
further sacrifices through this m'i
quated method of restituting honor."

PROVIDE FOR
WOUNDED MEN
IN WAR ZONE
WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 28. —
Wounded Americans brought back,
fiom France will be distributed in
permanent hospitals located so as to j
bring each convalescent soldier with- -1
in reasonable distance of his home.
The plans now being executed by
Surgeon General Gorgas provide for a
wide distribution of all the war hos
pitals, including the “reconstruction”
hospitals at which men with more or
less permanent injuries will be given
treatment and instruction to fit them
for an independent life.
Figuring on the greatest possible
casualties, for the ultimate army of
two or more million men, Gorgas’
plans will provide hospitals for 100.
000 wounded.
Some of the men that come back
will be suffering from mental distur
bances, nervous from the stress of
war. For those the plans include a
hospital at the port of arrival with
facilities for expert classification, nec
essary because not a few will be in a
convalescent stage. For these treat
ment in an asylum for the insane may
be unnecessaiy. There will be a gen
eral hospital equipped with all nec
essaiy appliances.
After the men recover they can be
given work in the service suitable to
them. For those so unfortunate as to
require prolonged care on account 01
mental disturbances there will bo
suitable accommodations.

WILL OF QUEEN TO
BE INVESTIGATED
BY GRAND JURY •
HONOLULU, Doc. 17.— The grand!
jury will investigate the will of Queen
Lilioukalani, which has been contest
ed. Sam Kamaskai, a witness, admits
that he was not present when the will
was drawn. He said he signed it la
ter. The attorneys representing John
F. Colburn, who raised doubts regard
ing the will, have decided to withdraw
the probate application. They believe
a conspiracy is on foot to invalidate
the document, and will aid in the pro
secution of persons found connected
with the plot.
