The American national air Is the national nlr except when the band on the Italian cruiser Elba plays It then It Is "Hall Columbia." A little mistake occurred this morning aboard the cruiser which showed that the lend er of the band wan several years behind the progress of musical regulations In the American navy. As the S. S. Hong Kong Maru back ed out of the Bishop slip this morning, bound for San Francisco the band on the Italian cruiser began playing. The sailors were drawn In line on the cruiser. The demonstration was out of compliment to Rear Admiral Carlo Mtrabello formerly commander-in-chief of the Italian Chinese station who is now on the Hong Kong Maru en route to Italy to take the portfolio of Minis ter of Murine. A number of selections were played by theband and numerous rounds of cheers were given by the crew. The band leader ordered his men to play the national air of the United States and the band burst into "Hall Columi-.a." They played the selection correctly enough but It was not our national air, During the Spanish war the "Star Spangled Banner" was select ed as the national air of America and has ever since been recognized as such.

LEGISLATORS ON THE RACK SESATIONAL REPORTS OF THE FEDERAL INVESTIGA TION INTO THE SCANDALS OF THE LAST SESSION BECKLEY'S DESK HAULED ACROSS THE STREET FROM THRONE ROOM TO GRAND JURY ROOM. The Federal grand jury is making some of the members of the House feel decidedly uneasy. Speaker Beckley's desk in the Throne room was sent for by the jury and unlocked in the jury room in the presence of Bccklcy, as it had been suggested that the vouchers were there, but they were not found. The desk has remained in the Throne room, locked up, since the session, and Bccklcy didn't want to open it until the grand jury got through, in view of rumors that it' contained some documents which are wanted. After the jury got through it was turned over to Bccklcy, whose private papers were in .some of tl)e drawers. The doings of the Chinese fund committee arc a subject of special investigation. It is understood that the testimony of Representative S. F. Chillingworth tended to seriously incriminate' the chairman of the committee. The vouchers for the committee's expenses, it is stated, contained an item of $80 for legal services in preparing the report, but no such services were rendered. Kumalac was chairman of the com mittee. Enoch Johnson, who is said to have been paid the fee, has also been subpoenaed as a witness. Kumalac has been before the jury three times and is still kept in attendance. Nearly all the members are still held at the grand jury rooms, though many have already testified once. Several who have been heard have been finally excused, among them being KcKinoi, who has return ed to Maui, Jaeger, Harris, Chillingworth. -:o;- Election Gontes Has Been Filed HOME RULERS ASK THE SUPREME COURT FOR A RE COUNT OF THE BALLOTS CAST IN THE RECENT ELECTION CLAIM THAT THE REPUBLICANS WERE WRONGLY GIVEN ELECTION CERTIFICATES.
