if it wero diamonda, for the newa-- quickly spread that the city waa with- -
. out its uauai supply.'.. The fact that there was aevere, iftemporary, shortage in beef in --Honelulu .first became kuowa yesterday
. Wrning when both the Ualon. Grill andthe Akiander, young hotel were. uhable to fill their neat order for theday. . Yesterday afternoon it was atat- -
d that the shortage might continuef"or month at least.,.; tliere was plenty Of pork and mt-- 'ton in the markets, but no "beef yea-tnrd- sy
.taornlng. A., small ablptnentetme In later, and waa atsinoutea inthe afternoon as far as it, would go. .Nona from California. - '
At the Hawaii Meat Company's of-fle- e
the shortage was explained by thefact that m large order of Californiabeef had been cancelled by 1hem,nirda sudden decrease In marketable ,et--tl- e
from. Hawaii brought about tem-
porarily strained, condition.,
' A small shipment came in late iath morning, and other, small ship-fon- ts
are expected during the week,the company said. It was thought
' that t,here would be enough beef tdsupply ine, demand if it did not at anytime rise abore , normal, although noassurance to that effect sould be giTen.
A scarcity of. beef would, probably, tie felt for a month, to eomeaaid the'tneat company., The scarcity of Islandbeef would undoubtedly, continue, asthe severe drought on ' Hawaii had
v much roduesd the number ;pf market- -
"'"No bn was refused beef yesterdayat Tee Hop's market, 'although it wasadmitted there that beef was soaree
' and wouldcontinue so for some time.They aspect to bare enough te filltheir regular orders. . . A
Uar Teach IjeaaonJJany of the small butcher shops
about towm were out of1 beef all dayyesterday. Tbey bad sold out on Sat-urday or Sunday end could obtain nomore from the; meat aompanies yester- -
' day ' morning. If the present supplyholds out they will probably be ableto get beef today. ' ,. ''It may be a good thing for Hawaii to have a temporary shortage ofbeef," said a member of the( women'scommittee. " as we will then learn howimportant it is to conserve it in orderthat our armies may ' not feel itsJack.".
A' number of . well knows eltisens.among them the proprietor of a down-tow- a
cafe, said that even at the costof possible short age Hawaii should depend on Island beef alone, and not onthe imports, article. It seemed To.bethe ropsenfliis of opinion thatiif. enoughbeef eouli) not be raised herb to feedthe Donulation. other foods and substitutes should be used rather than to callon the mainland to . make good theshortage. ' ,
If beef continues to be scarce, it ispossible 'that the women's committeemay call lor one oeertess day a weenin additioa to the regular meatless day.'On that day other meats such as porkand mutton, or poultry, could take theplace of steaks and roasts, t lsb couldalso be used on more than one day awefk,1 "anfl the ever-faithf- pork and'beans is always at hand as a beef subtmtevn .'.

Splitting up into separate entities, some of themsmall and weak, Russia is in no position to putinto the field arid keep there a great army. Howthe riven country could hold back a Teuton ad-
vance is not clear and the prospect is not a pleas-ant one but it is less disconcerting than the pros-pect of Russia on friendly terms with the CentralPowers.
Slowly, but none the less surely, is the under-sea campaign of Germany being broken. It istrue that the last week of the old year showedlosses that would make, this assertion appeargroundless but taking results for the month andfor the year there was occasion for feelings ofncouragement. Germany is losing submarines

Britain's war aims, as outlined on Saturday bythe British premier indicate determination andshow nothing of any discouragement. He showsthe righteousness of the Allied cause and thatthere can be no going back.
In this country events have followed thick andfast one upon the other. Railroads are under gov-trnme-
control. Passenger service is giving wayto the movement of freight. The taking over ofthe transportation lines was nothing short of revo-lutionary. Other similar courses may be adopted.Individual rights must noA' git way to the rightsof the whole people as represented by their gov-ernment. There is conscription of the railroadsjust as there is conscription of the young men ofthe country and it may be that there will be con-tcripti-
of other industries as well, the coalmines, the meat packeries, other industries essen-tial to the winning of the war and this may be fol-lowed by a conscription of lalor to keep them go-ing at full speed.
In the actual hostilities the Italians and Allieshave more than held their own in Northern Italy.The Germans have made an attempt at a driveupon British positions and were generally re-pulsed, to exception bring some .small iorwardpositions, while in Palestine the successes uf theBritish arms arc being continued.

LOSS OF CARGO OF
"FREIGHTER HEAVY;
Hatch of Shinyo Maru SecondOpened and Water and Steam '
Pumped In All Day .
The freighter Hhiayo Warn ! whichhas been anchored off port Since herarrival at midnight Friday with hercargo afire, was docked, on the Ewnside of Pier 7 nt eleven o'clock yes-terday morning. Harbormaster William R. Foster removed the batch covering early in the morning and exposedthe burning rnrgn to the air for near-ly nn hour. No flames, however, wereobserved and it is believed tbat anyfire that might have withstood thewater and steam which hss beea pour-ed iato the hold since the blsse. wasdiscovered Inst Wednesdsy morning, isconfined to smouldering in the cottonaad rag bales which form the greaterpart of the cargo in the Mo. 2 or mainhold.
The Matsoa tug Intrepid lay along-side the 8hinyo all day. Water andstesm were being poured Into ths heldup to three o 'slock when the waterwas turned off. Steam waa forced intothe bold throughout the night. Thevessel will probably be moved enrlythis morning to the pier near the Inter-
-Island coal conveyor at the Eweend of the harbor, and work of dis-charging the cargo in this hold willcommence immedintely sfter the rhnngeof berth.Much Cargo Lost
It is estimated tbat there are 1500tons of cargo in the main hold bal-ed rags and cotton, eauetie soda, leath-er aad heavy machinery. Captain Foo-ter says that all except the machloerywill represent n totl loss for there isnow eleven feet of water la the bold.What has not been damaged by waterand fire will most certainly be ruinedby the steam which has been pouringin through the batch covering andventilators since last Wednesday morn-ing. v'.:-.'-
Captain Foster waa lowered dowa tothe tween decks when , the hatchcovering waa removed yesterday morn-ing while the vessel waa at anchorageoutside. He remained bnt a few seconds for the fumes were unbearable andto have walked back any distance wouldhave been little short of suicide. Theventilators to the other three holdswere opened bnt no' fames or foul airwaa detected.Firemen Visit Ship ,
Two firemen from the Central Sta-tion visited the RMnyo as she lay atPier 7 yesterday. This was at the In-
stance of Harbormaster Foster whowished the department to be acquaintedwith the ship, in ease the fire shouldbreak ont unexpectedly during thenight. , .
., While it is pcnerallv believed br allconnected with the Bbinyo that thedanger point la past, there is no tell-ing what might develop when the holdin opened thia morning. Wbether wordwaa received from the owners of thevessel yesterday, could not be learnedlast night.
