Lorenzo Dondos, a Filipino employee of the Hawaiian Sugar Co., was murdered under somewhat peculiar circumstances last Saturday night. The man had retired for the night and was awakened by a knock on his door. He arose to answer the summons, and upon opening the door, a hand holding a dagger was thrust in, driving the sharp instrument deep into his abdomen and quickly withdrawn, the murder darting away into the gloom before those aroused by the wounded man's cries could catch a glimpse of him. Although given every possible aid, Dondos died in the hospital about an hour later. Inquest on the body is withheld until this afternoon in order to give the police a chance to work on the slight clues which are in their possession. A demented Filipino is held under suspicion, though as yet no conclusive proofs are available.
