HAS A PROBLEM
NORRIS-MIDWAY
Colonel Charles J McCarthy, of the
harbor commission, brought up n
question at the meeting of the com
mission this afternoon which may up
tet the rules and regulations for tho
lemoval of freight from the wharves ,
The manor has ueen referred to me
attorney general for an opinion.
He cleed two cases In which the
question might come up. The first la
one In which freight Is consigned to
a consignee and the bill of lading sent
to a -bank with the draft for piymcnt.
Tho consignee cannot remove the
freight from the wharf until ho pays
the draft and he may not bo nblo In
do this for a month or more. Tho
question to bo decided Is as to whe
ther the commission can take pro
ceedings against the bank, as nomi
nal owners of the goods. In regard to
the demurrage dues that must arlso
and still further as to whether they
can sell the goods to make theso
good. ,
The second caucus one In which the
consignee Is unablo to pay the freight
charges within tho ftme required for
the removal of freight under the re
gulations. In this case tho steamship
company Is the nominal owners.
The opinion of the nttornoy g n
cral as to what tho commission cm
do In either case will In all probabil
ity be brought up at the next meet
ing of the board.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. Rear Ad
miral Charles K. Clark, former com
mander of the battleship Oregon
when It made Its famous voyage
uround tho Horn. Is In Washington.
He has intimated that he would be
willing to return to active service for
the purpose of taking the Oregon
through the Panama canal to the Panama-Pacific
exposition. He heartily
approves of the plan to have the old
Oregon lead the world's navies In the
first trip of warships through the ca
nal.
That Rear Admiral Clark be restor
ed to the active list and promoted .to
the rank of vice admiral, and that he
raise his flag for the first time on tho
Oregon for this trip through the ca
nal, Is a suggestion that had Its orig
in with naval ofllcers who served un
der Clark.

WOOD GIVES HAWAII
BOOST AT PORTLAND
PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 1. Exten
sive Government work nt Honolulu is
making the Island of Oalm veritably
the Gibraltar of tho Paclllc Ocean, ac
cording to II. P. Wood, recretury of
the Hawaii Piomotlou Commltieo, who
was In Portland yesterday, en route
to Vnn vomer, I). C, where ha will em
bark for the Islands.
"Tho Nation that controls Hawaii;
says Mr. Wood, "controls the Pacific
Ocean, and the United States Govern
ment lias not been letting any oppor
tunity escape for making more leituin
her position on the Islands. Extens
ive fortifications, equipped with the
finest modern guns for coast defense,
ure rushed forward, and Honolulu
practically will soon be Impregnable
against attack from tho sen. At Pearl
Harbor tho Government is erecting
drydocks that will be, when complet
ed, the largest In any of the waters
controlled by our Nation. About ten
thousand soldiers will be stationed
permanently In the Islands.
"Honolulu Is tho key to the Hawaii
an Islands, for there Is no other har
bor of size 111 any of the other Islands.
With Honolulu fortified as she Is to
be fortified, tho grip or the United
States on the Pacific Ocean will bo
pretty sufo."
Canal llencllt Predicted.
Mr. Wood believes that tho open
ing of tho Panama Canal will Increase
the trade between tho Islands nnd the
cities of the Paclllc Coast rather thus
divert It through the canal to Atlant
ic ports. The opening of the canal,
he asserts, will vastly Increase ship
ping facilities on tho Coast, while the
producers in tho Hawaiian group will
still send their goods to the nearest
American markets.

ON HAWAII PROBABLE
(tfpcclnl II ii 1 1 el In Correspondence.)
11 1 1.O, Oct. 10. According to ull
rumors a lively wur for the tralllc
between llllo and the Volcano house
is to bo waged in the near future, witli
the Volcano Stubles on the one hand
and the Volcano House nnd the llllo
Railroad company on the other. The
trouble seems to have arisen from
the fact that many tourists prefer to
make the trip from llllo to the vol
cano and return by automobile, all
the wuy, Instead of taking tho train
to Glenwood anil then transferring
to the nuto-bus. The railroad people,
It is understood, charge that tho Vol
cano Stubles has been drumming up
this trade to their detriment unci now
propose to reciprocate by going into
tho automobile business themselves,
It Is understood, though no authority
can be definitely stated, that tho llllo
Railroad Company and the Volcano
house have combined to purchase two,
one and a half-ton tfucks, which are
to be operated between Glenwood and
tho Volcano, cutting down tho rate by
one dollar from the price which Is
now charged by the Stubles.
As far us can bo ascertained the
Volcano Stables Is taking no action
as yet, though it Is rumored that they
have obtained it lease of ground in the
vicinity of tho Volcano House, upon
which they will erect their own
stubles, tearing down those which ale
now in use on the Volcano I louse
lease. Manager Wright declined to
have anything to say for publication,
also stating thut be had only heard
rumors that such it combination was
planned and that It had not come to
him otllclally In any way,
