hoped that the system of Inspection at

and thereby perhaps postpone for nil
Indefinite period the Introduction of the

Steam Navigation Co. lias

GUARDING PORTS
AGAINST PESTS
K. M. Khrhorn, Territorial superin
tendent of entomology, made an Inter
esting report for the month of March
to tho Hoard of Agriculture nnd For
estry this morning. His report says
In part:
During this month wo boarded 3r
vessels and found vegetable matter on
20 of them. Careful Inspection of nil
shipments gavo the following results:
Passed as free from pests, r12 lots;
fumigated, 33 lots; burned, 30 lots; to
tal Inspected, fiTC lots. -Rice
Shipments.
30,133 hags of rlco arrived during
tho month of March and, being found
freo from pests, were permitted to en
ter the Territory,
Pests Intercepted. '
In a shipment of plants from Japan
wo found a colony of ants (Formica
species) nnd some pupae, of a Tlpulfd
In the soil and a Lopldopterous larva
on the plants. All Roil was washod off
tho plants after these had been fumi
gated In tho usual manner. A passen
gor brought a bundle of largo double
Powering cheny trees. Wo found
them badly Infested with two scale In
Beets (Dlaspts pontagona and 1'seudno
nldla duplex), also somo brown velvet
Lichen. The trees wero refused en
try and hnvo beou destroyed.
Ono lot of Orchids arrived from Ja
va In a very dry stato, apparently
dead, but wo found a very lively col
ony of ants (I'rcnolcpls species) In tho
package, and fumigated tho shipment.
A small packago of mangoes In the
possession of n passenger on thu
transport Logan from Manila was con
fiscated and destroyed.
Forty-eight packages of fruit and
vegetables worn taken nway from Im
migrants at tho United States Immi
gration Station, which camo from Chi
na and Jnpnn.
There Is hut a narrow margin In tho
prices quoted by rival automobile lm
pprtlng concerns who entered tho list
as bidders for supplying tho City nnd
County I'ollco Department with a motor-driven
patrol wagon.
Tho von lla'mm-Ynung Company, it
Is believed, will be found lowest In
their figures for such a machine
At a regular meeting of the City
Fathers Inst night tho following ten
ders were received":
Tho Lynch Company, Seagrave car,
$t7.ri0, f. o. b. Honolulu.
Von Hamm-Young Company, Pack
ard, $5300, Pope-Hartford SUOOtf, and
Kissel Knr, Including starter and elec
tric lights, $3565,
Hnwallan Garage, Knox, $4500.
Schmnan Company, While $3650,
Federal $3400. Tleso figures, hovvev
er, did not Include lights or tho solf
starter. With theso added, tho Schuman bid, J
it is sain, will exceed that tendered by
tho von Hamm-Young Company to tho
amount of thirty-five dollars. l
Tho I'ollco Commltteo will decide
upon tho making of the nward, '
