r E? LTtfc W" 1 HAWAIIAN GAZETTE, TUESDAY, MAY 18, 1909. ! 'MVKF.KLY. THINGS ARE AB11U M E IN II ZONE OE mm (From Sunday's Advertiser.) The situation has not Improved any, and it is unlikely that the Japaneso will return to work Monday as they said thoy would when they struck oil work last Friday. Beport last night from Ewa plantation. Everything is quiet here, tho situation is unchanged, and we aro keeping tho mill going. Wo will finish up tho oil day as usual. Beport from Oahu Wo will not have so many men at work on Sunday as today, but ovorything is going ahead with tho now laborors. Tho fields aro being cleaned up and grinding goes on. Havo n'ot heard of any meetings today. Beport from Honolulu (Aiea) plantation at 11 p. m. last night. 1 Fires at Ewa Plantation. Tho following statement issued yes terday by E. D. Tonnoy, president of Ewa plantation, discloses pertinent rpcculatioa with regard to two fires which started on Ewa plantation after midnight yesterday morning but which, fortunately, wcro extinguish- 3d ucioro much uamago was done. Just how these fires started, or who was responsible for tlieni, does not yet appear. Mr. Tcnney's statement follows: "During the greater part of yesterday and Inst night tho laborers wcro holding meetings tho Indication seems to be that their original plan of formulating demands, to bo submitted to the management, and then returning to work on Monday, will be carried out. .This despite tho efforts of a rough clement, resident on tho kulcanas in tho Ilnnoulluli valley, who have, I endeavored to tho utmost extent to influence tho laborers to refrain from roturning to work. "Last night at 12 o clock there wns a flro in Field Kb. 20 and later, at 2 a. m., in Field No. 11 both of theso fires wero put out promptly by tho peonlo living near. Tho area bilrncd is insignificant perhaps not more than jn aero altogother. 1 am very doubtful if plantation laborers set these fires, llthough it is very significant to noto that both of these fields are plantation fields; that is, not fields cultivated by ;ontractors, and hence none or tho laborers havo any direct financial in them." Strike Breakers Plentiful. Striko breakers are plentiful and the limitations aro having no trouble sccur ing men in town at $1.50 per day to take tho places of tho striking labororB. On Friday nearly three hundred men wont to Aiea, and yesterday morning two trains wcro jscd to transport reinforcements. At 7 a. m. yesterday a special left for Honolulu (Aiea) plantation with -150 nen, including ilawailans, Porto IJieans, Portuguese and Chinese. On Monday noro will bo sent down, and at tho lame timo it is expected tuat a dratt f "breakers" will bo sent to On Monday the Japanese of Ewa ilantatiou who "walked out" on for "n holiday," as thoy expressed t, aro expected to go back to work ind they will then present their do-minds and await somo action on thorn leforo finally deciding whether or not Japanese Laborer Not a Tenant In Be Japaneso Strike. Is a Japaneso laborer occupying one of the plantation cottages a lesseo or tenant of tho plantation, to whom ten days' notice to quit must be given, oven after ho has, of his own accord, ceased to work for tho plantation? Tho Hawaiian is Section 20S9. This statuto applies only whero tho relation of landlord nnd tenant exists between tho parties, according to many Hawaiian cases. Tho authorities hold that a servant allowed to occupy a houso on tho premises of tho master without any express, letting or any fixing of rent, does not bccoino a tenant of any kind. This is surely truo if tho occupancy Is incidental to the employment and for tho benefit of tho employer 'in carrying on the work. McQuado vs. Emmons, 3? N. J. Law, 397, 399. 100 Mich. 330. 00 N.

It is enough if such occupancy is convenient for tho purposes of tho servico and was obtained by reason of tho contract of hire." Ilowman vs. Bradley, 151 Peun. St. 351, 17 L. It. A. "If tho contract i. o., of employment was rightfully terminated, then tho plaintiff's right to tho houso was at an end, and ho could bo lawfully put out of possession." 151 Pcnn St. 351, "Tho occupation of tho houso by McQuado and his family was part of his compensation for tho pcrformnnco of his engagement with tho de-fondant; it does not show any ilemiio of tho house; tho possession of Mc-Q u mlo wns tho possession of his employer ami, whoii ho was dismissed from tho sorvico ami tlio, legal relation existing betweon thorn thereby put nil end to, Ills right of occupation wns ended and his longer remaining an the promise of Ills master wus n trespass," Tho poisosslou of n servant Is tho poisesilon of Ms matter, and, if ho continue in ioeision after his employment has terminated, tho mutter has "legal right to lemove the furolturo and goods therein and to employ tho necessary force for that purpose," 00 N.

THE mm cut cane tomorrow (Sunday), working (Waipahu) plantation. to join tho striko by tying up The "striko breakers" tako their lunch with them from town and are brought back to town at tho closo of tho day's labor, being paid every day for their toil! As stevedoring work is ndtplentiful along tho waterfront just now thero is littlo troublo in picking up all tho labor needed for tho work now in hand. Mayor Fern, who is about as closely in touch with tho laboring clement ns any one, was asked to let tho Ilawailans who want work, know whero thoy could obtain it. In this way tho supply has been steady. , Tho work at Aiea, tkoroforo, has been picked up and the cono is going toward the mill and grinding is going on as before. Moad and Jarrott. It. D. Mead of tho Planters' Assochv tion and Sheriff Jnrrett went down tho lino yesterday to look over tho tion, tho Sheriff taking a look at tho topography of the country so as to quaint himself with tho location of tho various camps whero tho laborors aro quartered. On & Cash Basis. "When tho striko was started at Aiea and Wuipahu tho Japanese storokeop crs at once began doing business with tho strikers oti a cash basis. A reason for this iwas that ono of tho big mills of Honolulu which re-sacks Japaneso rico and sends it down in batches of a hundred bags at a timo, rcquirod cash from tho storekeepers beforo thoy would send new supplies. The strikors will bo required to pay ns thoy go along and in this way it is easy to figuro when they will come to tho end of their purso strings, and look to Makino and Ncgoro to supply the deficiency of food, etc. Lured- by Promises. A Japanese laborer from Aien, who was in town -yesterday, stated that ho was at tho end of his resources already nnd many more wcro in the samo pro dicament. However, ho said that ho and thoy would look to Makino to sup ply them, as thoy hnd understood Makino tb say thnt ho was worth about $40,000 and could see - the matter through wlnlo tho striko was in progress. If individual demnnds begin to como upon Makino, tho list is sure to lengthen out and tho strikers will havo ample opportunity to judgo whether Makino 's "$40,000" is tangible or not.

Tho Dlrlgo Is ono of the finest ships afloat, but Captain Goodwin, states that it will take more than money to induce him to run tho chances of having to undergo another such experience as he has just passed through. A story of terrific gales, thunderstorms Illuminated by (lashes of lightning, and bad weather almost from tho beginning of tho long voyage away back In October, 190S, until sho here yesterday Is what tho Dlrlgo brought. Hurricanes In which n smaller vessel would. In all probability, havo gono to tho bottom were encountered. Mountnlnous seas that wnshed tho decks and mado tho vessel almost unmanageable became a part of tho dally budget of events. But through It all the old Dlrlgo stood up, and yesterday morning she was sight ed off Diamond Head, being towed to her berth at tho Channel wharf Into last evening. ' Captain Goodwin tells tho tale of his ovenlful trip In few words, with tho exciting details left out. Ho docs not tell nil ho might of tho steadfast labor that was performed at tho pumps when the vessel was leaking badly, nor does ho wasto words in the dcscrlp tion of tho Incident when a bolt of lightning shot from tho sky and, In tho twinkling of an eye, converted what had been a fine piece of Ball-carrying timber Into a million tiny splinters. Things like theso Captain Goodwin doesn't wall over; but they wero enough, however, to mako him declare that, after over half a hundred trips around tho Horn, he'll never make another one.. "Wo left Baltimore," said Captain Goodwin, "on October 26, 1D08. Owing to a heavy galo which -was blowing from tho eastward, we anchored at Capo Henry and did not proceed to sea until the following; Friday. "We then sailed in company with tho ship Acme, which was bound for San Francisco, for; considerable time. Of course, wo stuck on canvas and tried to show a clean pair of heels to each other. For several days wo wero together, with strong west nnd north west winds blowing all tho time, "On Friday, November 6, wo had a heavy gale from southeast to southwest, during which we lost several sails and, lncldentully, left the Acmo behind. Tho loss of those sails was merely the beginning of our troubles however, for things en mo in bunches after that. Of course, tho first Ill-luck which bpfell us was when we ran into thb gale which delayed us off Capo Henry, thus forcing us to go to sea on a Friday. "During the terrific wind and tho heavy sea which came up, tho ship rolled from side to side, creaking and groaning, nnd, owing to tho cross-seas running ono from tho northwest and the other from tho southward tho decks were flooded fore and aft. It was a nasty situation. "At four p. m. on November 0 tho carpenter camo to mo and reported that tho ship was leaking. Ho also said that tlicro was a great quantity or. water in tho hold. 1 immediately wont down in tho lower hold, through tho lnzarct hatch and found tho water rushing in through a crack in a plato twclvo feet under water. To stop this, if possible, I mado a pad out of cotton batting, sonked it in whito lead, and placed it over tho crack. Then, over this, I fastened a plank tuat weugcu it in and stopped tho great part of tho inflow of water. "Thero was not any water in tho hold when tho pumps were sounded at eight o'clock that morning, but, when we had stopped tho leak, wo found that the hold contained two and feet of tho brino which had poured in. Perhaps you think 1 wasn't thankful that tho leak was whero I could get nt itl The crack was twclvo inches lung, and if it had been in a plaao impossible for mo to reach, I doubt very much if tho pumps could havo ship on tho ton of tho water. "Well, wo pumped out us much of tuo water as wo couiu, aim tiien i tooK up the iloor nnd hoisted tho rest up through tho .lazaret hatch, using big oil-drums to do tho work. Wo wero two days getting nil of that water out of tho ship. As tho leak was so far aft. I thought nt first thnt I tould build n bulkhead, fill it in with cement, stop tlio jenu, ana keep on my voyngo, i worked on this scheme for several days, but in splto of all wo could do and wo left nothing undono thnt wo could possibly think of tho water continued to forco its way through and wnth the cement away, Wo had to hoitt from forty lo fifty barrels of water out of the hold oeiy day, "Bo it seemed that T could do nothing, niul I decided to go into lllo for repairs. Two duys after tho gula wo Ightod tlio Acmo with her fnretopgab un t mutt gono, Hha had had a junto nf Ihu medicine which (ho elements hud been giving us, "The follow lug J'rlduy fateful day wo had another gale, ncconijmnloit by thunder and lightning.

"Now what troubles mo Is to discover wkeio tho hoodoo came ml a it because I Balled on n Friday or I was in oiupnny with the Ainiot "Our passage from Itio to C'npe Horn wns uneventful, light winds and fair weather prevailing nil tho way. Wo wcro in ltio long enough to collect a line crop ot bnrunrles oif tlio ship's bot tom, anil tlico mailo a difiorence of twenty-five miles per day ill our sailing. On the way to ltio wo lelt every cssol wo saw behind us, but, on tho barnacles, wo wero badly beaten by -every windjammer on tho trip here. Why, you could paddle n balo of hay faster than this ship will sail in light winds when sho is foul. And it's very annoying, especially when n fellow has a cancelling data to his charter so nonr nt hand. "We took tho southeast trades In SS degrees and had them, very light nnd unsteady, the lest of the voyage. Wo crossed the equntor on April 21, In 117 degrees west. From that timo until wo nrrlvcd here today wo had had alternate, squalls and calms and unsettled trades. "This eontful pnBsago ends my fifty-sixth and last passage around Capo Horn. I've had enough this time." Notwithstanding tho fact that her cargo Is composed of a heavy shipment ot coal, the Dlrlgo camo into port yesterday slick and clean as a whistle. Sho Is n beautiful ship, and has splendid cabin appointments, only surpassed by those on tho Bteam liners. Captain Goodwin was greeted by Joo Gllmnn, who Is agent for tho owners of the ship, yesterday ns well, as by a number of friends who have become acquainted with the genial skipper during his many visits to this port. Mr. Itay, the first officer on the Dlrlgo, Is also well known In this city, and thero was a quota of his friends at tho wharf to bid him "aloha" after tho long voy age. Tho Dlrlgo ts docked at tho Channel whnrf, where sho will dls. charge her coal. Captain Goodwin wroto tho follow ing description of lllo Janeiro, In which port his vessel was laid up for repairs: "The harbor of Rio do Janeiro Is one of tho best In the world. Tho water front of tho city Is ono continuous park or garden, and Is kept In flno order. They have a perfect electric light system and It Is the best lighted of any city I was ever In. I could see the loom of tho city lights when forty miles out at sea. The new Improve ments In the streets and buildings will compare favorably with any city In the world. The United States Is well represented by Mr. George Andereon, theConsul General, a courteous and agreeable gentleman who Is ready to nsslst one In any way ho can. 'The ono great drawback to lllo Is tho excessive heat In summer. Then everyone who Is able lives up In tho mountains nt Pctropolls. Tho facilities for repairing ships nro ns good tHoro as thoy aro at any port. Mr. Lagc of Iago nrothers Co., ono of tho most energetic, fair-minded and courteous gentlemen I ever met, has a plant nnd bonded warehouse where ho can store a cargo, repair n ship, or build you a. new ono If you want It, nnd send you on your wny with pleasant memories of the timo you spent at his Island. Owing- to tho excessive duties, everything Is very denr, all of which tends to mako ltio a good plnco to keep nwoy from If you can. It Is largely owing to American brains and American Inventions that It has been possi ble for both Brazil and the Argentine to cultivate tho lands and mako tho Improvements they have. It did not seem to me, however, that they had much use for anything American. I did not seo many of our homo products In the retail stores, except tho Victor talking machine, nnd you could henr that talking- everything but English nt ovcry turn. Tho Dlrlgo, with tlio exception of ono schooner, wns tho only merchant ship thnt hnd Old Glory Hying at her peak during tho forty dayB we wero In port. Wo sailed from lllo January 2G, 1000, nnd I was very glad io get out on mo oiu ocean once more nnd get a breath of cool sea air." - Bad Company Not a Homo in Honolulu Where This Visitor Is Welcome.
