A provision whereby the city of Honolulu may furnish crushed , rock and other materials to the contractor on any improvement in lieu of a cash contribution as its share toward the improvement. This looks forward to the time when the city shall own its own quarry - and operate an efficient rock crushing plant.

Associat ed Press correspondence from Tokio says the Kotohlra will carry from Ja pan to Mexico not. only ammunition for rifles, but field artillery and ma chinery for agricultural and industrial purposes. The kotohlra Is now re turning in ballast to Japan, having turned down offers of 160fr tons .of cargo made her by Honolulu shippers. The Associated Press story is as fob lows: v.:; ..r TOKIO, Japan. Considerable inter est has been caused in Japan by the arrival and activities of three Mexi cans, who represent the government of Gen.1' Carranza, and who are said to he making extensive purchases In behalf of their country. According to the information at Tokio the prospec tive purchases' include munitions of war ammunition, rifles and artillery and a steamship, in addition to ma chtaeryfot agricuTtur'ar ahd : Iridus-" trial purposes. ' . - ' The Mexican agents,vwho 'are" in charge of CoJ. Carpio, are reported to have succeeded in their quest for rifles and even .for a steamship. Itj had been understood that they . were I negotiating for the freight steamer! Kotohlra Maru, a vessel of some 3000 tens, and the announcement that this steamer;: cleared from Yokohama on January 2, with its declared destina tion as Salina Cruz, Mexico, was ac cepting In some quarters as proof that ' the negotiations were 8UcceBfuL The manifest gave the cargo as general merchandise and machinery, but the report was current in Tokio that the vessel had on board a number of rifles, ; estimated at 23,000, consigned to the Carranza government This report could not be confirmed here. - j Jn response to inquiries by The As-; soclated Press the Mexican legation at Tokio denied that the . Kotohlra Maru carried any rifles. The legation admitted that tHe. steamer had sailed for Mexico but said that her cargo was confined to general merchandise and machinery- consigned to a com pany in Mexico, . The legation added that Mexico had" been seeking rifles but had been, unsuccessful, as all the available weapons had been purchased by the ; Entente Allies. The legation confirmed the departure of the Koto hlra Maru. saying it was under charter . to a Japanese , firm. . ' - It Is believed here that the Mexican government recently opened a credit in Japan of $1,000,000 .for . the- trans-' action of, general business. During the ( presidency of Gen. Huerta the gov-! ernment of Mexico opened negotia tions with Japanese firms for the pur-1 chase of rifles and ammunition, de positing some 3,000.000 yen for. that purpose in the country. About 12.000. rifles, modelled after the1 Spanish in- fan try weapon, were actually deliver-! ed to the Huerta government but be-' fore other consignments were pos sible the European war broke out This Interfered, with" the delivery of further orders to Mexico. Some 60, 000 rifles originally Intended for that country were sold to Russia and France and the weapons that went to Russia ' are now being used by the Russian troops on duty in Northern Manchuria. , " ' BELGIAN FIRE CAUSES ; ' LOSS.
