Honolulu, Sept. 10. The Cham ber of Commerce at n meeting yesterday agreed upon n memorial to Congress nskiug protection for TTrm.nflnd nnPTnn nA nlun ,1nrliw1 I " -"". .. . .......U..U to take separate action looking to wards having Honolulu made a regular port of call for trasports. The new by-laws of the Chamber were also adopted. V. II. Hoogs presented the me morial of the coffee committee. It j begun with an enumeration of the 1 principal industries of Hawaii, ns sugar, rice, fruit and coffee grow ing. The memorial also advanced the proposition that Congress had always been willing to enact legis lation to create conditions favorable to the settling of small tracts of land. Sugar cane, it was set forth. 1 can only be successfully grown by I large corporations because of the I great outlay of money at the outset The cultivation of rice, it was stated is entirely in the hands of Asiatics, because only hand labor is possible. Only the raising of coffee and of citrus fruits, it was argued, is left for American farmers. Land had been divided by the government into small tracts and given to Ha waiiaus and Americans and put under coffee cultivation. The de cline in price and competition had caused these settlers to suffer a severe loss and as a result coffee growing was stopped, and the plan tations are now covered with rank vegetation. It was further set out that 400, 000 acres of land ti Hawaii are available for co. oe growing, of which 50,000 are under cultivation. The annual output now is 1,000 tons, but with protection it is set out that in ten years the produc tion will equal 150,000 tons. An advance of four or five cents per pound will make the cultivation profitable and will cause a demand for land from citizen farmers. It was lurther put forth, that there, is at present necessity for creating a better understanding of citizenship, social and industrial conditions, will be bettered by bringing in more American settlers. Atten tion is also called to the report of the Mitchell Commission upon coffee, and Congress is asked to assist the industry either by an amendment to the stafflaw, placing a duty on coffee, as on sugar and rice, or by giving a bounty. Mr. Cooke called attention to the fact that the statistics given might alarm Congress, as 150,000 tons of coffee at a bounty of five cents wduld mean $15,000,000. These figures were omitted and the me morial then adopted. A letter was read by Secretary Spencer from Wm. Haywood, trans mitting a communication from Quartermaster General Humphreys in regard to the transports. It wa"s similar to the one received by the Merchants' Association some time ago, stating the coal must be pro vided before Honolulu can be made a port of call. C. M. Cooke stated that he had taken the matter up and thought he could get a lower bid for coal than the one transmit ted by the Merchants' Association, but would first confer with the bod). Mr. Cooke and IS. D. Tenney were appointed on a com mittee with full power to act. A letter was read from Delegate Kuhio acknowledging the receipt McLKOII-IIUTCIIIN.SOX. Hie Sal nl Ion Army Mcddluu' iu Presence of .tinny (lueils. Captain R. V. Mcl.cod and Lieu tennnt Catherine Hutchinson of the Salvation Army were married last Saturday evening in the presence of a large audience iu Seirao's hall, the ceremony being performed by Major Harris of the Honolulu Sal vation Army corps. The Hilo public had been invited to the wed ding, an admission fee being charg ed. The hall was well filled by good uatured spectators who were there not so much through curiosity as through a desire to give testi monial to the esteem iu which the I bride is held among all classes. The hall was magnificently dec-' orated with palm branches and) bamboo. Over the platform on ' which the ceremony wasjierformed, hung a floral bell and here and there were draped flags of the Army ' and of the United States. While ! the guests were assembling the time was spent iu the singing of hymns. ; When the house was well filled . Major Harris took charge and turn- ed the attention of those present to the subject of matrimony. Hei called for the views of single folks 1 and married folks upon the subject. The responses were entertaining. The ceremony was from the Sal vation Army ritual and was very impressive. At the close the doughty Captain gracefully kissed the bride and then came congratu lations. The bridal party left the hall and with a number of guests went to the home of the Misses Hutchin son on Volcano street where a splendid wedding dinner was in readiness. The guests here were pleasantly entertained for an hour or two. Mr. and Mrs. McLeod received many beautiful presents from far and near, being testimonials of friendship formed at the different places they have been engaged in Army work. Mr. nud Mrs. Mc Leod will have charge of the Sal vation Army work in Hilo. Mike Loft Suddenly. Two Irish soldiers stationed in the West Indies were accustomed to bathe in a little bay which was generally supposed to be free from sharks. Though on good terms with each other, they were not what might be called fast friends. One day, as they were swimming about a hundred yards from the shore, Pat observed Mike suddenly mak ing for the land as hard as he could, without saying a word. Wondering what was the matter, Pat struck out vigorously after him and lauded at his companions heels. ! "Is there anything wrong wid ye?" inquired Pat feelingly. "Nothin' nothin' at all," replied the other. "Thin why did you make such a suddiut rctrate for an' lave me? continued Pat. "Bedad," answered Mike coolly, "I spied the fin av a big shark about twenty feet ahead, an' I thought while he was playin' wid you it would give me time to reach the shore!" f BY... S. S.
