COLOR LINE SAY STEAMSHIP AGENTS;
NEGRO MINSTRELS TELL A DIFFERENT STORY.
The agents of the steamship Mio
wera, who refused on Wednesday to
carry Hugan's minstrels, deny that
they drew a "color line." They have
addressed the following communica
tion to the Advertiser:
Editor Advertiser: The article in
the Advertiser concerning the failure
of llogan's minstrels to get passage
on the Miowera is headcf by the state
ment that a color line was drawn by
the agents of that vessel. Permit us
to say that this statement is devoid of
a particle of truth. Not only did we
place no impediment in the way of the
minstrels getting off, but, as was our
duty, we used our best efforts to se
cure passage for them, and gieatly re
Kret we were unsuccessful. Apart
from the fact that the captain of the
Miowera was prevented by the Victo
ria, B. C, quarantine regulations from
accepting any ether than firat-clasH
passengers, there was not accommoda
tion ou the steamer for the troupe, the
few first-class rooms which were unoc
cupied by through passengers from
Australia having been engaged here
long prior to the arrival of the steam
er. TilEO. II. DA VIES & CO.. LTD.,
Agents Miowera.
The minstrels, their manager, and
the Orpheum folks tell a different
story. Kinney, Ballou & McClanahan
were yesterday preparing the suit to
be brought against the agents of the
Canadian-Australian steamship com
pany. It was stated by one of the
law firm that it would take at least
two days' hard work to prepare the
pleadings, and that then they would
throw "a legal bombshell" into the
steamer people's camp.
"We think we have a first-rate suit
and intend to push it through to the
end." said the attorney, with a broad
smile.
Twenty-nine negro actors and act
resses are left in Honolulu out of work
by the refusal of the Miowera com
pany to take them. Their necessitated
5tay will cost dearly and there la no
certainty of when they can get away.
The troup will not attempt to leave
for San Francisco by the Australia.
Their desire Is to reach Vancouver by
WATERSUPPLY
A Startling Plan Is
Suggested.
Writer Outlines a Scheme for Using
The Underground Streams With
out Artesian Wells.
A novel idea for utilizing the water
beneath the city is suggested In a com
munication. The writer aays that as it
has been ascertained that a great sheet
of water sweeps under Honolulu to the
sea, the city should build a shaft, tun
nel and wall, and pen in this mighty
supply,
lows:
The communication is as fol-
1
Editor Advertiser: Permit, me to
make a suggestion about the water
supply for Honolulu. It will probably
commend itself to practical people. It
ha been ascertained that artesian
wells sunk in any part of the several
valleys, from Kalihl to Diamond Head,
will give surface vent to the water
from the mountains that is flowing
out to sea under the surface. We
know that a broad fcheet of water
from the mountains lies beneath the
city, and that its constant How, the
result of rain on the mountains, keeps
back the sea water and preserves Its
freedom from brine. We know, too,
that this abundant supply of pure wa
ter is running to waste into the sea
at every Inch of space under the city
except the few inches equalling the
diameters of the artesian wells in the
valleys.
Now, what I suggest Is that we
think a little. Tho vent at the China
man's rice field or taro patch cannot
be compared to that underground vent
where the mountain water meets the
rca water. If we deal Fueces.'fully
with this we need not worry about
that. And if ever Honolulu gets an
unfailing and adequate "water supply,
it will be by the construction of under
ground reservoirs in the upper sections
of the valleys, where the water is nat
urally collected.
But iMinie man will as-k how an
underground reservoir could be con
structed? I answer, by fluking a shaft,
cutting a tunnel, and building a wall.
In Butte, Cfty, Montana, the Anaconda
Mining company has sunk a shaft over
two thousand feet deep, has tunneled
from It at different levels, and has for
years carried on operations in these
tunnels, where the flow of water re
quires the use of the most powerful en
gines and the largest pumps in the
world to protect the laborers. Water Is
better than gold, and what has been
done In Montana can be done in Hono
lulu. Of course, the work suggested would
be expensive and difficult. But it would
be a permanent blessing to the city,
and as future residents , of the city
would enjoy the benefits of It, a bonded
debt, that would put upon them their
share of the burden, would not be Im
moral or unwise.
Besides, this mode of securing a wat
er supply would Bave the expanse of
the proposed filtration plant, would re
store to the community the use of the
lands up the Nuuanu valley, and would
save much of the expense of pumping
which, with the present method, will be
an everlasting expense.
I could, If necessary, go Into partic
ulars as to the work suggested and
could easily show that In all respects It
is feasible. For the present I am con
tent with offering tile sureestlon.
WAI LAWA.
the most direct roulc, as railroad fares
to the Sound country from San Fran
cisco would cost almost as much as
! steamer passage from Honolulu to
; Vancouver direct The Omheum the
ater feels a moral responsibility
for the stranded company, and during
the tay of the latter here will look
out for them as far as possible. Both
the management of the theater and of
the troup say that by instituting suits
at once they will probably either be
able to, get Judgment against the
steamer aRenta or effect a compromise,
which would result in the colore! peo
ple being taken to Vancouver oa the
next steamer.
Questioned as to what they really
considered the reason for their being
refused passage Wednesday, one of the
manaRrrs stated that the Inference
drawn by all the Interested parties was
that the "color line" was taken Into
consideration. They believe the cap
tain of the vessel had orders when he
left Sydney to peremptorily refuse to
carry the troup to their destination,
and that the a;,ents gave whatever ex
cuse they could for rejecting the min
strels at the eleventh hour.
"I hum up the situation In thla
wise," continued the manager. "The
steamer would take about three weeks
to sail from Sydney to Vancouver.
That would be plenty of time before
reaching the Utter port to cause the
Vancouver officials no uneasiness as to
the plague from the Sydney end, and
no quarantine would therefore be listl.
tuted. But to take on a bunch of thir
ty colored people from Honolulu would
give the authorities at Vancouver an
opportunity to hold the vessel If they
wanted to on account of the color of
the minstrels. Just a If they were Chi
nese or Japanese. But what did they
do? After we were refused, seven or
einht people were allowed to hook, and
were taken oa the steamer. We were
told there waa no room, but when the
whlie people applied thero were plenty
of berths. That Is our Inference."
Twenty-nine separate suits will te
brought and each suit costs $27 for
court fees . Thla corned pretty high to
the management of the company, but
they have put up the money, and are
willing lo light for what they consider
their rights.
