Matters of Interest to Mariners and Shipping Merchants. NEWS OF THE OCEAN. The steamship Enterprise recently pur chased by Captain Matson and others for the Hilo trade is to be entirely remodeled. Her Panama cargo has been discharged and to-day she will go to the iron works for an overhauling. Passenger accommoda tion is to be built, an electric light and refrigerating plant put in and numerous other alterations made. When completed the Enterprise will be one of the most comfortable vessels on the coast. Tlie Enterprise to Ba Remodeled. Four coal-laden vessels bound for this port were yesterday added to the over due fleet. Ctae of then is the well-known four-maeted baxk Afon Alaw.- She is now 332 days out from Swansea and the under writers are payins 8 per cent to reinsure their risks. Captain Thomas has been com ing to this port for years and never met with a mishap, so his friends are not wor rying. He was master of the bark Meri onette when she made the record run of ninety-seven days from Swansea, but he has never been able to make a quick pas cage in the Afon Alaw. The French barks La Tour d'Auvergne,' 149 days out from Swansea; Edward De tallle. 151 days our from Cardiff, and the Ar.ne de Bretaigne, 142 days out from Car diff, are also quoted at 8 per cent. Fears are also entertained for the Chilean bark Antoinette, row out 142 days from Che rnalnus. B. C, for Antofogaeta; for the. little schooner Helen, now out eightv-five days from San Diego, for Alaska, and the Fhip Indiana, now out forty-three days from Bristol Bay. for San Francisco. What makes it look bad for the Antoi nette is the fact that the schooner Fred J. Wood, which left Chemalnus over two months after her, arrived at Antofogasta yesterday. The Helen was built at Sausallto to take a party of gold hunters to Nome. As soon as the boat g-ot outside a storm came tip and she was driven down the coast. She made San Diego leaking a.nd after be ing repaired, made another start, from which time nothing has been heard of her. The Indiana is a doubtful quantity. &ie is supposed to have sailed from Bristol Bay forty-three days ago, but something may have detained her. More Overdue Vessels. The new rule will affect the employes in the offices of the Auditor, Tax Collec tor, Board of Public Works, Police De partment, Fire Department, Board of Klection Commissioners and Board of Health. The commission will hold a competitive examination under civil service rules for draughtsmen for the 13ure:iu of Engineer ing November 13 and 14. and for engineer's and Surveyor's office assistants November 7. Applicants will be examined in mathe matics, drawing and field work. A com plete course in an engineeringr school of approved standing will be equivalent to two years of general experience. While the charter does not specifically provide that civil service employes are prohibited from taking part in politics, a section gives the commission the power to make rules to carry out the purposes of its administration. After any proposed rule has been printed for distribution the employes are amtnable to it and a viola tion is deemed just cause for dismissal. This decision on ths part of the com mission will come as a surprise to the employes who were making a canvass for their frien4s who have been nominated ior office. The dictum of the commission will be so worded that civil service em ployes must refrain from taking an in terest in any candidacy under pam of dis missal. ' » The municipal Civil Service Commission is preparing to explode a bombshell in the camp of city employes who were ap pointed under its rules from the eligible lists. The commission will shortly Issue an order that no city official who holds Ills place under civil service shall take part in politics or meddle in the campaign ::i the interest of any particular candi date. Clerks Taken From Eligible List Are Not to Engage in Campaign. The battleship Wisconsin and the cruis er Philadelphia are both expected here next week. The former, with Rear Ad miral Casey aboard, is coming from Puget Sound, while the cruiser is returning after having taken the San Diego Naval Militia out for a practice cruise. On his arrival here Bear Admiral Casey will transfer his flag to the Philadelphia and will start for Panama. At the isthmus he will again transfer his flag to the Iowa and will go to Pago Pago in that vessel. Admiral Casey will be head of the court appointed to try (Sommander Benjamin F. Tilley of the Abarenda, naval governor of Tutuila, for "conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman." The Philadelphia will remain at Panama and the Wisconsin at San Francisco until Admiral Casey's' return. Commander Tilley is now in the United States, but will return to Pago Pago on the naval transport Solace, which is scheduled to rfail from here on the 15th inst. If he does not go on the Solace he will be a passenger on the mail steam ship Sonoma, which sails on the 24th inst. The Solace will take down to Pago Pago a lot of anchors, chains and general stores to the naval station. These were to have gone on the schooner Ju}ia E. Whalen, but at the last moment the Gov ernment countermanded the order and put the Solace in commission. Cruiser Will Start for the Isthmus Some Time Next "Week. PHILADELPHIA; FOR PANAMA. IN another week or so there will bo an amalgamation of shipping inter ests that will be the strongest ever known in the history of the 'port. The Steamship Managers' Associa tion, the Shipowners' Association and the steam schooner owners are now practi cally one concern and in future will gov ern all matters pertaining to the shipping ami paying off of ships" crews. The formation of the Shipowners' As soeiution dates back to the big strike of sailors several -years ago. Since that time the members of the association have shipped and paid off their men in the office of the association. The Steamship Managers' Association was formed a few months ago as the result of certain de mands made by the Sailors' Union. The steam echooner owners are the latestr ad dition to the compact. Members of the three different bodies held informal talks, and finally a meeting was called for last Wednesday. There were present at it J. R. Hanify of J. R. Hanify & Co. and C. A. Hooper of C. A. Hooper & Co., representing the steam schooner owners; Captain Goodall of Goodall. Perkins & Co. and E. R. Di mond of 'Williams, Diraond & Co., repre senting the Steamship Managers' Asso ciation, and Henry E. Pennell of the Simpson Lumber Company and Captain Goodman of Alexander & Baldwin, repre senting the Shipownt-rs' Association. After considerable discussion the steam schooner owners decided to ' join the Steamship Managers' Association, but for the time being will ship all their men through the Shipowners' Association. That is as far as the matter has gone at present, but on the 15th inst., when an other meeting is to be held, the chances are that all three concerns will amalga mate and form a large central associa tion.

The Grand Jury returned three indict ments yesterday. The first was against "Sir" Harry Westwood Cooper, or Ernest Chadwick, the liberated jailbird, who was recently sentenced by Judge Lawlor to ten years' imprisonment at San Quentln. The Grand Jury had already returned one indictment against Cooper, but it proved defective. The new arraignment is on a charge. of perjury in having testified that he had given certain telegrams in Ogden to Miss Norine Schneider. Cooper's ball was fixed at $5000 on the new charge. The other indictments were against Leonard Nott and C. Roland, two strikers, who took the star, club and pistol away from a special policeman on the water front. The charge in each case was rob bery. Bail was fixed at $500. "Sir" Harry West-wood Cooper, Re cently Convicted, Must Answer Charge of Perjury. GRAND JURY RETURNS THEEB INTXECTMENTS "It is a wonder that the Southern Pa cific Company has not made this rule be fore. In the East none but those pur chasing overland tickets are allowed to board the train. Many people complain about the Southern Pacific Company, but coming right down to bare facts it is one of the most lenient roads in America." There will bo wailing and gnashing of teeth over a new order of the Southern Pacific* Company which went Into effect yesterday. In the futre only those with transportation will bo allowed on over land trains. It has been the custom of friends of those going East to make the trip to the Oakland mole and ride on the overland trains as far as the Sixteenth-street sta tion with them. In the same way it is the custom to go to the same depot and ride with friends coming from the East to the mole on their return trip. Superintendent Frazler issued an order, which went into effect yesterday, allow ing only those who carry overland tickets to ride on overland trains, and in the fu ture friends of travelers will have to be satisfied with saying a farewell at the Oakland mole. A prominent railroad official, in speak ing, of the new order, said: Privilege of Going to Six teenth Street Is Abol ished. Only Ticket Holders Can Ride on Overland Trains. ADIEUS MUST END AT MOLE Tanner of fasting fame, now 68 years old, hail challenged, the brewers of Denver to a faetlne contest. Six men are to drink beer only and he is to drink water.
