DOUBTFUL ALIENS
ON ANGEL ISLAND
Chinese and Lone Hindu Trans*
ferred to the New Deten*
lion Station
Great Excitement Attends Em
barkation From Old Sheds
on the Mail Dock
The immigration detention" sheds on
the old Pacific Mail docks which for
the last five years have been the sub
ject of controversy of some kind or
another stand empty and desolate to
day, the change being made yesterday
to the new detention quarters at Angel
island. There were 301 Chinese and
one lone and gloor.-.y Hindu in the
party transferred to the new home. for
doubtful aliens. H,
The time set for the transferring of
the inmates was 9 a. m.*, but long be
fore that scores of Chinese coaches
gathered around waiting for a last
xvord to their fellow countrymen be
fore a heartless government sent them
across the water.
MHIKUVIXO OF I,A\UIACE
The moment the first of the Chinese
appeared at the head ot the long stair
ivay and gazed in blinking wonder
around him a storm of language broke
loose. The immigration inspectors
shooed away the wise ones on the side
lines as best they could, but they would
return again and again, yelling their
]ast words of advice.
The transfer was made in install
ments. A large dray was backed up
to the foot of the stairs and into this
would be loaded a gang of Chinese, as
many as it would hold. Then, sur
rounded by a group of inspectors and
government officials tlie dray started
for the pier, where a tug lay waiting
for the. cargo.' .'':
As each drayful moved away the
noi»=e of words and grunts simply spat
tered itself on the scenery. It was the
last chance. The advisers advised and
ihe aliens shouted back doubtful
queries. Added to this were the indig
nant remonstrances of the inspectors.
AW T. Boyce. in change of the opera
tions, gave strict orders to keep the
local Chinese as far away as possible
from those being transferred. .There
was a fear that some oriental at the
Jast moment would make a desperate
break for American citizenship, but
none attempted it.
(HATTKR AND Gir;«il.ES
In the crowd were four Chinese
women. They seemed to regard the
affair as a picnic. They laughed, chat
i»d. giggled and chatted pidgin to the
grinning inspectors. The lone Hindu
was last. He inovod down in majestic
stride and strode on board the tug as
if it belonged to him.
Among the Chinese of the detention j
quarters there is one man who has been i
tliere since last August. His case was I
appealed by his friends and is now be- j
ing considered by the Washington au
thorities. He appeared considerably !
peevish at having to move, having be- j
come accustomed to the spot. He is ;
the dean of the Institution and regard- :
«d as being quite superior to the fresh- '
men of more recent arrival. When he
stepped on board the. tug he. wrapped
himself in a shawl and gazed curiously
st the spot which he had left and i
vrhich ho had entered on landing six j
months ago! It was his only concep- |
tion of the land of liberty.

MASTER SAVES MEN
FROM GRAVE IN SEA
Captain William Griffith "Loses
British Ship Alexander Black
in Breakers at Kahului
Storm Carries Vessel Toward
Beach and Waves Make Short
Work of Derelict
Captain William Griffith, master of
the British ship Alexander Black,
which was wrecked January 3 in the'
breakers at Kahului, arrived here yes
terday on the liner China, accompanied
by, two of his officers and nine mem
bers of the crew. The ship was a total
loss and only the good judgment of the
skipper saved all hands from a watery
grave. ;* . - . i
; The Alexander Black, with a cargo of
niter.^ from Chile for Kahului, arrived
off 'the' Hawaiian port the afternoon o£,
January 4. The weather was fine and \u25a0
clear and the sea. smooth:' The ship j
entered the bay and set. a signal. for a
pilot 'to guide the vessel to a safe
anchorage.
. Suddenly there came a changeun the
weather in the shape of a heavy squall
from the northwest. The wind was
accompanied' by- rain, thunder" and
lightning. The. sky darkened until it
was. impossible to see more than .a
ship's length away. Sail. was. reduced,
but the storm was too fierce and the
space too restricted \u25a0 to allow the 1 ship
to work out of the bay.
In spite of. all efforts the ship was
swept toward the beach. When the
roar of the breakers struck his ear
Captain Griffith gave his order to aban
don, the ship. The crew got away in
two boats and" they were barely, clear
of the ship when it went witha crash,
into the breakers, where the sea made
short work of the* Alexander, Black. ; •
Captain Griffith found an opening in
the 'reef and through, this the small
boats made their way. Nea ring the
beach they encountered another line of
breakers. shallow. but dangerous.
About this time two men on horseback
appeared on the beach and . by signs,
showed the shipwrecked party where
to land.
Except the clothes they' wore when
shipwrecked all hands lost everything.
The ship disappeared altogether Jan-,
vary- 10. The British- consul- at-"this
port will hold an Investigation of the
wreck and will make provision for
sending the crjpw home.. With Captain
Griffith oii the China were Chief Officer

REPORT OF EXPERTS
WANTED BY COURT
Judge Van Fleet Favors Plan of
Appointing Engineers for
Ocean Shore Road
Information Desired Concerning
the Actual Physical Condition
of the Crippled Railway
Judge Van Fleet, in the United States
circuit court, listened yesterday to sug
gestions and . arguments by attorneys
representing variouW. Interests in. the
Ocean Shore railway receivership mat
ter concerning,, the proposed appoint
ment of a. commissiwn of engineers to
pass upon the value rind report upon
the physical condition of the Ocean
\u25a0Shore, property. '.\u25a0 \u25a0 .
Following a general discussion,
which included' an objection to the com
mission- plan by; Attorney E. V X 'Mc-
Cutcheon, representing a number of the
bond, holders, 'Judge Van" Fleet""an
nounced that h* would appoint a com
mission'of three engineers, but would
.postpone naming them until next
Wednesday on the ground that nego
tiations now in progress between the
stock j and . bond holders might possibly
result, in the meantime in an agree
ment upon a plan for continuing the
road in operation.
The primary object of the hearing
was.. to determine the advisability \u25a0- of
appointing the board of engineers as a
step toward 'settling the question of an
order instructing Receiver F. S. Strat
ton: to issue (receiver's certificates for
funds with which to complete the con
struction of the road.
Attorneys E. J. McCutcheon, Barclay
Henley, K. S. Pillsbury and Matt I. Sul
livan, representing bond holders and
other creditors, took part' in the pro r
ceedings. McCutcheon argued against
the appointment "of a board of en
gineers, on the' ground of the cost of
such an investigation and' payment for
professional services. Pillsbury thought
that a single engineer would be suf
ficient.
\u25a0Judge ' Van Fleet, however, said that
after .consulting with Judge Morrow,
i who.; appointed Stratton as receiver,
he had made up his mind to the ap
pointment of the engineering board as
necessary in_ any event as the basis of
a disinterested report on physical valu
ation for the future guidance of. thQ
court. -'\u25a0'- . , • •
. McOutcheon's . intimation that the
plan -of reorganization now. beirig con T
sidered by the stock and bond, holders
might be-. productive of results, caused
the court to agree to .wlthold- the ap
pointment of an egineering board un
til Wednesday. -

kidney trouble , The water I passed looked to
be half blood. I took medicine from the doc-
tor for terse weeks, and it did not do me any
srood. I first cot two samples of D^Witfa
Kiflney and Bladder Pills, and the second day
could sea a change, and I have taken in all
about three boxes of the Pills, and I am now
well and the Pills are what cured me.**
