pose the Admiral would demand an
apology at once. AS the Naniwa had
not been blown out of the water up to
the time the Australia sailed, the men
who knew it all wondered all the hard

the report of the supposed insult was
carried to the Coast to be published in
the Frisco papers. But there was no
insult, reports to the contrary nOtwith-
standing. According to an officer OF
the Philadelphia, all the salute neces-
sary was given. In naval etiquette,
the port is first saluted with p guns,
following this comes the salute to the
warships, according to the rank of the
commander, regardless of the flag of

it is one in which that Government

ARRIVED YESTERDAY WITH COMMISSIONER AKIYAMA.

| Company has arranged to put not less
| than so white men to work on it's plan
tation. Before the departure of the
steamer yesterday, J. B. Anterior,
| James 3. Castle and e. d. Tenney, rep
| resenting the Eva company, met at the
| Office of Messrs. Castle & Cooke and
completed the arrangements.
From these gentlemen, it is learned
that the company having met with
such phenomenal success through the
adoption of the cooperative plan, has
decided to extend the work in this di-
rection to a considerable degree. The
result of fOur-yearS' trial of this plan
by Asiatics has proven eminently sat
lstactory to them, as planters, and to
the company, as mill owners. White
labor has been a study with the COM
pany for more than year past, but
the question of how and where to get
the right people was serious problem.
It was known, through w. n. Arm
strong, that the work done by the La
Dor Department in San Francisco had
proven entirely satisfactory, Mr. Arm
strong having made an investigation Of
it during the one of his visits to that
State. The Eva company decIued
then, to invite State Labor Commits
siOner Fitzgerald to visit the islands
and investigate the conditions and re-
port. The expenses of Mr.. Fitzgerald
and his secretary, Mr.. Greene, were
borne by the Eva Plantation Company
Mr.. FitZgerald's views of the condi-
tons existing here have been publish
ed. That he is well satisfied that white
men can do better work than Asiatics
there is no doubt, and upon his report
being submitted TO the officers of the
company and upon his recommendation
that white laborers be brought here to
work on the cooperative plan, it was
decided to- make a contract suited to
the conditions of that plantation. The
contract is based entirely upon the ex-
perience the company has had during
the past four years.
The bringing of white labor to Ha-
vail by the Eva company is entirely
Independent of the law which provides
that plantations shall take 10 per cent
white labor. 1t is done with view
TO colonizing the country with Ameri-
can families. The contract is made to
suit the conditions of Eva, and may
not suit for other plantations but it is
expected that if the plan works on Eva
the contract will be changed to suit
the conditions on other plantations
Within three months Mr.. Fitzgerald
will send to Eva so men under
this contract. Care will be ex-

enants; S. Saito, S. Kushima, assistant
paymasters: T. Matsushita, K MORT
maya, midshipmen.
IN addition TO the officers, there is a
crew of $50 men. The mission of the
Naniwa was to bring to Honolulu the
following gentlemen, who will investi-
gate the matter of rejecting the 63S
Japanese laborers, who came here
nearly month ago:
NJ. Akiyama, counsellor from the
Japanese Office of Foreign Affairs; c.
Saito. director of the Toxic Emigration
Company, Limited, of Yokohama; s.
Segawa, manager of the Morioka Emil
grafton Company.
In order that the progress and re-
suit of the investigation may be prop-
erly recordeds the following represen-
tatives of the Japan vernacular press,
accompanied the commissioner:
Y Jshikawa, NJ. Nishi, Furuya, Seki
and Suzuki
In the afternoon Commissioner Aki-
wanna and Captain Kuro-oka called on
Minister Shimamura, and later, the
Minister returned the captains visit
A representative of the Advertiser

Commissioner Akiyama comes here
merely to work in conjunction with

consider the unjust treatment of our
people in refusing to allow a number
of Japanese emigrants to land here.
Our claims will be presented to this
Government through the Minister of

ercised in the selection of the men
and an effort will be made to secure
men with families. particularly those
who have one or two boys old enough
TO assist in the work. The idea OF
selecting men with families is TO OBJ
tain men who will not consider il their
duty TO spend their earnings in saloons.
Another point considered is the as
sistance that may be rendered by the
young boys in the families. There is
no intention on the part of the COM
pany to receive. or Mr. Fitzgerald to
send tramps or men who do not have
good moral characters: those to be
sent are men who will be an improve
ment in every way upon the Asiatics.
OF the so men to be sent down under
the auspices of Mr.. Fitzgerald. at least
a few will be capable of performing
other than field work. For instance:
On their arrival, they will be taken
over the ground and shown that part
of the new land that is to be opened
up by the colonists. When the location

of work among those who are to come
as colonists, the work will be done
for them. Mr.. Tenney was kind
enough to supply an Advertiser report

is given here in full:

ARKANSAS SUGAR BEETS.
Experimental Crop Not Up to POssi
 bilities, But Good.

WAsHISGToN, Oct. 1.-The Secre- tary of Agriculture has completed the anIysis of specimens of sugar beet raised in Phillips county. Ark. He reports that this specimen shows a percentage of ten-sixty -four one hundredths oi sugar on weight of the beets, that is; 100 pounds of these beets would yield about II pounds Of sugar. He says that this percentage will undoubtedly be ex- eeeded by analysis of beets from other counties when completed. He also says the beet samples from Ar kansas will average over a ton of sugar from ten tons of beets.
 Hon c. A. A. Dean, Of Little Rock, is here. Said he: We have tremendous crop of apples in Ar kansas this year The apples raised in the Ozark Mountains are Of espe- cially fine flavor, and every year buyers from New York come down and purchase entire orchards. The buyers then ship the fruit to Europe as the product of the Empire State, and thus Arkansas does not get the credit that is her due. But our farmers get good money for their fruit, and do not complain. .
