Guam to be a Naval station.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.--Guam very
soon will be a naval station, with a
station vessel, coal pile and garrison
OF marines. Orders which are now
on the way to the Bennington direct
the gunboat to proceed to Guam
aud make a survey Of the harbor.
Such instructions are contained in
the orders as will give authority to
the commander to locate proper
place for unloading coal and for the
construction of such barracks as
will suffice for small detachment
OF marines as may be sent to the
island by Admiral Dewey. At the
same time orders have been dis
patched to the Yosemite, one OF the
auxiliary cruisers, ordered to convey
recruits to Manila for the vessels OF
the fleet, and this vessel is to be con-
stituted the station ship of the new.
ly designated station.
The Yosemite will be used not
only as a cruiser on duty at Guam
and for the purpose of making sur
veys there, but will be of service 10
carrying details and dispatches
from the station to the main station
of the Oriental fleet, which will con-
tinue to have its headquarters at
Manila.
Orders sent recently to the Brutus
to carry load of coal from Manila
to Guam were sent with the idea Of
establishing point of supply for
vessels which will he sent hack aud
forth across the Pacific, which will
be OF value, as some of the best
cruisers will be detached from
Dewey's squadron soon for dispatch
to Mare island for overhauling.

AN INQUIRY.
Honolulu, December q, 1898
Harold M. Sewall, Esq, Special
Agent Of the United States.
Sir:- The attention OF the under
signed Importers OF merchandise in
this city has been directed to Wash
ington dispatches OF the 18th and
10Th instauts, published in the Paci-
fic Commercial Advertiser of this
date, in which the statement is made
that you, as Special Agent for the
United States Treasury, have in
formed the S ,cretary of the Treas
ury Department that the immediate
extension of the tariff laws of the
United States to Hawaii is impera-
tive in order to prevent he "irreg-
ular entry Of goods to the United
States by way Of Hawaii" and it is
explained that this irregular entry"
means that "a concerted plan Of
foreign dealers to send large guam
titles Of merchandise to Hawaii and
enter it under the Hawaiian tariff,
with view OF taking advantage of
the nominal duties, and subsequent
ly ship it to other ports Of the Unit
ed States articles of domestic com
merce."
We are of course unaware as to
who is pointed at when the express
sion "foreign dealers" is used, but,
in justice to ourselves, it is proper
for us to inform you that if this
communication to the Treasury De-
partment is correctly reported, and
il by foreign dealers" you desired
to intimate that any OF the under
signed were employed in the i'm
portation Of goods destined for re-
export to the United States when
ever the United States tariff was
extended to the Islands, you have
made an unjust accusation, as no
such CONCERTED plan" exists among
the resident foreign dealers whose
importations are madein the regular
course OF trade and for exclusive
use in these islands.
Trusting to be favored by the
assurance that the reference to
"foreign dealers" above quoted was
in no way intended to apply to US.
We have the honor to be, sir, your
most obedient servants.
