MORE JAPANESE
Two SliplOads Are on the Way
and More Coming.
GOOD NEWS FOR The PLANTERS
Trouble With Columbia'S RaSSen-
gers Said to be Due to Non-Com-
plianCe with Regulations.

The steamship DOric brought news
that will make the sugar planters hap
py. The trouble with the Japanese
who were booked to come on the Co
lumbia was due principally, it is said,
to the failure of the company supply
ing the immigrants to comply with
one of the new regulations of the Jap
anese Government. 1t is reported and
the information comes from a gentle
man who was in Japan at the time of
the departure of the Columbia, that the
Japanese Government since the new
treaties have gone into effect, has be-
come more solicitous than ever about
the welfare of it's subjects abroad and
especially those who leave for Hawaii
and other countries as contract labor
ers. The large increase in the de-
mands of the Hawaiian planters for
labor coming to it's notice about this
time caused the Japanese Government
to scrutinize very carefully the condi-
tions under which the Columbia's la
bOrerS had contracted Some trifiing
omission in the papers caused the
whole shipment to be ordered ashore
to await further investigation. This
has been had, according to the Adver
tiser's informant, and everything hav-
ing been Strengthened out to the salts
faction of the Government, the immi
grants will leave on another vessel as
soon as it can be got ready.
The Japan Emigration Company,
which has the supplying of 5000 of the
5000 contract labOrerS recently author
lied by the Hawaiian Government to
be imported by the planters, also re-
ceived word that everything was all
right as far as regards the laborers
they have agreed to supply. The con-
ditiOnS of the contract service met with
the approval of the authorities, being
more favorable than those heretofore
obtaining. The first shipment, con-
sisting of about seven hundred con-
tract laborers sailed from Japan on
August on the steamship Togo Maru
and should be here in a day or two.
The second shipment of seven hundred
more was 10 ledNe 1OhOudIIld Oh Aug
ust 10 in the steamer Bankoku Maru.
Further advices were to the effect that
the remainder of the 5000 immigrants
to be supplied by the Japan Emigra-
ton Company would leave Japan be-
fore the end of August, in abundance
of time to enable the company to fill
it's contract within the time allowed
three months. These are the labOrerS
secured for the company by George E.
BOardman on his recent trip to Japan.
