SEA AND SHORE.
Captain Trip Resigns
His Position.
Were Not Refused Lodging--Men in
Quarantine Happenings Along
The Water Front.

Coal dust from the ships discharging
and dust from the streets made yester-
day uncomfortable on the waterfront.
The moving of lumber from several
vessels discharg:ng along the Espla-
made caused the teamsters in a hurry
to reach the Wilder wharf much an
noyance; and language, as sIll' ynuric
as breeze from a volcano, foated on
the air during the afternoon.
In Quarantine.
The forty-one men quarantined at
the Healani boathouse are enjoying
life as we'll as they can under the cir
cumstances. The approach leading to
the house has been destroyed. Prac-
tically speaking, they have burned the
bridge behind them. The time is passed
in the many ways known only to men
who have nothing else to do but kill
time. A club has been formed. 1t is
known by the initial letters S. e. F. F.
iC. What these letters stand for is a
secret not to be divulged on pain of
| a heavy fine. An election of officers
will be held this evening. Clarence
Crabbe and Archie Gilfillan are the
ministering angels for the men in con-
inement. They visit the place daily in
a boat to see that all is we'll. The new
wharf will be turned over by the con-
tractors on Friday next; up to that
time it will be only twenty-five days
since the first pile was driven.
Aloha, Capt. Trip.
Today will see the retiring from act
i've service of an old-timer on the
front. Captain Trip has gig7n up hi!
position in the harbor-masters Office
owing to failing health, and Captain
Freese is to take the position as assist
ant to Captain Fuller. Captain Trip
has always been known as a careful
and efficientsman, and his genial pres
ence will be greatly missed. Captain
FTeese is the right man in the RICH
place, he being thoroughly acquainte,
with the present condition Of thing
on the front, as was his predecessor
His friends extend to the retiring Off
Ger their best aloha; the new man ha
the best wishes of all, as by his pains
taking and pleasant manner he ha
made many friends along the whaVges
Not Turned Away.
The report was around town yester
day that the sailors from the Inver
ness-shire were refused admission t
the Sailors Home. 1t was said tina
place was filled with landsmen; ant
although the sailors claimed they ha
money, the hospitality of the nous
was refused them, and they We're force
to go to the police station, where the
were taken in.
Inquiry at the police station disclose
the fact that none of the men had bee
there at all since they left the custod
of the authorities. Mr.. Bluxome, maj
ager of the Sailors Home, states TIL
nine of the men came to the house, al
as the place was full they were give
mattresses on the floor. The dorm
; tories were filed when the men a
rived, there being accommodations f
only eighteen sailors. Some four
five rooms in the house are rented
landsmen.

THE MERCHANTS ASSOCIATION.
Board of Directors Met Yesterday and
uDfscussed Excessive Express Rates
and Revision of Collection laws.

There was a meeting Of the board of
directors of the Wilmington Merchants
Association yesterday afternoon,
which, while no special action was TAX
en- on any important matters,
was characterized by discussions of
important questions which promise to
materialiZe in definite form in the near
future. Probably the most important
matters brought to the attention of
the board We're those of securing bet
ter collection laws so that merchants
and others can stand a better show of
collecting accounts from small debtors
and that of obtaining relief for mem
bers of the association in the matter
of excessive express charges on pro-
duce, etc. Increased express charges
were brought to the attention of the
board by a communication from Messrs
Greasy Bros, in which they complain
ed that express rates ave been so in
creased that crates of produce which
they nave been heretofore bringing to
this city for 40 cents now cost them 80
cents.
The discussion of the increased rates
brought out the facts that certain
firms here and in other parts of the
state have already filed complaints az
10 the increased rates with the chair
man OF the corporation COMMISSION.
The board instructed the secretary OF
the association to address a letter to
the chairman of the corporation com
mission setting forth the fact that
members of the association are COM
planning of the excessive rates and ask
ing what course had best be pursued
in taking steps to have the rate reduc-
ed. There was a general discussion
of a more equitable collection law, but
the matter was left in allegiance for the
time being, the purpose of the ~associa-
ton being to take it up again later on
if possible with the cooperation Of
other commercial organizations OF the
state.
Those in attendance upon the meet
ing were: President w. A. Johnson,
Secretary p. H~einsberger, Mr.. w. E.
Worth, Mr.. D.. c. Love, Mr.. Benja-
min Bell, Mr.. George r. French and
Mr.. j. H. Thomas.

Washington, July 19.-The govern
ment authorities are finding that the
present Chinese agitation is having
the usual effect of stimulating cranks
and agitators, and many of the high
est officials are receiving anonymous
letters containing advice, and some
times threats. The Chinese officials
are also victims of foolish illusions.
They are not considered seriously, how
ever, and h officials, Dot govern
ment and Chinese, dismiss them as
from ignorant persons. On their face,
some of these communications look
~belligerent, but their illiteracy and
braggadocio modify their effect. The
government officials express regret that
in the dilicate position in which the
country is placed at this time it should
be embarrassed by anonymous writ
ers, and steps are being quietly taken
to a%pprehend the guilty parties.

SANTIAGO HEROES AGREED.
Ship Commanders Agreed to Longs Plan
of Reward at the White
House Conference.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.--The president
again took up the question Of reward.
ing the naval officers who participated
in tho destruction of Oerveras fleet of
Santiago and his. final conclusions will
he embodied shortly In recommenda.
selvns to congress.
Tho president md Secretary Long
had consultation with eight OF tho
Santiago captains at tho White House.
The naval officers present were Chad.
wick Of tho Now York. Cook of the
brooklyn, Clark Of tho Oregon, Philip
(now rear admiraD Of tho Texas, Evans
OF the iowa. HiKginson (now rear I'D
miral) OF tho Massachusetts. Folgcr Of
the New Orleans aud Lieutenant Com
mander wainwright OF the Gloucester.
Iho ooncensus OF opinion of tho naval
ofhcers as developed at the conference
seemed to favor the method OF reward
recommended by Secretary LonR-the
comforting OF medals which would carry
with them u PERCENTAGE of increase Of
puy in lion Of advancement by numbera.
This would compensate for actual pro.
motion, both by giving increased pay
and by giving TO tho recipients distino.
ton which would mark them for future
service.
AT the same time in some cases II
would work hardship, as for instance
in the case OF Captain Clark, who is
two numbers below his position at the
opening OF the war. This ia due to the
advancement of tho Manila captains
whose promotions We're confirmed by
tho senate. Captain Clark, at the con.
ference, however, was willing that Sec.
retary Longs plan should be adopted.
N order that Justice might bs done to
the others.

The language Of tho fashion plate
and the woman's paper is sufficiently
appalling TO the mere man even In
these days of emarcipated and. we
may presume, more grammatical wom-
anhood. but, according to an extract
from n fashion Journal Of 1887, the jar
gon of over n century ago was even
more astounding. TEis is how the pa
per described the dress Of n certain
Mile. D. at the opera:
She appeared in dress of "stitled
slghs," ornamented with "superhuous
regrets" the bodice cut In perfect
capdor" point and trimmed with .in-
discreet complaints" Her hair was
dressed In Sustained sentiments"
with headdress Of s'sustained con-
quest" ornamented with several "hy-
aways" and "downcast eye" ribbons,
and her collar was "beggar on horse
back" color ,.N

conveyed some meaning to the fash
Ionable woman of the days when

GREAT CANAL OPENED.
Sanitary Waterway From Chicago to the
Despininss River Started ut
Chicago End.

CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-The s33, 600, 900
canal, at present used for sewage dis
posal, but which ultimately may be o
ship canal also, is in use. nfter about
seven years Of hard work by tho trustees
Of the sanitary district, which is the
name Of corporation including the
larger part OF Che city Of Chicago and
many Of its suburbs.
Probably never before has the COM
pletion Of q public work of such mag
nitude been marked with such absolute
lack of ceremony. There were no
speeches, no exercises aud no cheering.
the sanitary district trustees and en-
gineer gathered ut the scene. Besides
few workmen there were not dozen
spectators present. There was no
grand rush OF wal er to be followed by
the cheers Of spectators. The water
was let III gradually.
pected to reach Locl.port, and about
four days from the time the flow began,
according to the estimate of the chief
engineer, the canal will be full end the
water will begin to run over the sills of
the controlling gates at Lockport, 2S
miles from Chicago. There it will fall
into the Des Planes river. and then into
the Illinois and Mississippi rivers, and
SO finally Lake Michigan will shake
hands with the Gulf Of Mexico.
Chicago people are already eagerly
watching the effect on the Chicago river
OF the opening of the canal. This
stream, which is SO Objectionable In its
present condition. is expected to be COM
paratively pure md certainly to lose all
It's features objectionable from a sani.
tary point of view when the present.
stagnation gives way to u full, strong
current from Lake Michigan.
