ISLAND NEARLY
DESERTED.
The End of Contract Labor Importa-
lions Believed to Have Come-The
Helene Gets the Last Lot.

Quarantine island is empty now for
the first time in many months. The
last of the Japanese there were taken
on the quarantine scow today from the
island to the steamer Helene, which is
taking them to Hawaii ports. There
about five hundred in the lot, and the
Helene had a big deck load. She will
land them before getting to Hilo, If the
people of Hilo will let her.
The quarantine station has probably
seen the last of the contract labor busi-
ness for some time. In it now there
are twelve Japs who have been reject
ed by immigration inspector John w.
Short. They will be sent back to Japan
at the earliest opportunity and then the
red buildings in which so many thou
sans of Orientals have encountered doc
tors and officials who subjected them
to the often painful experience of a
bath, will be deserted, or comparatively
so.
The end of the assisted immigration
business means the loss of one of the
picturesque sights of Honolulu, though
that may not worry many people who
did not enjoy seeing the Asiatics come
into the country. The crowded tramp
steamers the hurried dischargng of
the human freight on to scow and
| then the long march, with baggage on
their backs along the narrow wharf
sights that have attracted the atten-
ton of many travellers passing through.
| Now it is all over unless some COM
pany makes a new start and is allowed
! to do so by the long-awaited territorl-
al bill. The last of the assisted labor
ers are about to begin work on the
plantations, at the munificent wages
for which they were induced to leave
their homes in the Sunflower Kingdom
! At the end of their contracts most of
which are for three years, they will be
free" laborers. Until then they are
supposed to stay with the plantation
that paid their fare from Yokohama.
The Japanese immigration Company
of Hiroshima has one more steamer
loaded of laborers to come. About five
hundred of the laborers it contracted
for have not yet arrived and may be
here on the Coptic next week. One
other company expects about fifty men
The companies state that they are no
making new contracts now.

INTRENCHING BY STEFAN,

THE latest development in modern
warfare" says the Aldershot CORES
pendent of the London Telegraph, lis
the steam intrencher, a huge pillow that
will throw up four-foot intrenchment
at the rate Of three miles an hour This
colossal machine is the invention of
Colonel Templer director Of military
ballooning and steam transport, now on
his way to South Africa in charge of
the new steam transport company and
balloonists of Royal Engineers. A trial
of the pillow was made lately on the
Long valley. A traction engine was
attached to it, and it fully carried out
the work expected of it, cutting deep
into the very rough ground it was tried
on and throwing the excaVated earth
up on one side, forming a very service
able shelter trench. The body of the
machine consists of a powerful hori-
zontal framework, made at an angle of
50 degrees mounted on two large iron
wheels>Rt the angle. At each extremi-
ty is an immense plowshare, four feet
by four feet, fronted by a six-inch steel
pick. These plowshares point one each
way so that by bringing down the end
required the earth is thrown either to
the right or left. The steel pick splits
rock or stone that comes in it's way
and the whole machine is guided by
means of cogged wheels that slew the
carrying wheels to the right or left
The machines, two of which are going
to the Cape this week, would follow a
line of skirmishers at right angles, pro-
tected by artillery, and make a trench
behind them for the purpose of occu-
patton in carrying an intrenched posi-
ton. The engine and machine would,
of course, be suitably protected by
plating"

ANTI-PLAGUE PRECAUTIONS.
United States Surgeon General Applies
Them to San Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO, January 25.-In
view of the existence of the bubonic
plague in Honolulu and Asatic ports
the supervising surgeon general of the
Marine Hospital Service of the United
States has issued a circular letter to
Collectors of the Port making them
acquainted with the additional quaran-
tine regulations adopted by the SER
vice. The new rules are very stringent
with regard to the inspection, deten-
ton and fumigation of baggage and
cargo of vessels arriving from sus-
pected or infected port.
For instance, passengers shall not
be vaccinated at or en- route from
ports or places infected with plague,
such vaccination being held to increase
the liability of plague infection, and
by inducing fever and swollen glands
tends to confuse the diagnosis at the
port of arrival. This operation must
be performed at the port of arrival and
just prior to release from quarantine.
Mammalian animals, such as dogs,
cats, monkeys, mice. ETC.. shall not be
shipped from a plague-infected or sus-
pected port or place.
The new rules were put into effect
at this port yesterday.

PAU JAPANESE TRANPS THE .ROLE Of FLBJSTER
PRINCE BERT AND WEAVER
WERE SUSPECTED.
Inquiry in the Apia Municipal Council
as to Whether the Yacht Norma
Struggled in Arms.

When Prince Bert Peterson left here
on Commodore Viewers yacht Norma
there was a fear felt among some of
his friends that he had been shang-
haied When he arrived in Apia there
was fear felt there that he was on
a filibustering expedition as witness
the following from the proceedings of
the Apia Municipal Council of January
16, published in the Samoa Herald of
January 20:
Mr.. Carruthers asked the President
whether he could furnish the Council
with particulars about report said
to have been sent home from here re-
garding the smuggling of firearms by
different merchants, more especially by
Commodore Weaver.
1.-THE President in reply regretted his
inability to give full particulars, as
the records of his office in mere depart
ment matters are not open to the pub
lie He could only say that nothing is
known to the customs authorities Of
smuggling arms to any extent, and
that he had forwarded home a despatch
stating that the alarming rumors
about fresh imports of arms and am
munitiOn into the Islands were ground
/ less"
The arrival of the Norma at Apia is
thus reported by the Herald:
| United States Yacht Norma, SO tons
arrived in port on Saturday, December
| 2, from Japan ana Honolulu via Fan
nings Island. Fine weather and calm
until the day before reaching the Sa-
moan coast, when it blew very hard.
/ Commodore Weaver is owner and sails
his own vessel. The Norma is manned
by of a crew. A few days previous
to arrival one of the hands fell over
board and was drowned; every effort
was made to save the man. Two gen.
tlemen and two ladies are guests of the

HEAD OF THE MALTA.
Deputy In Parliament and How He
Was Arrested.

A prosecution which has just been
initiated in Italy and now forms the
subject of every conversation here and
the daily theme of leading articles is of
national Importance. Sig. Palizzolo,
knight commander of the crown of
Italy and the deputy for Palermo in
the Italian parliament, has been arrest
ed. Members of parliament cannot be
tried without the permission of the
house, which is granted or withheld
after an inquiry, generally consuming
several days The Scilian deputy,
therefore, considered himself safe so
long as the police did not ask the per-
mission to arrest him, and he walked
about the streets of Palermo unmoleSt-
ed He had taken precautions, never
theless and everything was ready for
him to start for Syracuse and take the
steamboat which daily crosses to Malta
at the first notice that his case had
come before parliament. His escape
would have been a deathblow to the
ministry, because Palizzolo's is not an
ordinary case He is said to be the
head of the secret association called
the Malta, having ramifcations all
over Sicily, reigning supreme in the
island and so powerful that late gov
ernments are said to have sought it's
support in electoral contests. But the
pellOuN ministry was equal 10 inc &c
casion. At a sitting of the chamber
of deputies the minister of justice I'M
expectedly announced that the police
wanted" Palizzolo, and at the moment
of this announcement orders were sent
to stop Geographic communications
with Sicily. Baron Gounino, the lead
er of the majority, Immediately pro-
posed that the sitting be suspended for
an hour, after appointing a committee
to examine at once and report whether
the request for the prosecution of u
deputy should be granted. At p. m.
the house agreed to allow the prosecu-
ton, and a telegram reached Paler-
mo ordering the arrest of the Sicilian
deputy. Palizzolo was found in bed
when the police broke into his palace
and he was quietly taken to prison, an
undertaking which would have been
attended with difficulties if the Malta
adopts had had the least inkling that
the telegraphic interruption which iso-
lated Sicily from 3 to Z p. m. was not
due to 1.-The state of the weather"
