WHARF AND WAVE.

The Edward May was quarantlned
upon arrival at Kauai from Maui
There were fify-one sailing vessels
in the harbor last evening at 6 y. m.
The bark Nuuanu leaves for Kahului
today 10 load Spreckelsville and Wal
luku sugar for New York.
The Makee discharged her sugar in
to the Rithet and the Lehua's cargo
went to the Australia.
The transport Port Albert was taxi
ing aboard water for the stock. and
expected to leave Hilo for Manila on
Sunday.
The Iwalanl is to take the place OF
the Nikahala as quarantine ship for
men OF the Island fleet. She will be
anchored outside instead OF in the har-
Dor.
The bark Sebastian Bach, lying out
side, Is being fumlgated before coming
in. She Is In a pretty badly damaged
condition and leaking at the rate OF
about three or four Inches per hour.
This water is kept down by the wind
mill aboard, and Is easily controlled
while the vessel Is at anchor. In a
seaway the bark leaks very badly and
she Is generally considered by men
who have seen her to be In pretty bad
fix. She Is nearly thirty years old and
has had some hard usage. A board OF
survey will probably be appointed to
inspect the vessel. The captain wants
to stay outside until he can communi-
cate with his owners. 1t Is not yet set
tied what is to be done. In antlcipa-
ton of bringing her In the fumigation
Is now being done.

Gasoline Pleasure Launch.

Within a few weeks the Honolulu
pleasure fleet will welcome novel ad-
dition to its numbers in the form OF
Archd. A. Young's gasoline launch.
The vessel is OF handsome design being
As feet long, Q feet beam and Az
draught. She was designed to meet her
owners idea OF what goes to make up
an ideal pleasure or service craft. The
cabin is arranged for sleeping accom-
mediation and the vessel is lighted
throughout with electricity.
The vessel has been built under the
direction of the Union Gas Engine
Company OF San Francisco, for whom
The Won Hamm- Young Company are
the Hawaiian agents, and Is fitted with
one of their well-known engines, ca
pable of developing 40 horse power.
These engines will give her speed of
IL knots or any speed under In pro-
portion to the amount Of fuel consum-
ed: the machinery being so arranged,
that the engines can be run at any re-
quired speed
II is Mr.. Young's opinion that II Is
only q question of time when a dozen
or more OF such craft will be seen In
these waters. Their usefulness for SER
vice Is no longer a question. They are
In constant use by the United States
Custom department in San Francisco
and other seaboard cities. The need of
such vessel for the harbor is well APP
preciated; in fact II Is understood that
an option on this vessel has already
been secured. With two or more of such
vessels. the waterfront people could
cope with many problems which are to-
day beyond their control. The great
advantage OF the gasoline engine over
steam is that the former is always
ready for action.

matter Of the appropriation Of 400

plague. and read the following act.
An Act OF the Council OF State.
An Act Making Special Appropriation
for Payment OF Expenses Incurred
by the Epidemic OF Bubonic
Plague
BE It enacted by the Council OF State
OF the Republic OF Hawaii:
Section ]. The following sum,
amounting to 100000. Is fc-eby APP
proprlated to be paid out OF all the
moneys n the Treasury received from
ali the current receipts OF the general
revenues of the Republic of Hawaii:
To be placed to the credit OF
the fund for the suppress
sion OF bubonlc plague $1,000
Mr.. Damon stated there we're still
$4,000 OF the former appro priation
left, but OF this amount $13S, 900 would
be paid out for bills already contracted
in the hands OF the auditor. The Gov
eminent now needed further funds to
suppress the plague. The bill was
passed without argument.
Minister Young then made n state
ment regarding the lands for the de-
tention camp. The owners of the land.
where 1t could not be leased. had
agreed that the Government could re-
mc"a the buildings and other improve
ments at the expiration of the time.
Mr.. Richards would lease the Vineyard
street land for a rental of $3.50 a year;
but as he wished to erect line OF
stores on a portion Of the land, would
give them the balance at a pro rata
rental. There was $1,000 needed for
the sewer on Vineyard street, which,
when finished, could be connected with
the sewer system. In extending the
sewer system 1t was the purpose of the
Government to add spurs to the plans
wherever necessary to reach suffi
cient number of outlying residences.
Council adjourned at 4:30 p. m.

feet in diameter, collapsed at 7:35 o'clock

a crash that was heard many blocks.
The entire superstructure, Dinety-tive

part across Spring street and the lower
section in the opposite direction. The
pipe held $4,000 gallons OF water and
was full al the time, though much was
frozen.

wreck looked as though an icy avalanche
had struck It, and after the water
had run down the hill toward the river
the huge ice cakes, many Of them weigh

living opposite the tower, saw the
massive pills' as it fell directly toward
her house. and the shock caused her t.
