and Tanaka, in the cabin, besides four
Japanese and ten Chinese in the steer
age. There were thirty-four through
cabin passengers and PA Japanese and
267 Chinese. Those landing here came
ashore in a scow. A driZzling rain
made the farewells to departing ones
less lively than usual. though each
passenger had a friend or two to bid
him aloha.
DIR. II. V. Murray was on the Nippon
Maru as acting surgeon. He Is well
known here. He left Honolulu last

manently.

Representative of San Francisco
Health Board Talks

Dr. KatsuH, when questioned yes
terday by an Advertiser representa-
tive concerning the report that he was
of the opinion that there was no bu-
bonic plague in Honolulu, said:

idea as that with which ! seem to be
credited In regard to the plague. hold
an honorary relationship with the
Board OF Health OF San Francisco and
keep that body posted all the time
concerning the sanitary conditions as
well as the plague conditions OF these

have occurred since my arrival here, /

Board. having satisfied myself that in
each case plague existed. / have never

Chinese in the steerage. There were
"a through cabin passengers and PA
Japanese and 267 Chinese. The people
for this place came ashore on the
scow. The Nippon took on water here
but no coal.
The transport Grant will get away
today for Manila. The four men who
came ashore Monday night were refus-
ed admittance aboard the vessel. They
will be left here. The transport quar-
antine is very strict and IL is probable
that the men will be treated as desert
ers and imprisoned at Camp Mckinley
until sent home.

of the Norwegian bark Fortuna, which
arrived from Newcastle last week with
coal. The vessel was locked after the
tug had pumped a lot of water into her
hold, and discharging cargo began at
once. The fire appeared to be amid
ships and it is not known how long Il
has been burning. Ii was thought
that the water pumped by the tug had
put the fire out, but last evening short
ly after six the smoke began pouring
out of the matches and No. / fire en-
CINE was sent to put more water into
the vessel. The engine pumped till s
O'Clock and stopped, as there were
then no more signs of smoke. The
Fortuna is a wooden vessel. and so il
is thought that she may be consider
ably damaged. She will be discharged
as quickly as possible. when an exami-
nation of her hull will be made.
Next Century Loading.
The first charter from Northwest
ern port for next century loading has
just been reported. The German ship
Wilkommen has been chartered for
wheat-loading from a Sound port at 3Ss
Sd for December, 1900, or 37s cd for
January, 1901, with the option of sal
on the Frazer river at 40
These are the highest rates
that have been paid this season for a
ship so far distant, and indicate great
faith in the market for freights. For
Portland loading quite a number of
ships have been taken as far along as
November and December, but thus far
37s Cd has been the limit paid for new
crop business, while some of the ships
were secured as low as 80 shillings.
There is very little nearby tonnage
available, and none OF it is Offering.
San Francisco claims the distinction OF
having a disengaged ship on spot In the
Tinto Hill, but Liverpool advices report
her as chartered over a month ago at
37s Cd for wheat-barley loading at San
Francisco, March 81 cancellation. This
is about 4 shillings under the price at
which tonnage can be secured in San
Francisco at the present time. Under
such circumstances it is but natural
that lumber freights should soar up 20
almost prOhibitive rates. Latest quota
