ICE PLANT
AT MOLOKA|
The Need of the Leper
Settlement.
SUPER|NTEKDENT'S PLANS
Poor Live Beef Makes imperative
Refrigerator Scheme for the
Colony.

1t is quite likely that a small ice
plant will soon be purchased for the
Molokai settlement For some time
past the necessity of such an establish
ment at the settlement has been realiz-
ed by Superintendent Reynolds. At the
present time there Is no method at the
settlement whereby water may be cool
ed or meats kept for even very brief
period, and an ice plant is badly need
ed. Mr.. Reynolds has been correspond
| ing for some time with manufacturers
lofjice plants ins an endeaVors to ascer-
| tain at what price u small plant can be
obtained and he hopes to lay his plans
before the Board of Health at some
meeting in the near future.
The meat question is the most serious
one that is now confronting the super
intendent of the settlement. The beef
which has been furnished to the set
tiers for some time past past has been
of the most inferior quality, and 1t has
cost the Board an eXorbitant sum-
Where some time ago the Board was
obtaining beef at a cost of SIS per head
delivered at the settlement with n
guarantee for twenty-four hours, the
price now asked is $25 per head, and
the Board must pay 81 for the transpor-
tation of every beast to the settlement
and stand all the risk of injury on
board and loss when they are being
swum from the steamer to the land
ing. AS consequence the cattle are
costing the Board S32 head, and many
are so thin and poor that they are use
less for food purposes when they have
been safely landed.
Some time ago the Board passed
resolution, whereby tenders for furnish
ing the settlement with canned beef
We're asked, but up to the present time
haan hnnna mr.
contract has been made for the pro-
posed method of solving the problem.
There Is likewise considerable prejudice
in the Islands generally against the
idea of furnishing canned beef to the
settlers, and 1t is likely that If the
canned beef Is finally sent to the set
Element 1t VIII constitute but portion
OF the meat ration furnished. and fresh
meat win also be allowed the settlers
with the canned beef as well.
But at present, what with the beef on
hand and no prospect of lettering the
supply, Mr.. Reynolds has been hard put
to find proper substitute for meat for
his charges Last week he revived an
old plan of furnishing the settlement
with fish. The residents prefer fish to
meat when they can get 1t, and aided
by favorable weather several large
hauls were made off the settlement. The
day Mr.. Reynolds left the settlement
for this city, in one haul, 5000 pounds
OF fish We're obtained. II fish could be
obtained In such quantities at all times
there would be no difficulty about the
food supply of the settlement, but there
are sometimes months when the condi- |
ton of the ocean is such that II would |
be impossible to draw nets, so while |
the fish furnish an agreeable change of |
diet for the settlers, fish cannot be re- |
led upon to supply the place OF fresh |
meat. Y.

Australia's Close Call.

| SAN FRANCISCO, August 15.-The
steamer Australia, arriving from Homo
lulu this afternoon, came very near
! making record run into the wharf
| Only the promptness of her officers saw
ed her from running into the bulkhead
between Pacific and broadway wharves
at full speed, and demolishing the tug
| Lottie, which was lying in her BERTH
The tide was on the ebb when the
steamer, aided by tug. turned into
her wharf at Pacific street. and a big
head of steam was necessary to carry
her In. When Captain LawIess at
tempted to ring to slow down, he
found the bell wire leading to the en-
gine-room out OF gear.
The captain was on the bridge. but he
reached the main deck with the speed
OF hound after hare. At the same
moment Chief Engineer Nieman had
come on deck, and, taking in the situa-
ton at glance. turned and slid down
the engine stairs.
Full speed astern!" he cried.
But the register" began the first
assistant engineer.
Full speed astern" yelled NIeman
- the register!"
Just as the engine was reversed Cap
tain Lawless reached the engine-room
crying out the order that had Just gone
into effect
The wharf WAS crowded with people,
and their hearts went into their threats
as they saw the steamer dashing nlong
toward the bulkhead. and then saw
Captain Lawless rush down the Geek.
But the danger was passed. The steam-
er came to stop; the bell gear was
adjusted and soon the Australia was
alongside.

Paris Exposition Commission Fig-
urcs Growing to Stupendous Size.
Washington, Oct. 2.-Otficials in
Washington know very little of the de-
tails Of Ferdinand Peck's administra-
ition of his Office as commissioner-gen
eral to the Paris exposition. The last
official figures available are those of
March 81, 1900. Assuming that Mr. Peck.
maintains approximately the same staff
now that he had al that time. and all
lowing for the compensation of nineteen
honorary commissioners at $4,000 each,
the expenditures for salaries, exclusive
of what is paid to pr diem employees, is
at the rate of not less than $296,G0O a
year. Commissioner Peck's appointment
holds good until June 80, 1901, and it is
presumed that many of his assistants
will also draw salary until that time.
Mr. 5Peck's own salary has remained at
SIS, 900 since his appointment. His son.
Ferdinand w. Peck, Jr., was put on the
roll at 81, 400 on Jan. 1, 1900. and his SAL
airy was subsequently increased to $4,000.
The directors of various departments
were first appointed at salaries ranging
/, from $4,000 to $4,000. Most of these sal
aries We're subsequently increased to
from 81 500 to s6,20O. Assistant directors
were treated with the sau1e liberality.
| Men who received at first s1,500 Were ad-
lyanced to $4,000. All of these salaries
| are in addition to travelling expenses,
which have been paid with liberality.
| The disbursements for travelling expen-
lssesS up to March 81 1900, amounted tc
| SIC, 6o3,s7 OF this amount s4,92176 was
\ expended for Commissioner Genera
I Peck's personal travelling expenses. The
total expenditures of the commission
for all purposes up to March 81, 1900
amounted to s60S, ,2S3.S7.

CHICAGO LABOR WAR OVER.

Men Nearly All Back at Work With
No Gain to Either Side.
Chicago, Oct. 2.C Chicag go's labor war,
as far as the building trades are con-
cerned, is no w considered practically at
an end, and neitherSof the parties to the
controversy has gained material advan-
stage over the other. From official
sources 1t was learned yesterday that
1880 men, members of unions affiliated
with the building trades council, are
actually employed In Chicago at pres
ent. and a careful estimate proves that
not more than Is per cent of the build
ing trad es " orkmenS of Chicago are out
of work. When business is good and
the contractors and the unions are
working in harmony the percentage OF
idle men often exceeds that figure.
AS consequence, labor leaders infer
that the controversy between the con-
tractors and the building trades has fiz-
zed out, and work has been resumed in
spite of the building contractors coun-
Gil and the building trades council. the
two contending bodies which have beer
