QUARANTINE SCHEME PAU
CHANGE IN PLAN OF ISLAND
SHIPMENTS.
General Cargoes are Being Loaded for
Other Islands Without Wharf Fumi-
cation or Quarantine.

The proposed new quarantine scheme
at the island wharves appears to have
died a-bornin'. The fifteen foot fences
are all up and the wharves have been
cleaned off, but there is no sign of fumi-
cleaned off there is no sign of the rigid
quarantine that was to have been OBJ
served to protect the enclosures from
the troublesome germs that were 10
stay this side of the boards.
General freight shipments to the
other islands have been resumed with
out the formalities outlined by the
Board of Health committee which made
up the scheme for the resumption of
such traffic. The steamer w. G. Han is
loading a cargo of general merchandise
for Kauai today at the Inter
Island wharf. She is fastened con-
siderable distance from the dock The
freight is hauled on to the wharf on
wagons and put aboard without further
ado. The disinfeCtion is done before
the stuff leaves the warehouse or store
of the shipper
One of the reasons why the whole
scheme was not put into practice is
said to have been a vigorous kick from
the retail shippers, who claimed that
they were placed at a disadvantage by
the Board of Health rules. 1t was sti-
4ulated in the latter that freight must
go in original packages, and this re-
Strlcted shipments OF some JnlnSS 10
the wholesale trade.
Large quantities of freight are being
sent to the island wharves now, and
all the steamers will have all they can
carry if the traffic is not interrupted
again. The quarantine wharf scheme
IS still adhered to and business will
begin there Monday.
The building of the fences is not re-
E-crded as a waste, as they are an i'm
DrOvement to the wharves anyhow, ard
they do serve IN a measure to keep
waterfront loafers away.
This morning work was begun upon
a fumigating plant at Kinau wharf,
with the aid of which the committee
scheme may be inaugurated next week.
1t is thought, however, that the I'M
proved conditions as regards plague re-
move the need of such strictness as was
contemplated and the present plan
may be continued.

PauncefOte,s Mand In II.

Great Britain, according to curren,
gossip In Washington, has n finger In
the Puerto Rican pie.
Lord pauncefote, 1t Is said so charmed
with his success Ia obtaining from the
Secretary Of State u promise that free
port facilities might be granted TO Canada
on the Lynn Canal and vt the success OF
his negotiations over the Nicaragua
Canal, conceived that IL would be good
idea to protect the West India colonies
of his country the chief market Of which
Is the United States,
The colonies have been prodding the
British government ever since the war
and emphasizing the fact that II Puerto
Rico enjoyed free trade with the United
States, Jamaica, the Bahamas and Brit.
ish Honduras would suffer severely.
The new American territory would
enjoy tremendous advantage and In
evitably agriculture there would spring
up and the fruit trade OF the British
possessions would be threatened.
To give Puerto Rico such an advantage
would, In British opinion, be almost an
unfriendly act, as II would invite
pttltlOUs lTOui bue DTltlsH COlouie5 w
be annexed to the United States.
The feeling Of amity which Secretary
Hay desires TO foster, would have
been seriously disturbed. Therefore,
Ambassador Pauncefote is said TO have
intimated TO the Secretary Of State that
absolute free trade for Puerto Rico
would seriously embarrass the British
government, and as far rs he could the
Ambassador Is said to have argued
against the proposition,
This story would not be'credited In
intelligent circles had not the Hay
pauncefote treaty been sanctioned by
the State Department, and had not other
evidences been given, notably IN the
Macrum case, that the British Foreign
Office Is more potent with this adminis-
tration than are the American people.
