CUSTOMS FORCE
NOW INCREASED
Promotions Among the Old Guarc
and New Appointments to be
Made Tom orrow.

The increase in the customs force
outside men; where there are now
three district officers there will b.
four. The six disCharging inspectors
will be increased to nine. The two
watches as now arranged are with six
men to the watch, six hours on and
six Off. There are to be three watches
under the new order, with thirteen men
to the watch, working six-hour shifts.
More men might profitably be used,
but the new force will be nearly double
the number employed for year past.
With nine discharging inspectors the
vessels unloading can be well handled,
as inspectors will each have at most
two vessels. This can be done we'll In
March one inspector discharged six
vessels at one time, and many of the
officers have had from three to four
vessels to handle at one time.
With the small force during the great
rush. and the complications arising
from quarantine, 1t is almost impos-
s!ble to estimate the care necessary for
the guarding of the revenue; but this
has been done. and with very little
loss. The appointments to the new po-
sitions have not yet been made. Col
lector Stackable and Port Surveyor
Stratemeyer are selecting the men
from large number of applicants for
the new positions. The applications re-
ceived have been very numerous. but
among them were found but few bids
for positions from Hawaiians.
From the regular force selections will
be made of men worthy OF promotion.
and there is good deal OF speculation
among the men of the present force az
to who will be promoted.

fight fr the right way Suth Main

pany. which has been on for nearly 4
week. has reached more acute and
sensational stage than ever. Some
time after midnight Thursday COmmis-
sioner Alexander Bryan with 4 force
of men raided the section of track
which was relaid Thursday by the COM
pany between the city limits and
Houghton's lake and ripped up por-
ton Of it. having showed of the rails
the cars and wagons placed thereon by
the track builders.
Sherin Comes to the Rescue.
While they were enga ged in this
work the sheriff arrived. accompanied
by several deputies and Iohn Eddy,
general manager Of the railway COM
pany. Bryant and his forces retreated.
Pistols were displayed, but no shots
were fired Manager Eddy had war
rants sworn out for Bryant and q num-
Der of his force upon charges of de-
stroying property and treSpaSs. The
track was then relaid. the cars and
wagons again placed upon the rails
and armed guards left to patrol the
track.

The commissioners declare they will
tear up the track as often aS ii is laid
upon the townships pavement grade,
while the owners of land along the road
declare that If the track is laid on one
side of the road contiguous TO their
property they viii rip II up. The street
car people assert that the county su-
pervisOrS gave them Il franchise to lay
their track on the road without Speci-
flying on what part of the road. and
they declare they intend to maintain
their rights at all hazards. There is
grave danger OF active hostilties at
any hour.

a negro from British Guiana, and 200
OF his fellow British subjects have
prepared a petition TO Hon Percy San
6erson, British consul, asking him TO
take the necessary steps for their pro
lection. The petition alleges that the
signers were brutally attacked by the
mob in the recent riots in this city.
and that the police, instead of Civ
ing them protection, actually urged
and melted the mOg to greater fury.
The consul is reminded that the
signers. a : subjects OF her Britannia
majesty, have been educated to re-
spect law and order and the legally
constituted authorities, and if permit
ted will do so. They believe. however,
that there is not adequate protection
afforded to them under the present cir
eumstanCes. and Consul Sanderson is
respectfully petitioned to take such
steps as he deems wise in the premises.
