Porto Ricans ON Para.

With the steamer City of Para, which
vessel arrived Tuesday night, came 4Ot
passengers, the great majority of them
being Porto Rican laborers. The yes
sell waited outside until morning when
she was moored by the Channel wharf
to enable the officials to count the pas
sengers. While the Para was lying
there some small rumpus started among
the Porto Ricans. causing a rumor &c
. circulate along the waterfront that the
men had refused to allow any fumigat-
Ing to be done, and that they would
all have to stay in quarantine for fifteen
days before they would be allowed to
land. This proved to be a mistake how
ever, and during the afternoon boats
from the steamers Hawaii and Iwalani
went out to the City Of Para, which,
by this time had been lowed away from
! the Channel wharf into the stream.
The Hawaii took thirty Porto Ricans
with her for Papaaioa, when she left
for Hawaii yesterday afternoon. and
the Iwalani Will take a number over TO
Hanalei on Kauai today.
The Porto Ricans looked a miserable
lot, as they were crowding together
'tweendecks, some of them being very
ragged. and not a few children prom
enading around without being annoy
ed by other clothes than their hats.
All were counted off on the steamer
and there checks for s. apiece were
given to them, whereafter they were
bundled into the boats. which brought
them over to the local steamers. With
the exception OF a few sick ones, the
crowd upon the whole seemed quite
merry. and "Adios, adios," kept ringing
over the water, as they were taken
ashore from the Para.

of the hull, rendering the vessels APP
pearance radically different from any
thing on this Coast except the lake

THEY RESENT INTRUSION.

That dear old dog of mine; he if

passed his post outside the fence. II
he was in the mood for a nap, he would
lie in some shady spot, and, with half
closed eyes, take i'm dreamily what
great English preacher used to call
this whirling world of Gods"
But II stranger opened the gate,
evidently meaning to walk up the
gravel path to the house, Don Quixote
blade. For il was his duty to resent
intrusion. The more he violated the
Gospel precept the more he hated his
neighbor, the more useful he was; the
more commendable his conduct in the
sight Of his friends.
He Is dead, as ! said In pace, He
was worth the tears we dropped on the
sods that cover him. We loved him for
the enemies he made.
You get the lesson, don't you? Things
that are entitled to respect, things that
have any decent claim to exist, will not
stand to be imposed upon they will
fight: If necessary, they will kill you.

COURT NOTES.

There will be no more delay than the
| exigencies of the law demand in the
condemnation proceedings of the Unit
ed States in the matter of the Pearl
Harbor naval station. Judge Estee yes
terday morning passed upon the motion
of the plaintiff striking out the por.
ton of the answer OF respondents de-
handing a jury, and at the same time
gave notice that no further delays
would be brooked in the matter, AZ the
Department of Justice was anxious to
have the case settled.
In his decision OF yesterday he did not
pass upon the right of respondents to
a jury trial, ruling only upon the ques-
ton of procedure in setting up the de-
mands in an answer
The request for jury as set up in
the answer is clearly irrelevant" said
the court in passing upon the motion.

a proper manner. l will then pass up
on the right of respondents to trial
by jury.
This demand for jury should be
filed as soon as possible, and unless
such demand Is made, the case will
be set down for hearing in order that
1t may be decided as soon as possible.
1t will probably require months for a
final decision, and the Department of
Justice is extremely anxious to have
the matter finally disposed Of and the
defendants should have the same
anxiety for speedy trial. for their

the case can be settled.

question Of compensation. For the gov
eminent cannot take any land unless
it pays for it,"

COLUMBIA CHOSEN
TO DEFEND CUP

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-The Columbia
has been chosen to defend the America s
cup. For the first time one yacht will
defend the trophy for a second time.
The American yacht is a slight favorite
in the betting.
The announcement Of the Columbia 3
selection was well received by yachts
men in the States The first interna-
tional race takes place next Saturday
off Sandy Hook.
Upton when told of the selection said
that all he wanted was to sail the
Shamrock ii. against the fastest boat
in America. The crew OF the Shamrock
argue that their boat was designed to
beat one ten minutes faster than the
Columbia, and so they can surely ben +,
her with the Shamrock H.
A letter of protest signed by fifty
American citizens has been sent to the
New York Yacht club protesting
against the exclusion OF the Independ-
ence from the trial races and threaten
ing, if the Shamrock II. wins. to ask
an injunction from the United States

over the cup to Sir Thomas Upton.

FUEL OIL
FOR HAWAII
UnionCompanyto
Install a Plant
on Maui.
IFrom Thursdays daily

Union Oil Company OF California, arriv-
ed yesterday on the steamship Ven
tura He will establish in the Islands
a plant to supply fuel oil to planta-
tons which have decided to substitute
oil for coal as fuel
Contracts We're made by Mr.. Baker
in San Francisco with Alexander n
Baldwin to install tanks on Maui from
which supplies viii be drawn for the
Hawaiian Commercial Il Sugar plan
tation, PSia plantation, Haiku Sugar
plantation and kihei plantation, for all
of which Alexander & Baldwin are the
agents. The power generating plants
Of the mills viii he modified at once
to enable the arrangements to use fuel
oil instead of coal in the future and
system of conserving tanks will be
erected on sites convenient to all the
plantations. The oil win be conveyed
to the various mills and pumping plants
by means of pipe lines.
The arrival Of Mr.. Baker in the field
with medium to compete with coal
in the generation of power for plan
tation purposes marks a new era in the
development of the sugar industry. Mr..
Baker claims that on an average about
thirty-five per cent is saved by the sub
Stitution of oil as fuel instead Of coal.
This percentage is arrived at by an
average Of the cost for fuel on the
mainland. Comparing the cost for fuel
there with that in the Hawaiian ISL
ands, Mr.. Baker expresses an opinion
that within short time after oil has
been given a practical demonstration.
about fifty per cent win be saved.
The magnitude OF the undertaking
which Mr.. Baker intends establishing
in the Islands is OF unusual proper
tons. His company which is the oldest
in California intends putting on line
of four vessels between coast ports and
the Islands-two steamers and two sail
ing ships.
The company has come to the Islands
to stay and the length of MIR. Bakers
visit will be determined by the delay
in receiving the materials for the con-
structions OF the tanks. The first ship
ment of tank material will come on the
May Flint which will sail from San
Francisco on October 4, arriving here
about the 25th. Several hundred tons
will be put aboard and there will be
three times as much more to arrive by
subsequent vessels. Mr.. Baker, in stat
ing the plans Of the company to an Ad-
vertiser reporter said YESTERDAY:
The Maui plantations have decided
upon oil as a fuel instead of coal and
am here to commence the installation
of the plant. The construction Of the
tanks is a part of our obligation. We
expect to keep on hand a supply Of
about $50, 900 to 200, 900 barrels. This IL
on the basis of our contracts already
secured. This would be an average six
months supply. The Oil will be brought
here from California. We are the larg-
est factors in the oil business on the
coast and control about sixty-fve Der
cent of all the storage. We have more
territory than all the other companies
controlling in the neighporhood of 20o,-
900 acres. Further than this the Union
