HAUGHS' REPORTS
ON HILO FORESTS

Forester Haughs made his report yes
terday of the results of his recent visit
to Honomu. Kuhua, Makahamaloa
and Papaikou on Hawaii: Speaking of
conditions there he says;
''As far as / can see this forest is in
no danger from the lower side, but there
is great danger from the sheep and cat
tie ranches, above the forest belt Sheep
can find their way through a forest
where man cannot follow them. con-
slider sheep do more damage to a forest
than cattle. Therefore j would suggest
that the mauka forest line be fenced
with sheep proof fence. There is TO
need of any reforesting in the Hilo
district but there Is great need of for
est protection, and especially the mar
row parts Of this forest belt. The next

the forests are not of much value; US
regards the timber qualities there Is for
est enough on lands that cannot be cul-
tivated to insure a big percentage of
forest lands against all the lands that
are suitable for cultivation.
He also speaks OF the Ohia trees grow
ing upon the lava. though not a parti-
Gle of soil can be seen. He suggests that
In conclusion Forester Haughs refers to
a visit made by him to DR.. Russelrs ex-
perimental station. stating that the
work being accomplished by the doctor
Is highly commendable.

Constanunople. Oct 3l.-The Turkish
government is preparing TO resist the
anticipated demand of the United
States for the repayment of the ran

Miss Ellen NJ. Stone. The Porte re-
pudiates all responsibility for the kid

that the United States has no claim
against Turkey. and that. therefore,
the latter Is justified in refusing to
recoup the United States for the mon
ey expended in her rescue.
a high Turkish official this morning
informed representative Of the Asso-
ciated Press that the Turkish resist
ance OF any claims would be based
upon the contentious. first. that Miss
Stone. although warned OF the dangers

Miss Stone and her companion, were
Bulgarians; that the coup was planned
in Bulgaria. and that sanctuary was
found In Bulgarian territory.

on the Pacific Coast. The opinion pre-
walls that when the beet sugar produc-
ers decline TO meet the recent cut of the
Western Sugar Refinery, that Mr..
Spreckels has decided to hold out no
longer against the counter movement
made by the beet sugar producers. The
withdrawal of the Spreckels refinery
has brought the Oxnard and Alameda
sugars for the first time in several
weeks on the Los Angeles market. Los

Refinery Is not selling any beet sugar

fective way of convincing the Sultan
that Frances patience is exhausted and
that we have decided to enforce an i'm
mediate settlement of the Turkish gov
ernment's engagements. We, however.
are very hopeful that the Sultan will
not compel us to so to that extreme.
"Our squadron will not reach the
Greek port before Sunday. The Turk

acted very considerably toward Tur-
key, hoping up to the last moment. that

there is no serious indication OF her do

ed to put stronger pressure to bear, In
the shape of a naval demonstration. It
Is now two months since the French
Ambassador. n. Constans. left Constan-
tinople. His departure failed to pro-
duce the desired effect. On the con-
trary. even the Tubini question, which
was settled by the Sultan's trade. re-
mains unadjusted. The internal sItua-
ton in the Turkish Empire deferred US
for some time from taking drastic
measures to enforce our demands. But
the dignity Of France could not permit
the present state of affairs to be pro-
longed indefinitely. We sincerely hope
the Sultan will fully appreciate the fact
that We cannot any longer be triHed
with. and relieve us from taking further
steps to safeguard our interests"
The official was asked what would
happen in the event of the French
squadron being ordered to seize the
customs and II the Turkish authorities
resisted. and he replied;
That is very unlikely contingency
but IL it occurs suppose We shall have
to lombard that port. We do not want
bloodshed. and I do not believe there
will be any occasion for It."

Pittsburg, July 81. - Everybody is on
the qui vive in strike circles and the
coming conference of the leaders Of the
two contending forces is looked forward
to with mingled hope and fear. Hope,
however, predominates, and peace is
confidently expected by the majority Of

10 o'clock tomorrow morning or as

This statement was made yesterday
by Secretary Williams, of the Anal
gamated association. Beyond this he
declined to discuss the strike in any
form. There was no change in the po-
sition of the two contestants yesterday.
