The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1901-08-17
STEAMSHIP LINE 70 H|LO.
HAWAII TO HAVE CONNECTION
WITH FRISCO.
Captain William Matson has Purchased
Enterprise for That Trade-Will
Handle Only Freight for Present.

SAN FRANCISCO, August 4.-Hilo is
to have a regular steamship service. At
first it will be for freight only" but in
the near future may see first-class pas
senger boats on the run. Hitherto Ho-
nolulu has been the only port in the Ha-
waiian group that has been so favored,
but now the second city in Importance
among the islands is making bid for
recognition and will not be denied.
Captain William Matson has purchas-
ed the American steamship Enterprise
and in few days she will begin loading
for Hilo. The intention is to keep her
permanently in this trade and add other
steamships to the line as the occasion
warrants.
Back in the eighties a 2O0-ton vessel
was considered big for the Hilo trade,
and in 1887, when Captain Matson built
the brig Lurline, everybody laughed at
him and wondered where he would get
freight enough to fill her. There was
no trouble about the freight question
however, and in a few years the Lur-
line was not big enough for the trade
so the bark Annie Johnson was bought
and put on the run. The latter was
formerly the British bark Ada Iredale,
but while coming here from Australia
with cargo of coal caught fire and
burned to the waters edge. She drift
ed ashore on Tahiti and was rebuilt I'M
der the American flag. Since coming
under the MatsOn flag she has never
met with q mishap.
The Hilo trade with San Francisco
continued to grow and soon another
vessel was required, so Captain Matson
bought the bark Santiago. Next he
purchased the ship Rhoderick Dhu and
not only changed her into a bark, but
also dropped the "h' from her first
name, and she is now the Roderick Dhu.
About this time the Lurline was sold
and soon afterward the four-masted
ship Falls of Clyde was bought and
changed into a four-masted bark. A
month or so ago the ship Marion Chill
colt was added to the fleet and last of
all the steamer Enterprise. The Marion
Chilcott was formerly the British ship
Kilbrannan. She went ashore in Puget
Sound, but was got off by Barneson &
Chilcott of Seattle and put under the
American flag. Her new owner will
change her into bark after she makes
one voyage.
The Enterprise was formerly the
British steamship st. George and a few
years ago was in the Australian pas
senger trade. Her last foreign owner
M. Deederischen of Kiel Germany, sent
her to Cuba during the war with a
cargo of coal and she went ashore in a
fog, almost on the exact spot on which
General Shafter landed his troops. She
was got off and sold to American
parties who repaired her, changed her
name to Enterprise and got an Amer
lean registry for her. She is 1888 tons
gross burden, 322 feet inches long, 35
feet inches beam, 26 feet inches deep
and was built in 1882 at Newcastle-on-
Tyne. She is a splendid sea boat a
large carrier and speedy. as her run of
seventy-two days from Baltimore
shows. She and the Asuncion sailed to-
gether for this port, but the Enterprise
beat her rival ten days.

SATURDAY CLOSING BLOCKED.

The refusal to close Saturday after
moons comes from Captain Soule, of the
Kash store on Hotel street, and the
whole scheme is therefore blocked I'M
less those already signing will consent
to stay with the plan.
Captain Soule, of 1.-THE Kash" says:
my reasons for refusing to close Sat
urday afternoons are briefly these: Sat-
urday afternoon is my business harvest.
We have a large trade among the la
boring men. AS we close at $50 during
the week this trade cannot reach us
until Saturday afternoon. To close up
Saturday afternoons would simply
mean that we would have to keep open
every night during the week to ac-
commodate our customers. Neither l
nor my clerks desire to do this"

1t was shown in the testimony that the

serious injury during an initiation into

The plaintiff stated that the defendants

the ritual, and as the Modern Woodmen
society would not introduce the ritual in
evidence there was nothing to rebut this
claim, consequently the Instructions OF the

AFTER CLARK AGAIN
PRoTEsr FILED AGAINST HTS
TAKING HIS SEAT.


Washington, March 3.-Senator-eaect W.
A. Clark Of Montana will not be permitted
to take his seat in the upper branch of
the federal government II the allegations
contained in a protest filed with Senator
W. A. Chandler Of New Hampshire. and
which will be presented to the senate on
March 4, are proved. The protest has
been filed by H. r. KNAPP Of Helena, rep
r~esenting the labor party out there, and
by interests prominently identified with
the Standard Oil company.
1t is alleged that MI. Clark's personal
contribution in the recent state election
was between $25O,000 and 100000. where
as his sworn statement as to money con-
tributed for campaign purposes placed the
sum at only $4,000; that Senator Clark
throughout the entire state campaign
raid the personal and living expenses of
every member of the Democratic state
committee; that Mr.. Clark spent 100000
ir Silver Bow county, $4,000 in CASCADE
county, $500 in Dawson county to eleet
Senator Cullen and $1,000 In each of the
following counties: Granite, Jefferson,
Broadwater. Beaverhead and Madison.
It is reported on good authority that
Charles Clark, the son of Senator-efect
Clark, is one of those who are opposed
to his fathers admission to h senate,
father and son having fallen out. The
explanation offered for this Is that
Charles Clark. who is a very wealthy
mine owner in his own right. has been
