DEATH DELAYED
THE JAP LINER
Passenger Died OF Pneu-
monia While Nippon Maru
Was in Port.

Death delayed the sailing of the Jap
liner Nippon Maru for San Francisco
yesterday morning. The steamer was
to have sailed at 10 o'clock in the
morning, but did not leave port until
about II o'clock
A Japanese steerage passenger was
taken i'll and died suddenly, early in
the morning. The doctors of the Ma
rine Hospital were called in and an
autopsy was held. 1t was stated on
the steamer that the man had died
from heart trouble, but from the au-
topsy the physicians said that he had
died of pneumonia. At the request Of
the shipping company the Jap's bod
was removed to Quarantine Island for
cremation.
There was also some delay in hand
ling the big cargo brought to this port.
Captain Soltan, the Russian army
officer who was on the Nippon Maru as
passenger, stated before leaving Ho-
nolulu that he thought this city beau
tiful place for tourists to visit. He
said that many very wealthy Russian
travellers who are making use of the
new Trans-Siberian Railway might be
induced to take an Ocean trip to Ho-
nolulu if they were apprised of the
beauties of the place.
| Another traveller had this criticism
to make of Honolulu: 81 am Informed
that your city is anxious to secure
tourists. You certainly have many at
! fractions to offer them, but I think
that it would be a very good thing il
you had your streets around the
wharves asphalted. Mrs. Hayes, the
wife of the Surgeon-General of the
Siamese navy, just told me that sht
would be unable to say that she Liked
Honolulu, as she declares that sh,
could not leave or return to the steam
er without encountering lots of mud.
The Nippon Maru took seventy-si,
sacks of mail which included mucl
Christmas matter.

MEN OF SEA HAVE
GOOD TIME THERE
interesting Work of the Mission
to Seamsn Society's
Rooms.

Sailors reading, writing, boxing,
playing checkers and dominoes, and
throwing coiled ropes around small
stakes, are some of the sights one sees
in the big room occupied by the Homo
lulu branch of the Mission to Seamen
Society at the corner of Nuuanu and
Queen street.
The sailor, after long voyage, if
he is not of the variety that loses his
money in the saloons, can find pleas
ure room there in which to while away
a few hours time The Mission to
Seamen Society has branches all over
the world, and the Honolulu branch
has been running about five months
The object of the society is to keep
sailors off the streets and out of sa-
looms, while at the same time the
chaplain has chance to put in word
or two to each man about the religious
side of life. To do this, the club room
morning until 10 o'clock at night, and
during that period there are usually
a few sailors there all the time. Ship
ping papers and magazines are on the
tables and writing materials can be
used without any charge Some rat
Ting good boxing contests are some
times sprung by the sailors, and at
times the fright to rib" and left hook
to jaw" are the real articles.
The institute receives money in the
same way as bank, and this can be
drawn by the sailor at anytime or paid
to them by the branch of the institute
in San Francisco.
Honolulu ladies have interested
themselves in the Institute, and during
the next month concerts will be given
in the Institute each Saturday evening
| Old magazines, pictures, and any ar.
ticle that can be of service in the In.
stitute is gratefully received there, anC
in time it should be made cosy place
One can judge of the usefulness OF the
room from the fact that since it ha!
been opened over three thousand sail
ors have visited it. The officers il

WERE BECALM MED.
FOR FOUR DAYS
Fate Of Archer and Edward May
Which Get Into Port
Yesterday.

The bark Edward May and the bark
entine Archer, which arrived yester-
day from San Francisco. each being
nineteen days on the passage, had hard
luck on nearing the Islands. Both ar
rived off Molokai on Monday, after
fifteen day passages from the Coast,
but were Immediately becalmed and
were unable to make this port until
Friday morning.
The Edward May was in sight Of
Koko head on Monday, and if the wind
had lasted for three hours more the
vessel could have made Honolulu. As
it was, she had to drift around, off the
Maui and Molokai coasts, until Thurs
day evening, when a very light wind
carried her through the channel. She
got to about nine miles off port, when
the tug Fearless steamed out and
picked her up.
Captain Calhoun, in the Archer,
approached Molokai on Monday after
noon, but was becalmed and also held
until last night. The Fearless brought
the vessel in about noon on Friday.
The Archer has a full cargo of gen.
eral merchandise. The Edward May
has cargo of 1900 tons of general
merchandise, but will haveeto take a
part of this to Makawei. Her hold is
full and she has quite a deck load
while some packages of merchandise
even had to be stored in the cabin.
The Archer is discharging at the new
Hackfeld wharf, and the May is a
Brewers wharf.
Captain Hanson stated yesterda.
that he had rough weather on leavin;
San Francisco, but for the last twelvt
days had no trade winds and had t
make the run against southerly an,
contrary winds.

The Hindoo crew of the steamship

all sick with la grippe, and a number

The Quito has heretofore been oper-

A spasmodic effort TO expel the mucus
from the bronchial tubes. A cold causes
a more abundant secretion of mucus,
and when the lungs and bronchial

sensitive to the irritation. Unless care
is taken, the cold may result in pneu-

NEW ORLEANS COTTON MARKET.

New Orleans, Sept. 16.-Quite a brisk
demand for spot cotton developed early
this forenoon, and though offerings
were by no means large a very fair
amount of trading was INDUCED in at
prices ranging a good 1-16c better than
those prevailing yesterday.
The future market was fairly active
ana there was a noteworthy improve
ment in the character of the movement
in that there was a marked increase in
the interior order trade On the first
call the market was to points higher
than yesterdays closing prices, moving
up to points additional thereafter.
AT that level there was a halt and
prices fell off 1 to points under the
influence of realizing sales. This was
followed by series of quick fluctua-
lions that continued we'll on to the
close, when the board showed net gains
of points on September, on October
and to 10 on the other months.

The expectation of the early entrance
of European spinners in the American

better demand. Reports are to the eff
feet that domestic mills are soon to
enter. and if these are true there is the
possibility of both the foreign and do
nestle elements getting into the mar

theory some have become rampant

H. & II. Beer Co... Cotton Letter.

New Orleans, Sept. 16.-Liverpool ad-
vices were more encouraging than
looked for. owing to Galveston News
estimate that Texas crop pointed to 10
per cent. under last year. Our market
in sympathy opened six points higher,
subsequently improved IA additional on
fresh buying and was accelerated by
the unfavorable weekly weather report.
Subsequently, however, considerable
realizing occasioned a break of 10 from
the top, making the net gain on the
day 10 points. The summary of the
weekly wea Their report was as follows:
1.-THE very cool weather has checked
the opening of cotton in the. central
and western section of the cotton re-
gion. Picking has advanced rapidly
generally throughout the belt, and as a
rule, under favorable conditions. AL
though pickers have been inadequate
in some states. Over the southern por-
lions of the cotton belt, the bulk of
the crop has been gathered and in some
sections many fields are already aban-
doned. Rains have caused damage to
open cotton in portions of Arkansas,
Louisiana, Georgia, Florida and South
Carolina"
Spots were firmer and higher in the
interior and it looks as if holders are
confident of receiving higher values
ultimately The action of the Liver
pool to-day and the favorable charac-
ter of Manchester advices yesterday
would indicate that spinners are be-
ginning to get uneasy. Any marked
improvement in the demand for spots
will be speedily reflected in the de-
livery market. A rumor was circulated
that Mr. Neill would soon issue bull
ish circular, another stated he was
coming out with an estimate of 10,S00,-
600: we know that Mr.. Neill has denied
these rumors, so no Importance are to
be attached to them. The situation
looks healthy. and we continue to ad-
wise buying on all depressions, with
view of realizing on strong periods.
