MARINES TO BE

A Large Force is to Be Sent

Soon.

A marine officer on the army trans
port Fitzpatrick states that within q
years time a force of 400 marines will
be despatched to Honolulu to take sta
ton at Pearl Harbor as a permanent
garrison, and that the probabilities are
that this force will be gradually in
creased to 800 men, and possibly 1000.
At any rate, the command will be un-
der a major Of marines. This is an in
dication of the Importance with which
the naval authorities have invested the
Hawaiian station as base for military
and naval operations.
The marine corps, by the end of the
present year, will be able to station
that number of men here, as there is
now a bill before Congress to increase
the numerical strength of the corps by
a thousand additional men. 1t is I'M
derstood that President Roosevelt is in
favor of. increasing the present force
of 5000 men, to 10000, as the marines
are being used extensively along the

| No settlement of the affairs of the
Inter-Island Telegraph Company, or
the Wireless Telegraph Company, as it
is better known, has been reached
! whereby the company can go ahead
with the transmission of messages as
formerly. When the annual meeting
was held, about two weeks ago, a
statement was made to the stockhold-
ers that a local firm was investigating
the companys resources, in so far as
its electrical paraphernalia was con-
cerned, with view to advancing suf-
ficient cash to enable the plant to re-
sumo. The negotiations are still pend
ing. 1t is also stated that another
firm of financiers has asked to make an
investigation with the same end in
view, and the officers now hope for
early relief. Il
One of the officers stated yesterday

MUSCLE AND BOOKS.

Physical culture as it is taught in the
public schools of today comes delight
fully near to meeting with all of the re-
qurements planned for it score of
years ago by progressive educators, who
were. at that time, looked upon as ideal
lists. Until 1890, though much had been
accomplished in the way of contriving
novel modes of teaching and study, it
was plainly to be seen that the increased
demands of the school curriculum, how
ever beneficial mentally, tended to en-
danger the child physically. The burden
was becoming greater than the strength
to bear it In latter days it has grown
to be well recognized fact that every
child mind is co-ordinated with a body
to be properly developed. That the
physique should be carefully looked after
Is now as freely conceded as that the
verb should be made to agree with its
subject in person and number. Appli-
ances have been put into the high

railroads have paved the way for n
conference between the and
their employees which. IL is hoped. VIII
lead to the settlement OF the freight
handlers strike. The conference which
will be the result of the work % the
held tomorrow morning In the Offices
OF the respective managers
The board OF arbitration tonkSht
made the following recommendation
which has been accepted by the rail-
roads and by the freight handlers:
That a committee OF five. four af
whom must be employees of their re-
spective railroads and having full pow
er TO act, meet with the proper officers
Of the said railroads during the fore
noon Of Saturday. July 18th TO settle
the existing differences between the
railroads and the freight handlers"
The members of the board OF arkI-
trati0n have prepared n list or de-
mands for the men To present To the
railroads tomorrow morning.
There was more rioting today than
yesterday. but nobody was seriously
injured. The chief sufferers were
teamSters who tried to deliver goods at
the freight houses. All the streets
leading to the depot were picketed and
IL was impossible for a TO get
a load to any depot withou being
stopped.
If the conference between the gem
eral IA and the strikers does
not LEAD to the settlement OF the strike
il is a practical certainty that all the
members OF the teamsters' union Will
go out. The drivers for the commission
houses 81 South Water street informed
their employers this afternoon that
they would handle goods FOR the Lake
Lines and for the express companies.
but they would not after tomorrow de-
liver anything to The freight houses or
haul anything away from them. This
means. according 10 the commission
men, that $500. 900 worth of produce,
which Will arrive tomorrow morning.
will be allowed to spoil unless the
strike is settled before noon.
n commission men have determined
TO convert as much as possible OF their
supplies to The express companies at
outlying stations. This Will mean an
immediate increase of % per cent. in
the prices OF all vegetables as the ex-
press charges Will be added 10 the
usual cost OF freight.
