CANNOT BUY ECLIPSE. BACK FROM LAYSAN
ALBATROss RETURNS THIS MORN
ING.
Met Bark Albert at Laysan Island.
Visited Various Shoals and Islands on
The Trip.

The United States fishery vessel Al
batrOss, Captain Thomas, arrived this
morning from an extended cruise to
Laysan island and the various other
islands and shoals lying between Ho-
nolulu and Laysan. The vessel left
Honolulu May TO- going by way of Two
Brother reef. She arrived at Laysan
Island May 16.
For the ensuing week double work
was done. One party remained ashore
during the day and surveyed the place.
while others remained on the vessel
which was kept busy cruising about the
island, making soundings and dredging
considerable of the latter work was
done, number of birds were brought
back by the vessel, among them being
the little Laysan Island Canaries.
On May 70, the vessel left LaySan ISL
and, returning by way of Dowsett and
Moro reefs, French Frigate Shoals,
Necker Island and Bird Island The
vessel arrived off the latter island on
June ), but no attempt was made to go
ashore on that day. On the following
day, the weather was so rough that a
landing could not be attempted so in
the evening, the vessel proceeded to
Honolulu.
In docking in Naval Slip No. L the
Albatross bumped into one of the big
naval coal barges which was loaded
with coal which was to be taken to the
Space. a big dent was made i'm one
corner of the barge but the damage was
not very material.
In addition to the work done by the
party at Laysan Island considerable
work was done on both trips. Sound
lnSs We're taken at various points along
the Nessels course and considera BILE va
luable information was secured of the
various reefs and islands.
The bark Albert arrived at Laysan
Island several days after the AIbatross
and at the time that the Albatross sail
ed for Honolulu. had $50 tons of guano
loaded. The bark will bring about 1900
tons more, SO she is not expected to
get away from Laysan Island for about
ten days more.

SCHOONER MAY NOT BE WITHIN
THE APPROPRIATION.
Boyd and the Board of Health's recon-
Sanitary Says the superintendent

Two propositions were passed along
to Superintendent Of Public Works
Boyd yesterday, by the Board of Health
but it appears likely that the board will
get little satisfaction in either case.
Boyd says that the Iwilei wash houses,
with which the board expressed it's dis
satisfaction, are sanitary and much
cleaner than many other places which
the board ignores, and as to the pur-
chase Of the gasoline schooner Eclipse,
recommended by the board, the super
intendent will refer the proposition to
the attorney general, but is inclined to
think that the appropriation cannot be
used for the Eclipse.
The appropriation for the purchase Of
a vessel to do the broad of health busi-
ness for the Leper Settlement, sets aside
$35, 900 for a newly built steamer" The
gasoline schooner is not a steamer and
is not newly built, it is stated, hence
there Is question whether the money
can be paid out for it.
II don't know whether we can get the
money for the Eclipse or not" said
Boyd. THE act says the money is for a
newly built steamer and | doubt whe-
ther we can use it to buy a gasoline
schooner two years old. If the attorney
general and auditor think we can, per-
haps it may be well to make the pur-
chase
Boyd insists that the wash houses
have been properly cleaned up and
made sanitary. Some improvements
were made after a recent report of the
board of health condemning the place,
but yesterday the board adopted a re-
port by Dr. Moore, declaring the place
still insanitary, and the report was
sent to Boyd. Boyd says that the
boards investigation was made on a
wash day, when the place is seen at its
worst, and that if the doctors would
make their Investigations after the
clean up which follows such a days
work they would find things all right.
Il can find many private places that
are worse than the wash houses" said
Boyd, but the board seems to be al
ways nOsing about where the depart
ment of pubuc works is. l went to the
laundry this morning, and found things
in good condition. 1t would be better
If we had a cement floor but we haven [
the money for that now.
The Board of Health might get after
the boneyard in Iwilei if the members
want to condemn insanitary places, or
they might look after some private
backyards that are far worse than the
government laundry. There have been
no cases of sickness traced to these
wash houses, in spite of the bacilli sup
posed to be discoverable there. What
| cases of sickness of an epidemic kind
we have had have been among people
VINO do not patrOniZe the laundry"

WANT TO REDUCE WAGES.
Tin Plate Company Asks Men to Help
 Them Secure Big Contract.

Cincinnati, July fS.-An Enquirer special from Anderson, Ind, says;
 Tin plate workers tonight confirmed a report that they have been asked by the American Tin-plate Company to allow their wages to be reduced 25 per cent so that the company may accept an or der from the Standard oil Company for 1,50O.0O0 boxes of American tin plate. The same question is before all the tin-plate workers throughout the country, and es- pecially those under the scale of the Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers. They will decide on the proposition by vote the coming week.
 The American Tin Plate Company repre- sents that the Standard Oil Company has been buying tin from Wales, and will renew It's contract with Welsh man. utacturers unless the American Tin Plate Company can meet them.
