orders to arrive on schedule time.
which accounted for the Alameda get
ting so far ahead of her. The
weather experienced was fair, with the
exception of the two latter days, when
very heavy swell caused the vessel
to roll considerably. The only passen-
gers for Honolulu were w. F. Brown
ing, F. w. Fox and Mrs. F. w. Fox.
Besides a long list of cabin passengers

Must Arrest Deserters.

The Treasury Department has issued
a circular asking that local authorities
cooperate to effect the return of de-
serters to their vessels. The Secretary
calls attention to a section of the Re
vised Statutes which makes it incum-
bent on State and county officers to
arrest deserving sailors from ships of
foreign nations and detain them until
their vessel is ready to go to sea- The
circular is the result of complaints
made by the German and English am
bassadors. at the State Department re-
garding the desertion of English and
German sailors at Pacific ports. The
ambassadors say that the men are in
duced by shipping masters to desert
and ship on other vessels.

Reduced Freight Rates.

An announcement has been made by
the Oceanic Steamship Company to the
effect that it has reduced steamer
freight rates between San Francisco
and Honolulu, $3.50 a ton. The old rate
was $500 a ton. The announcement
which is officially made by the local
agents, is dated January 10. The
Oceanic Company's cut is evidently
made to meet the net rate of $3.50 a
ton, recently announced, between San
Francisco and this port, by the Ameri-
can-Hawaiian Steamship Company.

Wharf Room Wanted.

The Wilder and Inter-Island Steam
Navigation Companies have made
acquisition on the government for more
wharf room. They would like to have
for their especial use, Nuuanu street
wharf, Sorenson's wharf. the old Fish
market wharf, and a new wharf to be
constructed by the government along
Queen street from the old Fishmarket
wharf to Nuuanu stream. A confer
ence on the subject was held on Satur-
day between Governor Dole, Superin-
tendent of Public Works Boyd and
representatives of the two steamship
companies. The two former are will
ing to have the change made, but the
trouble is that there is no money in
the treasury with which to build a new
wharf. The two companies are not
willing to build a wharf themselves as
assurance is lacking that the Legisla-
ture would reimburse them for their
outlay. Should arrangements be made
whereby the companies remove to the
other end Of the harbor, their present
wharves would be used by the deep
water vessels now using the uptown
wharveS.

CORPORATIONS ARE 1T WAR
Swift & Co Fighting Big Rail-
 road Company,

They Have Placed Boycott on the
 Santa Fe Road-The Trouble. Arose
 Over the Hauling of Live Stock Into
 the St Joseph Yards,
 St Joseph, Mo, Oct IA bitter strug- gle is on between two powerful cor porations, the Atchison, Topeka & San ia Fe Railway Co and Swift S5 Go.
 About five weeks ago Swift & Go placed boycott on the Santa Fe. Dur ing September that railroad hauled in to St Joseph l6 per cent of the live stock received here. As a result of the boycott the road was allowed to haul out but six per cent of the packing house products.
 A road usually is allowed to haul out 3 share of the packing house products in proportion to the percentage of live stock brought in by it.
 The Santa Fe determined to retail ate. On September IS 1t sent out no tices that the rate on live stock into St Joseph would be increased on October to three cents per hundred over the rate to Kansas City. This would mean complete loss to St Joseph all live stock in the territory tributary to the Santa Fe. Three cents per hundred would amount to ab60t ST per car.
 Swift & Co at once opened negotia- tions with the Santa Fe The result was that on September 26 notices were sent out by the railway that the in- creased rate would not go into effect until October 10.
 The negotiations are still on.

ABOUT VOTING NO LICENSE
Fair PIay' Thinks it Would Re

! H
 Detriment to City to Vote No.
 To the Editor of the Democrat:
 Slr:-Just a word in relation to ru- mors Tn some of the local papers that the mo license" people intend maJx- ing stlff contest next Monday. Thev have as much right to their Opinions as anybody else, but the fact thai they have no consideration for other peoples is where the rub comes. The fact that the city derives some S65 GOO from liquor licenses carries no weight, with them. The fact that Waterbury is not hamlet or a camp meeting. but the home of thousands of sturdy toilers to whom healthful stimu-l lant is not luxury but necessity. does not appeal to their sympathies. They do not concern themselves with such littel things as taxation or the ad- ditional expenditure sooner or later Co be forced on the city by sewage dis posal, additional school accommodate lions or the like. Do they imagine that if the yoters declared for no liz
 ense, people wfno feel that they need ail invigorant once in while would not get it? Do they think that in such an event there would not be need for dS uiNCu pOllcC plOtCCllOil5 Iuc Dtdu~ tiful condition of affairs in MasSa- chusetts is sufficient answer. Perhaps they desire to force Waterbury work men to dodge into speak -easys'' when they desire something to refresh their wearied bodies. It may be true there are some abuses, but like state of affairs prevails in other lines and nobody can be perfect. But the way to remedy it is not to wipe out q very important part of the city's reve- nue just because 8 number of people some of whom have no financial in- terest in Waterbury, and some of whom are practically new corners, choose to say so. 1t is bad enough to deprive the people of coal and wood but for heavens sake leave them something to warm up on

GOLF AT BROOKLINH
The Fine Weather Brought Ou
 Players and Spectators

I y
 l Brookline, Mass, Oct 1.-The finest oolfing weather of the week was youchsafed to Miss GeneVieVe Hecker N of the Apawamis club or Eye, N. F. and Miss Louisa A. Wells of the. BrooK- 1 Iina Country club when they came out | this morning at the Country club TOT tha deciding match of the Women,s na- tional championship. The air was clear and crisp and what little wind there was blowing came from the northeast, a favorable quarter for near Iy all the holes. A crowd of nearly 1000 or 5000 collected about the first tee and waited for some time for the players to put in an appearance. Mean time a number of players were started out i'll q mixed foursonae, which had been arranged for those who had been defeated during the week and also the gentlemen members of clubs around Boston.
 The course was in excellent shape, far better than at any time during the week, as the fair green, under the in huence of a two days sun, was well dried out. The principal contestants were at the first tee shortly after 10 a. m. and President Robertson gave the word to start, acting as referee.
 Before the contest began it was gem orally believed that Miss Hecker would win, provided she kept up her short game, although it was conceded that Miss Wells was a strong player.
 It took some time to c1ear the course before the players could be started. Miss Wells, who had the honor, pulled her drive badly, while Miss Hecker dropped 40 yards away against fair 1y stiff breeze. Miss Wells was well out on her second and her third went within 50 yards of the green. Miss Hecker's was, fine one and with q mid iron she pitched herI ball onto the green. Miss Wells fourth oyerran the green, but struck a rake and luckily bounded back. Miss Hecker, being away, played the like, laying her ball dead. Miss Wells took two more for the hole. Miss Hecker won the hole to 6.
 Miss Hecker won the championship with up and 3 to play.

CAN AFFORD TO STRIKE,
onlii EVery Factory in the Countr,
 Is Embarrassed.

4 prominent member of the labor unions said to-day that the coal miners could afford to remain on strike until the coal situation heoins to embarass the factories all over 7the country Every union in this citv and all over the country is contrib11f- ing to the maintenance of the coal miners for this, according to this la DOT leader is to be fight to finish. 1t will mean the life or death of trades unlonism. As long then as the fac tories remain in operation it's en- ployes will be able to contribute to the strike fund, so that the whole sit uation is thus laid open to public view and that if the conference in Washing ton fails it will be impossible to guess when the strike will end. Every un- married man on strike is paid $1 or S2 each wek. This is not enough to properly support him, but the claim is set up that as he never was paid enough to live properly he can afford to do with little less under the pres ent circumstances. He is given all that he know can be given him and he is content to live half starved and fight for the principle of his union.

St Louis, Oct 4--At the Bohemian Catholic congress which has just com pleted a two days session, resolutions were adopted expressing loyalty to the constitution of this, their adopted coun- try. The right to send their children to parochial schools was demanded on the ground that the parent and not the state has the first right of authority over the child and that only when the parent neglects to perform his duties has the state right to govern the child. The public school system of the United States is not objected to, says the resolutions, but the congress believed that religion is the basis of morals and for that reason the right to send their children to paroch1aI schools was contended for
