KOREA Will Be OPEN

II. Hackfeld and Company the agents
of the Pacific Mail S. S. Company, have
received advices from r. 2. Schwerin.
the general manager of the company
directing them to throw the new liner
Korea open to the inspection of the
public on her arrival at this port. The
vessel probably left San Francisco
August 80 and will therefore, reach Ho-
nolulu some time next Friday, or by
Saturday morning at the latest. All
of the steamships in the harbor to-
gether with establishments having
whistles will be requested to give the
new vessel a salute as she enters the
harbor. Captain Seabury the COM
mander of the Korea probably has a
siren aboard the vessel and those who
know him, are content that he can be
relied upon not to keep silent during
such a reception. Arrangements will
be made to have the band at the Pacific
Mail wharf during the vessels stay in
port an the general public will be per-
mitted to go aboard and inspect the
new liner.

WATER FRONT QUIET
NO BUSINESS is BEING DONE
TODAY.
Men Demanded Double Pay To Work
Worked-Sailing Postponed Today.

The water front is dead today, so far
as business is concerned. Practically
every wharf is deserted and none Of
the vessels are working cargo.
The men at the Oceanic wharf de-
manded double pay to work today on
the Alameda. This was refused so tile
crowd declined to work. Both the In
ter-Island and Wilder wharves are de-
serted and no attempt whatever is be-
ing made to load any Of the vessels OF
those lines. Tomorrow is steamer day
and the cargOes will have to be loaded
under high pressure in order to get the
vessels away on time.
The gasoline schooner Eclipse dis
charged her cargo of fire wood this
morning, but nothing further was done
aboard this vessel during the day.
Nearly all of the sailing vessels are
decorat ted with many flags in honor OF
the day.
There will be no movement of ves-
sells out of the harbor today. All of the
sailings of the regular Monday inter-
island boats have been postponed until
tomorrow and the departure of the
Claudine for Hilo and way ports has
also been postponed from tomorrow at
noon to : p. m. tomorrow.

TODAY,S BASEBALL.

The Customs and Kamehamehas will
play the first game of baseball at the
Labor Day matches this afternoon on
the Oahu College campus followed by
the II. a. C's against the Males. The
teams will be practically the same as
on Saturday with possibly the eXcep-
tion of Cunha who may not be able to
play on account of his split finger.
Louis will take his place behind the
bat if he decides not to play. Tne
Males will play their hardest to re-
trieve Saturdays loss to the Kams. The
latter should win easily from the Gus
toms. The Males and Kams seem
likely to tie for percentages and will
have to play off later on. The season
closes on Saturday.

BAKERSFIELD, August 10
General Manager Porter of the
Associated Oil Company is in
New York, and since his arrival
in that center various rumors
have been floating about as to
the object of his trip. Yesterday
there came from him an order
for the superintendent to reduce
production in the company's
well. When it is considered that
this involves the production Of
fifty oil companies that form
the associated company the like
lihood of great falling off in
the product is apparent,
The association is capitalized
at $40,000,000 and controls the
best territory in this region.
1t regulates almost the entire
production in these parts.

SHIP WITHOUT A FLAG.
Curious Predicament Of Former Nor
wegian Steamship Hero.

From the Baltimore American of Today.
Forbidden to carry cargo. to officer or
man the ship, or use her own engines to
propel her, because she Ia a steamship
without flag or a port to call her own. the
former Norwegian tramp steamer Hero will
leave port this morning in tow Of the wreck
Ing tug Rescue for New York. The vessel
has been rebuilt in Baltimore from stem to
stern and keel to truck, at cost Of $4,000,
and Is as good as new, having capacity Of
$500 tons of cargo and a speed Of ten knots,
yet the navigation laws Of the United
States say that she cannot be registered as
an American ship, and as she lost her Nor
wegian registry she is ship without
country.
As she has no official existence under any
flag, she cannot move from her dock with
out violating the laws OF navigation, hence
she has to be towed to New York by the
Rescue without even the dignity Of being a
barge. Her situation Is most unique.
The Hero was q vessel 300 feet long, 40
feet wioe and 29h feet depth Of hold, regis
teering Ito tons net, that hailed from Ber-
gen. Norway. She came to Baltimore in
1901 as Norwegian steamer. and loaded a
full cargo OF coal for Colon, Central Amer
lea. On the voyage out she was caught IN
a norther and blown ashore OF Colon. The
owners abandoned her to the insurance
companies Who in turn, abandoned her to
the Merritt & Chapman Wrecking Com
pany. During these transactions her Nor
wegian papers were carried Off and she lost
her nationality.
The wrecking company succeeded In float
ing the vessel and towing her to New York.
Later she was brought to Baltimore to be
rebuilt by the Baltimore Drydock Com
pany at q cost Of $4,000.

SEVERAL RADICAL CHANGES.
Provision Of Mr.. Reeves Bill Relating
to Patent Law.

~ aIc0I LAW.
The patent office officials are much In
terested In the legislation proposed In the
bill offered In the House by Mr.. Reeves Of
Illinois. which proposes several radical
changes in the existing laws. The Issuance
Of patents and preservation of patent rights
to the inventors thereof has been hereto
fore one of the closest functions Of the
government The right has been restricted
and 1t has been necessary for all manner Of
forms to be gone through with before the
succession Of the patent could be obtained
on the death Of the original patentee.' The
bill introduced in the House by Mr.. Reeves
proposes to do away with all the red tape
that has surrounded the office and make the
way Of the inventor easier, while guarding
his interests just closely.
OF the three or four radical changes pro-
posed one of the most popular Is that which
patent who resides in foreign country.
Heretofore 1t was necessary for the patentee
to appear before some notary public to make
oath. but the inventor will be permitted,
under the proposed law. to make oath before
any magistrate, judge, notary public.
Another change relates to the application Of
the administrator or executor of the estate
of an inventor securing letters patent ON
the invention Of their testator The present
law makes 1t necessary for certain legal
papers to be taken out In the United States
by some one other than the administrator
of a foreign inventors estate, before the
patent can be issued. The papers must be
taken out by citizen Of the United States.
This often occasions great inconvenience In
obtaining patents and often makes danger
Gus delays. The new law proposes to make
it possible for the administrator to take
out the necessary papers and thus do away
with the necessity of third party to the
business. This Is regarded as an important
change in the law and one that Is much
needed A third change would make it pos
sible for any person to file in the patent
office caveat setting forth the design of
patent and of its distinguishing character
istics and praying for protection for the
same. Under the present law only a citizen
Of the United States can file such caveat.
The new law, If enacted, will extend the
provisions to any person.

Giant Paris Store.
Architectural Record.

From the Architectural Record.
Two powerful searchlights can be seen
from all quarters Of Paris every night One
is that Of the Eiffel tower and the other,
which is almost as powerful, Is that Of
Dufayel's store. one OF the most interesting
centers Of French commerce. both on ac-
count Of its magnificent decoration and be-
cause Of the system Of business practiced
there.
1t Is a credit system. For a small sum
generally the fifth Of the whole price-any-
body can purchase whatever household
goods he may require and settle the bal
ance by weekly installments varying from
30 cents to s.. But 1t Is not only to these
facilities Of payment that the Dufayel es-
tablishment owes Its rapid success. but
more especially because the customers are
fully aware that they will not have to pay
more In purchase on credit than IL they
paid ready money. This system Of pay
ment by installments Is appreciated, there
fore, by both rich and poor. and more than
100000 customers have placed orders with
the firm. Three thousand clerks are en-
pIoyed In booking and sending or these or
ders. which amount to $4,000, coo In the
course of the year. In order to attract and
hesitated to expend large sumo. and has built
on a large piece of land. measuring 5000
square yards. an enormous store, 13O feet
high. divided into floors. separated into
courts. and decorated with q profusion OF
statues and paintings by great modern
artists.
