COMES TO FLOAT
HAWAIIAN LOAN
Territorial Secretary It.
r. Carter Arrives on
SOnOma.

George R. Carter. secretary CT the Ter
ritory of Hawaii, arrived here yesteday
from Honolulu on the liner Sonoma- He
is on his way to Washington to secure
the approval of President Roosevelt to
a 81 900 600 loan for needed improvements
in the Territory. After securing the
chief executives permission Carter will
proceed to New York, where he hopes to
float the bonds with little difficulty.
This loan of $1,O00,OO0 was provided for
in the Territorial organic act. The money
is needed for the construction of school
buildings, the building of roads for the
opening of new country, for an insane
asylum. the Improvement of the harbor
of Honolulu and other public improve
ments Everything necessary to the is
suance of the bonds has been arranged
except the approval of President Roose-
welt, which is required by the organic
act. Carter expect6 no difficulty in car
rying out his mission so far as the chief
executive is concerned, and thinks there
should be little delay in floating the
bonds. Hawaii, he says, has a giltedged
reputation in the matter Of financial re-
sponsibilities.
The bonds will be redeemable in from
five to fifteen years and will bear per
cent interest.
Conditions in Honolulu, according to
Carter, are steadily improving and the
expenditure of this s1,OOO.OO0 is absolutely
necessary to enable the Territory TO keep
up with the march of progress and handle
intelligentIy the problems that are al
ready looming up big and complex before
the administrators of the affairs Of
greater Hawaii
On the Sonoma was also z. r. Stack
able. Collector of Customs for the district
of Hawaii. He comes to San Francisco
TO meet Assistant Secretary of the United
States Treasury R. B. Armstrong, who Is
due here tomorrow, and Collector of the
Port Stratton, with whom he will confer
regarding irregularities and methods of
the Hawaiian customs service. 1t is un-
derstood that one of the matters that will
receive their attention will be the order,
made some time ago and recently rescind-
ed. whereby the baggage of passengers on
through steamers was examined at Hon
olulu. The order resulted in many COM
plaints and 1t is supposed that it was
rescinded for this reason. There is to
he meeting of collectors of customs Of
the various ports of the United States
in New York in October and it is pos
sibIe that Assistant Secretary Armstrong
will order Collector Stackable there to
represent Hawaii.

COLGATE BAKER DIES
WHILE TAKING A BATH
Sudden Ending by Heart Disease of
Former Well-Known News
naner Man

Colgate Baker, at one time a prominent
journalist. died suddenly yesterday morn
ing in his lodgings at 1149 Larkin street.
1t had been his custom to rise early and
take a cold sponge bath while standing
at the sink. His nude body was found
by the housekeeper. the forehead resting
the sink, against which he had fallen.
The body was wet and the sponge, which
was lying near the right hand was satu-
rated with water.
Mr.. Baker had been complaining for
quite a while of not feeling well and it is
supposed that death was caused by an
attack of heart disease. aggravated by
the shock of the cold water.
In early days Mr.. Baker was a promi-
nent newspaper man, but in his later
years he was engaged in other occupa-
tions. Some years ago he married Miss
Freda Gallick, an actress. The dead man
had relatives in Milwaukee.s He was s.
years old
