NITR|TE CARGOES
HAVE A HOODOO
TWO VESSELS GOT INTO TROUBLE
THIS YEAR BOUND FOR HOMO
LULU.

Nitric cargoes for Honolulu have
been experiencing an unusual run of
bad luck. A private cablegram just
received states that owing to some
mishap, the loading of the British ship
Iquiqui at Leith for Honolulu, had to
be suspended. The nature of the
trouble was not learned Details of
the affair have been cabled for The
nitrites might have taken fire. The
mishap whatever 1t is, will probably
delay the vessel sailing for this port.
Already two other vessels bound with
nitrites for Honolulu, have had to dis
continue their voyages and put into
some port in distress. The German
bark Solide had to put into Iquiqul
short of water about ten days ago,
while some months ago the ship Allan
tic bound from Leith for Honolulu,
was dismasted and had to put into
Valparaiso in distress. She sailed af-
ter delay of a couple of months.
The ship Wallacetown had a similar
experience last year. She had to put
into Callao dismasted and was delayed
a long time before she could resume
her voyage to this port.

FIRE-PROOF CARS
Postal Department Sees Necessity of
Different Mail Coaches.

The wreck of the limited express
from New Orleans near Lynchburg
has revived suggestions of improve
ment in the equipment of railroads for
the carrying of the mail which are like
ly to receive the careful attention of
the Postoffice Department and later of
Congress. In this case the two mail
cars were burned, the Pullman sleep
ing cars being detached and drawn
away from the burning portion of the
train before they were injured.
TIE subject of building fireproof
cars of steel has been considered from
time to time, but no marked progress
has yet been made IN putting such a
plan into effect. Fifteen years ago a
Boston inventor built a passenger car
of steel, and it was used on the rail-
roads of the country as an experiment.
The cars built of steel are about 40
per cent heavier than those construct
ed of wool, and for that reason chiefly
such construction was never pursued
In the case of mail cars, however,
railway engineers recognize special
and urgent reasons for either steel
construction or some other method by
which these cars may be rendered fire.
proof. The passenger coaches and
sleeping are generally some dis
lance from the locomotive. In the case
of maIl-cars they are nearly always
ahead of the passenger cars and so
near the locomotive that they are fire.
quently burned when there is a wreck.
There have been many cases in which
the postal employees in these cars have
been burned to death before they could
make their escape. Ii frequently hap
pens that the mail Is destroyed and in
that way irreparable injury is done.
Many valuable papers that could not
be replaced by any amount of expense
or labor In that way have been burned.
to the great injury of their owners.
These special dangers confronting
the mail cars have made of great i'm
portance the proposals for their build
ing of fireproof MATERIAL This matter
has not yet been taken up in any spe.
cific way by the Railway Mail Clerks
association, but 1t is believed to be a
subject that will concern them in the
future. The life of a railway mail car
is said to be twelve years, so that lit
tie more than that time would be re-
quired to replace them by fireproof
construction, should such a course be
decided upon. The mail cars are the
property of the railroads over which
they are operated, but the government
has always taken the Initiative in sug-
gesting the manner OF the building of
these cars. They are now made extra
strong, and the safety of the mail
clerks is correspondingly increased. If
they were made fireproot the result
would not only be saving of life, but
of vast quantities of mail matter that
are now annually consumed by the
fiames.-Washingto Star.

TOOK AN AK
TO HIS WIFE
ALEC CRAIG GOT DRUNK AND AT
Tackled WIFE WITH DANGER
Gus WEAPON.

When Alec Craig gets out of Jail next
month, he will probably take a pile
driver to do up those who gain his re-
sentiment. At least this is about the
implement which would most naturally
follow the ratio that has recently
marked his assaults on members of his
family.
Some weeks ago Craig was in the
police court, charged with assault and
battery on his SON. The defendant
had been intoxicated at the time and
taking a shoe, had beaten his child in
very cruel manner. In passing sen
tence on the defendant, Judge Lindsay
remarked that it was unfortunate that
the Territory did not have a whipping
post so that brutes like Craig might be
sent there for punishment. The de-
PENDANT was given 10 days in jail.
Craig came out of Jail September 10
He kept sober for time but yesterday
he got drunk again and attacked his
wife. Evidently he had worn his shoe
out on the boy and probably though
that an adult needed some severer form
of Establishments so he took an AK t
his wife. He knocked her in the heaC
with the ak. He did not, strange {
say, kill her for she was able to appea
in court and testify against him thi
morning. Judge Lindsay sentenced
Craig to one month in Jail for assault
and battery.

LAUNCHES To
CHANGE POWER
YOUNG GOES TO COAST TO MAKE
ARRANGEMENTS FOR INSTALL
ING OIL BURNING APPARATUS.

Herbert Young of Young Brothers,
departed last night on the S. S. Siberia
for brief business trip TO San Fran
cisco. He gpes for a number of OBJ
jects, the primary one however being
for the purpose Of effecting arrange
ments to install oil burning apparatu s
in the various small boats in Honolulu
now using gasoline or distillate. 1t is
claimed that the price of these mate
rails has been forced so high that the
owners of small powered vessels have
found their profits gradually eaten up
They have decided that some thing
must be done to curtail this expenses
and as oil is much cheaper, Young is
going to take steps to have his fleet
of gasoline users changed. 1t is not
improbable that other crafts about the
1narbor will follow his example. His
idea is to secure the agency of such a
concern and be prepared to install the
new system OF fuel after his return to
Honolulu.
The high powered engine which has
been ordered for the schooner ''The
Brothers" win also receive some alter
atoms by Young as it will be necessary
to make changes to convert her into an
oil burner.
Young is also going to see the Urea
sury officials regarding some further
contracts with them in these islands,
his trip being taken it is thought in
connection with the coming of the
new revenue cutter for these islands.
He will be absent a month or more.
On his return he is TO have charge of
the aquarium at Kapiolani Park.

FITZ TO FIGHT GARDNER.

NEW YORK, September 27.-"Bob"
Fitzsimmons and George Gardner have
been matched to fighN in San. Francisco
during the last week of November for
the light heavyweight championship
of the world Ever since Gardner won
the championship, at 16S pounds, he
has been firing challenges at Fitz, the
lanky middle-weight and ex-heavy
weight champion.
James c. Kennedy, representing the
Yosemite Athletic Club of San Fran
cisco, and WILDER Pierce of Boston,
representing Gardner, called on Fitz-
simmons at his home at Bath Beach
today and arranged the fight.
The conditions call for twenty
rounds, the men to weigh in at 16S
pounds at 8 o'clock on the afternoon
OF the fight. The fighters are to re-
ceive 60 per cent of the gross gate re-
ceipts, and this sum will be divided,
rs per cent to the winner and % per
cent to the loser.

Gardner is now in Texas with the
atrical enterprise but will leave the
show at once, go to San Francisco and
begin training. Fitzsimmons will box
Con Coughlin in Philadelphia this
week, and probably will proceed to
San Francisco in about ten days. This
contest should be a lively one, as both
men are clever, strong and game.

WATER RESOURCES.

Among the States in which hydro
logic work has recently been begun by
the United States Geological Survey is
Minnesota. The water resources OF
this State. an especially the artesian
and other underground supplies, have
been under investigation for some time
by Prof c. w. Hall, of the University
of Minnesota, Minneapolis, whose SER
vices have been procured by the gov
eminent for the same line of work.
Professor Hall is now engaged in pre-
pairing a report which, when COM
pleted, will be published by the Geo
logical Survey and distributed free of
cost to those interested in the water
resources of Minnesota.
The report will describe the water
resources of the State, including lakes,
sreams, springs, shallow and deep
wells, artesian wells, etc. Besides
describing the wells. the report will
consider the chemical and sanitary
properties of the water, it's present and
prospective uses, the amount and
stability of the flow, and the future
prospects, both in developed and in
untred areas. The report will also be
accompanied by a brief description of
the geology of the State so far as it
affects artesian supplies, and will be
illustrated by a number of maps and
figures.
