CONUQUEROR OF
MOROS HERE
PERsHING is THROUGH
PASSENGER ON SIBERIA-HE
sUBDUED SAVAGE TRIBES.

Without doubt the most interesting
parsonage who has visited Honolulu in
u long time, is a through passenger on
the S. S. Siberia. He is Captain j.
j. Pershing, U. S. A. and he is going
home for a short leave from the work
og subduing the savage Moro tribes of
Mindanao, Philippine Islands.
Captain Pershing although compara-
lively a young man has performed re-
markable work in the Philippines. He
has succeeded i'm destroying the power
of the Moros, as no other man was
able to do and it was through his re-
markably efficient work in this respect
that the island is in a comparative
state of security. He marched from
one side of the island to the other, scat
tering the Moro tribes before him.
Recent press dispatches from Manila
told of the conservation of Captain
Pershing by the Moros as a dato He
has since been recognized by them as
chieftain.
As an indication of the high esteem
in which he is held by the War De-
partment and the President, Captain
Pershing was promoted to be a mem
ber of the General Staff of the Army.
This is regarded as one of the
highest tributes that could be paid to
the ability Of an American officer. Cap
tain Pershing is understood to be going
to Washington in connection with his
promotion.

MORE KICKS
ON SIBERIA
PASSENGERS INDIGNANT OVER
NEW ORDER TO SEARCH HAND
BAGGAGE.

The Siberia surprised almost every
one last night by arriving off the port
shortly after o'clock. She came up
evidently too late to be passed by the
health officers and was forced to lie
outside over night. The vessel sailed
from Yokohama July IA. She did not
break any records but came along un-
der fair speed. She sighted only the
Hong Kong Maru during the trip.
The Siberia has 1854 tons of freight
for this port. In this cargo are 7.OO9
tubs of sol. and 5000 sacks of rice and
beans. She brought quite a number OF
passengers for Honolulu.
The vessel did not come into the har-
Dor and dock at the Bishop wharf until
10 o'clock this morning The delay was
due to the enforcement of the custom
regulation regarding the searching OF
baggage. There were complaints from
the passengers and the regulation was
denouced on all sides. The searching
of the baggage kept the vessel outside
several hours and delayed her coming
into port. In fact not all of the work
had been completed when she came
alongside, the baggage of the European
steerage passengers still being un-
touched.
Among the through passengers on
the Siberia for San Francisco is D. c.
Worcester and family. He is a MEM

NEW NAVAL
COMMANDERS DUE
WILL SUCCEED CAPTAIN RODMAN
IN COMMAND OF LOCAL NAVAL.
STATION.

Captain Rodman, the acting COM
mandant of the Naval Station, received
mail advices yesterday to the effect
that successor to him as commandant
or the station, but not commander of
the u. 5. s. 1roquois, had been named
The new commandant of the local sta
ton Is Lieutenant Commander A. p
Niblack, u. S. n. Commander Niblack
is expected to arrive here August IA.
His command will be only temporary
however, as he is simply to be on shore
duty until the arrival of Rear Admiral
Terry, the new commandant. Admiral
Terry is expected to reach Honolulu
September or October ana assume
command.
with the arrival of Admiral Terry,
the Hawaiian Islands will be given
greater prominence than they now pos
sess, They will probably be organized
INTO Laval district and will be design
ated as strategic point. This an
nouncement means that there will prob
ably be stationed a battalion of mar
ines of about 1000 i'm number who will
be ready to be sent to any station in
the world. In addition to these marines
it is very probable that several war
ships will be regularly stationed at
Pearl Harbor, especially if the Panama
Canal is finished
1t is thought at the local Naval Sta
zion that the reason Admiral Terry is
not to come out at once and take COM
mand, is the fact that he is being kept
in Washington to study and acquaint
himself with the details of the plans of
the Navy Department regarding the
Pearl Harbor station.
Commander Niblack has been i'll for

Norfolk butchers who are alleged to
have conspired to defraud the Govern

the Norfolk navy yard may be called
before Federal grand jury again to an

the butchers was quashed in Norfoli;
several months ago. but at that time
it was rumored the case might be called

district of Columbia. as the contract
was let in Washington.
