MANY TOURISTS
TO VISIT HAWAII
PRESIDENT WIGHT OF WILDER
COMPANY RETURNS TODAY
WITH FAVORABLE REPORTS.

President c. L. Wight of the Wilder
5. s. Company returned this morning
from San Francisco on the S. S. Ala
media from a flying trip to the Coast.
He went on n pleasure trip but while
he was i'm San Francisco took the time
to visit the Union Iron Works and as
certain the progress of the work on the
steamer Likelke and also to acquaint
himself with the prospects for tourist
travel to Hawaii.
The prospects for tourist travel to
Hawaii this season are very bright -
said Mr.. Wight this morning. II talk
ed with e. NJ Boyd of the Tourist
Committee and also with L. f. Cock
roft the passenger agent of the Ocean
ic S. S. Company. Both of them eX-
pressed great satisfaction over the
prospects and said thai the indications
We're that there would be a large num-
Der of visitors to Hawaii very soon
Mr.. Cockroft said that the advertising
that is being done could not fail but
produce satisfactory results.
Il talked with Mr.. Boyd over the
prospects. He said that he had placed
the contract for the folders with the II.
s Crocker Company of San Francisco
and 10000 of them would be ready for
distribution within a very short time.
Mr.. Boyd expected to remain a couple
of weeks longer to attend to other de-
tails of his work in that city.
1.-THE railroad people have taken hold
of this proposition of divertlng tourist
/ travel to Hawaii The railroad people
said that there had been many inquir-
les regarding Hawaii. but they had no
literature on the subject to distribute,
so they were. in consequence, hand-
capped. With the new advertising
material that is to be provided, this
difficulty will be overcome The ind-
cations were that the tourists would
come from the eastern states.
Work is progressively very rapidly
on the new steame>' Likeika for our
company. The keel has already been
laid and the frame work was about to
be put in place when I left San Fran.
cisco. Indications are that the vessel
will be COMPLETED before the contracted
time. next March. She will probably
receive the best finish of any boat in
! the islands. All of the cabins will be
deck cabins. She will have a speed of
about 10 knots and viii be put on the
Nolokai run. She rs about the same
hull as the steamer Kaiulani, while the
passenger accommodation equals the
Lehua."

answer contains a denial that the
capsizing and loss of the house boat
We're due to any negligence on the
part of Cotton Bros. and alleges as
follows:
THAT the turning over of said house
boat was not due in any manner to
the carelessness or negligence of said
/ libellees but was las libellees are in
| formed and believe and so charge the
| fact to be, due to the fact that the
said boat was not properly built into
the scOw but when originally con-
structed was simply tackled to said
scow with ten-penny nails which be-
came gradually loosened from the
rocking of the scow."

NAVAL OFFICER
LOSES HIS HOUSE
LEARY'S ACT IN CONFISCATING
PROPERTY IN GUAM DECLARED
LEGAL.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-According
to the Attorney General the Constitu-
ton did not follow |he flag in the case
of the establishment of the United
States Government in the Island of
Guam.
When the American naval colony
was originally established in Guam
with Admiral Chen Captain) Leary as
the supreme power, one of his assist
ants, Lieutenant w. Z. Stafford obtain
ed one of the very good dwelling
houses on the island by purchase from
the owner and improved it to such an
extent that it became practically the
most desirable residence there.
Governor Leary finally concluded
that Lieutenant Saffords house was
needed by the Government as an
executive mansion, and opened nego-
tiations for it's p,Irchase. The price
asked, however, the Governor thought
excessive, and when ne and Lieutenant
Stafford could not agree Governor
Leary finally condemned the premises
for Government purposes and took pos
! session.
Lieutenant Stafford made a vigorous
protest against this summary proceed
4 ing, and appealed to Washington for
! ItuTtSS, lIlldIlCldl anu OlllCi W lSG' lIN CT
since then the case has been under
consideration, and finally became so
complicated that it was referred to
the Attorney General for an opinion
on the legal principles involved.
The Attorney General has now sus-
tanned the action of Governor Laary
as being legal under the peculiar cir
cumstances of the case. In his opin-
ion the Attorney General holds that
the Constitution has not been extend
ed to Guam by Congressional enact
ment, and that the sole power of gov
eminent of the island has been neces-
sarily and properly committed by the
President to the Naval Governor, and
that in appropriating the property OF
Stafford he was entirely within his au.
thority in the exercise of the righ
of eminent domain, and that the
United States Government has a cleal
and valid title to the property in dis
pute. He holds that the Treasury car
lawfully allow the owner the price

RAPID PROGRESS MADE.
Preliminaries to the Construction Of
Big Union Depot

No time is being lost by any Of those who
have in charge the construction OF the
union station at the intersection Of Massa-
chusetts and Delaware avenues northeast.
and the building of the approaches thereto.
The business Of clearing away the obstrdc-
lions on the site of the station, which has
been going slowly ever since the site
was finally decided upon will take on re-
newed activity In the course Of the next
week. and it Is expected that within three
months the site will be very nearly cleared
The houses that occupy the site at pres
ent are being disposed of as quickly as pos
sible. The materials contained in eighty
four of them were sold yesterday. and
there remain three hundred more to be
sold. The houses disposed of yesterday
brought prices varying from s. to $780, ac-
cording to the material of which they were
constructed and the amount used in the
construction. Some of the houses We're
mere shacks and others were pretentious
buildings of brick and stone.
The persons purchasing these houses were
required to tear them down and clear away
the material they desired to save within
thirty days and to give bond in the sum of
$500 that they would comply with this reg
ulation. The bonds were practically all
filed today and the business of tearing
down some of the houses was begun this
morning.
OF the three hundred buildings that re-
main to be disposed Of lots of from Sc to
100 will be sold from time to time during
the next month or two on favorable days.
A large number of persons have evinced an
interest in these sales, the attendance at
that held yesterday being much greater
than was expected.
