OUR SYSTEM
The BEST
Tenney Peck Compares
Rapid Transit with
Others.


aThe system of the Honolulu Rapid
Transit street railway occupies unique
and most favorable position in compar-
ison with the electric railways of the
largest cities of the United States and
Canada"
L. Tenney Peck. President of the
Honolulu Rapid Transit & Land Com
pany, who returned last week on the
Manchuria from an extended visit of
several months on the mainland, gives
the above estimate of his company in
comparison with others he inspected.
Il went over the lines in San Fran
cisco, Seattle, Winnipeg Toronto, Mia
CARA Falls, Albany, Glers Falls, New
York City, Camden, Philadelphia, Wash
.ington, in West Virginia, St. Louis, Los
Angeles. Santa Barbara" continued Mr..
Peck, 'and our system is in many re-
spects far ahead of most of them. For
general overhead, track, motor, rolling
stock, and repair shop equipment. we are
certainly in possession of a very fine
system.
I'VE can also point with pride to the
manner in which Our cars are run, the
civility of the carmen and their cleanly
appearance. Our men handle their cars
much closer to the rules than those on
many mainland systems.

FIRST REFINED
SUGAR EXPORTED

BY the steamer yesterday there was
shipped to san Francisco the first re-
fined sugar ever manufactured in the
Hawaiian Islands. 1t is the product of
the refining plant that has been
almost completely installed in the sug-
ar mill of the Honolulu Plantation
Company within sight of this city.
Ten bags of samples of different
grades constituted the shipment. The
grades were Standard GranuIated,
Confectioners' Granulated. Fruit Gran

is installed the Honolulu refinery win

plant is complete, the apparatus has
worked to perfection from the first
trial run.
Manager J. a. Low showed an Ad-
vertbSer reporter a sample of the sug-
ar. 1t has the appearance of being
the finest quality. Mr.. Low is not the
least afraid that the sugar viii fail

CORRESPONDENT VILLlERS
TALKS ABOUT THE CAMPAIGN

After spending several months before
Port Arthur with General Baron Nogi's
Army. Mr.. Frederic Villiers, the famous
artist-war correspondent and the Far
East representative of the Illustrated
London News. has returned to Yoko-
hama, where he will remain for a few
days before setting out on his journey
for London, which he hopes to reach
by Christmas.
interviewed as to his experiences,
Mr.. Villiers had very interesting story
to relate.
THE PRESS RESTRICTIONS.
Speaking of the regulations imposed
upon the war correspondents, he said,
from a military point of view they were
indeed very sound There was not one
irksome condition to which he could
honestly object, all were tactically ne
cessary Among the regulations was
one that they were not to mention the
numbers of regiments or the callbre of
the guns. Having subscribed to these
conditions thew were required to notify
headquarters if they wished to visit dit
ferent parts OF the lines and their re-
quests were invariably granted. They
were free to 90 to any part with any of
the divisions and to visit any of the
brigades or regiments Also they were
allowed to carry cameras and photo
graph anything except the Japanese
guns, especially guns in position. Even
this restriction was eventually removed.
Some of the correspondents. said Mr.
Villiers. objected at first because they
were not permitted to send the name
of any regiment that, for instance, per-
formed some heroic act, but they after
wards saw that the restriction was an
necessary military Precaution,
as it might have been the means OF in
forming the Russians of the reinforce
ment of some particular division. We
had no difficulty, and no distractions
were offered to our moving about the

THE CONDITION OF DALNY.
But to begin Mr. Villiers's interesting

story from the beginning. After leaving
Japan the correspondents were taken to
Dalny and ouartered in The Hotel Dalny
there This building had been previous
ly looted by the Manchurian bandits
who had about 50 hours in the town
before the japanese occupied it, when,
of course. order was Immediately re-
stored. The briPands had ripped up all
the furniture and destroyed lot of
goods The Russians in leaving the
town hastily set fire to the more I'M
portant buildings, and there is no doubt
the bandits set fire to some of the pri-
vate dwellings,. But the town was III
very good condition in the circum-
stances. Some of the fine buildings were
intact, as were also many private dwell
ling houses.
"Of course" continued Mr.. Villiers,
.'the Russians destroyed all the bridges
These were nagnihcently constructed
of masonry. In fact, l do not think
any line could be better built than the
railway from Dalny to Port Arthur, all
the culverts and bridges being splendid
1y constructed of stonework." k"
TOURING THE BATTLEFIELDS.
1T was August 4th when we arrived
at Dalny, and for some days we made!
that town the centre, and visited the
battlehelds of the neighborhood. Wei
saw the sites of the battles of Nanshan
and Kinchow and OF the battles in the
direction OF Port Arthur We left Dali
ny on the 18th and marched to Bando-
There I saw for the first time veryI
excellent tent which was in Use by the
japanese there and which was invented
by Lieutenant-C Colonel Ushiro, connan- |
dant of Bando. 1t was very light, spa
cious, airy and in many ways most
serviceable tent.
From that place we went to see a
very strong position which the japanese /
had rushed and captured from the Rus
slams. Afterwards we started for Eel
JOSH (4ingchengtz) where we remain
ed for few days. Receiving a message
from headquarters, which were then at
we set out thence and were re-
