Modjeska to play farce.

The agitation started by the Adver-
tiser on the strength of the interview
with John Kidwell published some
weeks ago is beginning to bear fruit
Mr.. Kidwen stated that the jim Hill
boats were on the point of deciding
whether or not to stop at Honolulu on
their way home from the Orient to the
Sound. He said that a former purser
Of the Maru line now on those boats
was doing all the talking that he
could in favor Of the new plan pro-
posed and that representations from
Honolulu would help.
Papers containing the Kidwen inter-
view and showing the plans in progress
for the deepening of the harbor under
the direction of the Secretary of War
as set forth by Lieut. S1attery. locally
in charge. in an interview, were sent
to Tacoma and evidently the work is
bearing fruit.
Some days ago a cablegram was re-
ceived stating that the matter was now
under consideration at the head offices
of the company in st. Paul, enough
interest having been awakened TO
transfer the scene of the discussion
from the Sound TO the home offices.
The Alameda brought the following as
sociated press despatch, which throws
still more light on the subject:
ST. PAUL Cfinn.) December 21.-
Vice-President James of the Great
Northern Steamship Company, who re-
turned today from Japan and China,
made the announcement that he is con-
sidering a schedule for the coming year
whereby the Great Northern steam

Seattle to Japanese and Chinese ports.
FRAUDULENT NATURALIZATION.

be popular on the Pacific coast at least
for some time. Sentences such as the
one mentioned in the Chronicle OF the
21st in the following article are likely
TO have a very salutary effect.
Sentence under the first conviction
this year in the United States District
Court of a defendant charged with
naturalization fraud was pronounced
yesterday morning by United States
District Judge de Haven upon John
Francis Green. second officer of the
steamship Siberia. convicted of having
used a fraudulent naturalization GER
to obtain an American sea-go-
ing license and to become register
ed as a voter in this city.
Green is a native of Ireland and
came here in 1900. Six days after ar
rival he purchased a forged naturaliza-
ton certificate from William Cunning
ham for $40 and obtained a masters
license upon presentation Of the forged
paper 10 the United States local in
spectors. The sentence imposed was
