CHINESE GOT ENOUGH.
Shanghai Merchants Would Willingly
Queli Agitation.

Consul General Rodgers, at Shang.
hal. cables the state department that
the Chinese chamber Of commerce at
that place deprecates the continuance
Of the boycott in China against Amer
lean goods. which, the merchants say.
is attributable in large part to the stu
dents. Business Is being seriously af.
fected. This dispatch Is regarded here
as very significant. The boycott was
first instituted at Shanghai. and, SIN
gularly enough. by the chamber OF
commerce which is now SO anxious to
terminate 1t. According to reports to
the state department the agitation ex.
tended as far south as the Straits Set
Elements. where the important busi-
ness is largely controlled by the Chi
nese merchants. Consul General Will
bur stated that the Shanghai boycott
as proclaimed by the chamber of CON-
merce has been adopted by the cham.
ber at Singapore.
From Mr.. Rodgers report It is in
ferred that the merchants who started
the boycott have found they suffered
heavy losses In trade and are desirous
of removing 1t. The department has
been also informed that Minister
Rockhill has secured the aid Of the
Chinese government in stopping the
anti-American movement.

$5OO,OOO fire
At HOBOKEN

New York, Aug. 8.-Inside Of three
quarters of an hour fire swept away
the Delaware, Lackawanna d Western
Railroad company's terminal in Hobo
ken, seized two ferry boats and prac.
tically ruined them. and for half an
hour threatened the destruction Of the
entire water front in the vicinity, in
cluding the Hamburg A merican and
North German Lloyd steamship docks,
at which several big ships were lying.
The property damaged is estimated at
between $400, 900 and $1,000
So far as known no lives were lost.
For over an hour huge tongues Of flame
leaped from the wooden structures ON
the Lackawsnna docks, lighting the
New Jersey and New York water
fronts. For a time 1t threatened a loss
larger than that Of the big dock fire
several years ago when the North Ger.
man Lloyd piers were destroyed with
great loss Of life.
The flames started. from an unknown
cause on the old wooden ferry boat
Hopatcong, which had been tied up in
the open sea, between the Hamburg
American docks and the christopher
street ferry slips. Twenty minutes
after the alarm 1t looked ~ IL the en-.
tire lower part Of Hoboken. including
the Hamburg piers would be destroyed.
The two burning ferry boats were
towed out into the stream by tugs.
The Hopatcong sank later.
After few hours work the fire was
under control, the big steamship piers
had been saved, and rough estimate
placed the damage at $500, 900.
The new immigration station, which
was built Of brick and stone, and oc.
cupied only two weeks ago, cost t70,.
600 to build. and was supposed to be
fireproof. 1t was soon mass Of fire,
the interior burning rapidly. Only q
few persons werein the building at the
time Of the outbreak and they were
hurried out.

from all over this state and Oregon
say that it will be impossible to
have berries from other districts on
the market before the 10Th or goth
of May. This will give US from

Good Game at PrOsser Sunday.

Sunday the Pasco ball team
met the Prosser aggregation Oh the
.latter's home grounds and put them
to the bad by score OF 4 to1.
We sprung a new deal on them
and it took some of the wind out OF
their sails. Heretofore when a
team visited town for the purpose
of playing a game they were tac-
companied by a few enthusiasts
and were at the mercy of the root
ers Of the home team, and it is a
we'll known fact that no matter
how hospitable the home team and
the rooters may be before and after
the game, all friendship ceases
when the umpire says "Play ball. :"
Suld y when time was called
Pasco had about as many support
ers on the ground as the home fel-
lows; and they were all good husky
rooters, at that. Kennewick has
decided that one good team in the
Twin Cities is enough, and so we
got our band together and headed
adelegation of about seventy FIVE
fans to goIto Prosser and do what
we could to bring victory to the
visiting team. Pasco also sent a
larger delegation than usually fol-
Columbia courier. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1902-1905, 1905-04-21

lows a ball team, and when we all
poured out of the train to the STIR
ring strains of one of Sousa's popu-
lar marches by the band, the. ma
tives were SO badly surprised that
they did not recover till the score
keeper told them what had hap
pened.
And the way it happened! Well,
we don't want to go into details.
The Prosser boys are good fellows
and treated us right, and have
promised to come down here and
play game. Details might not
look good to them in cold type.
The score tells a sad enough tale.
Both teams played good ball and
everybody got the worth of their
money except a few who thought
a little bet on Prosser would be
easy money.
The Pasco boys have asked lis to
extend to the band boys and the
citizens of Kennewick their heart
lest thanks for the support given
them, and have promised to play
part of their home games on a Ken
uewick diamond.

The Palmyra Island crab is lost
Viking Weisbarth, battered by storms
and buffetted by winds, though he was,
did not forget his obligations to science
on his recent trip with the little
schooner Lavinia to that lonely isle.
Along with his cargo Of cocoanuts from
which he hoped to recoup himself for
expenses borne and perils encountered.
he brought "a specimen Of the crab
which climbs the tail cocoanuts trees
and helps himself to the fruit, intend
ing it as a votive Offering to science
on the altar of the Bishop Museum
When he arrived i'm this port he
made haste to tell the museum author
ties. The matter became public and
the guardian Of the port, who is ever
on the alert to keep out noxious ami
mails stepped in and said the crab could
not land alive. There is a dispute as
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1905-01-09

to whether it was Or. Monsarrat, the
veterinarian, who issued the fiat, or
whether it was the entomologist of the
Board Of Agriculture and Foresty for
bade the bans, so to speak. Some
claim it must have been the veterina-
rian because crab is not a bug. 9th
ers claim it must have been the entu-
mologist because a crab is not a horse.
At any rate it vefs announced that the
crab would have TO. be -chloroformed
before it could be brosght ashore. DR..
Brigham went to the swharf ready to
chloroform the creature, when, 10, and
behold, It could not be found.
1t had escaped into the hold Of the
vessel, and is supposed to be having
a few square meals on the cocoanuts
there. When Morgan sells the cocoa
nuts tomorrow, it is hoped the crab
will be found. If it is, it will be chlo-
reformed.
