The Pacific Mail Company's liner
China, which left Honolulu Friday for
this port, is bringing from the Orient a
shipment OF raw BLK valued at about
$780, 900. There are l42 tons Of the

the transportation companies offer the
consideration they show to this prod

The New York importers Of raw silk
pay cash for their purchases in the
Orient. This cash usually is borrowed,
as shiDment Of silk represents more
money than most firms carry in the
cash drawer. One bale Of raw silk is
worth about 500. A bale weighs only
$50 pounds and much Of the raw silk
IS bought by the ton. Upon money ad-

CITY OF PARA BRINGING
A TALE OF TROUBLE.


Chief Officer C. Coghlan OF the
Pacific Mail liner City Of Para IS said
10 be making the homeward voyage
from the isthmus as q prisoner, under
arrest by the skipper's orders and con-
fined closely to his own room. The
third officer is said to have been pro-
NOTED TO Coghlan's place. The Para,
Captain Brown in command. is due
here on Tuesday and Pacific Mail Of
fcials OF high and low degree are
awaiting with eager interest for light
on what seems 10 have been a sad and
complicated domestic disturbance.
Coghlan is a son OF Rear Admiral
Joseph 3. Coghlan Of the navy, the
gallant officer whose after-dinner jim
gle at the expense Of the German En-
peror gave him worldwide promi-
nence. but earned for the sailor verse
maker q reprfmand from the navy
department
Coghlan Jr. is considered one Of the
srnartest officers in the Pacific Mail
Company's service. He knows his
work. has always done II well and
neither with superiors nor subordin-
ates have his relations. hitherto, been
other than all the regulations OF the
service called for.
All that is known here is that he
was under arrest when the liner left
Panama and that the third officer was
performing the chief officers duties.
Captain Brown. the City OF Para's
commander, is said TO be the hardest
man in the service for subordinates to
get along with. and the fact that
Brown Is the Para's commander is
sufficient in the opinion Of many to
account for Coghlan's predicament-
Brown has a record for discharging
his chief officer at the earliest possible
moment and when the chief officers
conduct gives the skipper no opening

Whatever the reason for CoghIan's
