CAPTAIN METCALF
Due THIS MORNING

F. w. Klebahn, who has been repre-
senting H. Hackfeld & Co. on board the
Manchuria, and Purser Blossom arrived
in town last night TO make prepara-
tions to meet Captain Metealf this
morning.
Mr.. Klebahn reports that there has
been no change in the situation at the
Manchuria, the vessel lying with prac-
tically no motion. There has been no
change there, he says, during the past
two or three days.
Everything that may be required by
Captain MetcaIf in the way of avail
able power and apparatus has been
prepared and got ready for him and all
the information in the hands of the
agents and officers of the liner has
been put into such shape as to be
speedilv grasped by the expert.
The report circulated yesterday that
the cableship Restorer is acting IN
violation of Federal law in assisting
the Manchuria seems to be unjustIfied.
Federal officers seen last night agree
in saving that they know of no law
which could prevent British ship
from going to the assistance Of vessel
in distress in American waters or OF
being chartered to render assistance
in the saIving of such vessel.
If there should be such law IN
existence, the application of it in this
case would be hardship on the Amer

GHOST IDOL FOUND
NEkR HALE|WA hotel

Rev w. D. Westervelt discovered an
ancient Hawaiian idol in a taro pond
near the Halefwa hotel last week and
Museum to be placed on exhibition.
The idol is made from a piece of ohia
wood about eight feet long. There Is a
carved head and shoulders and a hole
in the back just below the shoulders
where offerings were placed by the
worshipers. The idol is in a fine state
of preservation. 1t is believed to be
one of the ghost idols.
Manager Bidgood of the Haleiwa
hotel wishes he had located the idol
first as he would have made it one Of
the odd attractions of his hostelry
grounds.

FINED FOR PROFANITY.

c. Pringle paid a fine of SO with
$3.50 for court costs yesterday, having
been found guilty of using language
too strong for the ears Of a conductor
on the Rapid Transit. From the evi-
dence given in the case it appears that
Pringle changed his mind a couple of
times about the transfer he wanted.
insisting that he was entitled to as
many transfer tickets as he desired.
Hence the dispute with the conductor
and the language INDUCED in Pringle
was once employed by the company
and in a position TO know the rules
The ease attracted some little atten-
ton as It was thought that the defen-
CANT would give some sensational tes-
timony in rebuttal. This he failed to
do. contenting himself with denying
that he had said the naughty words
charged to him.

WIRELESS MAST ON MOLOKAI

Recently an inquiry came here from

important business interests in Hawaii,
as well as in many other parts of the
world as to whether a giant wireless
mast was not in course of erection on
the island of Molokai, presumably to
be used as the Hawaiian Island sta

ton to receive messages from Califor-

been that no such mast is known to-
be in course of erection. There is a.
wireless mast on Molokai, but 1t is a
comparatively small one. and is used

lean owners of the Manchuria 1t is
agreed among all the shipping men that
the Restorer, no matter what flag the
law compels her to fly, is the ideal craft
for the work she IS now employed in.
Her apparatus and fittings are such as
TO allow her to do the work and do it
better than any other vessel or
any other two vessels available. In
fact it is the opinion Of many that
the Restorer could have pulled the
Manchuria off the reef when she first
grounded, had it been deemed advisa-
BILE to have that done before the ques-
tion of insurance liability had been de-
cided.
No steps have been taken by III.
Hackfeld & Co. to ascertain the law
on the question of using the Restorer
in their work, and from expressions
used by an employe of that company
last night there will be no action taken
to get information in the matter, re-
lying on the known. facts of the ext
geney of the case to justify what is
being done.
Captain Metcalf will be taken over
to the Manchuria this morning and, it
is expected, will commence his work
Immediately after his arrival on the
scene.
