rived in port at 10:4O o'clock last night
from the Colonies after very rough
passage. The vessel was late reaching
Auckland from Sydney and did not

to heavy seas all the way to Honolulu,
experiencing extremely bad weather
on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday last

Monday but did no damage.
The vessel brought a good sized car
go for Honolulu, including 713 bags
ammonia, 20 of maise, 81 packages o.
whisky, 300 carcasseS of mutton and
several packages of curios

the passengers many of whom had
never before been here The vessel
took in 800 tons of coal, 5000 bIlncnes
of bananas, several thousand sacks Of
sugar, and was scheduled to leave for
San Francisco at o'clock this nioIn-

NO LAVATOR|ES IN
MANY BUILDINGS.
State Labor Commissioner
Stafford Warns Owners to
Install Plumbing at Once
HEALTH ENDANGERED

w Y. Stafford. State Labor Commits
sioner, has notified the owners OF sew
eral hundred newly constructed build
lngs that they have violated the law
by not installing a sufficient number
OF lavatories. The statute provides
that In buildings used for factory,
WORKSHOP or mercantile purposes, sep
arate lavatories shall be provided Tor
each sex therein employed, and they
6hall be of sufficient number to in
sure the comfort of the employees. both
male and female. Stafford says that
the owners of buildings have iagrantly
violated this section Of the law and
have thereby endangered the health of
many working men and girls.
Commissioners Stafford has investi-
gated nearly all of the temporary
buildings to see whether they had been
Constructed in accordance with this
provision of the law. He was surprised
to find that many of them had only
one iayatory and that this was used
by both sexes. Many buildings had
no plumbing whatsoever. Owners of
such structures were notified to comply
with the law.
These notices seemed to lave no eff
feet and yesterday Commissioner Staf-
ford sent his uItimatum. He declared
in his circular that he had been lenient
enough and had considered the con-
ditions in San Francisco, but that some
owners had shown such disregard
for the health of their employees, es-
pecially those of the female sex, that
he had determined to prosecute them
unless the law was complied with at
once. The penalty of the law is a
maximum of $500 fine, imprisonment
for ninety days or BOTH

STATE WHARF HAS A
MAR POW ESCAPE.

AS the result of the carelessness of
painters in the employ of the State
Board of Harbor Commissioners How
ard street wharf No. yesterday after
noon narrowly escaped destruction by
fire. AS it was, a large section of the
roof was partly destroyed, partly by
the flames and to a greater extent by
the axes of the firemen.
A strong wind was blowing and a
wide area of the shingled roof was
ablaze within a few minutes after the
fire was discovered. 1t was fifteen
minutes before either city or state fire
departments reached the scene, but the
efforts of half a dozen men employed
on the wharf, who climbed to the roof
and fought the fire with hands and
axes, held the flames in check until
the city fire department arrived and
got stream of water on the roof
A few minutes after the city Are
fghters began their battle the State
with a stream from her battery knock
ed down the ladder by which the IRE
laddies had reached the roof. After
wetting down the surrounding bulk
head, the Markham withdrew.
During the afternoon some State
painters had been working on the roof
preparing the skylight frames for a
coat of paint. They burned off the old
paint with gasoline torches. In burn
ing off the paint they must have set
fire to the woodwork. They left with
out noticing the smouldering fire,
which in the brisk afternoon breeze
was soon famed to flames.

TEACHERS MAY SUE
SCHOOL BOARD.
Committee Asks That Test
Case Be Instituted to De-
ternline the Use Of Funds
SALARY CUT OPPOSED

Permission was asked of the Board
of Education by a committee from the
teachers, who are objecting to the re-
duction made in their salaries. to insti-
tute test suit to determine If the spend :
ing of certain school moneys for other
things than salaries is legal, and the
board agreed TO the suit If all the
sible suit may be begun even if the
board makes objection.
There was a meeting of $50 dissatis-
fed teachers September /, and at that
time committee was appointed to call
on the Board of Education and ask that
their salaries be not withheld for the
eight weeks vacation seasons during
was this committee that met with the
board yesterday and asked that a
friendly suit be begun
When the teachers held their indig-
nation meeting 1t was rumored around
the city that the board would have the
rebellious employees discharged on ac-
count of their ACTIONS. 1t was claimed
by the chairman of the committee at
the meeting yesterday that teachers
have become intimidated as a result
Of that rumor and are afraid to insist
on what they believe to be their dues.
The original committee consisted of
DR., Margaret Mahoney, Madison Bah
u.
Smullen, r.. L. Mann and e. J. Hamil-
ton. Hamilton and Miss Smullen de-
clined to serve. and Moore was out of
the city. The other three members
were present.
DR.. Mahoney introduced the subject
to the board by telling of the meeting g
Of the teachers and stating that they
wanted to have their pay as in the
past. She said the reduction amounted
4 n W Of al So1o orfa f,at
the increased cost of living in the city
made 1T impossible for many of the
teachers thus to pay their bills, as
they had also to provide themselves
with many things lost in the earth
quake
members of the board explained that it
was not possible to do as the teachers
asked, as there is not sufficient money
to meet all the demands of the depart
ment in the present case.
r. L. Mann is an attorney. and
teaches in the evening schools
only. He remarked that in his opin-
ion the board is not complying with
the State laws. He also said that the
board could not make a reduction in
salary any other time than between
May l and May 81.
If by fulfilling this provision, he said,
1t is found that there is not money
enough to build and furnish houses,
the board could resort to the rights
given 1t in the city charter providing
that in case of extreme emergency the
Board Of Education may incur extraor-
dinary expenditures in excess of the
annual limit.
The amount of money expended for
salaries last year is s1,160.000. and ae-
cording to the Interpretation given the
State law, the board must reserve that
amount for salaries this year. But the
members stated that they have only
S1,204,000 available this year.

came here during the gold excitement
and was abandoned by her crew. She
was beached on this lot and used as a
hotel. Years after. when the founda-
tions for building were being laid.

News Of the Various Mining
Camps of Nevada.

Manager Mark B. Kerr OF the Montana
Tonopah mine has returned from the
coast and reports that every thing IS IN
splendid shape in connection with the
plans for the company's mills. He ex-
poets that the contract for the ma
chinery will be let in a few days The
grading is going rapidly ahead and the
station in the shaft from which drifts
will be run under the ore dumped on
the surface and the ore dropped back
into the mine is aIlaost finished. De-
velopment of the mine Is going rap
idly ahead on lines laid down in con-
nection with the mill The result has
been to increase the shipments from
the mine by 80 per cent over the aver
age Kerr says that this is due TO the
enlarging OF the workings for
greater output and not to an attempt
by the company to increase its income.
