Record
Shipments
From Maui
TWENTY THREE THOUSAND TONS
OF SUGAR WORTH A MILLION
AND A HALF SHIPPED.

KAHULUI, Maui, July 6.-For the
first time this season both Maui ports,
hahului and Kaanapali, are entirely
clear of ships and shipping this week,
and in consequence present a deserted
appearance. The steamer Nevadan got
away for San Francisco about II D. m.
on Friday night last, and the ship Fort
George was towed out of Kahului har-
Dor about 1880 a. m. Saturday by the
steamer Claudine, and got under way
for Delaware Breakwater. The ship
Manga Reva, at Kaanapali, cleared for
Delaware Breakwater on Saturday,
and sailed on Monday, and the schoon-
er F. NJ. Slade also cleared on Satur-
day for San Francisco, but got away
day earlier, on Sunday.
The month of June just passed was a
record breaking one for Maui as far
as shipping goes, for more sugar was
shipped away during the month than
has ever before been shipped in one
month, and the tonnage was the la rg-
est ever leaving the island in one
month. Four large steamers, four
large ships and one schooner were the
clearances for the month, and they car
ried away cargoes as follows:

ations at Kahului, returned from the
coast per Claudine last Saturday
morning and was successful in his eff
forts 10 secure the services of the
dredger Pacific to assist i'm the dredg-

be gotten up from Honolulu in the near
future and then with the Reclamation
at work too, the breakwater will grow
with rapidity. 1t is now away out
on the reef and shows up large. A dom
key engine pile driver is at work out
ahead of the fill on piles putting in
piles for a retaining wall for the coral
rock dug out of the harbor, to hold it
until rocks can be taken out on a
track and the same properly ballasted.
A track is now laid out on the fill as
far as it has gone, and lumber and ma
terial is transported out to the end by
means of cars. Already there is no.
ticed a difference in the harbor the
breakwater shutting off the current
that was wont to run by the end of
the present wharf.

The ship Tillie E. Starbuck is the
next sailing vessel expected at Kahu-
lui, and she will be the last one for the
season. The S. S California for New
York, expected next week, the S. s..
Nebraskan for San Francisco also ex-
pected next week, and the next trip Of
the S. S. Nevadan will clean up the
sugar crop of Maui for the season, with
the possible exception of Kaanapali
where another vessel may be expected
Sailing vessels at Kahului have had
a hard time securing crews of late, and
they have all gone to sea rather hard
pressed. The bark Willscott went out
with about half Japanese, the other
half white sailors. The ship Hawaiian
Isles had about three-fourths Japan
ese. The ship Fort George got away
with a decidedly motley crew of which
IL were Porto Ricans, Philippines, L
Cuban, 1 Irishman, 1 Swede, and
American, besides the officers, cook
and steward. The ship Manga Reva
also had a crew of Porto Ricans, al
though she had a few more white sail
ors than the Fort George. The worst
feature of the crew of the Fort George
was that six or more Of the Porto Ri
cans had never been on a ship before
and knew nothing about it.

THREE WRITS
OF MANOAMUS
DE BOLT POSTPONES THEM ALL
TO SETTLE A TECHNICAL
POINT.

Today was mandamus day for Judge
De Bolt, the attorney generals depart
ment and c. w. Ashford. Three writs
of mandamus were before the court for
hearing, being the cases of the Kauai
Wine and Liquor Company against
Treasurer Campbell, the Thompson Set
tlement Association against Land Com
missioner Pratt and j. f. Colburn a.
gainst Pratt.
The Thompson case came first, and
Deputy Attorney General Milverton
presented an argument based on tech
nical grounds, supporting a motion to
quash which raised points on which
the court wanted briefs Milverton
contended in short, that the writ should
itself contain a statement Of the
grounds on which it was based, and
that it had not been shown mat a judge
of this circuit had jurisdiction. Ash
ford criticized the attorney generals
department for being so technical in Gp-
posing citizens seeking 10 get their
rights, and claimed that the writs were
sufficient
Prosser appeared in the Kauai case.
The writ asked for directs Campbell to
issue liquor license and Prosser claim
ed that this couldn't be done until it
was shown that bond had been ap-
proved. Ashford asked to amend the
petition for a writ by inserting an allie
cation that the treasurer had approved
the bond.
The cases all went over pending the
fling of briefs.

before United States Commissioner
Mailing this morning, Ford is big,
strong fireman and proved to be quite
bright witness. 1t was indicated b.
his testimony that the real cause Of his
being arrested was a fight in which he
was engaged aboard the vessel but he
declared repeatedly that he was at
peace in his bunk when arrested and
that he didn't know why he was ar
rested. In fact, under cross examina-
tion by McClanahan, he insisted that
he couldn't even imagine why
Ford denied that he was very drunk,
but said he had had some drinks. He
was used to drinking. McClanahan
asked how many drinks he could take
without becoming drunk. mo one
can't hexackly tell that" replied the
witness cautiously. 81 could We drunk

LIABILITY
INCREASED
CONGRESS PASSES A DRASTIC
LAW APPLICABLE IN ALL THE
TERRITORIES.

Local members of the bench have re-
ceived from Washington news of an
important act just approved at Wash
ington, affecting damage suits in the
Territories and the District of Column
bia. The act greatly adds to the liza
bilities of employers for injuries re-
ceived by employees in accidents and is
said to be a law which would have been
applicable, had it passed in time, to
cases recently decided here.
The following sections show. the scope
of the new law, which is said to have
got through by Labor Unions:
"Be it enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives of the United
States of America in Congress assem-

not received his commission as yet. He
is the recipient of many congratulations
from his friends about town.

first light which viii also be forward
ed to Washington for approval.
The Captain will not go to Midway as
was his intention at first to survey the
harbor there, for the government has
ordered Captain Carter of the naval
Station to go there and do the work.
Captain Carter expects to leave for
Midway on next Saturday. He will
survey the harbor and will make bor-
ings so that the government will know
how much of an appropriation will be
necessary to put the harbor in first
class shape.
Captain Sattery has not yet receiv-
ed word from Washington as to how
the money recently appropriated for
coast defense is to be spent. He ex-
poets to hear shortly. As he under
stands It the sum Of 5000 600 has been
appropriated for these islands and for
the Philippines, he does not know
how much Of an allotment has been
made for Hawaii
"The harbor is now in frst-class
shape, we expect to finish there with
in the next ten days putting the final
work on the lighthouse point" said the
Captain this morning. I'VE have
something Ike $4,000 on hand that
was saved from not dredging around
the marine railway. OF this $4,000 will,
be spent in dredging off the point and
the remainder Of $1,000 be kept on hand
as maintenance sum. The harbor Is
now in good shape and as soon as we
get the lights up we can rest for a
while"
