The damage done by the recent
storms does not appear to l'ave been
as extensive as was first feared The
damage to the Nuuahu dam viii
amount to about $1,5OO. 1t does not
consist Of any destruction to property
but is caused principally by the large
amount of debris being carried into
the dam as the result of the rush of
waters into the reservoir.
Road Supervisor Johnson Is unable
to determine the extent of the damage
done to the Makikl storm drain fiume
1t will not, he thinks, be as great as
was first reported. The big leak has
been stopped. 1t is now a question as
to the extent of the damage done the
bottom of the flume. This condition
can not be determined for several days.
There was also some minor damage
about the city but nothing of an espe-
cially serious character. Johnson had
two shifts of men working last night.

KAHULUI, December 12.-It seems
that nearly every week more auto
mobiles are arriving on Maui and it
will not be long until they cease to be
novelty. This past week three new
machines arrived, two of which are
already out on the road. Mr.. c. C.

having been transshipped at Honolulu
from one of the through steamers. Mr..
White is brother of the inventor of

him to take the wheel. BY the Ne

machine. and under the expert guild

now gliding about the country without
the least trouble or friction. BY the
Nebraskan Dr. McConkey of Paia also
received a car. it being a "StanIey
steamer" runabout and is, like Mr..
Baldwin's very handsome little ma
chine. The country horse here will
soon have to accustom himself to the
sight of automobiles or else get off the
island.

Lee Chin, one of the leading Chinese

ing the landing of Chinese. Lee has
not been taken into custody, but he is
concerned in the alleged unlawful land

According to information secured by

with him his wife. He returned recent
ly with a very pretty, dainty piece of
Chinaware whom he claimed was his
1S-year-old daughter. Her name was
given as Yee Yaw, and later Yee Law
Subsequently the authorities were told
that the woman was his wife. Whether
she was wife number 2 or wife number
something else is not clear. In any
event the woman has been taken into
custody on the grounds of being unlaw-
fully in the United States. She is be-
ing held for deportation unless Lee can
prove the charges to be incorrect. She
was arrested this afternoon. Lee is

Colonel William S. Patten, who has
for some time been the head of the
head of the Quartermaster's Depart
ment in the Philippine Islands, trans
ferred last night to the steamer Sono-
ma, just before the liner sailed, in fact
the Oceanic boat was held a few min
utes as a result of messages sent from
the army transport.
With Colonel Patten went Captain
Amos NJ. Kimball, who had been called
to Manila as a witness in the military
scandal concerning the management of
the Quartermaster's shops at Manila.
The sudden determination of both of
these men who have been to some ex-
tent prominent in military circles in
the Philippine Islands to leave the
transport Sherman and take a COM
merclal boat, caused quite a ripple of
surprise among the army people whose
lives are bounded by tbs actions Of the
War Department,
Captain Babeock, the Army Quarter
| master of the sherman, saidl why,
Colonel Patten has very sick wife in
| the United States, and was in a hurry
to get home. The reason for Captain
KimbalIs hurried trip Is a matter con.
cerning which have no knowledge"
But outside of the official talk there
is an undercurrent of discussion as &c
the need OF haste on the part of these
military gentlemen.
It is an open secret that Colonel Pat
ten has before him as a spur the chat
of the QuarteTmaster General of tn
United States Army to be made vaca;",

TO SHUT OFF
JAPANESE
MIGRATION
WASHINGTON THAT ROOT HAS CARRIED NEGoTIA
A TREATY JAPANESE LABOR
AMERICA AMERICAN LABORERs FROM JAPAN
sATD TO BE ULTIMATE OUTCOME OF PRESENT SITUATION

WASHINGTON, December 5.-The
Presidents solution of the vexatious
japanese school controversy is the ne
gotiation f a new treaty with the Mi
kdo, which will readjust the relations
between the two count. fes and place
them on a more satisfactory footing.
This was learned today on the best of
authority and explains why the Japan
ese Government has dropped its case
against the California school authori-
ties. Preliminary negotiations for the
new treaty have already been begun
between Secretary Root and Embassa-
dor Aoki. The chief feature of the
agreement will be a provision for the
exclusion of Japanese laborers of GER
tain classes from the United States.
This feature is to be reciprocal and
under the treaty American laborers
will be forbidden to enter Japan. The
President and Secretary of State Root
believe that this is the best possible
way Of settling the immediate trouble
and avoiding more serious friction in
the future. The latter possibility is one
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1906-12-14

which the President is especially anx-
ious to avoid. 1t is apparent that the
intense anti-Japanese feeling on the
Pacific Coast will grow stronger and
that unless something is done to avert
a clash a rupture will come sooner or
later.
The fact that Japan is willing to
enter into an agreement for the exclu-
sion of her subjects frim this country
may create surprise in some quarters.
MAY EXCLUDE LABORERS.
Japan wants to keep her people at
home for the development of native in
dustries and the Korean and Manchu-
rian interests. She is especially op-
posed to the expatriation of Japanesl
subjects. With these things in view
and the knowledge that it will be made
to appear that Japan seeks an exclu-
sios law, the position of that nation
will be better understood. Although
the treaty Of 1894 with Japan gives to
this Government the authority to ex-
clude Japanese laborers the Govern
ment has no intention of taking ad-
vantage of this power.

1t is plainly known in the Philippine
Islands that so far as one side of ad-
ministrative influence goes Colonel Pat
ten has a swing Major General
Wood believes in Patten. And General
Wood makes no secrets of his beliefs.
Major Wood, for a long time Army
Quartermaster in San Francisco, also
has an eye out for the seat of the
Quartermaster General Of the Army.
1t is believed that Major Duvol has
certain senatorial influences that may
supersede any recommendation that
the military commander of the United
states forces in the Philippine Islands
may be able to control
Colonel Stevens is also a factor in
the race. There are not a few men in
the Army who think that the Texan
may win out despite politics
The FASTENED departure Of Colonel
Patten has stirred up interest in the

The coincidental departure of Cap

Navy Journal which Captain Kimball
brands as untruthful or course, Cap
tain Kimhall was, at no time, arralgn-
ed for misappllcation Of funds before

nal stated. Captain Kimball was sent
