PA7ROL WAGON
IN TROUBLE
Continued from Page one.)


of. the boarders who suffered from the
somewhat unpopular distemper.
The patrol wagon arrived and in it
the two unfortunates were taken from
prison to the Kalihi detention station
where they now are awaiting the fiat
of the surgeons as to whether their
cases merit deportation to Molokai or
not.
OF course the necessity of their i'm
mediate transference from the prison Is
apparent but the calling of the patrol
wagon for the removal of the prisoners
is receiving a great deal of criticism
and the High Sheriff will have some
explanations to make.
incidentally there is a neat question
arising over the whole patrol wagon
question as the Supervisors of Oahu
have been notified by the Attorney
Generals Department that the Terri
tory will no longer bear half the ex-
pense of the maintenance of the wa
gon and horses.
OF course at first blush it does Sc m
that the Territory should have no share
in the burden of expense involved by
patrol wagon kept for Honolulu pur-
poses but the difficulty is that Homo
lulu is the seat of the Territorial jail,
which is also used by the Federal au-
thorities.
IF the Territory does not want to
pay its share for the use Of the patrol
wagon, 1t needn't" remarked one of
the Supervisors this morning but if
it doesn't pay it cannot use the wagon.
The territory collects revenue from
the federal government for the trans
pc. tation and keep of federal prisoners
and these are transported in a wagon
owned by the county of Oahu half of
the maintenance bling paid by the ter
ritory There are also territorial pri-
soners and these are brought up in
the same wagon. The Territory will
simply have to get a wagon of its own.
The whole business arises out Of the
petty jealousies of some Territorial Of
ticials who are deprived of some of
their privileges when county govern
ment was established Personally l
think that it is about time that the
county did take over the full control Of
of the patrol wagon If the Territorial
officials are going to use 1t for carry
ing lepers about"
Thus the situation stands and at
present the only solution seems to lie
in United States Marshal Henry grid
ing up his loins and donning a revolver
belt when he has to march prisoners
down from jail, unless he makes Frank
Winter do it, while Hi Henry himself,
in all the majesty of blue coast and
gold bullion lace, will have to do many
weary tramp himself.

POST OFFICE MUST
Be SEPARATE FROM
THE OTHER OFFICES
OFFICE REQUIREMENTS DIFFERENT
OTHER BRANCHES THE GOVERNMENT SERVICE
AND NEEDED A DIFFERENT STYLE BUILDING AND VERY
OFTEN DIFFERENT LOCATION

Postmaster Pratt has received now
the report of the First Assistant Post
master General and in it are two mat
tiers of particular interest to Honolulu.
The first of these is in connection with
the advertising of unclaimed letters,
mention of which was made in these
columns some days ago. The practice
has been discontinued, or rather Uncle
Sam has quit paying for the advertise
ments, while generously allowing news
papers to print the list for nothing, If
they wish
The reference to this subject runs
thus
AT the end of the year the depart
ment discontinued the practice of au-
thorizing payments for the publication
i'm newspapers of lists of unclaimed
letters and notices of the time of clos
ing of foreign mails. The small APP
preparation for this purpose permitted
the authorization of such advertise
ments in comparatively few news
papers. 1t was impracticable to dis
tribute the advertising Systematically
or equitably. Furthermore, the num-
Der Of unclaimed letters delivered as
Il result OI lIlS advertising was lOlulh
on investigation to be too small to
warrant the expense incurred. In most
cities and towns newspapers publish
without charge lists of unclaimed let
| tiers, and similarly in the leading sea-
port cities notices of the time of clos
ing foreign mails are printed as TENS
of news
Another matter of Importance to
Honolulu is that regarding post offices
and their installation i'm Federal build
ings. 1t has been the idea for some
time that when a new Federal building
| is erected here it will have quarters for
| the post office in it, but from the fol
/ lowing it will be seen that this idea
| is distinctly discouraged
THE present practice of installing
post-offices in Federal buildings that
are devoted in part to other branches
of the Government service is open t.
serious objections. Although Fedora
buildings of the type usually erected
in large cities may be well adapted t
accommodate the offices of certain
other Government establishments, the!

HOTELS TURNED
PEOPLE AWAY
PASSENGERS FROM THE MONGO-
ASHORE RETURN TO VESSEL.

For the first time in their history
the local hotels were unable to accom-
modate applicants for rooms last night
and people had to be turned away. AS
the theatrical manager would say the
hotels played to standing room only"
And the cause of the unusual condi-
ton was the presence of so many
strangers in the city. A striking illus
tration of the crowded condition of the
hotels was shown aboard the S. S.
Mongolia last night. Some of the
through passengers left the boat in
tending to stay ashore over night. They
made application in vain to all hotels
and were unable. to secure any accom-
modations and in self defence they had
to return to the vessel to sleep.
A large number of people departed by
the Mongolia today from Honolulu so
that there will be more room in the
local hotels. With the departure of
the Manchuria on Thursday for San
Francisco another detachment of Wis
itors will depart. The striking feature
of the condition is the fact that the
city is crowded with visitors, more in
fact, than has been known in recent
time and probably i'm the history of the
islands, Already Manager Hertsche
of the Moana Hotel is considering the
advisability of having an annex to that
seaside hotel built

FIRE ON THE TEXAN
Continued from page one).

there is ample rooms for it to expand
when the water strikes it. Naturally
it is desired to finish the Stacking of
the lime without filling the entire COM
partment with water but if necessary
the compartment is to be filled TO get
the fire subdued.
This morning great clouds Of white
smoke were pouring out of hatch No.
8. The fireman had great difficulty in
getting down the hatch as the heat and
smoke were so great that work was
difficult. However holes had to be
cut in the hatch covering on the lower
deck to put the lines of hose through
into the lower section where the fire
was raging. The firemen would ven
ture down below the main deck and
come up within a few minutes dripping
with perspiratiOn and blinded by the
smoke. One of the lines of hose served
by the ships pumps, was run down
one of the ventilators.
A noon today the situation was pro-
blematical. What time the lime would
be Stacked out was uncertain. The
task is a difficult one and not until it
is over will either Captain Lyons Of
the vessel or Agent Morse be apt to be
relieved from the strain under which
they labor.
The heat of the decks about hatch
No where the fire is burning, is in
tense 1t is impossible for people to
stand on the steel decks for any length
of time. There is a covering over this
hatch the purpose is to keep the fresh
air from the burning lime and cargo.
People are keeping away from hatch
No 2. A vast quantity of steam has
been pumped into the compartment and
there is a possibility that the hatch
covering may be blown off as il has
not be securely fastened.

SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED
STATES MAKES IMPORTANT
AMENDMENT OF RULES.

Attorney S. M. Ballou has received a
letter from the clerk of the United
States Supreme Court announcing the
amendment of a rule of the court by
means of which Hawaii litigants will
have sufficient time in which to get the
records to Washington in cases which
are appealed. In the recent case of the
Nose Meheula VS.. the Pioneer Mill
Company, an appeal failed because
there was not time, under the rules
of the court, to get writ of error in
Washington before the plaintiff got a
writ of possession here. Ballou was in
Washington at about that time, and he
took the matter up, with the result
that an amendment affecting Hawaii,
Porto Rico and the Philippines was
adopted.
Under the old rule sixty days time
was allowed for perfecting appeals
from all the western states. The
amendment of this rule makes it in
clude Hawaii and Porto Rico and fur
ther declares that appellants from the
Philippines be allowed 12O days.

do not as a rule provide the best kind
of quarters for postal purposes. If the
working area of post-office is divided
into a series of separate rooms or oc-
cupies more than one floor as often
happens in Federal building. the
mails are handled at a great disad-
vantage
"What a post-office most needs is a
broad eXpanse of uninterrupted floor
space with an abundance of evenly
diffused light A single large room
i'm a one-story building. unobstructed by
partition walls and with ample sky
lighting, affords the best type of quar-
ters. The requirements of a post-of-
flee in this regard differ so radically
from the needs of the various other
Government agencies commonly quar-
tered in a Federal building that it is
hardly possible to house them salts
factorily under one roof.
"A further objection to this plan
arises from the fact that Federal build
ings are seldom placed at the most adj
vantageous point in the city for the
handling of mails. The location of the
main post Office is of peculiar import
ance. Wherever practicable it should
be i'm close proximity to the principal
railway station. When the post office
is distant from the railway much time
is consumed in Transporting the mail
to and from the trains. This not only
results in unfortunate delays, but adds
greatly to the expense of the service
For the reasons given, therefore, the
central branch of a city post office
where the mail is worked over in pre-
paration for its local distribution ant
out-of-town dispatch, should be housed
separately from other branches of the
government service in a suitably plan
ned building, located at the point where
the bulk of the city's mail is received
from and delivered to the railway
train.
"As a necessary part of the posta
system centering at such an Office Their,
should be a sufficient number of sta
tions in the business and Residential
portions Of the city to place within cas-!
reach of the people the usual post offic,
facilities"

NEW YORK YACHT
CLUB ENTERS
THE ANEMONE, NOW ON HER
COMPETE FOR HONOLULU'S CUP
WAY ROUND THE HORN, WILL

A welcome letter was received by
Secretary Wood of the Promotion Com
mittee today from Charles L. Tut, of
Colorado Springs, Col.
He acknowledged the receipt of the
invitation to enter his yacht Anemone
for the race from the coast to Homo
lulu, and accepted it.
The Anemone is an English built
yacht and when she arrives here will
be by all odds the most valuable craft
of her kind on the Pacific Ocean. She
is 81 feet in length and has a 13-foot
draft. She has auxiliary steam power
which, as her owner remarks, would Of
course be unused in the race. The
yacht is at present on her way from
England round the Horn and is due TO
arrive in April. Tut, who is a MEM
Der of the New York Yacht Club, will
sail her under that flag and will after
wards have a cruise about the South
Seas
He enters a prOviso in his accept
ance of the invitation to compete to
the effect that he may be enabled to
withdraw in case when the Anemone
arrives in San Francisco it should take
too long time to refit after her long
voyage.
THE fact that the New York Yacht
Club, the premier yachting organiza-
ton of the United States is to have an
entry for the race to Honolulu lis
source of keen delight to all interested.
