MANcHuRIA NOTES.

Governor-General Smith said before
departing on the Logan yesterday that
authorization had been received by
the postmaster from Washington per-
hitting passengers of the ManchuFia
to receive mail here that was address
ed to them at Oriental places.
Cablegrams are sent and received
by H. Hackfeld & Co. nowadays at
close intervals. Almost every move of
the Manchuria is said to be reported
structions returned over the wire from
the company as to what course to pur-
sue with the vessel.
Vice President Pfotenhauer of H.
Hackfeld & Co., Ltd, stated yesterday
that the Manchuria was lying easily
but was humping at the stern. He
said that no effort would be made by
the vessels having lines to the Man
ehuria to pull her off the rocks until
the arrival of the wrecking apparatus
from san Francisco.
The strongest cable procurable in
Honolulu was acquired by the agents
of the Pacific Mail Company for the
use of the revenue cutter Manning. 1t
is a steel cable one inch in diameter.
Mr.. Pfotenhauer ascertained that there
were no cables in Honolulu of sufficient
strength for an attempt to be made to
pull the steamer off.

WIRELESS SHOULD Be
ON ALL STEAMERS

| Major Van Vliet, L. S. A. command
ing officer at Camp Mckinley, stated
yesterday that in his opinion it would
be wise for the government-to equip
all its transports with wireless systems.
in view of the disaster to the Man
churia. With such systems aboard,
news of disasters at sea or upon shores
of islands such as the Hawaiian group
would be quickly sent to centers of
population and assistance got.
The Major said yesterday that had
he full equipment of materials he
would run military telegraph line to
the shore opposite the Manchuria- 4
1t has been suggested that this is a
splendid opportunity for the Signal
Corps, of the Hawaiian National Guard
to establish relay signal stations from
the deck of the Manchuria to Wanna
nalo landing, to Makapuu Pass to-
Koko Head. Diamond Head and town,
for the conveyance of messages. There
are times when messages are desired
to be sent to and from the Manchuria,
quickly and without wasting the time
necessary to send the same verbally
or in writing by means of sampans and
row boats.
The local signal corps has a fine
equipment of heliograph and night
flash apparatus and not only would
those interested in the fate of the
steamer be aided, but the corps would
have an invaluable opportunity to put
their knowledge to a practical test.

these two stations interferes with the
wireless system in force between the

that a cable man aboard the Manchuria
could use a flag to signal messages
from the Manchuria TO the Restorer
and then put the dispatch upon the
wireless on the vessel. The flag sys-
tenn employs but one banner and the
code IS the same as that used on the

PROFIT TAKING WAS LARGE

New York, January 6.-Today proved tive Saturday half days business in the history of the Stock Exchange, transac- tions in the two hours rising well over a million shares. The strength of the market was striking and comprehensive, notwithstanding somewhat irregular and occasional reactions. Profit-talxing in fact was on a large scale, but the readiness with which it was absorbed was strik- ing. The fact that yesterdays trading failed to show the late reactions which the week, served to convince speculative opinion that the weeks testing opera tions had proved the strength of the market with the definite relapse in the rates for money on call. The bank state ment proved somewhat of disappoint- ment, but yesterdays low rates for call loans were accepted as truer Index of money conditions, and speculative op- eratlons on the long side were conducted with greater boldness and on a large were the features of the market, and gossip was very busy with forecasts of the amount of the forthcoming Union Pacific dividend. Several industrial spe- cialties which have not moved hitherto also rose suddenly and violently.
