More than 1900 Marylanders from the
Eastern Shore Of the State came TO Wash
ington yesterday TO view the sights and
incidentally TO make a combined steamer
and railroad trip by way OF vacation.
The excursion was run from the railway
points along the Maryland, Delaware and
Virginia Railway Company to Love
Point. in Queen Anne County. and at
that point the excursiouists boarded the
steamer Love Point and came to Chesa-
peake Beach
This is the first time we all have been
on steamer or a railway train" said
hundreds Of the excursionists to S. L.
Leycock, who handled the crowd on their
trip to Washington from the Beach, and
many of them seemed to be in doubt as
TO whether or not they would ever get
back 10 their peach and tomato crops.
Steamer and Trains Give Alarm.
II excursion started. IN Maryland. on
tne J ectern Shore, at o'clock yester-
D., morning from Rehoboth. and coun-
tfyn en- and their wives and children were
gathered up At every stop made. Many
Of them boarded the train for the first
time In their lives with much hesitancy.
and when it came TO getting aboard the
steamboat there was an epidemic OF
qualms, but all mastered their disincHna-
ton TO make the water trip on a ship that
belched smoke. and they landed at Chesa-
peake Beach with shouts OF Joy.
When they landed from the Chesapeake
Beach train al Chesapeake Junction, there
were surprises IN store for many more

Wonder of "Rubberneck" Travel.
The big climax was reached. however.
when they got aboard the sightseeing
cars at Fifteenth street and New York
avenue. and went whirling away on the
rubberneck wagons. buzzing along with
no visible motive power. and most of
them were SO interested n trying 10 see
what made the wheel go round they
did not waste much time looking at the
points Of interest grandiloquently pointed
out by the man with the megaphone.
They finished the ride. however, and
boarded cars that got them back to
Chesapeake Junction al 4:30 o'clock,
where they boarded cars for the return
trip, with a short stop at the beach re-

It is probable. because Of the favor with
which the trip met that the Maryland
Delaware and Virginia Railway Company
viii run similar excursions some time
later In the summer.

for the consideration OF the Commission

Fifteenth street northwest whose desire
is that in the revision of the building reg

iting the use of fuel sheds as a domicne

That there is need for this" writes
Dr. Mcpherson, can be clearly demon

be extended TO cover a matter OF this
kind. The question, he said. of where
and how poultry may be kept clearly

HART CASE IS
AGAIN POSTPONED

Lionel Hart appeared in police court
yesterday morning for preliminary
trial on the carge of mutilating and
destroying public documents, kerosene
warehouse receipts for oil, and his case
was continued until this morning. No
attorney represented him at the time,
A. G. NJ. Robertson having withdrawn.
After the continuance Attorney George
Davis gave notice of appearance for
Hart. Hart stated that he had ex-
pected talk with Attorney Breckons,
of the prosecution, in regard to his
plea. He did not want to make a plea
that would interfere with all the facts,
concerning others alleged to be impli-
Gated, being brought out. Later he
told the police that he knew nothing
of any money being paid TO legislators
TO urge legislation favoring the Stand
ard Oils Independent warehouse at
1wilei. This morning his case may be
continued for couple of weeks.
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1907-09-27

thousand cases.
L. E. Arnold, the manager of the
Hawaiian Pineapple Company's can
ming plant, is satisfied with the record
he has made this season but looks for
ward to greater things in each sue
ceeding season for some years to come.
At present he is busy drafting the
plans for the new buildings TO be start
ed at once and is also figuring out a
means of disposing of the waste from
the canning works.
The price paid the growers this sea-
son for their pines ran from $50 to
$3.50 a ton according to the quality
of the fruit. Some few shipments be-
cause of overripeness, had to be re-
fused, but this was a very small frac-
tion of the offerings and the growers
now have a better idea of what is
needed, so that refusals in the future
will have to be very little.
James D. Dole, the president of the
company, discussed prices at eonsid-
cradle length with the representative
of the Advertiser, particular attention
being paid to the report that during
the coming season the prices to be Of
fered to Independent growers would
be lower than this year, while it was
the intention to increase the price to
be asked for the canned product. Both
these assertions were denied by Mr..
Dole, who stated that the price both
of the raw material and the canned
pines could be fixed only after the
question of supply and demand had
been settled, which would not be until
near the beginning of each season. The
fruit crops of the mainland determined
to quite an extent the prices the job
bers would offer for Hawaiian pines.
A plentiful crop would mean smaller
prices for the local canneries, scare
ity of mainland fruit would create a
greater demand for the Hawaiian prod
uct and consequent stiffening in the
price. The prices to he paid next sea-
son, or during the winter season. which
viii commence about the first of the
year, is therefore a matter which can
only be settled at the time, forecasts
being speculative only.
The question of canning other fruits
than pineapples has not yet been taken
up seriously by the company, although
it is probable that experiments will be
made within a year to determine what
can be done in the way of utilizing the
machinery for the canning of other
Hawaiian fruits during the periods
when the pineapple business is quiet
