MIKE GRADY TO
PLAY WITH GIANTS

NEW YORK. February 27.-Mike Grady
will be in harness at the Polo Grounds
this year again. This is the fruit of a
deal that has been pending ever since the
annual meeting Of the National League
last December.
The New York club is paying $4,000 in
cash and must give up Catcher Fitzger-
aid and Outfielder Burke. But Grady,
since he joined the St. Louis Cardinals,
has shown such big improvement. par
ticularly in batting, that McGraw started
out to corral the player last summer, but
not until yesterday afternoon was the
deal conSummated
With Grady to take regular turns with
Bresnahan. the Giants will be well off in
catchers, and 1t will not help Frank
Bowerman's case. The big Michigan lum-
herman refused to accompany the Giants
west. demanding more salary. Even if he
should sign now it is not at all unlikely
that he will be traded or sold before
many days.

MILLMEN ON TRIAL.
Federal Court Begins sittings in North
Carolina.

CHARLOTTE. n. c., February 27-The
United States court convened I'm Green's
boro, n. c.. yesterday morning to try the
famous cases of the government against
the Charlotte millmen. The district attor-
ney called one of the penalty suits and Is
making a test case of it. and the result OF
this will determine all the cases. The de-
PENDANTS are charged with violating the
laws of the United States in bringing into
this country alien laborers to work In the
cotton mills. There are seventy-one counts
in the two complaints, making SILL 900 In
penalties that are being sued for by the
government. The men under indictment
are Edward A. Smith. Thomas NJ. Costello,
Sumner Sargent and D. c. Dwelle. In adj
dition to the counts for penalties. they are
charged with conspiracy to violate the
criminal laws.
There are many witnesses. and the trial
may consume several weeks. Among those
who will testify will be the twenty-six
English girls who were taken to Green's
boro from here several weeks ago.
There is a brilliant array of counsel on
both sides. The district attorney is assisted
by Assistant Attorney General A. l.. Cooley
of Washington, and representatives OF the
Department of Commerce and Labor. be.
sides local attorneys. leading attorneys of
Charlotte and Greensboro are appearing
for the defense.
The government contends that the aliens
brought into the United States are not
skilled laborers. 1t will introduce witnesses
who will testify that Mr.. Costello went to
England and contracted with the girls to
come to America and work in the mills The
papers in the case show that these English
girls say Costello promised them wages ont
of proportion to anything paid in this coun-
try, and promised to furnish them free
clothes of american style and fashion.
The defendants will attempt to show that
these girls have made many contradictory
statements on this point. and that none of
them ever claimed that such promises had
ever been made until they got into the
hands of Inspector Mclaughlin. who came
here for the purpose Of getting evidence.
The operatives were landed in New York
and brought southwark early last fall. Some
of them began to work I'm the mills In Char
lotte. Some went to the Manchester mills.

She went from GastOnia to Washington

JAPS MAY BUY
OCEANIC LINERS
SPRECKELS COMPANY GOING OUT
OF BUsINEss-ITs SHIPS ARE TO
BE SOLD.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 1O-Agents
of a large Japanese steamship COM
pany, reported to be the Shosen Kaisha
of Osaka, are trying TO negotiate the
purchase of the three liners of the
Oceanic Steamship Company, the Ven
tura, the sonoma and the Sierra, which
are now for sale.
Ever since it was announced some
time ago that the Oceanic Company
was going out of business, there has
been much speculation as to what dis
position would be made of it's fleet of
steamers. The three ships mentioned
are of 5000 tons and considered splen-
did vessels of their type. At present
repairs, which will probably cost about
100000, must be made to put them in
first-class condition. The necessity for
these repairs and the inability of the
company to raise funds to meet this
expense, because of the refusal of the
Spreckels Agency to loan the company
any more money, is one of the reasons
why the service of the company is to
en- by the company's officials for going
out Of business is the failure of Con-
gress to pass the ship subsidy bill
For the present the two smaller ships
Of the company, the Alameda and the
Mariposa will continue to run to Ho-
ncIulu and Tahiti according to the reg
ular schedule.
For long time the financial affairs
of the Oceanic company have been in
a most unsatisfactory condition. The
public holding, $8,7O4,7OO of the COM
pany's stock, now has absolutely moth
ing in sight to realize on. The bond
holders, whose holdings aggregate $2,-
100000, have the vessels of the COM
pany as security, and will doubtless
ESCAPE with a small loss. 1t is said
the Spreokels family interested in the
company viii reach a total of nearly
six million collars.
officials of the company state that
the Australian line has always lost
money. The sum of $249, 1886 was an

The Japanese are believed to wish

Orient, which may be affiliated with

INTEREST BEING
TAKEN IN BIG RACE
PLANS MATURING FOR TRANS
PACIFIC RACE TO HONOLULU IN
19OS-SIX ENTRIES ALREADY.

Much interest is being taken by Ha-
waiian yachtsmen in the preparations
being made for the great trans-pacifc
race to take place in June 1905 The
success of last years race has made
the desire to see the next one even
superior and no pains will be spared
on the part of local sportsmen to at
tain that end. There is every evidence
that the same sentiments inspire the
members of other yacht clubs and
large number of entries are expected to
be made. Up to the present time six
have been secured.
The following communication from
the South Coast Yacht Club, Of Los
Angeles, has been received by Secretary
Petrie of the Hawaii Yacht Club which
gives in brief the conditions and pro-
visions under which the race will be
sailed:
The South Coast Yacht Club.
of Los Angeles, California,
offers two valuable cups for an ocean
yacht race from san Pedro, California,
to Honolulu, Hawaii, starting June 18th
1908, conducted under the joint aus
pices of the South Coast Yacht Club
and the Hawaii Yacht Club.
This race is open to all yachts of not
less than 40 feet waterline length, be-
longing to any regularly organized
yacht club of any country, without res
trictions as to rig, number of crew
professional or amateur) or sails but
no motive power other than sails shall
be used. Time allowance will be given
based on one-half hour per foot of
racing length for the entire distance,
racing length to be the load waterlne
length, plus one-half the length of the
overhane.
All the conditions surrounding such
a race as the one proposed are ideal,
strong, steady, fair winds, without gales
or fog, being the almost invariable
climatic condition at that season.
Entries or requests for information
should be sent to the secretary.
Not only are yachtsmen interested
in helping to make this transpacifc
yachting a success, and in seeing it de-
velop into a regular event, but business
men of the Territory generally feel that
the relations which have already been
established between the islands and the
coast have been furthered in no small
measure by last years race and are
anxious to lend their support to help
ing out the future arrangements Mr..
Hammond of the South Coast Yacht
Club, who at present is in Honolulu
with the Los Angeles tourists, stated
that the Ohio excursion was to large
extent due to the interest aroused by
last years race. He also stated that
the race had increased the popularity
of his own club and although the MEM
bership fee has been increased some rs
new members have been added to the
rolls in the last year.
w. H. McInerny one of the leading
members of the Hawaii Yacht Club
is urging Hawaiians to get busy and
enter a suitable boat in the race next
year. IF necessary" he said, Il think
there would be no trouble in raising
the necessary money by popular sub
scription"
