small boats to see that none of the
seventy-three stowaways aboard should
endeavor to escape
Yesterday these stowaways made an
| effort to get away and many of them
did manage to get as far as on the qua
rantine wharf They were secured
and placed back aboard ship and eigh-
teen guarus employed to see that they
did not again make an attempt to es-
cape.
United States Inspectors Of Hulls
and Boilers Boles and Bu'ger this
forenoon went aboard the Kumeric to
examine her hull and boilers and view
her steerage passenger accommodations
At noon they completed their work and
the ship was ready to take passengers.
Tomorrow the laps going to Van
couver bag and baggage, will be hustled
aboard and it is expected that the emf
grant ship will be ready to sail on
Wednesday.
| While there are. according to Chill
ingworth, ten thousand Japanese ready
and anxious to go to Canada and while
it is believed the Kumeric could be
| packed with between 1000 and 5000 in
the steerage, the number to leave here
at the present reckoning will be 1,57l
and to accommodate these 3O5 new
hunks will have to be put in at once
Chillingworth himself will not go to
Canada in the Kumeric He will take
passage for San Francisco in the S. S.
Alameda, sailing at 10 o'clock We'd
nesday morning and will go to Van
couver by rail from San Francisco.
The greatest trouble in connection
with the Kumerics presence here is ex-
perienced with the stowaways. For
these people the ship is responsible and
heavy fine would be imposed on Cap
tain Baird if any one of them managed
to effect an escape. They must be
taken away in the Kumeric and it is
| immaterial to the quarantine officials
what becomes of them as long as they
are not landed here The immigration
law requires that they be returned
whence they came and by the steam
ship people.

NOT sure ABOUT
THE LIGHTHOUSE
REPORT OF SELECTION OF A SITE
UNCONFIRMED BY CAPTAIN I.
w. OTWELL.

Captain c. W. Orwell, U. S. Army
engineer in charge of lighthouse con-
struction and harbOr improvements for
the Territory, stated this morning that
he had received no adyices relative TO
the settlement of the location of the
rear range light, which has been hang
ing fire so long on account of the op-
position of Governor Carter to the site
selected by Captain Otwell's predeces-
sor, Captain Slattery, at the foot Of
Fort street at the junction of rs
planade
The Federal engineers have been op-
posed to the location offered by the
Territorial government which puts the
light behind the sheds of the Oceanic
Steamship Company's sheds, and
makes it less easily picked up by YES
sells at the harbor entrance, than would
be the case were it located in the street
in front of the sheds,
Captain Orwell stated that it had
been his understanding that the mat
ter would be allowed to rest until the
coming of Secretary Straus when the
decision would be left with him after
he had had time to personally look into
it, If the matter has been finally de-
cided, however, as stated. it will be
probably but a short time until the
local engineer in charge will be so
notified. and work ordered commenced.

WILLING TO LET HIN DIE.
Singing Message Sent by Farmer
Worsted in Business Deal.

In the old colony town Of Scituate,
Mass, once lived Deacon j, who
had yoke Of oxen he desired to
sell. The news reached the ears OF
Farmer T, who lived in another
portion of the town, who was in want
of a pair SO he visited the deacon,
who met him with a gracious smile
and led him to the oxen, which were
chewing their cuds and to all appear
ances ready for any amount of toll.
After some bargaining a difference
of FIVE dollars remained Finally the
deacon said: 81 am old and feeble.
and shall not live long, and five dol
lars will be Of no account" so the
bargain was made Farmer T. took
the oxen me.
They proved worthless, could not
work. and had been heated. He felt
provoked at being sold, and, seeing
a person the next day who was going
to the part of the town where the
deacon lived, said: You tell Deacon
j. he need not live another ID
minute longer on my account
