POLICE COURT FINES
TOTAL G00DLY SUMS

Eighteen gamblers, the fruits of the
two raids of Wednesday, were convict
ed in the police court yesterday. Seven
of these were japanese, who anteed
into the scale Of justice to the extent
of $55. The rest We're Chinese. who
cougned up altogether $66.
The result of the trial Of Tagami,
who was running a blind pig on King
street, near Liliha. until Lieutenant
Luahiwa raided the place. was to add
$3.50 more to the pile before Judge An
drade while three hackdrivers, who
had left their horses united while soli-
citing patronage from the Claudine
passengers in the early morning, adde1
their mites of Sc apiece. This made
the total fines fer the two hour ses-
sion, $3.50.
Between the collecting features Of
the morning the judge took time to
pass a sixty day sentence on William
Rosario who had stolen $3.50 from an
Iwilei woman, and to listen to the plea
of Frank Grau why he should have
another chance. Frank advanced the
argument that this was his first spree
this year. His sentence was suspended
for thirteen months to gave him an
opportunity to show how much there
was in his story that he had straight
ened up.
The six other blind pig cases down
for trial went over until February Z.

BACKED BY NAVY
AMERICA IN PACIFIC
IS IMPROBABLE

The Hawaiian Islands. Wake Island,
and Guam form a line of communica-
ton to Manila lying between the mar
row limits of the 18th and 2lgt paral-
lcls The American terminal points
Of this line aye located AZ san Fran
cisco, Los Angeles, and Panama, and
to all three OF these Honolulu holds n
central position. The prcemilence
which II now enjoys AS the rldiating
point of the great commercial routes
Of the Pacific will only be enhinced
with the opening Of Ihc Panama Can
al, because II will lie in the path of
an increasing ne of vessels moving
along from Panama to China, Japan,
or Asiatc Russia. At the western end
Of this island chain Of communications
are the Philippines. This large group.
scattered over nm area measuring 1000
miles north to south and half as much
east to west. IL located wholly within
the tropics, AMI distributed around 1t
in wide-sweCping semicircle a.c the
Far Asian countries whose vast pop
ulations make the markets oil the
East.
At present we supply this whole
market with only about II per cent.
of its imports while the commercial
countries of Europe haze share OF
80 rcr cent OF this Import trade. The
total commerce Of the United Etates
with Asia and Australasia has risen
/ from sl3S 100000 In 1892 10 S2ST O00.-
GOO in 1909, having more than doubled
within single decade. Under the
new conditions which we are now fac.
ing. these figures will rapidly rise to
double and treble the amount.
| Considering therefore, the problem
Of the future Pacific supremacy from
the three points of geographical loca-
ton. commercial advantages AM IA
cilities for manufacture. and. lastly OF
strategic strength, We find the United
States impregnablc. No other nation
or group Of nations possesses anything
approximating our combined advant-
ages. Two other points remain for
consideration One Is population, and
the other Is naval strength.
As to the former, the facts are well
within our ken. We shall soon have
passed the 1O0,00O,000 point, and the
middle of this century will probably
see this nation fairly under way to-
wards the second hundred million.
Our immigration, far from diminish.
ing. has of late years risen to heights
equalled only during few exception
al years befores 'and the annual aver.
age is now higher than ever With
that. while in the older Eastern
States (due to a variety OF causes)
the rate of natural increase has been
| s.bl ta hA in
crease in the West and South. We
may easily look forward. therefore, to
the time when, with the single pos.
sible exception of Russia. our mere
numerical superiority will exert an
unparalleled influence In a policy Of
expansion in the Far East and In
South America.-Von Schierbrand's

thousands OF homeseekers in New York City would
be driven into that state through the inability of
New York City to provide cheap and rapid trans
portation- He said that the elimination OF trans
