The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-12-15

Joseph P. Cooke, manager of Alex
ander & Baldwin and vice president
of the Chamber of Commerce, was
asked this morning if anything was
known in Honolulu to indicate that
the reported increase of rates on
transcontinental freight by the Anne
rican-H Hawaiian Steamship Company
would affect the business Of Homo
lulu. In reply he said
80 far / do not know anything
about the increase excepting what /
have read in the Coast papers. Even
the information there does not seem
to be very definite. Perhaps there is
not much in it.
81 do not think the increase if there is
one, will affect us here very much. We
may hear something about it from
Mr.. Alexander in Thursdays mail"
Mr.. Cooke remembered, when it was
mentioned, that at the conference OF
local business men with Captain Mat
son, about the projected new Matson
steamer, an animated side discussion
took place on transcontinental freight
rates with reference to favors to goods
for transpaciic points. In this con-
nection he was asked If a bad situa-
tion might not be produced here
should Hartman, providing it is true
that he is at the back Of the Ameri-
can Hawaiian increase OF rates. dis
criminate against the Matson Naylga-
tion Company in railroad rates on
merchandise bound for Hawaii. To
this he could only give a shake Of the
head with a remark to the effect that
further information would be needed
to form any opinion on the subject
Captain c, r. Morse, freight agent
OF the Hawaiian company
was questioned at his office In Hack
folds about the matter lie stated
that nothing definite regarding the re-
ported increase OF Uanscontinenta
rates by the company had vet been
received by him Therefore he could
not say whether or not local bust

TERRITORY TO FURNISH LABORATORY BUILDING AT KALIH
FOR THE FEDERAL SPECIAL SITS WHO HAVE $4,000 YEAR
MAY BE THIS TSI4AND-EIABoRATE PREPAR-
ATIoNs FOR SCIENTIFIC 1--WE sTIGATIoNs

The arrangements for starting the
Federal leprosy work on this island
at once, were the subject of a meeting
this morning in the Robins Edd Blue
chamber, in which President Robin
son, of the Board of Health, Fred c.
Smith, Secretary Mott-Smith, DR.. Way
son and DR.. Brinckerhoff took part
The result obtained was that the Ter
ritory will furnish a building for the
Federal staff at the Kalihi detention
station while the laboratory appara-
tus, medicines and salaries will be
paid from the money appropriated for
the purpose of researches in this line
by the Federal Government.
The appropriation made for this
purpose by Congress- is one of $4,000
annually and IL is estimated that only
$35, 900 of this is needed for Leprosa-
rum work on Molokai. By a deci-
sion Of the Comptroller of the Trea-
sury, made recently, it was settled

FREAR TAKES UP
ANOTHER MATTER
IN WASHINGTON
CABLES FOR FIGURES SHOWING HOW MUCH HAWAII BEEN
SPENDING IN FIGHTING CoNrA G1oUs DsEAsEs-REPoRT ON
LAND MATTERS HERE WANTED AT ONCE SENATOR
PROBABLY RETURN SOON

The following cablegram was recetv-
ed by Acting Governor Mott-Smith
from Governor Frear this morning.
Washington, D. c., Dec. Is.
Mail Land Commission report to
Senator Foraker and Representative
Hamilton.
Cable approximate amounts paid by
merchants and Territory in re infec-
tious diseases other than leprosy since
1900.
Perhaps go New York Thursday.
FREAR.
The first part of the message means
that in connection with the changes
which Governor Frear desires to have
made in the Organic Act which will
allow the local legislature to amend the
present land laws, the members of the
Senate and House committees desire
to be fully informed. Senator Foraker,
of Ohio, is the chairman of the Com
mittee on Pacific Islands and Porto
Rico, in the United States Senate and
Representative Hamilton is the chair
man of the Committee on Territories
in the House.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-12-15

ness would be affected by any such
raise of rates. Something might be
learned by Thursdays mail.
On reference being made to news
paper talk of late about competition
on the Sound route, Captain Morse
said there was no need of worry on
the part of the Amefican-Hawaiian
1t maintained a fourteen-day Sound
service as against a forty-five day SER
vice by the Matson company.
z. e. Paxton did not think, when
spoken to, that there was any imme-
diate menace to business in Honolulu
in the reports of the intended action
of the American-Hawaiian company.
At all events, IL would not affect the
cost of sugar transportation by the
Tehuantepec route, as the existing
contract between the planters and the
steamship company had several years
to run.
It will be noticed, in the San Fran
cisco account of the freight increase
elsewhere in this paper that Hawaii
an sugar is mentioned as a highly lu-
crative source of the American-Ha
waiian's revenue. Also it will be per
ceived that San Francisco merchants
are much worked up over the propos'
ed increase of transcontinental freight
rates by the company mentioned
which until now has been their savior
from extortionate railroad carriage as
well as a most expeditions carrier o.
their merchandise.

that the remaining funds could be
used in work on this island,
1t is understood that another physi-
clan, an expert on leprosy, will be add
ed to the staff here, with such other
attendants as may be needed.. their
salaries being provided for from the
Federal funds The Territory will, for
its part, give the use of one of the cot
tages at Kalihi which is now vacant,
for the $4,000 mentioned cannot be
used, under the decision mentioned,
for the erection of a building. 1t is
expected that the results obtained
from the work at the new station will
be extremely valuable, for Dr. Brinck-
erhoff will be able to keep the work
in very close touch with the work in
this city.
The Territory will take care of any
patients who may be treated by the
Federal men and this, with the use
of the building mentioned, will be the
only expense to the local Government

WASHINGTON November S0.-The
Washington Herald prints the follow
ing:
Weary and feeble, patient and hop
ing, Queen Liliuokalani, of Hawaii
or, to be correct, former Queen Liliu-
okalani-arrived in this city yesterday
afternoon alone, save for a maid. No
royal encourage accompanied the for
mer monarch on her long voyage
across the waters from her far off
home; no servants were in her train
to obey the very glance of her eye or
to attend to her physical comforts in
her old age.
There was no one waiting for her
majesty at the railroad station to
make speeches of welcome and to
cheer her heart and make her feel
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-12-15

The second part of the message evi-
IDENTIFY refers to an attempt which is
being made to obtain assistance from
the Federal government in times of
plague or other infectious disease. 1t
will be remembered that when San
Francisco and Seattle were visited with
plague during the past year, the Fed
eral government took charge and spent
large sums of money in improving the
sanitary conditions, killing rats and
otser like work. Teis was not done
in this city, the money for this work
being from the funds of the Board of
Health, which soon ran out and were
then replenished by money obtained
from the Merchants Association
through the Shippers Wharf tax.
Secretary Mott-Smith states that
Governor Frear, in saying that he may
leave for New York day after tomor-
row, is likely to mean that he is or
his way home, which will indicate
his return to this city by the Pacific
Mail liner Korea, which is due here
on December 2S.

WERE
DRUNK
LADY VICTIM OF AUTO CHARGE
ON BUGGY MADE ACCUSA-
TION.

Sunday nights sensational auto
buggy wreck was last evening the
subject of a probing bee at the police
station, Chief of Detectives Kalakiela
presiding.
All but the suffering victims were
present.
Frank Lewis, the driver of the Kis-
sci car which wrecked the buggy car
rying Ed Duisenberg and Miss Roth
was one of the testifiers.
Fred Wright, mounted officer, who
arrived after the accident, said that
Jack Scully came up to him with his
auto driven by Billie Meyers and stat
ed that he had taken Duisenberg to
the hospital. The auto had no num-
ber. Two men and two white girls
were present.
Otto Heine, one OF the passengers
in the Lewis auto, said that Meyers
machine was ahead of Lewis and was
raising a great deal of dust. When
Meyers auto had passed the Duisen-
berg rig, Lewis turned to the left,
when the rig appeared right in front
of them. Lewis sounded his horn and
turned his machine to the right. The
same time the rig also turned to the
right and then the collision occurred.
Heine estimated that both machines
were going at the rate of twenty miles
an hour
Ludwigsen, Jr., who was with Heine
in the Lewis auto, said that the ma
chine was going on the right side OF
the road up to the time of colliding
with the buggy, at the rate of fifteen
or twenty miles an hour The COLI
sion was so sudden that he could not
describe it, but he remembered that
the horn was footing at the time.
Frank Lewis said that, as his ma
chine was passing John Ena road
Meyers auto was about 200 feet ahead
of his and both were going at the rate
of about 20 miles an hour. Lewis was
in the middle of the road. Just be-
fore the collision, Lewis saw a light
on his left about 300 feet ahead and
coming toward him. He did not see
the rig until he was about twelve
feet away and then he turned to the
right and the rig turned the same di-
rection; Lewis explained that he
could not turn to the left on account
of the light coming toward him and
consequently, the collision occurred
No light could be seen from the buggy
After the accident the lady remarked
that all the occupants of the auto
were drunk. There was one drunken
man in the machine.
Meyers testified that he had not seen
Lewis auto on his way out to Wal
kiki. He passed the buggy to his
right, but could not see whether there
was light on it or not. He was driv-
ing his machine at the rate of fifteen
to twenty miles an hour.
Lloyd testified that he saw the ac-
cident from the rapid transit car on
the switch but could not tell at what
rate of speed the autos were going, but
both were going pretty fast and the
buggy was going slow.
It is understood that neither of the
victims will prosecute.
