FIRE CAUSES A
CHANGE Of ORDERS
THE COLLIER ALEXANDER is TO
GO TO SAN FRANCISCO INSTEAD
OF MAGDALENA.

Cable orders were this morning re-
ceived from the Navy Department at
Washington to the effect that the Navy
collier Alexander proceed from this
port to San Francisco, reporting to the
big fleet at that port.
Originally orders were for the Alex
ander to join the fleet at Magdalena
bay where it has been engaged in tar
get practice, but these orders were to-
day countermanded, as the Alexander
cannot now reach the big battleships
at Magdalena.
On account of the fire in her bunkers
and cargo the Alexander will probably
not leave here until Wednesday.
The coal she carries, 400 tons, from
Cavite, is Pocahontas and George s
Creek and is being transferred around
the world to the fleet. 1t cost about
SO per ton, mined but will cost $40 per
ton by the time it gets into battleship
bunkers, when freight and various
landings are reckoned.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-03-30

drowned, but it seems that the fire |
worked forward, got to the wooden
bulkhead and has eaten into cargo
Under no circumstances will the
Alexander put to sea until it is firmly
believed that the fire is out. 1t IS
easier to fight the fire here, alongside
the wharf, than it would be at sea She
will probably not sail until Wednesday.
Fire Chief Thurston of the local fire
department was aboard the Alexander
last night, as was also Admiray Very,
Commandant of the Naval Station. The
fire chief rendered valuable assistance,
cooperating with First Officer Keene
of the Alexander in trying to squelch
the fire.
The fire chief has been kept busy
this last week fighting coal fires.
The fire in the coal shed, No. 8, in
the yard, is still going, but has been
under control for two or three days.
Nearly two-thirds of the $1,000 tons OF
coal in that shed have been removed
and sixty carts and hundred men, al
told, Navy men and Hawaiian and
other stevedores, are working to get
the rest of the fuel out of the shea
where the fire is smouldering under
and along the wooden flooring.
The shed is practically a ruin, hav-
ing fallen to a great extent in the cen
ter where the supports have subsidized,
owing tO thp floor hpams having fallen
out of place through the fire that all
last week was eating away the sup
ports.
The walls have bulged and broken
where heavy streams have sluiced the
weight of the coal to strain them out
ward and all around the shed coal lies,
heaped on the usually well-kept walks
of the Naval Station yard.
At the makai-Ewa end of the shed
this morning there was a blaze for 4
few minutes where the fire worked
through the flooring, but it was quick
ly suppressed, the Iroquois feeding a
hose which had been led through the
sewer so as not to interfere with trar-
fic on the esplanade.
Fire Chief ThurstOn has a man
there cooperating with the navy
forces
When all the coal is out of this shed
it will be repaired and made ready to
receive the three sailing vessel cargoes
now en- route from the Atlantic coast

ARRANGEMENTS.

Through the Sugar Planters Asso-
citation a number of the Portuguese
families who left here some time ago
in hopes of securing the high wages
which have been paid laborers in San
Francisco and who were in many cases
unable to secure any employment
whatever, will be brought back to Ho-
nolulu. NJ. A. Silva, of this city, will
leave on this mission by the Alameda
on Wednesday.
Just how many families Silva will
be able to find who wish to return to
Hawaii is not certain, but of late many
letters have been received by local
Portuguese asking for assistance. The
high wages expected did not material
ize and, worse than that, for some time

REsToRER's WATER.

J. NJ. Little superintendent of Wa
ter Works, contrfiadicts the statements
made at a meeting of the directors Of
the Merchants Association that the
cabeship Restorer had been charged
$4OO per month for water, which ex-
orbitant rate had in part to do with
the vessels being taken from these
waters. Instead of the figures named,
Mr.. Little shows figures to show that
the ship paid but $313.75 in the six
months between June 80 to December
81, 1907. Even this would have been
lowered, it was stated, had the vessel
chosen to lay alongside a wharf in
stead of in the stream.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-03-30

Two coal fires continue to create
excitement and worry at the local
Naval Station and a third is imminent.
AS stated exclusively in The Star
last Friday the great pile makai of
the Hawaiian Electric Company's plant
has been showing signs of heating and
yesterday the heat waves were very ap-
parent. This morning they were stlu
more noticeable and more men and
horses and carts are to be called 70
work for the salvation of the navy
fuel The fence on the Alakea street
side will be taken down and a few
hundred tons of coal will be hauled
away so that the firemen can get at
the furnace which has developed near
the bottom and near the edge. This
pile is not under a shed and has been
affected, doubtless, by the recent rains.
Aboard the Navy collier Alexander,
Lying at Naval wharf No. 2, the situa-
tion became serious yesterday and this
morning it was found that the fire in
her bunkers had reached the cargo in
No. 2, hatch, forward working through
wooden bulkhead The bunker will
| be entirely cleaned out so that streams
of water can be directed at the new
! danger.
Last night most Of the crew of the
Alexander were on duty, her firemen
working steadily without relief. This
morning they were turned in and Ha-
waiian stevedores were called.
The bunkers were yesterday flooded
and then the bilge pumps were started
This morning there were six feet ot
water in the hold.
While the fire was at its height in
the after part of the bunker the iron
bulkhead was red hot The wooden
bulkhead forward, separating the bunk
er from the forward hold, where there
are 1900 tons of cargo coal, was an
after thought following the construc'
tion of the vessel. 1t is supposed tc
be watertight, being caulked, but is moi
what it is supposed to be. The iron
bulkhead, separating the after part ol
the bunker from the engine room is
watertight Under the burning bunker
there is a three-foot fresh-water tank
the vessel having a double bottom
At first it was thought to put in new
bunker coal on top of that which haC
been blazing, after the latter mad beer
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-03-30

it has been practically impossible for
many to get work Of any kind. The
labor market has been overstocked
and the Portuguese on the Coast have
found that they have been replaced by
Americans who wanted work. As the
result many have been left absolutely
destitute and facing starvation.
Unable to stand the cold weather,
with the combination of hunger and
no prospect of obtaining employment,
these men are only too glad of a chance
to get back to Hawaii which they have
now come to regard as a land of plen-
ty. The next trip of the Alameda will
probably bring back many of the dis
appointed ones and Silva will stay af-
ter that to collect more.
