SUBMARINE SIGNALLING.

Five transatlantic steamers when
entered the port of New York in the
thick fog that prevailed on Thursday
and Friday, November q and %, report
their experience with submarine Sig
nails First Lieutenant Poumlot of the
French line steamship La Sayoie ran
into fog Friday morning when coming
on the coast. At II o'clock he began
listening for the submarine bell on
Nantucket Shoals lightship; heard II
clearly four minutes later, 40 degrees
tn port: he shaped his course accord
ingly. and ran for Sandy Hook, which
hell he picked up at distance or three
miles. and entered New York harbor.
After a years experience Lieutenant
Poumlot says that all vessels should
be equipped to receive submarine sig
nails in order to protect them from dls-
aster.
ON the afternoon Of the same day the
Hamburg steamship Patrl-
cia got the Nantucket Shoals bell ABOUT
ten miles out, and was able to shape
her course so as not TO approach the
light vessel nearer than nine rnlles'
The steamship Moltke, also OF the
Hamburg Amerfcan line. leaving New
York for Mediterranean ports, got
hSandv Hook bell at a distance OF hve
miles. and went on her eastward way.
The White Star steamship Baitlc
heard the Fire Island bell when eleven
miles distant, anG two hours later
pieked up Sandy Hook at about the
same distance.
| The Cunard steamship Mauritania,
/ on her first trip, while feeling her way
! through the fog, heard the Sandy Hook
/ hell at a distance of twelve and half
miles. and ran slowly up to the light
ship. She heard the bell for an hour
before she heard the whistle. IN
doubtedIy this vessel, with nine tons
/ of gold. besides other cargo, represent
ed the greatest marine risk that ever
crossed the Atlantic. The sense of re
lief felt by a captain when he hears
| the sound of the marine bell and Is
able to get direction exactly may be
| imagined An air signal is uncertain
il is often absolutely misleading; i
may be heard at five miles and lost a
two miles; but such distances as the
five steamships report on Friday las
cannot possibly be equalled by the bes
air signals ever invented.-Maritim'

JAPAN AND HER PLANS
To NATIONALEE SUGAR

TOXIC, December 2S.-The twenty
fourth session of the Imperial Diet is
of much Importance by reason of the
Budget involving both increased taxa
ton and the postponement of public
enterprises. The expiry of the term Of
Representatives shortly after the close
of the present session inspires conclu-
sive activity among Opposition mem
bers in particular. The Ministerial
Seiyu-kai is compelled to support the
increased taxation bill, but is likely
to propose the naturalization of the
sugar industry as a quid pro quo
thereof. Upon the introduction of the
proposal, it will constitute burning
question, as some partisans are pre-
arranging opposition based on the con-
tentioni that such a step would obviate
any increase of the tax on sugar under
private management, and encourage
the import of foreign raw sugar. Re-
curing to the Budget, the Daido club
will support it with reserve, but the
Progressives will object thereto, in
view of the forthcoming general cleo
ton. AS to other questions, the Daido
Club and the Progressives will coope-
rate against the Seiyu-kai. The Da-
lido and Progressive parties will de-
mand an explanation of the govern
ment as TO the proposed enforcement
of the increased taxation and the post
ponement of public enterprises, pro-
posed in less than one year after an
explicit declaration in favor of the
principle of no increased taxation and
no loan bonds, and may introduce a
vote of censure The recent Prefec-
tural elections will also form subject
for impeaching Home Minister Hara.
The heterogeneous Yuko-kai will OPP
pose the increased taxation with the
Progressives, but will cooperate with
the Daido Club as well as the Progress
sives as to other problems.

BISHOP MOORE SAW THE
BATTLE OF CHEMULPO

Bishop David H. Moore, who. will
arrive today by the Manchuria to pre-
side at the annual conference of the
Methodist church, was an eyewitness
of one of the two naval engagements
which opened the war between Japan
and Russia. He arrived in Chemulpo
on the Russian transport Sungari on
the early morning of the day of the
battle of Chemulpo, February, 1904.
Later in the day, from the heights
behind Chemulpo. he saw the Japa-
nese cruisers attack the Russian YES
sci and saw the Russian vessels sunk.
The name plate of the Sungari drifted
ashore on a piece of wreckage and
was given to the Russian commander,
who afterwards gave it to Bishop
Moore.
Bishop Moore prepared an illustrated
lecture about the battle of Chemulpo,
which he delivered great many
times, the proceeds being devoted to
the support of the Japanese rendered
destitute by the war. This lecture he
will give next Monday evening at the
request of many Japanese in Ho-
nolulu.

Editor Advertiser: In your issue of
18th inst. you published a letter from
Mr.. T. Give Davies relative to the
above, explaining to the Women's
Guild of ST Andrews Cathedral the
present position of the scheme for the
above memorial. From Mr.. Davies
letter it appears that the intention of
the memorial committee is to erect a
tower to the cathedral as fitting and
proper form of memorial to the mem
ory of the deceased lady.
The committee may have come to the
best possible decision, all tastes, opinions,
wishes and desires of the many friends
and subscribers considered, but as one
having known Mrs Macintosh, and
having enjoyed the privileges of her
acquaintance and the honor of her
friendship for many years, I desire TO
make a very respectful protest against
the erection of a tower to the cathe-
dral as fitting memorial, and to ex-
press great regret that the committee
did not come to a decision that would
have better helped to express both to
present and future generations the
lifework of this noble woman.

who knew 1.-The little mother" (as she
was affectienately called) that hers

SEGREGATION IN JAPAN.

The segregation of lepers in Japan
is to be postponed for year on ac-
count of lack of funds. The Japan
Gazette says: AN Imperial Ordinance
was gazetted on December 26th post
poning the enforcement of the Proven
ton of Leprosy Law to 1909, instead of
1908, as forecast in the provisions of
the law. This change is due to the
curtailment of the Home Office credit
for the 190S-9 fiscal year.

that the big drop in price between
July and August in hay is the regular
yearly change in the market conse-
quent on the new crop coming in, al
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1908-01-14

though it is the opinion of Mr.. Dwight
that the big drop was in consequence
of the appearance of the new firm in
the business The contention of the
feed dealers seems to be verified by
the fact that hay delivered by the
California Feed Company towards the
latter end of June, on the twentieth,
was invoiced at $4,000, three dollars
less than the price on July /.
OTHER DEPARTMENTS PAY LESS.
The fact thai at the present time the
garbage department is paying less for
it's feed than the road department, both
in the same stables, is one of the para
doxical things brought about by the
present way of purchase.
For instance, the Union Feed Compa-
ny sent hay to the garbage department,
a small order only, at the rate of $26.50
ton, while the road department paid
at the rate of $27 80 for five hundred
bale order of the same brand of hay.
For barley the small department paid
$3.50 a ton and the big department
paid $3.50.

GROWING ACRIMONIOUS.

The matter in fact had begun to
grow acrimonious and various pointed
comments had begun to be heard. The
wise decision of the chairman of the
road board, however, to cut short the
dispute and do away with any further
trouble by buying in future only by
tender should settle everything salts
factorily.
The Board of Supervisors meets on
Friday night. If instructions are given
County Clerk Kalauokalani to adver-
tise for tenders at that meeting there
will be plenty of time for the dealers
to submit their prices and be prepared

fornia Feed Company, stated that all
his firm wanted in the matter was a
square deal.
i" Let the supervisors give US chance
to bid on their business. The road
department account is large one and
a good one and if we can supply the
goods in as good quality and at as low
a price as others we want our share
of the business. I have asked Mr..
Dwight to give me chance to bid
and he has promised that he would, but
he never did.
cit is only straight business propo-
sition. Compare our figures with the
others, if we are low give US the or
der, if some one else is low, give him
the order. That is all we ask for. We
are taxpayers and in business and only
ask that we be given a chance, not
crowded out without being asked even
for prices. At the present time we are
supplying the fire department ON
contract in competition with the other
firms. That ought to show that we can
give good prices. Give us square
deal and we viii not ask for anything
more.'
MACFARLANE WANTS A CHANCE.
F. w. Macfarlane, manager of the
Union Feed Company, expressed him
self in very much the same terms. lie
was asked if his firm had supplied the
road department with either hay or
grain within the pas several months.
"We have not" he said, sand the
reason why we have had no share Of
the business is because we have not
even been asked to submit prices or
given chance at the business. We
are ready to submit figures at any time.
just now we are figuring on number
of government contracts. One for the

PRICES BEING PAID.

The contention of Mr.. Dwight that
money is being saved the county by
the present manner of buying hay and
grain appears not to be borne out by
the figures on file in the Office of the
County Auditor and the Road Super
visor
According to these figures the aver
age total cost of hay and barley to
the county has not varied more than
few dollars since June 30 last, at
which time it was determined to make
the change. For July the supplies were
bought partly from the Union Feed
and partly from the California Feed
Company and the total cost to the
county was $12s2.70 Last month all
the supplies were from Hustace-Peek
Company and the total was $12e3.7S.
For the six months the figures for hay
and barley, the principal items, are:
