Superintendent Of Public Works
Marston Campbell arrived from his
trip to Maui with the Governor and
Mr. Newell of the Reclamation Ser
vice, this morning, and immediately
started for his home for a bath and
general cleanup before starting in on
the routine work of the Office which
has been piling up during his absence.
When asked for information regarding
the trip he referred the reporter to
the Governor and Mr.. Newell, saying
that he could not give out informa-
ton which he had been only inciden-
tai in securing.
In regard to the proposed addition
and rebuilding of the courthouse at
Hilo, for which plans and specifica-
tions were drawn up and forwarded to
Mr.. Campbell after his departure for
Maui and Hawaii, Mr.. Campbell said:
after a number of talks on the
subject with people in Hilo it was de-
cided to withdraw the call for bids
for the addition and the rebuilding.
While something should be done
there, it is felt by almost all those
who are particularly concerned that
it would by no means pay to go ahead
with the repair proposition, for the
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-10-20

result would at the best be but a
makeshift and a new building will
have to come sooner or later.
THE addition was estimated to cost
in the neighborhood OF $4,000, while to
repair the main building would cost
about $1,000, and besides this new Of
flee furniture and many other things
would be needed. The cost would
mount up so high that it was decided
that it was better to try to get the
Legislature to pass an appropriation
for a new building than to patch up
the old building.
"The trouI.e over the wharf at
Mahukona has been practically settled,
though just how 1 do not care to say
at present, till the final arrangements
have been completed. We had fine
trip all the way through and enjoyed
it very much indeed"

TOWN CLEANED OUT.
The second visit of the armored
cruiser squadron has cleaned Homo.
lulu out of several commodities. Bot
tied beer is so scarce. that is of inn
ported brands, that the ships that de
sired to lay in a little for the trip
to Magdalena bay cannot get it. Eggs
are rising, too. Aboard the cruisers
and the destroyers, while in port,
where numbers of the men get togeth-
err for private mess, they are in the
habit of scrambling eight or ten eggs
in one mess for one man. In the sa-
looms there have been hundreds IN
the last three open days who have
called for beer with an egg, for gin
phiz with an egg, whiskey and egg,
sherry and two eggs, porter and eggs,
anything and eggs. The hens can't
keep up with it. The vessels of the
fleet cannot in this city today secure
the fresh vegetables they want to take
away with them and one or two OF
the cruisers, the last to be coaled, are
going away from here short of fresh
beef. They have, in many depart
ments, practically cleaned out the
town.
CRUISERS MOVE TOMORROW.
All the cruisers in port with the eX-
ception of the flagship West Virginia
will early tomorrow afternoon begin
| to move for anchorage outside the har-
Dor preparatory to sailing for Magda-
lena bay. The West Virginia will be
! the last vessel to leave the harbor,
| being the flagship, and when she takes
! the lead of the line on Thursday af-
| do
away for the target fields where they
will add more glory to their records as
the worlds greatest bulPs-eye artists.
DESTROYERS MOVE THURSDAY.
The seven destroyers in port will
leave their harbor mOorings early on
Thursday morning, followed by the
flagship of the cruisers, the West Vir-
ginia; then fleet formation occurs out
side, the destroyers pick up their
tows, and away they go.
SOLACE REMAINS FOR MAIL.
The supplyship Solace remains be-
hind here for the mail for the fleet
from San Francisco which will arrive
on Friday morning in the S. S. Ala
media. Hence she goes to San Diego,
takes on supplies for the fleet and
then rejoins the Pacific armada at
Magdalena. Then she returns from
Magdalena to San Francisco where
she will undergo repairs and will be
fitted in a proper manner to become
an actual mother to the torpedo boat
destroyers.
