TOOK A RISK
WITH THE YACHT
THE BUILDERS SAILED HER YES
TERDAY UNDER CONDITIONS IN
VALIDATING THE INSURANCE.

It was learned this morning from Of
fetal sources that if anything had hap
pened to the yacht Hawaii yesterday
on her trip, not one cent could have
been gotten from the insurance on the
yacht, as no licensed navigator was on
board
To make the Hawaiis insurance hold
it is necessary to have man on board
in an official capacity who holds a gov
eminent license.
w. H. Mclnerny, when asked this
morning if he had anything to say
about the trial trip yesterday afternoon
refused to say anything except that he
was very much surprised at the way
the yacht was taken out without any
of the committee being informed, or
even asked, about the matter.
The yacht will start out tomorrow at
one o'clock on another trial trip.

land FOR RUBBER

Two transfers of rubber land to the
Hawaiian-American Rubber Company
were recorded this morning, one of
them being dated back almost a year.
This was the lease of a little over
sixty-eight acres of land from Bishop
Libert, of the Catholic Church. The
lease provides that an annual rental
of $50 per acre shall be paid as rent
for the first five years, $3.50 for the
second five years, and 1925 for the
remainder of the lease, which will
run thirty-fiVe years.
The rubber company agrees to plant
at least twenty acres with rubber in
the first year and at least ten acres
per year after that till forty acres
shall be planted. 1t also agrees not
to cut down any trees within ten
years of the expiration of the lease,
unless it shall be done for the bene-
fit of other trees. At any time one
acre of the land may be taken by
the Bishop for a church, damage to
be decided by arbitration. The lease
was in effect from June 10, 1907.
The other transfer to the rubber
company was one of twenty and a
half acres of land. This was owned
by Hugh Howell, president of the
company, and is transferred for the
sum of 81 and other valuable consid-
erations.
