Among the most important subjects

Secretary Negel Is giving his personal
attention to conditions AZ Ellis Island
II was said at his office today that ne
will visit the New York immigrant sta
ton several times during the summer
and fall IN order that he may become
thoroughly familiar with the admins
rration of the laws, and see what rem
edles should be applied in the way Of
new legislation. He also viii visit the
stations at philadelphia and Boston. His
department IS being severely criticised
for its Interpretation Of the law which
saws that immigration officials should
be empowered to deport aliens VINO
might become public charges, There
are a number Of private charitable or
PLANTATIONS which insist that aliens
Should rot be sent back 20 their native
countries so long as these private char

come public charges
Differences of Opinion.
IN many instances there has been a
difference Of opinion on this point
Another difficulty which is being en-
countered by the department IS the re-
fusal of the immigrant TO live up 20
his promise 10 go out into the country
where ne VIII have an opportunity 10

BY buying Z ticket which will take him
70 the interior. but IL has been dis
covered that in many instances these
tickets are sold 10 'scalpers' in New
York and the immigrant remains IN

Number a Secret.

Secrecy surrounds the exact number
OF men who will participate in these
maneuvers, it being explained at militia
headquarters that a hint OF the number
would betray the strength of the Red"
or attacking. army. Therefore, IT may
be easily suTmised that General Harries
has something OF a surprise in the size
Of his lighting force in store for the
Blue army. From the number of
gUardsmen who turned up at the arm
DRY last night it might be guessed that
Loo men wearing the District uniform
will be called into action
The militia headquarters this morning
was abuzz with excitement Colonel
Smiley, the adjGtant general, was the
busiest soldier this side Of Mars. He
laid aside his work long enough, how
ever, to remark that more enthusiasm
was being shown by both officers and
men over these maueuvers than ever
before since his work with the District
guard began. He looks forward to a
big showing and a more instructive
campaign than the men have heretofore
known

LOCAL GUARDSNEN
READY TO EMBARK
Army Transports Which Will
Take Them to Arrive
This Evening.

The army transports Sumner and Nc
Clellan, on which the District National
Guard will be transported to the Mas
sachusetts coast, the scene OF this
years mimic warfare, VIII arrive here
this afternoon, and the work OF load
ing the baggage viii be pushed with
vigor. While the wireless station at
the Navy Yard had not recorded the
sighting of the transports, their pres
ence here is only a matter Of hours.
They left Norfolk late yesterday after
coon, and under ordinary circumstances
the journey to Washington only requires
about twelve hours
The Sumner probably will be locked
at the Engineers Wharf, and the Nc
cleilan at the Naval Battalion Wharf,
at the foot Of -Four -and-a-half street.
The work of loading the baggage will
be commenced late this afternoon.
Then viii follow the officers horses,
and lastly the guardsmen. The guards
men VIII not go aboard until past &
o'clock tomorrow night, consequently the

WARNING To
RACE AGAIN

Horsemen will be glad to learn that
Louis Warrens running horse Warn
ing has entirely recovered from the
bowed tendon he sustained in a race
in Hilo. The big brown horse was
fired and blistered and Is now appar-
emily all right again.
Warming will stand at stud for a
time, after which he will be put in
gentle training with the view of fit
ting him for the next race-meeting
held in the Territory
Warning is a horse of much class
and provided he can be got sound to
the races will certainly be a thorn in
the side of the best of his opponents
Indigo, the game little Hawaiian
bred, is Warnings stable companion
at honolulu ranch and will be raced
again wherever the next meeting takes
place.
Louis Warren, although racing luck
has been against him of late, intends
to stick with the game, and if pros
poets warrant it may send to the Coast
for another horse to bear his colors
when the thoroughbreds again go TO
the post

Polo appears to be on the boom and
already a great deal of talk is being
heard about the coming inter-island
tournament.
It is certain that the Maui team
holders of the inter-island champion
ship, will be given the rub of their
lives when the line up against Oahu
in the series of big games to be play
ed
The Oahu team is stronger and bet
ter mounted than was the case at the
last tournament and the players have
been putting in some excellent prac-
tice ticks of late
The presence of Sam Baldwin on
the Oahu team will strengthen that
combination inestimably.
The lineup of the Oahu team in the
inter-island tournament will IN all pro-
liability be as follows:
No /, Sam Baldwin; No. ,, Dr. Bald
win; No 3, Walter Dillingham;; No
4, John Fleming.
1t looks as if the championship
would be contested for by Oahu and
Maui alone as Kauai, although said to
possess a strong team this year, viii!

the hair on the left side of his face.

Auto Owner Wants
Ordinance Enforced

Speaking of the automobile ordin-
ance which goes into effect shortly,
E. H. Lewis said to Star man this
morning:
II noticed when | was at the Coast
that the automobile ordinances of the
various cities l passed through were
vigorously enforced and l hope that
this will be the case with the local
ordinance The ordinance, in my op-
inion, is a very good one.
"As the owner of more cars than
any other five men in the automobile
business in the Islands, | have no he
STATION in saying that it will be very
greatly to my interest to have the or
dinance enforced
"On Market street in San Francisco
cars have to be left standing on the
side of the road along which they are
going and have TO be headed in the
direction in which they are going
This prevents confusion and accidents

OAHU SECOND POLO
TEAM WANT A GAME

be unable to send her representatives
TO take part in the tournament.
Thanks to the Fifth Cavalry team
the Oahu players have had some eX-
cellent practice and the standard of
the local game has been greatly bene-
fitted thereby. The Leilehua team have
now sustained three defeats at the
hands of the Oahu Polo Club and If
three more games We're to be played
between the same teams the results
would almost certainly be the same.
1t seems that it would be good
thing to have a game between the
Fifth Cavalry and the second team OF
the Oahu Polo Club. Such a game
would be bound to be interesting and
well worth witnessing.
The Oahu Polo Club can put a strong
second team in the field, and team
that is not very fair behind the first
team in point of playing A second
team made up of the following play
ers would take a lot of beating from
the Leilehua bunch:
No. 1, George Denison No. 2, e. H
Lewis No. 8, Harold Dillingham;; No
4. Harold Castle.
