MARINE
BIC SUMS PAID OUT
BY All. COMPANY

HonoluIans have been so accustomed
to figures based on amounts spent in
Honolulu during the old days of the
sailing ships, that they have failed to
grasp the fact that very large amounts
are paid out by the big steamers that
call here. 1t is the custom to say, 1t s
too bad that the sailing vessels have
been put out of business by the big
stay here a month or more, pay off the
men here, buy nearly all their supplies,
and they left large sums of money
around town. Now the steamers only
stop off here a few days and don't leave
any money
1t might surprise these Honolulans
TO learn that the visit of one of the big
American-Hawaiian freighters for about
eight days means that between $4,000
and $4,000 cash is left behind and when
half a dozen or even eight big freight
ers of that one company are here during
a month, that means an aggregate OF
about $4,000 spent here.
For instance a big freighter comes in
with a few thousand tons of general
cargo. About 125 stevedores are en-
ployed at an average of 81 per day Of
nine hours. That means $3.50 a day for
stevedores alone, and in addition there
are clerks, checkers, watchmen, etc. II
stevedore works at night he gets
double pay and on Sundays time and a
half. One hundred and twenty five
stevederes working about ten days, for
example, run up stevedoring bill of
$500. If the vessel is Clipped the bill
may be anywhere from 5000 to $500
more Then there is the wharfage COM
pany which has to be paid rent or
wharfage rates. The pilot fee is adj
ditional Water is extra. The vessels
take on beef supplies here, together with
fresh vegetables and fruits. Beef could
be carried from San Francisco just as
well, but the American-Hawaiian com
pany has adopted policy of purchasing
here. There are dozen odds and ends
of expenditures.
If the American Hawaiian company
alone makes expenditures of about $4O,-
900 per month, or about half million
year, the aggregate spent by other
companies including the Matson Navi-
cation company, the Oceanic company,
the oil-cafgo steamer companies, etc.,
run the aggregate up quite high.
The men of these big steamers gen.
orally receive a. portion of their wages
here-advances made by the captains
and much of it is spent here.

 ~1HERE was but little sleep fin the chateau that night. The charity ball was forcotten or, 0 if recalled at all. only in con nection with the thought of what 1t came so near to costing It's promoters.
 No further disturbances occurred A strict watch was preserved: the pie turesque rawbridge was lifted and there were lights on the terrace and gal leries. men slept within easy reach of their weapons. The siege had begun tn earnest. Men had been slain, and their blood was crying out for venge- ance: the voice of justice was lost in the clamorings of rage.
 The princess was quite serene. She lightly announced that the present state of affairs was no worse than that which she was accustomed to at home. The court of Rapp-Thorberg was ever in state of unrest. despite it's outward suggestion of security. Outbreaks were common among the

MARQUETTE is AMBITIOUS.
Success on Gridiron Prompts College
to Seek Baseball Honors.

Milwaukee, Wis, Jan 6.-The most
ambitious baseball schedule in the
history of Marquette university is
soon to be completed, as Manager
Carroll has begun putting the finish
ing touches on his preparations for
the spring games. The Marquette
men will, it i planned, take a long
trip through the central west playing
such universities as Minnesota, Chi
cago. Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Pur-
due and Notre Dame Several of
these universities have already re-
sponded favorably to the Marquette
overtures, and there is little doubt
that all will grant Marquette a game.
The only question is so arranging
the dates that the Marquette men can
play all of the schools on one trip.
The team ha9 in other years kept
practically within the limits of this
state, but the success of the football
team in its endeavors to make a cred
liable showing against the stars of the
football world has emboldened the
wielders of the hickory stick to try
game, all that is unsettled being the
date. Other schools are expected to
be heard from as soon as the mana
gers have an opportunity to clean up

DEFENSE SUFFERS
IN HAMS TRIAL
EXPLANATION OF WHEREABOUTS
ON AUGUST IS PROVES AN
MOVING TO WITNESS.

Flushing N. Y, Jan. G.-NeW lights
were thrown on the relationships of
William E. Annis and Mrs. Claudia
Hams in the trial of Thornton j.
Hams Yesterday, when the defendant,
under examination, declared that sew
eral years ago, in Marblenead, Mass,
he became aware that Annis and Mrs.
Hams had stopped at the same hotel.
Questioned by Justice Crane, Thorn
ton Hams said that he never spoke
of the relations between Mrs. Hain5
and Annis to Captain Hams, and had
remained silent on the matter until
last spring.
The fabric of the defense's case was
badly torn when Thornton Hams, I'M
der sharp cross-examination by the
states attorney, made many damag-
ing admissions.
Thornton Hams could not say when
at the Waldorf, August Is, on his way to
Bay Side why he had not stepped
acrOs; the street to JespersOns office
to find out where his brother was, in
stead of going to the yacht club with
only an impression that he might be
there. The defendant said he did
not know whether Captain Hams had
time enough to purchase a revolver
when he fell behind Weaver and him
self on the way up Broadway, August
IS.
The cross-examination was still in
progress when court adjourned until
today.

PITIFUL TALES

CAsTRO's PRISONERS RELEASED
-REVEAL WICkEDNESS OF
DEPOSED PRESIDENT.

New York, Jan. "details of the
tNlease of more than a score of Cas-
tro s political prisoners, their pitiable
condition and the tales of the treat
ment they had received in the bar
barious dungeons of Fort San Carlosi
on an island off Maracaibo, were
brought here yesterday by passengers
who arrived on the steamer Zulia, the
ship that carried the prisoners from
the fort to Laguaira.
The prisoners, 81 in number, were
men of the best families in Venezuela.
They were all that remained OF the
droves of prisoners sent to the fort
or political rea@Ons by Castro during
his term of power. Tneir JeIiverance
came because of Castros overthrow.
The prisoners said that they subsisted
on such fish as could be caught Off the
shore and cooked by themselves as
we'll as they could. Communication
with relatives and friends, or with
any one in the outside world, was de-
MED them, and they had no tidings of
even their families until their release
came. Two prisoners who remained
inseparable companions on the ship,
told of having been chained together
for months to the same post, and so
close together that when either want
ed to move his fettered leg he gave
the other man warning. Otherwise
the chain would chafe sore spots
where the letters had bit into the
flesh. There were fearful scenes at
Laguaira where the prisoners were
met by their familie5 and friends.

which will permit a public service
company to establish a minimum
charge for service was endorsed by
the city council when the draft Of
such bill was submitted by the city
attorney. The council authorized an
appropriation for the. purpose Of send
ing out circulars and communicating
with other cities in an effort to Sc
cure support for the bill which will
be presented to the legislature and
personal letter will be forwarded to
Gov. Davidson asking his support Of
the measure The movement results
from the recent decision of the rail

gas company here to install a service
charge, it being believed by the coun-
ell that with minimum charge the.
corporation will be satisfied without
a service charge.
