To MARKET FRESH
PINES ON THE COAST

The Honolulu Pineapple Co. new
company consisting of several fruit
growers of this Island. has been form
ed for the purpose of marketing fresh
fruit on the mainland 1t has long
been evident to the growers here that
consigning their fruit to commission
houses on the mainland was not salts
factory, and that something in the
shape Of an organization or associa-
ton consisting of the growers should
be formed to handle their product.
Realizing the possibility of there be-
ing more fruit this year than the can
neries would care to handle, the Ho-
nolulu Pineapple Co. is prepared to
undertake the duties of an organiza-
ton in the marketing of fresh fruit
for others as well as for themselves. It
is the intention of this company to
have two of its members who are prae-
teal pineapple men on the mainland
during the entire fruit season. These
representatives will be in daily touch
with the markets. and by so doing will
be able To realize tue pest possible
prices for fruit.
F. f. Haley, one Of the members of
this company. who has spent the win
ter on the mainland to study condi-
tons of fresh fruit shipments, as well
as to make the best possible business
connections, has obtained valuable in
formation on the shipping and market
ing of fresh pines on the mainland
and the interior of the United States
and Canada.
The Honolulu Pineapple Co. purpose
to give those who ship through them
thes benefit of their knowledge of pack
ing and shipping, so as to minimize
the possibility of loss, and can assure
the small growers better returns for
their fruit than they could realize by
individually consigning.

rudely disturbed by being told the

CAPT. MILLER
BUILDS CANAL
One Of Morristown's Disting-
uished Citizens Accepts a
Responsible Position.
HEAD OF THE CAPE COD CANAL

Captain J. w. Miller, president
and general manager of the New Eng
land Navigation company, is about to
leave that company to accept the post
of director and .vice-president of the
Cape Cod Canal Construction com pany,
to which he has just been elected
Captain Miller will be in charge of
the construction and operation of the
canal. When seen at his Office on the
Fall River Line pier Thursday, Cap
tain Miller said:
" | feel honored to be selected for
this responsible position, as the Cape
Cod Canal is great undertaking, one
of national and international impor-
tance. 1t is the first of the interior
waterways on this coast to be begun.
1t is great factor in the national de-
fence, as well as new channel by
which vessels may avoid the perils of
navigation in passing over Nantucket's
dangerous shoals. 1t will, therefore.
become of incalculable value to COM
merce, shortening, as it does, the trip
to Boston by about one hundred miles.
1t is also great pleasure to be con-
nected with Mr.. Belmonts in such an
enterprise, and one in which he will
doubtless exercise the same excellent
qualities which resulted so success
fully in the construction of the New
York subways. The contracts for the
canal are all let, and the work on the
breakwater is already under way"
Captain Miller's business associates
and his friends in the navy and in the
naval militia, of which he was one Of
the organizers and it's commander for
many years, were particularly pleased
to hear Of his appointment, for which,
they declare, he is specially fitted by
his long experience. He has been an
officer of the Sound lines, now con
trolled by the New York, New Haven
8 Hartford Railroad company, for
twenty-three years. His grandfather
was the originator of the Morris Canal
and Captain Miller was engaged ir
the original canal surveys at Nicara-
qua. Subsequently he became secre
tary of the commission appointed by
General Grant. He left the navy ir
1881 and went to Kansas, where hi
built some two hundred miles of rail
road.
