Red Cross Society Will Attempt
to Centralize Forces to
Oppose White Plague.
THE CAMPAIGN Is LAUNCHED
Judge Dole Expresses Himself
as Desiring to See
Better Work.
cFrom Saturdays Advertiser,

At meeting of the Red Cross Society
for the Department of Hawaii yester-
day afternoon held in the federal court
room in the judiciary building, an i'm
portant and comprehensive movement
was launched without any seeming en-
thusiasm on the part of the greater
number of the members.
The move, which has been discussed
for some time, is the organization of
an Tuberculosis Central Commit
tee to be composed of representatives
of all charitable, quasi.charitable and
civic organizations in the city. The
motion that started this movement call.
ed for the passing of recommendation
of the executive committee favoring
the institution of more cooperative
work among these societies and with the
exception Of President Dole, who pre-.
sided, and a few of the best informed
members, there was no discussion of the
matter.
Work for the relief of tuberculosis
victims has been going on in desul-
tory sort of way for some time without
any attempt at cooperation on the part
of the societies that essayed to relieve
the evil. Among those organizations
who will be requested to consider the
organization of central committee are
the Territorial Board of Health, Medi-
cal Association of Hawaii, Red Cross
Society, College Club, Men s Club of
st. Andrews IS Parish, Men s Club of the
Central Union Church, Palama Settle
ment, Leahi Home and others. The
function of the committee when organ
lied will be advisory.
The motion that was presented to
turn over all the present available
funds to the outdoor tuberculosis set
tlement was amended to read ga part, -
as it was not considered advisable to
give all the funds in case other and
unexpected need was found for them
in the future.
Judge Dole, president of the local
department of the society, seemed to
be unsatisfed with its work or the in.
terest displayed in it by the members.
| He stated that at the next annual meet.
ing, which will take place the first
| Tuesday in November, more compre
hensive organization will be effected and
committees appointed, and also that he
desired to see the society do more il
the future than they have been doing
At the opening of the meeting, thu
society voted its approval of the ap
preparation made by the executive com
nittee for the relief of the Koni
typhoid epidemic.

GOOD SMOKES HAVE TO
GO BACK UNENJOYED

is the source of bitter contention be-
tween the government and the United
Cigar Company, and is also the bone
of contention between the government
and local importers. The government
has construed the meaning of "di-
rect" in this instance, to be that
cigar shipments should be made in one
ship. That is, Honolulu importer
sends to Manila for a bill of goods.
The Manila exporter puts them on
board vessel which will touch at Ho-
nolulu, although stopping at many
ports between. That is called direct
shipment If the exporter puts them
aboard steamer for Hongkong, and
they are transhipped 10 another vessel
at that port for dispatch to Honolulu
then that is not "direct" ship
ment.
The eighty thousand cigars to be
returned to Manila arrived here in al
least two vessels, the one which tool
them first to Hongkong, and the sec
ond which brought them to Honolulu

KOREA REPORTS

Eight O'clock Last Night.
Weather Is Good.
(From Mondays Advertiser.)

At S clock last night Kahulu wire
less station received an aerogram from
the Pacific Mail S. S. Korea, which is
en- route from San Francisco for Ho-
nolulu, giving her position as sS4 miles
off port and in latitude 1920 NJ, long
itude l44:25 w. The captain of tSe
steamship reports that n fresh north
west breeze is blowing and the vessel
is coming along in a moderate sea and
swell.
On Saturday night about the same
hour, the Korea was 1897 miles of
port, and her run for the twenty.four
hours up to last night was about 35S
miles. The Hilonian, slower boat,
has probably dropped considerably
astern of the Pacific Mailer, although
on Saturday evening they were but
fifteen miles apart.
The fact that the Korea has been
in wireless touch with Honolulu al
most from the day she started indi
Gates that she is in daily touch witt
the California coast also, and that hel
passengers are kept supplied with {
daily budget of worlds news. Tha
the initial experiment in wireless OF

While nearly three hundred thousand
Manila cigars arrived on the S. S.
Siberia Thursday free of duty, and
therefore to be disposed of to local
consumers at the lowest price asked in
years, nearly eighty thousand are to
be returned to Manila in the s. s..
Korea, sailing next week.
The eighty thousand represent two
or three shipments which arrived here
about last April and have been held
in bond ever since, pending disposi-
tion of question relating TO their
entry here free of duty. 1t seems that
when the now tariff law was planned,
one paragraph relating to shipments
of cigars from the Philippines re-
quircd that they should be shipped in
an American bottom, There was op
position to this plan, and it was
changed to read so that such cgar'
should be shipped direct from Manila
to the port of destination.

WILL INSTALL
HIGH-LIFT PUMP
And Kaimuki Reservoir Is to
Be Constructed Very
Soon.
CAMPBELL CALLS FOR BIDS
New Artesian Wells to Be Bored
at the Beretania
Station.
AMPBELL CALLS FOR BIDS

The proposed new Kaimuki reser
voir is at last to be built.
The high-lift pump that for many
years has been lying idle because OF
lack of funds to put it in place
where it would be any good is at last
to be installed.
Two new artesian wells, of about
600 feet depth, are to be bored at the
Beretania pumping station.
These three important announce
ments were made late last night by
Supt. Marston Campbell. Though they
have been hoped for, they come unex
pectedly, but are none the less wei
come for that. Superintendent Camp
bell states that he has called for bids
for the three projects, and if the bids
to be received are reasonable and
within the means at the disposal OF
the department, the work will be com.
menced in very short time, proba.
bly, considerably before the end of the
year.
For years Kaimuki has been crying
for water, and as the number of resi-
dents in that section of the city has
increased, the cry has swelled in vol
ume. But there has appeared no way
to give them water, for legislatures
have refused consistently to appropri.
ate funds for the work, and governors
have refused to allow the money to
be spent out of loan fund.
But now Kaimuki is to have water
for the much.needed reservoir is to be
constructed. The construction of this
public utility will in time largely pay
for itself, for the old reservoir leaks
to such an extent that the money
value of the lost water is very con
siderable.
And the installation of the high-lift
pump and the boring of the two new
artesian wells will go far toward rem
edying the present lamentable short
age of water throughout certain sec
tions of the city.
These proposed extensions of the
present waterworks system are to b'
| paid for out of the revenues of the
water and sewer systems. Marstor
Campbell estimates that by the end o.
the year there will be surplus from
| these sources of about $4,000. Th'
revenues for next year will also be
come available at the same time, St
he figures that by the time any none,
for the new projects is needed, it vii
be on hand.
The revenues from the water an
sewer rates for this year to date hav
been $4,000, and Mr.. Campbell est
mates that by January l the colleC
tions will reach $4,000, while the tota
expenditures will not be much in eS
cess of $4,000. The systems are
therefore, more than paying for them
selves.
The high-lift pump was bought S
long ago that most people have fol
gotten when it was. But all thes
years it has been lying idle. 1t noV
remains to see what its actual work
ing value is.

KOREA DUE WEDNESDAY.

According to wireless message re-.
ceived last night at nine clock from
the Pacific Mail steamship Korea, by
Operator Maddams of the Kahuku sta
tion, the liner will not arrive here until
Wednesday morning This is due to
the delay incident to the vessel being
fogbound just after leaving the Golden
Gate and to the additional fact that
last night, when she was 1887 miles
distant from Honolulu, the vessel was
blowing through a heavy sea and swell
and was experiencing strong south
east wind. Operator Maddams alsC
heard from the Hilonian about the
same time. She was l222 miles out.

Arrangements have peen completed
whereby the Russian immigrants who
have been passed through the imm-
grafton station will go today by spe-
cial steamer to the islands of Kauai,
Maui and Hawaii. The steamer Mauna
Kea may be chartered to carry fami-
lies to Mani and Hawaii, and the Ke
Au Hou will carry those intended for
Kauai, both leaving about noon, or as
soon thereafter as possible. The i'm
migrants have divided themselves as
follows:
Ten families to olaa plantation, Ha-
waii.
Six families to Waiakea plantation,
Hawaii.
Nineteen families to Kahului, Maui.
Sixteen families to Makaweli plan
tation, Kauai.
Passed All But Eight.
Late yesterday afternoon the special
board of inquiry sitting at the United
States immigration station to consider
the Russian immigrant cases concluded
its work, and, although the board has
not yet made final report, it enabled
Inspector Raymond @. Brown to get to
work with a preliminary examination
of the immigrants. By six o clock last
evening all but eight had been passed
and permitted to land as desirable i'm
migrants, and they were Immediately
given their freedom. They left the sta
tion and many went up town to take
in the sights, which were as strange to
them as they themselves are to local
residents.
The eight who were held will be given
another examination this morning and
will be either rejected and returned to
Manchuria or admitted along with the
Others. The inspector was not entirely
satisfied with their answers, but fur
ther inquiry may straighten out the
kinks. Mr.. Brown, while willing to aid
the immigration work, is alec required
to make rigid examination into tn,
qualifications of every person presented
before him for entry into the Islands
ana the regulations must be CAREFUL
regarded throughout.
Anarchist Not Incompetent.
The man whom Mr.. Brown detaine
on Thursday as undesirable and WHOM
he may order deported is rank an
archist, and not at all crazy, as ha
been said of him. Mr.. Brown state
last evening that the man IS attitud
was that of defiant unbeliever i
