reservation. having completed 700
foot spur from its main track beyond
Puuloa to the reservation edge, or
where the main entrance to the Pearl
Harbor reservation has been located
This will enable the Hawaiian Dredg
ing Company to land its materials and
supplies and equipment close to its
own working localities.
Local contractors have been in con.
sultation recently with Captain Parks,
engineer officer at the naval station, to
ascertain the navy's requirements as
to materials for the drydock, wharves,
seawalls, etc. The specifications for
many of the utilities at Pearl Harbor
are out and in the hands of local con.
tractors, and the sites for wharves aid
seawal have been definitely chosen
The contractors want to know Just how
much local material can be used, SC
that they may have a proper under
standing in making bids. In a former
time the contractors presented bids for
naval work and then found out that
the navy people wanted materials
which would have to be procured in
Pennsylvania or Michigan, an impossi
bility to them according to the bids
they had made. 1t is likely that much
of the local material will be permitted
in construction work at the naval sta
tion.
The proposed spur from the WahiawG
railway track to the cavalry canton
ment at Leilehua may not be built ye
awhile. The railroad company hai
made its offers and even gone NOR,
than half way, but the army people
under present conditions, are unable t.
make any arrangements, and the haul
ing of materials will have to be don,
bv teams. Had it been possible for tn,
army people to make arrangements TO
the spur, the roaa would have beer
built in very short time and the loni
delays attendant upon teaming woul,
have been avoided and the work ex
pedited. However, the spur will b.
built, but later on.
Several hundred men are engaged oil
the cavalry cantonment, and it is ex
pected 'that the temporary building
will be in readiness when the Fiftl
Cavalry troopers and mounts arriv
next week.

After the arrival of the Pacific Mail
steamship Siberia from San Francisco
on January Is, there win be general
movement toward Pearl Harbor of
dredging men, contractors, and naval
officials, and the millions Of dollars APP.
propriated for the development of the
naval base will be drawn upon for ac-
tual work. Aboard the Siberia will be
Walter +. Dillingham; of the Hawaiian
Dredging Company, to which was
awarded the contract for the dredging
of Pearl Harbor's channel and the APP
proaches to the sites for the drydoek,
wharves, etc.
Local representatives of the Ha.
waiian Dredging Company have receiv-
ed very little detailed information from
Mr., Dillingham; to his plans for con
Quoting the work, but they are of the
opinion that as the United States gov
eminent is in such a hurry that the
contractor will lose no time in starting
1t is understood that Mr.. Dillingham;
and George Denison of the Oahu Rail
way Company have acquired the best
and most modern dredging parapher
MALTA, and this will be put on the
outside work-that is, for the outer
channel and entrance to the channel
This task will be the most difficult
part of the contract, as the dredgers
will be exposed to all sorts of weather
including possible konas, heavy swell'
and steady trade winds. The materia
dredged out will be difficult to trans
port to the locality approved as {
dumping ground. The contractors wht
did the first dredging job-on the chan
mel entrance failed to accomplish tn,
work, and after considerable loss, Wal
ter Dillingham; took hold and complete,
the job satisfactorily. 1t is understood
also, that Walter Dillingham; will per
sonally look after the outer dredging
The inner dredging will be easier
and, although considerable blastin,
may have to be done, the entire inne
work will be no more difficult than thu

SICILY CALAMITY WILL
SEND TOURISTS HERE

One effect of the great calamity which
has befallen Italy will be that many
American tourists who make the Medi-
terranean trips nearly every winted will
this year stay out Of the danger zone
and many of them will probably take
their trips either to Hawaii, Florida or
Southern California. If there were
ships enough to carry them, the tourists
who would come here during the next
few months would be very, very many
more than Hawaii has ever before had.
This is the opinion of H. p. Wood,
secretary of the Promotion Committee,
who keeps in touch with the tourist
movements on the mainland and speaks
from knowledge.
"The winter of the San Francisco
earthquake, Hawaii suffered, many PEG.
city long enough to take the steamer
for Honolulu. Now, in .ie same way,
many tourists will be afraid to. go to
Southern Europe, but will seek some
other winter resort. Florida will get
many, Southern California should get
many and Hawaii, if we had the steam
ship service, would certainly get many.
"We are now prominently before the
world. The mentions we have received
in Congress, the naval and military
movements, the attention being given
now generally to the Pacific, all these
things have advertised us. We will get
the people, as many as we can accommo-
date with the steamship service we
have. "

Mayor Fern


Editor Advertiser.-It is a great pity
that Mayor Fern is taking the course
which he has so far pursued.
The voters of the county elected six
Republican Supervisors and one Demo
,crat; and Democrat for Mayor. The
Mayor, acting under dangerous advice,
has attempted to control the county
government without regard to the
judgment or control of the Board of
Supervisors. He can not obtain con-
troll by following the course thus far
mapped out for him; but if he con-
tinues along the lines which he has so
far been persuaded to pursue, he will
do much to injure the development of
popular government in Hawaii and in
jure the native Hawaiians.
Mayor Fern can yet do himself
credit and do much for his own people
if he will follow his own good judg-
ment and geek the advice of those who
desire the best good of Hawaii and the
Hawaiian people.

.PR|zEF|GHTER
IS INDICTED

Antoine Silva, who is commonly known
as the "Punchbowl Demon prize
fighter of some local fame, was indict-
ed by the Federal Grand Jury yester-
day afternoon, and was Immediately
placed under arrest on bench war
rant. The charge against Silva is
smuggling.
For several months previous to the
time Silva was first apprehended, the
customs officials were convinced, that
smuggling from the ships arriving here
from the Orient was going on. Finally
Silva was caught in the act by In
spector Dick Young. He had gone on
board the ship, one of the Pacific Mail
line, apparently looking for work as
stevedore, where he was given a
quantity of peculiar Chinese liquor.
This was dropped over the stern of the
liner into small boat, in which the
stuff was taken over to the Inter.Is.
land wharf.
Here it was that Inspector Young
caught the alleged smuggler and took
him, as well as one other companion,
into custody. Later developments
showed that the companion of Silva in
his illegal enterprise had been forced
to assist in the work through threats
of dire things made by the latter. He
was a recent arrival, knowing but lit,
tie of the ways and customs of the
country, and, on account of the show
ing he made in the preliminary exam
nation, was allowed to so free.
United States District Attorney
Breckons is convinced that Silva is
one of the ringleaders of an organized
gang of smugglers. According to the
officials, they have probably discon
tinued the perilous work until Silva 4
| fate is determined. Evidence in the
case of the ex-pugilist pointed to the
fact that most of the goods smuggled
into the country was sold to the Chi
nese. 1t was also shown beyond any
doubt that Silva had confederates OF
board the ship.
The Indictment of Silva was the only
one brought in by the Grand Jury yes
terday afternoon. 1t is probable thai
the inquisitorial body will meet this
morning and again bring in partia
report.

CITY AUDITOR
IN MAELSTROM

There may be trouble ahead for
County Auditor Bicknell because OF
the opinion of County Attorney Cath
Nart, that all garnishees of employees
of the county lapsed at 10 O'Clock

ion was TO the effect that all pending
garnishments became null and void

ence of the County of Oahu.
However, attorneys prepared new
garnishee papers on employees holding

SALVAGE FOR

(From wednesday E Advertiser,

Six thousand dollars Is the sum
(which Judge Dole has allowed the In.
Island Steam Navigation Company
for salving the Japanese freighter Chi
usa Maru, which grounded here in the
early morning of November 3, 1906.
The decision of the court was read the
other day. Along with the sum of
$4,000 which the Togo Kisen Kaisna
company, owners of the vessel, will
have to pay, the costs of court, which
Twill not he inconsiderable, were assess.
led against them.
Not the least interesting feature of
the case lies in the fact that the Chi.
Ausa Maru ran into storm about seven
months ago and was foundered off the
+ coast of China. She is now lying at
the bottom of the sea. 1t is case
pf "paying for dead horse" with the
royo Kisen Kaisha Company.
The Chiusa Maru, in approaching the
1larbor of Honolulu from Kobe, Japan,
grounded her bow little southeast
IF the entrance to the harbor. The
nter-Island boat Ke Au Hou, coming
n from Kauai, offered it's services,
which were accepted on the understand
ng that the compensation should be
arranged afterwards. A hawser was
aiken out to the Ke Au Hou and she
began to pull dead astern.
A short time later, the Khan, COM
ng into the harbor from Hawaii, land
d her passengers and-returned to the
ssistance of the stranded vessel. The
wo Inter.Island boats kept up the
train on their hawsers from early
morning until shortly after one o clock
n the afternoon, when the Maru float
d off The United States revenue cut,
er Manning also assisted (for a short
ime) in pulling the Japanese freighteI
fl.
The Inter.Island Steam Navigation
Company brought a libel for salvage in
he sum of $4,000, alleging that the
alue of the Chiusa Maru was $150000
err cargo $65,0O0, and that freight
money was earned in the sum of $4,000
t was also alleged in the libel that
he Kinau, valued at 100000, and the
Se Au Hou, stated to be worth $45, 900
Fere in great peril during the time
hey were salving the vessel owing to
ne heavy swell that was running shore
ard.
e In rendering his decision, Judge Dole
lkes occasion to give high praise tc
ne masters of the Inter-Island boats
lying as follows: "The conduct OF
be masters of the Ke Au Hou and XII
iu was highly creditable and stands
marked contrast to that of the mas
r of the Fearless, which arrived first

cause of his attempt to take advan
gel of ship in distress, and most un
sinesslike because no court of admir-
ty would sustain an unconscionable
ntract forced on ship under sucf
rcumstances.
Judge Dole also compounded the prac
be of bringing the crews into the ap
cations for salvage compensation. He
lted it as his belief that they de
rved extra compensation and there
re the award was made to include il
benefits reasonable proportion tc
