TWO STEAMERS IN

Two liners may arrive on Tuesday
from San Francisco, both bringing
many passengers to Honolulu and much
freight The Pacific Mail liner Korea
is certain TO arrive during the forenoon
and the Hilonian may arrive late in
the day or evening, but possibly may
not reach here until Wednesday Both
are equipped with wireless, and the
Korea has already been heard from,

Matson line MAJ not attempt to reach

general interest to the community and
more particularly to the shipping in

to make a thorough test of the wireless

primarily TO assist the treasury de

of smuggling. its scope has greatly Wild

Aid Ships in Distress

But a more practical and important
service that the revenue cutters render
to navigation IS in aid to ships in dis
tress, ships disabled by storms or acct
dents. The brave little cutters form a
saving service on the high seas, and
have saved many vessel from ship
wreck and brought her safely into port.
Another task it performs is in the de-
struction of derelicts that lie in the
path of steamships and constitute one
of the greatest dangers of navigation.

FALLING OFF IN
EXPORTS OF FOODS

WASHINGTON, Sept. s0--A marked
falling off In the expectations Of prac-
tically all of the articles of foodstuffs
from the United states occurred dur
ing the present year. according 70 a
statement issued by the bureau of sta
tistics.
In scarcely any Of the principal
articles Of foodstuffs, II is also shown.
are the figures Of export values as
high in 1909 as in Immediately preced-
ing years, although the prices per unit
are. in most cases, higher in 1903 than
in earlier years.
The total value of all foodstuffs, in
cluding food animals. exported in the
fiscal year 1909 was but sisS, 200, 900.
against S521,00). 600 I'm 1908. The value
Of corn exports in 1903 was only $685.
10000, against s34,0000 600 in the preced-
ing year; Of wheat. S6S 100000 against
$100,0O0000 in the year preceding; Of
flour. S51.000.000 against $64,000,000 in
1913: of cattle. 900 against $50,
100000 in 1908.
The figures show that the share o.
the wheat and corn crops Of the United
States exported has been materially
less since 1908 than at any time dur
ing the twcn-y-year period immediate
ly prece ling that date.
Meat expectations also show mark
cd falling or. when compared with
