Strike Headquarters.
The strikers headquarters are ex-
pected to be in the Yamashiro Hotel,
on Beretania avenue, opposite Aala
Park. A large quantity of rice and
soy was on hand there yesterday to
provide for the arrival of hungry
men.
Strikers have been coming into town
in large numbers during the past
three days. At the plantations they
have been packing up. 1t had been
hoped by many that when the plant
ers saw that they were in real earnest
about leaving that they would call the
strike off by acceding to the demands.
The Strikebreakers.
There is no end to the supply of
strikebreakers. Yesterdays special
train to Waipahu and Aiea carried
about 100 men. The system of taking
on men has been systematized, and

the station long before the train is

Money for the Strikers.
Maxine and his crowd are making &
desperate effort to work up big funt

and merchants. The merchants arr
not all contributing to the fund, ant
the house servants are not so cheer
full about it as they were expected t.
be. The japanese merchants feel tina
they stand to lose considerable none!
while the strike lasts, as the countr.
stores which obtain goods from then
will now have no patrons.

The demands of the Waialua Japa
nese were presented to Manager Good
ale yesterday. They are couched Il
