AMERICA MARUS
RATS NOT DEAD
In Fact Rodents Were So Lively
That Quarantine Rules May
Be Changed.

As result of the publication of
story in Thursday morning Is Advertiser
in regard to rats seen leaving the Togo
Kisen Kaisha America Maru, now dis
charging cargo from the nitrate ports
of South America at Hackfeld wharf,
there is a strong probability that the
federal government may make new
ruling in regard to the fumigation of
ships coming here from South American
ports. Passed Assistant Surgeon Ramus
of the United States Marine Hospital
Service yesterday started an investiga-
ton which may result in radical action
being taken by the quarantine officials.
Additional information gathered yes.
terday indicates that the rats were very
much in evidence during the voyage
from South America here, and that one
of the ships men even tanned couple
during the long journey. Furthermore,
several persons are said to have seen
the rodents leaving the ship, and others
| tell of having noticed them playfully
lueHnSclNtS dpOub the NeoocA,
both before and after she reached her
anchorage.
Doctor Ramus visited the America
Maru yesterday and made very thor
ough investigation of the circumstances.
He will probably make report to
Washington and the federal authorities
will doubtless issue orders which will
render impossible a repetition of the
| trouble.
Under the regulations at present in
force, fumigation certificate from the
| officers of the last South American port
touched has been all that local quaran-
tine officers have demanded. 1t is very
probable, however, that this regulation
may be changed and that henceforth
all ships coming from South American
ports may be required to undergo a
thorough fumigation at the hands OF
the local officials before being allowed
to dock.
There was some trouble when the
America Maru reached here owing to
the fact that her certificate of fumiga-
ton from the last South American port
touched could not be found. The tangle
was Strengthened out, however, and the
vessel was granted permission to dock
AS tine nitrate ports OF South Amer
lea have, in times past, been visited by
plague epidemics, the quarantine of
ficials are very particular about the
Immigration for rats of all vessels com
ing from there, and the discovery thai
Ia considerable quantity of rodents ar
rived by the America Maru is causing
no little concern.
The local firm to which the cargt
of the America Maru was consigned il
doing everything in its power to assis
; the quarantine officials in enforcing tn,
, regulations relative to fumigation.

HONOLULU BOY DESIGNED
FLORAL PARADE POSTER

The floral parade posters, postal
cards and stickers which are being dis
tributed from the promotion committee
rooms, are printed from the design of
Harry Mist of Dresden, Germany. Mr..
Mist is Honolulu boy who mas pursued
his art studies in Germany for several
years. His design for a floral parade
poster was accepted by the promotion
committee. Mr.. Mist made several
changes in the poster design as origin
ally submitted and it was decided that
the poster could best be produced under
the artists own supervision in Dresden.
In this manner not only the posters
were printed, but the postal cards and
stickers, and from there were mailed
to all parts of Europe, thus saving the
promotion committee considerable in
the way of duties. The posters and
cards were also sent all over the Uni
ted States and the large stock now on
hand at the promotion rooms are for
| the use of Honolulans who may wish
to encourage interest in the coming
parade among their friends on the
mainland The stickers are affixed to
! envelopes in the same manner as the
Red Cross stamps.

YEAR NINETEEN
NINE WAS GOOD
TO CAMPBELL

Superintendent of Public Works
Marston Campbell wound up the old
year yesterday afternoon by shaking
hands with himself and trying to pat
himself on the back On account of the
large amount of work accomplished
during the year by his department and
the excellent way the department has
come out of the trials and tribulations
that have beset it.
"We're away ahead of the game, :"
said Mr.. Campbell. We've got the
Nuuanu dam practically off our hands,
the Kula pipeline is under way, the
dredging operations are proceeding
rapidly. We have a crew of map
makers down from the Coast to map
the Territory; the Kappa lots are dis
posed of; the public lands are being
apportioned to bona fide homesteaders
as fast as possible; a photographic sur
vev of the Territory has been begun
and we've collected $4,000 in water
rates and haven't a delinquent on the
books l guess that's going some, Ell 2
"And we've collected $4,000 in
sewer rates, although our estimates at
the beginning of the year were but
$26, 669.46. We have had the largest
six-months collections of water rates
in the history of the department. 1t
has been a mighty good year and I am
as happy as a clam at high tide.
"Well, SO long. III see you next
year''

.FILlPINOS WILL
GO TO HAWAII

The trouble that arose Friday be.
tween the new Filipino immigrants
and Mr.. Mead, the employee of the
sugar planters association, shortly af-
ter the arrival of the little brown men
from Manila, appears to have been set
tied, satisfactorily or otherwise. At
least, this is the inference from the
fact that there were no complaints by
the immigrants yesterday and from the
additional fact that it is reported that
they are to 60 to Hawaii today to work
on the Naalehu and Pahala plantations.
The trouble threatened for time
to result in a serious breach between
the labor bureau of the planters as.
ISOLATION and the territorial govern
ment, but the labor bureau appears to
have recognized in time that if it en-
gagged in a conflict with the govern
ment officials, it would be playing n
losing game, and the employees of that
bureau experienced change of heart
and attitude.

PORTO R|CANS SEE
PRESIDENT TAFT
Want Eiuht-Hour Day and Help
From MerciIessness of
Sugar Trust

WASHINGTON, December 10
With more than 100000 agricultural
and industrial workers. including men,
women and children, in Porto Rico de-
scribed as being in an economical and
socially deplorable condition, repre-
sentatives of organized labor in that
island today appealed to President Taft
for the amelioration of the condition
of the laboring people there. Headed
by Santiago Iglesias, a delegate from
the Free Federation of Workingmen of
Porto Rico. committee representing
that organization, called upon Presi-
dent Taft at the White House and laid
before him voluminous petition set
ting forth the alleged conditions. A
somewhat similar representation was
made by delegation from Porto Rico
to President Roosevelt about two years
ago, when, it set forth, Mr.. Roosevelt
promised to do what he could to cause
change for the better. No improve
| ment has been brought about, how
ever, it is declared.
The petitioners seek an increase in
the wage scale, reileI from tne MGR
cilessness" of the so-called sugar trust
increased educational facilities for the
children of working men, an improve
ment of the Extremely bad" san1
ta-y conditions, the inspection of fac
tories and workshops, the abolition Of
convict labor, prohibition of the EN-
| ployment of children under fourteen
years of age in factories, the applica
ton of the eight-hour and the employ
ers' liability act and citizenship TO
Porto Ricans.
The charge is made that the legisla
tive assembly dominated by the Union
list party, has committed itself agains
| the enactment of labor laws to better
the conditions of working men in tina
island, while capital is afforded ever,
opportunity to utilize it's resources an'
encroaching power to the detriment o.
the laboring classes.
The Porto Rican delegates presented
a petition to the President asking hin
to use his influence to secure better la
Dor conditions in that Island. The.
are anxious for an eight-hour law, an
for the abolition of convict labor i
competition with union labor.

MAP MAKERS ARE
NOW M|L|T|AMEN
Eleven Topographists Join the
National Guard of the Ter
ritory of Hawaii.

Through the arrival last week of the
eleven topographists who came on the
Mongolia to map the Territory of Ha-
wall, the National Guard of the Ter
ritory has been increased by cap
tain, sergeant major and eleven high
privates. The map makers have all
Joined the organized militia.
Map makers, when they go out to
make maps need tents and khaki
trousers and campaign hats and other
things. The uniform and equipment
of the National Guard includes khaki
trousers and tents and campaign hats.
Which accounts for the sudden access
sion to the ranks of the National
Guard.
For Marston Campbell, superintend-
ent of public works, is himself a major
on the Governors staff, and he knows
all about such things. And SO, when
the map makers arrived, he did lit
tie missionary work, and as conse'
quence, the topographists all agreed tc
enlist in the National Guard of Ha
wall. Chief Birdseye is captain, one
is sergeant major and the rest are
privates.
OF course, whenever they finish theil
map making and leave the Territory
they will ask for and get their dis
charges. But for the present, even
though they never shoulder rife oil
march in column of tours, they are full
fiedged National Guardsmen.

Streets Are Turned Into Rivers
and Business Is Seriously
Interfered With.
CAR SERVICE DEMORALIzED
Rain PourS Down in Torrents for
Thirty-Six Hours Without
Any Cessation.
(By Associated Press.)

LOS ANGELES, January 2.-This
city has just passed through the worst
storm known in years. Torrential rains
fell and the entire country was flooded.
For thirty-six hours the downpour con.
tinued and great havoc was wrought.
The southern part of this city is all
under water. The Jefferson street dis.
trict is flooded and the car service is
demoralized. Through the main thor
oughfares of the business section, water
ran in torrents during the storm. Side
walks were several inches under water
and storekeepers were forced to erect
barriers of sandbags to keep the food
out of their places of business.
Suburban traffic over the lines of the
Pacific Electric and Los Angeles-Pacific
railway companies is demoralized. The
car service between this city and Pa
sadena was seriously upset for time
and persons living in suburban towns
have found great difficulty in getting
to and from their homes.
The water in the Arroyo Seco is rush
ing down in mad torrents and the dam
above Pasadena is submerged The
Los Angeles river, which under normal
condition is but tiny stream, now is
a roaring food.
Orchards throughout the San Gabriel
and La Habra valleys We're flooded,
though no serious damage resulted.
Overland train schedules have been
seriously disturbed by washouts and
considerable trouble has been reported
along the route of the Los Angeles
San Francisco Coast Line road.
Serious landslides are reported from
the mountain districts north of Saugua
and beyond the Tehachepi.
