CAPTAIN TRIP


was going to be a congestion at the
llackfeld wharf, due to the arrival Of
the Lurlinc, he suggested to the local
agents of the Matson line that they
dock the Lurline at the Oceanic
wharf This suggestion was not re-
cciyed graciously, and they persisted
I'm their demand to be allowed to dock
the Lurline at Haclfeld wharf This
was finally done.
However says the captain, when
the Office men of the Matson people
had a visual demonstration of the
futility Of endeavoring to overcome
law Of nature-to try to make two
things occupy the same space at once
they appealed to the harbormaster
to be allowed to move the Lurline
to the Oceanic wharf, as first sug-
gested by him. In the meantime the
Hyades had left the Matson wharf,
and Captain Trip asked them why
they did not move her % their own
wharf. This apparently had not oc-
Cured to them, and they gladly ac-
cepted the suggestion. The Lurline
was moved there this morning.
As to the charge that the dock has
been overloaded to a breaking point
with fertilizer, the captain says that
this is not true; that the rule is that
sugar can be stacked seven bags in a
tier and rice eight bags; that it takes
three bags of sugar to fill the space
and equal the weight of one bag Ct
fertilizer, and that the fertilizer has
not been excessively concentrated IN
weight in any one place on the dock
Moreover, he asserts that the Matsor
people themselves are the most fla
grant violators of the rule, and that
they totally disregard it.

STILL ANOTHER
SEWER PROBLEM

A delegation representing the Mid |
Pacific Institute called this morning |
on Superintendent Marston Campbell, |
of the Board of Public Works, and |
upon President Pratt, of the Board of |
Health, with reference to the sanitary
situation at the Institute. The party
consisted of Rev. F. w. Damn, r H. !
Trent, A. NJ. Merrill, and Willard e. |
Brown. This afternoon the same del
egation will attend the meeting of the
Board of Health.
The Institute wants a sewer con
nection, and there being no sewer to
connect to, it wants sewer laid up
Manoa Valley for the purpose. The
Territorial authorities had about de-
cided that Manoa will have to get
along without this sewer for perhaps
another year, or even longer, for the
reason that the Health Department
considers the congested districts of
Palama and Iwilei have a first claim
on the $4,000 available from the re-
cent bond issue. This because the
health of the general community is
believed to be more endangered
through lack of sewerage in these dis
tricts, than through a similar lack in
Manoa.
/ The Mid-Paclnc people nave an UNI
pleasant problem on their hands. Two
cesspools provided for taking care of
the sewage from the schools have
proved utterly inadequate, owing to
the impervious nature of the soil. The
Board of Health has notified the in
stitute that the nuisance of these
overlooking holes must be abated and
has suggested a septic tank. But the
directors of the institute do not par
ticularly favor this idea, and have
signified their willingness to spend
the money which a septic tank would
cost toward laying permanent sewer.
This might possibly amount to SO 600
or $4,000, it is understood, while the
total cost of the sewer has been es-
timated roughly at from $4,000 TO
$4,000.
The Institute people also argue that
unless the sewer is built the College
of Hawaii now building just above
the valley, will be in equally bad fix,
and will but increase the present pol
luton of lower Manoa stream and the
Waikiki flats.

PACIFIC OPIUM
Continued from page one.)

Customs Duncan McKinlay on the
opium situation.
1t is understood that the conference
resulted in the understanding that the
customs inspectors should continue AS
they have been doing in making Wig
orous efforts to discover contraband
opium on board trans-Pacifc vessels
and those from Mexican ports, while
the work of striking at the men en-
gagged in the traffic will devolve upon
the special treasury agents and some
of the best men in the government
secret service who are to be sent
here to take a hand in the game.
Skilled sIeuths Arrive.
While it is known that the opera
tives of the United States Secret
Service move in a mysterious way,
without heralding their arrival, it is
said that several of the most skilled
operatives have come here within the
last week and have reported to
Harry Mofftt, operative in charge OF
the San Francisco office, for special
detail on the opium ring.
Operatives are now in Hongkong
and Honolulu working on the opium
situation. In hongkong the United
States Secret Service men are assist
ing the officials and detectives OF
Great Britain and China
1t was through the work of one OF
Chief Wilkes men that the tip was
received which disclosed the where
abouts of $4,000 worth of opium on
the japanese liner America Maru a
few months ago.
A similar tip has been received by
special treasury agents and customs
officials here that there is even a
larger amount of contraband opium
on board the steamer Korea, which is
due to arrive here early Friday morn
