AWAITS HORSES AND MULES

The Togo Kisen Kasha liner Min,
pom Maru that sailed on Saturday !
evening for San Francisco. is one Of
the last vessels operated by the big |
Japanese company to carry an Euro !,
pean as sole official in the purser's |
Office.
Alleging extravaganza as one Of
tho masin reasons for eifccting a radi- |
cal change in the management of the
steamship, word has been brought |
TO Honolulu by the Nippon, mat &C
cOmpanyin% each steamer in the
trans-Pacific service will he 4 Japan
csc officer whose duties it will be t0I
keep a check upon all expenses in
CURED in maintaining the vessel Il
sea and during the stay at the por.s
of call.
Heretofore the European purscrt
have been given complete control oV-
err their department. To them wa
delegated the purchase of necessary
supplies. They had charge of the
cash box and made all payments Of
| bills and salaries,
Under the new arrangement the
European purser is claimed will be
more or less a figure head in the
direction of affairs in hi sdepartment
No monies it is said will be pad
out save after the items have been
carefully checked over By the delegat-
ed Japanese Officer who viii occom-
pany all liners in their voyaging back
| and forth across the Pacific.
European ptwsers will, as hereto
fore, come in contact with passen-
gers. AS entertainers they win b.
shorn of none of their powers in this
| direction.
| 1t is claimed that the japanese
steamship company directors realize
! that in order to secure their share OF
trade other than that of the Oriental
! they must provide sufficient European
officers to man their ships. It is free
| ly predicted were this not the senti-
ment among travellers, the Togo Isl
sen Kaisha as well as the Nippon
Yusen kaisha and other japanese
! lines would soon eliminate all Euro
| pcans from The service.
The Chiyo Maru arriving here en- Or
about February 18Th may be the first
vessel operating under the new re-
gulation
