HAWAII BEGINS
TO FEED ITSELF

Imports of foodstuffs from the Unit
in the same class of imports for the
month of January this year were $94,-
168 less than for the same month last
year. AS there was also a decrease
in the same class of imports for the
seven months ended January 81, it
looks as if Hawaii were really making
Roadway toward the position of being
able to feed itself. The showing is
the more significant in view of the
steadily increasing proportion of con-
sumers to producers in the Territory.
The articles in question are meat
and dairy products, breadstuffs includ-
ing animal feed, vegetables, and fruits.
In every one of these the month of
January shows a decrease, the aggre-
gate being as already stated, while
in all excepting the last two items
there is also decrease for the seven
months ending January. The net de-
crease, representing a gain in Ha-
waits self-sustaining capacity, for the
seven months is $4,000. Following
are details:
Meat and dairy products-January,
$55,493; decrease from last year, $4S,-
65S. Seven months, $49O,47S; de-
crease, $13,443.
Breadstuffs including animal feed
January, $146,321; decrease, $22,7O7.
Seven months, $1,O67932; decrease.
$1O0,5S6.
egetables-January, $15,493; de.
crease, $S429. Seven months, $170,-
500; increase, $22,765.
Fruits, etc.-January, S13,651; de-
crease, $14,374. Seven months, $780,
07S; increase, $18,137.

whatever he could then called his
attention to the fact that these labor.
ers could not be taken off to the ship
without the assistance of local men,
and that all persons on board the
scow and tug or other vessel used
in conveying these people out to the
steamer should be warned that they
were aiding in the unlawful recruiting
of labor for employment outside the
Territory, so that there would be no
excuse left for even the decks hands
to continue at work. l suggested that
he order them to desist, but did not
advise their arrest, for l had come to
conclusion by that time that matters
had gone so far that it might lead to
a row in the crowd and probably the
serious injury of number of people
This conclusion was reached after
the movement was full blown and the
crowds upon the wharf were all ready
to embark. The time to check the
movement was in the early evening
and that matter was absolutely in
the control of the police who had the
means of locating those who were
engineering the job either as runners
or otherwise, and could have arrested
them or blocked the work off before
any large crowd had assembled.

KAIMUKI TO HAVE
GRAND BARBECUE

A large variety of business was
transacted at the monthly meeting Of
the Waialae Kaimuki and Palolo
Improvement Club, held at Aliiolani
College last night, although several
of its most active members were abb
sent on a deputation from both the
club and the Central Improvement
Committee appearing before the
Board of Supervisors.
The leading topic was furnished in
majority and minority reports of a
special committee on club house
site. A. F. Clark presenting the for
mer and II. T. Mills the latter A
site on Wilhelmina Rise, on the Pa
lolo side. was advocated by the for
mer. the Kaimuk Land Co. giving
an option on it for $3.50, with an
offer of 5000 contribution to the
price, together with an offer to build
a house for $1,000. The minority
opposed that site on the ground that
it was not central, and submitted
list of other sites on various locations.
After every one present had been
given an opportunity to express his
views, the question was deferred to
an adjourned meeting a week later
Other business consisted chiefly of
reports of progress from committees.
c. A. Stanton reported that barbe-
cue could be held on June II if the
club so decided, in conformity with
an offer of beeves and muttons there
for made by the Kaimuki Land Co.
at the previous meeting 1t was unan-
mously voted to have the barbecue.
A resolution was carried to request
of the Rapid Transit Co. an extern
sion into Ocean View tracts.
The meeting was in session for
two hours.

night or from the plantations by
night. Laborers may be taken over
land from the plantations to Homo
lulu or by sea. 1t is impossible for
us to anticipate just what move will
be made. Under these circumstances
we believe that it is your duty to see
that the entire police force under
your charge are on the alert all along
the line and that any movement
among the laborers on the plantations
or in this city indicating that they are
about to leave the Territory should be
promptly reported to those that will
be affected thereby, and every effort
should be made by the police to check
the action of any recruiting agent or
runner for recruiting agent who may
be instigating and be responsible for
such movement.
Lost Confidence in Rose.
ITO be frank with you, Mr.. Jarrett,
the conduct of your deputy, Mr.. Rose,
in connection with the recruiting work
of Mr.. Craig, is such that, whatever
Mr.. Roses motives may have been
and, however, strictly he may have
kept within the law in any assistance
that he has rendered Mr. Craig, the
fact is that confidence in him and in
his ability and willingness to act
against Mr.. Craig and his associates
property rights are likely to be affect
ed by the recruiting that thus far has
gone on and which now threatens to
continue The fact that we address
you In this matter shows our abiding
confidence in you and your willing
ness and ability to see that existing
laws for the protection of employers
of laborers in this Territory are not
further infringed upon, and we hope
that you will take all steps necessary
throughout the City and County tC
check any move on the part of those
in charge of the Senator or otherwise
to violate the existing laws for the re
cruiting of labor without a license
and the other laws bearing upon the
recruiting of labor for employment
abroad.
1--WE kept our office open right along
the entire evening and about o'clocl
was notified that a movement o
laborers had begun throughout thu
town towards the wharfs, with tn,
manifest intention of leaving on tn,

minutes and saw at once that tn,

ers were being assembled at the foo
of Fort street to 90 on local boats t,

Of the reach of local process.

FOR THE FISH

The luscious mullet, a festive and
feastive fish, is to be protected after
fashion, if the governor will sign the
bill.
The Senate passed a measure on
third reading this morning on recon-
mendation of the fish committee,
which in thie case happens to be the
health or Chillingworth committee,
and which committee amends the bill
so as to give mullet pond proprietors
a chance to stock their ponds from
the ocean and to sell the mature fish
from their ponds. Mullet don't breed
in ponds, says the committee, and the
committee knows.

Deputy Sheriff Rose was in charge
but l went past him and asked the
officer at the desk where Sheriff Jar
rett was.
He told me he was at nome.
81 drove to his home, found there
was no light in the house; l pounded
on the door and could arouse no one.
Neighbors informed me that ne had
gone away and they didn't know
where he was.
Police Not Active.
Il then returned and told Deputy
Sheriff Rose that l wished to enter a
formal protest against the inaction OF
the police in taking no steps to pre-
vent the town being turned over to
the recruiting agents of the Senator.
told him that the Encouragement
and the County attorney had both held
there was no lawful emigrant license
out and therefore all recruiting, wheth-
er of the employed or unemployed,
was unlawful, and on behalf of those
who were losing their labor l demand
ed an enforcement of the recruiting
laws. .....i. a. ,u,.s
said to him, CLOCKS of laborers
cannot be going off tonight without
arrangements having been made to
take them off, and all persons thus
aiding or abetting this movement were
acting without authority of law, and
| it was the duty Of the police to pre-.
vent it," and l demanded that they
discharge their duty.
Rose made no reply for some mo-
ments but simply grinned.
Finally he said, Did you find the
sheriff, or where is the sheriff."
said the sheriff is neither on duty mol
at home, and l don't know where he
is or what he is doing, then left.
Neglect of Duty.
| Between and $3.50 in the evening
while walking along in front of Ceci
/ Browns Office on Merchant street,
was accosted by Jarrett, who came III
! behind me from Fort street. He
wanted to know what to do. l was
so disguised with his absence from
duty after the warning he had receiv
ed that l declined to talk with hin
for some time, but he persisted an,
wanted to know what he had BETTE
do, and l told him that the matter
had gone so far that he was too lat,
to do much; that the time for actor
was before this thing had got head
way At that time there were severa
hundred assembled on the wharf ap
parntly under a good deal of excite
ment, and took no stock in Jarrett
late appearance, believing it was al
attempt on his part after neglectinI
his duty of squaring himself by ask
ing me what to do when it was to-
late to do much anything. He pei
sisted, however, that he wanted to d.

Rose Makes Statement.

Deputy SheriT C. II. Rose was
somewhat perturbed at the reports
current of his alleged sympathy with
the labor recruiting agents and par
ticularly with Frank B. Craig, and in
this connection he had the following
to say to a Star representative this
morning: Attorney Prosser tele-
phoned to the sheriff yesterday after
noon, at a time when | was over at
the stock yards executing a warrant,
asking for an officer to go with him
to serve a warrant on Craig and some
others. When l got back to the sta
ton it was close on six O'CLOCK in
the afternoon and before l had been
there any time Sheriff Jarrett tele-
phoned up to speak to the captain.

Four PoTice Dogs.
BY the German ship H. Hackfeld
which arrived from Hamburg this
morning, Paul Tsenberg received four
dogs that have been doing service
in the German police force as part of
the regular work. This dogs have
been wonderfully trained, and they
are of invaluable assistance to the
police in the tracking of criminals.
What will be done with them here, of
course, cannot be sad, but it is pos
sible that occasionally Mr.. Isenberg
will lend them to keep up their train
ing. On the way over Liesse became
the mother of eleven puppies. The
other dogs names are Tell, Jopp and
Flora. They were in first class condi-
ton, and ONE Of them showed great
reluctance to leave the vessel
Columbian From Tacoma.
The All. S. S. Columbian arrived
late yesterday afternoon from TACO
ma after a passage that was delight
full the whole way, no rough weather
being encountered at all. She was
hurried up from the other end owing
to the fact that she had load of grid
ers for a bridge at Hil0. 1t was anti
cipated that these would take some
time to unload so in order to save
time at this end she was dispatched
five days ahead of her schedule date
She has on board for this port about
200 tons of cargo from the Sound, but
altogether she has about $1,000 tons
The German ship HacRfeld was pass
ed yesterday afternoon. A launch fol
the Engineers Department at Hilo is
also on board the Columbian.

morning visitor, having arrived from

half days on the journey, which was
an excellent one in every way. She
brings a full cargo of oil for here, She

marking the trip at all. Albert o.

Warning to Police.

The financial loss that will result
to the plantations on this island by
further depicting their supply of labor
is likely to be very serious, and under
these circumstances we feel justified
in demanding the fullest protection
of the law and the police department
against any violation of the law which
stands between the companies we rep
resent and the losses that are threat
ened if the purpose of those in charge
of the S. S. Senator is carried out
We do not know along what lines
these people are working. Labor may

Kinney's Statement.
Mr.. Kinney of the firm of Kinney,

terday evening in connection with the
labor recruiting troubles, dictated the
following statement:
About o'clock the leading sugar
houses, under my advice, sent Sheriff
Jarrett letter all in about the same
language, a copy of one of which is
as follows:
"Mr. w. P. Jarrett, Sheriff, City and
County of Honolulu, Honolulu.
Dear sir:-The S. S. Senator, as
we are informed, has arrived in the
port of Honolulu for the purpose OF
withdrawing labor from the Territory
for employment abroad, and the pre-
sumption is that steps are now being
taken to secure labor for this steamer
You will note that botn the attorney
general and the County attorney fol
the City and County of Honolulu have
ruled that the territorial license here
tofore granted to a Mr.. Craig and ;
Mr.. Ogawa are illegal and void, anC
the result of that is that there arr
today no valid licenses issued au
thorizing the conduct of the business
of an emigrant agent in this Territory
and therefore any recruiting of labO
or any act constituting the business
of an emigrant agent at this time OF
the part of any one is contrary to law
whether the labor so affected is unde
employment or not.

Catarrh Cannot Be Cured
Any medicine for external application

surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cure is not
a quack medicine. 1t was prescribed
by one of the best physicians in this
country for years and is regular pre-
scription. 1t is composed of the best
tones known, combined with the best
