that plantation. II Is estimated by
persons who have Just visited that
plantation that the crop taken of will
run over $4,000 tons, which is 1000
tons more than the estimate made at
the beginning of the season. The
prospects for next year on this prop

According to the returns Of the

At the present time the Sugar Fac

Fire Escapes.

Fire Escapes.
There has been summing up of
the needs of fire escapes in this city.
and it has been ascertained that there
are but forty-nine buildings in the
whole city which must have fire es-
capes added to them, and II Is en-
pected that these will all be placed
inside of three months. According to
Inspector Miehlstein, there is every
desire on the part of the owners to
live up to the ordinance.

New Vessel.
II Is now known for certainty
that there will soon be contracts let
by the Matson Navigation Company
for the construction of a new vessel
for the trade between this port and
the Coast. In speaking of the matter
Mr.. T.. d. Tenney. vice-president and
manager. of Castle 4 Cooke. stated
that he WAS of the opinion that the
increased demand for tonnage at this
port warranted the placing Of an or
der for an additional vessel.
The new vessel will be larger and
more powerful than any In the fleet
at the present time. and the impress
sion created was that the new vessel
would be used principally for the
passenger business.

ed In real earnest about the middle
Of the week, with the work under the
immediate charge Of W. NJ. Giffard.
The inspectors that have been sent
out have maps of the districts In
which they expect to work. and they
will make thorough inspection of
all premises with view of seeing
that all fallen or decaying fruit IL
properly taken care of.
There will be a house-to-house can
yass till the city has been covered,
and In this way II is thought that n
fairly good start will have been made
In the eradication of the pest. The
work is by no means going to end
there, and the campaign will be kept
going till the island Is free from the

GUTTER PROBLEM
IS HARD ONE

DIR. Mccoy reported this morning
that the work of hauling garbage from
the city streets should be finished in
a week or so. One hundred and six
loads We're hauled from Apana 4 yes
terday, and the district is beginning to
show the effect of the work.
The strictly mosquito side Of the
question is now being taken up, and
the gutter problem is worrying the
campaign officials. The work of get
ting rid of the house cutters as breed
ing places is difficult Only three
ways are possible. The cutters could
be screened at great expense, torn
down altogether or oiled. TO do the
latter seems impossible, as the first
shower of rain washes the Oil away
The mosquito squad finds wrigglers
in all sorts of places since the rain
began. The catch basins are being
safeguarded with drip cans, and some
hundreds of the oil containers have
been already installed.

1t will be exactly on the same foot

that always some of the accommoda-

M'MAHON GIVEN
Ten YEARS IN
PENITENTIARY

Ten years in the penitentary is the
sentence given to John A. Mcmahon
this morning for killing A. N Ceder
lof at Schofeld Barracks. This is the
maximum for voluntary manslaughteT,
the crime of which he was convicted
and comes as considerable of sur
prise not only to the prisoner himself
and his counsel, but to most of those
who had watched the progress of the
trial.
The sentence of ten years, however
does not mean that Mcmahon must
stay in jail that long. BY good be-
havior he can get a Communication Of
nearly four years, reducing the time
he must serve to a little more than
six years.
Mcmahon preserved in court this
morning, when he faced the Judge for
sentence, the same imperturbable
countenance that marked him all dur
ing the progress of the trial. He is
evidently a man of iron nerve, for
never once since he was brought to
trial has he exhibited any trace of
emotion. When he gave his testi-
mony in his own behalf, he sank back
in his chair, apparently unnerved, but
that was the only time.
Mrs. Mcmahon was much more calm
this morning than she has been most
of the time. Her face was pale and
there were traces of past tears in her
eyes, but she made no move when
the judge pronounced sentence.
There was a long conference this
morning in Judge Clemons' chambers
among the Judge, Mr.. Breckons and
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-12-15

ed States and Australian governments
have signed an agreement that has
not yet been made public. 1t is well
known that the Australian business
men, in the eastern states. chiefly,
were extremely dissatisfied when the
new compact was entered into, by
which the Canadian-Australian liners
called at Auckland instead of Bris-
ban, Queensland, thus giving an a1-
vantage to New Zealand. The old
Natal formerly the Miowera) the
Aorangi and an interstate liner, are
far from satisfactory to Australian
business men, because Wellington,
New Zealand, is the terminal point.
Therefore, Australian goods for San
Francisco have to be transhipped.
When the alteration in the port of
call to Auckland of the Canadian-Aus,
tralian boats, was made there was Il
big outcry, and the next thing was
the dispatch of one of the New South
Wales government Officers to the
mainland. Before he was on his way
back to Australia, came the announce

Mr.. Biting and Mr.. Andrews and Mr..
Murphy. The matter of the sentence
was evidently threshed out then, for
none of the attorneys had anything
to say when they came into court.

have you any reason why sentence
should not be pronounced upon you?"

THE OCEANIC Plans
FOR RESUMING The
AUSTRALIAN ROUTE

In order that the three sister ships,
Sierra, Ventura and Sonoma, will be
equally up-to-date, the Sierra, accord
ing to present plans, will soon be re-
moved from the Honolulu-San Fran
cisco run. The Sonoma will be COM
pleted first, and she will be put on the
Honolulu-San Francisco run, while
the Sierra will go into dock to be
thoroughly renovated Her compile
tion will be synchronous with that Of
the Ventura.
The Ventura will not be tried out,
for it has been reasoned, if the So
noma develops no defects in her new
oil-burning plant, then those on the
sister ships will be all right. The
three vessels will resume the Sydney
San Francisco service in May next,
with Auckland, N. a., Pago Pago and
Honolulu as ports of call
The resumption of this service has
been in the air for many months now,
