BIC GERMAN OIL
BURNING BOAT

San Francisco Chronicle, May s.
An important piece of news and one
that will revolutionize the oil industry
comes from Germany to the effect
that the Hamburg-American line is
building in that country a motor-ship
of 5000 gross tons, which will be driv-
en- at a speed of eleven or twelve
knots by twin Diesel engines, each of
1900 horsepower. It is expected that
this vessel will be in the transatlantic
service in 1912. The fuel consump.
ton estimated for this 9000-ton vessel
is twelve and one-half tons of crude
petroleum or seventy-five barrels per
day when driven at twelve knots. This
enterprise follows the successful oper.
alton of a Dutch-built motor-ship of
1179 gross tons. They are not steam
ships, but use petroleum directly as
the source of motive power.
The Hamburg-American line is re.
ported to be building four ships for
direct service between Hamburg and
San Francisco. If these are motor.
ships similar to the one which the
company is now building, they will
make the trip from port to port via
the Panama canal in about thirty
days, and consume approximately 375
tons (2250 barrels) of California
crude petroleum. Estimating the car.
go-carrying capacity of such a vessel
at 10000 tons and the cost of petrol.
cum at 81 per barrel, the fuel cost of
transportation of a ton of freight be.
tween Hamburg and San Francisco
would be % IL cents.
George w. Dickie, the shipbuilder
estimates that steamship with en-.
gines of 3O00-horsepower at eleven
knots will consume 300 barrels of pc.
troleum per day, which, at 81 per bar.
rel, would be $500 per day. The mo.
tor-ship of the same tonnage will con.
sumo only seventy-five barrels per
day, or one-fourth the quantity of that
used in a steamship. AS the fuel oil
would have to be taken in California

TRUST DECISION
WAS DISCOUNTED

Writing on May 6, or nine days
before the Standard Oil decision,
Henry Clews of New York, says.
81 can see no reason to change
the opinion recently expressed IN
these advices that even at the worst
an adverse ruling in the trust cases
by the Supreme Court would not be
a vital matter. It would merely
mean that legal methods of doing
business must, in the future, be pur-
sued by our great industrial corpora
lions. There is no question of pun
ishment or penalty involved in the
Washington proceedings; and what
ever readjustment is necessary to
meet the views of our highest tri-
bunal will undoubtedly be promptly
met Standard Oil interests have in
the past proved themselves to be
such shrewd merchants and manufac-
turers-shrewd and efficient business
men-that it would be childish to
suppose that they have not exer-
cised their full powers in connection
with this important development in
their business to prepare themselves
promptly to accept the ruling of the
court, whatever it may prove to be.
at is also desirable to bear in
mind that the proposed tariff revis-
ion can hardly result in changes of
the exceedingly drastic character
that was promised Immediately after
the election. Shrewd Washington
observers already see a reactionary
trend in what has become known as
the Insurgents movement" and the
idea, which seems to have recently
grown in favor, of gradually reduc-
ing wool duties instead of making
sudden and spectacular reductions is
development that will appeal to
business interests as obviating one
of the most unsettling features of
tariff revision. This same plan may
possibly later on be applied with ad-
vantage to the other schedules on
which action is intended"

TO PIPE GAS TO LOS ANGELES.

San Francisco Chronicle, Nav S.
simultaneously with the inauguration
of the plant for manufacturing gaso
line from natural gas in the wells Of
the Honolulu Consolidated in the
Buena Vista hills, the Standard Oil
Company will pipe gas from it's wells
in the same district for domestic and
manufacturing consumption in Los
Angeles. The Los Angeles Gas and
Electric Company has given an order
for 125 miles of eight-inch pipe from
the Union Oil Well Supply Company
for the purpose Of transporting the
gas to that city.
When the gas supply fails the pipe
can be used for the transportation of
oil The pipe line will run across
Midway valley and the Maricopa fiat
via San Emidio, across the Moiave
desert, through Newhall to Los An
geles.
The gas belt in the Buena Vista
i'iiio 10 OhS VI lne luOSI eAJeHSlNe ii
the United States It is twelve miles
long and contains an enormous sup
ply of natural gas. The Honolulu
Consolidated tapped the oil strata at
1000 feet about a year and a half
ago. The Standard discovered gas
about the same time six miles far
Their up the range to the northwest.
The California Oil World of Bak-
! ersield estimates that oil fuel con-
sumption to the amount of about
, 100000 barrels per month may be af-
fected by the introduction of natural
gas as fuel in Los Angeles and the
surrounding towns. This estimate is
based upon the known consumption
Iof oil fuel in that city by various
manufacturing establishments now
Iusing oil fuel.

the effect that at that hour she was
1920 miles from Honolulu, expert
encing light, variable wind, with a
smooth sea. For Honolulu she has
1910 tons of cargo, $50 for Kahului,
and seventy for Port Allen. She has
1876 bags of mail for here and eighty

The work of repairing the marine
railway after the accident which oc-
Cured on Saturday when the Mauna
Kea was on it, is being pushed ahead
as rapidly as possible. The cradle
has been secured, and is now in posi-
ton for repairs. A new chain that
will be capable of lifting up to 1000
tons, will be fitted where the old one
was, thus increasing the capacity o.
the railway from 1900 tons to 1000.
Thus the docking of the Mauna Kea
may be undertaken in future with
perfect safety. The engine, 1t is said,
will be able to stand the strain, and
is easily powerful enough for such a
weight.

act whose prohibition does not benefit
the public. Further, the ordinance
is alleged to be in conflict with Chap
ter 79 of the Revised Laws relating
to the abatement of nuisances, and
with Chapter SO relating to the san.
itary condition of dwelling houses, and
with Chapter rs relating to the Board
of Health, and with sections 1 o %
both inclusive of the Board of Health
regulations, and with sections 1 to %
both inclusive of the plumbing regula-
tions of the Board of Health; in that
said ordinance makes it a criminal
offense to do that which had been
made a criminal offense by law prior
to the passage of such ordinance.
Finally, that Sec. of the ordinance
is unconstitutional in that it deprives
one of his property without due proc
ess of law.

opium to be smuggled in by the crews

attention was paid solely to those
boats arriving from the Orient, but
now every boat, irrespective of where
it is from, is being searched, searched
thoroughly, too. The Lurline one day
yielded up number of tins. The
Hyades's cargo the other day was put
through the sieve, but without results,
and the Wilhelmina was examined thor
oughly yesterday and today, but with
out success. There is some avenue
by which opium is introduced, but so
far the customs officials have not
