now up to Wilson to take some legal
step or his bill for an injunction will
be heard with nearly every clause
struck out.
First real blood In the fight has been
drawn by the defense, Judge Robin

motion to strike with the exception of
one clause. The injunction filed by
Wilson has now only one leg on which
to stand. namely. whether or not he
was the lowest responsible bidder.
The clause that IL now left In the
Injunction and around which the whole

petitioner was and Is the lowest re-

and that said contract should by law
have been awarded to him for the

clause and have II fought out on that.

The Inter-Island steamship Mauna
Kea, the flagship of the fleet Is said
by passengers to have come into con-
tact with the rocks near Maizena,
point of the coast OF Maui, and re-
NAMED In that position for about IF
teen minutes before the steamer res
pended to the efforts Of reversed en-
gines, which finally succeeded in lib
Grating the Mauna Kea from what
might have proved a precarious posi-
ton.
A considerable scare is declared to
have been thrown into number Of
deck passengers who were awakened
from sound slumber on or about mid
night Friday at which time the vessel
is said to have ran into the obstruc-
ton.
The officers are inclined to have
nothing to say concerning the mis-
hap which might have turned out to
be tragedy.
The steamer was en- route to Homo
lulu. carrying a fair list of cabin and
a goodly number OF deck travellers.
An examination was made Of the
vessels bottom but no damage Is de-
clared to have resulted from her i'm
pact on the rocks near Makena point.
The Mauna Kea sailed for Hilo and
way ports at ten twenty-five this
morning taking among her passengers
large percentage Of tourists who
propose viewing the wonders to be
found at the volcano. The Mauna Kea
was well supplied with shipments Of
general cargo.
Many Japanese Tramps.
The Japanese tramp steamers may
shortly be strong factor In compe-
ton with the regular transpaciiic
lines Is the report. says the s. f..
Chronicle. brought by the liner Man
churia. Forty foreign steamers were
recently purchased In Japan, augment
ing the tonnage by 100000 tons, and
the ship owners are seeking business
for these vessels. The Kobe Herald
says that In addition to seeking new
fields for trade east Of Singapore. the
owners OF freighters have begun to-
look to the development OF the trade
from Japan across the Pacific. II Is
said that there has lately been some
demand for the timber to be exported
by the Mitsui Bussan Kaisha from
Hakodate.
This year the demand hos been in
creased by the rise In the price Of
Java sugar which has enabled Formo-
san sugar to enter America. The
condition has directly affected the
freight on wheat and -four from the
United States to Japan. Originally.
shipping companies which have SER
vices between this Coast and Japan
agreed to adopt the same fixed rate Of
freight. As. however, the individual
ship owners who have started the new
service to America make efforts to-
attract the American goods for their
steamers on their way back. the Nip
pom Yusen Kaisha and other compan-
les have been compelled to cut the
rate on -four and wheat from SO to
81. 1t Is now said that the individual
ship owners In Japan will endeavor
to attract shipments from America
by lowering freights even more, and
some competition is expected In con-
sequence In the near future.

Leave His Party Unless Pro-

Hull, manager of the Detroit agency
of the Equitable Life Insurance Co.,
and formerly head of the Orchard
Lake Military Academy, but against
Republican presidential candidate
OF the unprogressive type | would GER
tainlv support Woodrow Wilson. l
admire the man greatly and ! admire
the work that he has done In cleaning
up New Jersey, which was entirely
under the domination OF the railroads
until he was elected governor. He
is a strong man, a scholarly man,
with the best of academic training,
and he has shown that a man does
not have to be master OF practical
politics TO be politically successful.
he has shown that a man OF intellec-
tual training can meet the practical
politician at his own game and secure
results He has actually accomplish
ed more for New Jersey than has
ever been accomplished before by the
politicians.
Il have voted the Democratic ticket
only twice, casting my ballot for
Grover Cleveland on the last two oc-
casions that he ran, but with man
OF the type OF Roosevelt at the head
OF the Republican ticket | could find
no reason to change my party al
legiance. But unless a man OF that
type is nominated ! shall give my sup
port TO Woodrow Wilson. / believe
that there are more men trained for
administrators In the Republican par
ty today than in the Democratic par
ty, though | can find no fault with the
statesmanship exhibited by the Demo
cratic majority In the last house OF
representatives. They made a record
which is highly creditable.
u am sure that my views are
shared by large number of Repub-
licans and that Woodrow Wilson
could swing many Republicans votes
If he were running against a Rernb-
iican OF the reactionary type.

All of the splendid effort of the
week OF religious activity in Detroit
came to a focus in the Central NJ. F..
church, Friday evening, when the
several specialized experts OF the
Men and Religion Forward Movement
gave a digest of their triumphs or
the week, and their hopes and plans
for Detroit In the future TO an audi
ence, largely composed OF the clergy,
which filed every available bit of
space In the big edifice, and was
swept by such boundless enthusiasm
that the auditorium frequently
echoed with cheers.
A unity institute and conservation
meeting" was what the experts speci-
fically termed the meeting, but 1t was
really the time and place used by
them to case their mantles upon the
shoulders of those who came to take
up the labors, with a spirit that was
prophetic of the realization of the
Men and Religion war cry. Detroit
not only bigger but better"
James Schermerhorn, vice-chairman
of the local executive committee. pre-
sided, and while the expert workers
were still detained at another meet
ing, started the enthusiasm by re-
sumo of the work of the week, its re-
suits, and it's possibilities for the
future. He compared the campaign to
war, in some of It's phases, and de-
clared that though II was to be re-
gretted that the individual profes-
sional and business men had not TAX
en- a more active part in 1t, yet they
have been reached by the movement
In shops, in hotel lobbies, and In
every place where they gather, and
have been impressed by the great
mobilization OF a Christian army, with
all denominational barriers down, and
with united front for Christian man
hood.
Conservation Of Christian Spent
Far greater than the much talked
OF conservation of natural resources
of the country. is the conservation OF
the Christian spirit of Christian ma
tion," said Mr.. Schermerhorn.
A round of cheering was cut loose
when James a. Whitmore, athletic
coach, former football star of North
western university, and leader of the
team OF experts working here, de-
clared that IL the Christian forces Of
Detroit would work together, vote to-
gether, and stand together. shoulder
to shoulder, the forces Of sin and evil
would flee in utter rout.
Mr.. Whitmore announced the big
plan of the movement as a great
world congress to be held during the
third week of April in some city not
yet chosen, where the world would
be given demonstration of the ex-
istence OF real Christian brother
hood. Seven commissions will work
on the different subjects touched by
the men and religion movement, will
investigate and prepare data, and
will bring before the world congress,
their conclusions and findings. April
2S will be set apart as Conservation
Day, and the note OF world brother
hood will be sounded around the
world by such men as Lloyd-George or
Britain, and representatives OF the
greatest Christian conservationists of
every land in the world.
