AWAITING WORD As
TO THE IMMIGRANTS

The territorial board of immigration
is expecting any day word from Special
Agent Campbell who is now in London,
that he has chartered a steamer to
bring immigrants from Spain or the
Azores to Tehuantepec, where they will
be shipped across the isthmus and tran.
shipped in steamer to be chartered
by Doctor Clark at San Francisco for
this purpose, aud so brought to Homo.
lulu.
Unfortunately Doctor Clark can not
proceed with the charter of a steamer
until he knows just how many immi-
grants may be expected, so that he can
make arrangements accordingly.
Assistant Secretary Kearns has re-
ceived a cable from Doctor Clark stat.
ing that the latter had heard from Mr..
Campbell to the effect that there was
every prospect of his chartering a
steamer, but he said nothing as to how
many immigrants he expected to bring
here.
Meanwhile cholera is raging in the
islands and undoubtedly a great number
of the Portuguese would be only too
glad to escape and come to Hawaii.
The question is, what action the fed
eral authorities might take in such a
case. 1t would probably mean strict
quarantine at the least.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1911-01-06
.ERNA' s CARGO
BADLY HEATED
Wheat May Have to Be Destroy
ed Owing TO Damage
by Water.

There is a strong possibility that the
entire cargo Of wheat in the hold of
the German steamship Erna, which ar.
rived hero Monday from Tacoma, after
having been battered by gales for ten
days, may have to be removed and de.
stroyod.
A board of. survey inspected the
cargo to some extent yesterday and
found that so much water had entered
the wheat compartment that the cargo
was swelling and had become greatly
heated. 1t was so hot in some places
that hand could not be kept long
ON a bag Of the cereal.
Captain Koeckling stated on Monday
that his vessel had encountered the
toughest kind of weather on the way
from Tacoma. The gale was terrific
and the decks were constantly swept By
great seas, which entered the cabins
and flooded every compartment. Not
a stateroom escaped tho deluge. At
times the steamer was almost ON her
beam ends.
The captain knew that water had
worked down into the hold and he
found on arrival that it would have
30 be surveyed. This was done yestcr-
day by o competent trio OF men ae-
quainted with marine affairs and they
found the cargo to be in an alarming
state. A decision will bo reached to
today as to what course win be fol-
lowed to obviate any danger from the
heated cargo.
With tho wheat in such swollen
state the bags become rotten and pull
away from the contents easily. Insects
gather when wheat swells. Just how
much of the cargo may be saved is
yet to be determined. A few years
ago a cargo of wheat arrived here in
similar condition, and was destroyed
under orders. 1t was discovered that
some water gained access to the hold
through scupper, which was fonnd
broken.
The Erna was en- route from Tacoma
for Port Said for orders, and she would
probably have been sent to Turkey,
where both the Erna and her sistership,
the Ella, which was in port last week
for coal may both be sold. 1t is said
that both vessels may pass under the
flag of the Star and Crescent Of Tur-
key. The Erna is twenty-one years old
