THINK COAL As FUEL
WILL SOON Be UNUSED

1t may be only a year before all
coal bills will cease to trouble the
householders. The kick of the
servant against carrying scuttlea Of
coal up stairs form the cellar will
become q memory. There will be
no necessity for washing the side
walks of coal dust, as no coal will
be delivered in the Spring Of 1912.
These surprising statements
were made in the Montauk Club,
Brooklyn at the annual dinner of
the Electric Club.
In place of coal there will be
electrical energy. 1t may be used
for heat in the Winter and to cool
all living rooms in the Summer.
If plans are not all astray the
electric wizards will be able to
store electricity in ordinary boxes
in every home and let it run out as
desired for all purposes. 1t was
said that experiments carefully
carried out and successfully meet.
ing every test had proved the stor-
age battey principle in a simphfied
form.
Charles w. Price, one of the
proprietors of tie Electrical Re-
view and of the Western Electro
clan one of the chief speakers.
summed up the new situation in
this way:
II dare make the prediction,
baised on knowledge of important
experiments. that the day is not
far distant when the coal pile IN
the cellar will be replaced by the
electrical reservoir of boxlike
shape and moderate size to furnish
heat through the entire building
and also to the kitchen in resi-
-dences for cooling And this will
he done economically as compared
wi tn coal as this accumulated
electricity will be stored at low
cost an be on tap for use when,
needed. l am hopeful that this
may be realized before we meet
again one year from now, if we do
meet. Then will the coal wagon
in front of the house disapper, the
furnace care taker lose his vocation,
and the ashman become a remi-
niscence."
The guests at the Montank din
ner would not amplify the state
ment made by Price. beyond saying
that the world is on the edge of a
great discovery. A noted
electrician said he could be quoted
without the use Of his name:
Inside of two years electricity
will be as common as oil for house
hold purposes. A child will be
able to take care of it. Unless we
are wrong in certain experiments
the making of kitchen fire will
soon be simply the turning on Of q
brass handle. There will be no
ues for wood or coal. except in the
tenement houses. They will be the
last to come in on this new
economic discovery.-New York

ENGINEERS WATCH INTERESTING JOB

Local engineers are watching with
much interest the pumping out of the
first section of the Pearl Harbor dry
dock, and there is considerable dis
cussion as to the difficulties to be
met. Yesterday afternoon, after the
pumps had been going since Monday,
the water in the big caisson was about
twenty feet lower than outside, show
ing less than half of the water
out. Two fourteen-inch
pumps had been going night and day,
and they are still going. They are
capable of pumping at the rate of
about four thousand gallons a minute
each.
The problem to be met is that of

Arizonan From San Francisco.
The Arizonan was an early arrival
from San Francisco khis morning.
She took eight days to do the trip,
and brought 10000 tons, of general
cargo for here, as well as small car
go for Kahului and Hilo. She had an
excellent trip down, and will leave
for Hilo, via Kahului about Wednes-
day next.
The quarantine regulations are evi-
IDENTIFY beginning to get on the nerves
of the wharf and steamship officials,
and they take every opportunity of
showing their irritation on all who
come their way. The man placed at
the foot of the gangway Of the Ari-
zcnan this morning, If he had any
intelligence, concealed it with thor
oughness, and he seemed anxious to
show that he was in charge there.
Not content with telling a Star rep

the inflow of water, and it is impos-
sible to estimate in advance how fast
that will be. At a depth of fifty-fve
feet the pressure of the water of the
harbor outside the walls of the cais-
son will be about twenty-five pounds
per square inch, and water may come
in pretty fast.
AS soon as the water is low enough
it is planned to cement the bCTom,
the cement to be laid to a thickness
of fifteen feet.
The section of the dry dock upon
which the work is being done is 200
feet in length, being only about
quarter of the proposed dock.

CAN TAKE MILK BUT NOT CANDY

with n view to assisting the ofiicious
gentleman who controlled the des-
tinies of the ship, told him that it
was a newspaper man. He promptly
replied that he didn't care who it
was. Babbish came along at the
moment, and stated that it was all
right for the press representative to
go on board, but he turned around to
the customs man, and said that he
had no right to give orders to his
men, and followed it up by telling the
man that he had placed on guard that
he was to take no orders to anyone
hut the one who placed him there.
The customs man was not giving
any orders at all; he merely stated
4 fact, and if the fellow at the gang
way had used an atom of sense, he
would have made no fuss at all, as
the newspaperman was in possession
of a pass from DR.. Ramus that en-
titled him to go on board the vessel
after she had passed medical inspec-
ton.
The captain of the vessel also seem
ed to have been infected with the anti
quarantine germ. He plainly pointed
cut that no newspaperman had right
t. go on board his ship for news, as
the proper place to get it was at the
office. He reluctantly consented to
give the details of the trip, such as
the date of departure, ETC., and when
told that it was the usual custom to
board ships, he would brook no CON
tradiction, stating that he had been
too long at the game not to know
the rules of newspaper reporters.
Perhaps everyone will be happier
frame of mind when the regulations
are lifted.
Nitrate ProfitIess Cargo.
The Eel Dorado will in all probability
find the cargo of nitrate that she
brought down almost a profitless one,
for she is now having her decks caulk-
ed, and the sides are gaping so much
that she will have to go on the marine
railway before she leaves again.
Nitrate is said to be a bad cargo
to carry, and so is wheat, but just
as bad as any are railroad ties A
case was cited where the agents of
one vessel made five cents on the
railroad ties they took away. The
FL Dorado is going to load ties for
the Coast as soon as she has dis
charging her cargo of nitrate.
Massachusetts, Coming Here Again.
The All. S. S. Massachusetts is on
her way here again from New York
via San Francisco. The big vessel
will take about ten thousand tons of
/ Francisco, and will then come on
straight to these islands and load
about 5000 tons of sugar for New
! York.
Hawaii May Go Next Week.
The work of taking the nitrate out
OF the barkentine Hawaii is going on
rapidly, and will be completed soon.
As soon as she is ready for sea again
she will proceed to Mahukona to load
sugar for the Coast.
