7. Tanaka Comes
But Not As Was
Expected, Consul
Says Appointment of Success
Sor to Mr.. Uyeno Not
Decided

Hon Tokichi Tanaka has not been
sent here as Japanese consul general
for Hawaii to succeed S. Uyeno This
was made certain this morning by Mr..
Tanaka himself on his arrival by the
Shinyo Maru
He has come for tour of only two
or three weeks, after which he will re-
turn to Japan. he said, but there seems
to be a possibility that he may yet be
named consul here The appointment
is still undecided by the Japanese gov
ernment.
Mr.. Tanaka was greeted upon his
arrival this morning by large number
of prominent Japanese, and the scene
on the Shinyo's deck for few min
utes was like an informal reception
He was here ten years ago as eleve
consul and still numbers his friends
here by the score.
Eleve Consul Mori headed the little
group that gathered at Alakea dock to
welcome the consul and several prom
inent Japanese newspaper men were
also present.
Il am mere parity on pleasure ana
partly to look over the field" said Mr..
Tahaka TO the Star Bulletin. THE APP
pointment of consul is still unde-
cided."
Asked if there was any possibility
that he himself would be named. he
smiled and Indicated that there is a
possibility of such a result
He will be the guest of the Mochi-
zuki Club during his stay here Mr..
Mori said this morning that no elab-
orate functions had been planned for
the visitor, as Mr.. Tanakas desire is
for rather quiet visit.
Mr. Tanaka. although young man,
has made a record for himself in the
consular service. He was stationed in
Seattle some years ago at particu-
larly critical period in Japanese and
American relations and acquitted him
self with credit.
A trip of inspection around the Is
lands will probably be made during his
stay here.

eThe philanthropists could invest
saw $1OO 600. in a tenement, making It
modern in every. way, and almost as
desirable as any private home in the
city: practically all OF the revenue
from rentals to be turned back into
improvements, repairs, etc. The own
ers would then be able to enforce
rules on the inhabitants that would
prove great uplift, physically, fina1-
cially and morally, and thus would
become great factors in the develop
ment of the city.
Practical I'm New York.
~This is so practical that philan-
tbropists in New York City are max
ing use of it, and have even found that
after making very low rental. with
high moral rules for inhabitants, they
are able to derive small revenue
above the cost of maintenance. This
revenue perhaps is not equal to the IN
terest on the money invested, but the
difference is the owners contribution
as philanthropists, to humanity. l

tory there, and | certainly believe II

sparkles of silver and white and made
a very beautiful sight. In the cave the
