Inspector General Looking For
ward to Maneuvers Be-
ginning Monday

4 Major George Fl. McManus, G. A. c.,
the inspector general who arrived on
the last transport to put the Depart.
ment OF Hawaii through its PAGES. has
put in several strenuous days since
his arrival, and as the result Of some
hard work all round has finished In
specting the troops, accounts, and
equipments of Forts De Russy and
Ruger. With the exception of few
aodd jobs such as the inspection OF
the small p0stssof Fort Armstrong and
Fort Kamehameha, and the accounts
of headquarters, Major McManus Is
now ready for the big job of inspect
ing the mobile army OF Oahu in the
field during the coming maneuvers.
However, in the campaign that is to
be entered into by the Red and Blue
armies commencing Monday next, the
inspection feature will be Of secondary
Importance. That is, the general plan
worked out by the maneuver board
will not be altered in any way by Maj
or McManus, who will base his repc<
on what he sees Of the personnel and
equipment. When Lieutenant Colonel
George Bell was here a few months
ago, he had entire charge Of the dis
position of the forces and directed
what their movements to suit the pur-
poses of the inspection. In this In
stance the manueyers themselves take
precedence.
Major McManus will take up his po-

Decision No CANNES May En-.
ter Territory Save Via
Honolulu Station

No dogs can be imported into the
Territory except through Honolulu.
This was decided by the board Of ag.
riculture and forestry at q meeting
held this morning at the Office Of the
Materhouse company. Stangenwald
building. It was considered that the
expense of creating sub-stations for
the quarantine of dogs on the other
islands. or on this island, would be
entirely out Of the question
"a specific decision was voted that
no dog quarantine station would be-
allowed at Schofield Barracks, or any
other military post, as was done
when the First regiment arrived
some months ago with large colony
Of dogs IN Il train
Another firm resolve registered
was that an example be made both
Of the Steamship Ventura and one
Of her passengers, on account of q
dog belonging to such passenger
which was allowed to come ashore
without going into quarantine on the
last soutnbuund trip Of that vessel.
It was voted that the matter be plac-
ed In the hands of the attorney gem
ieral TO take proceedings both against
the ship and the owner of the dog,
on the ventura's return to port, IL in
his judgment he deems 1t prudent to
do so.
The TubercuIin Test. It's
In the report of the animal industry
committee which brought up the dog
quarantine, the matter OF having
dairy cattle on the other Islands sub
jected to the tuberculin test was In
troduced. It had been decided BY the
committee that the superfntenden of
animal industry write to DR.. Elliot,
veterinarian, Hilo, regarding the ISL
and of Hawaii, and to Doctors Fitz.
gerld and Laisyer, respectively assist
ant veterinarians on Maui and Kauai,
as to those islands.
President Giffard reported that DR..
Norgaard had written the letters as

The tenth annual meeting Of the
Hawaiian Chemists Association yes,
terday was attended by about thirty
members. The meeting took place
ats the library of the chemistry build.
ing at the experiment station of the
Hawaiian Planters Association. The

dent. H. f. Savage; Secretary. s. s.
Peck; Executive Committee. H. John.
son, A. Brodie, p. Messchaert, F. E.
Greenfield, A. Kraft and A. Fries.
The morning session was occupied
by listening to the reports of various
committees, whi1h were followed by
very interesting discussions. In the
afternoon. several papers were pre-.
sented, bearing on the chemical con
troll OF cane-sugar factories. Among
these, that Of DR.. r. S. Norris on
s.Sugar-house Laboratory apparatus
and Its Use" was particularly inter
esting. The various pieces Of appa.
ratus described were exhibited
through the courtesy of a local sup
ply house, and the necessity for &C.
curacy in standard instruments en-
phasized. In the evening about forty
members and guests met for dinner
at the Country Club, rounding up in
a most pleasant manner a very prof
table day. .-seass.s.s-=ss
