HARBOR Commission
APPROVES NEW PLAN
FOR DRYDOCK SITE

The logical site for the InterIsland
company's floating pontoon dock is at
the Eva end of the slip between the
Mauna Loa and Hackfeld wharves, in
the opinion of the harbor commission
ers, who visited the site yesterday af-
ternoon. In all probability the appli.
cation of the Inter Island company for
this site will be granted.
The commissioners found that the
slip end is useless for shipping pur.
poses, owing to the narrowness of the
wharf space which there dwindles down
to point. They found it being used
only by Japanese fishermen, laid-up
small craft and a dredge.
The Nuuanu stream will be DETECTED
to some extent by Encouragement of
the wall bordering the stream. Owing
to the large quantities of mud, the slip
may have to be dredged by the Inter
Island company about twice year to
keep the depth necessary for the sink
ing of the pontoon. The Inter-Island
company is anxious to get possession
of the slip as soon as possible in or
der to prepare for the dock materials
which are being ordered from the main
land.

The mixing or manufacturing of any
grade of opium is an offense against
the internal revenue laws, and th,
prisoners being held will be charged
with crimes against those statutes. The
sale of opium, of any kind, within the
Territory without territorial license
is also crime under the statute re
gulating the sale of poisonous drugs
but in the present cases it appears that
the arrested Cinnamon were not selling
the product of their labors but using il
principally themselves. But under the
federal statues they had no more right
to make it for their own use than mar
