Especial Star-Bulletin Correspondence
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. s.
Senator George C. Perkins OF Calf
fornia contemplates visiting Hawaii
in the near future. He Is chairman
of the Senate committee on naval az.
fairs and will make the visit in
semiofficiai capacity. He is extreme
ly anxious to carefully inspect the
naval station at Pearl Harbor and
ascertain for himself. the additional
betterments necessary TO make 1t Inn
pregnable.
The announcement of Senator Per-
kins' intention was made to Leland
8. CONFESS just prior to his departure
for home. John CONFESS, q former
Senator from California, and a close
personal friend of Lincoln, was well
known to Mr. Perkins and caused him
to take strong personal interest in
the son. He rendered young Con-
ness much valuable assistance In se-
curing the requisite legislation for
mis- street railroad project during the
present session Of Congress.
In disclosing his purpose Senator
Perkins said he expected to make the
Journey to Honolulu next spring. He
might set an earlier date, but believed
IL would be diffiepIt for him to spare
the time before the termination Of
the short session next winter. \
It is considered highly probable that
some other members OF the Senate
committee on naval affairs may later
determine to accompany Mr.. Perkins
on his tour Of inspection. Many Of
them also take great, interest in the
establishment of q formidable naval
base at Pearl Harbor and would like
to see the location and surroundings
for themselves They would then be
in better position to frame legislas
ton and suggest increased appropria-
tions for the improvements now under
way.

the Virginia outlaws who turned a
courtroom into q mogue, may be
somewhere on the high seas bound
for Honolulu. according to Seattle
dispatch received this morning,
which stated that the fugitives had
been seen there but had disappeared,
leaving no trace. The suggestion
that they might be on their way to
Honolulu comes from the fact that
sidna Allen once lived here. coming
as q sailor before the mast, and it is
deemed entirely probable that, har-
ried and lounded over the United
states. he would attempt to seek
safety by again going TO sea with the
intention Of reaching China or some
other country in the Orient where
under an alias he would be sale for
time at least.
