Army OFFICERS
GO BY Liners

There are few army officers here
and some civilians entitled to govern
ment transportation, who will have to
travel to the Coast by the regular lin
ers for the next two months, owing to
the unusual crowdinG of the army
transports scheduled to leave Manila
May Is and June 10.
There Is very little chance of any
Honolulans being granted transporta-
ton on either of these ships, as large
detachments of soldiers, together with
their officers, are scheduled to return
to the homeland, and there will prac-
ticaIly be no staterooms empty when
all the officers who are under orders
have been assigned.
ON the transport to arrive here about
June the entire Second Cavalry and
the Nineteenth Infantry will he trans
fcrred to their stations in the United
States, and on the July transport the
entire Sixth and Ninth Infantry will
he transferred When these troops
have left Manila practically all the
soldiers who are TO be sent home in
large numbers will have been trans
ferrcd, for II win be some time before
any large detachment will leave the

SAYS He
didn't SAY IT T.
OF HAWN. TRUST

Realty Expert James w. Pratt, in
the course of his cross-examination In
the Mahuka.site case in Federal Court
this morning said he had fixed slid.
ing scale" of valuations for the land
sought by tho Government, and that
while he set the property occupied by
the Hawaiian Trust Company at SIG
per square foot, he would estimate the
adjoining land, occupied by Il. o. Hall
& Son, at SIS, and the lot on the cor.
ner at S23 per square loot.
The statement credited to him yes.
terday that the Hawaiian Trust Com.
pany, by virtue of its leasehold, had
no actual interest in the property II
occupies, caused Pratt to attempt a
vigorous denial in court today. He
vowed he had only meant to say that
they had no direct interest in the real
ty. not as a denial of their interest in
the leasehold; he declared their inter.
est was worth nothing from selling
standpoint, but that they were entitled
to damage from the Government.
Attorney Olson completed his testi.
mony this morning for the Austin es.
tate, and as the attorneys for the 9th.
er interests were not prepared to pre-.
sent their experts, the hearing was
continued TO $3.50 o'clock next Monday
morning. The long postponement was
partly due to the fact that Thursday
is a holiday, and that Friday is the
last of the month, when the business
men of the Jury desire to attend to the
month-end business.

Philippine Customs Find Much Dope.
A 100000 shipment of opium was
corulscated by Philippine Island Gus

ure of the Togo Kisen Kaisha liner
Ghiyo Maru from Hongkong. When

she had been for general overhaul.
ing at the Kowloon docks, her ballast
consisted principally of prepared
opium, the customs secret service
agents removing 1000 tins of poppy
weed from the double bottoms of the
vessel soon after her arrival.
new method of seCreting the drug
had been devised by the would-be
smugglers, The dope, in the conven.
uonal small tins, was removed from
the packing cases and laid in an even
row along the bottom plates of the
ship, after which they we're covered
with cement, which in turn was given
a liberal coat Of red lead.
Under ordinary circumstances, this
would have been one of the most sue.
cessful Illegal importations in recent
years, but the agents OF the custom
house at HOngkOng were posted and
tipped of the local agents as soon as
the vessel set sail with her valuable
COntraband.
The value of the shipment Is in the
neighborhOOd of 10000 pesos, exact
figures being rather doubtful owing to
the deprecated market for opium OF
the Shaking variety.

when the pier is not occupied by an.
other vessel II often happens that the

II Is the conviction of shipping men

Moreover, II is the opinion of these
men that two more piers would be full.
