PEN FOR JAPANESE.
S. F. Examiner, May 5.--"A bull
pen has been built for imprisoning
sailors of the Japanese liner Shintsu
Maru, which arrived from Honolulu
yesterday to load rough clear red
wood lumber cargo for Australian
ports. To prevent the reoccurrence of
assertions, which took place at Homo
lulu, the crew will not be placed in
irons as there, but the members will
be kept in portion of the main
deck boarded up with heavy timber.
The only gate is very heavy and
every night it will be secured with
paddock. An American Waterman will
be on duty night and day."

'The rate on eastbound cargo, that
destined for the Atlantic side, is the
same from San Diego and all other
ports as far north as the terminus of
the line at Seattle. Portland shippers
enjoy the same tariff as their COM
petitors on the Coast and as the COM
ing of the four large steamers means
that this port will have much more
space than with only the steamer
Falcon operating, It is expected that
there will be a big increase in the
movement by water. In the.pas the
