TOURIST ALREADY
BUSY ON PLAN
FOR MARKET

H. NJ. Gilbert, a prominent real es-
tate dealer and fruit grower of North
Yakima, Washington, who is through
passenger on the Hamburg-American
liner Cleveland accompanied by Mrs
Gilbert and seven children, said during
an interview this morning that while
he was in Honolulu he would make
arrangements to establish in this city
a market for the famous Yakima fruit
Mr. Gilbert has been engaged in the
fruit growing industry for many years
and now has several large apple and
peach orchards in the Yakima valley,
which is situated in the central part
of Washington a few hundred miles
from Seattle Before leaving on his
trip around the world, he sold a car
load of apples to the Cleveland for use
during the voyage. For some time he
has been intending to establish mar
ket for the fruit in Honolulu, and will
spend the two days which the Cleve-
lind remains at the port in making an
inv estigation of the market, prices,
storage facilities, etc, and it is expect
ed that upon his arrival home he will
Immediately begin shipping.
AS far as he has already Investigate
ed, he believes that his fruit will have
a large sale here, judging from the ex-
periences which other dealers have
had who have shipped Yakima fruit to
this city, and he also is of the opinion
that the grade of fruit which he will
ship here will be of much better
quality than that which is sold here
at the present time. Enormous crops
of peaches, apples and other fruits
are grown in the Yakima valley each
year, much of it being shipped to the
eastern cities and to Europe. Recently
a large shipment of apples was sent
to Australia. Mr.. Gilbert is bringing
500 boxes of apples with him, and a
fow of these will be displayed in this
city. During his trip, he will also
make an investigation of the cOndi-
ton of the market in the ORIENT.

tive to the annual conference meetings

He added that the Government had

between his line and the Hawaiian
American line, but that his line had
declined to enter the agreement on the
ground that it was violation of the

Schwerin, Ito force the Hawaiian line
to maintain it's rates, threatened ii 1t

line with the government behind 1t.
At present the Hawaiian line is oper-
ated under tariffs fixed by the govern
ment through the Panama Steamship
Company"
Schwerin said that when the Pan
anna Canal was opened his line as a
railroad-owned line would be forced
out of the trade. From talks with the
railroad men he believed they were in
different as to the provision barring
railroad-owned ships from the canal.
"The railroads don't care a snap
about it, he said.
Water rates through the canal, he
added, will be but nominally lower
than the transcontinental railway
rates, no matter what efforts were
made to regulate them.
Schwerin@ said that "if you wanted
to rip the railroads up the back" the
canal should have been left free to
all vessels, foreign or American.
Turn all the ships into >the canal, "
he said, and in a short time the
American railroads would go into the
hands of receivers. 3 But under the
present system any difference in the
rate will not benefit the consumer,
for it will be absorbed by the job
ber."'

lists and singers who excel-H. Bish-
aw, master of the ukulele; Henry Ka-
go, a basso profundo whose voice is
really remarkable; Dan Makaena, ten

and Hawaiian songs, and Ernest Kaai,
leader of the organization that has Wis

best dancers in the territory and d.
rected by Madam Puahi, who was d.
rectress of the dancers under King

SCHWERIN FAVCRS STEAMSHIPS
+. CONTROLLED AS RAILROADS ARE

WASHINGTON, Fcb.-A Govern
ment commission, similar 10 the
Interstate Commerce Commission, to
supervise rate and traffic agreements
among shipping companies, was re-
commended today TO the shipping
trust investigating committee Of the
house by r. p. Schwerin, vice-presi-
dent of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company as the only feasible means
for the governmental regulation CT
shipping. Schwerin said the govern
ment regulation of rates would ruin
the shipping business.
I'VE must be able to make or change
a rate on a seconds notice." he said
In order to meet changing trade con-
ditions and in order 10 compete for at
tractiVe freight
Pacific Mail in Danger.
Schwerin said his line controlled by
the so-called Hartman railroad lines
would be forced out of the trade by
the restriction against railroad-owned
shfps in the Panama canal act, and
would be embarrassed further If Con
gress passed the Wilson bill, which, in
effect, would bar Chinese crews from
United States steamers.
Sehwerin suggested that a Govern
Eent Commission, if created, should
hive the power to supervise rate
agreements, rebate contracts and traf.
fe division agreements and to correct
them If they were unfair. He was
spirited in his criticism of the attitude
Of the Government toward United
State0 shipping, saying that on the Pa
cffic Coast United States ships were
forced to compete with japanese lines,
subsidized by the Japanese Govern
inent and given every possible aid BY
the Government in their business.
Denies Rate Agreement.
r. p. Schwerin denied that there ex-
listed a rate agreement between his
company and the Kosmos Steamship
Company as to rates on coffee from
Central America.
The State Department is inform
cd, said Chairman Alexander. that a
contract exists between your line AMI
the Kosmos Line" re..a -
Then the State Departments infor-
nation is wrong" said Schwerin. We
have no agreement with the Kosmos
Ike, either as to physical division Of
traffic or as to rates. Some years gao
the Kosmos line began rate war. The

TOXIC, Feb. 12-Although the an
cry rioters who on Monday tore down
six offices of newspapers supporting
Prince Katsura and his bureaucratic
followers, have dispersed and Toxic is
much Quieter today than yesterday,
still rumors are current that another
outbreak might possibly occur, and
uneasiness prevails throughout the
city.
Anticipating that fresh trouble
might be the result, the streets OF
Toxic are patrolled day and night by
soldiers and gendarmes and police.
The residence of Prince Katsura in
particular is heavily guarded against
any possible attack on the part of the
rioters.
A lengthy conference of the gen
ros" or Elder Statesmen was held in
the imperial palace Tuesday after
noon. Prince Yamagata, Prince Oya-
ma, Prince Katsura, who has just ten
dered his resignation as premier:
Marquis Saionji, former premier, and
Count Gombei Yamamoto, once minis
ter of the navy. attended the confer
ence and conferred in the hope that
they might select a new premier. In
the course of the conference Prince
Yamagata begged Marquis Saionji to
accept the premiership, and to form
a new cabinet. To this request Mar
quis Saionji declined to give favor
able answer, but is reported as still
considering it. Marquis MatSugata
and Marquis Inouye, both 'genros",
were unable to attend the conference
on account of illness, Marquis Inouye
suffering from a stroke of paralysis
but his condition is reported improv-
ing.
The general belief here is that
Count YamamotO will accept the pre-
miership and form a new ministry.
