Of
JAPANS MIKADO
Still SERIOUS
Local Japanese Offer Prayers
for Early Recovery of
YoShihito Harunomiya

In the temples of the Japanese OF
Honolulu prayers are being offered to-
day for the recovery of the emperor
of Japan, Yoshihito Harunomiya, who
is reported to be critically iii in his
Toxic mansion. Great apprehension
that the ruler of the Nipponese will
succumb to the disease, which has
brought about Inflammation OF the
lungs and raging fever, is felt by
his countrymen here.
AS early as yesterday when the Nip
pu Jill published an extra reporting
the emperor to be in critical condi-
ton, the Japanese assembled at the
Shinto and Buddhist temples, where
prayers were offered up for their ruler.
The temple doors have not been
closed since then.
News received -siais morning from
TOXIC, reporting the condition of the
emperor to be only slightly improved
caused added numbers to visit the
temples and join in the prayers. So
long as Harunomiya's life is in danger
will the supplications continue.
Several official cable messages, re-
IAC COuuAtAOA VI AOSutuASO
Harunomiya, 122nd emperor of Japan.
were received by Japanese Consul
General Eitake from the embassy at
Washington during the day. The lat
est, dated Washington, May 22nd, 10
a. m, reads:
Condition of emperor as follows:
At a. m. temperature 38.7, pulse 81,
respiration 80. At noon temperature
39.7, pulse Sc, respiration 80. At
p. M temperature 39.7, pulse 90."
The consul-general stated that this
news was very encouraging and that
his imperial majesty was gradually
improving.
If the condition of the emperor
does not improve, the wrestling
matches which were planned to be
held at the Athletic club tomorrow
will be indefinitely postponed. Two
champion wrestlers, who have toured
the world, defeating all comers, are
in the city and announcements were
made that they would meet any
wrestlers in the territory tomorrow.

GREAT BRITAIN
PLANS COALING
station HERE
Statement Made That Site Has
Been Selected and Loaded
Vessel is Enr0ute.

That the British government is not
only contemplating the establishment
of coaling station in the Hawaiian
Islands, but that steps already have
been taken towards the selection and
requirement OF suitable site for the
extensive plant, is the report that
reached Honolulu today through re-
liable source.
The declaration is now made that
the British government Is determined
to prepare for the increased traffic
of its merchant marine with the open
ing Of the Panama canal
A few days ago, a cable was re-
ceiyed in this city announcing the de-
parture of the British freighter Glen
artney from Cardiff, destined for Hon
olulu.
! The only Inference gained through
the receipt of rather vague and am.
bigucus message, is that this vessel
has been supplied with large ship
ment of coal for these islands. The
Glenartney is believed to have been
chartered some weeks ago while call
ing at Continental ports for the trip.
At last accounts the Glenartney was
loading at Cardiff, having reached
there April "a.
Inquiry at the Office Of T. Fl. Davies
& Co. this morning developed little
additional information concerning the
movements of the big British frefghter
O: the freighter Glenspean, which is
reported to have sailed from Cardiff
for Honolulu 36 days ago, and should,
according to present calculation, ar
rive here the first part of June.
1t is stated that in chartering
number of steamers to carry coal from
Cardiff to the Hawaiian islands, the
British government would confer a
distinct boom to trans-Pacific shipping
as well as all companies now planning
to operate freight and passenger car
riers in the Atlantic and Pacific by
wav of Panama.
Whether the Cardiff would serve as
a permanent source of supply for
coal at the proposed new station yet
emains a matter of doubt
s 1t has been pointed out that the
British Columbian coal fields with im-
mense deposits yet untouched, are
about 2400 miles distant from the Ha-
waiian islands, and it might be more
practical as well as economical tol
transport coal for the British station
from the Canadian Northwest

STEPS TAKEN TO
RECLAIM LANDS
ON BIG ISLAND

The initial step toward the recla-
nation of the low-lying Waiakea
lands at HiIo was taken this morn
ing at q meeting in. Secretary Mott
Smiths Office of the several depart
mental heads who must share In un-
raveling the red tape" that will
make the reclamation possible. At
the close of the conference Mott
Smith announced that the necessary
legal formalities are to be taken up
at once, and that dirt probably viii
be flying on the actual work early In
August.
While the tract in the Waiakea
district is not as large as the Kewalo
tract in Honolulu, on which similar
Improvement is progressing at the
present time. it lies in an important
location and when the necessary fills
are completed, is expected to prove
one of the most valuable pieces OF
real estate in the Crescent Ciy.
The procedure or lnaugurating the
improvement project is to be prac-
tIcally identical to that employed on
the Kewalo lands. The proposition or
filling in Waikamilo swamp has been
under consideration for about q year,
fSut the territory encountered difficulty
through the fact that 1t was unable to
compel owners of private lands TO
make improvements in line with those
which might be made on the govern
ment's land adjoining them. This
weakness in the statute was remedied
Ey the last legislature, and the private
owners there can now be forced to
make the same fills as those on the
territorial properties; otherwise the
territory is empowered to make them.

.SCHUMAN FIRM IS
PURCHASER OF
ASSOCIATED
Large Business Transfer Was
CoEsummated Through
Trust Company.

The most important business deal
OF some weeks was consummated yes
terday afternoon when the Associated
Garage Ltd, of this city, sold its in
terest in all of the new cars, access
sories and parts and merchandise on
hand to Gus Schuman, president and
treasurer of the Schuinan Carriage
Company The deal was effected
through the Waterhouse Trust Com
pany and was the result of negotia-
tions which have been going on for
several months past.
The transfer means tnat E. o., Hall
& Son, proprietors of the Associated
Garage, are going out OF the automO-
bile business after being prominent
factors in it for some years. 1t signi-
fies also rapid DEVELOPMENT in the
Schdman firm and Is taken as evi-
dence of intention to make consider
able extensions in the business at
once.
1t is understood that the transfer In
volved in the neighborhood of SIS, ,00O,
taking with it the actual stock on
hand and the good will' OF the busi-
ness.
The accounts receivable and all
other obligations due the Garage Com
bany, Ltd, will be payable to K. d.
Hall & Son, who, will also assume all
outstanding indebtedness of the Gar
age company.
E. II. Paris, manager OF z. o. Hall
G. Son, when seen regarding the trans
action, stated that his firm has de-
cided that the garage business re-
quires too much attention. With the
growth of our retail and wholesale
business, we have decided that all our
energy should be devoted to the gen.
eTal lines which we are now handling
and we cannot divert our attention to
an enterprise which requires so close
and intimate following up as does
the automobile business. This move
IS not made because OF the present
local conditions, or on account OF the
outlook of the sugar industry, for we
are all very hopeful of the outcome
IF national legislation. but is the result
OF a decision of our directors made
more than year ago that our grow
ing business needed all of our energy
and attention and that the handling oil
was too big an elephant
as side line.

MOTOCYCLECORPS
TO BE MUSTERED
in SHORTLY

II now seems likely that the pro-
posed motorcycle corps of the ma
tional guard will be mustered into
the territorial service in the near fu-
ture, by special authority of the
secretary of war. Twenty-eight men
are ready to take the oath. and with
the approval of General Funston to
back up the proposition, it is expect
ed that the war department will take
the special action required without
loss OF time.
Ordinarily new militia organiza-
ton cannot get the benefit of feder-
al appropriations for equipment, etc,
unless mustered in with the minimum
Of Semen, but as the proposed motor
cycle corps is something out of the
ordinary, and can be of incalculable
valtte to the regular troops in case of
hostilities here, and also as all the
men own their own machines and
will need little in the way of equip
ment, 1t is believed that authoriZa-
ton will be given for the organiza-
ton of the corps with but 2S men.
Wednesday night twelve would-be
gasoline soldiers gathered at national
guard headquarters and listened to a
short talk on the probable nature of
their work and duties. All expressed
their willingness to enlist in the ter
ritorial forces.
AS projected, the motorcycle corps
will specialize in signal work and will
be equipped with signal material.
For the present there will be one
commissioned officer with rank of
first lieutenant. and in all prohabili-
" +. M. Friesell, who has been the
prime mover in organizing the corps,
will get the appointment. The corps
will be divided into five squads, con-
sisting of four enlisted men and one
corporal each, and there will be one
sergeant for the organization.
A national guard order Will soon
be issued transferring First Eeuten-
ant James ID. Dougherty from the re-
tired to the active list of the guard,
and detailing him as chief signal Off
Ger. He will then have charge of
the administrative end of signal corps
development in the guard.

L. Tenney Peck, president of the
Honolulu Rapid Transit Il Land Co.,
announced yesterday afternoon that no
developments would be made by the
company, in the way OF extensions to
the railway lines, until congress had
favorably acted on the franchise grant
ed the transit company by the last
legislature.
Not until the company is assured
that its franchise will be passed by
congress will the projects which il
is reported TO have underway be car
ried out This announcement made
by President Peck will come as sur
prise TO many persons, who have been
anxiously awaiting to hear further
word on the extensions believed to be
contemplated by the tramway corpora
ti0n.
1--WE will do nothing" said Mr.. Peck,
until congress acts fagorably on the
franchise measure passed during. the
last session of the legislature. We
will remain i'm statu quo until then"
As IL is almost indisputable that the
approval OF the franchise will not be
undertaken by congress during its
present term, as matters OF nation
wide Importance are before 1t, con-
Stunning all the attention of the federal
lawmakers, the announcement made
by President Peck may be taken to
mean that for at least two years the
company will do nothsag toward ex-
tending. or doubletracking its lines.
The statements made by the head OF
the railway corporation were not
equivocal. lie did not mince words

in doubt. He made IL plain that until

WATSON HAILED
AS THE NEXT
GOVERNOR

Edward NJ. Watson is hailed as the
next governor by many prominent
local Democrats today, following the
receipt of news from Washington in
the last forty-eight hours that points
Enthusiastically to the fact that the Ha-
waiian attorney is being given special
consideration by President Wilson.
Several cablegrams that have reach
ed here recently have confirmed the
published dispatches that Watson has
seen the president and that Wilson's
attitude seemed to favor Watson's ap-
Dointment. This, together with the
news that Wilson is likely to make
a nomination soon, has been taken as
pretty good proof that Watson will be
be the name sent to the senate.
Watson's friends say that he cahled
here a day or two ago that he had
seen the president and considered his
prospects good, and close on the heels
of this cablegram came newspaper
message that Wilson will not wait
until September to name the new gov
crnor. This is believed to indicate
that Wilson is satisfied with Watson
and hopes to end the present Demo
cratic squabble at an early date
Secretary Lane, it is known, favors
the retention of Governor Frear in
office for several months longer, but
Watson's friends think that he has
personally satisfied Wilson regarding
his physical condition and that this
is what has caused Wilson's determ-
ination to name Governor Frear's sue
cessor soon" What Wilson means
by soon" is worrying good many
