SECURE PROMISE OF AID.
Governor Tells Mr.. Davis VIII Name
Men to Visit Exposition.

Richmond, Feb. 12.-Warren Jeffer-
son Davis, of San Diego, special COM
missioner of the Panama California
exposition, has secured the promise Of
Governor Mann to name commission
10 visit the site of the exposition and
report on the desirability of an appro-
p-iation by Virginia for an exhibit.
Mr.. Davis expressed himself yes
to-day as much pleased with the sue
cess of his trip to his native state, in
asrnuch as he has secured from the
governor and from Governor-elect
Hatfield, of West Virginia, all that he
asks at this time. -
The San Diego exposition will be
held during the year 1915, the climate
O.. the Southern part of the State
making possible an all year round eX-
position. The San Francisco expo
s;tion, commemorative of the open
ing of the Panama Canal will be held
during the same year.
San Diego will not attempt to
rival San Francisco in the effort to
promote a worlds fair" said Mr.. Da-
Wis last night. "Nor is it the inten-
ton to duplicate any one OF the expo
s..ions previously held. When the en-
t.rprise was preached in September,
1909, and when it was finally decided
that the completion of the Panama Ca
ra! iu 1915 would be fitting oppor-
tunity to commemorate the beginning

determined that the undertaking
should be in perfect keeping with the
UNIQUE character Of that civilization

Consequently the Panama-Callfornla

thing different from all other expo
s;tions. 1t will be different in its
structure it's scope, its character and
its contents.

BATTLING 'MIKAHALA MYSTERY
CLEARED away This MORNING

The great "Mikahala Mystery" that
appeared to BATTLE the understanding
of a certain clique of local waterfront
ers yesterday has been dissipated like
mist before a morning sun.
The lnter-lsland steamer Mikahala,
On the Maui and Molokai run, made a
quick dash into Honolulu Thursday
night, remained here for perhaps an
hour. and then steamed for her regu-
lar ports at an early hour Friday
morning, leaving in her wake a little
delegation of much surprised shipping
men, who at once came to the conclu-
sion that the so-called strike had as
sGmed a most serious attitude.
The Mikahala made a special trip
10 Honolulu on Thursday for the sole
purpose of bringing Mrs. J. McCorris-
ION of Molokai to the bedside of her
daughter, Mrs. John lucas, who was
obliged to go under a serious opera
tion at Queens Hospital, because Of
intestinal trouble.
Mrs. Lucas was pronounced by her
physicians as in an extremely critical
condition. At a consultation of the
members of the family, it was decided
that the mother and other members
of the family be summoned to Homo
lulu as quickly as possible.

the promotion committee rendered the

plans decided upon at the meeting,
the reception next Wednesday morn

of Honolulu stamped upon the minds
of the passengers.
According to the latest reports the
big liner will arrive off port early
Wednesday morning, and will be met
by the promotion committee launch
IN which will be Secretary Wood, pos
sibly Mayor Fern, and a number o.
Hawaiian girls, who will board the
vessel and distribute les among the
five hundred passengers. The two
days that the vessel will remain in
Honolulu will provide ample time for
the passengers to see the island. and
in addition to this a long list of on
tertainments has been prepared On

ENTIRE MILITIA
COMPANY in
..-.s ..a ~.
JAIL

An entire company of the National
Guard of Hawaii is now in Jail, at La
haina, Maui.
However, this is nothing against Of
fieers and men, but rather something
that should go on the credit side Of
the ledger, for they are occupying
quarters in the county hotel of their
own volition, and because they are a
game lot of men. In short, the La
haina company, N. G. H. has for years
past been using two cells of the coun.
ty Jail for an armory.
Relief is at hand, for Lahaina is
soon to have an armory building and
a good one at that. Next Monday the
superintendent of public works will
open tenders for the construction Of
the new armory, and work will be
rushed as fast as the law and the lab
or situation allows, to get the citizen
soldiers decently housed, and reward
them for the faithful performance Of
duty in the fact of every discourage
ment and adverse condition.
Ten thousand dollars is available
for the armory, and to Judge by plans,
the Lahaina men will be we'll fixed
when the building is completed. The
hall will be 120 so feet, and besides
a company room with lockers for the
men. there will bea concrete storage
room for the safekeeping of property.
There will be a raised stage at one
end of the hall, shut off by sliding
doors instead of curtain, so that un-
der ordinary conditions it can be used
as a reading and club room for the
men. In the near future it is hoped
that billiard and pool tables can be
set up there as part of the social
equipment of the organization.
The lot on which the new armory
is to be built is on the beach road,
centrally located, and it is expected
that as a social hall for entertain
ments of all sorts, it will be much in
demand 1t is near enough to the
beach to give the men bathing facili-

The manage ent of the Inter-Island
Steam Navigation Company was ap,
pealed to, and wireless messages were
dispatched to the several island ports
with a view to catching either the
steamer Claudlne or the Helene.
The Claudine was an arrival at day
break Thursday. but owing to the
boilers having been blown down, it
was found impossible to send that
vessel out on a special trip on such
short notice. The steamer Helene
was reported es working cargo on
windward Hawaii, and to bring her
in on an extra mission could only be
accomplished with considerable delay.
The Mikaha!a was finally reache."
through the medium of wireless, and
the steamer haStened to a landing on
Molokai where Mrs. McCorriston and
members of her family took passage
for the capital. Upon landing the
McCorriston party the Mikahala was
Immediately dispatched to Molokai
and Maui to complete her call at reg
ular ports.
The attempt upon the part of the
dissatisfied wing of the local harbor
of masters and mates to make capital
out of the special trip Of the Mikahala
is characterized by officers in the
company as silly in the extreme.

being without any foundation at all. /"
/. Judge Humphreys issued another
'one of his pyrotechnic statements this
morning, in which he declared that the
captains are going to win. He said:
This fight Is not finished by long
shot. We are not going to use either
slung-shots or brass knuckles, but we
are going to win; people who think
otherwise are without any knowledge
kof our resources. We have long since
abandoned all hope of being treated
fairly, either as a harbor or as indi-
viduals. To expect fair treatment
from that crowd Is like expecting a

1 Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
H1LO, T. H., Feb. From the
manner in which the strike against
the Inter-Island Steam Navigation.
Company is progressing at the pres
ent time, ii appears practically cer-
tain that the captains who resigned
are defeated and that the company
has the situation well in hand. There
has teen on strike on the local yes
sells, whatever, and they have been
worked along as if there had been on
difficulty. Yesterday it was rumored
that change in the command of the
Kauai was caused by the strike, but
this is denied by Manager Mckay Of
the company, who says that the
change was one which had been con-
templateti before the troubles came
up. In this case Captain Self has
been instructed to report at Honolulu
for orders, 1t being rumored that he
will take command Of the Maui. Mate
Mayne, who has been with the COM
pany for some time past, takes the
Kauai.
When the Kilauea arrived yester-
day morning, taking the place of the
Mauna Kea, which is being laid up to
have her boilers cleaned as is GUS
tomary every few months, Captain
Freen1en was in charge, but all three
mates under him were strangers, be-

noon today. He added: Eve are go,

According to the same authority re-
