SIRATHARDLEIS
FREAK ship in
WIRELESSUSE
Credited With Communicating
With British WarshipS but
Has No Apparatus

If Captain J. N Lamont, master OF
tthe British freighter, Strathardle
which is now at quarantine wharf
awaiting a berth to discharge a ship
ment OF Australian coal. carried on a
communication at long range with the
British battleship Australia and the
cruiser Warengo until the collier
reached an anchorage at Honolulu
the skipper must have employed men
tai telepathy or some other form OF
occult art, as the Strathardle Is today
found unprovided with wireless tele-
graph equipment of any sort.
This vessel, it will be remembered
escaped the penalty exacted by the
United States authorities while on the
coast for having no wireless equip.
ment, it being claimed that the freight.
er carried a complement OF men less
than that prescribed in the regula.
tions.
Captain Lamont is credited by the
morning paper with having kept up a
constant communication by wireless
with the British war vessels, which
are alleged to have conveyed the
freighter and its coal from Newcas-
tie to point within a short distance
of the islands.
1t was following the arrival Of the
British freighter Strathardle that the
report gained prominence in Honolulu
that a fleet of war craft was maneu-
vering outside the limits of the port
awaiting the steaming of the German
cruiser Nurnberg.
Observers at Diamond Head and
BARRIERS Point failed to note the ap.
pearance Of any such vessels, despite
the recurring rumors prevailing along
the business district today.
The Strathardle will remain in quar-
antine pending the dispatch of the
Norwegian steamer Henrik Ibsen now
at the Inter-Island coal wharf. The
steamer is believed will be ready to
steam for California coast on Satur-
day or Sunday. The Strathardle will
then take the place vacated by the
Ibsen.

new BALLOTS TO
BERESllT FROM
SPIRITED Fight
Democrats Divided as to Le-
gality of Form Arranged and
Printed at Clerks instance

For three-quarters of an hour this
morning Republican, Democratic and
Progressive representatives wrangled
between themselves and with Terri
torial Secretary Thayer, Attorney
General Stainback, City and County
Attorney Cathcart and City and Coun-
ty Clerk David Kalauokalani over the
form in which tie ballots for the pri-
mary election have been printed. The
discussion, which was held at the ter
ritorial secretary's office, ended a few
minutes after noon in a compromise
that will result in reprinting all the
ballots for Oahu and Kauai, and posi-.
bly, Maui, though the Maui sample
ballots have not yet been received
and their form is not yet known. The
Hawaii county ballot was approved as
to form, and viii be permitted to re-
main unchanged. II
The reprinting of the Oahu ballot,
according to the compromise form
agreed upon, will cost the county an
additional $500. There were two OBJ
jections to it, as raised by Secretary
Thayer in a letter which he sent to
County Clerk Kalauozalani yesterday,
but one protest was finally dropped
by the secretary today, following the
compromise on the other .,. -
An interesting feature of the situa.
tion today is that NJ c.. Pacheco,
chairman of the Democratic territorial
central committee, while not present
at the meeting in Thayer's office, has
taken position directly opposite to
that of McCandless and Thayer. Pa
checo says he believes the present
form is proper, entirely fair and le.
gal according to the primary law
which stipulates how they shall be
prepared. H. III -. J. &.
The compromise reached is that In
the reprint the English sentence
Vote for One Only" at the leit-hand
side of the ballot, shall be set half
way between the edge and center of

TO MANUFACTURE HOG
 SERUM IN LITTLE ROCK
UNIVERSITY PLANS MOVE TO REDUCE COST OF CHOLERA
 REMEDY.

Little Rock, May 2S.-The St; te University has just completed a.r. engagements with the Veil Packing Co. of Little Rock to construct on the grounds of the company plant for the manufacture of hog cholera se- rum. By having this in connection with the packing company the hogs necessary for the manufacture of t.n serum can be had at a very low price, and the cost of the serum to the farm CTS will be greatly reduced Every year cholera kills hogs worth millions of dollars, the total loss for the whole country being estimated last year at eight million dollars. A large part of this loss occurred in Arkansas. The serum, used in time, is a sure pre- ventive of the disease.
 Plans for the building of the new plant are being drawn by the Uni versity engineering department and the construction work will begin at once.
