STRAINED RELATIONS"
WITH j. s. HAVE BEGUN,
SAYS A JAPANESE PAPER

HONOLULU, Nov. 24.-The refusal
for the second time of Gov. Pinkham
to permit Japanese aviator to make
an advertised flight over Honolulu has
thoroughly exasperated the Japanese
colony, which today expressed its ir-
ritation through the native press.
S. Sheba, editor of the Hawaii Shin
po, published an editorial in his news
paper denouncing what he said was
the implication of the refusal-namely,
that the Japanese were suspected of
espionage, and that their friendship
was not wanted in Hawaii The epi
sode, he said marked the beginning
of a period of. strain relations.
The aviator was preparing to make
his fight today, as permission had
been cabled from Washington, but
Gov. Pinkham interjected an execu-
tive ban last night, intimating he did
so on orders from Washington.

roads to Determine ProportiOnate
Rates For Hauling Cotton to Sea-
port Towns.
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 24.-At
the conclusion of it's session today it
was announced that the Interstate
Commerce commission has authorized
railroads operating in the southeastern
territory, without observing the long
and short haul provision of the law,
to establish proportionate rates and
regulations for the transportation of
cotton from Atlanta to Virginia cities
and to South Atlantic and Gulf ports
The effect of today's ruling is to
temporarily settle the question of cot
ton rates in the southeastern territory
and effect 2l adjustment which here
tofore has seemed impossible until the
appellate courts have passed upon the
validity of recently enacted laws.

LIFE GUARDS FIGHT ALL
NIGHT To SAVE PEOPLE
ABOARD GROUNDED SHIP

weather. 1t is dubious as to whether a
single soul still aboard the ship will
be saved.
The three passengers and two sea-
men who managed to make their way
ashore in spite of the high waves tell
narrowing tales of night or horror.
Many women and children are aboard
they state, and their helplessness
makes it all the harder for those
aboard.
While the captain of the ship and
twelve other passengers were rescued
this morning by means of the breeches
buoy, twenty or more are still aboard.
1t is understood that the captain or
dered women and children first"
when communications were establish
ed with the~shore. Shortly after the
thirteen were rescued the cable con-
meeting the ship with the land broke,
and all communications were cut off.
The life saving guards are making
heroic efforts to re-establish commun-
ications. They want to save those still
aboard.
Those who have been saved tell a
story of heroism displayed by the wire
less operator that places him in the
same mich of fame with Jack Binns,
the hero of the Titanic. This man re-
fuses to leave the boat until every
other one is rescued and continues to
fash his IS. o. s." abroad The last
message received from him read:
TRY once more, hurry, hurry; the
water is gaining on US, and it will
soon be all over"
1t is doubtful if efforts to save those
aboard will be rewarded, as the ship
is sinking fast and the sea still con-
tinues high.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 24.-The
steam schooned Hanalei which has
been ashore on Duxbury reef since
yesterday at noon, broke in two early
this morning Fifty-eight souls were
aboard when the big ship broke asun-
der. Three passengers and two sail
ors made their escape by swimming
ashore. Late this morning thirteen
others, including Captain j. Carey,
were rescue by the life guards.
The U. S. life guards stationed near
the reef have been making desperate
efforts to save the other persons
aboard. In spite of high seas which
make it impossible to launch a life
boat, the coast heroes made several eff
forts during the night to establish
some sort of communication with those
aboard.
The position of the ship makes it
impossible to render aid from the
shore as long as the high seas con-
tinue. The only hope for the schooner
seems to be for the schooner to OUT
last the storm an wait for calmer
