COURTESY ORDER
STRICT, SAYS
M'LEAN

Japanese or other nationalities
travelling as deck passengers in inter
Island steamers are treated with uni
form courtesy. say officers in the
company, when seen today. The COM
plant coming from NJ. Negoro, secre-
tary OF the Japanese Society of Ha-
wal, brought to the attention Of the
public utilities commission yesterday
afternoon, complaining that deck pas
sengers were ill-treated. is today de-
clared not founded upon fact.
This is the first time to my knowl-
edge where complaint has ever been
made by anyone of the treatment ac-
corded deck passengers on lnter-lsland
steamers" said j. Ia Mclean, vice.
president and general manager, and
you may be assured that II any pas
senger has not been treated right by
any of our employees we will do ev-
erything in our power to take such
measures as are necessary to prevent
such thing happening In the future.
The policy of the InterIsland
Steam Navigation Company has al
ways been to accord its passengers,
deck or cabin. every possible courtesy
and our officers and men are contin-
ually being instructed to do everything
for their comfort. or course you will
understand that owing to the size OF
our steamers and the limited space
some of. them have for deck passen-
gers, 1t is often impossible for our offi-
GERS and men to go from one part Of
the steamer to another without step
ping around or over the deck passen-
gers and in doing so it Is barely pos
sible that someone may have been
stepped on, but feel sure that none
of our employees would wilfully do any.
thing to cause the passengers to feel
that they were being mistreated, said
Mr.. Mclean
As to the regrettable accident
which occurred at Lahaina, In which
one Of our best and most experienced
boats crews was involved, this only
goes to show the necessity Of extend
ing the wharf at, McGregor's at the
earliest possible moment, for Lahaina,
even at best, is getting to be risky
port at which to land passengers,
whereas IL the wharf at McGregors
were extended, as authorized by the
last legislature, there would be no dif-
ficuity In landing passengers there
safely whenever weather conditions at
Lahaina made it unsafe to attempt
landing there"

DRUMRIGHT PERSON
DEPARTS SUDDENLY
j. L. Crawford Found in Kansas City
After Absence OF Several
Days,

Special to The World
DRUMRIGHT, Aug. 12-What for
a time seemed mystery TO the Of
ficias of the Grant Lumber company
of this city and Oilton was cleared up
Wednesday morning when telegram
was received from j. l.. Crawford at
Kansas city, stating that he would re
turn and resume his work as book
keeper of ahe Oilton yard
Crawford left Oilton Sunday morn
ing and was not heard from until the
telegram was received. His wife was
greatly worried over his mysterious
disappearance and together with the
officials of the lumber company was
making diligent search for him.
His books were examined and found
to be balanced and correct, not one
cent missing or thing wrong which
would cause him TO leave without Civ
ing notice. This added more to the
belief that he had met with foul play
and several reports were received
that he had been found murdered, but
these proved to be false. The officers
at Drumright received a report Tues
day morning that Crawford had been
found two miles north of Oilton with
his head completely severed from his
body. This report vas also without
foundation after an investigation had
been made.
Crawford gave no reason for leav-
ing and causing worry to both his
family and the company. He has
relatives in Kansas City, Mo, from
whence the telegram was received.
