The question of securing from con
gress at It's next session a suspension
of the Coastwise Shipping Law, as it
relates to the passage of passengers be-
tween mainland and Hawaiian ports on
vessels Of foreign registry, is yery
much to the fore again in Honolulu,
and, as stated in the notice, above, the
hRmbet Of commerce Is preparing to
secure the data upon which Hawaii
must rest it's ease. d.
Several years ago, by one vote in the
senate, the community was defeated in

the vote was taken placing executive

,assengers TO and from Hawaii were
divided on American steamers. Prob.
ably similar bill will be introduced
in the coming session of congress.
Everyone at all interested in the sub.
iect knows today that there is more
passenger business offering than the
steamship companies can take care Of.

IL is very necessary, in the interests
" Hawaii generally, that everyone who
has personal knowledge of steamship
conditions should present the chamber
of commerce, with statement Of the
facts. Hawaii faces an Noticeable
situation, should the Pacific Mail be
in earnest in its threat TO wind up its

to the fact that the company is in

Walter Dillingham; gave further proof
in the sixth period that he is a polo
player that can rate with any in the
world. He drove the ball into Oahu 5
goals for two points for. the Blue AMI

in this period that Helen c., and Carry

three points on the scoreboard, Collins,

a goal. Maui s stock went up bit

stood Oahu 10 and Maui .0l2 at the

beaten. the Maui men went into the
