down, alighted on the bald mans
shoulder. The bald man grabbed his
ear and in his sleep hollered, LET go.

But he wasn't the only henpecked

TOXIC, December 4.-One accident
marred the ceremonies of the grand
naval review held on Toxic Bay today.
About four o'clock, just as the review
program ended, Lieutenant Araki of
the Japanese aero corps made two
Ilghts over the bay. The last attempt
was successful until he reached tho
water when he tried to raise his aero,
plane, but the waves dashed against the
machine and upset the aviator. Before
help could reach him he went under the
water, strapped TO his machine, and
drowned.
lieutenant Araki was one of the we'll,
known aviatOrs of Japan and during
the day had made a number Of spec tae,
ular flights. His first effort brought
out cheers from the crowds around the
bay and in an effort TO make a down,
ward glide near the water in his last
flight his aerOplane refused to respond
and his death brought to the close a
day that was memorable in the history
of Japan. I..
AS pOsthumous honor the Emperor
decorated the aviator with the Order

The review began at nine o clock this
morning and at that hour the harbor
was one mass of humanity. Boats

that 100000 spectators witnessed the
review. Business was at a standstill

Morse Says Line Has Vessels To
Divert Here To Keep Sugar
Moving >

c. P. Morse, genetal freight agent
for the American Hawaiian line, who
returned to Honolulu in the Great North,
era from San Francisco and New York
Friday morning, said that enough
steamers would be diverted to the Ha.
waiian service to give the usual ten.
day schedule from honolulu and Hilo to
New York via the STRAIT of Magellan
now being used during the Panama
Canal blockadcs.
Long Interim in January
The company has ships at its disposal
to send here, Mr.. Morse said, but he
does not expect any vessels between
the Panaman, due January 3 from the
Sound, and the Ohioan, due January
81 from San Francisco There will be
a gap here which would require two
steamers to fill, and Mr.. Morse said the
company could give no ships then, as
there were none on this side to send.
1t is expected, however, that vessels
will be punched, after the Ohioan, to
handle the sugar crop. 1t Is out of the
question even to ship freight offering
at New York overland to San. Fran.
cisco and thence to the Islands, because
of shortage of steamers on this side.
The first to come via Magellan will
be the ArIZOnan, due from San Fran
cisco December Is.
A recent statement by an Am riran
Hawaiian official in San Franc SEQ was
that the earnings of the company had
been cut in half by tho canal slides.
Mr.. Morse said that he had not heard
any financial details of this nature, Du
that it was plain the company had lost
much. The steamers cannot carry their
usual sugar cargOes because of the need
for increased bunker Oil, reductions be
ing as much as 1000 tons in some cases,
and oil will be more expensive in South
America. These are only two factors.
Vessels are en- route longer, as another.
Floridan to Come
One of the vessels to come about
February will be the new Florblan, now
Icing built with the Artisan and Ar
borean at Sparrow Point. She will
handle about the same cargo as the
Pennsylvania. She will be sent to help
the sugar movement.
AdvIces received by the New York
Office, Mr.. Morse said, were that the
canal would not be opened until about
April More recent advicesi in press
d"snatrhes from Panama said that slides
continued, and it may be later even than
April. The All. is the largest single
user of the canal and restoration of the
Panama route is highly important to it
and to the sugar movement to the east
coast.
Tioing up Of many steamers by the
blockades has caused great activity in
the charter market, Mr.. Morse said,
with high rates prevailing for Europe
and South America.
