(Special Star Bulletin Correspondence
HILo, Dec. 17.-Although many sail.
ing vessels are nowadays equipped
with wireless apparatus, one of the
many had never, until Monday last,
entered Hilo Bay so fitted out. The
first windjammer with radio outfit
on board to enter Hilo harbor is the
bark w. B. Flint, which is from Port
Townsend to Hilo, loaded with lumber
consigned to H. Hackfeld & Co. The
vessel has full wireless plant but,
on this voyage, has no wireless opes-

BIG HILL SHIP HAS
MORE TOURISTS
Than BEFORE

of the 359 cabin passengers who
are now coming to Honolulu in the
Great Northern, at least $50 are visit
ors who would never have seen Hawaii
had 1t not been for the Great Northern
and the company's policy of adyertis-
ing the islands," said Fred. l.. VALID
ron, president of Fred. l.. Waldron.
Ltd, Honolulu agents for the Hill
liner, today.
Yesterday the local agents received
wireless from Capt. A. Altman, the
liners commander, giving the number
of cabin passengers on board this trip
as 359. This is 100 more than the
number brought by the Great
Northern on her first regular call here
on the triangular run, December 3.
Then she had only 220 first and second
cabin passengers.
The Great Northern is due to ar
rive at Hflo at o'clock Wednesday
morning, and to dock here, at Pier 4.
at 10 o'clock Thursday morning. The
radio from Capt. Altman gave the lin
er's freight cargo for Honolulu as S8o
tons, and mail for here to be 354 bags.
There are IS autos and III bags OF
mail for Hilo.
In commenting upon the compar-
atfvely small amount Of freight the
Great Northern is bringing, 9S5 tons,
the local agents this morning said
that II Honolulans should wake up
some fine morning to find the Great
Northern no longer on the Honolulu
run, the lack of freight patronage from
the coast here would be one OF the
reasons. BY the close of this month,
the Great Northern will have brought,
In two voyages. total of 579 pas
sengers to Honolulu.
THE Great Northern should have
from 1900 to 1000 tons of freight for
Honolulu on this trip" said Mr.. Wal
dron. Honolulu merchants and other
shippers are not doing their share
when out of all the freight shipped
here from the coast they give the
Great Northern hardly a thousand
tons" The liner can carry approx
mately $500 tons dead weight.

the nomination committee for the nomna-
elected.
The election of officers for the league
and the Alabama State Fair and Exhibit
association, which in reality is the same
organization as the Business Mems league,
will take place at luncheon meeting to
be held at the headquarters of the league
Thursday noon. at which time the nomi-
mating committee will report.
Speculation as to who the new officers
of the league will be SO far appears to be
little other than rumor. One report, how
ever, to the effect that Robert A. Brown,
present president. will be reelected. APP
pears to be given considerable credence.
1t is stated that there Is a considerable
sentiment in favor of Mr.. Brown on ac-
count of the fact that during the two
weeks of the fair this year an extreme
and prolonged period of rainy weather
curtailed to a great extent the success
which the 1914 fair otherwise admittedly
would have attained, and on these same
grounds it is reported Mr.. Brown might
be inclined to give his time and energy to
a second year of the presidency--a job
which, it is well known, entails much
time and labor. little glory and no re-
Enumeration.
In the event that 1t is decided to elect
a new man president, reports have been
in circulation for sometime that George
Blinn would probably be the man decided
upon. Mr.. Blinn for years has been
closely associated with the Business
Mems league and the fair association.

ORDER FOR 5000 TONS OF
RAILS PLACED BY PEYTON

der given here yesterday The line inva.
riably buys its rails In Birmingham and
1t Is the opinion that this line, which Ii
controlled by tho Louisville and Nash
vile. will give an order for greater
tonnage and thereby help out the Bir-
mingham district similar to the service
recently rendered by the parent organ
ization in this regard.
In addition to the Nashville, Chatta-
nooga and st. Louis order there Is a
strong expectation that the Southern
Railway company will shortly award a
contract for rails to this district, which
will exceed $4,000 tons. And the Frisco
lines are said to be almost ready to make
plans for the future which will include
the placing of an order for rails in Bir-
mingham.
The industrial situation to every ap-
pearance is getting better every day.
The operations at Ensley are expected
to continue on the present schedule for
some weeks. By the end of that period
1t is believed that the Tennessee com
pany will have a sufficient number d

One of the largest Stag orders given

the Woodward company by the Alabama
Great Southern. 1t calls for 100000 tons

Southern on It's double track work be-

from York to Meridian. The double track
work Is about completed and will be ready
during the next week or so for Stag for

The Alabama Great Southern plan is to
so thoroughly ballast the track with Stag
as to enable operations ahead of the gem

believed that the Alabama Great Southern
will be able to inaugurate the proposed

sheriff of late years. He stated that he
would have much liked to have made
more appointments. but his force was lin
tied and he could only appoint such as
were necessary for the work of the office,

been left out for these reasons.

for Sheriff McAdory that have been re-
tanned are Chris Hartsfleld. Fred McDuff,
H. f. Rape, and Bob Howard, all of
whom are well trained and experienced

firm of young attorneys, who have made
an enviable record in the practice of their
profession, have been retained as attor-
neys for the new sheriff. While the list
of appontees is complete for the time
being, other appointments may be made
later.

Ensley division of the steel plant with
whom he was associated when ne was
engaged in the business of making steel
in this country.
Mr.. Woolsey said yesterday that Mr..
Tutwiler was progressing very finely

come one of the greatest steelmakers
of that country unless he tired of the
work and returned to the states. Mr..
WooIsey said the Birmingham man
was very popular in India.
