Of Ships
MAKING PORT
GROWING

Deep-sea tonnage visiting Honolulu
in the fiscal year ending June so. 1915,
it is predicted will show an increase
of almost 200 vessels over that of the
year previous. From records kept at
the federal customs house. prepared
by Boarding Officer Louis B. Reeves,
a total of 500 vessels, sail and steam,
from the Pacific coast and foreign
ports have called at Honolulu since
January /, 1918. This number in
cludes less than half dozen war YES
sels. +.
Panama canal has been potent fac
tor in the increase shown at the port
The customs staff is much hampered
by lack of officers to cope with the
larger amount of business now thrust
upon the port since the waterway was
opened to traffic. Forty-two steam
ers, plying to or from the isthmus,
were entered and berthed at terrftor-
ial wharyes where they we're coaled
before steaming to their destination.
1t is significant that but one tramp
steamer out Of the total left Honolulu

by way of the canal.
The record kept for business through
the waterway does not include the
regular trips completed by vessels in
the American-Hawaiian service which
use Panama canal exclusively in car
rying cargoes to and from New York
and the Hawaiian islands. II. g. H.. +.
Customs boarding officers visited 40
vessels in January, 40 in February, 43
in March, So in April, 81 in May, and
SO in June. June, 1916, is credited
with being the banner month.
May brought 10 tramp steamers
from Panama, which called here to
coal before proceeding to the Far East
This was the record, with nine steam
ers in June close second.
Collector M. A. Franklin is now en-
gagged in the preparation of an elab-
crate annual report to be forwarded
to the U. S. treasury department at
Washington showing the extent of in
crease in shipping at Honolulu.

RUSSIAN FORCES
ASSUME OFFENSIVE
TIDE OF BATTLE TURNING
AGAINST THE GERMANS IN
NORTH POLAND.
Plan OF Teutons to Smash the Rus
sian Forces Seems to Have
Failed and Renforcements are
Being Rushed Forward.

With Russian successes in the re
gion OF Przasnysz, North Poland, and
Kolomea, East Galica; the success
full progress OF the operations of the
allied fleet in the Dardanelles and
the decision of the allied govern.
ments to stop all shipping to and from
Germany Austria and Turkey, 1t is
believed here that new phase of the
war is about to be entered upon.
While the success reported by Pet
rograd covers only a small portion OF
the long front in north Poland and
the Germans have been able TO record
"A counter success near Kolno, the gen
eral impression among military men
in London is that not only has the
German offensive in the north ex
hausted itself, but the tide is turn
ing in favor of the Russians, who,
with railways at their back, have
been able to bring up more reinforce
ments than the invading army. whose
communications, after Germany ter
ritory is left, must cross county OF
marshes and overlooking rivers.
Much more fighting. however, must
be waged before a final decision Is
reached. and in the meantime the bat
tie has been resumed in central Pc
land. where the Russians have made
q slight advance, and the engage
ments in the Carpathians. eastern Ga
licia and Bukowina continued with
unabated fury.
From what can be gathered from the
official reports. the Russians. despite
the onslaughts made upon them from
ali sides by the Austrians and Ger
mans. have been able TO maintain
their strength at all points and tC
throw in new troops whore they were
necessary. AS result the Austro
German plan OF compelling them Il
weaken their center by attacking the
two extreme wings has failed and
while the Russians have been force
from East Prussian and Kukowina
they have been able TO make stan'
and. when reinforced. deliver counter
attacks. which apparently are making
some Roadway.
