REPORT ON COAST
San Francisco Hears From Wash,
ington Jurist Has rendered Re-
signation From Bench and viii
Occupy Executive Chamber

Judge f. NJ Watson has resigned his
place on the supreme bench and will
be appointed Governor Of Hawaii, ae-
cording to information received here
from the mainland, per the steamship
MRtsonia, and which comes from what
is said TO be an authoritative source.
The Advertiser stated last week that
it was reported that Mr.. Watson has
resigned but that Watson had denied
he had rendered his resignation, though
refusing to state whether or he con.
templnted doing so.
The adviees received from Washing.
ton by the MatsOnia, however, are 10
ne effect that Mr.. Watson was sent IN
his resignation, but that it has not yet
zen acted upon by President Wilson,
II was stated Just as emphatically
that after Watson 8 resignation as jus
tice of the supreme court shall have
)een acted upon, he will be named Gov.
ernor, to succeed Lucius L. Pinkham.
1t is known that Watson a little more
than three years ago was slated for
the govrnorShip, and that he would
have been appointed bad his health not
suddenly failed him temporarily. It
is now thought that he has sufficiently
recovered to be able to assume the
onerous duties of the gOvernorship,
and as it is assumed that n successor
will be appointed to Pinkham, the news
that Watson is in line for the place is
not regarded as entirely surprising.

GUARANTEE STOPPED

A memorandum on the subject
has been received at the British
embassy here from London and
the substance of this has been
announced. 1t states that from
now on the British will be unable
to guarantee bunker coal to yes
sells which are not being used sin
such ways as will benefit the aims
and objects of the Powers OF the
Entente" II
1t is taken for granted that thc
recent resumption of activity on the
part of the German submarines, not
only against the merchant ships OF
The belligerents but against all the
neutral ships plying European
waters, has induced Great. Britain
to policy OF, conserving her own
shipping to the utmost, in the event
Of future need, and of withdrawing
many OF the steamers now engaged
in replenishing the SUPPLIES of bun
Ners at the, various British coaling
stations throughout the world
PRESSURE TO BEAR
By putting herself in a position
TO deny coal TO neutral shipping, the
needs Of these coaliug stations will
be moderated, while the neutral
shipping now engaged in trading
elsewhere than with Great Britain
or the other nations of the Entente
WILDE forced to enter that trade and
thus help reduce the pressure upon
British bottoms. ..., IN,
In very many parts of the world,
particularly in South America, the
business of supplying bunker coal is
in the hands of the British, whose
vast merchant marine has made it
necessary that there be available
coal depots at all points. Through
out the Pacific. except on the Amer
lean coast and in Japan. the bunker
ing business is very, largely under
British control, and this is also the
case along the African coasts.s

the same answer: "Orders."
Johnson last night, in the presence
Of a policeman, measured off the dis

The following statement has been
received from Mr.. Knott:
It may be of interest to the public
Just at this time, to know something
of what the supreme court had to
say in the recent decision in the Put
nam county case. The continued and
persistent efforts of Mr.. Cats and
his attorneys to prevent the correc-
ton of the errors manifest and ap-
parent on the face of the tally sheets
and to arrive at an honest and cor
rect count of the votes cast in the
primary on June 9Th, would indicate
that they know that an honest count
will determine that l was nominated
in that primary, and that they know
further that they have been caught
with the goods and that their rotten
ness is about to be exposed. In this
Putnam county case their demurrer
TO my petition contains sixty-sevep
objections which the court declared
were each and every one without mer-
it. To prevent an honest and fair
count, Mr.. Cats and his attorneys
are interposing every possible legal
objection, and are endeavoring by all
sorts and kinds of technicalities to
prevent and to delay the announce
ment of the result of an honest count
to gain time to carry on their cam
paign of malicious falsehoods and
misrepresentation.
My purpose in bringing the pro.
ceedings in the court is clearly ex-
pressed by the supreme court itself
in this recent decision, in the follow
ing language:
''The purpose of this writ is not Il
