TOCONGRESSMEN

First hand presentation of the in
terests of the Chinese-American cfti.
zens OF the city was made to visit
ing congressman last evening at a
dinner given by the Chinese Mer
ehapts' association After feeding
the congressman and other guests
beautifully on Chinese viands, Chu
Gem, acting as postmaster, started
an interesting and instructive after
dinner discussion OF what the Chi.
nese have done in hawaii and why 1t
is desirable that more should be al
lowed to enter.
Governor Pinkham spoke pleasant.
ly .of the high standards that have al
ways been maintained by the Chinese
merchants and paid tribute to the
character of the young men and wo-
men of Chinese ancentry. A most in.
teresting historical review Of the Chi
nese in the islands was given by Viii
liam H. Hintle. He showed that the
Chinese were hede before the mis-.
sionaries, and pointed to their being
the first to grow sugar in the islands
Mr.. Wong OF thu, Chinese-AmericaH
bank made a speech which brought
the visiting congressman to their feet
as a compliment to his presentation
of his subject. Mr. Chin Shat, the
we'll known rice farmer and sugar
planter, gave practical talk on what
the Chtaese are up against in their
efforts to produce profitably. Chief
Justice Robertson, called upon for i'm
promptu remarks, spoke of the Chi
nese from the standpoinet sof man
who has grown up with and gone Ia
school win quite a number of those
assembled about the banquet board.
He told the congressman that in set.
Ting the land question and the Labor
question they ought to take into con.
sideration that the problems of a sub
tropical country with the crops of the
tropics could not be solved in the
same manner that fits the temperate
zone. William H. McInerny made an
interesting talk along the same lines,
bringing in his practical experience
and expressing his high appreciation
of the worth and unfailing integrity
of the Chinese-American. The pro.
gram for the evening was shortened
by the necessity for the congressman
to meet other engagements. The clos.
ing speech was brief and sincere
expression by Collector Franklin,
who referred to his dealings with the
Chinese and of his high regard for
that section of Hawaii's citizenship.

NORWEGIAN VESSEL
PUTS IN FOR COAL

Making the third vessel in two days
to call here for coal bunkers, big
Norwegian vessel Gott-Norze, from the
Orient put in here this morning. The
vessel had followed different course
from that of the destroyed steamer
Thor which foundered last week, and
had no news of her wreck.
The arrival this morning still had
considerable coal and had avoided
the storm which swept the western
and northern Pacific, but came in out
of precaution to replenish her bunk,
ers.
The two earlier arrivals we're nearly
in distress for fuel, and both had in
tended avoiding a call here until the
storm was run into. This had cut
down their coal supplies and one of
them. British tramp. got coal sup.
ply yesterday. The other, a Japanese
freighter, could not be accommodated
until today. =
