S. ?. Puts
Embargo
On Freighf

- TIGHTENING up on the embargo
on shipments of freight to Hawaii
from the mainland is still further
indicated by an Associated Press des-
patch received this morning, which.
specifies the restrictions the Southern
Pacific has placed on the shipments
of carload lots Of freight to these isl
ands.
Also, the despatch is believed to in
dictate that the freight congestion has
become so acute on the coast that with
the withdrawal Of the Matson steam-
ers it is realized the normal importa-
lions to Hawaii cannot be continued
during the war. or at least until many
of the schooners and steamers build
ing on the Pacific coast come from the
ways.
The freight restriction imposed by
the Southern Pacific on shipments to
Hawaii is to go into effect on Mon
day, November 9Th. After that date
the company will not accept any car
load shipments of Hawaii freight I'M
less it is certain definite reserya-
ton of ocean carrier space has been
secured by the shipper or the con
signee.
Confirmation Of the securing Of the
ship space must be given to the
Southern Pacific, but whether by the
Pacific coast representative of the
shipping board, steamships agents or
the shipper or consignee is not stated.
The Southern Pacific, in announcing
the rules for the embargo on carload
freight shipments, explains that It is
intended to check congestion in the
railway terminals of the Pacific Coast
1T simply means the Southern Pa
cific is not going to accept freight
which cannot be unloaded from It's
for lack Of bottoms to bring It to Ha-
waii, said E. j. Hardesty, Honolulu
general agent for the company, when
shown the despatch this morning.
He mentions the fact that ever since
last July there have been shipments
of automobiles in the San Francisco
Yards for which space on ships can
not be secured. Since then there has
been a growing congestion OF other
material. but for not so long as the
AUTOMOBILES CONCESSIONS he explains.

$11,O5O NOT
TOO MUCH
FOR BABY
Attorney Carlsmith Recon-
lllends to Court That 4-Year
Old Be Given That Much for
His Annual Allowance

rOUR-YEAR-OLD Richard PalFler
Smart, son of the late Theinla
and Henry Gaillard Smart and
owner of the Parker ranch, Is pow re-
ceiying $1,000 a year for his mairteg1
ance. Recently his guardian and
grandmother, Mrs. Elizabeth Knight
of San Francisco, petitioned the court
to raise this amount to $4,000. In a
report filed today Attorney Carl Carl
smith, master, recommends that baby
Smart be allowed $11 $50.
Here are the annual amounts Attor.
ney Carlsmith finds necessary to be
expended to support the yoaGgs .er::
One-half the upIeep of Mrs. Knight S
home in San Francisco, $4,000.
Salary of governess, 500.
Clothing, $500.
Vacation trip each year, 1850.
Annual trip to the Hawaiian islands,
$1,000.
Automobile upkeep, $500.
Annual war and charitable dona-
tions, $1,000 Il 8
Donations 70 Waimea Hawaiia,la,
$1,000. ss 81
Total 81 ,a5V
I Attorney Carisnaith waift 10 San
Francisco on September 10 to take
the testimony of Mrs. knight regard
ing her petition for the increase.
While there he investigated, among
sofher things, the modes OF life and
scale of expenditures, conditions OF
living, house rent. servant hire. auto
mobile qpkeep and the amount spent
on young Smart for recreation aud
amusement.
"A standard of living, says the at.
torney in his report, is now Deing
maintained by all classes Which could
never have been contemplated p
years ago. Luxuries such as auto
mobiles are now considered sseil WITH
in the reach of people who, a genera.
tion ago, would have considered a
family carriage an extrayagarca.
Il have kept in mind the TACT that
he (young Smart has IN unincun1-
bered estate yielding an Ineome of
more. than $4,000 a year, and that
there is no immediate possibility of a
reduction, either in principal or in
come.
He inIerits from both parents a
disposition to be fragile and non-re-
sistant to disease -. His home sHr-
roundings are in all respects delight
full His guardian is affording MIN
healthful recreation and companion
ship with good playfellows. The
moral tone of the home is excellent
:.
AS to young Smart living perma-
nently in San Francisco, Attorney.
Carlsmith disagrees with Mrs. Knight
on this point. / cannot find, he
says, that the climate of California
possesses any advantages over the
climate of Hawaii. .
The Knight home in San Francisco
is an apartment of 10 rooms. Fhe
rent is $3.50 a month, and Attorney
Carlsmith holds this amount is en-
tirely reasonable. A Chinese cook is.
employed at $50 month and maid at
$40. The total household upbeep
amounts to $3.50 a month.
Attorney Carlsmitn recommends
1926 month as young Smart's share,
of the household expenses; $500 in
stead of $500 a year for clothing; an
annual trip to the country tn cost
$3.50; an occasional trip to Hawaii to
cost $1,000; $1,000 a year for Tie Dftfl-l
tenance of an automobile; 1885 for
the purchase of a new limousine;
$1,000 year toward the Red Cross.
and $1,000 a year as gifts to the Park
er ranch Hawaiians. 80

"The Dark Road. /"

A yoluptuous London beauty, who
believes herself to be reincarnation
Of Cleopatra, is the role assumed by
Dorothy Dalton in ssThe Dark Road"
which will be the Sunday offering at
the Gem. The story is described as 9
"yibrant echo of the song OF passion,
the song that for centuries has
wrought havoc with the ambitions OF
man."
AS Cleo Murison, ruling over a
court of admirers, Miss Dalton u
said to have created lustrous por-
traiture. The superb gowns which
she wears lend consciousness to the
delineation. Devoid Of ideals and all
sense of honor, when her husband
goes to France to take his part In the
great war, she makes indolent love TO
his Younger brother, Cedric. Later
on the Lad, too, responds to his coun-
trv'g need, so she turns to a man who,
in the euise Of a Spanish art collector,
| is acting as a spy for Germany. Cleo
/ is infatuated with him, and through
| her indiscretion he obtains news per-
tanning to the movements OF Gne
English in France. After series Oh
dramatic incidents, Captain Murison
learns of his wife's duplicity and re.
| turns to take revenge upon her and
| her lover.
