SHIP CONDITIONS
HEREEXPLAINED

Under the heading of Anomalous
Shipping Conditions" the editor of
the Hilo Tribune has the following in
ping conditions brought about by the
war:
AN anomalous condition arose in
Hilo yesterday, when the Lansing
sailed for San Francisco in ballast,
whereas she might have taken a full
cargo of molasses if the owners had
been so disposed. The vessel is sup.
posed to be the property of the Union
Oil company and as immense Quanti-
ties Of oil are consumed in the islands.
it seems remarkable that the vessel
should return to San Francisco in bal
last when shippers were begging for a
chance to send cargo A cable was
sent to the company offering a cargo,
but the captain sailed away with the
ship in ballast.
The excuse given was that time
wes in this instance an essential ele-
Tent, as the time consumed in taking
on cargo and discharging would SER
iously interfere with plans already
formed. Which doesn't sound very
reasonable, to say the least
The progress of the war has
brought about peculiar conditions III
the shipping world. For instance, at
time when the demand for freighters
is acute, a fleet of Dutch vessels lies
at anchor up the Hudson river, above
New York, idle because of the embar.
go which the Allies have placed upon
the shipment of foodstuffs to the
enemy, or to neutral countries from
whence it may reach the enemy. Con.
siderable surprise has been expressed
because the Dutch ships do not dis
charge their cargo at New York and
proceed to Australia, where there are
las, 100000 bushels of wheat that is
awaiting shipment to England, and
has been waiting for months because
there have been no ships available.
The situation seems to be that, owing
to the long hauls from India and Aus.
tralia, and the scarcity of ships
every ton of foodstuffs in America has
potential value from the shipping
traffic point, twice as great as freight
from India, and four times as great as
from Australia. Hence the work of the
food administrator has become not
only factor in winning the war, but
in economic life, as we'll"

PROVIDES We'll
FOR ALL HEIRS
Rumors That Older Children
Plan Contest Put at
Rest by Attorney

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 13.-Rumors
that the will of Captain William Mat
son would be contested by the five
children Of his first wife we're set at
rest yesterday when Attorney A. F.
Morrison, who drew Captain Matson 8
will six years ago, said that the Chi
dren OF the earlier marriage would
find they had been amply provided for
in their fathers testament.
The rumors of possible dissatisfac-
ton of Captain Matsons children by
his first wife probably arose from an
inadyertent commission of their names
in the funeral rotice," Morrison said
Mrs. Matson regrets this omission.
1t happened that the notice was given
out by the undertaken for publication,
who did not know of these five chill
dren"
Morrison says that Captain Mat
sons will is a simple document, leav-
ing the bulk of the properly to his
wife, but beqUeathing sums 'w31ilh
will be found to have been dictated
by ample justice" to the five children
Of the first marriage.
OF these children Walter J. Mat
son was a particular favorite of his
father, who assisted him in several in
vestments and made him secretary Of
the Honolulu Plantation Company,
which office he now holds.
One of the other sons is teamster
on the water front, and the third holds
a position with a ship supply firm.
The two daughters are married. Nor
rison says each of the five receives
the same amount in the fathers will.
While his fortune has been esti.
mated at 100000, Morrison is more
conservative, and says 100000, but
adds:
There are good many uncertain
ties these days. The outcome of the
Governments Oil land suits is one un.
certainty. And If the Government
should take over all the ships and
give but a small return for their use
that would be another loss"
1t is generally expected that Will
liam P. Roth, who married Matson's
daughter by his second wife, will sue,
coed to the management of the ship
ping business. But in this connection
it was stated yesterday that Captain
Matson's holding in the stock of the
Matson Navigation Company does not
amount to quite majority. A large
portion of this stock was held by the
captains intimate friends, who left
the entire management to him.

The telephone is the back yard fence
of the present generation. Much that
was once used for back yard fence
discussion is now saved for over the
phone, and back yard fences are get
ting to be considered very middle class.
A telephone is valuable means of
getting into closer touch with your
fellow creatures party line Is es-
pecially good for such a purpose. Get
on party line and you can always
know what your neighbors are going
to have for supper. Sometimes you
can tell they are going to have party
or divorce The pleasure Of talking
on a party line is the knowledge that
one of the other parties is always lis

one should always pass remark for

There's some sneak listening to us"
That always stings. You know how
it is yourself. -Brooklyn Eagle.

Wilton Lackaye says that one day
while he was playing an engagement
in Chicago he took stroll along South
Clark street and came to a district
of secondhand clothing shops. Every
other show window was filled with
garments bearing seductively worded
legends purporting to represent that
these offerings had been cast back
upon the makers hands through no
fault Of their own, but, rather, because
of the captiousness Of the original pur
chasers.
The words "Misfit," "Not Claimed"
''Tailor's Sample and so on, required
time and time again.
But in one window originality in the
gentle art Of advertising phraseology
had scored triumph Behind the
glass dangled a pair Of trousers Of a
most startling cut and an even more
startling pattern. The colors fairly
leaped through the window to smite
the passerby in the eye. To the gar
ment was affixed card bearing this
statement:
