SEVEN STEAMERS
ARRIVE, KEEPING
FOSTER ON JUMP

II has been months since there was
so much shipping in port as there is
today, with at least two more vessels
expected to arrive before evening. Ho-
nolulu water front docking facilities
were taxed to the very limits, the ar
rivals being spread all away along the
front from the railroad wharf to. the
naval slip. .-...
Much of the excessive shipping was
unexpected, until late radio adVices
we're received by the customs, quaran-
tine. naval and harbor officials late
Yesterday evening. Three of the ar
rivals we're scheduled ones, but a
steamer due in port yesterday tailed
to get to Honolulu until this morning
and a Dutch steamer scheduled to ar
rive from the Orient came in a day or
sooner than expected.
Unreported vessels, including two
tankers and schooner, were other
arrivals which helped to add to Har-
Dor Master Fosters problem of find
ing wharves for all the ships.
For the first time for many months
a passenger steamer was locked at the
makai end of pier 16 on the Eva side.
Farther up the dock ahead of her there
are a couple of Oahu Shipping Co.
boats and deep sea schooner.
A United tanker was the first to be
given pratique and she was quickly
followed by the Maru from San Fran.
cisco. Then an Associated tanker
passed quarantine and quickly follow!
ing her came a Dutch steamer and
also a Maru from the Orient.
1t was about $3.50 o'clock when the
last of these vessels mentioned was
locked, and at the same hour an
Oceanic liner was sighted.
Two more vessels, a government
transport from Manila and a Dutch
ship from San Francisco, are expected
to arrive before evening. If these
come in as expected it will make nine
arrivals of transpacific ships today.

The weather coming across from ia
pan was excellent, although while two
days outside of Yokohama the winds
held the ship back. Officers of the
ship had not been notified of the Ger
man sea raider in the South Pacific.
One Of the ships officers; when asked
if any further notice had been given
the American employees of the compa-
ny that hereafter the Japanese would
occupy their positions, declared that
nothing official had been given out by
the company. He declared it was
mostly rumor, and did not believe any
such steps would be taken.

HILO, Nov. 2.-kuhio wharf had an
unusual visitor yesterday morning
when the steamship Enterprise went

lost. ...-......e.

BISHOP Street
EXTENSION TO
GET Under WAY
Improvement to Cost $4,000
to Start in Month if Collins
Advice is Needed

Work on the long-proposed project
! of extending and widening Bishop
street from Queen TO Allan streets
will be commenced within a month
! If the recommendations of City and
County Engineer George NJ. Collins,
contained in his report to be submit.
! ted TO the next meeting of the board
-, of supervisors. are carried out. 1t is
estimated that the cost of widening
, the street, removing a number Of
! buildings from the path to make it
! run straight from Hotel to Allan
streets and throwing up a dirt road
for the section Of the extension will
be in the neighborhood of $4,000.
The preliminary assessment roll
prepared by Mr.. Collins calls for tax
alton per front foot of all the prop
erty between Hotel and Allan streets.
but this will not bring in a large
revenue because of the fact that the
government property is not taxable
and the Young Hotel property and
Bishop estate lands are also exempt.
The result will be that the city and
county will have to pay for at least
two-thirds of the cost of this street
improvement. viii the other property
owners bear the rest of the burden?
In submitting his report and the
preliminary assessment roll for the
improvement City and County Engi-
neer Collins will recommend that the
work be taken up as soon as possible.
Before the street can be widened, the
city electric shop, the territorial car
penter shop and the testing laboratory
will have to be removed.
The question of how soon the work
can actually be started will be de-
cided when the board of supervisors
can discover where to lay their hands
on the money necessary for the pro-
ject. The matter will be taken up
Tuesday night.
Another matter which City and
County Engineer Collins will bring
upN will be report regarding the
widening of Beretania street between
Fort and Nuuanu streets. Two bust
ness blocks, one owned by Mrs. J. T.
Silva of this city and the other owned
by Mrs. r. Duval of Oakland, Cal,
project into the street. Mr.. Collins
has arranged with the owners to have
the stores moved back SO as to make
the street straight and will report
the amount asked by the owners in
consideration of moving their build
iEgs back from the road.
He will also submit report of the
project of paving Punchbowl street
from Beretania to Lusitana streets,
with the assessment roll for the i'm.
proyement.
Work was commenced toda! by a
gang of road workers from the city
and county engineers office on the
paving of Makiki street to Roundtop
road, task which is being done by
the city and county under contract
for the Oahu Loan Fund Commission.
The real work on the job will CON-
mence next week; the present gang
at work merely, preparing the road for
the coming of the bigger force. Ma.
cadam with coat of asphalt will be
laid down and the street will be lined
with concrete cutters.
