CURLY the reported capture or
destruction of the German raider,
IL Lutece, by ships of the Japanese
navy. is expected from the South
Seas. Three Japanese warships, which
we're in the vicinity of the Marshall
islands when the report of the Ger
man raider in the Southern Pacific
was first authenticated last week, are
now known to be searching the South
Seas, especially the course to Java,
in the hope of overtaking the priv
alters.
A report was received by the Nipu
Jill last night stating that the raiders
and the Lutece had been captured by
Japanese warships, but this was later
corrected to mean that it was expected
the raiders would perhaps soon be
captured" ....
Following this report another was
started that the Carl Schurz and the
Gulfport were to be despatched to the
Southern Pacific to aid in the search
for the raiders. 1t was stated that
they have been detained in 1ort since
it was learned the Japanese have cap
tured the Lutece."
Indications are that the navy Off
Gals here have had no intention OF
despatching these two ships to run
down the raiding crew, although the
advisability' of sending the Gulfport
to rescue the % white men and IS
natives marooned on Mopeha island
may have been considered. This was
not made necessary, though, as a re-
lief ship has been sent from Some
where in the South Pacific
Hopes are held here also that Brit.
ish warships from Australia may be
able to clear the Pacific Of the
raiders.
Since Capt Halbor Smith. former
master of the destroyed R. c. Slade,
has reported to the navy authorities
regarding the condition of the ship
now held by the raiders there is lit
tie fear, but that it will soon be cap
tured. Capt Smith reported that the
Lutece is only 100 feet long, painted
white, when left Mopeha, had a stump
foremost, one mainsail and three jibs.
Other equipment was one machine
gun,a motor boat and surf boat.
How fate intervenes adversely and
favorably is being referred to today
by Honolulu waterfront men who
heard how nearly the schooner Ma
Mia, with coal for the Inter-Island,
escaped capture by the German raider
Sea Adler.
Only by the rarest chance was the
Manila sighted by the Sea Adler crew.
The day was extremely dark with low
hanging clouds. But to the northwest
from the raider there was a riff. in
the clouds through which the after
noon sun was shining, making a space
on the horizon, apparently only half
mile wide. which was as clear as crys-
tai. AS the lookout concentrated his
eye upon the spot, the only one to
which sight would carry for any dis
lance, the Manila passed along the
line of the lighted horizon Less than
two, hours afterward she was over
taken by the raider.

He points out, however, that many
OF the foreign vessels calling here have
no available space for bananas, but be-
lieves that the growers and shippers
will experience little or no trouble in
getting their produce TO the mainland
He thinks that growers and shippers
will now be able to send at least 90 ,00D
lunches of bananas to the mainland
each month Last year about 2S7 eco
punches were shipped.
Mr.. Campbell believes also that the
ruling will apply to the shipment OF
fresh pineapples, but points out tina,
the business in this fruit is not large
at the present time. The ruling will
not apply to canned pineapples or TO
general freight. he thinks
When the growers and shippers first
decided to take steps to have the la
mana congestion relieved, the matter
was presented to the territorial food
commission, but no action was taken
as the members looked forward to
possible suspension of the coastwiSe
shipping law by congress.
"The ruling should relieve the local
situation to a great extent and allow
the growers to ship all the bananas
they can grow" said J. F. Child, as
sistant executive officer of the food
commission, this morning.
Since the recent banana congestion,
a large number of experiments have
been conducted here regarding the
manufacture of banana flour, as it was
felt advisable to find some way 70
utilize those bananas which were like,
ly to spoil here because of lack OF
shipping facilities Several specimens
or this flour have been handed to the
food commission. The present coast
market for Hawaiian bananas is said
TO be excellent.
