The American Ship Eclipse one hundred and three days out from Newcastle New South Wales, Aus tralia sank on the eleventh of Januarv and all on hoard took to the hoats for their protection. It is reported that the ship was a condition when she left port was a very old vessel many years ago. She was carrying coal to San Francisco and by keeping the pumps at work managed to make fairly good headway until she was about two degrees north latitude when she was struck by lightning while becalmed. The lightning dismasted her and loosened her timbers and increased the inflow of water. For fourteen days she rolled in the rough of the sea while the crew rigged up jury sails and again headed for San Francisco. On the eleventh of January she was leaking badly that the two steam pumps were unable longer keep down the water and she was tilling at the iate of three feet twenty-fou- r hours. After she had eleven feet of water in her and her decks w re awash Captain Lar-se- n decided to abandon her ordered all hands into the boats. Tley were thon in latitude thirty six degrees North and one hundred and fifty-liv- e degrees west longi- tude and about one thousand miles from land. The mate and six men took to the smaller boat with nmple pro visions and water while the Cap- tain and eight men took to the large forty-foo- t bout. After being out days the smaller boat was capsized one night and all of the water and provisions were lost and the men were thrown into the sea. All of the men were rescued by the Captain and the sixteon men were then cramped in the small epaco without room to turn while the extra weight put the boat low that they were com polled to bail tho boat constantly to keen from being swamped. This work continued incessantly day and night during the entire trip. BANK OF WAILUKU W. T.

As the boat of the Cap tain was not so well provisioned and had less water than tho men cquired the Captain put all on short provisions and allowed the men but one gill of water per day. When three hundred miles off shore a ship was sighted at day break that was headed straight for them and the hopes of the men were raised to tho highest pitch but the Captain said that when within a quarter of a mile the essel changed her course and veered off and ignoring tho shouts cf tho men and their frantic wav ing of signals of distress and the Hying of tlio same they were left to their fate. IIcsavs he is satis fied that the vessel was cither the Falls of the Clyde, or tho Fort George. So great was tho despair of the men at tho action of the bark in refusing them aid that they were almost unmanageable and one gave up hope and died within a lew hours. His body was thrown into tho sea. A few hours later two others died and their bodies were consigned to the deep. Tho Captain said tho suffering caused by the craihped condition of tho men was almost unindurable and that the constant salt spray wetting their clothing 'made their garments as stiff as wood while their skins were a mass of sores and their feet and legs wercswoJen and their minds were almost gone Ho had urged tho men to thiow away their tobacco and explained to them that if thoy had no -- tobacco they would not smoke and would not require so much water'. Although user of tho narcotic himself and being supplied with a thousand cigars ho loft ill of them aboard the ship and declined to use the weed af'all on the voyage for the land. Most of tho men however re- fused to oboy him and the three who died were the heaviest users of tobacco. Alter being out somo days some of tho men drank salt water which only added to their disteress and caused intense suffering. When they reached land on Mon day morning, January 2Gth, the men were in such a pitiablo con dition that they could not stand alone, their tongues were swollen, their lips were swollen and cracked open, tneir nesn wasted, oyes sum: on and their legs and feet so swol len that somo of them had to bo carried ashore by tho willing 10 sidents of Hana. It was hero that George O. Cooper and County Supervisor W. P. Hn.ia and many Hawaiians proved to bo good Samaritans and did every thing for tho suffering men that they'could do. Foods of all kinds wero brought by tho people there and clothin provided and medical attondanco given by Dr. Deas who did what ho could to relieve the stiffeiing of the men. Captain Larson and tho men speak in the highest terms of the treatment accorded them at Hana. The Claudine took the Qaptain and men to Honolulu where they will be placed in the hospital for sonic time until they arc again able to follow tho sea which all of them intend to do except the Captain who says that he has now gone through three ship wrecks and that he will never follow tho sea again. KBKIPI WINS LAND SUIT. The petition of Rev. .1. E. Keki- - pi to havo a deed executed by him self to Joseph Mitchell set aside mil the same declared a mortgage was' heard by Circuit Judge Kopoi- - kai Friday and Saturday of last week. Tho case was one of unusual in terest or. account of its being the result of dealings relative to the same piece of land in Pauwelat hat was gotten from an old Hawaiian by Kekipi under such circum- - nccs that the matter was inves tigated by a Grand Jury who severely roas-te- Rev. J. E. Kekipi and M. P) Waiwaiolo, tho two parties who were represented by the Grand Jury of the June term of 1!)01 asdefrauding the old Ilawaii- - 111 otit of the land. In connection with this transac tion the Grand Jury of Juno 1901 of which II. C. Soarle was Foreman made the following report to tho then presiding Judge J. W. Knlun. "In the matter of J. E. Kekipi igaintt whom there was a com plaint laid for obtaining a deed from a native named It. Mia and his wife Kahopcwai under false pretenses. We have made quite an exhaustive investigation and find that, there has been a great fraud perpetrated by this J. E. Ke kipi by his working on the religi ous feelings or fanaticism of these two natives. Wo regret exceeding- ly that on consultation with tho Deputy Attorney General to find that there is no statute in the Ha- waiian laws which will permit us in an indictment against E. Kekipi. In connection with this case Mr. M. P. Waiwaiole doc3 not appear to have acted in a thoroughly up- right and conscientious manner in his capacity as Notary Public. It would appear from the evidence produced that there was more or less of a conspiracy between Mr. Waiwaiole and Mr. Kekipi to obtain tho signatures of Mia and his wife to thedeed, when from Waiwaiole's own evidence, he, (Waiwaiolo) was aware of the fact that Mia and his wife signed tho deed under tho im pression that they were signing a mortgage." From this it will bo seen that the Grand Jury believed the Reverend gentleman to be any thing but what a minister of the gospel is sup posed to he and this was tho cause of general interest in the suit. While the receipt for tho money paul by Mitchell was written in Hawaiian and was written by Ke kipi himself and acknowledged the receipt of tiie money as in full of the purehaso price of tho land in Pauwela witnesses were produced to prove that Mitchell had acknow ledged that it wis a mortgage that ho held and that thoro was an understanding to that effect al though tho instrument 111:1s in tho form of a deed.

the Inter Island Steam and Navigation Company to inaugurate bet-

ter steamer service at Kahului for i he act- mi limitation of t he t raveling public.

This move would be of yrciii convenience to I lie public who be

lieve they should have steamer service twice a week-- each way in-

stead of once a wool? as at present.If the service is inuuuratod il will mean the same service in

Lahaina that it now yets but instead of the t wo steamers goin toHawaii from that place one at least will leave Lahaina for Kahuluiwhere the greatest population would prefer to embark for llono.lulu and Hawaii instead of tak'uiy the steamer at Mediators Landing where there is no accommodation for ladies and invalids who

G

are often compelled to take the steamer on account of the presentschedule.

While the landing at Mc(! rcgors is an improvement over the old

landing at Maalaea in some respects and in some weather it is so

far awav that the hacks are comnellod to leave town before thesteamer is sighted and in consequence many are required to remainthere In the night without any chance of comfort, and must paytwice the fare that they formerly had to pay to get to Maalaea andand while it ia necessary to send the hacks there it is seldom a

paying proposition for the hackinen as the number of hacks is

always greater than the number of passengers: for which reason it

is a losing proposition for t he hack menIt is believed that both the traveling puulic and the stables would

profit by the proposed schedule and that travel would become moregeneral than it is now.

It would unquestionably be to the advantage of the travelingoublic and we see no reason whv the coaipany should not "rantthe request.

Were Probably The statement of Captain Lursen that theMistaken. boat in which he and his men were in ou

their way to the island from the wrecked Eclipse was so nearvessel while three hundred miles oil' shore thu.1 they must havebeen seen by the man at the helm seems almost incredible.

That any sea faring man would bo so devoid of humanity as L

refuse aid to suffering snip wrecked brothers cast adrift on, thehsh. seas is taardlv possible and vet the captain has trained theconfidence of those wdio have met him and noiie doubt that he believes the captain of the vessel did wilfully refuse to heed the call

for help and left the sulferinir in'ii in agony ana thai three of themen did die as a result of the failure of the vo.-,- to render assistance.

If it is t;ue that the ves-M'- l r'l-.- d past lor the reason that itsollicers wished to make poit and win the .atrer to reach port be-

fore the other boats did th.e left San cY.inciseo hi fore the othersas some seem to believe was the case the captain r a ho ever wasresponsible for this brutal act should be severely nuui.-die- u forthis villianous act.

While the Captain of t he iilfaled Kclipsi? and the men certainlybelieve they were purposely refused assistance we are inclined tothink they are mistaken ana that they were not seen as they areso sure they were.

Fort George not The Erskino M. Phelps, Fort George, Irm- -

- the Winner, yard, and Gerard C. Tobey, recently leftSan Francisco on a race to the islands and il is understood thatthe race should be one from port to port.

On Saturday the Claudine pissed the Erskino M. i 'helps nearKahului which harbor the Phelps reached Sunday before any of

the other vessels had put into port. On the following day, Mondaythe Fort George readied Honolulu and was anchored in the harborone day after the Phelps had anchored in the harbor of Kahului.

The Fort George now claims to be the winner of the wager onthe ground that she was off Kahului on Friday evening ahead ofthe Phelps.

It 16 authoratively stated in Kahului that she was at no time in

sight of Kahului on Friday or Saturday and it is further claimedthat even if she had been that tlnit would not entitle her to thewager for the reason that Kahului was not her objective port butthat Honolulu was aud that as she was a day late in reaching herport she has no right to claim the wager .

It might be further pointed out that there w ts a fair wind Friday,Saturday and Sunday off the islands and that even if the FortGeorge was near here Friday as is claimed by Um Captain of theFort George she could have made Honolulu ahead of the Phelpsbut which she did not

The Erskine M. Phelps was clearly the winner of .he race audshould receive the wager.

The Passing The female rocU fakir lias at hist been brniig-li-t

of WaJlacll. to bay by the action of the Hoard of Health 1:1

permitting him to go to Mololai and t reat ten Jepars whom be mightselect and bring to the Kalihi Receiving Station.

A beautiful contentionfor a man who claims to cure aud not to Ui'l.

Japanese Talk

And Negotiations.

WASHINGTON, Jan. lO.- -In viewof a statement issued today by thestate Department to the effect thatno demand had been made on Japanfor a written agreement to limit im-

migration from that country, the"Chronicle" correspondent i ablfl tothrow some light on negotiations "n

progress through admissions madeby men in touch with the situation.Diplomatically and technically, thestatement by the State Departmentis correct. No written statement hasbeen asked for and none will be. However, representations were made' bv

Embassador O'Brien which almostamounted to charging Japan wiihbad faith in the cdministration 01" tlxregulations governing the emigrationof laborers. :

In the exchanges that resulted in

Washington between the State De

partment and Japan's representativethe attitude of the latter so nearlyapproached truculer.ee, it is said.that the scene of negotiations wasremoved to' Japan. EmbassadorO'Brien cited to Minister Hayashievidence furnished by immigrationstatistics and made a full showing of

the failure by Japan to govern theproblem of coolie immigration. Inreply he was given a copy of the regulations and was shown that passports were issued in the i.ame only of

the Foreign 'Office, but that certainprovincial and prefectural officialshad authority to issue them and did

so, the consequence being that thenumber was greater than the Government contemplated.

The difficulty was accentuated, itwas shown, by the fact that while theUnited Stater and Canada objectedto immigration Mc xico welcomed it,being in need of laborers. In thisconnection it will be remembered thatCommissioner of immigration Sargentreferred to this difficulty in his annual

' report and said it might be necessaryto close ports of entry on the Mexicanborder.

On receipt of this statement fromJapan Secretary Root called on beeretary Straus for a complete report

. on Japanese immigration. 1ms wasgiven in great detail. Monthly records for two years past were compared, and every month since theproclamation of the President limiting immigration showed a great increase over the cones ponding monthfor the preceding year. Some monthsshowed double and some almost quad-

ruple the immigration from Japan.This was cabled - to Embassador

O'Brien, who was asked to requestrenewed assurance of the sincerity of

Japan's desire to stop the migrationof her laborers to the United Slates,and to intimate that there was con'

tinued agitation in this country foran exclusion law; also to call the attention of Hayashi to the maladministration by minor officials of their own

regulations' intended to discourageimmigration to this country, ana tothe activity of the immigration com

panies in their efforts to defeat the. purpose of those regulations. The

representation came very close tobeing a demonstration of bad by To

klo.

In accordance with instructionsEmbassador O'Brien saw ForeignMinister Hayashi aud cabled a longreport of the conference. Hayashisaid that the new regulations would

be all that this country could ask in

text and effectiveness and asked as-

surance that no exclusion law would

be passed by Congress. He promisedto curtail the number of personsauthorized to Issue passports, whichwould be granted only by the ForeignOffice.

Secretary Root is now engaged inframing a reply. In its pre arationhe is advising with Second AssistantAdee, who is. a past master on diplo-

matic precedent, with Third Assis-

tant Wilson of the Oriental, Bureau,and W. W. Rockhill, Miuister toChina, who is now here. O'Uritnwill be told to inform Hayashi thatthe President can give no assuranceregarding exclusion legislation, asthat would be an insult to Congress,which has not even taken it up forconsideration. Pending a settlement,however, he will promise to use hisinfluence to prevent such legislation.

It is declared that no apprehensionsare felt over the ultimate result of

the negotiations. While they havebeen pending certain mi(itary precautions have been taken, such asany prudent government would con-

veteran justice of the highest tribunalin the world, is retarded in oflieie.Washington lodav as an utterance ofsignificance and of commanding attention. (Joining from a source lessdignified, conserve ti- -f and thoughtful the speech would have been dismissed as the vaporing of a rabidjingo. The justice's speech, however,commanded instant attention amongthe diners and was received withvigorous applause.

The guests at the, tables includedgovernment officials, Congressmen,Senators and others conspicuous in

official life. They received the venerable jurist's words without an appearance of dissent and the enthusia m

with which they greeted the speechemphasized the impression which ithad made.

Today, when the speech was dis-

cussed around Washington, the cpinion became confirmed that JusticeHarlan had voiced a deliberate opinion based his study of current his-

tory and conditions."How larye a navy ought we to

have?" he was asked aft er the speech."That isaqueslion I cannot answer

any more than whether a hospitalship ought to be commanded by ane vul officer or by a surgeon," wasthe reply; "but. I want to get a navylarge enough to protect the Pacificand Atlantic oceans and our ports onthese oceans.

"If I had the opportunity I would

vote for an appropriation of $50,-000,0- 00

for a period of ten years fora larger navy. There is no suchthing as friendship between nations.

"Do you think. England cares acent for what we think of her navy,or Germany cares a cent .what wething of hers? Their respect for u

depends upon the belief that we cantake care of ourselves. I want tosee our navy such that no nation onearth could think for a moment, offorcing a contest or entering a con-

test with us." ,

Justice Harlan prefaced his ' remarks with the statement that hewould speak as a "soldier of theCivil War and not as a Jingo."

He said that an increase in the army is rot so .necessary as a largernavy. "There are ten million menin tliis country," he asserted, "whowould be ready to go to war withinninety days. The average Americandoes not need more than three monthsto become a soldier. No countrywould ever send an army to invadeour soil.

"We have enough men to over,whelm tlie greatest army that everwas in existence. Our army is onland l ight around us. A Presidentmight use that at my to isubvert theinstitutions of ii free country. Butthat does, not apply to the navyTnere is no danger to s of

"Subsidy or no subsidy," said anofficer aboard the Pacific Mail S.

The steamships Mongolia,Manchuria, Siberia, Korea, Chinaand Asia, six as good bottoms asare in tills ocean, will be kept runnIng right along and the company hasin view a number of wajs of inoreas- -

ing revenue and reducing expensesHad the Pacific Mail seriously considered going out of business it wouldnot have purchased the steamshipAsia from the Occidental & OrientalCompnny.

"If the Pacific Malt was subsidizedit would heve to turn loose nil theOrientals on its vessels and employwhite men in their places.

"Just as soon as wireless stationtor long distance are established onthis island the vessels of the PacificMail will be equipped witli wirelessapparatus and I want to tell you thatwhen the Pacific Mail does put in

wireless it will make it pay. Flow?I'll tell you.

"There are many of the wealthytourists tiaveling between the United States and Japan and China whowould gladly avail themselves of theopportunity to send oihergrams, oraerograms or wirelesses, whateveryou may call them, from the ship ifolks ashore and they are willing topay, say, u dollar a word for the luxury, although llfty cents will be-

nearer the mark And then aboardeach of. the six ships ol tin- - lleet therewill pi obably be a daily paper published, selling, say, at twenty-liv-

Of course we have littleofficial knowledge, but these thingssir I. down from headquarters untilthey are the talk of (he ship."

As an inrikatim of the PacificMail's determination to slay with thegame the follow ing circular letter tothe firms of ibis city is of interest:To Shippots:

NEW YORK, January 28. Thedefense In the Thaw trial closed itsease yesterday and the case will goto the jury on Thursday.

NEW YORK, January 20. Mrs.Evelyn Nesbit Tlmw told her storytoday for the second time. The repetition lacked the vitality of. thefirst recital, but the crowd In thecourtroom listened intently to everyword. Justice Dow ling had ruled thathe found nothing in the law to justify(dosing the doors ngainst the public,and there wa- - a great clamor foradmittance from a throng whichhung about the building all day long.

Jerome failing in Ins move to exelude sped atorr,, took occasion whenit came his turn to cross examine thewitness to bring out all the details ofhe first trial which Littleton of the

defense had omitted on his directexamination of the witness. Jeromealso suight to block Mrs. Thaw's,testimony in its entirety,- - on theground that n conversation whichoccurred three years before thetragedy cou'd not have any bearingon Ihe mind of Thaw on the night ofthe homicide. Justice Dewling overruled the objection.

Mrs. Thaw was on the stand all daylong, and Ji rome announced whenuujouriiiikMi' f .) the day was takenthat his cioss examination wouldoccupy the greater pai t of tomorrowssession.

Mrs. Thaw's story was broken intotoday by the coesiaiitly repeated inlerruptions by the projection, whichsought to exclude ail delails on thetrround of immateriality. Tne froquent objections led Justice Uowliuglo request Littleton logout this ex-

amination assliortas possible. Little-ton took the course officially suggest-ed, to find that O" cross examinationJerome insisted upon reading fromlust j ear's record nearly every wordthe witness had then uttered, fiedid this under the privilege of framing new questions

Littleton objected to il, declaringthat the District Attorney, by reading tli formi r tesimony In a disagreeable manner, was trying lo discredither in the eyes of ihe jury when hecould not discredit, her in any way bya direct question. Jerome made noattempt to disguise a tone of com-

plete contempt in reading the teslimony. Contempt also characterizedmost of the questions he put to thewitness, whom lie attacked in theloudest voice he has yet used at thetrial.

Jerome plunged immediately intothe more intimate details of the testi-mony and made no delicate choice ofwords in framing his questions.

Littleton's objections on the groundof "offeiisiveness and impropriety"frequently were sustained by thecourt. ,

Mrs. Thaw matched wits againstboth District Attorney Jerome andhis associate, Mr. Gar van, who wasever at his chief's elbow with newsuggestions. She fenced with themas skillfully as she did a year ago,and at times reflected the mood in avoice pitched in as loud a key us hisown. Thp prosecutor's pitiless andaggrebsive questions often struckfire, and once, when Jerome demanded to know if the voung woman hadtold Thaw certain things she replied

"Yes, I told him, but I did not usetho language you are using,"

"Don't argue with me, madam,"shouted Je-om- e, who then had theroply stricken from ihe record.

But one new feature appeared inthe testimony of the witness. Thiswus when she told about Thaw 'swallowing the contents of a bottle oflaudanum to. end his life. Previousto tliis, at the Grand hotel in NewYork Thaw had talked of suicide, hiswife declared and had suggested thatshe also taken poison, as both thenlives had been ruine . Mrs. 'lhawsaid she humo ed Thaw at the timeand diverted his mind. She was outof the room when ho finally took thepoison.

"Why didn't you tell us about thisat the tirst trfat?" demanded Jerome.

"Air. Delmas said it might makeHarry nut too crazy." the witnessretorted before the District Attorneycould stop her.

seems to be an idea," said GovernorFrear "that It is my policy not to lotany man have more lund than he canwork himself. I am not aware thatI have gone as far as that yet.

"My idea, so far as it can be de-

fined at all, is to make taohman whotakes up land do as much of his ownwork as possible. But I hr.vo neverstated Hint I thought any man oughtto be obliged to do all the work him-sel- f.

I urn a small farmer myself Ihave a small farm out in L'lahouand one on Tantalus, but I am ifttdo.ng all my own work. Hut" andIhe Governor beamed with all thoenthusiasm of tho amateur farmer"I tell you, what f ruiseon those twopieces of land makes a lot of differencein the seize of my vegetable and fruitbill.

"It is Lnpos'-ibl- lo lay down anyhard and fast rule as to the amountof land that should be disposed of toany one man. In some cases tenacres might be as much as any mancould handle to advantage, while un-

der other circumstances lie might beable to take care of 200 acres, orevenninr.. For instance, a Portu-guese family might lake care of tenacres of good agricultural land, with-intensi-

farming, but probablycould not farm touch mote than that,and prubably, loo, would not wantmore. Or. ihe other hand, a manraising sisal could not get along withany such quantity of laud. He wpuldneed a great deal more, and ho couldnot be expected to do all the workhimself. He would' have to hire mento help him culthate the laud.

When it comes to cane or pine-apple land, there is no use in givingone man 200 acres. He would not boable to care for it himself. Ho wouldeither ha e to lease it out in parcels"to Orientals, or employ them lodotne wonc mr nun, or let them raisethe crop and sell it to him. In ;Jnycas-- , he would simply have, a bigplantation on a small scale.

"What we want, is as trany peopleliving on the land as possible andmaking good livings. Matters willnave to adjust themselves gradually.What is best now may not be bestefter awhile, when we have bettertransportation facilities, and changesmay have to bo made in time. It isa difficult problem and one lhat mustbe worked out gradually.
