THE BOARD OF HEALTH

Deals With Several Subjects of Im-portance

¬

and Eocolyes OfficialCorrespondence

The meeting of tho Board of Healthat 2 oclock yesterday afternoon In thoJudiciary building opened with thereading of the minutes of tho previousmeeting There was a full attendanceof tho members and Dr Wood com-

menced¬

on tho business before thoBoard without loss of time

Dr Wood It is about time 1 thinkfor us to consider the tlmo limit In re-

lation¬

to tho quarantine regulationsnow existing In Hlto or Knhulul Itwould bo advisable In my opinion tosend word by tho next steamers tothose ports that providing no now casesof plague or suspicious cases appearIn either of th03e places within a cer-

tain¬

number of days to bo set by theBoard the quarantine be raised InKahulul everything has been eo wellhandled the placo Is so small and thoInfected district so well defined that Ithink everything is In favor of thequarantine being raised and Kahululbecoming an open port Many of thopeople escaped from Kahulul when thofirst case was reported there and wentto different parts of Maul but theytook hardly any of their personal ef-

fects

¬

with them and If any of therefugees had carried contagion awayfrom Kahulul we would have heard o

It before this Besides that does notaffect Kahulul anyhow and I thinkthat with perfect safety we can pro-

vide

¬

for the raising of the quarantinethere Thirty days from the date of tholast case should bo the time In myopinion I have spoken to the Ameri-

can

¬

Consul on the subject and he agreeswith me

Hllo has only had one rather sus-

picious

¬

case and as a matter of fact Itwas never pronounced plague Thosame ruling might be be made regard-

ing¬

Hllo as in the case of Kahulul Thoonly thing at either place to bo con-

sidered

¬

Is the merchandise in thoseports how safe It is to allow it to boshipped to other ports In Kahululthereis considerable sugar In bags stor-

ed

¬

away in close proximity to the placewhere the case of plague appeared Ageneral store well supplied with goodsIs also in that neighborhood ThoAmerican Consul has already dealtwith tho sugar proposition This sugarcan be shipped as a special shipmentmarked In such a way as to Identify It

and will be treated as occasion de ¬

mands on arrival at its destinationDr Emerson What was the date of

the last plague case In KahululDr Wood February 11th was tho

date of the last case outside of the de-

tention

¬

camp February 18th was thodate of tho case in tho detention campAny tlmo set by tho Board for theraising of the quarantine in Kahululwould necessarily date then from Feb ¬

ruary 18thMr Hatch I move that after the

expiration of thirty days from the dateof tho last case of plague In Kahululproviding no other cases or suspiciouscases appear tho quarantine bo rais-

ed

Tho Hawaiian Annual for 1900

As Whitakers and the StatesmansYear Book are to Great Britain so is

Thrums Hawaiian Annual to theHawaiian Islands a book of author-itative

referenceIn this issue of the 26th year of

its publication its careful and cauti-ous compiler has shown even morestatistical power and vitality thanin several of his previous issues andthe articles on Rpecial subjects ofinterest to residents and foreignersalitfa are replete with informationand interest

There is always something refresh ¬

ingly substantial in the Annual incomparison with the lighter litera-ture

¬

published about these Islandsin wagon loads of perishable reams

If one chaoses to ignore the in valu-

able¬

statistics ever useful to thenowspaper men for reference thespecial articles are as interestingas they aro solidly useful to thescientist or to the individual whomay be anxious to obtain accurateinformation in regard to an Arohipelago that through tho obaraoterof its citizens and tho incidentsthrough which it has passed has hadno little influence throughout theworld in connection with civiliza-tion

¬

religious progress and politicsOur first impression was to refer

somewhat in detail to its contentsbut after a careful perusal of themwe think it would be unfair to MrThrum to steal his virtues andlabors of compilation by so doingWe content ourselves by saying thatit is a work almost invaluable and

congratulate our country and thocompilor on his most satisfactorypublication

bo Imposed and delayed action upontho part of tho Government or thoBoard of Health would cause great un¬

easiness and much loss to tho ownersI should esteem it a great favor If

tho Government or tho Board ofHealth has or should dccldo Inpromptly dealing with theso goods assuggested and respectfully solicit yourkind attention to tho matter

I have tho honor to bo sir your obe ¬

H I Japanese Majestys Consul

February 28 1900

Hon E A Mott Smith Minister ofForeign Affairs

Sir It was iiubllshed in last Satur-days

¬

paper that at a meeting of theBoard of Health February 23d a reso-lution

¬

was passed that tho Presidentof tho Republic be requested in pur ¬

suance of tho power vested in him bylaw to prohibit the introduction Intotho Hawaiian Islands of foodstuffsnamed In tho schedule bolow writtenfrom Asiatic ports eo long as plaguoexists in any such ports etc

My solo object In writing to you onthis resolution Is to ask whether theJapanese Empire is included in thephrase Asiatic ports and also to askwhether the goods as scheduled in thethird class It of Japanese manufac-ture

¬

are to be prohibited from cominginto the Hawaiian Islands even if theplaguo may exist in any other Asiaticports outside of Japan notwithstand ¬

ing the recent advice that there is nobubonic plaguo at any of her openports

In case the foregoing resolutionshould be so construed as to Includethe Japanese ports the action takenby your Government would result ingreat hardship and loss not only tounfortunate merchants but would alsoexclude much of the foodstuffs withwhich the laborers on the plantationsare of necessity compelled to supple-ment

¬

that part of food which they canget in these Islands

In addition to the foregoing resultsthe cutting off of such food supply nec-

essary¬

to tho laborers to give thestrength to do efficiently their work Itmight result in dissatisfaction deser ¬

tions and even strikes all of whichwould be adding disaster to that whichwe have already experienced

Might I ask at your earliest con-

venience¬

whether goods of Japanesemanufacture be prohibited by theschedule

dient servantMIKI SAITO

imposed by your Govern ¬

ment on tho lGth Jnstant wishes to goto the Island of Maul where he willsettle to practice medicine

There being no Japanese physicianon that Island I should think that howould be of great service to tho Jap-

anese¬

people resident thereI should be much gratified if you can

possibly make it convenient for himto go as soon as possible

I have tho honor to be sir your obe ¬

Dr Wood The Board has Just seta thirty days quarantine limit on Itsown ports where vory small dangerexists and it is mot logical that anyless number of days be set in regardto a country whero the disease has ex¬

THE OLAA AFFAIR

Dan D Ponn Explains All Abouttho Trouble With tho JapaneseLaborers

OLAA PLANTATION Feb lC Thopresent week has been one of excite¬

ment hero and at one time there wcrovery strong indications of a seriouscollision between the executive forcoof tho management and a portion ofthe Japanese laborers at MountainView For several days the laborershad been acting peculiarly but notrouble was anticipated until on Mon-

day¬

last when It camo in forco and ina shapo that had to be met by deter-mination

¬

On that day tho laborers re¬

fused to work after tho ninth hourclaiming that under their contractsthey were not forced to work tenhours clearing land Tho luna Incharge of one gang Mr Glddings In¬

sisted upon their continuing to workwhen tho ringleaders made a rush uponhim with a demeanor that Indicatedbodily danger and being joined by thorest of the gang Glddings was drivenfrom the field Tho laborers enforcedby other gangs formed into a proces-sion

¬

and armed with cane knivespick axes hoes and clubs proceeded tomako things exceedingly noisy andthreatening Manager McStocker be-

ing¬

Informed of the state of affairscalled to his assistance tho white forcoat Mountain View and in a Bhort timemet the enemy and thoy capitulatedthe subject of their grievances to beleft to investigation It was supposedthat this was the end of tho emeutebut more serious was to follow OnTuesday the men went to tho field asusual worked again until the fatefulninth hour and then they proceededto re enact the scene of the day beforeOn this occasion Mr Giddlngs was re-

inforced¬

by Mr Jones but this madeno difference to the Japs as both menhad to make good time out of the fieldand the rioters formed their proces ¬

sion and started out to take possessionof the works This time Mr McStock¬

er was better prepared and the sequelwas that the Japs laid down their armssixteen of the ringleaders were arrestedby Sheriff Andrews and taken to Hllofor trial on charges of riot and will bedisposed of next week The ultimatumof Manager McStocker was that theyhad engaged to work ten hours a dayat such labor as ho should determineand that a refusal on their part wouldsubject them to fine and imprisonmentHe would give them one hour In whichto decide whether they wanted fightor went back to the fields They de-

cided¬

to be peaceable and the next dayand ever since a meeker and moropleasant collection of Orientals cannotbe found on any of the Islands

The trouble was the outcome of thoignorance of the laborers They wereall new men and their ignorance hadbeen taken advantago of by a class ofmischief breeders who had led them tobelieve that they were being Imposedupon In the matter of their hours oflabor and that Luna Giddlngs was toblame for it and if they got rid of himtheir hours would be shorter The fal ¬

lacy of this was made patent to themandi now gentle peace white robeswings and so forth predominate
