CHAMBERS SECRETIVE BIDS TO BE RECEIVED AT WASH- INGLON. 1892, but the Project Was Dropped—Revived by the ‘War With Spain. It seems pretty definitely settled that the naval authorities at Washington are about to take steps to improve the coal- ing station which the United States has | owned at Pago Pago harbor, in Samoa, for the past twenty years. Bids have | been called for the construction of a wharf and other conveniences for coaling | on the spot, though no deta.. have as | yet reached this coast. | A visible and t--gible evidence of the | President’'s intentions is, however, now | staying at the Occldental. F. T. Cham- | bers, who ranks as a lieutenant in the | Civil Engineering Department of the | navy, came over fror- Mare Island a day or two ago and is engaged upon.some mysterious business in connection with the contract. Hi crecy is to be com- pared only to that of the deep sea. He | confesses, by the way, that he read some- thing about Apia before he left W hing- declines to admit any knowl- Pago.

I cannot say whether it is the intention of t to fortify Pago naval departme; o harbor or not. John Wightman of the firm ~f Wight- man Bros. knows a good deal more about the matter. 1 have had a previous ex- pert he remarked. ‘In December, 1892, t were called for the construction of a wharf at Pago Pago, and 1 presume ine work now proposed is to be carried out on simi “The cailed for the con- struc o long wharf, running out over the r into deep water.

Then, for some reason which still remains unknown, the department dropped the project altogether, and after a delay of about a month the deposit was returned.” Mr. Wightman does not think that the construction of such an expensive wharf is at all necessary, and believes that a light wooden wharf would answer all coaling requirements. This could be put up for a few thousand dollars, and as there is deep water close in to the reef vessels could come alongside “the dock perfect safety. s to the question 6f fortifying Pago Pago harbor,” tcon- tinued Mr. Wightman, ‘‘the _idea is out of the question, because the United States has no more right to erect defenses there than she has at Hongkong or Jamaica. The Washington treaty of 1878, which has | been frequently quoted of late, merely gives the United States the right to use Pago Pago harbor as a naval base and to erect a coaling station on the shore there- of. There is nothing to prevent any other powers establishing coaling stations at Pago Pago if they wished to do so. The assumption that because the United States has purchased fifteen acres of land on the shores of the harbor she has there- fore the right to fortify the entrance is absurd. Any such action would be a di- rect breach of the Berlin treaty of 1889, by which the Samoan group Is placed under the joint control of England, Germany | and the United States. If this country wished to fortify Pago Pago harbor she would have as a preliminary step to an- nex the island of Tutuila, and so acquire territorial rights. Such a proceeding could | only be managed by diplomatic arrange- ments, and neither Germany nor England would be likely to give their consent.” HETR RELATIONS A ITYSTERY. An Old Man and Young Girl Aban- don a Tiny Infant. A case in which there is a little element | of mystery has recently had the attention | of the officers of the Society for the Pre- vention of Cruelty toChildren. A few nights ago a young girl was taken to Christ's Rescue Mission at 948 Mission street by a | man about 50 years of -age, who claimed | to be her father. That night a child was born, and a couple of days after the old man took the girl away and left the baby at the mission, abandoned. The only name that Mrs. Prescott of the society named could get was Maggie Mosier. Since then the police have been asked to help find the man and the girl, but so far nothing bas been heard of them. | The description of the couple tallies with' that of two persons called to the attention of Mrs. Prescott six months ago. A voung girl went to work . on a ranch near Pleasanton, and she was often visited by a man of about 50 years, who asserted that he was her father, but the peaple on the farm concluded that if such | was the relationship the officers of the lJaw should be informed. The girl, upon being questioned, became frightened and fled with the old man on the first train bound for this clty. The societ ficers have been hunting for the two ever since, but only learned of their presence | after’ they had fled from the Mission, | leavins the baby that was two days old. — e | Lurline Salt Water Baths. | Bush, Larkin sts.; swimming.
