As there are twenty pilots this means an average loss to each man of §75 per month. Under the new laws ves- now piving between this and Hawaifan ports will be considered in the coastwise trade. Masters who hold pilot's certificates are not required in the coast- wise trade to accept pilots, unless they express a wish to employ them, and are not required to pay any sort of rates. Every sailing ship master in the Havailan trade holds a commission to pilot vessels into this port, of which he will naturally take advantage in the future, to the loss of the State pilots.
