Commissioners were appointed at
the earnest solicitation tof Romero,
the Mexican Minister in this coun-
try. The result was made known
yesterday. The Secretary of the
Mexican legation has n telegram
from Romero stating that lie has
been appointed one Commissioner,
with full power to do what seems
best to him. Romero, in the tole-
gram, does not state who the other
Commissioner is. 1t is suspected
hcrt, however, that Zamacona has
been selected as Romero's colleague.
If this suspicion is correct the Com
missioncrs will be highly satisfactory
to this Government. They arc both
wcll-known in official and social
circles here and both are highly
appreciated. Contrary to cNpecta-

EDrToR BULLETIN: :-Your repeat
ed illusions to the condition of the
streets are not entirely unproductive
of results, it seems. We, dwellers
out OH the plains, have evidence of
this. We have really nice piece of
macadamising in our neighborlood.
Keeaumoku street, a cross street be-
tween King and Beretania, is the
favored locality. -Four double bull
lock teams were employed several
weeks in hauling stone from Lish-
mans quarry, and several men were
busy breaking it., and levelling and
shaping the surface of the road. 1t
is really a creditable piece Of work,
such as is needed all ove.' the city.
But it was pertinent inquiry,
several days since, in your paper or
some other one, a"Who owns the
lots on Keeaumoku street," The
same amount of work done, and as
well done, on Beretania street, be-
tween Keeaumoku and Piikoi streets,
would have been eighty times as
useful as it is where it was expend-
ed. Keeaumoku street is the least
used of any of the cross streets be-
tween Punchbowl and = Punahou
streets. Eighty or a, hundred carri-
ages pass OH Beretania street when
one passes on Keeaumoku street.
The writer does not remember ever
having occasion to drive over the
cross street, while he has occasion
to drive OH Beretania street several
times every day. The section de-
signated is one of the worst in all
the city. 1t is intolcrably rough in
dry, and muddy in wet weather, as
everybody knows. The great labor
and expense expended on the un-
used cross street., while the other is
neglected, leaves monument of the
selfishncss, favoritism and folly of
the authorities, rather than of their
enterprise and regard for the public
good.
Keep up the agitation, Mr.. Editor.
until the authorities learn that they
cannot continue such course OF
mal-administration a, with impllnity.
A DwELLER ON TIE PLAINS.
P.S.-TIIE MYSTERYssoI.VED.
Since the foregoing was written, |
have met friend who seems to be
posted in relation to governmental
operations. lie says the labor and
expense on Keeaumoku street is a
part of the coronation folly that is
to come off in February. 1t was
deemed needful that there should be
a passable cross street, from King
to Beretania, for the great process
sion from the Palace to the parade
ground. This fine piece of road will
only make by contrast the other
streets appear more intolerable.
Does the Premier suppose that the
Prince of Wales, and the Emperor
of Russia, and King William of
Germany, and the President of the
United States, and other sovereigns
who are invited and expected, will
be so obtuse rs not to notice the
contrast, and understand the policy ?
Verify, the credulo,,sness of the
Premier and his coadjutofs Is be-
yond conception My friend was
not assured that the streets from the
Palace to tile parade ground were
all to be covered with Brussels car
pets. That would only be in the
same line of wasteful expenditure.

Mr.. JOHN GILBERT, the actor, who
ost his wife and was seriously injured
himself by the Newhall House tragedy
in Milwaukee, has brought suit for
damages IN a large amount against Mr..
C. d. Nash, the President of the COM
pany which owned the hotel. The
members of the corporation that
owned the building are among the
richest men in Milwaukee, and if Mr..
Gilbert can show that his injuries were
the result of carelessness or neglect on
the Part of the company or its en-
ployes, the case would be analogous to
that of railroad company on whose
line a person had been injured. If
such an action can be maintained
against hotelkeepers under similar cir
cumstances, it may lead to greater
safety In the construction and manage
m ent of public houses.
