= CITY COUNCIL.
Special Meeting Called to Take Action
in Regard to Main Street Bridge.
The Report of the Special Committee on the
Condition and the Recommendation for
Repairing the Damage.

There was special meeting of the
city council last night which lasted for
two hours and half and the only BUSH
ness done was the adoption of q report
and resolution. Most OF
| the time was consumed in aldermanio
pleasautries on matters outside
of the one under consideration.
The, meeting was called to order by
Mt. Nieks, in the absence of Mayor PEN
dIeton, and all were present except Mr..
Martin, who did not put in an appear
ance at all. The mayor pro tenn. stated
the object OF the special call, which was
to receive sad act on the report of the
committee which had been appointed to
examine and report upon the condition
of the bridge.
The city secretary read the report upon
the bridge which corroborated the vari-
Gus notices which have at different times
appeared in THE GAZETTE. The causes
of the slide were Also dwelt upon at some
length with which the public are already
acquainted. Then the committee
which was composed of Messrs. Lynch A
Cetti, Mayor Pendlston, and Alderm&H
Frazer made their recommends which
were first of all to take immediate steps
to save the bridge. Then came tom
porary recommendation. The bridge
flooring should be taken up in sectiNps,
and the foot of the different iron posts
moved to relieve the immense strain that
is now on them. They should en-
ploy the force of bridgemen with
their appliances and tools who are now at
work on the Arlington bridge. The CYL
under piers that are SO far displaced EoH
and out of plumb should be put back in
their proper places and be run down to
bed rock and mortised into it two feet.
The banks of the stream should be
thoroughly riprapped and the sooumula-
sfion of brush and driftwood in the river
abe removed. After that is accomplished
the bsnts should be strengthened and
piers built for the vertlcle struts, Roll
ers should be put under the south end SO
that any future slide would not buckle
the bridge.
For permanent repairs. truss bents of
one or two spans with extra caissons
should be cut in and the bridge extended
to bed rock on the southside. There
were other minor specifications intelligtt
BILE TO the engineering mind only.
In answer to the question as to what
the expense would be, Mr.. Fraser
said that Messrs. Lynch and Cetti
declined to make an estimate,
but he thought himself the temporary
relief could be done for $1,000, more than
half of which would be used Ia replacing
the eaissons on the south side ref the
river Then the discussion became gem
eral in regard to the estimation OF the
possible cost, and where tho money was
coming from.
: the report was received and filed.
Mr.. Bailey then moved that the street |
and alley committee wait upon the North |
Side street railway company to see how |
much they would give towaFdsthe re-
pairs; also that the city engineer, with |
Messrs. Cstu and Lynch. mako an esti- /

mate of both temporary and permanent
repairs. This preoipitated the war and
one side thought, with Mr.. Cetti, that
the delay was criminal, and
the others wanted to go slow and know
what they were doing. Mr.. Bailey
championed this view, and Mr.. Nicks
led the other wing. The question of
probable damages, should the bridge be
allowed to fall, arose, and the city at
torney thought 1t question for jury or
court. Then little private war was in
dulged in over an outside matter.
Ma Frazer at last moved that the city
secretary correspond with Mr.. J. B.
leverage and Mr.. Albert Harris to see

REPORT OF TIE MINISTER OF FOREIGN
AFFAIRS.

This report is both interesting
and important. Generally the con-
dition of foreign relations is such
and changes are so infrequent and
trivial that very little interest at
taches to the subject after the
assurance that our relations with
foreign nations continues friendly.
But the vital question of our treaty
relations with the United States is
one which must continue to excite
feelings of the liviest interest until
our commercial prosperity has no.
thing whatever to do with that
country. At the present time we
depend almost wholly on the sugar
industry, an extremely unhealthy
condition, and now that industry is
threatened by the proposition in
the United States to abolish the
duties on sugar, which will be
equivalent to taking away about
two cents q pound from our staple
and wholly destroying the benefit
OF the treaty. 1t is true that rice
and bananas are free Of treaty. but
the former industry promises little
=
for any except the Chinese and the
demand for banapas is SO very
limited that 1t can never take the
place Of sugar. Under these cir
cumstancss any proposition to give
Ms free trade or commercial union
with our great neighbor is Of vital
importance, and whatever the re-
port had to present on the subject
would be looked at with eager in
terest. Whist i said - little enough
and ~ knew it al before. It is Of
vast Importance, however. and no
reason could exist for retailing the
petty matter which has filed the

to make it unnecessary.
1t appears that since March /,
1883, when the Chinese Restriction
Act took effect, 814 permits to
enter the country have been is
sued, of which IS have expired by
limitation unused and 211 have
been used leaving 518 outstanding.
Besides this, . large number of
Chinese have left without permits,
more in fact than those who have
taken permits. The excess of de-
partures in 1889 appears to be
914. This does not agree with the
Custom. House report but the diff
florence is not very great.
During the period "a foreign
war vessels have made us 80
visits. Six nationalities have
been represented. 1t is suggested
that if the recommendation for the
deepening and charging Of Homo
lulu harbor is carried out the
largest vessels can enter this port.
1t is certainly to be hoped that no
partizan feeling in the Legislature
will prevent the adoption Of every
measure, no matter v no introduces
1t, which provides for wise devel-
opment OF our resources.

may be for complaint. We must do
everything for these poor people that We
can. But the committee is too small.
move that nine be appointed. The Mir.
lister of Interior suggests that thirteen is
the usual number but think that nine
will be ample. Others can accompany
the committee If they wish.
Rep. Kapaehaole said, am in favor
Of the resolution. It is something which
the House ought to do. / am especially
interested because represent Molokai.
I think the committee ought to consist
of thirteen members. Last session I
think there were i've. It will cost no
more to send thirteen than five. The
committee also ought to be allowed more
than one day, If they desire it. They
ought not to be hurried. I move that q
suitable vessel be selected and be order
ed to wait as long - the committee de-
sire.
Noble Burchardt thought if liberal
arrangements are made other members
OF the Legislature will accompany the
committee. He knew of some former
members Of the Legislature who would
like to 60.
Rep. Kalua doesn't know whether the
appointment Of q committee is going to
do any good. Generally. the committee
finds some good horses and ride around
