The President and Several Mem
bers on the War Path.


The Hui Kalaiaina met at Robin
sons Hall on Saturday evening,
about twenty five members being
present. The meeting lasted nearly
two hours, but no new business was
transacted.
A long discussion ensued regard
ing the committee of fifteen elected
at the previous meeting to hold
nominating conventions at the cleo
toral wards. Several members, in
cluding the President, took part in
the controversy, which reached
"boiling point" several times.
President Kahoonei was so worked
up that polite addresses of "Mr.
President" only met with such
abrupt answers, as You wait till l
get through !" "You sit down "
etc, accompanied by tremendous
shaking up of the presidential table
with his huge cane. After this warm
deliberation of over an hour, the
committee was finally discharged
A motion to reconsider it was met
with merciless opposition.
The President declared that time
was wasted because there were many
" sensible" members on the commit
tee which he did not favor. The
uneducated we're more to his liking,
and he could get on smoothly with
them because "birds of a feather
flock together"
A little before 8 o'clock motion
to adjourn was made, and the Presi-
dent, in his confusion, forgot to put
the motion before the house, but
hurriedly put on his hat and walked
out, the rest doing likewise. Thus
ended a laughable meeting.

HUI KALAIAINA.

The Hui Kalaiaina met at Robin
sons Hall on Wednesday evening,
President j. A. Kahoonei in the
chair. Several new names were
added to the executive committee.
j. Il. KAULuKoU stated that the
Native Sons of Hawaii have ap-
pointed a committee for each cleo
toral district, consisting of three
members. The committees will call
a mass meeting in their own dis
tricts on Monday evening, January
4th, for the purpose of nominating
candidates for mobiles and represen-
tatives for the coming elections. He
urged the Hui Kalaiaina to unite
with the Native Sons of Hawaii in
this matter, and he would move that
the President appoint similar com
mittees to meet together at the nom
mating convention to take place
next Monday.
The motion was put and carried,
and the President asked to be given
sufficient time to select good COM
mittees, which was granted.
w. G. AcHI spoke at some length
about the election of the Road
Board.
The President announced that a
special meeting would be held on
Saturday evening. He would then
announce the members of the nomi-
mating committees at that meeting,
also matters about the Road Board
would be discussed.
The meeting adjourned at S:45
O'Clock.

TROUBLES OF A MOTOR COMPANY.

Three weeks ago bill was filed in the
Court of Chancery by Thomas R. Lom-
bard asking that the American Electric
Motor Company be declared insolvent
and a receiver appointed. Lombard is

office of the company is located in the
Gushing Building at Hudson and Morris
streets, this city. The company was or
ganized in 1889 with a capital stock OF
$1,000,000.
The matter came up before Vice Calm
cellor Van Fleet this morning, and after
considerable argument the Vice Chan
celor adjourned the whole matter until
July II, in order TO give Louis s. Bar
chard an opportunity to intervene
and be heard in opposition to the insolv-
ency of The company. Bedle, McGee. Jr..

sented Burchard and Others, whom be

the company.
Mr. Burchard this morning filed an
affidavit that the company was not in
solvent, but that it's troubles were owing
to dissensions among the directors, and
that it was abundantly solvent, and that
he aud others were about to put it upon
its feet. After the first applica-
tion was fled Burchard aud
two other stockholders called

Kingdom of Great Britain, to wit
nes the great sleeplechase on
EPSON Downs, the great race course near
London. Some person should take these
learned lawmakers In pairs and knock
their heads together, ana see If they could
not become the happy possessors OF some

Instead of people praislng the size of a
