was accomplished, although the field
was open to the whole world. Finally,
several years ago, Mr.. Hartweli offer
ed to try single-handed to get the
cable at his own expense. He was
given the opportunity, and made two
trips to Washington at his own eX-
pense, which came to five or six
thousand dollars, and came so near
obtaining the necessary subsidy from
Congress that the United States Sem
ate passed it unanimously, and insist
ed upon it until So'clock in the morn
ing of the last night of the session,
when it was only defeated by the
Democrats in the House making il a
party question. The statement was
then made that Mr.. Hartwell was try
ing TO make pile tof his franchise.
He Immediately met the statement
by offering to transfer his franchise to
any company or to the United States
Government without charge, if they
would guarantee to put the cable in.
That proposition he has made since
and makes now, although he is
entitled TO and would like to
get back the expense he has
been put 10. Mr. Hartwell's course
and action concerning this matter
from beginning to end has been that of
q disinterested public spirited citizen
and he deserves the thanks and COM
mendation of the community instead
of the snarls and insinuations of the
member from Lahaina, who has but
followed in the footsteps of some of
the newspapers of the town. This
statement is made entirely without
Mr.. Hartwell's knowledge and is l
believe a simple acknowledgment of
what is justice and decency. With
regard to his own appointment on
the commission, he did not seek it.
But if the House chose to honor him
with the position, be would do all he
can according to his ability. The
opposition to Hons. Wilcox and Ma
wahi were unfounded. These men
had the confidence of a majority of
voters, therefore it was proper to
select them as representative Ha-
waiians in whose report the natives
would have confidence.
Rep. Bush said that there was Il
great necessity that something should
be done with regard to our commercial
relations with America. The ques-
ton is: VIII the sending of a COM
mittee be of any benefit to us? He
doubted that the object aimed at
would be obtained by this commit
tee. Canada and Australia were al
ready proposing the laying OF a cable
connecting with Hawaii. Besides
the committee should be a rep
resentative one. An old fossil like
Mott Smith could not accomplish
any Thing for Hawaii. A native
would accomplish more than Mott
Smith. Kalakaua obtained for us a
treaty: but it is below our dignity to
ask the Queen to go on such COM
mission. The commission proposed
would be a laughingstockt to the people
of America. a few thousand dol
lars judiciously spent few years ago
would have saved US millions; but the
golden opportunity had been allowed
to go by. The dignity of the Ha-
waiian Legislature could not be sus-
tanned by passing only $4,000. The
proper way TO do is to appoint native
Hawaiian as Minister to Washington.
If we set aside our jealousies, which
we are all harboring, and appoint a
representative Hawaiian at Washing
ton, that would give us more conf
dence with the people of America.
At 1852 the House took n recess
till 1:30 PM.

ALDRICH's CASE.
Chief Justice Judd Vacates the
Bankruptcy Order.

Chief Justice Judd VacateS the
Bankruptcy Order.
Chief Justice Judd handed down
an opinion Thursday which vacates
the order declaring W. H. Aldrich
bankrupt. Mr.. A. P. Peterson,
attorney for Aldrich, has appealed
the case to the Supreme Court.
The Chief Justice concludes his
opinion by saying.
"The statute of bankruptcy is
meagre upon the question of what
shall suffice in case of a voluntary
bankruptcy. All it says is that a
person owing debts to the amount
Of $500, which debts have not been
contracted in fiduciary capacity,
may file his sworn petition and
ask to be adjudged bankrupt.
No opportunity is given to cred
itors to oppose the application.
But the statute must have a reas-
enable Interpretation and l find
that it means that a petitioner to
be entitled to be adjudged bank
rupt must show inability for want
of property to pay his debts. 1t
being shown to my satisfaction
that Mr.. Aldrich is not in such a
position, l vacate the order declar-
ing him a bankrupt and all orders
in this matter thereafter made"

AFTERNOON SESSION.

The House reassembled at 80 p. N:
twenty-nine members present.
Noble Pua moved to suspend rule a
regarding smoking; that was the only
way to keep the members from going
out. Granted.
Rep. r. w. Wilcox spoke of the
Importance of the opening of the Nj
caragua canal TO Hawaii. He claimed
that the committee would accomplish
q great deal of good to the country.
He related the schemes of De Lesseps
in cutting the SueZ canal, and that of
Cyrus Field. If he should go as a
commissioner, he would not return
unless successful. 1t was useless to
return without gaining the object
aimed at He was sure President
Cleveland would ignore any Hawaiian
who would suggest annexation to
him. The President would stamp
such a Hawaiian as traitor.
Rep. Kaunamano could not see any
advantage gained by sending such a
committee. He was not in favor of
obtaining any treaty relations with
the United States at the cost of part
ing with any territory. He favored
the views of the minority committee.
Diplomatic correspondence between
our Cabinet and our Minister at Wash
ton could not be bribed but COM
mittee such as We now propose could
be so influenced that they would be be-
wildeTed and led astray. This COM
mittee, he was sure, could not accom-
plish anything. Mr. Harris was sent
as an Ambassador TO America before
at an expense of $4,000, but he was
ignored because he was no more than
the son of an Irish potato planter. His
wisdom could not prevail on the mind
of Americans, because he was not a
Hawaiian, but simply one of their
own. He moved to indefinitely post
pOne the resolution.
Noble Marsden approved the idea of
sending a commission to Washing
ton, but the commission should have
royal appointment. They could ac-
complish more. He favored the Queen
going together with the committee.
He moved the following amendment
to the first part of Rep. Smiths reso-
luton: "Resolved, that in view of the
unsatisfactory condition of existing
commercial relations with the United

duty shall be to proceed to W ashing-
ton to obtain information, etc"
Rep. Kamauoha moved that the
be appointed by the
Queen with the approval of the Cab
met.
Rep. kanealii opposed the idea of
the approval of the Cabinet being re-
quired to the appointment by the
Queen of such committee. That
was prerogative of the Queen, and
the House had no right to tread on
that right.
Rep. Smith replied that the COM
nittee proposed were not public Min
sters.
Noble Baldwin favored Noble Mars

down Main street the other evening with

an of perhaps 30. who before he could

A Great scheme.

A party of eastern capitalists said to
have some connection with the Santa Fe
railroad system is visiting the Grand
canyon of Colorado river for the pur-
pose of investigating the feasibility of
laying an electric cable 500 miles in
length along the river, with which to
drive small boats through the Black can
yon and other scenic points, where cliffs
over mile in height overhang the
stream. The power is to be generated
by water wheels driven by the current
of the river, or the water will be divert
ed into canals and dropped into the river
again.
a copper wire cable will be suspended
over the center of the river, which is for
the most part about 800 feet in width.
and electric power will be conveyed to
small boats similar to the manner of
running electric railways. The idea is
that this will become the most popular
route for tourist travel.
Another, and the main feature of the
scheme, is to convey the surplus power
down the river, where it will be used for
pumping the water of the river to
height of from 10 to 90 feet upon mesa
lands for irrigation, converting an area

A Printers Curious Theft.

Twenty years ago the Cincinnati,
Hamilton and Indiana Railroad COM
pany issued a lot of bonds payable in
1908. The bonds were for 81 200, with
interest at per cent. per annum, pay
able semiannually. The printing was
done in Cincinnati, and the coupons were
presented in New York for payment.
For a long time the officers of the COM
pany have been satisfied that there was
something wrong in the bond deal, but
were unable to find out what it was
until few days ago.
When the coupon of bond No. 1919
was presented for payment at the New
York Office the first of this month it was
noticed that the number was written in
blue ink instead of red ink, as was used
on Ike other coupons. The coupon was
sent from 20S Forquer street, Chicago
and was payable to S. A. Brewer.
The auditor of the road went to Chi
cago and reported the matter at the CEN
trail station. Friday night detectives ar
rested Brewer.
A special from Chicago says: Brewer
admitted having sent the coupon to New
York, but that NJ. A Reed had the
bond. Reed was arrested and the bond
found i'll his possession. Both men are
printers, employed in Chicago. Reed
said he was employed in the Office in
Cincinnati where the bonds We're printed
20 years ago and had stolen one of them.
He forged the signatures of the officers
of the road to the bond and had success
fully collected the interest on the cou-
pons during all of these years. The
amount of interest collected on the stolen
bond by Reed amounts to S1,435. The
men will be taken back TO Cincinnati to
