The Pssss- 7Imes criticises the suggestions
Of DR.. Kloeber regarding the amendment
Of the charter on the ground that 1t would
practically amount to return 70 the sys-
tenn in vogue before the Ere. This criti-
cism is hardly just.
Under the plan Of government proposed
By Dr. Kloeber the board of public works,
which 10 by far the most important board
created by the new charter, would not be
abolished. It would be so organized. how
ever, ~ to save the salaries of three on
eiais who could be dispensed with without
IN any way imparing the efficiency Of the
city government
The principal objection 20 the old system
of government was that the council was
both the legislative body and the admins
tratiye body. That is. they not only passed
laws but carried them into effect. This
was . pernicious system. as it afforded no
check whatever upon the action of the
council. If the amendments proposed by
DR.. Kioeber were carried into effect the
distinction between tho legislative and
the administrative departments would still
be maintained.
So far as the police commission. the ire
commission and the park commission are
concerned there seems TO be no good rea-
son Why their duties could not be just ~
well performed by committees Of the coun-
Gil, with the assistance Of the chief Of
police, the chief Of the FIRE department
and the city engineer.
1t 10 admitted by the hess- 1imss that
the reforms suggested by DR.. Kloeber would
result in great saving Of expense In the
matter Of salaries. They would certainly
simplify matters and tend to avoid divided
responsibility, What the people and the
taxpayers want 10 to have the expenses Of
the city government cut down to reason
able figure. At present there are too many
salaried officials. combined with too much
re- taps.

LONG SEA PASSAGE.
The German Bark PfuSer Ar
riyes from Bremen After
a Voyage of I54 Days.

The German iron bark J. G..
Phuger, Capt. Wolters, was brought
into port by the tug Eleu yester-
day morning and was locked at
the P. NJ. s. S. Co.'s wharf, on the
Waikiki side of the German bark
Paul Isenberg. Capt. Wolters was
seen in his cabin yesterday morn
ing, but he was not in a condition
to be interviewed nor did he care
to talk much. The captain has
been laid up in his stateroom ever
since passing stormy Cape Horn
two months ago. The Pfiuger left
Bremen May 4th. Nothing event
full happened to either vessel or
crew until arrival off the merl-
dian of Cape Horn eighty-six days
out. Then for five weeks the ship
encountered succession of heavy
gales. The decks were all the
time covered with a thin layer
of ice, making it rather difficult
for the men to walk about the
decks. The storm tossed the YES
sci here and there on the ocean
wave. The vessel at first stood
the hammering fairly well, but as
the storm increased its violence,
the starboard iron stanchion for
over twenty feet gave way, and
part of the iron bulwarks was
stove in and damaged but not to
AVERY great extent. The heavy
sea- which did this fearful work
first struck the starboard side with
a thunderlike crash. The same
sea washed away a portion of the
forward house. The poop deck
over the cabin likewise received the
same sad experience, the sea wash
ing away a part of the ceiling over
the captains cabin. Aloft also
suffered extensive injury. The
three-auarter inch iron band
around the fore-topgallant mast
was broken in two, one half
falling on the. deck below.
The halliards next went flying in
the air like pieces of thread, and
the fore topgallant-mast itself was
lowered on deck. At least five big
Ills were blown away. But while
the vessel suffered so much above
and around deck, the hull itself is
not hurt in the least. After pass
ing those stormy days good weather
set in. which carried the vessel to
port.
The J. C. Pfuger brought full
cargo of general merchandise (15,-
5O7 pkgs), consigned to H. Hack
field & Co. Among the cargo are {:
