The fish-dealers at the market are
of the stock they have on

Letters from Mr.. Meyers speci-
ying supplies purchased under

flowing the application of Mr.. E.
BAL to sell fish at the settlement.
his would open the door to other
endors. He should be ordered to
ell to the board.
So ordered.
President Smith asked Mr.. Mey-
RS how hides from the leper settle
nent were disposed of; he stated
hey were sold at 4 and Al cents

ale should be opened to tenders.
lie also stated some of the objec-

On motion of Mr.. Carter it was
rdered that hides hereafter be sold
Or periods of six months under
equations to be established by the
GARD.
A letter from Mr.. Stoltz, agent
n the island of Kauai, was read,
elating to the lepers domiciled at

alau a leper settlement. Segrega-
on had already been broken down
1ere. If the government deter
lined to remove them to Kalau-
apa, it should be done within
lree months, as during the rest of
ne year steamers could not effect q
lnding at Kalalau.
Mr.. Smith said there had been

Oard must settle the matter. If
1e Attorney-General was ordered
make the arrests, conflict with
