One of the most interesting occurrences OF the
theatrical season thus far will be the first American
production of "A Gaiety Girl which will take place
at Days Theatre Tuesday evening. The piece
is described a musical comedy. 1t had a long
last season at the Prince OF Wales Theatre in
London and the company that is to play 1t here
is the one that appeared there. with two or three
exceptions. That closed about the middle OF
the summer, and a company has been
formed in London and has put the piece on the
stage of Days Theatre in Leicester Square. where
its Booth London performance was given last week.
The cast for the production Of Tuesday night Is

that, under the English emigration
law, the only Chinese who are now
permitted to leave Hongkong for these
islands are previous residents holding
return passports issued by the Hawai-
ian Government, and no new emil
grants can be passed by the Hongkong
authorities. We were also informed
that the only way to have these restric-
tions removed would be to have the Ha-
waiian Government negotiate directly
with the British Government and OBJ
tain its permission for special lots OF
men. 1t was, therefore, useless send

Quoted render it necessary that the
laborers should be of race capable of
continued exertion under q tropical
sun, and no other class of labor VIII
ever be able to thoroughly assist in
the development of the not incOnsider-
able agricultural resources of these
islands. Under normal conditions,
the natives of the soil would be its
natural cultivatOrs but the extent to
which agricultural operations are
being carried on now, together with the
natural indisposition of the Hawaiians
to engage in field work renders depen-
dence on native labOr impossible, and
we are forced to look for other nation
alities capable of filling the place
which the natives would otherwise
occupy.
The field labor with which we
have an intimate acquaintance is that
from Portuguese States, China, Japan
and the islands of the South Pacific.
Unfortunately, however, the supply
of Portuguese and Chinese laborers
has been cut off, as has the supply
from the South Pacific, and for some
time we have been obliged to confine
ourselves almost exclusively to Jap
anese. This nationality is, in many
respects, very satisfactory labor; but,
with the increase in their numbers,
there has become evident disposition
on the part of the Japanese to com
bine on the slightest pretext for the
purpose Of opposing their employers,
thereby interfering with the welfare
of the estates on which they are To-
Gated. Under these circumstances, it
has been considered desirable to pro-
cure some other class Of labor, not
with the object Of entirely dispensing
with the Japanese, but in order to
satisfactorily supplement their labor,
and render planters less dependent on
any one nationality. The efforts Of
the Trustees and of your committee
have been largely directed towards
providing some means whereby this
absolute dependence on japanese la
Dor may be avoided, and during the
past nine months "a many as twenty
four MEETINGS have been held for the
discussion Of labor topics.
CHINESE.
Early in the year it was suggested
that an effort be made to procure more
Chinese, and permission from the
Government to import 81 number
under the Act of 1892 was obtained.
The terms under which men were to
be brought here were approved of by
the Chinese officials, and an agent was

SecrefaYy's Report.

Mr.. c. Bolte's report as Secretary
was as follows:
Since the last annual meeting of
this company, held January 22d, 1894,
the trustees have held twenty-three
meetings at which the following OBJ
jects have received full attention:
LABOR.
The labor question has been the
principal object of discussion. The
only actual supply of agricultural la
borers during this year has come from
Japan, and strenuous efforts of the
trustees to procure laborers from other
countries have so far not led to any
definite results, but there are good pros
poets of the removal of difficulties
which are yet in the way.
OF regular japanese contract labor
ers there have arrived since October
23d, 1S93-June 9th, 1894, the 26th lot
-1190 men and 296 women which
have been distributed to the different
plantations.
And other steerage passengers have
arrived ag follows:

EXPERIMENTAL STATION.

The trustees have been in CORE
spondence with DR.. Stubs of the LOU
isiana Sugar Experiment Station with
the view of procuring the services of
an experienced agricultural chemist
who might travel among the different
plantations giving advice to managers
about fertilization and other matters,
and who should have a laboratory in
Honolulu where q younger chemist
would help him to do the analytical
work. The trustees desire to mention
here that DR.. Stubs has taken great
pains in this matter and shown great
interest in our affairs, and that they
are much indebted to him for the val
liable aid and information he had rem

REPORT OF COMMITTEE.

The momentous question of labor
has, during the past year, engaged
much of the attention not only of the
Labor Committee, but of the entire
Board of Trustees; and, in laying be-
fore you the result of the work done
in this all-important branch of their
duties, the Trustees, through your
committee, can only express their
regret at this result not being at all
commensurate to the time and effort
expended in it's attainment. Never
theless it may be safely said that
these efforts have not been wasted,
for, il no great results have been
reached, the foundation, at least, of
an improvement in the condition of
our labor market has been laid.
In countries such as this, the con-
ditions under which field labor is con-
