The American League Discusses the Pro-
jected Transit.
At the American Leagues meeting
Monday evening, there was lengthy
discussion on the projected electro
street railway franchise. A number of
the members who are heavy taxpayers
in Honolulu spoke to the subject and
there were expressions from those inter-
ested almost entirely in the working
mans view of the business.
The league is in favor of having the
Councils treat with the applicants for
the charter. Resolutions to that effect
were adopted. 1t was the opinion that
the Councils had full authority and that
in the interest of internal improvement,
they should fully investigate the transit
scheme. The League believe that the
Councils enjoy the full confidence of all
the people, and that as the legislature
pro tenn they should proceed to CON
slider all matters presented. 1t is urged
by the League that special attention be
given to the protection of house labor.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
Marshall Cushing's Budget OF Mis-
ceIIaneous Gossip.
Republican Congressional Committee
Will Go Out Of Business.
specIal correspondence Of The News.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S.--Thc vote OF the
pooling bill is, Of course, considered some
what doubtful IN the Senate, though most
observers believe that II VIII pass. The
large majority by which the measure
passed the House Is considered the first
result OF the reaction indicated in the
overwhelming Republican victory, against
fantastic populist schemes which have so
taken possession of the Democratic party.
1t is believed that the enactment OF this
measure will give a decided upward ten
dency TO railroad stocks, will enable many
roads hitherto earning nothing TO begin
earning again, and will, perhaps, help
some OF them out OF bankruptcy.
A criticised feature OF the
bill is that while regulations
to be prescribed by tho interstate
commerce commission are necessary under
1t, the final appeal Is nevertheless to the
courts. This OF course makes the regula-
tions OF the interstate commerce COM
mission nearly nominal.
1t may be stated positively that while
certain attempts may be made by the
Democrats 10 force thrift legislation
through tho House no legislation of that
nature will be permitted in the
Senate. The Republicans OF the Senate
insist that the recent election meant that
the business world wanted tranquility
and certainty, and would feel justified in
using the Senate rules 10 the last extent
To avoid disturbing this certainty. The
Republican leaders are also of
the opinion that the next House
ought TO do nothing except pass the APP
preparation bills and adjourn early in
June of next year, II not in May, avoid
ing any attempt at settlement of the gen.
eral questions; aud the Republican leaders
also understand that the financial question
aud certain phases OF the tariff question
music be studied very closely in the
next Congress and settled TO the satisfac-
tion OF the business world and the people
generally, along Republican lines. In
short, they accept the financial issue to
be the leading one OF 1896.
There Is netrath In the report that the
Republican Congressional committee will
continue its organization. Most Re-
publicans believe that one les
son OF the election is that
anything that savors at ell OF bossism or
even of campaign management is to be
avoided for the present. II is doubtful,
therefore, il the Republican National
Committee docs any work at all until IL
meets here next November or possibly
December TO decide whether the next
national convention shall be held in May
or June. MARSHALL CUSHING.
