THE CITIZENS ELECTRIC COMPANYs DE KALB
AVE MAIN CONNECTION HAS BEEN
INVESTIGATED


The official report Of Peter Milne Water Pur-
veyOr to City Works Commissioner White In re-
gard to the surrepttious connection of the water
main in DeKalb-ave. with a factory Of the CIT
Zens Electric Illuminating Company, at Rockwell
Place. shows that besides the 4-inch connection
Rockwell Place. with "A Worthineton water
meter there is a finch connection DeKalb-ave
with meter besides the 3-nch connection on
Hudson-ave, used for fire purposes only. The see
ond connecton-that In DeKalb-avc-was made
on October q, 1855. by the foreman Of the repair
yard OF the department. but this was only for a
branch. Mr.. Milne further says: All further in
formation concerning the extension Of 4-inch pipe
from this branch ceases as far as able to
determine by examination Of the records. 1t Is
therefore surreptitious extension Of a water main
from branch connection without record IN this
bureau. | recommend that order be issued
directing the connection to be severed with the
DeKalb-ave. water main or a 4-lnch water meter

As the amount Of water that could be supplied
by 4-inch main would cost a manufacturer s. 900
a year. there is $3.50 due for the water used.

a good illustration Ct their incli

that the few annexationists who
vet possess normal brains and
ordinary power of thinking can
misunderstood the meaning and
intention Of that resolution. They
try though, t. make capital out
OF the non-interference clause as
if it had any bearing upon their
case. The Democrats approve of
Cleveland's policy. What was
Cleveland's policy To restore the
governmental affairs in Hawaii
into the status in which it was
previous to Minister Stevens un-
lawful interference with our
domestic affairs. Why is that
Cleveland's policyl Because it is
his principle that the United
States should not interfere
with tie domestic affairs OF
another independent government.
The McCreary resolution endorses
Cleveland ; view and approves OF
his intention to restore the status
quo in Hawaii, and in the future
avoid interference ii the affairs
of other countries. How any
other Interpretation can be given
we fail to see, and we are more
over sure that Mr.. Cleveland =
endorsed by the people in his
Hawaiian policy-is not going to
make himself ridiculous by stop
ping halfway. The interference
clause refers to the Harrison
Stevens policy which is con
demned, and it outlines the
future policy of the United State:

A Clumsy Liar.

Such eminent lawyers and
jurists as Cooley, Coudert and
others, and historians OF the high
rank of James Schouler, have
declared the legal and historical
evidence complete for the con-
viction of Minister Stevens upon
the charge of plotting against-t- e
dawaifun Monarchy to which he
was accredited. Nothing at all
is offered by those who seem to
overturn Mr.. Blount's report and
conclusions, save the bare asser-
tions of Stevens, Dole and others
who stand as it were, in the dock
and completely convicted by the
affirmative evidence. And now
we have the testimony of fellow
named McCandless given to the
senate subcommittee. The report
of what he asserted says that ''he
denied emphatica'ly that there
was collision between the com
mittee of safety and minister
Stevens. and denied that Mr..
Stevens had made any promise
that could be construed to
mean that he would help
the committee. Had the
troops not landed the result,
he said. would have been the
same although, Mr.. McCandless
admitted that, it might not have
been quite so easily accomplish
ed This convicts Stevens,
Dole and all the rest of the con-
slirators of last February of ~
ing. They all affirm that there
was a distinct understanding
between the American Minister
and the committee of safety,
that Stevens would land marines.
at certain hour of a certain
day. Also it is admitted by them
that Stevens told the conspira-
ators he would promptly acknow-
ledge them as the government.
whenever they should get posses
sion of the government house.
archives, arms, barracks etc.
The man McCandless is a bad
witness for the oligarehy, be-
cause he Is clumsy liar. He
should have sense enough to
stick to the track marked out
by Stevens, Dole g. Co., which
is to vehemently deny everything
that makes against the only
sensible and truthful theory of
how the provisional government
was organized and through what
forces. The admission of Nc
Candless that it would mot have
been so easy to bring the con-
spiracy to head without Stevens
help comes very near giving the
whole case away. Stevens afirms
