REASONS GIVEN.
Why Executive Gave opinion On
Schedule +.

Why Executive Gave Opinion On
Schedule f.
The doubt in the minds of some
people in Honolulu as to the authority
of the Executive to set aside a law
passed by the Legislature has been
cleared away. The law has not been
swept aside-only a different construc-
tion has been put upon it by the Gov
ernment ''In the United States the
Attorney General is asked almost ev-
cry day." said Minister Cooper,
whether laws are to be construed this
way or that In the case of Schedule E
the merchants held a meeting, after
the Tax Assessor had sent around the
return blanks, to consult on the adj
visibility of returning the answers to
the first three questions in the Sched-
ule E. namely: The gross receipts, total
actual expenses and amount of net
profits for the year 1897.
"a committee was appointed to
wait upon the Executive, and ask an
opinion. The main question involved
was whether a business made up of
several items, of which real estate was
one. should be taken as a basis for fix
ing the value of the business. The EX-
ecutive did not consider that it did,
and does not believe that the law was
intended to cover legitimate mercantile
men. The Executive does not consider
that John Smiths store building, in
which he sells ribbons, nails and shoes,
has any connection with the profits de-
rived from the sale of the stock.
THE law as it reads, applies to cor
porations; they have for years an
swered on their returns the questions
objected to by private individuals.
The ruling just made does not affect
the plantations or steamship COM
panies. The plantation returns have
all been made. and the Supreme Court
has decided the question of the steam
ship companies.
President Dole said: THE revenue
of the Government would not be af-
fected by the ruling of the Executive.
The law was made chiefly to cover
plantations, because it invariably hap
pened in years gone by that something
was overlooked in arranging the
schedule for plantations To avoid
this the expenses, receipts and profits
of a company were included with the
real estate and plant of a corporation
so that the value of the property might
be correctly arrived at. 1t is true that
brains are not taxable property, anC
the fact that one manager may get
per cent profit out of 100000 busi.
ness and another manager run it at &
loss is taken into consideration. The
difficulty has been to frame a schedule
which will include everything taxa
BILE. With an individual his inventor!
shows pretty well the value of his tax
able property, and the Executive i!
willing to put that Interpretation or
the law of Schedule E because it be
lieves the other property is taxable il
another way"

AMUSEMENT co.
Offer From Celeberated Alcazar
Theatre Company.


Theatre Company.
By the last steamer an answer was
received from the manager OF the AL
cazar Theater Company, accepting the
offer of the Hawaiian Amusement
Company to come here for a season of
three weeks. The manager asks that
a contract, signed by Mr.. Scott, be sent
him for signature, and his company
will leave by first opportunity for Ho-
nolulu.
This news would be considered sat
isfactory, but for the fact that a CON
tract or proposition has already been
sent to Mr.. Goodwin for his accept
ance or refusal. 4 meeting of the Ex-
ecutive Committee of the amusement
company was held yesterday, and it
was decided to have one of the COM
mittee, who intends going to San Fran
cisco on June 2, see Mr.. Goodwin and
get a decided answer from him. If he
decides not to visit Honolulu with his
company, then a contract will be sign
ed with the Alcazar company, which
is said to be quite as good as the aver
age best company in the States.

John Stapleton. the plaintiff. who deposited
money in the bank the day before Its doors were
closed, sued to recover the amount. on the ground
that the officers of the bank were aware that II
was insolvent when they accepted his deposit, and
were, therefore, guilty Of fraud $500 ,
Judge Dckey decides that the plaintiff is entitled
TO share only IN equal proportion with the other
depostors, and dsrisses the complaint on Its mer-
It's. In his opinion he says that, while the amount
involved In this particular 3 small, II Is an
important one. many others deposited In the
bank the time OF its final closing by the state
Banking Superintendent, and II this plaintiff Is en-
titled TO recover, all the others In like stu
alton. making In the aggregate a large sum. he
says that there is no proof before him to JUSTIFY
the finding that its officers knew Of its insolvency.
and. in the absence of such proof and In face OF
the fact that there Is much proof TO the con.
trary, and Of so entire good faith he cannot hnd
them guilty of such knowledge or Of the fraud
charged in the complaint.
