THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT Is
AFTER INFORMATION.
Sanitary and Sewerage Conditions OF
Honolulu are Being Ascertained-
Full Report Expected from Herring.

President W. o. Smith of the Health
Department stated this noon that he
expected full report upon the pro-
posed improvement in Honolulu's san
itary and sewerage system, from En-
gineer Rudolph herring of New York,
on the steamer Moana tomorrow
While waiting for Mr. Herring's re-
port, President Smith has taken ad-
vantage of the time by having two
separate and distinct Investigations
made upon the sanitary and sewerage
conditions of the city.
The Police Department was assign
ed to one of these tasks. Marshal
Brown assigned several of his men to
make a systematic inspection of the
city, from Waikiki to Palama. The
men have accomplished their work,
and last evening the report of their
findings was placed in President W.
o. Smiths hands.
The report from the Marshal's de-
partmcnt is volominouS one and it
gives most minute and full state
ment. The inspectors did their work
block by block. In the main the
report is quite favorable. However.
several cesspools in the h 'siress as
well as the residence por ion of the
city are mentioned. They are very OBJ
noNious to the neigh borhc o3s and will
have to be attended to in v adiately.
The Health Department Is also max
ing an inspection of the city, going
over the same territory the police
officials. In this way President Smith
hopes to secure for The Health De-
partment a most complete and accu-
rate statement of the city's status. so
far as the sanitary and sewerage con-
ditions are concerned
Executive Officer Reynolds is super-
intending the inspection of the Health
Department. His report will be filed
with the president within another
week
When Mr.. Herring's report has been
received and laid before the Health
Board some definite idea can be OBJ
tanned of how soon action will be la
! ken toward inaugurating the improve
ments. BY this time next year il is
believed that Honolulu will boast of
a sanitary system that is second to

At the business meeting of the XII
lohana Art League, next week,
one of the topics that will come up
for discussion will be the formation
of a branch of the League to be
known as "The Village Improvement
Club"
Mrs. Frear, wife of Associate Jus
tice Frear, first suggested the organ
ization of the club. F. w. Damon and
c. w. Dickey are also enthusiastically
in favor of it,
The chief objects of the club are
to discuss and recommend improve
ments throughout the city. With
strong membership. including the
most influential people in the city,
the society would be able to accom-
plish considerable in this direction 1t
would be recognized by the Govern
ment and its petitions and recommcn-
dations would receive careful consid-
GRAFTON.
This would give the Kilohana. Art
League a society whose duty it would
be to look after the practical side of
art.
Similar clubs are organized in num-
erous cities in the United States. They
have done and are doing very effect
ual work in the way of improvements
in their respective cities
The local club is sure to meet with
favor among the League members.

SAYS HE WAS CLUBBED.
Australia's Electrician Complains of
the Native Police.

Fred Mau. electrician of the S. S.
Australia was charged in the Police
Court this morning with using pro-
fame language, but his case went over
at the request of his attorney, until
November 10, when the Australia is
again in port.
According to Mau's story he is
very much abused man. He told Chief
Engineer Nieman that while on his
way to the ship about II o'clock last
night he stopped at the corner of
Nuuanu street and Chaplin Lane, and
asked two native policemen standing
there for the time. ThereuDon. so
his story goes, they set upon him
with their clubs, knocking some of
his teeth out and backing both of
his eyes. On the way to the police
station Mau alleges that the peel
ers" went through his pockets and
took from him S. in coin, of which
they subsequently denied all knowl-
edge. 1t the station they charged
him with profanity and he was oblig-
ed to give bail in the sum of $50.
Chief Engineer Nieman is inclined
strongly to believe Mau's story, as
the electrician does not drink and he
bears probably the best reputation of
any man on the ship. OF course the
police deny that Mau was either clubb-
ed or robbed.

INJURED BY A BLAST.

W. &. Gorham, japanese interpreter
at Whitehouse d Wilson's camp on
the Pail, had a narrow escape from
death yesterday afternoon while at
tending to blast of giant powder. It
was "A small blast and Gorham believ-
ing that he had fired it successfully,
approached the spot to see the result,
when a second explosion took place
The interpreter was stunned for Il
time by the conclusion, and for an
hour could not see. The skin was
torn from his right hand, which was
also severely lacerated. Last evening
Gorham came to town and had his
injured member dressed by DR.. Nc
Millen. He felt much better today,
and returned to the camp. He is
wondering yet why he is alive.

is DESTROYS OF ESTABLISHING \
PRECEDENT.
The Damage Money is Lost Sight of
in the Hawaiian Controversy by the
Tokyo Government.

The reply to the japanese letter is
soon to be forwarded, and another
step made in the diplomatic contro-
versy. Inquiry at the Foreign Office
today shows that the President and
his Cabinet are hard at work upon the
last note from the Japanese Govern
ment. The tone of this letter is much
more pacific than any of the previous
documents. Minister of Foreign Af-
fairs Cooper stated that the Cabinet
had some amendments to make to the
latest Japanese proposal, and that as
soon as they were decided upon the
correspondence as far as il had gone,
would, in all probability, be laid be-
fore the public.
The Japanese government is still
very vague as to the amount Of dam
age it will claim, and it still seems as
if the main point was the establish
ment of precedent rather than com
pensation for the supposed injury in
ficted upon its subjects.
The negotiations will have :" GO
tinue some time longer, as Minister
Shimumara has no authority to ac-
cept the amendments to the protocol.
and these will have to be forwarded
to the Foreign Office at Tokyo for APP
proval. The signing of the protocol
will be regarded. in the United States,
as closing the matter.
There seems now every reason to
suppose that the controversy will go
to arbitration within a few weeks.
| The China. sailing for Yokohama
on the Goth inst, will carry the reply
of the Hawaiian government. BY the
! middle of November the letter should
reach the Foreign Office at Tokyo. y
reply from the japanese government
may possibly be received by the home
government on the Doric, due to ar
rive here on December 10.
BY Christmas the whole imbro0liC
might be in the hands of the arbitra-
tors, providing there is not too much
correspondence between the two coun
tries to determine who the arbitrators

TIE BARACOuTA,s REGISTRY.

Colonel George Il. Macfarlane will
probably sail for San Francisco by
the Peru on Friday, having accom-
plished the business which brought
him to the Islands. He stated this af-
ternoon that it will scarcely be nee
essary for him to return here to Sc
cure "A registry for the Pacific Mail 5.
S. Baracouta, which is now flying the
Hawaiian flag in Central American
waters, under a conditional registry
similar to that issued to the China.
The colonel has drawn up an appli-
cation for registry for the Baracou-
Ia on the same lines as the 5. 5. Chi
ma, and as the ease is an exact paral-
lei in every particular, it is not be-
lieved that any objection will be In
terposed by the government. Upon
the arrival of the Baracouta here the
application will be filed, the vessel
measured, stamp duties paid and the
registry secured. Colonel Macfarlane
said today that he will probably have
exact information by the Moana as to
the date of the arrival of the Baracou-
TIA. According to his present infor-
nation she will be here in about four
weeks

POSTMASTER GENERAL OAT.

Postmaster General Oat arrived in
Hilo last week on his annual tour of
the Island of Hawaii. looking over
the mail service, listening to sugges-
tions and incidentally gathering to-
gather few chunks of good health to
help him out for another year in Hon
olulu, says the lIlo Tribune. Mr..
Oat finds the mail service satisfactory
and hears but few complaints. He
has some plans for extending still fur
ther the service. or. at least, to make
it more frequent in some of the OBJ
scure districts. Sunday he went to
Pohoiki and returned to Hilo, thence
on to the other side of the Island via
the Volcano. The Postmaster General
is a painstaliing official and his de-
partment shows signs of unceasing
care and attention.

brought by Colonel C. X. c. Rookie, to-
day filed a demurrer to the complaint
on the ground that it does not state
sufficient facts to constitute a cause
of action against the Association. w.

the attorneys for the Hospital.
A similar demurrer was filed in the
action to quiet title brought by Chas.

ENTRIES FOR CYCLOMERE MEET
HAVE CLOSED.
All Island Riders, Both Professional
and Amateur. viii Ride-Competi-
ton Will be Keen.

At noon today were closed the en-
try lists for the Cyclomere Park meet.
All of the Island riders of any note,
both professional and amateur, will
compete for honors. \ good many OF
the younger riders have also entered.
insuring lively competition in tine
boys races.
The riders have entered all the
races under their particular class. For
instance an amateur has entered all
the amateur events reserving the
right to participate in only those he
may choose. The same is true with
the professional.
On the Moana tomorrow will come
the crack riders from the States.
Charles S. Desly, who built the Cy-
clomere park track is with them. He
comes to see the races, having pur-
chased round trip ticket, in order
that he might return with the riders
after the meet is over.
These professional riders will not
be in a class by themselves, as is gen.
erally supposed. They will come into
competition with the Island riders
who are in the professional class. 1t
is confidently believed that the Ma
noa Wonder" Martin. Sam johnson
and others. will be able to hold their
own with these speedy men.
Of course, the visiting wheelmen
will try for time records, they being
paced by Island riders on tandems.
| In the amateur races first and sec
ond prizes are offered while in the
professional events first, second and
third prizes are given. Aside from
these are trophies for one-third mile
exhibition races for professional and
amateur Island riders. These tro-
phies must be won three times by any
one rider before he becomes owner.
