REGISTRY
The New Act for Giving Foreign
Craft the Flag.

Craft the Flag.
The Finance Committee of the Sen
ate gave a hearing Friday afternoon
to the citizens interested in the SUBJ
stitute for the Government act con-
corning the registration of vessels. Min
lister Cooper was there on behalf of the
bill. Brief addresses or arguments on
the measure were made by T. H. Da-
vies, w. G. Irwin, F. NJ. Swanzy, ]. B.
Atherton, F. A. Schaefer, and for Col.
G. Macfarlane, Attorney P. Neumann.
Most of the visitors spoke on behalf Of
local corporations that might be inter-
ested or that might acquire ownership
of vessels under the flags of other
countries.
Senator Brown is chairman of the
Finance Committee. After the hearing
had ended he stated that the bill would
probably be modified to protect local
men by providing that any corporation
registering a vessel under the Hawai-
ian flag must have been in business in
the Islands for two years. This will
avoid giving an advantage to paper
corporations. The act will provide that
a vessel must be actually owned by a
citizen or corporation of Hawaii.
One registration is now pending and
a couple of more applications may be
filed within week or so. These will
not be in any way touched by the act
now under consideration. Colonel
Macfarlane some time ago asked for re-
gistry for the steamship Peter Jebsen,
which is now under the Norwegian flag
and which is craft of about 1900 tons
carrying coal between Nainamo and
San Francisco. Collector General Nc
Stocker required the bill of sale to be
translated into English and then in
formed the Minister of Foreign Affairs
of the application. No action has been
taken as yet.
One other steamer mentioned as like
ly to be in the field for the honor and
profit of a Hawaiian flag is the Amoo-
now of British registry.

been offered the position of Deputy

Afioat.
The showers of yesterday afternoon
and last night were not quite so heavy
as the downpour of Saturday evening,
but were accompanied by lightning ard
thunder Rain fell for hours and the
streets were flooded. There were small
lakes in all the depressions. The hacks
did big business and the tram line
had a hard time of it. At 9 o'clock
last night two mule cars met near E.
o. Hall & Sons on King. The effort to
have cars on the same track going in
opposite directions was a failure. st.
John Gilbert's timely eloquence, born
of the forlorn situation, induced the
driver from Waikiki to turn back. All
the streams in the neighborhood of
Honolulu, as well as in the country,
are overlooking.
A citizen telephoned to this Office at
$50 last night that there was a stream
of three feet of water flowing down the
country in the neighborhood of Wilder
avenue This citizen expressed the fear
that the Punchbowl reservoir had over
flowed. In respones to questions, both
Andrew Brown and Arthur Harrison
replied that the reservoir was all right.
The lower levels all over town were
deep under water. Some of the small
houses in upper Kamaukapili were
floating.
