Veterans of the rebellion of January
1895, addressed a letter to Senator Gull
lom yesterday asking if it was a fact
that the Commission had decided not
to receive memorials asking for the
restoration of the monarchy. They
state that President Dole so informed
one of their number. The letter is
signed by John C. Lane, Robert w.
Wilcox, Lot K. Lane, J. w Bipikane
and John Mahuka. A reply may be
made by Senator Cullom today.
The fact in this matter is that the
Commission refused to be Interrupted
in it's deliberations yesterday by the
notorious Bipikane. Further, at least
one member of the Commission has

Business Block on Modern Plans
for Hall & Son.
E. o. Hall & Son have submitted to
the Austin brothers, in Boston, a plan
of what will doubtless be the new store
building at the corner of Fort and
King street. The structure will be of
brick, three stories high and will have
glass fronts on two sides. When COM
pleted it will be one Of the prettiest
and most conspicuous store houses in
the city. 1t will occupy all of the
square bounded by Levers & Cookies
on makai side and a line running up
to the telephone office of 29O hack
stand on King street. While building
is going on Hall & Son will give the
town a business lesson. The Eva side
will be occupied while the Waikiki
side is going up; then the new Wal
kiki side will be occupied while the
Eva half is being built. The two low
er floors of the new building will be
occupied by Hall & Son. The third
floor will be given over to offices.

the leaf too strong for use in smoking
