THE MONEY IS rolling IN burglars AGAIN ABROAD tn
TIE Finishing TOUCHES
ALL READY FOR THE RECEPTION
OF THE BOYS IN BLUE.
VIII the Troops Come?-EX ec,ltlye
port-Liquors will be Tabu.

The executive committee of One
Hundred had meeting at IL o'clock
this morning and made final arrange
ments for the reception as now plann-
ed. Reports from the various com
mittees were received.
j. j. William offered to the COM
mittee six island views for each Of
ficer of the expedition, neatly done
up in packages. Accepted.
Professor Richards of Kamehameha
school offered the school band and
glee club. Both accepted After con-
siderable discussion it was decided to
use these musical aggregations at the
drill shed during the reception. In
concert or to alternate with the 1a-
waiian band.
Mr. Atherton reported that the
He doubted. that more should be rails
ed until there was more definite in
formation as to the arrival of the
troops. The captain of the China had
told him that it was absurd to think
for a moment that the transports
would call at Honolulu. for the first
reason that it would be no less than
1000 miles out of their way. 1t cer-
tainly appeared best not to arrange
for big layout on shore. Even f
the men did come they would prob
ably enjoy a week of fruits on the
voyage hence better than day of
feasting here If thev did not come
the fruit could be disposed of with
little loss. Again. the Fourth of july
was at hand and if $1,000 or 5000
was thrown away now there would
be little in sight for that celebration.
Mr.. Baldwin reported that Mr.. Ash
| ley had purchased 6.000 oranges at n
very low figure: also thirty bags of
potatoes and a lot of lines and lem
ons. These could all be disposed of
at about cost figures. About 1,S00
pounds of beef, ham and chicken had
been cooked up, but this expense
would not be enough to break the
town. He thought however that no
| further expense should be incurred
until something more definite was
| known.
Mr.. McCandless moved that Mr..
| Baldwin confer with the other com
mittees, and, if necessary, call them
off in the matter of expenditures.
DR.. Maxwell reported for the ladies'
auxiliary movement that everything
was IN readiness. If the weather was
fine the reception would be held on
the grounds of the Executive building
and if otherwise the troops would be
received in the Drill Shed.
On motion it was decided that all
bills should be endorsed by the chair
men of the respective committees and
referred to the finance committee fol
