HARBOR LINES ARE FIXED
BOARD OF SURVEY MAKES IT'S
REPORT.
Invites Those Interested in Shipping
or Navigation to Make Suggestions
Before Final Action is Taken.

The board of harbor survey appoint
ed under direction of the secretary of
war to make a survey of Honolulu har-
Dor and establish harbor lines, has
practically completed it's work. The
board consists of Major w. c. Langfitt
and Captains F. j. H. Rickon and H.
A. Springett.
Major Langfitt today called a public
meeting of citizens and those interest
ed in the subject which was held at
the army headquarters in the Progress
block at l o'clock this afternoon. Be
sides the board, there were present
President Dole, Minister King, c. L..
Wight, F. NJ. Hatch, B. F. Dillingham;,
Fred Whitney, Ed Suhr,' F. M. Swan
Zey, Joseph Gilman, superintendent
Rowell, H. M. Whitney and others.
Major Langfitt explained the orders
under which the board had organized
and worked; that it had adopted ten
tatiVe harbor lines which were shown
on the map he presented; and the pur-
pose of the meeting was to give the
public an opportunity to know what
had been done and to offer suggestions
for the amendments and changes be-
fore the survey was sent forward for
approval
Harbor lines, Major Langfitt eX-
planned, were lines established in the
harbOr beyond which neither wharves
nor anything else would be allowed to
be built or to remain, without the con-
sent of the secretary of war.
The map presented allows for the
proposed extension of the Kinau and
Likelike wharves, but not for the pro-
posed extension of the Nuuanu street
Brewer or Irmgard wharves. On the
Eva side of the harbor the line adopt
ed will make the removal of the rail
road wharf necessary.
B. F. Dillingham; and F. NJ. Hatch ar
gued strenuously for a wider basin al
the mouth of Nuuanu stream. But this
project gained no other support. Pres
ident Dole and Minister King argued
strongly for the necessity of extending
the wharves as proposed.
No final conclusions were reached al
the meeting.

CARE OF RUBBER TIRES.

Do not ride fiat tires. A few miles
of such treatment will damage them
more than a full seasons riding. Tires
should not be soft unless you want
them to wear out by cnaflng on the
rims, or have the inner tube cut by
pounding against the spoke heads. Use
care in handling the valves of your
tires. Do not treat them roughly by
screwing in the pump in a hurry. Keep
them free from dirt and dust on the in
side. If valve does not work well,
pump a drop of water through it. No
particular care need be given the
rubber Ali rubber will wear out In
time, particularly in this climate, but
it is not materially injured by wealth
er, dirt or water. 1t is well, however,
to keep it clean from oil and grease, as
both will rot rubber. The Pacific Cy-
Gle Company give all purchasers of the
'9a model Sterling bicycle an option OF
any tire in the market, $14.O0 Palmer
tires included.

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY USED
IN THE ARMY.
Success of Experiments by the Signal
Corps-Dispatches at 1000 Yards
Distance to be Increased.

NEW YORK, April "a dispatch to
the Herald from Washington says:
1T is the confident expectation of Of
ficers of the Signal corps that within
a short time message can be flashed
to and from the war department to
Fort Meyer, five miles away, without
the aid of wires. Important expert
ments have already been made at Fort
Meyer by Colonel James Allen, now
acting chief of the signal corps, and
Lieutenant George o. Squire, having
demonstrated that it is practical to
transmit messages by means of cleo
trio waves produced in the manner
employed by Marconi These officers
have found that at distance of 1000
yards they can telegraph any message,
and it is intended to increase the dis
tance gradually until the war depart
ment and Fort Meyer are connected
Lieutenant Squire said today that
he was much gratified at the result of
the experiments, and believes that
when the experimental stage has been
passed the system will be of much val
ue for working between the shore and
lighthouses, communicating between
vessels at sea, and for marine work
generally.
Perhaps the most important demon
stration so far made has been the i'm
possibility of exploding a magazine on
on board a modern ship by means of
an electric wave. Lieutenant Squire
said that in the first place it would be
necessary to have an operator on board
| the ship to be destroyed, and then 1t
would be impossible to transmit the
wave through iron. Placing the in
| strument in an iron cage will prevent
| the waves from reaching their destina-
| ton, and a zinc screen also stops them
| On account of the length of the waves
| their energy is absorbed by different
| substances. Thus, water and metal
| absorb all their energy, glass absorbs
nearly all, and parafine and hard rub
| ber absOrbs hardly any. Thus they
| move through hard rubber and para
| fine as light moves through air, glass
| or water, that is to say, with hardly
| any resistance, while glass let's very
| little of them through, and metal and
water are impervious to them.
Lieutenant Squire estimates that the
waves travel at the rate of $4,000 miles
| a second. At this rate they could reacf
| the sun in eight minutes. In time OF
war Lieutenant Squire states it is pos
sible to fire a gun 500 yards away by
means of spark thrown that distance
| The experiments in transmitting mes
sages have thus far. been very limited
| as the instruments were received onl!
a few days ago. The instruments ar,
the finest that could be obtained. Th,
| messages sent so far have been re-
| ceived without difficulty.

IN FAVOR OF DREYFUS.


PARIS, April 5.--Le Noltaire, emu
lating lie Figaro, publishes today an
instalment of Dreyfus evidence in the
shape of some Foreign Office docu-
ments in which it is set forth that
the Foreign Office received several
official denials from Col. Schwartz
koppen, former military attachee for
Germany here, and from the Italian
Government, emphatically denying
they had relations with Dreyfus. The
documents published by the lie Vol
taire also show that the French For
eign Office intercepted coded tele-
gram addressed by Col. Panizzardi,
formerly Italian military attachee at
Paris, to his Government, showing
that he did not know Dreyfus.
PARIS, April 5.-Le Figaro today

gets testimony before the Court of
Cessation. Ten columns are devoted

cargo for Honolulu consists of $50 tons
a considerable part of which is beer.
The Warrimoo will sail at this af-
ternoon for Suva, Brisbane and Sgd
ney. The vessels of this line will not
touch at wellington, New Zealand,

BOARD OF EDUCATION sUSPENDs
SCHEDULE.
Shortage of Appropriation the Cause
Teachers Entitled to Advance Must
Wait a Year

Nearly all of the time of the COM
missioners of education was taken up
yesterday afternoon with discussion of
the appropriations and how to make
ends meet until the legislature assem-
bles next year. Attention was called
to the fact that money allotted under
several special heads was completely
exhausted, and in other cases the linn
it had been reached. This is true of
the important matter of repairs of the
school houses, which calls for a deal
of cash in the run of a year. Minister
Mott-Smith introduced the subject and
presented a schedule of the financial
condition of the department, which was
not encouraging.
One of the most important shortages,
or one that will effect most directly a
large number of people, is that of sal
aries and pay rolls AS the list and
schedules now stand the department is
running just within the appropriation
and there can be no distention of the
work or salaries to strain this item.
To get over the matter a resolution
was offered suspending the schedule
of teachers salaries until the meeting
of the Legislature. This provoked con-
siderable discussion but finally passed.
Members voted for it, not because
they wanted to see it pass, but because
they deemed it necessary under the
circumstances.
The suspension of the schedule will
be a bomb in the pedagogical camp
from Nihau to Hawaii Under the
rule a large number of teachers would
have been advanced next January.
! Now there will be no increase. Those
entitled to increases, however, will be
the first considered when the schedule
| is restored next spring.
Those present at the meeting were:
! Minister Mott-Smith Professor w. ID.
Alexander Mrs. F.. w. Jordan j. q.
| Wood DR.. w. Maxwell, H. NJ. Won Holt
! II. S. Townsend and T. H. Gibson.

MORE OF THEM USED.

There are probably more Singer sew
ing machines used in the United States
than of any other one make. This is a
very excellent guarantee that they are
one of the very best machines. The
points of merit are strength, durabil-
ity, easy running and simple construc-
ton. Very little mechanism to get out
of order makes repair bills small
When IN need of new sewing ma
chine examine the Singer before pur-
chasing any other make. b. Berger

EQUIPMENT TURNED OVER.
Local Volunteers Now Using the Arms

corps. for the United States, and Cap
tain Paul Smith. N. G. H., for HawaiI.
Arms and uniforms will in future be
supplied by the United States. The
companies are entitled to dress and ia
tigue suits. A special dress, such as
a state or Zouave uniform, would also
have to be supplied by the local or the
territorial government. In time there
will be an adjutant and inspector gem
eral of Hawaiian troops. Under terri
torial form of government he Is ap-
pointed by the general government; I;
under a state government he may be
elected by the people. The adjutant
general represents the governor and
is between state or territorial troops
and the war department.

H. Stone, field luna, We're among the
witnesses examined today. Both saw
the beginning of the fight from a dis
tance and assisted in quelling the riot
Neither one say any actual killing, al
though they witnessed any number of
assaults. The Chinese made no de-
fense whatever of themselves and were
struggling all the while to get away
