Division Of Samoa
Soon to Begin

New York, Nov. 20.-A special tc
the Herald from Washington says:
1t Is the expectation of Secretary Hay
that the treaty for the partition of Sa.
moa will be finally disposed of this
| week. Ambassador Choate is under
stood to have mailed the text of the
agreement reached by Germany and
Great Britain. When this Is received
final arrangements for signing the trea-
ty will be made.
Ambassador Won Holleben, the Ger
man representative here, was at the
State Department yesterday, but Sec
rotary Hay does not desire to act in
the Samoan matter until he has before
him the text of the agreement between
Berlin and London Governments, and
1t is understood he has delayed agree
ing to sign the treaty for some days.
There Is no doubt that this Govern
ment is agreeable to the action taken
by the other powers In relation to Sa-
vii and Upolu, SO that nothing remains
to be done except to formally sign the
convention.
AS soon as the Samoan partition ne
gotiations are at an end the three gov
ernments will determine the DISPOSE
ton Of the arms handed over to the
High Joint Samoan Commission by the
Mataafa and Malietoa factions and
brought to Mare Island by the auxili-
airy cruiser Badger. 1t Is understood
here that the commission has agreed tC
pay for the arms.
The report as to the prospect of fur.
ther trouble In Upolu is not causing the
authorities any uneasiness. The Amer
lean island of Tutuila is quiet, and, &C.
cording to the latest reports, the ma
tives are very friendly toward the ma
val officers and men of the auxiliary
cruiser Abarenda, stationed at Page
Page, where a coaling station is undel
construction.

HARVARD 0, YALE 0

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 1S.-ln a
whirlwind of excitement simply heart
breaking in its intensity, the Harvard
/ Yale game on Soldiers Field this af-
ternoon ended without score. The
famous football game on the same field
in 1897 had been repeated, and Yale by
her superb defense had held the much
boosted Harvard attack
The contest was brilliant one from
start to finish; and from the blowing
of the first whistle to the sounding of
the last, the result was in doubt The
end of the game furnished the most
thrilling climax of the afternoons
sport, when, after ushing the ball to
Yale's twenty-five yard line by steady
plays, and but thirty seconds time left,
Hallowell, the Harvard's end, brought
the enormous crowd to its feet when
he dropped back of the line for drop
kick for goal. Two lines crouched, the
Yale men preparing to tear through IL
possible, and prevent this last chance
for Harvard's score. Quarterback DAILY
called out the signals; the lines bent
lower and Hallowell was ready for the
final effort. Not sound was heard as
the ball was put into play, with the OPP
tObtIhti ~ thV
same moment. Daily made clean pass,
and Hallowell kicked. 1t was neat
attempt, but the pigskin sailed just
outside the goal posts. Indeed, the
goal was so narrowly missed that the
Harvard followers went wild in their
belief that five points had been scored.
A few seconds later the Yale men were
thrown into paroxysms of delight when
ii became known that II was mo goa"
Harvard monopolized offensive hon
ors in the first half, but Yales defense
proved itself amazingly strong, and, al
though the Cambridge eleven played
this half with slight wind at their
backs, the members of her team were
unable to force their way over the
coveted Yale line.
Both teams started the second half
with q rush. While the Harvard men
did not, appear to have lost strength, 1t
was noticeable that the Yale men were
more active. They played with greater
speed than before and quickly had torn
down the field into Harvard's territory.
Almost the entire half saw the play In
Harvard ground. Repeatedly Yale
rushed the ball down the field, only to
be met with brilliant stands by Har-
ward. Twice Yale carried the bal Ito
Harvard's twenty-five yard line, only
to retreat before the crimson's brace,
Yale resorting to the rarely seen tactics
Of taking the ball back twenty yards in
preference to the risk Of losing II on
downs.

THE $4,000 SURPLUS.

Minister Lansing's statement that
the actual surplus in the Hawaiian
Treasury on Nov. was only s3l7, 900,
is one which may well cause the peo-
pie to consider the situation from a
new standpoint.
As the Bulletin understands the case
and 1t has full confidence in the
statements of Mr.. Lansing-if the Exc
cutive had authorized the expenditure
OF all the monies appropriated by the
Legislature from the current re-
ceipts,' the amount Of money remain
ing in the Treasury would be $317 ,OOO
Not a sum so large that it need worry
the butcher. the baker or candlestick
maker, to say nothing of the business
community. With the knowledge that
the cash surplus, lying idle in the
Treasury, exceeds the million dollar
mark there Is only one conclusion to
draw-the Executive has not exercised
the authority vested in 1t by the Le-
gislature.
II not, why not?
Again the query of the member from
Hilo becomes patent to the situation
and we hope Is not too disagreeable for
the Executive to answer.
II the Legislature authorized the ex-
penditure Of money from the current
receipts,and the Executive Council had
this money at its commando surplus
in the treasury-why has the Execu-
tive Council failed to expend.it When
the business community was calling for
more money, when money was lying
idle In the Treasury, when the country
was calling for progressive policy in
forwarding public works, when the
Legislative authority existed for the
Executive to spend this money and for
ward the work, why has the Executive
swung in its easy chair Of indifference
and done nothing? Why has the Exc
cutive allowed the public to believe
that 1t had no authority to use this
money In the interests of the public,
by expanding it according to the direc-
tions of the Legislature? Why has the
Executive, by its silence, If not by di-
rect assertion, allowed the impression
to gain ground that all the money APP
propriated by the Legislature from
current receipts" had been expended
and further legislative action was ne
cessary to reduce the million dollar"
surplus and place 1t at the disposal Of
the people?
Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1899-11-28

There is very sizeable difference
between s317,OOO and 81 ,OO0, 900 or over.
The s6S3,OO0 is sufficient at least to
have given much relief to the business
community and have accomplished not
a little to secure the internal develop
ment in which we are told Mr.. Dole is
so deeply interested.
The situation comes before the peo-
pie in an entirely new light which we
trust will be fully explained.
Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1899-11-28

The statement of Minister Young
published in another column, shows
that all the money appropriated from
current receipts will be expended be-
fore March 81. Under his administra-
ton the people may rest assured that
the surplus problem will soon be solved
by the prompt expenditure of money
in the manner most beneficial to the
people and as outlined by the Legisla-
ture
