ICE AND POWER.
Attitude of the Elecltrie Co. I'm Inn
portant Matters.

(From Vice Presidents Report to the
Hawaiian Electric Coz
Some correspondence has been ear
ried on with the Peoples Ice and Re
frigerating Co., who, in anticipation of
an increased demand for ice. desire we
should enlarge our works to provide
therefor. The directors, however. on
mature elaboration, have decided not
to make the alterations without n
guarantee that the increased quantity
manufactured be taken by the Ice Co.
This they refused TO do, and the mat
ter remains in abeyance.
The directors have had some nego-
tiations with the Hawaiian Tramways
Company with reference to the supply
OF current for the propulsion of their
proposed electric car line; but so far
without practical result. the Tramways
Company desiring TO use the poles OF
our company, whilst we under legal
advice have restricted ourselves to the
simple supply OF power to be taken d.
rect from our lines and leaving the
Tramways Company to furnish all the
appliances necessary. The following
in the matter:
MI. w. II. ram MANAGER, HAWAIIAN
Tramways Co.:
Dear Sir:-The absence OF certain
of our directors was the cause OF the
delay in answering your letter OF Sep
TENDER %.
I'm reply to your request addressed
to our manager for n proposition to
supply power for the propulsion OF
your cars have to say that at a meet
ing OF the board of directors I was in
structed to inform you that the COM
pany is prepared 20 do so ut a price 20
be agreed upon, the measurement OF
the current to be by meter and taken
direct from our lines.
This is the only proposition We can
make as we do not consider that our
charter or franchise empowers us TO
operate street railways with our own
appliances, and We do not care to be
forced into litigation on the subject
Yours respectfully,
HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC CO.

The City and Suburban Road Will Be
Turned Over Tuesday Next.

The City and Suburban railroad, which
is declared by those experienced in the con-

to be the best example of electric railway
in the United States will be turned over
next Tuesday to it's new owners, the cap

The City and Suburban comprises the old

by passengers living along the City and
Suburban because of the slow service be-
tween the hours of and am. and and

to the fact that the electric current has
been secured from the Potomac Electric
Company, which supplies several other sys-

between the hours named Is heaviest on all
the systems. New machinery Is being put
in, however, to meet all future demands.
The new directors, who will be elected

Mr.. George Truesdell. Mr.. c. S. Leib, Mr..

STILL UNDER SURVEILLANCE
Mrs. Perot May Yet Be Brought Back fol
Trial.
State Department Will Leave the
Matter Entirely to the Mary
land Authorities.

LONDON, August 17.-Mrs. VIM. Y Perot
OF Baltimore is still here awaiting extra
ditlon proceedings, as the result of her alb
duction of her daughter Gladys from the
care of Maryland court. These proceed
1ngs, 1t now appears. are not to be dropped
but will be continued on Tuesday next
Counsel for Mrs. Perot said to a reporter
of the Associated Press today:
NO reply has been received to the ca
bled request for stay of the extradition
proceedings. The case is not ended yet
L expect important developments
The police are still watching Mrs Perot
and would arrest her if she attempted to
leave the country
Detective Gault of Baltimore said that
GLADYS IS at Bournemouth with her grand
father and Mrs. Perct's sister.
1he detective expects the eXtradition of
Mrs Perot to be carried out, in spite of
the settlement of the case to the extent
OF the child being given over to the Gus
tOdy OF the grandfather by mutual agree
ment between the contending parties
state Department officials stated today
that nothing further relating to the PeroU
case would be made public by the depart-
neht, as the ends of justice well as the
courtesy due the Maryland officials who
initiated the e%tradition proceedings would
be Subscrvcd by leaving to Gov. Lowndes
Wnlt features in the case should be made

matter has been left entirely to Gov
LoWndes, and that his wishes as to what

FROM THROUGHOUT PORTO RICO.
POstmaster Landis of San Juan Sends
Reports of Damage Caused.

HeDOftB Oh
Postmaster Lands of San JUAN Porto
Rico has written to Mr.. George NJ. Allen,
the acting first assistant postmaster gen.
eral, concerning the condition of the island
He says at the present time the postal ser
vice is in a temporary state of paralysis as
a result of the recent hurricane. The hur-
ricane, he says, destroyed the electric light
plants and greatly damaged the roads. The
steamer Caracas has arrived, and reports
that a hundred miles out at sea were en-
countered the carcasses of horses and cattle
swept off the islands.
Reports from the eastern and southern
portions of the island, he says, are very
discouraging. A courier from Humacao re-
ports that that town is practically destroyed,
and that four OK carts of bodies were gath
cred up on the first round through the
town. The number of dead reported there
was sixty-four, among them number of
American soldiers.
Ponce is reported to be great sufferer,
but there are no details further than that
all the shipping in the harbor was driven
up into the town.
San Juan, he says, escaped luckily COM
pared with the others, the damage being
confined to a few hi ndred dislocated roofs
and balconies and pulveriZed sail boats He
says the hurricane was a great aerial car
nival. The velocity of the wind was eighty
five miles an hour and the air was full of
flying things that were not birds. Postal
affairs are rapidly rounding themselves into
shape, however, and everything will be
working satisfactorily in a short time.

What General Mascaso Says of the
Revolution in That Country.
UNITED STATES MAY HAVE TO ACT
Not a Year of Peace Since the
Islands Discovery.
LIMITED PROTECTOR r A T E

Gen. Abelardo A. Mascaso, now of New
York, formerly governor of one of the San
Domingo PROVINCES and friend OF Gen.
Jiminez, the San DOMINICAN revolutionary
leader is at Chamberlins. Gen. Mascaso
called at the War Department today. lie
saws that there is nothing being done In
this country at present with relation to the
revolution in San Domingo. The time may
come he says, when this country Will nave
to do something in the matter, but the SIT
uation is not now such as to warrant any
interference. He says that he does not
think that it is wise on the part OF TINS
country to arnex San Domingo. as 1t would
be a constant source of trouble, and II
would be practically impossible to MAINTAIN
authority and preserve peace among the
natives; but he thinks the time will come
when the United States will have TO declare
a limited protectorate.
The people of San Domingo, he says, are
fighters and would not know now 10 get
along without fighting There has not been
a single wear of absolute peace since the
discovery of the island. Like the Fflipinos,
they would resent an attempt ON the part
of a foreign power to estapllsn stapie
government for them, but the moral mnu,
ence of a protectorate might be successful
in securing a good government by the edu-
Gated classes. The people do not dlscrlml-
nate between independence and liberty.
They would fight for an independent gov
ernment, but would permit their liberties
to be taken from them by dictator from
among their own people. With native
dictator they think they have freedom'
when it is only a liberty to be shot or
thrown into prison. Independence, liberty
and freedom mean to them simply inde-
pendence of a foreign power, ana they
would keep up a constant hSht LOT IT,
though the foreign government might in
sure perfect freedom to the citizens, while
the Independent native government would
be nothing but a tyrannical despot1sm.

THE YELLOW FEVER.
DIR. Wasdin Talks of Conditions at
Hampton and PhOebus.


Surgeon Wasdin of the United States
marine hospital service, who has been sta
toned at Hampton and Phoebus, Va, dur
ing the yellow fever outbreak at the Soldiers
Home, is in the city. DR.. Wasdin said to
a Star reporter this afternoon that the sit
uation at Hampton and Phoebus is very
encouraging. There is not a case of yell
low fever outside of the Soldiers Home,
as shown by the daily house-to-h house in
spection. and there have been no new cases
in the home within a recent period of time.
He said the quarantine has been lifted
from Hampton and Phoebus and made
more stringent at the home. The town Of
Phoebus has been thoroughly cleaned. He
said the stories of destitution in Phoebus
were eXaggerations, and that there has
been no destitution.
About 1,GO0 inmates Of the home. occu-
pants of the barracks where the fever
broke out, have been put into tents and
their former quarters thoroughly disin-
fected from top to bottom. The old soldiers
are cheerful and contented, and are in as
good trim as they usually find themselves.
DR.. Wasdin does not expect to see re-
newal of the outbreak of fever, but thinks
that the critical period has been passed.
