Overwhelming Majority.

ONCA
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-The Call
has made a canvass of Senators and
Representatives with the object of as
certaining their views on the Nicara-
qua canal. Following is the result:
In favor of action this session-Sena-
tors 62, Representative Zo4. Total

The Hepburn-Morgan bill will be
passed during the present session Of
Congress. 1t is on the legislative pro-
gramme for early conside. alton in both
houses. Speaker Henderson is in
favor of the bill and of prompt action
Senator Frye, President pro tempore
of the Senate, wants action by the SEN
ate and expresses the belief that the
bill will be passed at an early date.
The measure will receive the approval
of the President.
There is an overwhelming majority
in both houses of Congress In favor OF
the pending bill and in favor of passing
it without waiting for the report OF
the Walker commission. These state
ments are fully warranted by careful
canvass of the two houses made by The
Call 1t is apparent from the roll here

HickMAH REsEMTs IT
WHEN NE IS 0vEReHlReED
Green Objects to an Item Of Ten
Cents Demanded by the Police for
Rate Gard.

A rebellion among the hackmen
seems to be brewing. The average
hackman is happy except when he has
no load He talks more than bar
ser and is as garrulous as a hen. but
be never kicks At any rate. he was
not classed as a kicker until lately.
His disposition to howl calamity and
say seditious things about the police,
dates from the passage Of the new
hack regulations.
According to hackman George
Green. who was discussing the sub
feet in police court yesterday morn
ing with Judge Wilcox. Rule q OF the
/ regulations is a relic of the dark ages
and ought TO be consigned to the
limbo of freak legislation or thrown
into the Junk heap Of WORKOUT har-
ness and smashed-up hacks. The rule
requires hackmen to keep a fare card
in little leather pocket in the back
part OF the vehicle. Green was ar
rested for ignoring this law. He said
in S facile way to Judge Wilcox.
that his fare card had been lost or
stolen and that he applied to the po-
lice for another. They produced the
card but wanted to charge him 10
cents He spurned the offer and
drove away, CARELESS.
He was thereupon subsequently ar
rested. Judge Wilcox allowed Green
to go with a reprimand, a sort of
blanket reprimand for the whole force
OF Honolulu hackdrivers. The judge
said in effect that whether hackmen
liked the regulations or not thew
would be enforced. AIe intimated mat
the hackmen as class were too am
bilious and held too exalted notions of
their ability to influence the powers
that be.
This hackman perhaps would be
real nice and hand back little item
Of overcharge should any of his pat
rons happen to have the chance. All
Of them do. And he NAV be irving 20
reverse the Mark Twain act and have
the police department revoked for
overcharge.

erty by the handsome residences
which will be erected on them.
The administration of the springs
by the government, Mr.. Eisele saws,
has been wise and benefcent. The
amount of water distributed to each
bath house is scrupulously controlled
and the public protected from mon
opoly and extortion by the schedule
of charges provided by the score
tary Of the interior. The free gov
ernment bath house has grown to be
a most important institution and OF
great benefit to INDECENT sufferers
who otherwise would not have the
benefit of the waters.
The record of this establishment
for the last year shows 9,508 appli-
cations for free baths, of which only
PIG were refused, for various rea-
sons. The total number Of single
free baths given was 169, 030, at a
net cost Of 1.57 cents per bath. One
of the curious features Of the free
bath patrons noted in the report is
that there are bath fiends who have
a morbid craving for the treatment,
much the same as the craving fol
drugs and whisky among other in
ebriates. This class is a considerable
annoyance to the management.

The following report concerning
the reservation in and about Hot
Springs, Ark, will prove of rare in
terest to a great many Of the readers
Of The Republican, who know little,
if anything, about how that place Is
operated by the general government:
Martin A. Eisele says that the
springs during the past season reach
ed the high-water mark of popular
ity. According to the best estimates
there were $4,000 visitors during the
season. The income to the govern
ment from water and ground rents
amounted to $500, while the fix
ed charges were only about $4,000,
leaving a fair balance, which, in ac-
cordance with the liberal policy of
the government, was available for
additional improvements in the res
ervation.
The reservation includes Oil
acres, and in this tract there are 15I
government lots still unsold. The
superintendent says the sale of these
lots, which have been appraised at
$4,000, would 90 far toward provid-
ing the money necessary in perfect
ing the work of park improvement
now going forward, and he recon-
mends a reappraisement of the
ground and the sale Of lots during
March, 1901, when the influx of Wis
itors to the springs is at its height.
The sale Of these lots, he says, also
will be of benefit to the municipality,
as many Of them stand in the way
of street improvement, and their pri-
vate ownership will subject them to
taxation for the benefit Of the city,
while adding to the value of prop
