LODGING HOUSES UNDER SCRUTINY.

Proprietors Of hotels and lodging houses in the
city busy filing reports with the State Super
intendent Of Elections at No. 5s5 Broadway yester-
day. The law requires that they shall file reports
thirty days before the election, showing the
names of all regular guests dodgers who may be
voters al the election The information is demand
ed by Superintendent McCullagh for the purpose Of
preventing Illegal registration and illegal voting.
The police are required 10 make inspections of the
lodging houses and ascertain the names of the
dodgers each house thirty days before the cleo
ton.
The inspections of the police began on Saturday
night and were continued on Sunday night The
inspections of the police in the lodging houses in
the Bowery caused some CONSERVATION among the
dodgers. as usual. Many Of the dodgers in those
houses have horror of police Investigations, State
Senator Sullivan declared that the reports from the
lodging houses probably would disfranchise many
good Tammany voters who worked night and
slept in the day time when the police
around. Superintendent McCuIlagh said yesterday:
The law provides that when a hotel-keeper or
lodging house keeper takes license he agrees TO
give the police captain Of his precinct thirty days
before election list and complete description o.
all his guests that make their voting residence
with him. II applies all over the city. Guests at
the Fifth Avenue Hotel not exempt. and Pro-
always in sending down the names of the voters
from his hotel The police in their raids last night
framed protect the ballot right here in this city.
AS for Senator SulhVans assertion that the mid
night inspections throw out all persons who work
throughout the night. that Is easily answered Any
man should be capable OF protecting his vote.
If he is anxious and lives in lodging house
all he has do is to insist upon the keeper of the
lice That is easy enough for any one 10 do who Is
really anxious 10 vote

POLITICAL POT BOILING IN HAWAII.
NATIVES SHOWING GREAT INTEREST IN THE
APPROACHING ELECTIONS

APPROACHING ELECTIONS
Honolulu Sept 23-The native Hawaiians are
showing much interest in the approaching election
OF Delegate TO Congress. and registering rap
idly and in great numbers. Out Of 200 voters
registered the Island OF Oahu. which this
city is situated, nearly 2G0O are Hawaiians. This
interest is very likely produced by the report
which has been circulated among them that il they
succeed IN elect.ng a Delegate TO the Ameri-
Congress the annexation bill will be repealed
and the Queen restored TO the throne. The bet
ter educated OF the natives have identified them
selves with either the Republican or Democratic
party in the islands. but large numbers led by

orga 1ization. It is asserted that If these indie
pendent voters succeed in preserving their or
ganizat;on and work together at the election they
will swamp the party organizations But the ma

t!cian. and he Is easily led by strong leaders. It
i extremely doubtful II independent organiza-
ton among them will prove successful, and it is
quite likely that many will coalesce with one or
the other Of the regular party organizations
There some signs OF a lack OF harmony in
the Republican ranks over local issues. Up to the
present time there has been municipal govern
ment IN Honolulu in any Of the towns OF the
islands. all local affairs having been conducted by
the general Government. Many who have become
residents o. the islands since annexation are clam
