ONE AT ONCE.
Land Required, Which Belongs to the

McCandless' Report.

The Government today decided to
condemn land for a roadway from the
beach road at kakaako to the channel
wharf, A road win be put in on the
Waikiki side of the Healani boat house
The land belongs to the Bishop Estate
Sometime ago the Executive asked the
Bishop Estate for its figures and terms
on the land and was answered by a
proposition that would not be enter
tained for moment. The estate not
only wanted a big price and private
concessions but wanted the Government
TO exempt II from taxation in that loca-
hty in future for betterments incident
to street improvements. This the Exc
cuttve now throws aside and takes up
the cudgel left to it by the law The
land Will be appraised and paid for ac-
cording to appraisement.
superintendent McCandless reported
at length on his tour of Hawaii, relat-
ing in detail the work he had done in
looking over the roads and bridges and
other public improvements. To his
mind the requirements of the big island
are very great and the budget to be
presented to the next Legislature will
be unusually large. The superintend-
ent also referred at length to the re-
quirements of the island in other lines,
among them in health laws. He con-
siderS II Will be necessary for the gov
ernment to take care of sanitary mat
ters in different localities better than
in the past.

superintendent McCandless showed
plans of the proposed new fire house in
Palama. The plans were satisfactory
to the Executive and will doubtless be
followed.
Mr.. Brown spoke of the condition of
a man who had lived up to the terms
of a special rights lease but had never
received a patent from Washington,
and wished to know if that person could
bid upon a second right of purchase
lease. 1t was the opinion that he could.
S. K. Kane asked the government
to put up at public auction a piece of
tarO land and a fish pond in Waikele,
Eva, to go to the highest bidder. The
Executive though as there was no spe-
cial use of the property it could be put
up at a reasonable upset figure.
Harold M. Sewall applied for an addi-
tional piece of land adjoining his place
at Waikiki. No action was taken but
the property will probably be put up at
auction later on,

TEST Of SIR CH|H CHING
MUST PERSUADE ENGLAND OR,
HE is NO GOOD.
The Empress and Tai Yuan are Unre-
pentant and Anxious to Carry on the
War-Earl Ii.

LONDON, Sept. 5.--The Chinese Min
lister here, Sir Chih Ching Lo Feng Luh,
admits the correctness in general
sense of the cable message sent to him,
according to Shanghai advices, by Ii
Hung Chang, in which the latter is
quoted as saying:
"Our ST. Petersburg Minister has per-
suaded Russia to leave Peking. You
are useless if you cannot persuade Eng
land"
The Chinese Minister here also says
he has sent a powerful memorial to
Lord Salisbury urging him to adhere
to the Russian proposal to withdraw
the allied forces from Peking, as he,
Sir Chih Ching Lo Feng Luh, believes
it will pave the way to speedy settle
ment. The Minister also said the Chi
nese people were sick of the war, that
the genuineness of Ii Hung Chang's
plenipotentiary powers was undoubted,
and that Ii Hung Chang was working
in full sympathy with the Emperor
Dowager Empress and Privy Council,
all of whom favored peace,
The Minister added that he himself
was still in communication with the
Chinese Government, whose authority
remained entire, and which was merely
temporarily residing in the Province
of Shan 81.
No official pronouncement is yet
/ forthcoming here in regard to the deci-
1 sion OF the POWefS concerning Nnlndt
| but the consensus of opinion continues
suggestive of a compromise on the pro-
| posals now under consideration. In
! the meanwhile here is little authorita-
tive indication that the Dowager EN-
press is ready to treat for peace, even
| If the allied powers reach an agree
ment in regard to the best means of
opening negotiations. On the contrary
many rumors gathered at Shanghai
suggest that she is carrying on her an
ti-foreign policy with increased zeal.

decree is also said to exhort union OF

KIND TREATMENT OF RELATIVES
IN PRISON.
A Pleasant Surprise in Tidings of I'm
pected Moderation in Prison Treat
ment-Its Possible Meaning

The Bow Wongs' relatives who were
made prisoners in China on account
of representations made to the imperi-
al government by Consul Yang w al
Pin of Honolulu, and Yo How of San
Francisco, have suddenly been accord
ed much better treatment than they
were given them first cast into Jail
according to adVices received by the
Bow Wongs here, both directly and
through the Bow Wong society of .an
Francisco.
The Honolulu members of the Bow
Wong society were made happy Jnis
morning by news that all tortures OF
the political prisoners had ceased, and
that they were being given unexpect-
edly good treatment, though they are
still in Jail
The news applies to the province Of
Kwang Tung, in which the great city
of Canton is located, and from which
most of the Chinese in this country
have come. 1t was in Canton that
most of the relatives of local Bow
Wongs who were arrested were locat-
ed
Ii Hung Chang has been in Carton
much of the time since the pres Mt
troubles began, and it is thought pos
sible that his counsel may have had
something to do with the unexpected
moderation in the Canton prisons. The
usual treatment of a Chinese political
prisoner is cruel i'm the extreme.
The Bow Wongs congratulate them
selves that the new order with re-
gard to their relatives in Jail is the be-
ginning of a policy in the southern pro-
vinCes that shows that the imperial
government has come to respect their
power and is afraid of them.
Clinton j. Hutchius, manager of the
Pacific Mutual Life Company who
keeps a close watch on Chinese affairs,
also received letter from Bow Wong
friend in San Francisco, in which was
news of the change in prison policy.
"It shows" said Hutchins, who made
friends with many reformers while he
was in China, that the authorities at
least in the Canton province, have come
to the conclusion that the best way IS
to stand in with the reformers."

STOCKHOLDERS OBJECT.
Not in Favor of improvements at the
Orpheum.

1t is understood that a majority of
the Orpheum stockholders object to an
increase of the capital stock of the
company. They claim that they have
not received a cent of income on the
money now invested and they have no
hope of any dividends, if the place is
enlarged Some of the stockholders, to
their sorrow, have discovered that run
ming a theatre is a very risky business,
One stOckholder said this morning:
"The Orpheum does not pay. On one
or two engagements we made a little
money, only to lose it again. The place
has been mismanaged in a marked de-
gree. The performances given lately
We're suitable for sailors and not for
respectable people. The general public
were quick to find this out and now
they keep sway
I'VE have not received a dividend
since the company was organized. We
were promised good returns for our in
Vestment. / see no chance for the fu-
ture, and therefore, do not favor the
proposed Increase of capital to be used
in enlarging the present theatre. II
the Hawaiian Opera House does not
pay interest to the owners, l do not see
how the Orpheum is to be made to pay.
The company has lost thousands OF
dollars during the past six months.
"The proposed improvement is a
good thing-for the Kapiolani Estate
They are to sell or lease some land TO
| the company"
