SAN FRANCISCO. April 7.-IIonolulu ad-
vices dated March 81. received by the Dor;c,
are as follows:
1t is estimated that the cost of fighting
the plague Will reach at least s2O00,rn, a
large part of these expenses having been
Incurred In finding homes for the people
who were burned out by the fires, particu-
larry the great cOnfiagration of January 20
Heavy expense has been incurred in build
ing the detention camps that have been put
up and for provisions for the people kept
in them The salaries of physicians at slID
per month also make up a considerable
part of the payroll. and there have been a
number cf paid inspectors, fumigators
heads Of departments. etc.
Eight hundred japanese residents of Hon
olulu who were burned out in the China
town fire on January ~. have petitioned
the government to exempt them from taxes
for the year 1900. 1t is doubtful II the
request Will be granted. for to do so would
be to open the way for similar claims on
the part OF some 10000 Chinese and nearly
as many natives.
The court OF claims will consider the mat
ter next week

ADOPTED BY THE SENATE.
Senator GaIIinSer's Resolution for
Protection of Teachers.

The Senate today, without debate adopted
the following:
Resolved, That the committee on the
District of Columbia be instructed TO in
quire and report to the Senate whether any
teacher in the public schools of the District
has been cenSured or taken to task by a
superior officer on account of the testimony
given by such teacher during the recent in
YestigatiOn of the public schools"
In accordance with this resolution the
Senate committee Will promptly investigate
any charge that is brought before it in such
cases as are contemplated by the resolution
1t is generally understood at the Senate
that if any official Of the public schools has
attempted to annoy any teacher under him
because OF his her testimony given re-
Gently at the hearings on the public school
system. and IL such attempts shown to
have been made, very positive action will
be taken.
The result Of such attempts being proved
would probably result in influence being
brought to bear for the prompt dismissal
from the service of the offender.
1t is believed that II will not be necessary
to cause the dismissal of more than one or
two school officials, if it is necessary to take
such heroic action, in order to have it fully
understood that teachers are not to be an
nOyed in any way on account of having
testified to conditions in the schools, no
matter what their testimony showed.

The grand jury in Bradford county, Pa, in its recent report recommended that the act of the last legislature with reference to the employment of male prisoners Tn the jail be put into operat- tiOn in that county. That act makes it lawful to require that every male prisoner in a jail or workhouse per form eight hours of manual labor each day of his imprisonment. This is to be done under the direction of a prison board composed of the judge, sheriff and commissioners of the county. The prison board has full authority to com pei such male prisoners to work on public highways outside the limits of the jails and warehouses, but within their respective counties The prefer ence is to be given to public roads lead ing to and from county seats, and in order that the work may be equitably distributed no more than five miles is to be completed on any road until a like mileage has been completed on each and all main roads connecting with county seats.
