Your committee recommend that this

New Reservoir and Pipe, Nuuanu
Valley, $150,OO0." Your committee be-
lieve it is far more important to sup
ply the town with water than to sup
ply them filter where there is no wa
ter. We therefore recommend the

Your committee recommend the in
sertion of new item as follows:
New Pumping Plant and Pipe, Bere-
tania Street, $4,000. Your committee
are informed by the Superintendent of
Water Works that this will be sufli-
cient to provide for an auxiliary pump
and new 12-inch well at Beretania
street of capacity OF 100000 gallons
TO height Of say 800 feet, to furnish
water for the sufferers now residing
on the slopes of Punchbowl, Manoa
and Nuuanu valley and to supply an
upper zone by connection with the up
per reservoirs, Nuuanu Valley, the
running expenses Of which pump need
not be very great as 1t will only be re-
CURED in dry seasons such as we are
at present having and when 1t will be
fully sufficient to keep the Govern
ment electric lights RAINING and to
keep a sufficient supply always on hand
for the residents on tho upper slopes
OF the city.

biennial period $4,000 feet of S-inch
pipe, $4,000 feet of 6-inch pipe, 67,500
lbs Of lead. And that the hauling and
tools and labor and fuel necessary for
laying this pipe will require the whole
amount Of $4,000 asked for. AS your
committee consider that good water
service Is very essential, we recon-
mend that the item pass at 100000.
Seventy-five Fire Hydrants. Honolu-
lu, $4,000. Your committee recommend
that this item be amended to read as
follows: $50 Fire Hydrants, Honolu-
lu, $4,000" This is considered abso-
lutely necessary owing to the new
pumping plant at Kalihi and the new
hose companies which the committee
have recommended in their report IN
Act ., and for the proper protection OF
property against loss by fire. We there
fore recommend that the item pass rs
amended.
Hilo Water Works. $4,000. Your COM
mittee recommend that this item be
increased to $4,000 as necessity for
that amount Is urged upon the COM
mittee by Superintendent of Public

pass as in the bill as 1t is all that is
asked for and Is considered necessary
and sufficient.
Waikiki and Kahului Water Works,
$4,000. This item your committee
recommend be increased to 100000.
We find that $4,000 only was asked
for in the bill as it was believed at
the time that the Superintendent
would have been able to have expended
more under the appropriation under
last Loan Act. This he las not been
able to accomplish owing 10 delays &C.
casioned by difficulties of shipment
from San Francisco and from Honolu-
lu to Wailuku. Your committee are in |
formed that $4,000 more which has
been unexpended will lie necessary TO
complete said water works. We there
fore recommend the increase.
Lahaina Water Works, $4,000. Your
recommend that this item
be increased to $4,000. DIS we have been
by the Superintendent Of
Public Works that the Government has
sent up a civil engineer to estimate
the requirements necessary to supply
Water Works for Lahalna and that his
report entails an expenditure of SEQ
900 and the Superintendent of Public
Works believes that the whole amount
will be necessary. Your committee
recommend the increase.
Your committee recommend insert
ing a new item, as follows
Court House and Jail, Nawiliwili,
Kauai. Water Supply, $500. This
amount Is asked for as there has been
no water to supply the Court House
and Jail and water can now be easily
