HARBoR EXTENSION.
First Meeting of U. s. Commission
With Hawaiian Ministers.
(From Thursdays Daily.


The representations of harbor condi-
tions here to the authorities of the
United States have received prompt
attention at Washington; and the sug-
gestiOns, plans and documents forward
ed there have been carefully investigat-
ed and studied by the experts at the
capital. The large increase of shipping
and the evident congestion of the Ho-
nolulu harbor were facts that called for
immediate action, which the United
States authorities at once began pre-
pairing to take in conjunction with the
Hawaiian Government.
Yesterday afternoon Major Ennis,
Captain Shaker and Lieut.. Hancock,
representing the United States, called
at the Executive building and spent
harbor extension with Ministers Young
and Mott-Smith. The meeting of yes
terday was a preliminary one and the
commission will meet again tomorrow
with the Minister of Interior to con-
slider the question further.
Minister Mott-Smith said yesterday
evening that the call means that Major
Ennis has been ordered by the United
States Government to appoint COM
mission, of which he Is to be chair
man, to proceed at once to investigate
Honolulu harbor with view to Its ex-
tension to meet not only the necessities
of the present but those of the future.
1t is learned on good authority that
the investigation will be carried out at
once and that the plans and specifica-
tions for the new harbor will involve
no small labor and expense The work
is to be done in the most thorough
manner and the plan adopted will aim
to relieve present necessities first and
to provide for those arising during the
next quarter century of rapid develop
ment.

Buildings Burned.

A report from Fire Commissioner
Brown was noted. Mr.. Brown had car
ried out the instructions OF the Board
of Health in reference to the destruc-
ton by fire of the premises on King
street, near the Waikiki turn, former
ly occupied by the plague victim All
Chong.
The principal business of yesterdays
meeting was the consideration of what
disposition was to be made of the Ha-
waiian Hotel Stables. After the mi
nor questions of the day had been
dealt with, President Wood introduced
the subject OF the stables and opened
the matter by reading a letter from
A. j. Campbell, inspector of the dis
trict including the Hotel Stables, rela-
tive TO the history Of the plague victim
All Hung. This letter was published
In full In yesterdays Advertiser.

All Stables Suspicious.


DR.. Wood: All stables, in my opin-
ion, are open to very grave suspicion
The history OF the Pantheon Stables
proves that. Even after the Pantheon
Stables had been burned, the ground
had not been baked and piles of muck
were found under the ruins that had
not been touched by the flames. Some
OF the stalls would not burn at all,
their timbers were SO saturated with
liquid manure. They had 10 be torn
down, many OF them, after the fire and
burned.
STABLES are favorlte resort for
rats; they get In under the floors and
nest In and around the stalls. Then
In the stables In Honolulu there is no

more than a roof on posts
Mr., Hatch Then there Is very lit-
lie evidence that infection lies IN the
Hotel Stables?"
Or. wood: IAN the evidence is con-
talned In the cases of All Hung and
the japanese who was taken from
there In January"
Mr.. Hatch THE evidence is very
slim. II Is just as likely that the dis
ease in the case OF All Hung was con-
tracted In some place other than the
Hotel Stables. The stables are in an
unusually clean condition"
Here somebody asked II the evidence
did not tend to show that infection
had come from the ground.
DR.. Wood: ''In the two last cases
the symptoms go TO show that infec-
tion was taken through the stomach
or lungs. This Is conclusive evidence
that the bacilli were taken in through
the mouth in food or breathing"
Considerable discussion followed.
DR.. Days Opinion.
Somebody asked DR.. Day what he
thought about the matter He said:
Il think the gravest suspicion is at
tached to the premises, and until sus-
picion is cleared, the place should be
put in quarantine"
More discussion followed until Mr.. |
Smith made the motion that the Hotel
Stables be at once put into quarantine
and that nothing whatever should be
allowed to be taken away from the
premises until they were properly dis |
infected under the supervision of the
Board. This motion was seconded and
carried.
Opening of Schools.
The question OF opening the schools
was brought up and Professor Wood |
was invited to state his case. DR.. Wood |
read letter from the Citizens SAM |
tary Committee relative to the mat
ter; this letter was published in yes
terday's Advertiser.
Inasmuch as the committees inspect
Drs would hereafter make only one

causes have so moved the fence In
many places that II is eight inches or
more out OF plumb. Where there was
any obstruction In the way OF digging
A post-hole, no attempt was made to
make the hole as specified; but the
posts were set on the ground and small
braces were put up to hold the posts.
The top Of the fence boards were
not placed or cut to line, and the APP

That the boards had to fit close down
