WILL LLNOTMSTSTOCA HERE THE PUBLIC LAND LAWS
AZTEC TO PROCEED
TO MANILA TODAY.
Reached Port Early This Morning and
Took Only 100 Tons Coal to Com
plete Voyage.

After nine days of uneventful steam
ing the animal transport Aztec was
sighted at an early hour this morning
days from San Francisco. The vessel
steamed around until the boarding Of
ttcer passed her when she came into
port and went to the Irmgard wharf
On board the Aztec are 200 mules and
21O hOreses all for the quartermasters
department at Manila. GOOD weather
and the care given the animals resulted
i'm only three horses and one mule be-
ing lost
There was scarcely any necessity for
the Aztec stopping at this port for she
took only 100 tons of coal and her
quartermaster stated that he intended
getting away for Manila by o'clock
this afternoon. This is an entirely new
method of procedure for the animal
transports and is in line with the re-
commendation of Captain Shaker the
former depot quartermaster at this
place. He notified the quartermasters S
department that he did not regard it
as necessary to land the animals at this
port and rest them for four or five
days as had been the custom. In near
~ every instance the horeses were able
to complete the journey without such
rest ashore. Sick animals could he
suggested be left off here.
Lieutenant A. G. Nielsen of the
Sixth Cavalry who is the quartermaster
in command of the ship evidently holds
a similar opinion for he will not trans
fer the horses ashore but intends to go
straight through to Manila. The ami
mails were brought from Nevada and
are fine, tough appearing lot of stock.
Dr. w. Il. McBain of Toledo Ohio is
the veterinary and his assistant is DR..
w. E. Chase. There are A teamsters
who have the care of the horses.
The other passengers on the trans
port are Dr. Captain James, a physician
in the volunteer army and a hospital
corps man. Lieutenant Nielsen is going
to the Philippines to join his company
which went out on the Hancock recent
ly with the home squadron which had
been ordered to the Philippines

FOR HOUSEKEE KEEPERS.

Alum is unfit for food, producing in
digestion, alum heart, sallow complex
ion, constipation and attendant Ills. 1t
is not fair to our people that such a
substance disguised as a baking pow
der should be sold in order to allow a
maker or a grocer a little more profit,
regardless of the health of the family.
Good baking powder costs about for
ty-five cents a pound. Alum baking
powder is sold for twenty-five cents a
pound or less. The difference in cost
between a good and wholesome baking
powder and an alum powder would not
exceed a dollar for a whole years sup
ply. People are very foolish to take the
risk and suffer i'll health for the sake of
a few pennies, which after all are not
saved.
Good baking powder is one of the
most useful things in the household,
and we seriously urge our readers to
save their health, and money also in
the end, by insisting upon having a
good brand like the Royal. This pow
der is shown by the Government
tests to contain neither alum or ammo
mia.

VENTURA LOST TINE TO PACIFIC
MAIL RIVAL.
Captain Seabury Reached San Fran
cisco in Little over Five Days and
a Half From Here.

Advices by the Hongkong Maru yes
teruay tell Of the result UI the alleged
race from here between the CElna
ana the Ventura. Inc CHINA made the
trip in days, l6 hours and 40 minutes
Nnie the ventura nau not been heard
OF OF "a hours later According to the
report by the HOngkong the Ventura
Ialled to make the good showing that
had been expected ana in realty, the
emma made quicker trip than did the
Oceanic vessel
The China and the Ventura were
bOth scheduled TO sail from here on
April End but the China got in a day
ahead of time and was able to clear
Tor the Coast by few minutes after
o'clock Of the md. The Ventura was
late III reaching port from the Colonies
SO was not even sighted up to the time
thar ihe China left this place. The
Neptura got away for San Francisco
ats noon OF the Ord, the China having
TINS Il start of about 19 hours.
When the China left here Captain
Seabury said that he did not intend to
race the Ventura because he had orders
to make schedule time. Evidently the
old sea dog did not take any chances
however on the other boat overtaking
him for he moved along at little faster
clip than is usually made. The China
reached San Francisco a little after
noon of the Sth, but inasmuch as the
record is reckoned from pilot to pilot
her record was a little better than this,
making the figures as already given.
The HOngkong Maru left San Fran
cisco for the Orient at o'clock, the
afternoon of the 9th, just 26 hours after
the China arrived Absolutely no trace
of the Ventura was seen by the Hong
kong Maru. Inasmuch as the vessel
could easily have been sighted by those
aboard the Hongkong up till dark it is
evident that the China gained on her
rival. Indeed, it looks as if the China
had actually gained about 13 hours on
the Ventura. Thirty-two hours elapsed
from the time that the China arrived
in SAM Francisco until the Hongkong
could have sighted the Ventura in day
light so that the original difference in
time of 10 hours between the departure
of the boats from here was increased
just l3E hours by the China.
It4's possible however that the APP
pareStiy, indifferent showing made by
the Ventura may have been due to
some of her machinery meeting with
an accident.

TIE FORIY-E|GHTH DAY
LEGISLATORS DISAGk-.- IN THE
COUNT.
The Time for Free Legislation Getting
Very ShOrt-May Day Holiday Reso-
luton Killed.

Robertson introduced a resolution to
declare today the 4Sth day of the ses-
sion. He figured it out on the calen-
dar The clerks papers had today
down as the 45th day, and the state
ment that today is the 4Sth came as a
bombshell to some of the representa-
tives. 1t meant that the county bill
and practically every other bill before
the house was doomed to be subject to
the will of the governor. There is no
chance to get the county bill through
before the fiftieth day now.
RObertsOns resolution was sent to the
judiciary committee and thus lot of
debate was avoided. Several Home
Rule members We're preparing to talk
against the proposition that they had
gone as far as the 4Sth day.
The Senate resolution to make the
first of May "A school holiday was voted
down, on motion of Kumuae.
The Governors message vetoing the
dog tax bill was read and laid on the
table for future consideration. The
veto was a keen disappointment to
some of the Hawaiians and an effort
will be made to pass the bill over the
veto.
Three bills were received from the
Senate and were quickly passed. One
was House bill number AZ to provide
for numbering of buildings in Honolulu.
The Senate crossed out the words pro-
Viding for numbering of lots as well as
buildings.
Keiikoa made an effort to strike out
Of the minutes all that took place yes
terday afternoon after Akina left the
chair, declaring the House adjourned,
but the minutes were approved,
House bill number A. to establish
and maintain school Libraries, amend
ed by the Senate by striking out the
section appropriating $4,000 for the
Libraries, was referred to a committee
for a conference with the Senate.
Makekau introduced a concurrent re-
solution adopting rules for joint ses-
sions. 1t was passed without the rules
being read.
Robertson offered a resolution in
structing the committee on accounts to
report to the House all warrants drawn
against the appropriation for House
! expenses, stating for whom and what
each warrant was drawn. The reso-
/ luton was adopted, though the anti
/ haole" gang opposed il.

HOUSE PREPARING TO LOOK
AFTER THEM.
A Resolution Opposing the Change in
Behalf of Which Brown Went to
Washington.

The following resolution regarding
public lands was introduced by Repre-
sentative BeCkley in the House this
morning and was referred to the COM
mittee on Public Lands and Internal
improvements:
Whereas, the Governor has admitted
to a committee of this House, that tue
trip of j. +. Brown, Commissioner OF
Public Lands, to Washington, ID. c.,
was authorized and directed by him
and that among others things the said
j. f. Brown was instructed by the Gov
ernor to advocate the repeal or modi-
ftcation of that clause in section 80 of
the Organic Act, which reads as fol-
lows:
That no corporation. domestic or
foreign shall acquire and hold real es-
tate in Hawaii in excess of 1000 acres,
and all real estate acquired and held
by such corporation or association con-
trary hereto shall be forfeited and
escheat to the United States, but exist
ing vested rights shall not be impair
ed
Whereas, e. p. Dole. Attorney
General of the Territory of Hawaii, has
recently rendered an opinion that leases
OF PUBIC Lands by corporations in eN-
cess of 1000 acres or in addition to the
land in fee by such corporation, is not
prohibited by the above mentioned
ClduSt' ana
Whereas, there is an evident desire.
on the part of public officials Of this
territory to remove all obstacles and
allow corporations to increase their al
ready too large holdings and thereby
monopolize all the agricultural lands
to the great loss and detriment of the
citizens of this territory; therefore be
it
Resolved. by the House of Represen-
tatlNes, the Senate Concurring, That we
the representatives of the people in the
Legislature assembled, do firmly and
sQlemnly protest against the repeal of
sEd clause in the Organic Act and
most respectfully ask that the Attor
ney-General of the United States be
directed by the President to commence
suits i'm the United States for the re-
coVery of all public lands in Hawaii
Illegally and unlawfully disposed of.
and If necessary that said suits be an
pealed to the Supreme Court of the
United states in the interest of the
people anG for protection against the
lnordinate greed of corporations in
trying to control practically all the
pubic lands in this territory"
Certified copies of the resolution are
to be sent to the President, Attorney
General, Secretary of the Interior, Pre-
sident of the Senate and Speaker of
the House and to the delegate to Com
gress.

THAT PLEA IN ABATEMENT
ASSAULT on THE FEDERAL.
GRAND JURY.
Case Being Heard in Judge Estee's
Court Today-Several Witnesses Call
ed-Podmore's Citizenship.

The plea in abatement leveled at the
Federal grand jury yesterday by clients
of Attorney LOrrin a. Andrews, came
up in the United States district court
this morning and is still on. Several
witnesses have been called, Mr.. An
drews has finished his argument and
this afternoon District Attorney Baird
has the floor for the legality of lhe
grand jury
An important phase of the case came
up this morning. j. w. POdmOre, whom
1t was claimed was not an American
citizen, and the allegation was used as
plea that the jury was illegal was
called to the stand. He has in his
possession two papers, one granting
denization and one a paper granting
special rights of citizenship under the
constitution of the late Republic The
whole question as to Podmore seems to
be whether Judge Estee will recognize
his special rights papers as conferrilg
citizenship 1t appears that while the
Federal judge has repeatedly dacid Il
that he could not confer American
citizenship upon them, he has not yet
decided whether or not they them
selves confer Hawaiian citizenship, and
that that in turn admits the holder.
Miss Kate Kelley was called in re-
gard to Podmore's papers. w. G Weed
on, foreman of the grand jury, went on
the stand to state that the jury was
not unanimous in the indictments re-
turned, and w. O. Smith was called in
regard to the special rights provision i'm
the constitution.
The question of the legality of draw
ing the jury is being argued along with
the other.

was finished the noon hour came and a
recess was decided upon.
