Taxes are not properly assessed. II
there were penalties compelling tax as
SCISSORS to value property justly there

nue. than is now collected"
Carter corrected Kanuha in regard
to revenue, stating that the revenue to
be depended upon could not exceed
81 400, 900; that there was no knowing
what the income tax would amount to,
therefore the loan bill must pass, and
only the amount necessary need be
used. Kalauokalani favored the loan
bill, in spite of Senator Kanuha, to
provide for schools, roads, bridges and
wharves. The bill was then read
through and passed second reading.
Senate Bill sc, providing for the ap-
preparation under the loan bill, was
brought up on motion to pass second
reading to put it upon the same basis
as bill So. A motion to adjourn was
lost, and consideration of the bill con-
tinued. After an aimless discussion
the bill passed second reading.

$50 O'Clock. The bill then passed sec
ond reading, and was set for third
reading today.
Senate Bills SIS and &c were consider
ed. The former bill provides for a loan
of $4,000, 600, of which $1,50O, 600 are
available for the biennial period; the
latter provides for expenditures under
the loan bill in accordance with the
government estimates. Discussion over
the bill was spirited.
Senator Russell did not believe that
the people should be saddled with d
debt of s5,000.000. Senator Baldwin ex-
planned that this amount of debt was
not saddled upon the people; that only
81. 5000 600 was borrowed. The bill pro-
vides basis for issuing bonds, ana
the next Legislature need not borrow
a cent under it if unnecessary.
Kanuha-'1 do not believe we should
go into debt. There are revenue bills
now before the Senate which, if pass
ed, will yield 1900. 900. We should
pass these bills, and not borrow any
money. The income tax alone ought to

In spite of the lateness of the hour
the Senate was in good humor, and in
a mood for work. Tie license bill be-
ing the order of the day, delayed by
the reading of the county bill, was
taken up. Senator Carter moved to
amend his own bill to have the mer-
chandise license read to include all
merchandise sold in the Territory OF
Hawaii. Mr.. Carter explained that the
bulk of the sS3, 900 tax from this source
fell upon not more than fifteen firms
in this city, and that the intent or the
law would be defeated, as the present
law is now evaded by firms that sell
large bills of goods, claiming that the
accounts are not entered upon the
books of the agents here; that the
Mainland firms deal directly with local
customers. By having the license tax
based upon all merchandise sold in the
Territory, the burden would be equal
lied. Carter's amendment was adopt
ed.
Senator Baldwin thought the rate OF
hree-eighths of one per cent on all
merchandise sold, too high, and offered
an amendment to cut it down to a
quarter of one per cent. Carried. The
bill then passed second reading, and
was set for third reading today.

was passed to third reading. The bill
limits the total amount to be paid to
81. 100000. if the commission finds the
amounts claimed substantiated to that
extent.
Senate Bill 81, to regulate the taking
of the census every five years, was
passed second reading, and third read

THE TRAMWAY LOSES IN THE
TERRITORIAL SUPREME CURT
he Way Now Cleared for the Rapid Transit
Company to Push Its Constructive
Work Ahead

Etreet, such as the erection of poles and
wires, without special act of the Legis-
lature, which the Tramways Company
has not obtained
The third claim of the Tramways
Company was that it held an exclusive
franchise to lay tracks along all streets
covered by its tracks, except that it
conceded that the Rapid Transit Com
pany had the right to lay 700 feet on
each street.
The Rapid Transit Company disputed
this claim, and the question came tn
issue upon whether the Rapid Transit
Company had the right to lay a track
along King street paralleling the Tram
way Company's track; Alakea street
was also affected by this question.
/ The court holds that the Tramways
Company does not have an exclusive
franchise and that so far as the Tram
ways Company is concerned. the Rapid
Transit Company has the right to lay
it's tracks on any street, whether the
Tramways Company has a franchise
there or not.
The questions at issue were brought
before the Supreme Court on an agreed
statement Of facts, signed by both
companies.
The filing of the decision yesterday
clears the atmosphere and allows tho
Rapid Transit Company to go ahead
with its construction over the streets
where it has not been able to lay its
tracks until the matters at issue had
been settled.
The doubt as to its right to lay
track on the streets occupied by tbs
Tramways Company, and the possibil-
ity of double track electric svsten
competing against 1t, has also affected
the Rapid Transit Company's credit
heretofore. The decision should Npul
new life into. the Rapid Transit Com.
pany's 6e yelopmcr.t.

The Supreme Court filed an importar
decision yesterday morning which set
tied the peculiar questions which have
been at issue between the Rapid Tran
sit and the Tramways Companies.
The Tramways Company claimed
first, that i! had the right TO
double-track all the streets covered by
its franchise. The effect of this claim
If substantiated, would have been TO
shut the Rapid Transit Company out
of such streets, as many Of them are
too narrow to allow third track.
The court has decided that the Tram
ways company does not have the right
to double-track; that having failed so
to do during the time fixed by its orig
fnal franchise, it is now confined to a
single track.
The second claim Of the Tramways
Company was that it had the right to
now change from horse-car 10 an
electric system.
The Rapid Transit Company claimed
that Ii did not have such right under
its franchise: that 1t possessed that
right from 1890 TO 1897, by special act
of. the Legislature, but continually re-
fused to avail itself of the privilege;
that I'm consequence the public was
forced to procure franchise for the
electric system, which is now being IN
stalled; that it would be unfair to those
who have now invested their capital In
the Rapid Transit Company to allow the
Tramways Company after it had Dos
itively refused to change its system, to
now do so.
| The court holds that as electricity
was not a method of propulsion at the
time the Tramways franchise was
granted, that it cannot now adopt any
method of propulsion which will place
an additional obstruction upon the

proceedings this morning by presenting a
report on the Rapid Transit Company.
finding the company guilty of breaking
the conditions of its franchise.
The committee suggested alterations
but did not approve the resolution to de-
clare the franchise void. Extracts from
the report read as follows:
We found Hotel street extension,
known as Palace Walk. in practically an
impossible condition. so far as the road
way or crown of the street was involved,
by reason of the height of the rails above
the present street macadam level. Be-
tween Richards and Alakea streets your
committee came across the steam roller
and other appliances of the Government
~sually operated in street construction,
in the act of filing in material and roll

for the Rapid Transit tracks. Your COM

was done at the expense of the Rapid
Transit Company or the expense of the
Road Bureau, but we desire to call the
