The committee to whom was referred
ha ,,ft
following report:
Honolulu. T. H., August s, 1901.
H. C. Slogget, NJ. D., President Board
of Health.
Sir-Your committee appointed to in
Vestigate the matter of subsidy and
transportation of freight beg to report
as follows:
The freight and passenger guarantee
for weekly common carrier service be-
tween Honolulu and several Island
ports does not benefit or concern the
board in any way, as none of the leper
ports on Molokai are mentioned in the
appropriation. We do not understand
why the appropriation was placed I'M
der this department.; however, we
would recommend that tenders be ask
ed for at once, in order that the people
at the ports called for may receive
continued communication with Homo
lulu.
After an interview with Mr.. Wight.
of the Wilder Steamship Company, he
agreed to withdraw his letter of July
by which the board was notified that
in future warrants would not be &C
cepted in payment of fares of passen-
gers.
In the matter of transportation OF
freight we would recommend that the
monthly subsidy of $500, now paid by
the board from the appropriation of
segregation, Support and Treatment
of Iepers," be withdrawn, and that
tenders be called for as follows:
/. Rate per ton for transportation
of all freight for the Board Of Health,
including packages for, the lepers, il
accompanied by a permit from an
officer of the board, between Honolulu
and settlement.
2. Transportation of lepers or an
agent Of the board between Honolulu
and settlement.
8. Rate per head for transportation
of cattle from Hawaii or Maui ports
to settlement (Waikolu).
4. Rate per bundlesfor transportation
Of paiaf from ports on windward side
of Molokai to settlement.
Bids to state frequency Of trips, and
how direct service will be given Re-
spectfully submitted,
