is an item of 1000 for the road from
Pucpue to the boundary of South ko-
hala. and of 800. 900 for the main road
from Waimea to North Kona boundary,
Some of these will be included in the
two days which are To be given to South
Kohala after the northern district has
been covered In addition to these roads
there will be an inspection of the Ka-
waihae wharf and the site of the burn
ed lighthouse. which must be rebuilt.
| The remaining three days of the first
week will be given over to Hamakua
In this district there We're contemplat-
ed by the Legislature expenditures
amounting to sl06, 500. The principal
items are of $40, 900 each for the regrad-
ing of the main road and the upper
roads through the homesteads. For the
Ahualoa road TO School street there is
SIS, 900 and for the Waipio road and
branch $4,000 also $40, 600 for Wapio
road from Akaka's store to the top of
the mountain. other roads are Kaau

The inroad of the fires will be looked
into and attention given to the demand
for new jails and court houses.
The second week of the stay beginning
about September 25th. will be given to
Hilo and Puma. The authorized work
there amounts to s24s,2O0. There will
be much attention given to the railroad
situation, as there seem to be some
differences in the matter of the ter
minals of the Hilo and the Kohala
roads 1t will be the aim of the Off
Gals to try and propose a compromise
which will give both lines all that they
need in the way of facilities In the
second place of Importance comes the
opening of new roads in Hilo and the
point will be to arrange for the eNpen-
! ditures along lines which will provide
new streets for the relief Of the present
crowded thoroughfares. The wharf
facilities Of the city will be given care
full consideration, as will the necessity
for the Wailuku and Waiakea bridges.
There is an appropriation for sidewalks
too and this will be taken up. The
Puma roads will get much time and
thought as the growth of the home
steads there make II necessary that
much attention be paid to lines of COM
munication.
Il The third week from October End will
be given to Kau and kona. In the for
mer district the most ambitious work
is that of constructing the road from
Pahala to the Volcano house, for which
sac, 900 is set aside. There are few 9TH
er projects in that part of the island.
The construction Of the road about the
island will claim much attention. In
North Kona the only new works are
the Kailua and Keauhou-kai and the
Keahualono and Huehue roads, for
which there is total OF $1,000. In South
Kona there is an appropriation of $40,
900 for the road from the Kau line to

PlTTSBURG, Aug. IS. - Probable
within ten days was the interesting
topic in strike circles here today, but
nothing definite could be learned. Pres
ident Shaffer said that in the face of
gains made by the strikers he would not
back down from his original position.
The steel officials reiterated their pre-
vious statements that no overtures for
peace had come from the strikers and
that the strike could only be settled By
the return of the men to their places.
The peace proposition sent out by
President Shaffer to the members of the
executive board of the Amalgama ted
Association for their approval previous
to presentation to the United States
Steel Corporation by the representatives
of the National Civic Federation lends
color to the peace rumors and the pro-
visions of the plan We're being discussed
by the strikers at Lindsay and Nc

The proposition provides for a provi-
sional scale not to be signed for this
plant, leaving recognition of the union
open. The men stated that they were
prepared to return to work tomorrow
under these conditions. They stated
that all they would require will be
that the Amalgamated scale be paid
and that union men be allowed perfect
liberty and no discrimination.

preparations had poen made, the tin

Another Man Signed.
Manager Harry Sage has begun get
ting rid Of the dead timber on the
Rock Island team, having satisfied
himself by this time as to the com
parative merit Of the men that have
been on the salary list. Those dis
abled are to be dropped also. for the
management finds that practical
sympathy comes a trihe hard on the
exchequer. The disposition has been
to treat the unfortunate with consid
Grafton, and nearly all season one or
two players have been carried along
with full salary when they were of no
use to the club because of injury or
sickness. The men themselves real.

they are to be cut off Today Mana
ger Sage laid off Olof KraDz. who will
go to his home in Bishop Hill and rest
up in the hope of getting his arm in
shape. 1t has been out of killer for
some days. Kranz has proven one of
the most reliable men on the local
team this season and his admirers are
sorry to see him retire. even tenn
porarily. Hughes and Jarvis were
released, the latter for the reason that
there was no room for him, tho club
having three twirlers left, and the
latter for virtually the same reason.
Jarvis. by the way, is clever pitcher
and an old head at the game and
should not experience any difficulty
in securing an engagement. As for
Hughes, it should be said of him
that he has been one of Rock Islands
faithful aud Woodworking players.
