The two hours of the morning Sos
sion were nearly all spent i'm discussing
methods of procedures The ,vorl, ,vas
distressingly slow and some Of the
members who wanted to get down to
business began TO feel ir,itated before
the hour of recess. Twice motions were
withdrawn for no other season tbor
that there appeared to be no chance of
getting at them through a cloud of
amendments and other rnotfons ana on
intermiable discussion When tbe
members become more familiar with
the rules it is predicted that they viii
do business uuicker but at present
much more time is spent in very small
disputes about how to proceed than in
doing anything. The net resuIt of two
hours session this morning was adont-
tion of a report of the committee on
rules. and the time was none of II
spent in looking over or discussing the
rules
The spectators' seats were all 6uad
British consul Hoare was among those
present and number of well known
citizens Turk and Lewis took nm mo
minent places in the gallery" Natives
We're in majority in the hall.
Minutes, resolutions, reports and
speeches were given in both Hawaiian
and Englinsh.
