D|SCUSSEDEXTRA SESSION
EXECUTIVE COUNCIL DID NOT
AGREE.
Three Members Favored Giving Law
makers More Time-Fifteen Days
Special Session Now Talked of.

The matter of calling an extra session
of the Legislature has been up in the
executive council and, it is stated, met
with the approval of three of the men,
bers. Now that the present session is
about ending, the legislators are again
wondering what are their chances to
have another try at lawmaking
When the matter came up in council
Governor Dole was away. Superinten-
dent of Public Works Boyd, Treasurer
Wright and Land Commissioner Boyd
were all in favor of another session
Acting Governor and Attorney General
Dole opposed an extra session. 1t was
thought that Governor Dole, if present,
would have stuck to his many times
stated policy of not granting an extra
session, and this left the council divid-
ed, with the executive against the ex-
ira session.
The latest plan is an extra session
of fifteen days, in which it is claimed
that the Legislature could pass a loan
bill, license laws, and other revenue
producing measures, but could not take
up such matters as the county bill
The "ten day limit" would operate
within five days of the beginning of the
session, and no bill could be passed
through both houses in less than six
days, so that the legislature would
really be in the hands of the execu'
tive.

.FUN|GAT|NG P|NEAPPLES
HAWAIIAN FRUIT DAMAGED AT
SAN FRANCISCO.
Authorities Fumigate on Account of a
Scale That is Already Plentiful in
California.

California has taken to fumgating
pineappes from Hawaii now and it is
feared that the pineapple business here
will be seriously injured if the fumiga-
ton is not stopped, The fumigation is
on account of a scale known as the
Dactyiopius, which is found on pine
apples here, but which, it is declared
is even more prevalent in California.
Commissioner of Agriculture Wray
Taylor is trying to have the order for
fumigation revoked on the ground that
it is useless and works great injury to
Hawaii.
The scent of fumigation often fingers
with the pineapples long after they are
treated and spoils their sale
"The Dactylopius scale is more plen-
tiful in California than it is here" said
Professor Koebele, government entO-
mologist, land fumigation of pineapples
from Hawaii, when they enter San
Francisco is useless. California gem
orally has far more insects than Hawaii
has and far more serOus ones. In the
case of the Dactylopus, Hawaiian pine
apples may often be affected but what
is the use of California fumigatinP the
pineapples when that state has more
Dactylopius than Hawaii?'
Taylor will write to the authorities
at San Francisco and protest against
the fumigation, giving Professor Koe-
bele's opinion that it is not called for
under the circumstances.

STEAMER.
DIR. Jenkins Who Was Here in 1889
viii Relieve Him-Dr Evermann
Forced to Retire.

President David Starr Jordan who
has charge of the United States ichthy-
illogical expedition to these islands has
nearly completed his portion of thu
work here He will return to Stanford
University, sailing July 16 on the MARI
post. This does not mean however, that
the work of the expedition is finished,
for Or. Jordan will be relieved by DR..
Jenkins who occupies the chair of phy-
siology at Stanford University. DR..
jenkins came to these Islands in 1889
and made one of the largest collections
of the fish of these waters ever gather
ed When President Jordan passed
through here last summer from study
ing the fish of Japanese waters he stop
ped off and collected a number of fish
for Professor Jenkins.
The expedition lost a very valuable
member this morning in the person of
Dr. Barton w. EVermann the head of
the experts of the ichthyological de-
partment at Washington, d. G. Dr.
EVermann was so i'll with dysentery
that his physicians ordered his imme-
diate removal to a colder climate as
they felt that in such a change was
the only chance of saving his life. He
has been ill with the disease for two
weeks past. Just how it was contract
ed is not known. DR.. Jordan thinks
that DR.. Evermann got the disease
from drinking hydrant water while on
some of the numerous expeditions after
new specimens of fish.
At first it was not thought serious
but the disease rapidly became worse
and it was finally deemed imperative
to remove him to San Francisco. DR.
Evermann will probably return here If
he RECEIVERS sufficiently in strength. He
was accompanied on the steamer by a
trained nurse and viii also receive the
personal attention of A. r. Serven and
w. A. Rodenberg the civil service COM
missioners who will take charge of him.
DR.. EVermann was so weak that it was
necessary to remove him in the police
ambulance from the Moana Hotel to
the steamer Peru this morning

LEGISLATURE BROKE AGAIN
PRENDERGAsT EVOLVES A PLAN
TO SPEND.
Wants to Add Constitution and OrFanic
Act to the House Journal-Sine Die
Adjournment Discussed.

The House began a strong finish to
its career this morning with a freak re-
solution that will be the last or nearly
the Iast, for the end rapidly approaches
The resolution was to incorporate the
Constitution of the United States and
the Organic Act of Hawaii in the print
ed and bound Journal of the House.
Members were making calculations this
morning on the time for an adjourn
ment sine die Some thought that Sa-
turday should be fixed upon, and others
that Monday would be better The
conference committee was reported to
be rapidly going ahead with the current
expenses bill, and in both houses the
disposition is to accept the action of
the committee. The house adjourned
to meet Friday afternoon, when if the
bills are reported and typewriter, they
Will be passed, and a time set FOR an
adjournment sine die,
Chairman PrendergaSt of the Print
ing Committee was made leader of the
run at the treasury, bringing in the re-
solution that the constitution of the
United States and the Organic Act of
Hawaii should be Incorporated with the
journal of the house. The resolution
created some amusement, and sugges-
tions We're heard that the Book of Ge-
neSis and the Sermon on the Mount be
put in too Dickey misunderstood the
resolution at first and seconded it,
but hastily withdrew his second when
he found out what the scheme was.
1t was announced that a price of 81 500
had been agreed on for the printing of
the journal. Prendergast thought that
if there was any money left, it ought TO
be used for the proposed addition 10 the
journal, He was informed that there
was not a cent.
Dickey smelled a rat and wanted to
know how it was that the money was
gone before the end OF the session,
when there were more salaries of OFF,
GERS to be paid. 1t was found that the
officers had given notices to Treasurer
Wright that they were Coming" with
warrants. and the amounts for which
they had given notice We're duly con
sidered as gone"
Beckley said that the S17 900 looked
| like II cents now, and that the bill fot
the extra printing would have to go as
claim against the next Legislature.
Mahoe moved to table Prendergast' S
scheme and the motion carried, only
two or three votes being cast in favor OF
/ printing the constitution and organic
act as a part of the House journal.
Prendergast was disappointed. He
4 drew picture of readers of the house
journal suddenly finding out when they
We're in the middle of a chapter of aD-
| sorbing interest, that they need to refer
to the constitution. They would have
to drop the thrilling volume of House
proceedings and go to a library for the
constitution, he said,

DR. JORDAN GOING HOME WILL FIGHT INCOME TAX JUDGE LITTLE Reversed MU WILL FILED
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. WILL
"GO AT EN-"
In Conjunction With The Merchants
Association Will Bring Matter Into
The Courts.

BY a unanimous vote the Chamber of
Commerce at noon decided to contest
the constitutionality of the Income Tax
Law. A committee which will confer
with the Merchants Association was
instructed and empowered to that end.
The meeting was the biggest one held
by the Chamber in number of months,
thirty members being present. Presi-
dent Allen was in the chair and opened
the meeting.
Wolters, Waldron & Company applied
for membership in the chamber The
application was referred to committee.
1t was voted to give Diamond Head
Charlie new flags and codes. The cost
will be about 500
A letter from j. c. Hemphill, one of
the heads of lie Charleston exposition
asking that the Chamber send suit
able display, was discussed Indifferent
ly and no action was taken.
The income tax matter was then
taken up. Mr.. Atherton expressed his
views and was followed by Henry Wa
terhouse. The latter believed the law
was not constitutional but if it was
there was nothing to do but submit to
it,
George r. Carter spoke as a member
of the Legislature and as one on the
Senate committee that considered the
tax bill He said that the features of
the old law objected to by the Supreme
Court were eliminated from this mea-
sure and he believed the new law to be
constitutional. Personally he favored
an income tax law as being the most
equitable way of raising revenues, but
be believed that 1t should affect every
body alike. The fact that only persons
with certain incomes were affected
would cause hard feelings and was real
ly against the spirit of the constitu-
tion. In the Senate the speaker tried to
make the tax a of one per cent and
have it levied on all incomes.
Mr.. Rothwell moved that a commit
tee of three be appointed to confer with
the directors of the Merchants Associa-
tion, who alreauy have power to act, as
to the best measures to be adopted
This motion was seconded by Mr.. Par
malice. Mr.. Macfarlane believed that the
committee should be empowered to test
the constitutionality of the law, and
/ finally put his views in the shape of q
motion. Colonel w. F. Allen, James G.
| Spencer and ]. b. Atherton were ap-
| pointed on this committee.
Colonel Allen reported a letter from
/ w. c. Weldon, who is giving stere-
opticon lecturers on Hawaii in Boston
| Mr.. Weldon wanted to continue the
lectures in Cleveland and Gorham d
| Gilman wished to continue them in
Buffalo. The two gentlemen asked the
Chamber for expenses only. not desir-
ing any salary On motion $3.50 was
voted for the purpose.
On motion of F.. j. Lowrey the dues
of the Chamber were fixed at $36 a year
payable monthly

LABOR hard 70 OBTAIN
JARED SMITH HAS TROUBLE
TOO.
Began With Force of japanese and
Is Using Hawaiians Now-Tantalus
Work.

In doing the United States agricultu-
raj work here, Commissioner Jared
Smith has encountered much difii1il-
ties in getting labor, and he says he is
ready to believe that the man who can
manage a large plantation here and
keep laborers at work is man of large
executive ability. Smith first tried Japs
but they were as untractable as em-
ployes of Uncle Sam as they are when
they work for private parties. Liberal
indulgences in sake at various times
interefered with the progress of affairs
on Tantalus, and Smith decided to try
natives. The natives he has secured
have the Saturday night luau habit
strongly established. and they show up
in damaged condition on Monday morn
ings.
Il don't wonder that the plantations
have difficulty" said Jared Smith, lana
/ have a higher opinion Of the managers
that get along without trouble, since
have had "a bit of experience with get
ting laborers here. ! find it very hard
to secure men | can get any work out
of, though / am not after any large
number. The Japs / first tried were not
a success, and now l am trying Hawai-
ians."
The agricultural bureau uses less
than twenty laborers. Work is being
continued on the Tantalus reservation,
preparing it for the experimental work
to be done there.

Court for Sixteen Countrymen Who
Interfered With His Business.

for the arrest of sixteen Chinese on
charges of conspiracy. The warrant

complaining witness the Chinese work.
men have banded together for the pur-
pose of compelling the proprietors of
wash houses to employ only members
of their union and to pay these en-
ployes such prices as they demand.

union succeeded " inducing them to
stop work with him and join their

the sixteen Chinese who are alleged to
be members of the washermen and
ironing mems unions. These men so
