GOVERNORS COUNCIL

In the Executive Council this morn
ing Attorney General Dole submitted
his opinion in the matter of the appli-
cation Of c. s. Desky for right of way
for the Pacific Heights railway across
government land to Nuuanu street.
The opinion Is an exhaustive one and
goes into the matter OF leases to the
bottom. It closes with: If Mr.. Des-
ky's application is favorably considered
and the land in question Is not sold or
leased to him by public auction, | think
It should be clearly understood and ex-
pressed that he takes nothing more
than a license. revocable at will, with
out airy claim against the government
for compensation or damages in case
II is revoked.
I'm matter which may be OF far
reaching consequences as a precedent.
and in which giving the license asked
for may be construed as a strain Of
executive power, think II might be
wise. IL It is practicable, to seek a de-
cision of the Supreme Court rather
than 10 rely solely upon the opinion OF
the Attorney General b.
Governor Dole stated that he had
been visited by delegation from the
Chamber of Commerce In the interest
OF Hawaiian exhibit at the Pan-Am-
ericaa Exposition at Buffalo. The Gov.
ernor said that he explained to the
delegation thb the first time the Ques-
ton came up, the Council Of State was
engrossed with the problems Of the
plague fsnd did not have time to look
into the question. Also the treasury
was burdened with many demands for
money at the time and 1t YVES not
thought wise to entsill further burdens.
Governor Dole also, said 1t is now too
late 20 secure room or space for, an
official Hawaiian exhibit.
Attorney General Dole brought up
the question OF Mr.. Dowsett's right to
strip a piece of leased land OF all tim
Der NJ Waianae Just at the expiration
Of the lease. The problem was left to
the Attorney General for an opinion.

within the next two years, aud that the
question OF holding the council will be
among those to be discussed by Csrdi-
nal Gibbons In his conference with the
Pope. The probability Of the council,
Catholics say, is increased by the new
question arising out of she acquisition
Of the Philippines and Porto Rico, and
the future OF the Catholic church In
those islands, including the status OF
Catholic clergymen and OF the church
property there. The last council was
held In Baltimore in December, 1884.

HIGH WATER.

Twenty.one feet of water at Colum.
bia yesterday put the water over the
wharves in Richmond and the report
from Columbia was that the water had
reached 80 feet. This report stirred
the business men for o mile along the
water front to remove ell goods likely
to be carried away.
Large quantities OF lumber were
hauled to nigh ground and cellars on
lower Main street emptied. These OF
an early hour last night we're covered,
and before dark the waters commenced
to back up into lower Main street.
Before the night was over the depth
was several feet 10 the paved streets.
Trains were annulled on the James
River division OF the Chesapeake and
Ohio Railroad. The tracks were
covered In many places and several
washouts occurred. At q number OF
stations the telegraph operators were
driven from their offices. The loss to
crops In the broad Rappahannock
Valley has been enormous.
The Rappshsnnock river at Freder-
icksburg yesterday attained q height
OF about six feet less than during the
Johnstown food. Major w. 8. Emmy
lost 10000 railroad ties, and j. w.
Masters about 1000. The new Cool.
Spring Joe plant, on the Stafford side OF
the river, was injured to the extent of
$500. The water was within three feet
of the Falmouth bridge, and at one time
1t was feared that it would be washed
away. The water was upon the streets
of Falmouth and into the Easements OF
many houses along the river front In
Fredericksburg. All the freight at the
wharf was removed to the upper ware
rooms, but the water reached 1t, and
what was not swept down the river was
badly damaged. The gas works and
the electric plant was submerged, and
the city last night was In darkness.
Crops ia the lowlands are ruined, and
the damage will reach many thousand
dollars. The water was slowly falling
last night.
Reports from the upper Rapidan river
are to the effect that 1t was higher yes
terday than ever known before.
Later details from the hood-stricken
section chow great damage done In the
western North Carolina mountains.
Huntdale, new town at the southern
terminus OF the Tennessee division of
the Ohio River and Charleston Rail-
way, is completely wiped out. There
Is reported loss Of life 10 Tennessee
and nearly hundred homes 10 Eliza

gate loss Is estimated at $3.50, 900.
Thousands OF acre, ofcorn are ruined 10

The food In the Potomac river at
Williamsport, Nd, reached Its highest
last night, and 1t Ia believed that the
danger limit is passed. The stage OF
the water was about 20 feet above nor
NAL, being nearly the same height OF
the food OF few weeks ago.

TIE SELECTION of Colonel Francis L.
Smith as the delegate 20 represent this
city and county In the State constitu'
tional convention Ia not only an honor
to 9 worthy and able gentleman, but sn
achievement OF which every democrat
feels justly proud. Colonel smith's
nomination at the primary election
was, OF course, a virtual election, and
the heavy vote he received yesterday
was but ratification OF a previous ex'
preston Of confidence. The colonel is
eminently fitted for such an important
position, and his course, as It has ever
been 10 official life, will reflect credit
upon himself and the good judgment OF
q community who selected him to rep.
resent them on 30 important an oc-

THE MEMBERS of the City Democratic
Committee who took an active part in
yesterdays election are to be congratu-
lated upon the result, for they very
materially assisted In rolling up one of
the largest msjorities ever given for
the party In this city, although they
had to contend with the active work Of
some who had heretofore assisted them
In such contests For the first time In
many years the entire democratic
ticket was elected and the City Coun-
oil will be composed of only those
whose names were on that ticket.
