GO HOME

Mahoe's motion was then carried, the
vote being 10 to S, as Kawaihoa had en-
tered and placed himself in line with
the Home Rulers. while Emmeluth went
on record as being ready to work.
AS soon as the result was made known
Emmeluth resumed his leadership. He
rose while the House was quietly con-
sidering it's position and said: "Since
that is the case, 1 move that the secre-
tary inform the Senate that the House
| is ready to adjourn sine die" The mo-
ton carried and then a recess was TAX
en-, meeting to be at the call of the
Chair There was not long wait and
when the House heard that the Senate
had adjourned without considering
what was to be done, the example of
the upper body was taken and the adj
journment until 10 o'clock this morning
followed.
THE SENATE.
When the Senate met it was found
that there was to be a tie vote if any
| truly party matter was called up. The
Senators in their seats were the Presi-
dent, Kaiue; Senators Brown, Achi,
Crabbe, Paris, White, Kalauokalani and
Kahilina. The issue was sprung at
once, as In the House, when Senator
Brown moved to suspend the rules that
he might introduce a bill. This was
done on the vote of four to three. the
Chair not voting. The bill was the one
to provide for the payment of the bills
of the Department of Public Works,
and when it was read there was slight
explanation of it by Senator Brown,
who said that this was all that he was
interested In just now and that 1t should
be passed.
| Senator White began to object. He
said the fact that these bills had been
held out until this time seemed to him
| to show that there was something more
behind them. He thought it might be
an attempt to discredit the Home Rul-
| ers and show that they were only
wasting time during the session. There
was vote taken on the bill which re-
| suited in a tie.
| Senator White moved to adjourn I'M
| til the afternoon, and just then in came
| Representative Emmeluth. The Re-
lpublicans saw what was up and Brown
moved to adjourn until this morning.
White began to talk. with the evident
purpose of holding the floor until the
message of the House arrived. Emmel
nth prompted him once and Crabbe
called him down in great shape, telling
him to not interfere with the Senator,
as the Senators did not come over and
try to run the Lower House, as he tried
to run the upper one. There was col
loauy between Achi and White and
then as the message of the lower body
was handed to the clerk, White with
drew his motion. But Brown was on
the ground and insisted upon his mo-
ten to adjourn until this morning, and
this was carried four to three, and the
night was given for a re-adjustment of
lines. AS the Republicans left there
was a remark that there would never
be quorum again, but this will not In
all probability be the course followed.
Some of the Republicans said yester-
day afternoon that they would appear
this morning In force, having the full
five votes of their members in the city.
There is one more vote for the indie
lpendents If they can persuade Kanuha
to attend, but that Senator has said
that he would have no more OF 1t.
Should the Republicans have the ma
iority and force the bill through, they
lmay be met on the part of the House
by an adjournment, simply by the alb
lsence of the members who are said to
be ready to go home, on any excuse al
jail. Many Of them said yesterday tina,
they would not stay even If there Is 9
provision in the law that neither House
. may adjourn without the consent Of the
