PROF. JENKINS At WORK EXTENSION NOT WANTED.
LAWMAKERS WHO REFUSE TO
SIT.
Extra Session or Nothing" Their Cry
and They Decline to Accept Cooper's
Fourteen Day Extension.

The legislature is on strike. The
Home Rulers did not want an extern
sion of the session. This morning the
proclamation of the Acting Governor
extending the session for IA days was
received with disappointment The
members want to go home.
At caucus held after the House took
recess this morning it was the OPT
Mon of many that the right thing to do
was to adjourn sine die, inspite of the
governors call for two weeks more
session. This is the plan adopted by
the Simon-pure Home Rule element.
An extra session or nothing" is the
slogan. The action of Cooper in signing
both appropriation bills and then giving
an extension of the session for fifteen
days for passage of bills to pay unset
tied accounts and to make loan bill ap-
preparations, throws the responsibility
on the legislature if such bills are not
passed. The Home Rulers find their
political capital less than ever. for the
executive has approved all their appro-
priauons and gives them a chance to
make more under a loan act which is
believed to be all right.
The unpaid bills matter was "inde-
tinitely postponed in the Senate some
time ago This is supposed to finally
dispose of it there In the House this
morning Acting Governor Cooper's mes
sages were tabled entire. The members
do not want to take them up.
An immediate adjournment sine die is
now the desire of a considerable ele-
ment. 1t is stated that today's caucus
decided that motion to that effect
would be brought before the House this
afternoon, the programme being to
notify the Senate in the regular way
that the House is ready to adjourn sine
die and to have both houses take the
ADJOURNMENT tomorrow. In both houses
there are members who have openly de-
clared that they will not sit any more
anyhow, and some representatives who
have gone to other islands will refuse
TO return except for an extra session.
Ihe Home Rulers are very hopeful
that they can force an extra session,
and their efforts are directed to doing
so. 1t Is hoped that a refusal to stay
in special session longer for the pur-
poses which Cooper has declared neces-
sary VIII compel the executive to call
an extra session before many months.

GOV. COOPER 5 ONLY VETO
AN APPROPRIATION HELD TO BE
ILLEGAL.
Hospital for Incurables Approved But
The Method of Getting Site Held
Contrary to Law.

Acting Governor Cooper's only veto
was contained in the following message
to the legislature.
l have the honor to inform you that
I have this day signed Act 4, entitled
An Act making special appropriations
for the departmental use of the terri
tory during the two years which will
end with the thirtieth day of June, A
d. 1903, with the exception of the item
for the purchase of land for site for
a Hospital for Incurables, $4,000, which
l do not approve. The reasons for my
disapprOvai will be found in a message
upon this subject.
The Acting Governors message We
toing the $4,000 for a hospital for in
curables was as follows:
81 am unable to approve of the item
For the purchase of land for Site for
a Hospital for Incurables, 100000 in
serted in Act 4 entitled An Act Max
ing Special Appropriation for the De-
partmental use of the Territory during
the Two Years which will End with
the Thirtieth Day of Jane, A. ID. 1908.
MY reasons for disapproval of this
item, although l approve of the object
sought to be obtained by the Legisla-
ture, are that the clause incident to
such item reading Such transfer and
conveyance of public land Is hereby
authorized without further considera-
tiOn upon condition that whenever such
parcel of land shall cease to be used for
such purpose for three consecutive
years the same shall revert to the Gov
ernment is practically a grant of land
without consideration, which is con-
trary to the Land Laws OF the Terri
tory.
Section 73 of the Organic Act pro-
vdes that the laws of Hawaii relating
to public lands and settlement of boun-
daries, and the issuance of patents on
land-commission awards, except as
changed by this act, shall continue in
force until Congress shall otherwise
provide. 1t is not therefore in the
power of the Legislature to change the
existing laws governing the disposition
of public lands; consequently / believe
this item is without lawful authority
Il return herewith the Act above re.
ferred to for your reconsideration
upon this item.

KAP|OLAN| SUITS G(NNGON
MOTION TO RETRY CLEGHORN
CASE
Trial of Another Suit Begun-Attorney
Poepoe Fails to Produce $3.50 and is
Given More Time.

Motion for new trial was filed this
morning in the case of the Kapiolani
estate against a. 5. Cleghorn, The
motlon is on the ground that the YER
dlct of the jury was contrary to the
law and the evidence. and on the fur
ther ground of errors during the trial
of the case.
Judge Gear took up the case of the
same corporation against the Kaneohe
hahch company. 1t is one of a num-
Der that are all very similar to the
Cleghorn case. A jury was secured and
the taking of testimony was begun.
The Kapiolani Estate cases promise
to take up most of the present special
term of the court. The next two cases
TO follow the one begun this morning
are suits against the company. Sister
Albertina is plaintiff in both cases
The matter of Poepoe's sale of land
belonging to Malama, minor came
up before Judge Gear at 10 o'clock
Poepoe had not the $3.50 he was ordered
to pay into court by 10 o'clock this
morning. He pleaded for further time
and admitted that his testimony yes
terday, to the effect that he had the
money in bank, was untrue. Judge
Gear allowed him until next Monday to
bring the cash into court.
In the cases of S. Andrews VS. Wahi-
nenui and S. Andrews VS.. Keikena. mo-
tions have been made by Attorney p
Il. Weaver to have the cases replaced
on the calendar. They were stricken
off when the calendar was called, as
Weaver did not appear. He states in
the motion just filed that he had re-
ceived no notice of the opening of the
special term of the Circuit Court, and
consequently was not present to an
swer for his client.

LOOKING FOR FuIIHARA.

A watch is being kept by the police In
Honolulu for Fujihara, the murderer
who escaped from Hilo Jail. There is a
chance that he may have escaped from
Hawaii to this city. An officer from
Hilo came down on the Kinau Sunday
to watch that boat and returned again
Tuesday. Other boats have come down
from Hawaii, however, since the escape
of the man. 1t is reported that the
Japanese of Hawaii are united in an ef-
fort to spirit Fuiihara through Homo

wired some years ago has been com
menced and it is the intention OF the
department to vigorously prosecute II
during te coming year. AS result
of the work already done in this di-
rection, three manufacturing establish
ments employing large number OF
people, have been entirely re-wired,
and 40 dangerous telephone installa-
lions remedied during the year.
Three hundred twenty-three permits
for connecting inside wiring with out
side circuits have been issued during
fthe period covered by this report.
Six isolated plants, with a total
capacity of 1873 K w. have been in
spected and approved during the
period covered by this report.
The expense of the department for
the year amounts to $116S3S, as per the
following statement: Resources: bal

The removal Of so much overhead
construction in the centre of the city
during the last three years has re-
duced the number of dead wires to a
comparatively small figure. Three and
Ione-half miles of dead wire, the owners
of which were unknown, have been re-
moved by this department during the
year. The wires thus taken down
consisted of abandoned back strokes,
call bells, private telegraph and tele-
phone lines, the use of which. for
various reasons, had been discon-

City Engineer

The annual report of City Engineer
Frederick A. Mcclure reviews the
work done by his department in sur
veying for streets and sidewalks and
in the preparation of plans for the
sewer department for S.3S miles of sew
ers. House drains have been inspected
and grades given for 551 connections
with a length Of ass miles. The atten-
ton of the department has been given
to the disposal of sewage in the Lake
View district The scope of the inves-
tigation is of such extent that some de-
lay in the report thereon is necessary.
The report also describes the construc-
ton of the new reservoir on Tatnuck
Brook. in which many engineering diff
culties had to be surmounted.
The rainfall during the year has been
above the average, and yet the condi-
ton of the reservoirs at the present
time is anything but assuring. During
the past four years the increased use of
water for all purposes is so per cent in
excess of the draft for 1897. while the
storage during this period has increased
less than % per cent. As the stora ge
prior to that time was inadequate, It
is obvious that the supply is not keep
ing pace with the demand A period
of low rainfall would very soon create
condition of affairs not pleasant to
contemplate. and 7 repeat my former
recommendation that no delay occur in
making secure a requisite storage. The
work now under way upon Kettle
Brook, together with the repairs neces-
lsary at the Paxton reservoir, will occu-
by at least two seasons. and upon COM
pletion viii add very little TO the re-
sources Of the department in time of
stress. The high service system partic-
uiarly requires your attention. The
draft from this source IS nearly 100 per
cent in excess of the demand but four
years ago, and as Kettle and Lynde
Brooks together furnish the entire high
service supply and are not easily rein
forced from other streams, ii is mani
fest that its use should be restricted to
those portions Of the city that cannot
be supplied through the low service.
