MONEY FOR THE FIRE
CLAIMS AWARDS
IN HAND
THE SUM OF $4,000 NOW IN
HANDS OF THE TREASURER
AND WILL BE PAID WHEN
COURT DECIDES QUESTION.

The sum of $4,000 received yester-
day by the Nippon Maru from the Fed
eral Government for interest on bonds,
is now III the possession of the Terri
tOrial government and ready to be dis
tributed among the holders of China
town fire claims awards, pro rata. 1t
will not be paid out, however, until a
decision is rendered by the Supreme
Court in the cases appealed from the
Circuit Court, involving two of the
awards and testing the fire claims act.
The cash on hand amounts to about
ten per cent of the total awards, and
ten per cent will be paid, the small
balance, if any there is, being taken
from other money in the treasury. The
payment of this small portion of the
awards will require a great deal of
work, as much, in fact, as paying the
warrants in the regular way. 1t means
one more handling of the 1000 claims
in the offices of the auditor and treas
urer and all for The sake of giving out
10 per cent of the amounts awerded by
the fire claims commission. There viii
have to be about seven thousand new
warrants made out and signed and dis
tributed in addition to the 10000 al
ready made, for three annual Install
ments on each of the claims The orig
/ inal warrants will have to be changed,
to deduct ten per cent paid.
! The expected decision of the Supreme
| Court will settle the authority Of the
| fire claims commission as a court OF
| last resort on claims In the event OF
the act falling, the Territorial govern
ment may let the matter go and wall
for Congress to act. 1t is thought thai
| if Congress decides to pay the claims
the awards of the fire court here WI
be accepted whether the commission
was legally created or not.
In the meantime Deputy Auditor
Meyers is preparing to furnish the
Senate Commission which recently WIS.,
tied the islands, with a bulky state
ment of bubonic plague records. There
will be several hundred pages to gt
over, containing figures of expenditure!
in fighting the plague. This Will be in
corporated in the report of the com
mission, and will go to show hoV
much Hawaii spent in keeping dow
the epidemic. 1t will add greatly t
the bulk of a Congressional report tina
probably consists of several volume
without the plague figures.

THE PORTO RIcANs.
Governor Dole Making an Investigation
Regarding Their Condition

Governor Dole Making an Investigation
Regarding Their Condition
A. G. Hawes, secretary to the COVER
nor, left on the Claudine today for Ha
wall, to Investigate the condition of
some Porto Ricans at Paauilo, who
have been making charges that they
were i'll treated in Hawaii. The inves-
tigation is a part of the general inquiry
into the treatment of Porto Ricans in
Hawaii, made by the governor under a
request from Washington for a report
on the subject
The Paauilo Porto Rlcans charges
are substantially the same as those
coming from other parts of the islands,
and which have been sent to Porto
Rico in the mail, and from there to
Washington, with the result that the
governor of Hawaii was asked to re-
port on the matter. Investigations
have been made at other points, and
Hawes report from 4'aauilo will COM
plete the information for the Cover
nors report on the subject. The Porto
Ricans quarters and the conditions
under which they are working, as
well as the various charges of i'll treat
ment, will be inquired into. Hawes
will land at Laupahoehoe tomorrow
and will take the Claudine back or
her return trip next Friday.

SUPREME COURT.
Case of Ables VS.. Falk Dismissed on
Legal Point.

The Supreme Court this afternoon
ruled on two motions and then adjourn
ed to November II next. The case of
Ables VS.. Falk was stricken from the
calendar on motion of H. A. Bigelow,
on the ground that the transcript Of
evidence had not been filed according to
rule. Davis made strenuous" OBJ
jections, declaring that counsel had no
right to come in with such a motion
on the last day of the session.
In the case of the Hawaiian Invest
ment and Trust Company VS. Annie c..
Barton ct al, which was tried in Nov
ember 1901, in the third circuit Bige-
lows motion TO send east the shorthand
notes taken by Miss Frances Washburn,
who was stenographer at the time, so
that she may write a new transcript,
was granted. The record has been lost
and no one but Miss Washburn can
read the notes. An effort will be made
however, by counsel, to have the short
hand read here, before the book is sent.
Davis objected on the ground that the
court had no jurisdiction to order Miss
Washburn to make the record and
swear to it, but the order was duly
made, directing Henry Smith to send
the note book to her in Tennessee, and
it will probably go forward on the Ala
media tomorrow.

FOR COUNTY GOVERNMENT
The Hawaiian
Sugar Season
Soon to Close

SAN FRANCISCO, October 5.
The Hawaiian sugar season
has come tQ.-a close. The big
oil-burning steamer Enterprise
with a cargo of ZOO bags of
sugar, has arrived from Hilo
and is discharging at Long
Wharf. This is the last regular
cargo for the year. The sea-
son has been a very profitable
one for the Southern Pacific.
The increase in traffic over last
year is about 40 per cent. The
season which will open next year
is looked forward to as promis-
ing to be the greatest in the
history of the islands.
The islands have had an am
pie supply of rain and planta-
tions are growing full crops. The
feature of the sugar this year
was the introduction of oil as
fuel on the sugar steamers. The
Enterprise has made three trips
to Hawaii and return with oil
as the only fuel. The success of
the experiment has been proved
beyond question. Several new
oil-burning steamers will be put
on the run when the next season
opens.

DIVIDENDS TO Be POOLED
America Maru
Will be Late
in Arriving

The America Maru will be late
reaching Honolulu from the
Orient. She left Hong Kong two
days late on account of having
to stop at Manila on her last trip
out. She was unable to make
up any Of this lost time between
Yokohama and Hong Kong and
left the Japanese port two days
behind time.
She Is expected here tomorrow
morning. She has 800 tons of
freight This cargo will be dis
charged as rapidly as possible
and she will sail in about five
hours after she arrives at Homo
lulu. There may be a race to
San Francisco between the Anne
RIGA Maru and the Alameda.
Both boats will leave within a
few hours of each other. Cap
tain Going now has the excuse
for showing his boat along and
trying for the record between
Honolulu and San Francisco.
The America Maru came to
Honolulu from Yokohama re-
Gently under days. She has
gone to San Francisco from this
port under 5 days and II hours
and will probably try to do bet
ter on the present trip.

WILL CHECK ALL
ISLAND ACCOUNTS
GEORFE KING OF THE AUDITORS
OFFICE, LEAVES FOR KAUAI TO
INSPECT ALL OFFICIAL BOOKS.

G. w. r. King of the auditors office
left last night for Kauai, to represent
the department there in a general in
spection of the books of public account
ants on Kauai and Niihau. Eventually
he may go to other islands on the same
mission and a general overhauling of
accounts will be the result, 1T is stated.
There has been no auditing on Kauai
at all. AS far as the Garden isle Is
concerned the audit act appears to have
been a dead letter, and the visit of King
will put the act in effect there for the
first time. He took with him author
ization from Deputy Auditor Meyers,
acting auditor, to examine the accounts
of all public accountants, not only for
to find out the disposition of public
funds, but also to ascertain whether
any of the accountants have failed to
make collections of money that should
have been paid in.

NATIVES TOO CIVILIZED.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 6.
Theodore Wores returned on
the Alameda from an eighteen
months visit to Honolulu and
the South Sea Islands. The OBJ
ject of my trip was to study and
sketch types in Hawaii, but l
found the natives too civilized
to be artistic. There is nothing
of the old-time native life left.
They wear the costumes of Eu-
ropeans, and most of their old
customs have fallen into disuse.
However, l made a number of
sketches of the life as it is, but
it was in Samoa that L found
what | searched for.
