Nothing has yet been done with the
several Hawaiian land bills introduced
at this session of Congress. II have
only just organized my committee on
Territories said Mr.. Knox. the chair
man, yesterday. II have not had time,
to tell you the truth, to read Delegate
Wilcoxs bill. The poor fellow is very
i'll now, and of course, we can do
nothing for n time until he Is able to
come here in behalf of it, What does
the bill provide for?" Mr.. Knox asked.
Division of public lands into four
classes, and extension of homestead
laws to many portions of this land,
etc. ETC." was the reply.
"Ah, that will never do for Hawaii.
interposed Chairman Knox. THAT is
a sugar growing country. The home
stead laws will never do for the Ha-
waiian Islands. You can't raise sugar
on homesteads. 1t viii do for coffee
plantations. No, the homestead laws
are not suited for Hawaii. The de-
fects in these laws for our own public
lands are glazing enough. and they arr
much less suited for the Islands in
the mid-Pacific. where the industrial
conditions are far different than here"

loon previous to being quarantined. had
several drinks and, II is believed, left
germs for others, McGwin being the first
sufferer.
In fact. Moriarty told the health officer
OF East Providence that before his de-
tention he had been drinking in Nc
Gwins saloon.
McGwin's residence is on Ives street.
