There is constituted by the bill a
Territorial Board of Public lnstitu-
tons consisting of territorial officers.
To this board is transferred all power
relative to- harbors and wharves hous-
as of correction and refOrmatory insti-
tutions, territorial peuitentiary, charit-
able institutions, executive building and
judiciary building. The present oahu
Jail is declared to be the territorial
penitentiary and an persons under sem
tence of one year or more must be con-
fined there. A part of said building is
to be used as the jail of Oahu County
The present school system remains
intact. The Board of Health is likewise
continued with duties and powers as
at present.
ELECTIONS.
The present election law is by the
bill applied to county elections and all
necessary provisions made for such
elections
The bin provides that it shall go into
effect i'm January 1904 except as to
certain matters relative to the powers
of the Territorial Board of Public In
stitutons, which take effect immediate
ly. Provision is made for an election
in November, 1908 for officers to con-
tinue in Office for one year, to be sue
ceeded by the officers elected for two
years at the general election of 1904.
Detailed provision is made for the prop
er organization of the counties, and
for the transfer TO them of necessary
records and of all public property now
used in connection with works and in
stitutions which by the Act pass under
their control. In order that the coun-
ties on their organization may not be
without any funds the bill provides
for the payment by the territory into
the treasures of the several counties
of specified sums.
Whatever may be the desire of your
i Committee, or of the Legislature that
the bill should go into effect at an ear
lier date than provided, it is our judg-
ment that the date should remain as
nXed. Should the system be inaugural
ed at any other time than the COM
mencement of the calendar year, it will
readily be seen that very great confu-
sion might result.
In submitting this bill for your con-
sideration, we feel that perhaps there
are some provisions which will not
meet with your approval, and that De
/ fore urging its passage by the legis-
/ lature, changes will be made by you. II
/ the system as a whole meets with your
approval, we respectfully ask that any
' changes made by you before submitting
/ the bill to the legislature be made care
fully and consistently,-tha is, in such
a way that no confusion shall arise
from making an alteration in one part
of the bill and failing to make ii in an
other. For instance, a change of date
in Title ". on Revenue, would lead
to utter confusion unless other dates
therein contained were changed accord
| ingly. And should the general plan
meet with the approval of the legisla-
ture, but amendments be offered and
made, we likewise request that your
committee do all in it's power to see
that such amendments be properly
made.
The bill does not cover salaries to be
paid to officers as we deemed it best
to keep that subject separate and apart
from the general system We recon-
mend that you cover that by separate
bill.

DIED.
CAMARINOS-In Honolulu


Honolulu, Hawaii,
January IS, 1903, of aneurism of the
heart, Demetrius George Camarinos,
a native of Gereece, aged about As
years. He was born in a little town
in Sparta, and his parents desired
that he should enter the ministry of
the Green Orthodox church His edu-
cation was planned with that object
He attended the University of Athens
for a time. A brother of his is now
professor of mathematics in that in
stitution. Abandoning the idea OF
entering the church, Camarinos en-
tered his fathers store as a clerk. He
came to New York in 1877 and after
remaining there a short time he came
to San Francisco. Here he found
the real opportunity for his capabil-
tiles. He became fruiterer expand
ing the business to mammoth proper
tons and embracing every fruit
growing country in the world, almost
within the sphere of his operations.
He amassed considerable wealth, but
lost much of 1t, partly through his
Venturesome enterprises, and partly
from the good nature that extended
credit unwisely For a time he was
acting Greek consul in San Francisco.
He established his younger brother
p. G. Camarinos in the fruit business
in Honolulu in the early nineties and
on the death of that brother, ne came
here in 1897 and continued the bust
ness.
The funeral will be held at 8 o'clock
this afternoon, from the undertaking
parlors of II. II. Williams.

Strikers Observe a Truce
Out of Respect for

FEW CARRIAGES NEEDED
Undertakes Fear Public Is
Educated to Less Osten-
tation in BurialS.

CHICAGO, Dec. 22.-Respect for the
city's dead, combined with the addi-
tional impulse OF discretion. has prompt
ed undeitakers and livery employees TO
observe 4 truce i'm the strike of hearse
and carriage drivers. Many OF the sub
urban stdertakers were allowed to con-
duct funerals with hearses this morn
ing without interference by union pick
cts. Most of the funerals were of mod
est -oportions
In the small number of carriages or
dered and an absence OF the customary
expensive provisions Of the obsequies,
despite assurances Of the undertakers
that all the carriages required might
be had, the undertakers think they
foresee a shrinkage in their future bus
mess.
The undertakers say the labor unions
are responsible for educating the public
into the belief that elaborate funerals
are not necessary. In such cases the
loss will fail upon both un6le-takers and
strikers and the saving be to thS benefit
OF relatives Of the dead.
Meetings will be held thls afternoon
TO provide for arbitration.

OF HUSBANDS MURDER

Crime-Sentence Suspended Until
AFTER Trial of Accomplice.

BENNINGTON, VT, Dec. 22-The
jury in the case of Mary Rogers, who
has been on trial, charged with the
murder of her husband. Marcus Rogers.
returned a verdict today of guilty Of
murder in the first degree.
Mrs. Rogers. who had been separated
from her husband. lured him to lonely
spot and, with the aid of a half-wittcd
admirer, Levi Perham, chloroformed
him to death. The body was thrown
into the river, to make it appear that
Rogers had committed suicide. The mo-
tive of the crime. as brought out in
the kial. was the desire of the woman
to obtain a small life insurance which
her husband carried. With this she
hop',d to start housekeeping with
young militiaman with whom she was
in tive.
Tne courtroom was crowded when the
jury brought in its verdict
Mrs. Rogers face was Daler than
usual. but she was apparently the most
unconcerned of anyone in the room
when her fate was annou aced. She
gave no sign of emotion. nor did she
finch in the least.
Sentence was suspended until next
Tuesday, when the case of Stella Bates
and Perham will be taken up

'Coghlan's Instructions.
Instructions given TO Admiral Cogh-
Ian by the Navy Department allow him
great latitude. and if he should find
it necessary to take aggressive action
he could well do so under the instruc-
tions. With fifteen warships at The
isthmus or on their way there. and
about 5000 marines and seamen who
would be available for a conflict on sew
eral days notice, the United States IS
well prepared to meet any emergency.
Naval officers who are familiar with the
northern coast of the isthmus say that
the Island OF Pines is admirably adapted
for use as a military base. 1t Is OF
volcanic formation, mountainous. we'll
wooded and amply supplied with pure
water. Lying close TO the mainland.
from which only one or two miles or
shallow water separate it, the Colom-
bians would be safe from complete
blockade and I'm position TO slip over
TO the isthmus in small boats and under
the cover of darkness At the same
time the conformation of their base
would protect ii from bombardpesnt and
TO a certain extent from attack
