Wright introdu ed his bill al

military, and moved to pass on
irst reading by title. Fernandez
strongly opposed it, saying there
was no need for it when we have

Aylett supported the bill ard
spoke strongly for it, reading the
United States militia Law Approved
last January Fernandez called him
to order for this, but the Speaker
ruled Aylett to be in order. Then
Kupihea got after him, asking
whether the Military committee had
ever yet reported, aud no attention
being paid him. he said sternly:
ANSWER my question" He wss Or

the Chair, the last time b ing

The previous question being call

speaking, Fernandez's motion was
put and lost, and the bill passed
fret reading.
The Order of the Day was then
taken up and several bills we're ad-

it came to Bill 20. to abolish the

be excused so as to meet the Gov

bills on the same subject.
The Cremation Bill mo p then
next came up, together with the
committee report to indefinitely

at once to his feet, Offering an
amendment, and made a strong

of Health. He quoted various re

currences.
Greenwell raised point Of order
that he was not speaking on the
subject, but the Chair ruled him in
order, as he offered an amendment.
Then Kupihea butted in and OBJ

GEARY STREET ROAD.

IT HE Examiner of September 10 attacks the
estimates Of the City Engineer as to the cost of
Il operating the Geary-street road and character
ICES them 'hasty.' The fact is that the City En-
gineer was several months in making these estimates
that he is the only official upon whose estimates the
municipality and that he has estimated that it
will the city annually $2o $50 in of its re-
ceipts to operate this road pay the interest on its
bonds and raise the sinking fund positively required
by the charter.
But apart from these figures how about the loss Of
the profits that would to the city franchise
were granted to private owner? The Examiner has
carefully refraned from noticing these items and yet
they most important.
The city would receive about $4,000 year in
taxes from any private owner OF this road This
it would forfeit if it owns the road. This amount
would be added to the general to make up the
required sum, as no one believes that the general
taxes would be reduced that amount. The taxpay-
ers generally would have this additional amount to
pay. The reasoning applies to the license ices
and to the sums that would have to be paid for IN
juries resulting from the negligence OF the employees
A municipal corporation operating street railroad
is that extent acting in private and not public
capacity and many courts hold it liable for such in
juries.
Then again under the charter if private individuals
corporations own the street railroads the CITY VIII
necessarily derive a profit from them as to all
franchises granted. II a franchise in granted the
city receive at least per cent of the gross
ceipts for the first five years per cent for the next
ten years and per cent for the next ten years If
the gross receipts of this road amount to 100000
year the city would receive during the twenty-five
years of the franchise the of $4,000, $500
year This would be the citys profit from the
road, earned without the expenditure of dollar or
the imposition of a dollars taxation the people
In addition the city would at the expiration of
the franchise the roadbed and fixtures the streets
without any cost to itself or the taxpayers.
Is there a business that would hesitate
second between the two propositions, viz: Borrow
$4,000, and mortgage his property to secure the
oan invest it in enterprise that his expert ad-
wiser tells him will cost him annually $2o,55o more
than his income Give another the privilege of
undertaking this enterprise, let him do the borrowing
and charge him for the privilege $IS,85o year?
And yet the Examiner urges the people to undertake
the losing venture rather than receive the certain
profit, not because OF any public necessity, not to
supply any urgent public need for any sensible
reason that We have yet heard.
The San Francisco call., 1903-09-21

officer both failed to give the necessary
order TO clear the steamer, and the re-
suit was a collision with the Drummer.
A court martial followed at which the
watch officer was cleared and the captain
held responsible and sentenced to three
days confinement in his quarters. An ap-
peal was taken from one court to another
and the highest tribunal recently con-
frmed the sentence. Another case is that
of the cruiser Ariadne, which was run
aground at Brest three months ago It
was shown that accident was entirely un-
avoidable but nevertheless the court SEN
fenced the captain to one days arrest and
the navigator to three days both to be
contned to their quarters for that period.
The designations in the United States
navy show no abatement and it is likely
that some law will be passed bv Con-
gress to curtail this practice. There have
been eleven designations since January /.
1903 namely, three lieutenants, one junior
lieutenant, one ensign. two passed assist
ant surgeons, two naval constructors, one
assistant constructor and one second lieu
tenant of marines. The resignation of the
eight Naval Academy graduates is espe-
cially serious The aggregate cost OF
these officers for education and salaries
apprOximates $3.50 900, for which they have
rendered but little service, and at this
lower grades is short of officers. the resig
nations are rather embarrassing to the
Navy Department. Thus the construct
ors' corps, which on January l consisted
of forty members, still remains at the
same strength. and il will be utterly i'm
possible to increase 1T to seventy-five dur
ing the next six years, as contemplated
by the law of last March. 1t requires
more training to make an efficient builder
of vessels than is demanded of a junior
deck officer.
Slowly but surely business principles
displace antiQuated and irrational meth
DDS in the Navy Department The latest
Improvement in that direction is contem-
plated in the extinction of the so-called
Bureau of Equipment. the usefulness of
which ceased with the advent of the
steam navy. At the present time there are
eight bureaus, namely: Yards ard Docks.
Equipment. Navigation. Ordnance, Con-
struction and Repair, Steam Engineering,
Supplies and Accounts and Medicine and
Surgery. The functions Of the Equip
ment, Ordnance. Construction and Steam
Engineering bureaus have never been ac-
curately defined and there has been much
contention as to which bureau should
perform certain kinds of work. Each
maintains a department IN the navy
yards with separate buildings, offices, Of
flee force workshops, etc. increasing the
expense and reducing the efficiency OF
the national dockyards. and now that the
navy yards are placed in competition with
