After the conference Secretary Geo.
r. Carter gave a general account ot
the proceedings TO an Advertiser re-
/ porter.
TRY NEW YORK.
Mr.. Carter said the consensus Of
opinion seemed to be that an attempt
should be made to float the bonds in
New York.
1t was better to try New York in the
fan OF the year. At different times in
the year. the bankers said. thew had
funds at their disposal which they
would like to put into Government
bonds. but when II came round TO the
fall OF the year and money became
tighter they wanted securities which
they could dispose of quickly.
II a market were established in New
York and they could sell those bonds
again they would not be afraid to take
them. But under present conditions
\ 1f they should take Territorial bonds
Itk later want to dispose of thenl-
there being no market in New York
and nobody there knowing anythin
about them-they would not answer
e~he purposes OF the local banks.
tAfter establishing a market in f'ew
-fork. il the Government wished to
foat a few bonds here. the bankers
would be willing to take them SO tket
some public improvements could be
Carried out. Then. when 1t suited them.
they could send the bonds to New
York themselves and turn them into
ready money
MR.. DAMONS WE'VE
Mr.. Damon stated. as his experience
with Government loans in the past
that # was very difficult to dispose OF
bonds. They were liable to be pigeon
holed. TO be put of for other things

had been made for the past three years
under any loan In view of Z = short

Valuable time was being wasted. Mr..
Damon held. and he thought someone

RESTRICTIVE CLAUSE.

The restriction in question is cor
tained in Section 55 of the Organic
Act, which says regarding the issue
of loan bonds by this Territory: Nor
shall any bond or other instrument Of
any such indebtedness be issued IN
less made redeemable in not more than
five years and payable in not more
than fifteen years from the date Of
the issue thereof

at that department apd see that tne
matter was not side-tracked.
Then, whenever the Presidents ac-
ton was known, the Territory's repre-
sentative should proceed at once TO
New York and submit the question Of
legality OF the bonds to some prom
inent attorney.
NEW YORK AGENCY.
The next step would be to secure an
agency for the business and call for
bids. both in New York and here.
Meanwhile have the bonds printed
and in the hands of the New York
agent ready for delivery on the ac-
ceptance of satisfactory bids. It would
not be necessary. however, for the rep
resentative to stay in New York until
the bids were opened. but merely long
enough to attend to the preliminary
work.
AID VOLUNTEERED.
The greatest difficulty with the whole
question, Secretary Carter said. was to
provide ways and means for the iii
tiaI expenses. Messrs. Irwin and
Cooke. for their banks. offered at the
meeting to advance their pro rata for
whatever expenses there might be and
look to the next Legislature to reim-
burse them. 1t was hoped that the
other banks would be willing to ioin
in this, so as to make the slightest
possible draft on each.
FUNDAMENTAL DRAWBACK.
One of the drawbacks to placing :he
bonds is the shortness of their lie un-
der the restrictions of the Organic Act.
Some of the bankers thought the dura-
ton of the bonds was not sufficient to
have them easily placed. Yet even II
the restriction proved to have the in
furious effect feared. it would be n
strong argument to go before Congress
with and ask for a removal OF that
restriction. rIt would be well to show"
Mr.. Carter said, that We had made a
strenuous attempt to sell the bonds in
New York and only failed on that ac-
count"

WHARVES SMELL. OF
DECAYED MATTER

The picayune treatment by the leg
islature of several items of expense in
the Public Works Department has had
its result already on the Oceanic
Steamship dock. where decayed vege-
table matter thrown out by steamers
and sailing ships lying alongside has
rotted and spread odors about, because
there is no one to sweep the refuse
away. AS long as the wharves have
been there gang of men has been
employed by the Public Works Depart
ment to keep them clean, because they
are government property. Since May
there have been no laborers to clean
the Oceanic dock, and manure has
necessarily been scattered over many
places which w-re over-offensive, end
in other places, chair has been spread.
Captain Clark, superintendent of the
wharf, was making an effort 20 have
the debris cleared uD yesterday about
the time the Ale.meda came into port.
The reason for the non-appearance Of
the eeping-lab0rers is that there is
no appropriation from which the labor
ers can be paid.

been made had the bark not encoun-

RESTORED THEIR
CIVIL RIGHTS

Senator Palmer P. woods has been
apprised of the granting of pardons and
restoration to civil rights by Governor
Dole of four of his men.
In 1897 seven of the employees of the
Woods ranches were arrested on
charges of larceny in the second de-
gree, convicted and their appeals to
the circuit court resulted in the affirm
ing of the verdict OF $50 and costs.
In the cases of four of these men,
Samuel Awaa, Akau. Kane Pika and

are known to him and which seem am

| no calling out, no excitement among
| them. Every man had his station and
| nobody got into anybody elses way
The machines careened along Beretania
street to Alakea and dashed along that
thoroughfare until they came to the
group of legislators who stood at Box
"a with Fire Commissioners Brown and
High Sheriff Brown, many with watch
es in hand. 1t was a speedy run and
demonstrated that if there had been a
fire just discovered at the Pacific Mail
wharf it would not have gained much
Roadway before the firemen were on
the scene.
In seven minutes the machines from
the Palama station had arrived at
headquarters, and there waited for fur
Their orders from the chief. In about
two minutes more the Makiki machines
were on hand at headquarters when
the general alarm sounded. Then of
dashed these machines to reinforce the
headquarters brigade.
One or two legislators kept the time
at headquarters. Others were asked
why they did not also keep the time.
Why said one, they came so fast
that 1 forgot to do it, That was quite
true. The same result would have OBJ
tanned had the alarm been turned in
from a remote part of the city. The
legislators say that it was good thing.
and there were many expressions OF
good will toward a system which could
provide the means of protecting homes
in far away parts of the city.
1t is, of course, a good thing TO
train and to show of the fire depart
ment. The whole city is proud of that
Also, it is good thing to instruct the
legislature. 1t is an especially good
thing to instruct the legislature. There
is an aching void, there, and even
small attempt to fill il, even partially,
is to be appreciated. But it would
seem to have been not an especially
discreet thing to choose the PACING
Mail dock on steamer night as the
place for the lession. The steamer Pc
king lay at that wharf, with steam
up. and it was almost the hour of her
sailing when the fire alarm for the
benefit of the legislature was turned in
last night. The passengers of
through steamer always linger UP town
to the last minute, and when the Pc
kings passengers. alarmed by the hre
bell. reached her dock last night they |
found the police there to keep them out |
and the whole place a confusion of |
noises. Naturally the passengers
thought, for a moment, that the ship |
was on fire, and naturally there was /
something of panic among them The
