FOR REFORMS
AT MOLOKAl

The Board of Health will have a
number of interesting features to con-
slider in it's Mookai investigation.
President Cooper in his reports to the
Board on Wednesday which resulted in
the determination to send special
committee to investigate made several
recommendations as well.
DIR. Cooper said in his statement that
there are complaints regarding the PAL
al and only one person acknowledged
his supply to be sufficient. He rec
ommends a thorough examination of
the existing ration schedule and more
equable division for the white patients
who are compelled now to buy supplies.
II was more and more impressed"
said DIR. Cooper, with the opportunity
that presents itself to a scientist of
high order for original research in find
ing a cure for this dreaded disease.
DR.. Goodhue should have an assistant
as his time is too fully occupied in the
general routine to do much original
work.
DIR. Cooper said he had talked with
many regarding the Goto treatment
and that a Mr.. Pierce, grandson of a
former minister to Hawaii, had said
the remedy had vast palliative effects.
Continuing President Cooper said:
"As these medicines are of a propri-
etory nature, formulate unknown and re-
fused a former Board and not one case
of cure being On record after all the
years the remedy has been given full
trial, induces me to believe the matter
should be weighed we'll before mourning
the expense with the result of only
palliative effects.

BEARDSLEE GETS
PART OF his Cash

Mail Special to the Advertiser.1
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 2S.-
BY this mail or the one leaving here
Monday, two days hence, draft will
be sent to +. w. Beardslee, at Homo
lulu, for $40, 50334 on a debt the gov
eminent is owing to him, amounting to
$12,31O. This is for his work done
eighteen months and more ago in erect
ing wooden buildings on Quarantine
Island near Honolulu. Behind it all is
a story, for the work, performed to the
complete satisfaction of the govern
ment was on spot cash" contract.
Inattention to duty on the part of GER
tain Treasury officials is in large meas
ure responsible for the injustice to Mr..
Beardslee. An appealing letter written
by Mr.. Beardslee last June, some ten
months ago, was never even acknowl-
edged.
Last Monday, less than week ago,
Mr.. William Haywood was asked to
take up the matter and he has been
going at the Treasury Department
hammer and tongs. The result was
rat early this afternoon the warran,
L. favor pf Nh. Bearlsiee had been
made out for $40, 5O3.34 and the expecta-
ton was that it would be ready for
the mail leaving this evening. It was
supposed that the entire sum would be
paid, but because of the long delay in
payment, it was found at the last mo-
ment that most of the appropriation
available for such work had been used.

NOT INSANE
BUT DRUNK
Supt. Galbraith Says In
sane Asylum Is
Crowded.

DR.. w. ]. Galbraith, acting super
intendent of the Insane Asylum. made
rather sensational report to the
! Board of Health yesterday regarding
that institution. He said:
THE fact that nearly double the
number of commitments have been
made during the last month than dur
ing any other month In the history of
the institution, demonstrates the i'm
perative necessity of additional accom-
modations as every bed Is occupied and
many of the rooms contain two pa
tients. / attribute the unusual number
of commitments due more to the
faulty method of commitment and
hard times than to any increase OF
insanity as might be inferred. Patients
have been committed during my short
service, as insane, who might have
been spared the humiliation IL reason
able efforts of an insane commission
had been exercised, and twenty-four
hours time had been given to sober up
in.
There are several cases in the in
stitution at the present time who in my
Judgment could with propriety be
transferred to the Hospital for Incur
ables Some effort should be exercised
in preventing this institution from be-
coming the dumping ground from all
parts of the world of feeble minded and
insane subjects"
DR.. Galbraith says his first act of
reform was to provide additional fire |
protection. He Gays the health of the |
patients is remarkably good. Sanitary |

FATHER BAILEY
JOINS MAJORITY

News was received yesterday of the
death in Alhambra, California, of
Father Bailey, one of the early mission
aries to Hawaii. Father Edward Bal
ley celebrated his seth birthday on
February "a, 1903, and at that time he
was enjoying his usual good health.
He was born at Holden, Mass, in
1914. and with band of missionaries
arrived at Honolulu April 8, 1887. He
was stationed at Kohala, remaining
there until 1910, when he removed to
Lahainaluna, where he was teacher.
He was connected with the Wailuku
Female Seminary from 1s41 to 1S49 and
after that was engaged in teaching and
the culture of sugar.
In 1885 he removed to California and
has resided there ever since. with one
or two trips to Hawaii. He married
Caroline Hubbard on November 2S.
1895 She died at Oakland. Cal. on
June II. 1894. They had five children.
their sons being well known Hawaiians.

BALKS At
TWO FARES
Judge Dickey Sues
the Rapid
Transit.

Judge Lyle Dickey wants to ride all
over the Rapid Transit system for one
fare, or five cents, and to that end has
filed suit in the Second District
Court, of which he is a magistrate,
claiming 500 damages because the con-
ductor of car demanded of him an
extra nickel when he changed from the
King street line, running from Fort
street. toward Waikiki. to a Punahou-
bound car which he boarded at the
intersection of King and McCully
streets.
If the Judge should be lucky enough
to win his suit he can get on car
at Kalihi, ride out along King street
to McCully street. transfer there to the
Wilder avenue Hotel street line, ride
back to it's junction with the King
street line at the foot of Liliha street,
transfer there to the east bound King
street car, ride out to the corner of
McCully street and there start all over
again by getting second transfer to
the Wilder avenue line. This would
enable the Judge to smile around the
for five cents. This would be cheaper
than paying office rent.
The Rapid Transit Co. at present
does not issue transfers on the line
which will give passengers double
back run. Transfers to the Punahou
line are given to east bound passen-
gers at the intersection Of Liiiha and
King streets and to passengers from
Waikiki at McCully and King streets.
Passengers for Punahou getting on
down town are supposed to get on the
Punahou line.
In his complaint Judge Dickey de-
scribes the Rapid Transit car lines and
says that on the 18th day of April, at
about 445 p. M, he got on a south
King street car at the corner of Keeau-
moku street and rode along to McCully
street
Upon reaching McCully street he left
the street car and got upon another
car and rode to the corner of
Alexander street and Wilder avenue.
He then alleges that the defendant
through two employees, the conduc-
tors of said two street cars, charged
plaintiff more than five cents for the
trip on said street cars; that upon the
first mentioned car he paid to the con-
ductor five cents and at the time ask
ed for transfer ticket which the con-
ductor refused.
The defendant company is summon
ed to appear before Judge Wilcox on
April IA at 80 .. m.
The suit Is based on Judge Dickey's
claim that the Rapid Transit franchise
compels it to give transfers at all con-
nection points.
The Rapid Transit Company does not
admit that it is required to carry a
man all day for one fare, nor to give
him a return ticket after having rid
den the whole length of the city, and
will fight the case.

"A BOGUS
AMERICAN"
DR.. MouritZ Asks If he
Is Considered
One.

| DIR. A. MouritZ, the government ply
sioian on Molokai, wants to quit If the
Board of Health finds that he is a
| bogus American" and asks that a
genuine American" be sent up on the
next steamer to take his place. Attor-
asked IL DR.. Mouritz was an American
| citizen, and an answer was submitted
at yesterdays meeting of the board.
Mouritz says he was born in England,
though his father was an American.
He said he had been recognized as such
by three American consuls, but per-
haps his connection with various gov
ernments here made him IMAM with
out country" 1t developed that gov
eminent physicians didn't have to be
American citizens, and the letters were
tabled.
LIMIT DOGS AT SETTLEMENT
The petition protesting against the
dogs in the settlement was referred to
Attorney General Andrews to draw up
a resolution limiting the number of
dogs, one to a family. DR.. Cooper said
one man there had fifteen dogs. The
petition of Alama Smith for an ava
license was denied. The action of the
president in granting permits to Sister
NJ. Helena, Sister Antonio and Maria
Becky Poai to go to the settlement was
approved.
The request of d. S. Bowman, san
itary inspector for Hilo, for $40 a
month for horse hire was denied.
The report of the committee on Ma
lulani Hospital trustees vas adopted.
The committee recommended that a
request for the resignation OF the pres
ent trustees, because they are govern
ment employees, be made. DIR. ]. H.
Raymond, c. B. Wells, and S. e. Kaiue
We're appointed trustees.
President Cooper stated that new
tenders for paai for the settlement
would have to be called for in case the
allowance was increased to % pounds
a week.
The appointment of DR.. c. L. Stow as
fish and poi inspector at Hilo was con-
firmed
The City Sanitary officer reported on
health improvements in Honolulu as
follows:
Five hundred and seventy-three !
dollars was subscribed by property |
owners and the government sewer from
River street to Nuuanu street in ku-
kui street has been laid and the ma
jority of the places are already con-

claimed that as long as 1t had not been
announced the motion was proper.
Senator Paris, who was in the chair in
the absence of Crabbe, ruled otherwise,
and the vote was announced to s,
veto sustained.
Senator Achi then moved a reconsd-
GRAFTON, which Dickey claimed was not
proper, as Achi had not voted with the
majority
After several matters INTERVIEWED
which gave some Senators a chance to
reason with Kaohi Achi again moved a
reconsideration. The motion carried on
n show of hands, Dickey, Wilcox and
Baldwin voting no.
The roll was called again and the
vote resulted the same as before with
two changes, Kaohi and Paris voting
yes" in n hesltating manner. The bill
was announced as carried then, by
vote of IL to 8.
CLAIMS IT is ILLEGAL.
Senator Dickey again rose to a point
of order and characterized the action
of the Senate as Illegal. He said that
Ach voted yes on the hill. and on a
two-thirds vote the winning side is In
the majority. He, therefore, could not
move a reconsideration.
II believe the point IL well taken"
said Paris, but it should have been
presented before. Go on" Ito the clerk).
This ended the discussion, though
there was considerable after talk over
the legality and illegality of the action.
