LAWYER LEWIS
AT WASHINGTON

A. Lewis. Jr., of the law firm of
the Sierra from a business trip to
Washington. He appeared before Con-
gress in the matter of the Hawaiian
Electric franchise which has been
favorably reported both from House
and Senate committees. Mr.. Lewis
was in Washington with Mr.. Hatch,
and reports that the latter is in New
York with the intention of remaining
some time longer. The county bill, Mr.
Lewis says, has been favorably report
ed by the Senate and House commit
tees, and he has no doubt but that it
will be passed within a short time.
''There was nothing secret about my
trip" said Mr.. Lewis at the Alexander
Young Hotel yesterday. II went to
Washington on behalf Of the Hawai-
ian Electric Co. to secure Congressional
approval Of the franchise granted by
the legislature. There was not the
slightest trouble, the bill was reported
favorably by the Senate Committee on
Thursday, and by the House Commit
tee on the Friday before the holidays.
Congress adjourned on Saturday, 50 I
completed my work just in the nick of
time. The bill was introduced In the
Senate by Senator Foraker and In the
House by Delegate Kuhio.
Senator Foraker, chairman of the
Committee on Porto Rico and Pacific
Islands. Is mighty good friend OF Ha-
wall. as Is also Mr.. Edgar l.. Hamil-
ton, chairman of the House Commit
tee on Territories.
Mr.. Hatch was in New York when
/ left Washington. and he Is to remain
there for some time on a vacation visit.
The county bill was given the unan-
imous approval of the Senate Commit
tee before l left and had been aent
back to the Senate. In the House It
had been referred to a subcommittee
which has given the law a most thor
ough and exhaustive study. The House
will undoubtedly report the bill favor
ably the first thing after Congress con-
venes. / happened to be present when

ARTIST SANDONA
WILL EXHIBIT WORK

Matteo Sandona, the well known
Italian artist, has put In his time we'll
since arriving in Honolulu. His studio
in the Alexander Young Hotel is filed
with number of portraits of well
known Honolulu people and invitations
have been issued for an exhibition Of
these in the parlors of the Young Ho-
tel on Friday, January Sth, at o'clock
in the afternoon. Some of the portraits
to be shown are of n very daring order.
But they are we'll done.
A portrait of DR.. McGrew, the grand
old man of Hawaiian annexation,
shows the aged doctor in his every day
costume. dressed in a black coat and
white vest.
A pleasing effect Is secured in sew
en-foot canvas of the Princess David
kawananakoa. This shows her to be
advancing towards one with a smiling
face and merry welcome and the
artist has caught this impression well.
AS companion picture to this there is
portrait of Prince David and another
of the baby princess, Kapiolani, show
ing the latter seated in baby's high
chair and with her chubby little hands
grasping idly the chair table.
Miss Alice Campbell is treated in
three-fourths length portrait. Miss
Campbell Is dressed in white and the

full sad expression on her face, which
Is characteristic Of her.
There are portraits OF Samuel Par
ker and Mrs, Samuel Parker Col. Sam
wears very dignifed expression and
Mrs. Parker's portrait gives clever
image Of her In black evening dress.
The late w. II. Cornwell Is also
shown. The portrait of Col. Cornwel
was made from a photograph.
Miss Rose Cunha is the subject of n
very novel picture. Her face is paint
ed over a kimono dotted with dragons.
The effect Is pleasing.
A fine picture is one of F. NJ. Bechtel,
the immigration inspector. To appre-
ciate this 1t must be seen but the artist
has got as near a likeness as IL pos

COUNCIL TO RECONSIDER
THE BILL OF Mr.. GAZETTEER
Several Of Alderman Wish to Change
Their votes-Urge Reopenins Of
the Waterworks Inquiry.

The bill for $3.50 presented by Com
missioner c. F. Gazetteer of Longview
park, and allowed by the city council
one week ago, will probably be recon
sidered at the meeting to be held this
evening Several of the aldermen who
supported it have expressed a desire
to change their vote.
The mayor and clerk have refused
to settle Mr. Gaetjer's account on adj
vice from the city attorney, who has
Informed them that the money can not
be paid out until the council desig-
mates from which fund it is to be
drawn. The ordinances are plain in
providing that there is to be no re-
enumeration attached to the position
of park commissioner for actual labor
performed during the three years that
he has had charge of Longview-for
the working of his horse on the
grounds, the housing during the win.
ter season of the tools used at the
park, and for the storing and care of
| the plants in the basement of his
home. He mentions also incidentals
such as postage. etc.
The bill has been before the council
for many months. First the mayor
and clerk were empowered to settle
| with Mr. Gaetjer, but they declined to
do so, demanding that the council stip-
ulate the amount and record Itself as
ordering payment. The majority of
the aldermen do not question the real
merit of Mr.. Gaetjer's claim, for they
| realize that he has labored diligently
at the park, and doubtless has made
sacrifices in his own business that the
grounds should have needed attention,
with as little expense to the city as
possible. but it is the moral effect and
precedent that would be established
| that they fear. To pay Mr.. GAZETTEER.
they say, would afford the same right

parks, and one of these has already

should be compensated for work that
he had performed as we'll as Mr.. Gaet-

ate its position heretofore stated. that
| there can be no harm done if there is
nothing wrong. Let the council waive
technicalities and formalities and open
up the whole question, and as far as
possible force all those who may have
any light to give to testify. This
course would remove whatever i'm

public mind as to a disposition to
