Secretary Atkinson's message was the
reply to an inquiry for definite inform
alton regarding the status of the loan

NEW TYPE OF HOLSTER FOR
ROUGH LANDINGS ON HAWAII
Honolulu Iron Works Completes New Model
Especially Adapted for Service On High
Buffs...Made for iionomu Landing.

The Honolulu Iron Works had a very
complete hosting engine on exhibition
at their Kakaako plant yesterday, the
same having been especially designed
and constructed at the Kakaako shops
for the Honomu (HawaiD Wire Cable
Landing.
A large number of local representa-
tives of sugar companies were present
to witness the trial of the machine and
all seemed satisfied with its working.
Although mounted on a temporary
wooden platform, from which it will
be transferred to trucks to be taken
to steamer, the engine worked in a
very satisfactory manner.
There are several of these wire-cable
landings in use between Hilo and Ooka-
la, this system being particularly well
adapted for landings on any of the
weather sides of the islands, provided
suitable height of bluff is available
But one of the defects in the salts
factory run of the system, has been
that ordinary hosting engines of stand
ard make as sold in the market by
manufacturers of this class of ma
chinery. have been used for operating
the trolleys, these hoists being entirely
inadequate for the severe strain and
The Hawaiian gazette., 1904-12-23

speed that is expected of them.
The hoist that Is now completed has
been specially built from plans origin
ating in the Iron Works office for this
particular kind of work, and has been
made on the same lines as the wind
lasses supplied by the Union Iron
Works for the Wilder's Steamship Com
pany's vessels.
The hoist has two pairs OF 10x10 cylin-
ders, each set with link motion revers-
ing gears which operate two independ-
ent winding drums. All friction gears
have been eliminated with the object
of simplifying the arrangement as
much as possible and most satisfactory
results are anticipated by the Homo
lulu Iron Works management from
this machinery.
The success of the present hosting
engine may result in orders for others
from plantations along the Hawaii coast
which require cables and trolleys to
hoist and lower freight. The rugged
coast of Hawaii between Kawaihae and
Hilo requires machinery of this sort.
Ordinary hosting engines are untitled
for heavy work at the landings and the
bills for repairs to them amount to
large sum every year.

FUShIMI HERE
ON JANUARY 8

NEW YORK, December 12.-Prince
Fushimi and his staff will leave this
city tomorrow on the New York Cen
trail for Chicago. Since the Prince
arrived in town on December LIST he
has been assiduously taking in the
sights and shaking hands with the
city's notable men. He is greatly
pleased with the reception he has had.
When the Prince came to this city
he had only about forty pieces of
baggage. He now has more than a
hundred. He has spent several thou
sand dollars in the city buying pres
ents, including many toys and knick-
knacks.
Fushimi and his party will travel
West in a special car. They will re-
main in Chicago at the Auditorium
until Friday, when the Prince will
start for San Francisco by the South
ern route, stopping for day at Den
yer and a day at Los Angeles. He
will sail from San Francisco on the
Mongolia on December 2Sth. He has
been in this country since the early

MAUI ROADS
HURRIED UP
Kaupo Republicans Are
Reassured By the
Governor.

Solid Republicans of Kaupo. Maui,
will no doubt be treasured of fair
treatment by Governor Carriers an
swer to their pious request that work
be Immediately started on the road
from Kipahulu to Kahikinui The petit
ton of citizens residing in the district
OF Kaupo, "also solid Republicans" as
it states, has twenty-one signatures.
1t was approved by the Territorial
Central Committee last Monday even
ing.
After reciting that the past Legisla~
ture voted $4,000 for repairing the road
in question the petitioners request, to
quote the English translation forward
ed, that the road be Immediately
taken up and to commence work on the
same" They represent that, in pursuit
of a living for themselves and their
families they are depending on the
trails along the sides OF the mountains
and pail, yet for the past long years
nothing has been done toward the bet
terment of their road and their pray
ers thus conclude:
And IL your Honor thinks for the
good and welfare of your fellow Re-
publicans here, then there is nothing
but right and proper that this said
amount of $4,000 be Immediately used in
order that our pilikia be sent aside, and
that God will ever guide you in your
administration. We ever pray"
THAT petition was referred to Mr..
Holloway" the Governor said to an
Advertiser reporter, who reports that
the road mentioned is one of the works
that Mr.. Howell, the department engi-
neer on Maui, is instructed to take up
at his earliest opportunity.
THE administration is doing every
thing in its power to hurry these
works. Mr.. Howell IL taking them UP
as fast as possible and the Kaupo tax
payers will have their road as soon as
the work can be reached That Is the
substance of the answer I have given
to the petition

RESERVE IS
APPROVED
Governor Agrees to
The Hamakua
Forest.

Governor Carter yesterday attended
special conference at the Board OF
Agriculture and Forestry Bureau to
go over the map of the proposed for
est reserve in the north end of Hama
kua, Island of Hawaii, and determine
upon the area approved by the Board
of Agriculture upon the recommends
ton made by the Superintendent of
Forestry, Ralph S. Hosmer. and For
ester E. f. Gliding of Kohala, Hawaii,
who is also manager of the Kohela
Sugar Company.
Present at the conference besides the
Governor were Agricultural Commits
sioners Holloway and Giffard, F. S.
Dodge of the Bishop estate, j. s. Low,
representing the Kohala Ditch Com
pany, and Superintendent of Forestry
Hosmer
The conference was held pursuant to
the published by authority of the Gov
ernor that such a meeting would be
held at 2:30 p, m. to consider the set
ting apart of the Government lands
lying between the Waipio valley and
the district of Kohala as a forest re-
serve.
The Governor declared the area a
forest reserve, there being no objec-
ton to the proposition. The regular
proclamation will be signed and pub
lished in a day or two.
The total gross area comprises 1S,945
acres, but out of that is taken 256 acres
plus an unknown acreage of the Booth
estate. The net area will be in the
neighborhood of 1900 acres.
The reservation of these Government
lands for a forest reserve is made I'M
der act "A of the Hawaiian laws, which
fully protect all the vested rights con-
trolled by the Kohala Ditch Company.
The country so reserved is practi-
cally indentical with the area which
Is under agreement with the Kohala
Ditch Company through which their
ditch will be run.
The recommendation for this forest
reserve was originally made to the
Board of Agriculture by Ralph Hos
mer, Superintendent of Forestry for the
Territory, and by Forester E. f. Old
ing of Hawaii, manager of the Kohala
Sugar Company.
