GINSENG WAS
UNDERVALUED
AGAINST CHINESE
WHO IMPORTED SOME OF HIS
NATIONAL MEDICINE ROOT.

Suit has been brought i'm the federal
court against vi Chung Kun, on ac-
count of alleged fraud i'm the importa-
ton of some ginseng from China, on
the steamer Korea, on May 81 last. 1t
is alleged that the importer made a
fraudulent return of the valuation of
the drug. Ginseng root is highly valued
in China for its medicinal properties,
and Kun is said to have brought 100
pounds of it here on the Korea. He
gave its valuation as 1913 but it is al
legged that the true valuation was
$239.Oi.
On account of the alleged fraud it
is claimed that the goods are forfeited
that duty amounting to $24.3O is due,
and also one-half the value of the
goods amounting to $119.5O. The suit
is therefore for total of SAB. so, and
it is claimed that the goods are for
feited.

AUCKLAND IS
IN CONTEMPT
DID NOT RESPOND TO A KAUAI
SUBPOENA BECAUSE GOVERNOR
JACK NEEDED HIM. 3

c. r. auckland did not go to Kauai
nealii, charged with uttering forged
nomination papers. No reply to the
acting governors wireless asking that
the matter be postponed, as auckland
could not be spared, was received UNI
til late i'm the afternoon, and Buck
land was preparing to take the steam
er for Kauai when the message finally
came. 1t announced that efforts would
be made this morning to have the
case postponed. auckland ceased pack
ing his valise and stayed at home.
The matter came up before Judge
Hardy this morning, when it was up to
him, either to grant a postponement
or to declare Buckland in contempt
ana get the high sheriff after him.
auckland has clearly disobeyed a sub
poena of the court, and it remains to
be seen what the court will do. Buck
lands action was on the advice OF
the acting governor, who declared that
auckland could not be spared from
the office this week, owing to the short
ness of the Office force and the extra
duties imposed upon him by the COM
ing of the Taft party.
Judge Hardy can cite auckland for
contempt if he wants to- but when it
comes to punishment, the acting gov
ernOr would have say for he could
issue a pardon if Buckland should be
sentenced to fine or Imprisonment.
auckland is therefore not worrying at
all about going to Jail, and holds him
self ready to go to Kauai and enter
the clutches of the circuit judge as
soon as the executive department can
spare him.

WILL WATCH
SUPERVISORS
OF COMMERCE WILL
KEEP IT'S EYE ON THE DOING5
OF THE COUNTY SOLoNs.

The Chamber of Commerce has it's
eagle eye on the Board of Supervisors,
hence it behooves the Board of Super
visors to mind itself.
The matter came up at this morn
ings meeting of the Chamber when
Fred ]. Lowrey suggested that the
committee on legislation should keep
tab on the Oahu Supervisors.
Yes, 1 think that is So" remarked
Chairman e. D. Tenney informally
THAT is certainly part of the duty
Of the committee and J. F. Morgan
who is chairman, will certainly attend
to it,"
J. F. Morgan assured the chamber
that he would be delighted.
There was a small attendance at the
meeting of the Chamber this morning
those present being e. d. Tenney in
the chair; e. l. Spalding, ]. F. Nor
man, F. M. Swanzy w. LAM. W..
Pfotenhauer, Fred j. LOwrey and Sec
rotary j. G. Spencer.
The secretary read an important let
ter which had been sent to Surgeon
General Wyman in which it was re-
commended that a local architect be
engaged to plan the buildings for the
new Federal station at Molokai and
that local contractors be given chance
to bid on their construction.
The report of E. M. Boyd secretary of
the Promotion Committee concerning
his recent trip east was adopted.
Chairman Tenney drew attention to
the fact that c. L. Wight who was the
Chambers representative on the Pro-
motion Committee had resigned from
the Chamber, so on motion he was
authorized to appoint a new represent
tative.
A letter from the Merchants Assoc
citation of New York suggesting that
cooperation be given towards i'm
pressing on Congress the necessity of
concluding reciprocity tariffs with the
European nations now intent upon
putting up high tariffs met with no
enthusiastic reception.
In view of the experience we have
had with Cuban reciprocity in sugar"
said chairman Tenney Il don't think
we could endorse a reciprocity which
included European beet sugar"
This view seemed to meet the gem
eral idea and no action was taken on
the matter.
1t was decided that the annual meet
| ing of the Chamber shall be held on
August 16 next at 1920 Il. m.
The expenses of the Taft reception
/ were considered. The gross eXpendi-
| ture having been estimated at $3.50 and
the Builders and Traders having SUD-
scribed $50; the Chamber puts itself
down for $3.50 and the Merchants As
sociation will be looked to for the re-
naming $3.50.

PLENTY OF WATER
Continued from page one)

hree questions regarding the Nuuanu
reservoir. The first two embrace the
same matter, that of the available sup
ply of the Nuuanu valley. That matter
has been gone into most carefully and
the records of the rainfall for every
year since 1890 have been utilized"
Here superintendent Holloway pro-
duced a chart which however unintel-
ligibe to the layman, with its angles
and diagnosis showed conclusively
enough to the engineer that the rainfall
will be sufficient to keep the reservoir
serviceable at all times.
The Nuuanu reservoir when com
pleted will supply 100000 gallons
day" he said "and when it is once full
we will be able to keep this up. Yes,
there are times when the supply will be
much less than at other times, of
course, and then we will be able to
draw on the contents of the reservoir.
THE other question as to whether ex-
perts have been called in to figure on
the relative cost of reservoir and pump
ing systems can be answered best by
the simple affirmative. Besides, the
legislature has authorized the expendi-
ture and this should reassure the public
that the work has not been plunged in
to aimlessly. The cost of running the
pumping plants is approximately $780,
600 a year, or per cent on nearly $780,
OOO The total cost of the pipe line and
reservoir will be 100000 and this will
supply rs per cent of the demand for
water. Then of course the maintenance
of the reservoir system will be much
less than that Of the pumping station.
I Taxpayer suggests too that if a
private party should receive the fran
chise to supply water to the city they
would use pumps if they had to guar
antee continuous supply. It might in
terest him in this connection to see the
records of the attempts made by GER
tain private parties to secure control of
this very property,
Another matter which must not be
overlooked in this Nuuanu reservoir
business is that we will develop 600
horse power which can be used for run
ming the sewer pumps and for electric
lighting. We will develop this in break
ing the pressure between the upper and
the lower reservoirs. This power could
and in fact will be used for the sewer
work during the day time and for the
lights at night. At present we have
210 arc lamps about the city and of
these 75are supplied by the Hawaiian
Electric Company at considerable cost.
With the power which will be develop,
ed, as a side issue. it would be possible
to provide for 500 arc lights
Superintendent Holloway, in closing,
reiterated his invitation to any inter-
ested persons to call and inspect the
data on which is based the certainty
that there will be ample supply for the
new reservoir and also to look over thu
work as planned.

.SCHWERIN ASKS
GOVERNMENT AID
ANXIOUS TO HAVE RESTRICTIONS
PLACED ON CERTAIN GOODS
HANDLED BY PANAMA ROAD.

WASHINGTON, June 17.-R. p.
Schwerin of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company has asked Secretary Taft to
make an important restriction of mer-
chandise shipped to Colon for delivery
via the Panama Railroad at Panama,
thence to be transshipped to Central
American, Mexico and the Pacific coast
of the United States.
Schwerin desires that such merchan-
disc be handled on the Panama Rail-
way only on condition that it is trans
shipped in American bottoms to the
points named. He makes his plea on
the ground that American steamships
cannot compete with foreign ships in
this trade because of the high cost of
American labor and supplies, American
steamships being now without any
governmental assistance or subsidy to
equalize the disadvantage. He stated
that it cost $4,000 more to operate an
American than a foreign steamship of
large size.
Schwerin's request does not apply to
merchandise to be shipped from Pan
anna to South America. 1t refers only
to shipments northward from that
point.
The request has not yet been grant
ed. 1t is considered a most vital ques-
ton by Taft, who will take it up with
the President. The monopoly which
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
at present enjoys as to shipments from
/ the Panama Railroad to Pacific ports
will be broken up on July 16 by the
abrogation of it's contract with the
/ Panama Railroad. Thereafter there
will be no obstacle save legitimate
competition to prevent any other
steamship line from cutting into the
! business now almost completely con
! trolled by the Pacific Mail Company.
