PACIFIC HEIGHTS
RAILWAY DISPUTE

fight Is on to prevent the con-
firmation of the commissioners sale
of Pacific Heights Railway Co.'S proper
ty. Commissioner NJ. T. Simonton hav-
ing filed his report, showing a sale at
auction of the property with the ex-
ception of the cable. w. o. Smith,
trustee for the bondholders, and c. S.
Desky, who promoted and controlled
the company, entered protest against
having the sale confirmed
c. G. Ballentyne was the purchaser
of the bulk of the property-the cable
having been reserved on account of
litigation over it and steam condenser
sold separately-his bid being $1,000.
Judge Robinson began a hearing on
the commissioners report at noon yes
terday. w. o. Smith called A. Gartley,
manager of the Hawaiian Electric Co.,
who testified he had examined the
property on the previous day, making
memoranda of values of different parts.
The total of his appraisement was
$S767, but this took no account of two
and half miles of rails. There is the
right of way besides, for which Mr..
Desky paid $500.
ID. L. Wilmington appeared for con-
firmation-at least he did some object
ing to the evidence. L. Tenney Peck,
president, and c. G. Ballentyne, man.
ager, of the Honolulu Rapid Transit
& Land Co., which was a party in the
foreclosure proceedings as claiming the
cable. were present in court.
The hearing was continued until to-
morrow at p. m. Mr.. Ballentyne, on
the day of the sale, contradicted a
statement that he bought the property
for the Rapid Transit Co. To anybody
who can use or dispose of the property
for its original purposes to advantage,
1t is worth from $4,000 to $4,000, but to
any other It must be reckoned as old
junk. Mr.. Gartley's valuation of some
items, indeed. was made on the basis
of old iron.

READY FOR
LEGISLATURE
Officials at the Capital
Are Getting Things
in Trim.

The Capitol building has been trans
formed into a place for the meeting
of the Legislature. That is, the Sec
retary's room has been made over for
the use of the Senate, and the Throne
room is being put in order for the as
sembling of the house on Wednesday
morning. In the Senate Chamber, the
fourteen desks and the Presidents
chair are arranged precisely as they
were two years ago, and the clerks and
stenographers have their old places.
The President of the Senate will have
the Secretarys little porch room in the
corner for a retiring room, and it will
be used likewise as a committee room.
The clerks and stenographers will be
'cooped up, even as they were two years
ago.
room will also be in all essential re-
spects as it was before. The heads of
were at work on Sunday, putting the
finishing touches on their reports to
the legislature, and the Governors
message has been to all practical in
tents and purposes completed. 1t will
be transmitted to the two houses as
soon as the Governor is notified, Off
cially, that they are in session and
ready to receive. 1t Is a longer docu-
ment, it is said, than any, Governor
has heretofore sent in, and covers
about all the subject matters of public
interest that have come up for the
Governors consideration in the past
two years-and many that are expect
ed to come up within the next two.
A second executive document will be
the Governors financial estimates of
the needs of the several departments
of the government. This will be par
ticular interest, because If there is any
county legislation, then there must of
necessity be revision of the estimates
and division of the available money
between the Territorial government
and the proposed counties. 1t is at
this point that the work of the Ac-
counts Commission will come before
the legislature. But little has been
heard of the Accounts Commission
lately, but 1t is understood that the
Commissioners have been hard at
work, and that its estimates will be
ready for consideration when the legis-
lature Is ready to take the matter up.

fortress and were granted parole by
the Japanese, passed through Honolu-

to st. Petersburg, via San Francisco,
New York. London and Paris. The
officers were the cynosure of all eyes
while in Honolulu, as they were the
first of the Cars sea-fighters to visit
Honolulu since the fall of Port Arthur.
Those who have read that the Cars
fighting men are big, husky fellows
were disappointed in the appearance
of these officers. Physically they were
not impressive. Among them were Of

the first vessel to feel the impact of

was saved from possible death on the
Novik by having had an early transfer

The officers on arrival at Honolulu
called upon Mons. A. Vizzavona, the
French Consul, not understanding at
the time that there was a Russian Con-
sui in the city. Mons. Vizzavona d.

the Siberia speak in the highest terms

HANFORD FAVORS
CASE OF kid" WHITE

II Friday were not the last day on
which the show is to be given.
The claim that the production Is a
theater attraction Is 50 palpably fic-
iitious that IL Is not worthy OF con-
sideration. In allowing the produce
ton TO be given under the Grand
opera house license. the city officials
have tolerated rank steal-noth-
ing more OF less.
The Barnum q Bailey circus,
which provided 10 times as much
amusement for one-thlrd o. the
price charged by the North Seattle
exhibition. paid $500 day for the
privilege Of coming here and many
citizens do not think that was
enough. Pains spectacle does not
pay cent The circuses may try TO
work the same gag next year. and
exhibit under the Grand opera house
license.
Tho managers OF PAINS spectacle
must be commended. however. for
their far-slghtedness and skin in
buucoing the city officials. and Man
ager John Cort must be equally
commended for his generosity in
lending them his theater license.
But OF course there was no bin on
at the Grand this week and Cort
could probably afford 10 lend out
his 6-dollar-a-month theater Ii
rense for a while.
