COMMITTEE FAVORS
PUBLIC PARK Bill
Tantalus Only AT Present
Available For
Purpose
WAIKIKI LOTS SHOULD
BE DECLARED PARKS
NOW HELD UNDER
LEASES BUT THESE SHOULD
NOT BE RENEWED.
TO BE SET ASIDE,

The Judiciary Committee of the Sen
ate this morning reported on Senator
Bishops Park Bill in part as follows:
The object Of the bill is a good one
AZ 1t proposes to set apart the unsold
portion Of Tantalus, the top of Punch
bowl Hill and the Government lots a,
Waikiki as public parks.
The only park which will be imme
diately available is Tantalus as there
are leaseholds on the larger part OF
Punchbowl and the Waikiki lots, the
former expiring In six years and the
latter In 10 years. We think. however,
that 1t is well to take time by the
forelock and declare these public parks
so that the leases will not be renewed
or the land sold when the leases ex.
pire.
Tantalus with few walks through
the dense jungle will De q delightful
place for an outing for those who like
the wildwood.
Punchbowl is an easily accessible
place where those who do not care for
mountain climbing can obtain charm.
ing views. II its sides were covered
with Algaroba trees, and the crater
laid out in walks, and beautiful. IL
VIII make delightful breathing place
for Honolulu.
AT present there Is no government
land at Waikiki on which the public
may go to get to the beach, All the
private parties own the balance of the
beach. There shall be connection be-
tween kapiolani Park and the sea and
this bill provides such a connection
by declaring the IA lots now under
lease to be public parks. When the
leaseholds expire this area will add
greatly to the attractions of Kapiolani
Park.
Your committee recommends the
tracts Of land hereinafter described ara
hereby declared to be public parks:
!. The park of Tantalus as describ.
cd in the bill includes all of the Tan.
talus Heights above a line drawn across
from near the Thurston residence to a
point on Manoa Valley above the Cas-.
tie lot. This has been thought by
many to include too much and that
more land should be left for the gov
eminent to dispose of to persons want
Ing mountain houses. Your Commit
tee therefore recommends:
That certain tracts situated on Tan.
talus Heights bounded on the north by
kalawahine. on the east by Manoa Val.
ley and on the southwest and south by
the present Tantalus road and the
premises Of Harrison. excepting such
portions Of same as are now the prom.
erty Of private parties.
The park of Punchbowl as in the
bill includes all the unsold land above
Prospect street and its proposed ex
tensions. 1t seems to be the general
opinion that this takes in too much
land, 1874 acres, and that 1t would DO
well to reserve enough land ON the

row Of residences. Your Committee
has had new survey made. meeting
this point including in the park all the
crater and rim and about 200 feet OF
the outer slope. AS now proposed
the park will contain 1Ol 2.lO acres.
This is followed by a technical do,
scription by metes and bounds of tho
land proposed to be set aside.
The committee also recommends
that the following land be set aside:
THAT certain tract of land at Wal.
kiki known as lots 100. 121, 1872, 123,
ia, 125, 1876, 127 and 1913 and bounded

WARRANT ISSUED FOR
ARREST
Of JAS. Fullerton

The first result Of Attorney General
Ahure"s campaign on the alleged
userers Of this city, became evident
this afternoon when Andrews issued n
warrant against James Il. Fullerton
charging him with extortion. The AT.
torney General personally took the
warrant to the Police Station at about
1870 y. m. and was closeted with
sherin Henry for considerable space
OF time. The warrant was delivered
10 senior Captain Parker for service.
Fullerton Is charged with extortion
OF money from Thomas Everett Rich
ardson. 1t seems that Richardson
some time ago borrowed SIS from Full.
lerton and that he since has been
charged the most exorbitant interest
on this amount. Richardson states
that he made no agreement regarding
the rate Of interest to be charged. but
that he had previously borrowed sum
from Fullerton and an associate and
was charged 10 per cent month. He
expects he was charged at the same
rate on the last loan.
Inc matter is attracting considera-
