MAY DELAY
CANAL WORK
Funds Provided by Congress
Insufficient
TO CARRY WORK FAR.
Only $lo.ooo,ooo Was Appropriated for

TO CARRY WORK FAR.

Washington, April Owing to an
oversight on the part of Congress in not
reducing the tax on circulating notes
of the national banks based on Panama
Canal bonds the Secretary of the Treas
Inry will make no attempt to sell these
bonds until Congress acts, and there is
a strong possibility that the work of
constructing the canal may be delayed
by lack of funds, as che secretary is of
the opinion that the loan could not be
iloated on account Of the handicap of
an extra half per cent tax involved
When Congress authorized the construc-
ton of the canal it appropriated $l0,-
100000 to be used in construction work,
and authorized the Secretary of the
Treasury to sell bonds to the amount
of $4,000, 900, as the funds were need
ed to continue the work on the great
waterway. Three millions of the ten
millions have been expended. At pres
emit the expenditures on the canal
amount to about 100000 month, but
almost Immediately the new Canal Com
mission win begin to push the work,
and the monthly expenditures may go
F, far above the million mark. AT that
rate, the funds now on hand will last
only until Oct. 81. At the meeting Of
| the Canal Commissioners it was decided
that all pending matters in the way Of
contracts, etc, shall be pushed to con-
clusion at once, and that to this end
daily meetings of the Commission viii
be held for the next week or two

RocKLAND TO FIGHT IT.
Retains Counsel in Case of Liquor Agen-
cY Seizure.


Roekland, Me-, April 7.-The manag-
ers of two leading wholesale grocery
stores, one of which is owned by Gov.
Cobb and partners, and City Liquor
Agent L. III. Clark were notified by the
county authorities to appear in court
Yesterday afternoon to answer charges
of violating the prohibitory liquor law.
The stores were raided Wednesday by
Sheriff Tolman and deputies, who seized
a quantity of patent medicines said to
contain large percentage of alcohol.
The city agency was entered about
the same time by the officers ard five
wagon loads Of liquor valued at $4,000
were removed.
The city of Rockland has decided to
oppose the action of the sheriff and
his men and has retained Congressman
Charles II. Littlefeld and State Repre-
sentative Arthur S. Littleield to appear
for it in court. The city officials claim
to be in ignorance of the process by
which the city liquor was seized. 1t
has been suggested that the liquor was
rot marked with the name of the agent,
as required by law, but the city officials
claim that ii this omission was made
in conducting the agency the violation
was purely a technical one.
After the seizure Wednesday the city
ordered new stock of liquors for the
agency, but yesterday it was decided
10 cancel the order pending the outcome
of the court proceedings.

Burlington's Municipal Lighting Plant

Burlington, April THE machinery
in the power house Of Burlngton's new
municipal lighting plant was started up
yesterday and everything went smooth
ly. The opening Of the plant and the
lighting Of the street by the city's own
electricity is now only retarded by the
absence of wires. The business of the
erection of poles and stringing Of the
wires is going ahead very rapidly, how
ever, and viii be completed before long.
About s or nine miles Of wire have al
ready been strung and additional gangs
are to be put to work today or tomor-
row. 1t is impossible to predict inst
at present when the city will have its
own electricity. The contractors, Bell
man & Sanford, viii operate the plant

Tobacco
IS A Great
SUCCESS
SECRETARY ATKINSON RETURNS
FROM A QUICK TRIP AROUND
HAWAII ISLAND.

Secretary Atkinson returned today
after a flying trip around Hawaii, which
followed close upon his trip on Kauai
On Kauai he went over the land
which McBryde has offered for settle
ment, as well as other lands, returning
in time to catch the last Mauna Loa on
the day of his return.
"My visit to look over the lands, to
become as familiar as possible with
them" he said, "in view of the policy
of being liberal in the matter of open
ing them to settlers. 1 want to gain all
the Information 1 can, and have gained
much by the trip.
''The success Of the tobacco expert
ment on Hawaii is very striking. 1 was
surprised at it. 1t demonstrates far
more than 1 had thought that tobacco
will grow splendjdly here. All that is
needed is q bit Of capital and energy
and I belie~e there is money in it,"
With Atkinson were Mr.. and Mrs. L.
A. Thurston, Jared G. Smith, Captain
and Miss Demans and Forester Hos
mer during a part of the journey. The
party landed at Kailua and drove
through Kona, taking the steamer
again at Hookena and driving overland
to the volcano house. Olaa and Hilo
were covered and the other side of HiTo
as far as Waimea. The Kinau was
caught at Kawaihae.

DOGS
IMPORTED
FROM B. C.
AND THEY NEARLY GET THE
AORANGI IN TROUBLE AS THEY
HAD FAILED TO REGISTER.

They were just two dogs but they
caused deal of trouble when their
proud new owners tried to land them
from the Canadian liner Aorangi this
morning. They were both classy"
dogs, thoroughbreds from Victoria B.
c., the first a setter pup for Bradshaw
Brown and the other a fox terrier for
N. Patton.
The trouble about the dogs was that
they were by some inadvertance, left
off the ships manifest, for although
they were of the best breeding that
British Columbia can produce, they had
not been trained sufficiently to register
when they went aboard.
DR.. Norgaard, the Territorial veteri-
marian, was notified that alien dogs
were contemplating a landing and was
on hand to inspect the CANNES. He
made a thorough examination and gave
both a clean bill of health, but this
did not satisfy the Customs people as
to why the dogs, as far as the ships
books went, had slowed away.
The owners were able to show cor
respondence which made matters
smooth and Honolulu's canine popula-
ton has consequently been enriched
by two new comers of faultless an
cestry

OF THE SMALL FISH.

The fish brought here to eat mos.
quito larvae are prospering in several
different ponds about the islands and
at the rate which they breed there will
soon be millions of them looking for
young mosquitoes. Alvin Scale of the
United States Bureau of Fish, who
brought them here, and d. l.. Van
Dine of the local federal agricultural
experiment station, have been feeding
the little fish by way of testing their
appetites for mosquitoes.
"They swarmed up like chickens run
ming to be fed and gobble up the mos
quito larvae as fast as we threw them
any" said Scale.
"The fish have been in the waters
here since the 18th and they are doing
well, so that it is safe to say that the
water and climate suit them. l was
glad to observe that they are breed
ing. They lay about 500 eggs at a
time, so that the number multiples
very fast"
The fish are known as top minnows,
and were secured in the vicinity Of
Galveston, Texas. About 500 of them
were brought and only twenty-seven
died on the journey or twelve days.
This was result of careful expert
menting before the start was made SO
that the right kind of water could be
supplied. Scale had them in 10 gall
Ion milk cans, about rs in each, and
changed the water every one of the
twelve days from Galveston to Homo
lulu, keeping them as nearly as was
possible in the same kind of water all

Home RULERS FATE
IN The BALANCE.

Many people who perspired freely in
todays humidity were under the inn
preston that it portended storm but
a few remembered that the Great Home
Rule party's convention was to come
to order an hour after noon and the
reason of the heat was at once eX-
planned.
This afternoons meeting will in all
probability settle the fate Of the Home
Rule party a political entity. The
big question to be decided is whether
the suggested scheme of remaining
fused with the Democrats shall be
adopted or not. OF course there has
been no Home Ruler, or at any rate,
none now in the ranks of the Home
Rule party avowedly, who has dared
to suggest openly that the fusion
should be a permanency but the feeling
is nevertheless general that if the De-
mocratic lion is to lie down with the
Home Rule lamb, it will not be until
the lamb has been absorbed b. the lion
and lies down inside. Notwithstand-

EXPECTED HIS SHIP
TO Be CAPTURED
CAPTAIN CURTIS OF S. S. BARRA-
CUTA WROTE TO LOCAL FRIEND
BIDDING HIM GOODBYE.

The Pacific Mail S. s Barracuda
which was reported yesterday as hav-
ing been captured by the Japanese
north Of Saghalin island, is known to
Honolulu people from the fact that her
master is very well known here. He
is Captain Curtis formerly master of
the schooner w. H. Marston.
Captain Curtis wrote to a friend in
Honolulu just before his vessel left
San Francisco. Curtis then expressed
the belief that his boat would be cap
tured and bade goodbye to his friend
here and sent farewell to others. His
premonition came true for the lynx
eyed Japanese patrols nabbed his craft
with cargo that is presumably con-
traband for Russia.

casting in their fortunes with one of
the other parties but the stalwarts,
men like Kalauokalani and Motley see
plainly the political submersion which
will follow the continuance of a fusion
and are fighting against it with all
their acknowledged power among the
native element
The hour originally set for the con-
vention was 10 this morning but for
some reason it was set back until 1,
probably because of the late arrival of
some of the delegates
Motley, the former candidate for
Delegate to Congress, was the busiest
man in the city today. He was cab
bing it about all over town button
holing this and that delegate, whisper
ing and admonishing. He seemed in
good humor and firmly of the belief
that his opinions would prevail. The
friends of fusion were not seemingly
so much in evidence but the story was
that there was a good deal of work be-
ing done quietly.
The meeting place was held in the
new Home Rule headquarters, formerly
Murray's carriage works, just makai
of Kukui street, Eva of Nuuanu.
