A caucus of constitutional democratic
members elect of parliament has been
called for May to formulate line of ac-
ton for the party. Discussions, however.
have appeared already, and a split Is quite
probable The most radical members favor
a plan according to which they will decline
to take the prescribed oath until the en-
peror shall have sworn fidelity to the con-
Stitution. Mr.. kedrine, 'well-known st.
Petersburg lawyer and a prominent const-
tutional democrat, believes that the oppo-
stion should Immediately demand the an
nulment of the imperial manifesto of March
8, which gave the government strong hold
on the proceedings of parliament, as being
inconsistent with the previous imperial
manifesto of October go 1868.
The more practical-minded members, like
NJ. Vinaver another constitutional demo-
cratic candidate for ST. Petersburg believe
that the first duty of the constitutional
democrats is to strengthen their position by
a coalition with The peasants, on the basis
of an equitable settlement of the agrarfan
questions.
Government to Check Congress.
The social democrats and the social
revolutionists and other proletariat or
ganizations are secretly selecting dele
gates to the big congress which it has
been planned to hold In Finland some
time this month and at which an ultimate
plan of action will be decided upon The
government is seeking, to prevent the
meeting Of the congress by all means.
The delegates are being hunted down
and arrested by the police, who last
night arrested sixty representatives of
the workmen In the factories, who were
holding a meeting at Narva, an industrial
town of $4,000 inhabitants in the govern
ment of ST. Petersburg.
The council of the empire has passed a
law providing pensions for the widows
and the children of gendarmes and police
men who have been killed by the revolu-
tionfsts. They will receive the same pen
sion rates as the widows and children of
soldiers who were killed during the war
with Japan.

REPUBLICANS
OUT FOR KUHIO
FIRST MEETING OF CAMPAIGN Is
A BIG RALLY FOR THE DELE
GATE.

The crowd at the Republican meet
ing on Saturday evening at Aala park
is estimated to have numbered about
15OO people
Delegate Kuhio received an ovation
and was heartily endorsed by all the
speakers.
On the platform with Chairman John
c. Lane and the Delegate We're A. G.
NJ. Robertson, members of the National
Committee and chairman of the Terri
torial Committee Charles Hustace, Jr.,
chairman Of the County Committees
b. Fabian secretary of the committee;
George w. Smith, chairman of the
County Board of Supervisors; e. w.
Quinn, David Kanuha, w O. Smith,
w. w. Harris, James Quinn, Kanealii,
and others
Senator Lane introduced A. G. NJ.
Robertson as the first speaker. Robert
son praised Kuhio's work and declared
for party consistency. A primary law
was needed, he said, to prevent candi-
! dates who fail to get their party'es no.
mination from running independent,
and it would prevent voters from be-
Rulers all at once. He said that the
Republicans had reason to be proud Of
their county bill, and that the voters
should leave to them the duty of
amending it to make it more perfect.
| Robertson also mentioned the exodus
of citizens from the territory, and said
that it was matter calling for care
full consideration.
Senator Kanuha said that Kuhio
would go to Washington next time pre-
pared to work for a law to shut out
| Japanese and give all work to the Ha-
waiians. George w. Smith urged the
I election of Kuhio, saying he had many
friends in Washington and had show
ed ability and tact. w. o. Smith, in
similar strain, said that he had had
many opportunities to see the respect
and confidence Kuhio had inspired in
Washington.
The delegate was received with loud
applause when he rose to speak. He
repeated an account of his doings in
Washington and denied the Home Rule
contention that the act giving fran
chise to Hawaiians had been introduced
by Wilcox, saying that he, Kuhio, had
introduced it. The delegate urged Ha-
waiians to become either Republicans
or Democrats, saying that the Home
Rule party could not accomplish any
thing.
+ The last speaker was Lane, who
warned his hearers against Achi's ia
bor' party scheme.

LAS to the refund bill, I think it is
just about a toss up whether it passes

strongly opposes it, as do a number of
strong men In congress. But I have
the assurance of Col. Hepburn and
others that the Speakers refusal 20 let
the bill come up at the end of this ses-

ly 1t is in position to come up at the
next session If the Speaker will let it.

that the Territory is already well re-

spent in behalf OF the bill. Counting
the $2CO,OOO for the harbor the appro-
priations secured this session will come

DID NOT
LIKE HIS JOB
Continued from page one.)

sluicing. He expected to stay here
during the four days of the Alameda's
stay and was greatly surprised to find
! that he had to investigate the whole
dam and report on its safety.
The engineers failure to write was
quite a surprise to Superintendent Hol-
loway, to whom the report will prob
ably be addressed. Before leaving
Kellogg told Holloway that he would
write by the Sonoma whether he sent
his report or not. The Sonoma was
several days later in leaving San Fran
cisco than her schedule called for and
yet Kellogg sent no word.
Schuyler who Kellogg is thought to
be consulting is an engineer of high
reputation i'm dam matters. 1t is
thought that Kellogg has probably sub
mitted to him the Nuuanu dam plans
and specifications with the facts col
lected by Kellogg while here, and will
ask Schuyler's aid in deciding the pro-
blem of safety.
The impression among those most in
| terested, that the report is to be a con-
demnation of the dam, is increased by
Kellogg's silence and delay. In this
connection it is pointed out that he will
assume a terrible responsibility if he
approves the dam, for if he should
declare it safe, and it should give way
after the great reservoir is filled, his
reputation would be utterly ruined and
he might have the painful experience
of feeling responsible for considerable
loss of life and great destruction of
property. Kellogg will be very certain
| indeed it is argued before he says the
| dam is all right.
incidentally, it is stated, Kellogg had
an experience himself some years ago
with breaking dam. He was the en-
gineer for a dam in Arizona and just
as in the local case another expert was
called in to report on it's safety. The
expert made very brief report, saying
that if the reservoir was ever filled the
dam would bust" A week or so
later the reservoir was filled and the
dam did bust, so completely that when
the water stopped running there wasn't
anything left to show where the dam
had been. This story is one that is
| told of Kellogg and whether true or
not, it perhaps illustrates the sort of
criticism that is likely to be directed
at him when his report comes.
| 1t is now expected that the report will
come on the Alameda next Friday.
