GOV. HIGGINS EXPLAINS.
He AXE II Plain That lie Does Not Favor
Odeil's Retention as state Chairman.

Albany, April Gov. Higgins returned
to Albany from New York city this after
noon The inference taken from his state
ment in New York yesterday that he was
for the continuance of Ben jamin B Odeli,
Jr., as chairman Of the Republican state
committee did not please the Governor,
and he made it plain tonight in an official
statement hat he does not favor the re-
tention Of Mr.. Odell as chairman.
While the Governor does not say when a
meeting OF the State committee should he
held to choose a successor to Mr.. Odell,
still it is believed that the committee will
meet soon after the passage by the Legis-
lature of the insurance bills, and it is con-
fidently believed in Albany that there will
be a new chairman of the Republican State
committee before the Legislature adjourns.
When asked tonight in regard to his pub
lished statement in New York city, the
Governor said:
Il certainly did not intend to express
the belief that the continuance Of Mr.. Odell
as chairman of the Republican State COM
mittee would strengthen the interests Of
the party in this State, In New York yes
terday, replying to questions, l stated that
certain financial influences n some poll
ticians who make politics a business be-
lieved that their interests would be strength

man for the present, having in mind pending

WATER FROM MANHATTAN ROCK.
10 900 Gallons q Day Wells Up Into Hotel
Belmont Basement.

A spring with a daily flow Of 10000 gallons
of water has been discovered under the
site of the Hotel Belmont, at Forty-second
street and Park avenue. The spring was
tapped rs feet below the street level. 1t
seems to come right out of the heart Of the
rock and every inch Of the way to it was
blasted.
The flow is steady and is estimated to be
over 400 gallons an hour. A great cistern
has been hewn in the floor Of the fifth base
ment to collect the water, and the future
management Of the hotel is having it
Analysed with a view to determining whether
it can be utilized for the purposes Of the
house when opened. For the present it
keeps a couple OF pumps busy to keep down
the level Of the water in the cistern by dis
charging it into the sewers.
Some ingenious person has advanced the
theory that the water comes from the
Catskill region, a theory which is not alb
solutely impossible.

than 500 voters, while the Ninth has
ago and the Fifth 400. In the Fifth
District. where voting Is generally
slower than In the Fourth, conditions
are luckily much better, there being

votes. namely, the Twelfth. which has

DOWN COUNTRY POLITICAL


Continued from Page y
Ing. listen to the speakers with some
apparent Indifference and retire, leav
Ing the stumpers with no assurance
as 20 how far their volleys OF political
doctrine had penetrated the minds OF
the voters. II seems TO me that the
liayaiians will do good deal Of
scratching on election day. The want
Of advocacy for one party or the 9th.
or and their dead silence impresses
me strongly that the Hawaiians will
Do the scratching act"
Notwithstanding the above remark,
Il may be safe to say that the Repub.
leans win hold their own. No very
alarming changes have developed
which may cause them worry. This is
evidenced particularly by the fight for
the ShcrfIship, wherein the Demo.
Gratis are stalking all their efforts.
One would think that laukea with
his promises to strip the police de.
artment of machine and alleged coz.
ruption. and the installment OF Ell.
cicnt service, would be considered a.
strong champion for cleanness by
the Hawailans.
But such a pledge Is not receiving
very serious consideration ut their
hands.
Again, one would think that the fact
that laukea is a Hawaiian would BIZ Z
strong argument In his favor. But
even this seems 10 fail OF any appre.
ciable show for the Democrats. No
enthusiastic applause or other demon.
Btration Is ever given at the mention
Of Iaukeas name. as IL the lust re-.
ward of n champion or a popular Ha.
waiiun.
This want of enthusiasm was evi.
dent ut the meeting ut Aala Park last
Saturday night. when one OF the anti.
Brown men In the audience quietly
remarked, Make" dead.
J. 7. Baker, candidate for Treasurer
on the Home Rule ticket, who has
Just returned from q tour In Kooiau,

the enthusiasm among the Hawaiians
that was expected along the Kooiau
district. s. w. Logan. Republican
candidate for Supervisor from Koo.

voices Koolauloa. lie said. IF the
Home Rulers endorse laukea, then he
might pull stronger than Brown; but
II he does not receive the endorse.

Washington, Feb. 8. President
Roosevelt has made no statement of his
views concerning the intention of the
Cuban government to send wedding
present worth $4,000 to Miss Alice
Roosevelt for the reason he regards it
as improper to say%anything on the

The president, however, has consist.
emily deprecated the practice Of foreign

whose prominence arises from their; re-

presents which any other foreign gov

responsible for the change in theil
