CHINESE LEGISLATION.

There is a decided. disposition in
Senate and House to defer any legisla-
tion on the Chinese question till the
next, or short session. This is because
of the harm that might be done the
Republicans on the Pacific coast states.
Senator Dillingham; is preparing to give
hearings on the boycott, before the
Senate Committee on immigration, but
these are being postponed from week to
week and there seems to be little de-
termination to press matters. The
House Committee on foreign affairs is
also going ahead with the Foster bill,
affecting the admission of Chinese, but
there again no determination to press
matters is apparent

SEGREGATION BILL.

The committees of Congress, which
have to do with Hawaiian affairs, have
transacted but little business at this
session, apart from the hearings On the
segregation bill The Senate Commit
tee on Pacific Islands has hardly taken
up an item OF Hawaiian business for
the entire session. Neithe- mas it any
Hawaiian business on baud, unless the
segregation bill passes the House.
THE FaRrIFICk ZION MEASURE.
The senate eSterday had a long
wraaple os-r tbe Notifications bill
ard an item 70 appropriate $780,
600 f3r erecting sea-coast batter
fes IA the Hawaiian and Philippine
1ziands. There was protracted de-
bate, ending in the striking out of the
entire provision with reference to the
Philippines and leaving the item so as
TO provide 100000 for sea-coast bat
teries in Hawaii. The debate was al
most exclusively on Philippine matters
and followed the lines of debate in
the House, when the Notifications bill
was under consideration there. The
Senate had inserted an amendment that
none of the appropriation for the Phil
ippines should be expended at Subig

QUARANTINE CONTRACT.

The Supervising Architect of the
Treasury, Mr.. James Knox Taylor,
stated today that at last the contract
for the construction of the quarantine
wharf has been completed A para
graph in the urgent deficiency law,
permitted the use of larger appropria-
ton for the original runway. Instead
of permitting $4,000 for that work as
the law enacted some years ago pro-
vided, the new provision permitted the
transfer of $4,000 from the appropria-
ton for the wharf to make the appro-
priation for the runway $4,000. Ae-
cordingly the contract for the runway
has now been let, the price being lit

ALCOHOL FOR THE ARTS.


matters, is apparent.
ALCOHOL FOR THE ARTS.
The House Committee on Ways and
Means has a subcommittee at work on
a bill for free alcohol in the arts and
industries which will probably be OF
interest in Hawaii, because of the feas
Utility of manufacturing alcohol out of
cane refuse. Extensive hearings have
been conducted before the committee
and numerous bills were introduced.
These hearings created most favora-
BILE impression, and a majority of the
committee is said to be in favor of
such legislation There is opposition
from the manufacturers of gasoline
and wood alcohol. which will have some
support in the committee.
, However, the drafting of more
comprehensive bill than any yet intro
duced is now in progress. The internal
Revenue officials say this will be neces-
sarv to prevent frauds upon the gov
eminent. A small tax on the de
naturalized alcohol will probably be
authorized to pay the expense of adj
ministering the law. The possibilities
of cheap alcohol, for fuel. are said to
be as great as the uses to which gaso-
line is now put. Alcohol can be man
ufactured from decayed fruit, which
makes the passage of the bill very pop
ular in many sections of the country.

Mail Special to the Advertiser

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 21.-
The subcommittee in charge of the Ha-
waiian segregating bill is expected to
have its report ready for the meeting
of the full committee on territories to-
morrow. a favorable report from the
subcommittee, headed by Chairman
Cole, has already been alluded to and
there is reason to believe there will be
a favorable report from the full COM
mittee for greatly modified bill, al
though that is not yet fully assured.
The opposition is very strong.
The subcommittee has already adopt
ed an amendment, restricting the op-
erations of the bill to term of FIVE
years. This it is understood was done
at the suggestion of Representative
Powers, of Maine, who, although not a
member of the subcommittee is a MEM
Der of the committee and has had an
active part in Hawaiian legislation.
He is opposed to the bill and is not
now dismissed TO vote for it.
