Bill No 161, entitled can Act making
special appropriations for the use OF
the Government of the Territory OF
Hawaii to pay claims incurred prior
to and inclusive of the thirtleth day
of June, A. D. 1905,' and recommend
ed the passage of the bill with the
following amendments:
son page 3, under the head OF De-
nartment of Public Works, subhead,
Departmental Expenses, insert the fol-
lowing item:
es'19O4. Hilo Tribune Pub. Co.,
Ltd, three bills, 5000
"On page 7, under the head of Claims
for Property Taken for Street Widen
ING strike out the following item:
PAYMENT in full to j. FL. kamlo
for land at Kipahulu, taken for road
purposes, 5000 and insert the follow
ing item in its place:
"sPavment in full to J. IL. hamlo
for land at Kipahulu, taken for ROAD
purposes, 500
son page 15 strike cut the follow
ing item:
Reimburse Pioneer Mill Co, ex-
nenses incurred during strike of Japa-
nese at Pioneer Mill, May, 1905, ST.
-542.13.'
e.The first item referred to is ap-
proved by the Superintendent OF PUP
lie Works, and was overlooked from
the fact that no bill had been pre-
scented for this matter until March ~
of this year.
ssThe item of 5000 in payment for
land taken from J. III. Kamio at h1-
Dahulu is considered entirely too mucn
for the amount of land taken, and
IS therefore reduced to $50, which your
committee feels is ample and sufficient
payment.
<1The item of s1,542.13 to reimburse
she Pioneer Mill Co. is striken out Tor
the reason that your committee was
Given to understand that at the time
of the riot at Lahaina IN l9oo, the
Pioneer Mill Co. offered to bear the
expense of transportation OF the troops
from Honolulu to Lahaina to enapie
them to suppress the riot that mighe
have involved the destruction OF their
whole property; and your committee
feels that the Government having ac-
.eeded to the call for help should not
now be called upon to reimburse SAID
company for this expense and other ex-
penses incurred at the time for the
suppression of the riot.
