NOT VERY DIP

The committee on the Lanai inyesti.
CATION got into lire at 1880 last night
The first witness called war Mr.. Kid
well, an appointec of Land Commits
sioner Pratt to apprEisc the land on
Lanai for valuation. lie testified that
Mr.. Pratt insisted that valuations
should have for their base the assump-
ton that the government controlled the
water In Maunalei gulch.
Mr. Kidwcll thought that II would
be next to impossible for a man to
make a living from thousand acres OF
Lanai land. He was excused.
Clerk John Wise OF the House of
Representatives was next placed on
the carpet lie testified that In his
opinion tho Mauna.el gulch was tue
only source OF water ON Lanai that
could De considered as being able to
supply water In any quantity to speak
OF.
Mr.. Wise said that he had been in
formed that this Maunalei stream be-
longed to private land owners and that
the government could claim no owner
Ship whatever. lie was very doubtful
rs to The island beng of any value Tor
agricultural purposes. He wound up
his testimony with the statement that
he would rot accept the whole island
as gift.
Alexander Dos set. when called on
for information regarding Lanai, eX'
pressed his estimation OF the island
ON about the same line with Wise !
views.
The committee adjourned until 1890
tonight.
