HAWAIIAN AND
MOANA To CLOSE
Formal Action in ConsonanCe
With Previous Notice
to Guests.

As was announced to the guests of
the Royal Hawaiian Hotel on Thurs
day would be the case. the stockhoId-
ers of the Hawaiian Hotel yesterday
morning adopted resolution directing
the closing of that hotel temporarily.
beginning at the end of this month.
The resolution sets out that the hotel
has been run at a loss greater than
the fixed charges if the hotel were
closed.
Similar action has been taken by
the owners of the Moana Hotel To
the meeting of the stockholders of the
Hawaiian Hotel, James F. Morgan,
president of the Chamber of Com
merce. and George w. Smith, president
of the Merchants Association, and rep
resentatives of the press were invited
The reason given for this was that it
was desired that the causes OF the ac-
ton should be fully understood and
that no rumOrs detrimental to the
community should be circulated.
The situation was well understood by
the meeting, and there was no debate
on the subject. What discussion there
was. was rather in reiteration of the
necessity for the action, and in giving
assurance that the two hotels. the Ha-
waiian and the Moana, would be kept
ready to open at any time when con-
ditions justified it.
Assurance was also given that the
Alexander Young Hotel was large
enough to accommodate all the tourists
likely to come and that rates would not
be advanced.
The efforts of Alexander Young to
keep these hotels open for the credit
and benefit of the community, even at
great loss to himself, were spoken Of
in terms most fattering and compli-
mentary to Mr.. Young. f. w. Macfar-
lane. representing a large interest in
the Hawaiian Hotel, vigorously mega
lived the idea that the closing of the
hotels had any basis in the fact that
the three hotels had passed into the
control of Mr.. Young. The closing of
the two hotels, Mr. Macfarlane stated
positively, was purely a business prop
osition made necessary by conditions.
Mr. Young stated that, as showing
his good faith. he would retain Man
ager Child in some position in connec-
tion with the Young Hotel, so as to
have his services available at any time
that there was any need or opportunity
for the reopening of the Hawaiian.
Mr.. Child, however, proposes to go
East.

The Kansas river has fallen 4 foot
3 inches in Topeka since 3 O'Clock
this morning. The greatest height,
27.3 feet. was reached at that hour.
Every indication is that the fall will
continue. There are reports of slight
rises in the Smoky Hill and Solomon
rivers, but when they reach Topeka,
probably day after tomorrow, the rise
will hardly be felt.
There have been no heavy rains in
the upper waters of the Kaw and so
1T is safe to say that the danger point
of the flood has passed. While the
damage, especially to farm lands has
been great, there is still time to re-
plant the corn destroyed. So far as
North Topeka is concerned the dam
age has been inconsiderable as COM
pared with the flood of 1908 which
found the people unprepared. 1t is
likely that the people will be able to
return to their homes tomorrow even
in those cases where the water en-
tered the houses.
River Readings.
The following are the readings taken
by the government weather department
on the condition of the river at this
point since 3 o'clock Monday after
noon:

Someone Else Is Chosen.

Chicago, June 9.-Joseph G. Cannon.
speaker of the house of representatives,
arrived in Chicago today from his
home in Danvflle. ILL.,, and declared
| himself a candidate for president. ''un-
til they stop voting or elect some one
else.'
4 am here on business" said the
speaker. Il just ran up from Danville
this morning and will return home to-
night. I am not here to open head
quarters-the boys are doing that for
me. l won't even go down there, nor
Will I visit any other place where the
boys are mixing in.''
Mr.. Cannon declared that in his opin-
ion, 1t was not the proper thing for a
candidate for the presidency ito mix
in personally" but, leave that sort Of
trouble for the boys"
When told Of the fact that Frank H.
Hitchcock was no longer acting assist
ant secretary for the national commit
tee he remarked: "weli, if he was re-
moved, the people doing things proba-
bly, knew what they were doing, but as
to that I am not fully acquainted"
When asked If he was in the race to
stick. he sat upright in his chair
and snapped: stick? Why man I
can't do anything else but stick. The
state of Illinois is behind me, and that
is enough to make a man do almost
anything. Stick! Well I should say
So"
Mr.. Cannon was cheerful as to the
outlook, declaring in conclusion:
''The end is not yet by a long shot"

LOUISIANA.
The Taft people regard the agree
claim that the secretary Of war If
elected, and they predict that with
the most confidence, will naturally
have the right to name the chairman
OF the national committee, and this
official having been empowered to
appoint the Louisiana member of that
body it follows the Taft organization
In the event Of his nomination, will
dominate entirely the political situa-
ton In the Republican party of
Louisiana made the chief argument
for the Taft organization before the
national committee closing at noon.
Immediately thereafter the committee
took recess to formulate its decision
along the lines OF the agreement pre-
viously described.
The compromise was submitted to
by Chairman New, who called Sena-
tor Lodge Of Massachusetts, to the
chair. The recess taken by the COM
mittee to consider the compromise
lasted 20 minutes. The anti-Taft
themselves as entirely satisfied with
the compromise agreement The Taft
people headed by Governor War
mouth and Peal Wight. declared
themselves as having objections to it.
1t was expected however by the mem
bers Of the committee that they
would be brought to acquiesce in
the agreement.
Yarmouth Rebels.
At the termination of the recess
Committeeman Lyon, of Texas,
moved to substitute for the compro-
mise proposition submitted by Chair
man New that the Yarmouth or Taft
delegation be seated. The substitute
was lost by vote of 20 to 80. The
compromise proposition was then
adopted amid loud cheers, no votes
being cast against it.
Intense excitement prevailed out
side the committee room while the
compromise was under discussion by
the national committee. Governor
Yarmouth was in open revolt, de-
claring that his delegation had been
sold out and he would not consent
to the compromise and that he pre-
ferred being defeated outright to ac-
ceptfng it. He and other members of
the Taft delegation severely criticized
Frank H. Hitchcock and all members
of the national committee who were
instrumental in bringing about the
agreement. Immediately after the
decision had been announced by the
committee, Governor Yarmouth said:
II refuse to abide by the decision
of the national committee. I will ap-
peal the case to the credentials COM
mittee OF the convention.
He was asked if he spoke for the
remainder of the delegates.
II should not like to claim to repre-
sent the entire delegation. 1 can not
tell what all the members will do.
For myself, If 1 am defeated before
the credentials committee 1 will go
home. Some members OF the delega-
ton may sit but as to that I can not
say"

Novara. Italy. June 9.-Nine persons
were killed and SO injured by rear
end collision of freight with a pas
senger train at Roccapietra, this pro-

were Italian pilgrims, returning from
an excursion to the sanctuary of the
Crowned Virgin and came from villages
in the vicinity of Varallo.
The passenger train had stopped at
the station on account of an accident
to the locomotive, when a heavily load

telescoped and the freight engine
mounted and crushed the next two
cars.

To Run on the Presidential
Ticket With Taft.
BOOM WAS HELD BACK
On Account of the Candidacy O1
Governor Hughes.
Tomorrow It Will Be Loaded
and Started for Chicago.

Washington, June 9-Indications
are multiplying that Secretary Cortel-
you will be advanced by the Roosevelt
and Taft forces at Chicago as their
candidate for vice president. Secre-
tary Cortelyou himself naturally de-
clined to discuss the matter of his
candidacy for the reason that his ma
tive state already has in the field a
possible candidate for the presidency
In the person of Governor Hugnes.
That fact has so far operated to
prevent any open exchanges between
the friends of Secretary Cortelyou and
Secretary Taft's managers. But it can
be now stated as a fact that in the
opinion of his friends the time has
come when Secretary Cortelyou should
be placed in position to be recog-
nized as New York's candidate for the
vice presidency in the event of the
elimination of Hughes from the presi-
DENTAL race. AS necessary step to a
successful campaign in that direction
there had to be first ascertained the
attitude that President Roosevelt and
Secretary Taft would assume towards
Secretary CortelyOu's candidacy. The
secretary himself has declined TO make
any move in the matter, but his
friends have not felt restrained by that
fact and already they feel that they
have received such encouragement
that they are now prepared to move
at Chicago.
One reason for their confidence is
asserted to be their benef tnat by
strenuous opposition offered by the
Fairbanks contingent to the recogni-
tion of southern Taft delegates in the
battle before the national convention
now in progress, the coupling of the
names of Taft and Fairbanks or or
Roosevelt and Fairbanks on one ticket
has become impossible. Therefore. to-
morrow Secretary Cortelyou's advance
guard starts for Chicago, led by As
Bostonian of long experience in public
affairs and of wide acquaintance with
the various boom managers now In
Chicago.
Cornelius N. Bliss, one time mem
Der of McKinley's cabinet ana treas
urer of the last Republican campaign.
is also said to be bound for CnIcago
in Secretary Cortelyou's interest.
while among other political leaders ex-
pected to espouse his cause is said
to be Senator Murray Crane of Massa-
chusetts, whose support is most anx-
iously desired by the administration
forces.
Governor Guild a Candidate.
Washington, June 9.-It has been
nor Curtis Guild, Of Massachusetts,,
that his name shall be presented to
the Chicago convention as a candidate
for vice president.
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, Of
ssachusetts. who is to be per-
manent chairman of the convention
will leave the chair during the pro-
the candidacy of Governor Guild. The
nomination, it has been arranged, will
be seconded by Chas. S. Oborne of

Taft People Make Their First Conces-
sion on Contests.
Chicago. June Sit has been agreed
by the members of the national COM
mittee to seat both delegations from
Louisiana, allowing each delegate one
half of vote
In consideration of this agreement it
was impressed upon the representatives
of the Louisiana contestants that there
should not under any circumstances
whatever be any auarreling or dispute
between the two delegations. 1t was
further agreed and understood that the
Republican party in the state of Louisi-
ana is to be Immediately and entirely
reorganized under the direction of the
chairman the secretary and one men,
ber of the national committee. Mem
berS of the committee declared that
they We're heartily tired of unceasing
troubles between the "black-and-tan
and lilly whites of Louisiana. Their
disputes have been brought to every
Republican national convention OF re-
cent years and it was determined by
the members of the committee that
this condition of affairs should cease.
AS soon as this arrangement had
been discussed at this end of. the line
it was Immediately submitted by tele-
graph to Washington and considered
both by the secretary of war and the
president who gave it their hearty ap-
DrOVal. Inc IdIC men HOW0NoI uS-
clared that the Louisiana contests
would stand alone so far as compro-
mise is concerned. Contests are still
pending affecting $50 southern dele
gates and the Taft people asserted af-
ter the agreement had been reasched on
Louisiana that the regularly elected
delegates from all of these states should
be seated. 1t was the desire, they said,
to strengthen the party in Louisiana
which led them to agree to the COM
promise.
The conditions prevailing in that
state. however, do not exist elsewhere
and the Taft managers asserted that
there was no concession which they
were prepared to make in any other
case.
The Agreement.
The agreement reached was in the
following words:
saThe proposal for the seating of
both delegates with half a vote eacn
nrovides for the following:
This decision is to carry with 1t
the recognition of neither of the ex-
listing state committees.
st is provided that committee to
he composed of the chairman, secre-
tary and one member of the incom-
ing national committee be employed
to formulate a plan for the thorough
reorganization of the party through
out the state.
..It is agreed that the chairman OF
the incoming national committee,
shall be empowered to appoint the
member of the national COMMITTEES.
