CITY COUNCIL MEETS TONIGHT.

The city council meets tonight in
an adjourned session. The principal
purpose being for the opening and
consideration of the bids for the erec.
tion of bridges to replace the ohss
destroyed by recent high waters. We
believe that concrete arches should
be placed over these creeks. The
immediate expense may be greater
than the cost of wooden structures,
but in few years there is q very
great saving. The old wooden
bridges have cost tho city great deal
Of money Tor redecking and other re-
pairs-more. by far. than would have
built cement arches. Had they been
30 built without doubt they would
be In place today instead of the pres
ent condition with not plank in

W. 0. W. CELEBRATION At we1MoRE

Wetmore was the scene of the
real thing in the way of jollifica-
ton on Saturday evening, when
fifty -one members of the w. O. w.

The address of welcome was de-
livered by Consul Commander Of
camp Glib, followed by response by
State Organizer Price.
The history of the order was gi-
ven by Head Manager Hawke of
Pueblo. After the money had
been paid by the banker of camp

the note had been returned to
camp Glib, the last evedence of in
debtedncss of the camp was de
stroyed by burning the mortgage
in the presence of $50 people.
The Wetmore Lodge has re-
coId of no deaths since its insti-
tuition nine years ago, and also
has prize for the largest proper
tional increase in membership in
this district.
The banquet was fine, though
such crowd had not been expect

fortunate it was, for to have miss

long however.
1t seems that a colored cook, Smith
by name, was discharged from the
| Lennox hotel and lad some twenty
dollars in cash. With this he
hunted up the first mentioned no.
tables and proceeded in various
ways to separate himself from the
coin. Before morning he had been
rolled for $40 in addition to what
he had spent. and appeared at police
headquarters with his complaint
The officers went to the shack on the
mesa and arrested Garner, who had
slipped back from Bear Gulch, and
one Of the Thompson wome n, the
other one having gotten away to
Williamsburg. After an all day
search she was discovered by the
officers on her way down the Santa
Fe track coming back to Florence
and was placed under arrest and taken
before the police magistrate where
she plead guilty Of violation of ordi-
nance No. 10 az charged as we'll as
to the robbery, etc.
One of the women WAS given 90
days in Jail the other one 60. Garner
got sixty days on the street and Smith
agreed to leave town on No. 4 which
he did.

SATURN
RUMORS
SHE HAS RECEIVED
NO ORDERS GOSSIP WON'T BE
STILL.

U. S. Collier Saturn, with $500 tons
of cargo coal aboard and between 500
and 600 tons of bunkers, is exciting
much curiosity on the front.
Last night it was reported that
meeting of Naval authorities had been
effected through the receipt of cable
with special orders for the Saturn, but
if such was the case there has been
no development. 1t was said that the
Saturn's orders were to clear out today
at noon, but noon came and still she
was alongside the Alakea street wharf,
moored and without sign Of strain
ing at the leash.
The ratguards still ornamented her
hawsers and her crew were enjoying
themselves scrubbing paintwork,
polishing brightwork hosing down and
going over their kits
At the naval station it was stated
that nothing was doing beyond the or
ders, previously reported, for her to
load up and stand by.
Still the rumor, whether or not with
any reason, persisted that she had re-
ceived special orders to get under way
at a certain time. This morning this
time was changed by rumor from noon
to 3 p. m. or $3.50 p. m. One report
had it that she was to go in search OF
the missing British steamship Aeon
maneuvering zig-zag between here and
Samoa looking for the missing steam
ship, and eventually meeting up with
the possibly returning Pacific fleet to
give coal to some of the vessels there
of while at sea.
The truth of the matter is probably
that she has not yet received orders,
If she had received orders the fact
would certainly be known at the Naval
Station.

the Matson people. This of necessity
materially affects the Inter-Island
Company's business, that is it would
affect the business Of the lnter-Island
Company, as SUCH should the COM
panies remain competitors.
But they are not to remain compe-
titors. The Inter-Island Company is
a concern Of large local capital and
the Matson interests are perhaps thir-
ty per cent local.
Now the Inter-Island stockholders
and the stockholders in the Matson
Company are soon to come together for
an amalgamation of interests that will
result in through rates from the main
land to different island ports, prob
able reduced freight rates, a handling
of sugar direct from all island ports
to San Francisco and, in time, a di-
rect line from Honolulu to the Anne
rican Atlantic coast with sugar
through the Panama canal.
This contemplated consolidation OF
Inter-Island and Matson interests will
