of my ability, which you must know
beforehand is limited.
My time has been fairly well occu-
pied of late with land and water mat
tiers in this neck of Kauai's woods. but
as David Harum says a few fleas more
or less on a dog only help his diges-
ton. l hope the Chamber OF Commerce
will be mindful of this saying should
my written talk prove so uninterest-
ing as to irritate your members to a
point where they might agree with the
dog that said evidently Harum hadn't
been bitten by a real flea"
Kauai, as you know, is all sugar and
''baronial lords,'' and possibly L have
breathed too much of it's reputed 10th
century air, and spent too much time
fighting bugs in the canefields to write
anything of interest apart from sugar,
bugs and 'baronial lords"
However, 1 will submit my paper to
you and if you say it's safe for me to
risk my person reading it before your
body, l will take chance.

To the Trustees Honolulu Chamber of
Commerce, Honolulu, H.. I.
Dear Sirs: Your Finance Committee,
to which was referred the request adj
dressed by the Merchants Association
of New York to the Commercial Or
CARNATIONS of the United States, for
their approval of the Fowler Currency
Plan, so called, now before Congress,
beg leave to report that after examin-
ing the chief features of that plan, we
do not see our way clear to recommend
its endorsement by the Honolulu Cham
Der of Commerce.
Without discussing its features in de-
TAIL some of which are evidently COM
mendabIe, we believe that it provides
on the whole for a departure from
present methods too radical to meet the
sentiment of our community, which has
been for so long time and under
varying financial conditions so exclu-
sively committed to the use of specie
currency. r-~
Respectfully submitted,

VICTIM OF A
REVOLVER ACCIDENT

William Arthur Inman, sons of A.
V. Inman, of Liliha street was the
victim of a revolver accident yester-
day morning, accidentally shooting
himself through the body with a
irty-eight-caliber ball. He was
taken to the Queens Hospital, where
last night he was reported to be rest
ing very comfortably"
Young Inman was living with his
grandmother alone, his father being
the chief engineer on the Kinau and
necessarily away from home for the
greater part of the time. He was in
the habit of keeping revolver under
his pillow and it is supposed that in
taking this out yesterday morning he
exploded it in some way. The bullet
struck him in the right breast and
came out under the right shoulder.
The wound is a serious one, but not
necessarily fatal.

The Chamber of Commerce, Honolulu,
Hawaii.
Dear Sirs: I beg to thank you for
your joint cable of the 18th inst.
authorizing me to invite the Committee
on Naval Affairs to visit Hawaii.
/ have mailed a personal letter to
each member of the Naval Committee,
extending them the invitation on your
behalf, and suggesting July 23rd as a
tentative date to sail from San Fran
cisco.
Owing to the fact that this is a
presidential campaign year, it may not
be possible for a sufficient number of
the committee to take time for this
long trip, and it may prove necessary
to postpone the visit until next year.
The Pacific Coast Congressman are,
however, urging the committee to make
the trip this summer, and we shall
probably have a definite decision within
the next two weeks.
have already secured from the
Pacific Mail s. S. Co. a special round
trip rate of 800 each for the members
of the committee in case they decide
to go.
passage of the Pearl Harbor bill by
the H~lse, we put in much personal
work among the members of the Senate
Naval Committee toward securing in
ereases of the bill particularly for the
channel work.
l am glad to report that the Senate
Committee doubled the appropriation
for channel work, as well as adding
$150,000 for buildings and yard de
velopment.
We shall now endeavor to get the
House eonferees to agree TO these in
ereases, and / am hopeful that they
will do so.
Whether the Naval Committee are
able TO accept your invitation this year
or not, | am very certain that it will
not be without good effect in increasing
the friendly personal attitude on the
part of the committeeman toward Ha-
wall and Pearl Harbor.
Very truly yours.
