structing the free bath house at the
beach, an abundant supply Of water Is
of far more Importance Indeed it is
not only important that we should
have an abundant supply of water but
that it should be pure, neither of
which requirements are flu hlled IN
this case. Indeed it is well known
that the Civic Federation and other
parties have been working for years
and urging again and again the i'm
portance or necessity of filtration
plant for filtering the Nuuanu water,
or of getting some other means of Sc
curing pure water, without any re-
suits. | want also to say that I con-
slider this the most important ques-
ton before the public at the present
time, because it may mean not only life
and health but the safety of the city
as well And | consider it a shame
that the authorities should have to
make announcement, from time to
time, that the water is impure and that
water cannot be used only at certain
times of the day.
And | sincerely hope that the quos-
ton will be taken up at once because
il is of more Importance than schools,
roads or anything else
Very truly,
GEORGE OSBORNE.

STOCK MARkET REVIEW.
Prices Fluctuate Wildly Unsettled by
 Conflicting Forces.

New York, Oct. 5.--Prices Of stocka fuetuated wildly to-day and showed the unsettling of strong conflicting forces. on the one hand was the acute crisis developed in the Near Eastern question and on tne other the tonic effect of tho striking upward movement in the Hill railroad stocks. It was noticeable that while prices re- covered readily from tho opening break caused by tne Bulgarian war prospect there was much more heai- tation in following tho further recov- cry over the Saturday level in Sympa- thy with the strength in tho Hills and weakness was renewed 1t he lPst. This was partly ascribed 10 the rI- diWdual causes supposed 10 be back of the Hill movement which, t was feared, might leave the general list unresponsive. The Northern Ia fife melon cutting rumors wer" revived in full force and were responsible for the buoyant rise in that stock and in Great Northern pf. Tho knowledge that tomorrow is the date for the an- nual meeting of the Northern Pacific stockholders helped 10 give credit to the stories of early developments, These rumors were supplemented by renewal of reports that segregationof Union Pacific assets was in prospect, with distribution to stockholders If shares in holding company This com. bination was an exact reproducti Nn of rumors heard through the summer in conncctior with the risa in sto ks but which were dropped su llcnly out of consideration when E. Fl, Hartman returned from the uest and prices sIumped in tho stock market, The flavor of renovation lhou. them de. prved them of some of their force, The analogy Wss cdrciAl further by tacking on the rrltnurs of important Hartman plans concerning the Erie. The general list was gr5wngly unre- sponsive to this Stinuant and finally broke badly 4galn Tho late reaction owed something, also, to ine fear of further effects from the Balkan uut-

Political discussion on Wall street appeared to he leaning more strongly towards predictions of Tafts election partly. no doubt, because of last weeks market The question more widely mooted was whether or not that event will cause the immediate boom in trade and prices which the more hopeful have prophesied as a result of it. This Is hard matter to judge. because So much depends on. the part played by sentiment Bryans defeat in 1896 caused only temporary improvement in either business or finance: the boom did not come until the next autumn. His defeat in No vember, 1900, had 8 very different sequel; every one knows what follow cd Yet SO well-esteemed a Wall street prophet as James R.

II has recently been proposed that an
annual congress Of governors be ar
ranged for. Questions similar to the

bearings by the governors individually
and their ripe thought and conclusions
laid before the assembly. Conferences
- this nature have usually been Of an

urgent cases or to provide for some
national celebration. and with the con

operation ended. An annual congress
would soon become parliament
wherein conditions could be laid bare
and measures debated. Legislate the
governors could not, but after confer,
