NEGOTIATIONS NOT
YET UNDER WAY
Surrender of LeiIehua Reser'
walton Lease May Assume a
Give and Take Form.

An interesting point has arisen il
connection with the occupation of q
portion of the Leilehua military reser
walton by the War Department, while
it is still under lease to a corporation
and sublessees. In time of war the Wal
Department could enter upon the land
at will and establish camps and FORTH
cations if necessary, In time of peace
there are certain negotiations to be en-
tered into before the government can
place its soldiers on land used by others
for peaceful purposes.
In the present. instance the entire
Leilehua reservation is the property of
the United States and much of it is I'M
der lease to the Dowsett Ranch Com.
pany, and sublessees have planted
a large area in pineapples. The lease
to the ranch has four years to run.
However, the ranch people gave per-
mission for the War Department to
move upon the reservation on the I'M
derstanding that negotiations be en-
tered into for a proper surrender by
the company to the government of the
lands required. The representatives of
the ranch interests believe that the ne
gotiations will take the course of give
and-take.

HARBOR DREDGING WORK
READY TO BE ACCEPTED

couple of days, win be paid the final
portion of the contract money, the en-
tire work amounting to nearly 100000.
The work was completed eight or nine
months ahead of the allotted time, and
is regarded as excellent. The result is
a great enlargement of the harbor area,
particularly where the old lighthouse
formerly stood. This old site has been
entirely dredged out and the lighthouse
is now built on the new sand island,
and will have it's lantern soon.

HONOLULU BIDS
HIGH AND LOW
DiIlingham's Representative
Went to Florida to Inspect
a Dredging Job.

Honolulu contractors supplied the
highest and the lowest bids for the
dredging of Pearl Harbor and the chan
nel, Dillingham; putting in the lowest
and Hogs & Belser the highest. The
other bids, all by mainland contractors,
were sandwiehed in between. Robert
Atkinson of the Dillingham; dredging

Walter Dillingham; in yesterdays mail,
but his letters were written before the
award of the contract was made to him.
The various bids were as follows:
Dillingham;, $3,56O,OOO; R. A. Perry,
s$3,662,S4s; Coastwise Dredging Com
pany, $4,300,000; American Dredging
Company, $4,937,312; Hogs Belser,

Mr.. Dillingham; wrote that George
DenisOn, superintendent of the Oahu
Railway Company, who went to Wash
ington with Mr.. Dillingham;, had gone
to Florida to inspect some dredging
work being done there under conditions
similar to those which will be encount-
cred at Pearl Harbor.
The dredging outfits of the Dilling-
ham Company in these waters are in
readiness to be put to work The
dredger Governor and the Reclamation
have just finished the Honolulu harbor
work and can be sent to Pearl Harbor
any time. Other outfits and supplies
will be ordered on the mainland by
Messrs. Dillingham; and Denison.
The contract calls for 35-foot depth
in the channel and harbor, ond not 30
feet, as has sometimes been stated.

A conference was held yesterday af-

CITY HAS WASTED
ENOUGH CASH TO
BUILD A SUBWAY
William M. WINS Tells Legisla-
tive Committee About
New York's Finances.
S3o,oOo,ooO ARE WASTED.
Witness Says Bonds Should
Not Be Made Part of a
"Big Kitty"
S3o,ooo,ooo ARE WASTED.

william NJ. WINS was the first witness
to-day when the hearing OF the Legis-
latire Finance Inquiry Committee was
resumed In the Aldermanic Chamber
City Hall. He was asked for sugges-
tions In regard to the city's debt limit.
He submitted In answer the report OF
tho Charter Commission which was to-
day forwarded to Gov. Hughes.
Mr.. WINS declared that the develop
ment Of the city was retarded by the
fact that when the city approached its
limit of taxation and expenditures all
tho movements for Improvement and re-
lief were held UP. The exhaustion of
the borrowing capacity OF the city was
attributed to the extravaganza OF the
various administrations within the last
ten years that seemed TO regard the
credit OF the city as unlimited and the
money was spent without a thought of
the future.
Within the last ten years. Mr.. WINS
said, the city has wasted s36, 0oo, 900 that
would now be in the treasury had the
taxes been collected. The money used
he explained. has been to offset the
deficit due to the non-payment Of
taxes.
If We had that money in the treas
ury now" declared the witness, I'VE
could build at least one subway"
The reason for the failure to collect
a large part Of the taxes was due
Mr.. Wins said. to the levying of taxes
and assessment where there was no
chance Of their being paid.
IF we can't collect the taxes how
can We remedy conditions" asked
Senator Cassidy.
Stop Pooling Ourselves.
I'VE can stop fooling ourselves that
we can get money where 1t cannot come
irona," replied Mr.. WINS. 1T has been
the policy Of the city officials not to
pursue those who owe. I believe II Is
quite possible for the city government
20 collect every dollar of the real es-
tats taxes except In cases where the
amount. with interest, is greater than
the value of the property. II the Legis-
lsture passed a law that would deprive
purchaser and vendor of the right OF
registration and recording. It would
make 1t impossible to evade the tax.
Bonds the witness continued.
should be used for the sole purpose for
which they were issued and should not
be a part of the big kitty that Is fed
upon for every purpose
The injudicious assessment by the tax
commissioners, Mr.. WINS asserted. had
brought the policy OF the Tax Depart
me ut into ridicule. The personal tax
as it works out In practice, was an UNI
just tax because the intelligent and dis
honest had no trouble In swearing off
their assessments; the poor, the honest
and the ignorant were the only persons
who submitted to It.
Regulation Of Salaries.
In answer to a question by Assembly
man Warren I. Lee. MIR. WINS sa ii the
salaries of city employees shouii Re
regulated by the local officiais. so that
the city might have absolute home rule
Senator McCarren was an interested
listener.
Il am glad to see that you are a home
ruler" he said to Mr. WINS.
Why, Senator" answered Mr.. WINS.
II was a home ruler before you were
in politics."
