the City and County of Honolulu, one
of the duties of whose sheriff is, by
express provision in the City and Coun-
ty Act, to attend the circuit court.
The item for the salary of the assist

may also be dispensed with without
erippling the work of that court.
The question is not what is desired.
but what is necessary, in view of the
financial conditions.
Governors Whip Hand.
The House took a recess to consider
the vetoes and members gathered in
little knots The Hawaii delegation
was all for overriding without delay,
but Gained down when it was pointed
out that the Governor had the Legis-
lature by the short hairs.
Yes, override this and have the bill
turning over the fines and licenses to
che counties pocket-vetoed, said Rice
And that's all the fault of the SEN
ate sobbed the chorus.
Mainly the fault of that Demo
cratic assistant clerk, over there said
another He poked that bill away
among the tabled bills"
But whatever it was. it was general
ly agreed that the Governor had the
whip hand and that there must be no
quarreling with him now.
.'Twice we've put the Hanalei wharf
item through after a fight: twice the
Governor has vetoed it. and for the
second time we have to vote to sus-
tain him. said Coney.
At o'clock the House took up the
matter again, Coney moving to con-
slider the veto as a whole. The Speak
err ruled against this and ordered the
matter taken up item by item.
The deputy sheriff item was read.
Coney moved to concur.
Shingle stated that the Governors
message surprised him, as he thought
the House and Senate had done good
work. getting the bill s31, 900 within
the revenues. The figures of the Audi

mated, $2,S59, 052-75; appropriations, 81

"Twenty-four hours later I call on
the Governor and he has another esti-
mate from the Auditor showing the
bill to be 92,69S.S7 over the estimated
revenues

Severe Break in Erie Securities-Dis
trust of Speculative Position.

New York. Jan 1.-THE selling OF
stocks today was clearly due to con-
viction that the previous advances had
| exceeded the warrant of the good in
the condition and the prospects, rather
than from the development of any fac
tor OF positive encouragement in the
situation or outlook The severe break
in the Erie securities had a special ex-
PLANTATION in the belief that the pro-
posed $50, 100000 bond issue, which was
the plan OF financing the roads neces-
sites selected by its directors, had
failed to meet the necessary approval
Of the public service commission. It
was claimed that a sub-plan was al
ready formulated which would supplv
the needed resources and also meet
with the consent of the public service
commission. This did not serve to
avert the crash in the quotations OF
the Erie shares and the unsettling ef-
feet Of this crash on the whole Of the
general list. Those shares played the
same part in the speculation that was
played last week by the Consolidated
Gas, the New York Central and the
Interborough-M Metropolitan stocks in
succession. The slump was aggravat-
ed by the reiteFation of disquieting
rumors Of the condition Of E. H. Har-
riman's health, although these were
authoritatiyely denied. The sensitive
ness Of Erie to these runors was an
other reminder OF the extensive specu-
lation which has been based on the as
sumptions Of Mr.. Harriman's supposed
activities and intentions In regard to
most C duplicated and comprehensive
plan of railroad betterment, much of
which has never had any Acknowledged
authority and a great part of which
was clearly beyond the powers of
single Individual to perform. The fail
ure Of Mr.. Harriman's expected ap-
pearance in the New York Central di-
reotorate last week served to chill con-
hdence IN many of these speculative
assumptions, the case Of the Erie
shares today offering a conspicuous
example. While the sympathetic eff
feet of these special points Of weak
ness IL the market is not lost sight of,
1t Is clear that there had grown up a
sentiment OF distrust of the speculative
position. which left the market yulncr-
able to this sympathetic influence. Ad-
vices which went out from Wall street
at the end Of last week from brokerage
and commission houses had explicit
warning, in many instances, Of the
danger of a break in prices. The re-
suit was felt in the character Of the
orders for execution in the market to-
day. An important and organized bear
party was arrayed against the market
and the bull position was held timidly
and with a reserve intention to retreat
before unfavorable developments. The
afternoon rally in prices followed the
evidence of support for the Fries and
the days net changes are generally
small. Bonds were irregular. Total

Monday nights games in the duck
pin league put Westerly team No. 1
in the lead with a good margin, as
they took three straight from New
London No. 2 on the New London al
leys. and the Norwich Warriors came
up into second place by beating their
rivals for that position, New London
No. 1, two games out of three. The
other two teams in the league did not
roll, their match being postponed.
The rollers pulled off no record
breaking scores. but there were sew
eral singles of 100 or over, Murphy and
Tottey of Norwich getting 10S and
109, respectively, Brubeck of New
London 104, Coffin of New London 102.
Armstrong of New London rolling 104

coNNEcTIcUT,s LAW BEST.
Autoists Want No Change-Speed
Limit is Now Safe and Sane, They

AS another step in its crusade to
bring about an intelligent understand
ing of the present automobile law; TO
try to make it evident that it is an
ideal law for the protection of all users
of the highway, and to assure against
it being changed in favor of the old
time speed trap and village constable
regulation. the Automobile cluD OF
New Haven has sent out to every
newspaper in Connecticut an appeal
for fair and complete explanation of
the law to the public.
The association claims that Connec-
ticut's automobile law is the best that
has been devised, one that protects
every person in the state from reck-
less driving, if the law is enforced, and
one that also protects every automoDne
driver from persecution.
The association invites a test Of the
present law in each locality by that
that they believe, from their expert
ence, that the intelligent enforcement
Of the present law, for the period of
one week. will end reckless driving in
any city, town or borough in the state.
We further believe no fixed" speed
limit can be established which will
render city driving as safe, or controf
it as well, as the present law, unless
the limit be placed so low as to be
prohibitive.

tanning the address on the interpreta-
ton and enforcement of><he Connecti-
cut auto law, given by Attorney c. NJ.
Robinson, chairman of the CUPS legal
committee, to the New Haven police

that II be printed, in part at least,

HARD TO SIZE UP.
5atters and Catehers Have a Hard
Time Trying to Gauge the Spittban.

It's an established fact that 1t is al
most impossible for a batter to gauge
the spitball when handed up by an ex-
pert damp finger, but 1t is not gen.
orally known that at times it is almost
impossible for the catcher to handle
the delivery, says Addie Joss.
For some reason the pitchers who
use the splitter are unable to tell ex-
actIy where the ball is going to break
or how much of q shoot 1t will take.
One time the ball will break out,
another time the sphere takes an in
ward shoot. but most of the time it
breaks down, just like a drop curve.
These queer pranks are the bane of
every catcher. Chesbro's wild pitch
at New York, which gave Boston the
American league championship a few
ting away from the big fellows con-
troll, has already been made famous.
Buck Orth, who until the middle of
last season served up spitban slants
and shoots for the Highlanders, nearly
put Harry Bay out of the business one
day during 1906.
Buck has a, splitter that breaks like
an out curve, only good deal faster.
Bay, who crowds the plate when hit
ting and who grasDs the bat WITH
hands spread apart, swung hard on one
of Orth's offerings.
The ball, instt I'D of going where Har
ry thought 1t would, took one of those
crazy shoots toward Bay and struck
him on the forefinger of his left hand.
Naturally the ball did not travel very
far, Just going over Orth's head and
so slow that it was an easy matter for
Deerfoot to beat the throw to first.
Bays finger received the full force
of the blow and he was out of the
game for g. couple Of weeks. This was
one of the times where a man made a
base hit with his finger.
ProbalAy no pitcher in the business
has q better splitter than big Ed Walsh.
the famous White Sox twirler. He
gets a wonderful break on his Spit
ball.
