Experts Helping.

The treasury experts who helped the
Senate finance committee in its con-
sideration of the bill are assisting the
conferees in gathering information.
SO many matters had been put over
for future sessions, however, that it
is difficult to tell just how much pro-
gress has been made.
The conferees are making every eff

ton of decisions reached by the con-
ferees regardless of how unimportant
are the questions determined.

SUICIDE IN JAIL

HILO, October ia Chinese, whose
name has not been learned, committed
suicide last Thursday night at the
Kailua Jail where he had been confined
on suspicion of incendiarism.
A snort time ago a store at Keau-
hou-uka, Kona, was burned, and all
the circumstances attending the fire
led the police to believe that it was OF
an incendiary origin. A careful in
vestigation was made, resulting finally
in the arrest last Thursday of the Chr
nese, who was taken to the Kailua Jail
to be held there for investigation.
On Friday morning the prisoner was
found in his cell, dead. He had un-
wound his queue, and using it as a
rope he had wound it around his neck
and had strangled himself.
A coroner's inquest was held, which
came to the conclusion that death was
suicidal.

For His Building

c. r. Collins has brought an injunc-
ton suit against Ariana E. Austin
Edith Austin, H. Austin and w. Austin
the last two in their own right and
as executors and trustees of the will
OF j. w. Austin, late of Boston, de-
ceased, to restrain them from exer-
cising acts of ownership over the
premises on King street. containing
an area of 1862 square feet, leased to
him on January 81, 1901, for a term
of thirty years, and from attempting
to secure the attOTnment to them Of
'sub-lessees of complainant.
He says that the respondents in
writing January 5, 1905, for a good
! and valuable consideration, reduced
the rent to 1920 a year, the reduction
to begin on February 1. thereafter,
| and on November 26, 1906, further
reduced the rent to 5000 a year, the
reduction to begin on December 1
thereafter. On January 1, 1901, he
went into possession of the premises
and ever since has been the owner
| and holder of the lease and in pos
session of the premises.
Prior to June 10, 1909, he caused
to be erected upon the premises a
good and substantial building of the
! value of more than $1,000, and he
says the premises with such and
other improvements thereon are now
reasonably worth $4,000 and have
/ a rental value of 5000 a month.

AUTO TROUBLE

HILO, October 19.-The troubles at
tending the purchase of the Gaspar au-
tomobile by the County appear not to
be over. AS a matter of fact, it
would seem as if the real fun was
just about to commence.
Deputy County Attorney Carl Smith
says that the Supervisors had no right
to buy the auto without first calling
for bids. This contention is based on
the law when compels the Supervisors
to call for bids for work or material
which involves an expenditure of more
than $500.
The question now appears to be whe-
Their Auditor Mcguire or the County
Fathers are the ones to be held liable
under their bonds.
Auditor Mcguire stated last week
that the Deputy County Attorney had
told him that he had better get the
thousand dollars paid for the auto
mobile back from Joe Gaspar, as other
wise suit would be instituted on his
bond, as the purchase had been made
without authority by law In the
mean time the warrant for the money
had already been sent to Gaspar. This
gentleman had, as a matter of fact, al
ready been paid the bulk of the money
before the purchase was authorized
by the Supervisors at their last meet.
ing, through some little arrangement
the details of which are not quite
clear. Mcguire said that he did moi
want to appear as fool to ask Gaspal
to give the money back after it hat
once been given to him.
1T is true that I did tell Mr.. Ma.
guire to do that or there would BIZ
suit brought on his bond" said Mr.
Smith. However, I told him thai
merely as private suggestion, and ]
am surprised that he should have told
about it to any one.
las a matter of fact, the County
has no right to make a purchase OF
this kind, without first calling for
bids"
well, do you anticipate that there
Will actually be suit brought on the
Auditors bond?" Mr.. Smith was ask
ed.
II cannot say just what will happen
just now" was the reply. 81 wish
first to consult one or two parties VINO
are interested in the matter. l should
be very sorry to see Mr.. Mcguire get
into trouble over this matter, as he
is an official who is, trying his best to
do his duty. Furthermore, the Super
visors are, as a matter of fact, liable
under their bonds, also, and the ques-
ton is whether they are not the par
ties who should be held liable, as they
are the ones who rush into things
without any regard to consequences

enter upon the demised premises and
declare the lease to complainant for
feiteI on account of the nonpayment
