people ask, HAS it cured 9TH

Prior to January 1.

Governor Frear would not express
any opinion as to when the legislature
would be called together, if called at
all. However, he said that congress
will not adjourn until late next spring.
On the other hand, some of those who
have been in attendance at the confer
ence express the opinion that if a spe-
cial session is called. it will be for
some day prior to January l.
1t appears to be largely question
as to whether or not it would be a wise
political move TO call special session.
Some of the representatives at the con
ference eoncede that it would be a
wise business move. They say that if.
by the endorsement of the legislature.
congress can be prevailed upon to
amend the Organic Act so as to permit
OF change in the method of refund
ing the bonded Indebtedness of the Ter
Tltory, Hawaii will save more than $50
600 IN the first year. It is figured that
a special session would not cost more
than $4,000, so from business stand
point the Territory would be making
money by having a special session.
But if anyone knows whether there
will be special session or not, it is
Governor Frear, and it is safe wager
that he hasn't made up his mind yet.

favor of special session. He says
that he thinks the matters under dis
cussion by the conference are the peo-
pie s business, and the people through
their legislative representatives should
have some say as to what is to be done.
But the Governor says nothing. When
asked as to the probabilities or POSSIBLE
tiles of a special session beng called,
ne smiles gently and wants to know if
anyone has heard him say anything
about a special session.
But he did state yesterday that in
the possible event of special session
being called, he thought it probable
that the legislature would be able to
get through its work in ten days and
possible in FIVE.

At present there seems to be dis
position to subject the reports sent in
on the water supply for the proposed
brigade post to a thorough investiga-
tion. 1t is understood that a major
ity and minority report on the water
question went to Washington as por-
ton of the report on the selection of
site. However, as $4,000 are availa-

the post will undoubtedly be under

Joint Maneuvers Pau.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.--Joint ma
neuvers of the regular army and the
national guard are a thing Of the past
at least there will be no repetition of
the recent Boston campaign, as long as
the present directing forces in the war
department are in control.
Some valuable lessons were learned
in that period of stress and privation,
but the cost in human suffering is held
by the war department officials to have
been out of all proportion to the
benefits.
And, besides, they are now convinced
that all of real utility taught to the
militiamen could just as well have been
impaired through other means, and
without filing the hospital cots during
the campaign, and without causing the
dreary lists of absentees on company
roll cali in the national guard armories
since then, attributable to sickness.
Therefore it. has been decided that
hereafter the participation of the mill
tia in an encampment with the regular
soldiers every second year will limit
the intermingling of these forces.
Critics of the maneuvers now declare
that the brunt of the suffering fell
upon the private who, it is said, did not
need that sort of instruction, while
the officers could have obtained it
otherwise

Coal Carriers for Navy.

SEATTLE, Oct 3.-As the result of
a conference between members of the
Merchant Marine league of Seattle and
Beekman Winthrop, assistant secretary
of the navy, for the protection of the
shipping of the Pacific Coast, clause
will be inserted in the charters for coal
eargoes to the Pacific between the gov
eminent and foreign vessels which will
prohibit>them from competing with ship
owners on the Western coast. They will
be paid for the entire haul and, under
the form of the contract, they must re-
turn to the original port empty.
George E. Thorndyke, a member of
the executive committee of the league,
held conference with Mr.. Winthrop
during his visit to this city a few days
ago in which the result to American
bottoms of coal charters between the
government and foreign ship owners
hauling to the Pacific Coast was care
fully explained. Mr.. Winthrop stated
that he would at once take up the
plan of having the contracts based on
the entire trip and on the basis that
such boats must return empty.
