The merchants association has once
more gone on record as being in favor
of the suspension Of the coastwise ship
ping laws. At a meeting of the board
of governors of the association, held
yesterday afternoon, the matter came
up, and after full discussion, it was
decided that the resolution adopted
March of this year favoring coast
wise suspension should be allowed to
stand. At the time the resolution was
adopted, the vote stood forty five in
favor Of suspension, eleven against and
eleven did not vote.
This action leaves every public COM
mercial body in Honolulu strongly on
record as being in favor of coastwise
suspension, resolutions to that effect
having been adopted by the CONNER
cal club, the promotion committee,
chamber of commerce and the mer-
chants association.

ing OF the board of governors yester-

will be several months before the case
Of Postmaster Pratt, at Honolulu, has
been disposed Of, according to present
plans, but as intimated in a recent
cablegram to The Advertiser, Postmas-
ter General Hitchcock contemplated Mr..
Pratt s reappointment. The postmaster
general feels that the Honolulu postmas
ter has been the victim of untoward
circumstances, that he has had many
difficulties in getting good assistance
for the money that the government al.

office some months ago should not be
taken as conclusive of conditions or of
the character of Postmaster Pratt Is ad.

Therefore it is proposed that matters
shall run along for several months yet
and then that there shall be another
inspection of the office. Unless that
inspection is very unsatisfactory, there

four years.
