BOARD MIDDLE.
IS GETTING
WORSE
More PayroIls Pass Up
! to Auditor---Job for
Crawford.

The Honorables, the Mayor and the
Board of Supervisors of the City and
County of Honolulu maundered on in
their inane course last night for a
couple of hours, the session being not
even amusing. No step was taken to
advance the matter of the ultimate
payment of any one of the factions
in the city employment, but good care
was taken to have the Board adjourn
to a date before the end of the month
so that the Supervisors themselves can
draw down their stipends.
On par with the other great re-
suits of the conclave was the confirma-
ton of the nomination of Willie Craw-
ford to a position in the office of the
City Attorney, the clerk for giving him
a place at the public trough being
labeled Messenger
Throughout the meeting the Mayor
declined TO put alternate questions
and Logan went through his motions,
presenting the resolutions and other
matters which had been carefully type
written out, by someone who could
shape a coherent sentence, and passed
around among the members. The meet
ing was as edifying as blank bill
board, as amusing as second-class
funeral and as important in result ac-
complished as the meetings of this
Board usually are.
The whsle thing has ceased to be
a joke.
When the hour of converting arrived,
there were at the council table only
the Mayor. his secretary and Super
visor Mcclellan The rest of the
Board, Including the City Clerk, were
in the office of the City Attorney S
office being primed for their part IN
the general business of qualification.
They filed in in tow of Deputy CITY
Attorney Milverton after His Honor
and the minority had sat through
solemn FIVE minutes waiting. The
minutes told that this was the seven
teenth meeting since January :.
Payrolls and salary demands were put
in by four committees, representing all
the branches of the municipal service
and totaIling $S119.07.
The Mayor refused to put the mo-
tions that the committee reports be
adopted, refusing once as prellmln-
.ary and three times ON each formally,
making sixteen refusals and twelve
demands. Each report was followed by
an order to the Auditor to pay the
sums voted, bringing the refusais up
to thirty-two and the respectful de-
mands'' of Logan up to two dozen.
At every preliminary refusal His Honor
announced that he was not blocking
the affairs of government, each denial
being promptly met by the statement
that he was, Logan, Aylett and Kane
being the spokesman. "You are block

TAGGERS WILL WORK

from what can be learned in a second

meeting with a success greater than he
had anticipated.
Somewhere on the heaving Pacific,
with her head pointed Honoluluwards
and her wake leading back to San
Pedro, sails the good bark Alden Besse,
bringing samples of what the Los An.

to offer Honolulu merchants. There are
ten tons of these samples. The bulk
of the Besse S cargo consists of one

CASE OF SARTORIS
CAUSES MUCH TALK K
Resignation and Alleged
Feud Principal Topic in
Diplomatic Circles.

s.The resignation of AlgeTnon Sartoris
as secretary of the American legation
of Guatemala has aroused diplomatic
OFFICIALS as few cases in recent years
have, and ne family feud alleged to be
back of the action, is the sole topic of
conversation IN diplomatic circles To-
day.
Tha- family disagreements had al
ready handicapped Sartoris in his Off
cial career was brought TO light forcibly
today with a chapter Of inside history
Of Sartoris' relations with the State De-
partment.
The feud dates back, it is said. to the
marriage of Miss Nellie Ga ant and the
elder sartoris, while Grant was yet
President-a marriage to which the
Grant side of the house was said to be
opposed.
But the strange part of the story
is that this coolness toward Sartoris
| seems to have found way into the
very inner circles of the diplomatic
service, and there to lave been re-
| hected through high off cials in the
| treatment accorded Sartoris.
Difficulties He Faced.
The difficulty that surrounded his ap-
! pointment TO his present post is cited by
| friends as one instance of the alleged
| opposition to Sartoris. After his name
| had been mentioned for the PLACE HI
was told that ne could not receive
/ an appointment because his war recoJo
] was unsatisfactory.
| Sartoris demanded of Secretary Rooi
| that the papers be produced from tht
| War Department 10 show that he mac
| a record of honorable service in the
f! regular army which included A cam
| paign in the Philippines. He was 49,
| to prove that he not only resigned
! without blemish. but that his reslg
| nation was regretted by his suDeriors.
| SaTtOris then became convinced, say
his friends. that the influence of mem
bers of the Grant side of the family
was responsible for the prejudice agains
him at the State Department. TheS
had made it understood, he believed
that they did not particularly desire
the rule that gives members Of the fam
ily of the Presidents of the United
States the preference in the diplomatic
service to work to the benefit of Sar
tOris.

OOLLNER INSISTS
ON RECORD VOTES
Offers Amendments as
Means to Make Senators
Declare Themselves.

Senator. Dolliver, not discouraged
by the uninterrupted series of defeats
which has marked his efforts to get
wedge into the Finance Committees
support on the wool schedule, today
started a new line of attack. follow
ing the conclusion of Senator La Fol-
lette's speech at the night session
last night.
Mr. La Toilette had taken occasion
to pay his respects to what he term
ed the betrayal of public confidence
in the Republican party by giving
upward revision when downward re-
vision was promised. He declared that
President Taft could not have carried
four States in the whole Union If
the people could have known what
sort of a bill would be before the
Senate al this time and what the at
titude of Congress would be toward it.
Senator DolI' er busted himself
this morning, oaering and insisting
upon record votes on a series of
amendments to reduce the duties on
various lines Of wooden goods. Con-
cerning the first. which was typical
of the rest, he made this statement:
This amendment seeks to reduce the
rates on articles made in part of wool
and in part of cotton or other sub
stances. so that the duty shsll be as
sessed on a more reasonable basis. This
amendment should commend Itself to
those who love antiquity and are de-
lighted 10 follow the ieadings of emf

! Mills bill II came then as a part OF
the substitute bill prepared by the
Finance COmmitte, and was sustained
most ably. in the report which accom-
panied that BILL by an argument which

uss for Scotch water power.

TIC growing industry of extracting
2lulainum has stimulated the search
for water-power in the British Isles,
Because the extraction of aluminium
Is so expensive that only low-cost
power can be economically employed.
Ia this respect Scotland, with its
mountains, is coming to the front. The
water power at the falls Of Foyers, in
Scotland, has hitherto been the largest
in Great Britain; but now still larger
