CONDITIONS ARE BAD
IN HAWAIIAN ISLANDS

Honolulu, July 2, via San Francisco
July ll.-In his annual address to the
st. Andrews Episcopal church last
Sunday Bishop Henry b. Restarick
made some remarks concerning moral
conditions here which have been the
occasion of considerable comment
The bishop urged that the eonyocation
appoint a special committee to inves-
tigate and report on moral conditions
and social service. and said:
There are moral conditions in the
islands which, when they are known,
stagger one. The records of the ju-
venile court in this city as to the
number of girls brought before it illus
trate what I mean. From country
school teachers and others | learn of
conditions which are distressing and
unspeakably bad. | am told frequently
in a town that it is no place for a
girl and Roman priests who know
conditions have freely told me things
that, if published, would shock the
community"

SENATOR RElTERATES STATE
MENT THAT TARIFF MEAS
uRE is NO BURDEN.
"lsolated Cases of Increases of Rates
Are Taken and th, Entire Bill Con-
demned," Is Statesman's Declara-
tion, He Insisting That on an Av-
erage, All Are Made Eer>ficaries.

Washington, July 11.-Senator AL
drich reiterates his statement that the
tariff senate bill does not impose ad
ditional burdens upon the consumer
'Isolated cases of increases of rates
are taken and the entire bill con-
demned because of these" said Mr.
Aldrich. 1T is usually the case that
if the section of the country which
has found fault with one schedule
would consider the transfers on ar
ticles to the free list, and compare
the increases with reductions that
have been made, that section would
see that it had been made a benefic-
iary by the general revision"
Expert Talks. ..
General 7. s. Sharretts, the veteran
tariff expert, who has been a mem
Der of the board of general appraisers
in New York for many years, de-
clares the senate bill will show 2
per cent reduction from the Dingley
law and a material reduction from the
house rates. General Sharretts, who
is a democrat, is assisting the confer
enco committee. He performed the
same office fol, the democrats when
the Wilson bill was in conference.
What Payne Says.
Representative Payne said tonight
the rates OF the house BILL judged
from the standpoint Of the general
public, are materially lower than
those of the senate bill. Mr.. Payne
pointed out that hides, tallow, iron
ore, licorice extracts and other ar
ticles, of great Importance to the con-
suming public, We're transferred to the
dutiable list by the senate; While al
ligator skins, radium, certain spices,
cocoa, oleo stearin and miners safety
appliances were the most important
articles placed on the free list by the
senate,
1T is unfair to compare the two
bills by figuring the ad vaorem rates
on each" said Mr.. Payne.
Members of the house tonight point
ed out that coal, wire nails, scrap
iron, shoes and leather, cotton and
wool manufactures, petroleum, pota-
toes, rough lumber, lead paint, struc-
tural iron, cutlery, zinc bullion, pig
lead and other articles of general con-
sumption were increased over the
house rates, while dressed lumber,
gloves, hosiery and certain iron and
steel products were tho principal SEN
ate reductions Of interest to the pub
lic The conferees hope to conclude
their work by the end of next week.
In the meantime both houses will
hold sessions every three days. The
house will meet on Monday and the
senate on Tuesday, but having no
business to transact, viii Immediately
adjourn.
Leaders in both houses are hopeful
of finally disposing of the tariff be-
fore the end of the present month.
