who were responsible for the evening s
entertainment and their plans were
among those which do not go awry.
Opening remarks by David Lawrence,

exercises on the roof garden and the
Hawaiian quartet followed him with
selections. Brother Farmer made an
address prefacing the solemn ceremony
of the burning of the mortgage which
was done by Lester Petrie.
Dinner was served on the second floor
and a card party was soon in progress
on the first while the roof garden was
devoted to dancing. Upstairs, each per-
son who attended the festivities was
given a number and later there was
drawing for prizes in which Brother
Melvin appropriated the gentleman s
prize and Miss De La Nux captured
that for the ladies. The ladies' card
prizes were won by Mrs. Ferguson and

A LITTLE LIGHT
IN MAYOR FERN
THINGS He DOESN'T KNOW
Thinks Mutual Telephone Co.
Lacks Franchise and Has
No Rights.

just about how much Mayor Fern
really knows about the telephone stu
alton IN Honolulu and how well ground
ed is his opposition to the company
is Indicated by the statement he made
yesterday afternoon that the telephone
company has no franchise and conse-
quently no right to operate.
1.-The franchise belongs TO the
Standard Telephone Company, said
the Mayor. 1.-THE Mutual company
has no franchise and has no right
whatever to operate here And yet
they want everything. -
Mayor Fern, although he is the heart
and soul of the fight being made by
a certain faction of the city and eoun-
ty government against the company.
evidently does not know yet that the
Mutual Telephone Company is in real
ity the Standard company, that the
Standard bought out the Mutual, took
up all the stock at par, though it was
selling on the market at below par.
and then took the name of the Mutual
Telephone Company. This is one of
the few things Mayor Fern does not
know.

khHULU| DEAL
IS AGREED upon
Terms Are Kept Secret, but Are
Supposed Favorable to
Territory.

The Kahului wharf deal has been
closed and awaits only the affixing of
signatures, but the result is not yet
for publication. The deal, which con-
to the Kahului railway company of the
right to build a wharf into Kahului
bay, has been contaminated in exec
utive sessions, and the provisions and
agreements contained therein are still
kept secret.
There has been pilikia over an agree
ment that will meet the approval of
both parties in the transaction, at
least three different drafts having been
drawn up before they met with the
approval of the legal representatives.
of the Territory and the railway com
pany.
The company first submitted a ten
tative agreement to the Territory
which was not considered favorable,
and Acknowledgement Hemenway drew
up another one, which was sent TO
Maui This, also, was not approved,
and came back with suggestions and
corrections. Some of the suggestions
were accepted and some were not, re-
sulting in the drafting of a new bill,
which appears to have met with the
satisfaction of the railway company.
One of the greatest sources of
trouble was in providing for an ap-
proach to the wharf through public
lands touching the shoreine from
whence the company wished to build
the wharf. This matter met with much
consideration by the attorney general s
department, and Hemenway puzzled
over official maps marked with bulk
head and pierhead lines, and did his
best TO decipher their meaning.
The clauses included in the agree
ment reached are thought to provide
for the right Of the company to build
the wharf. which Is to be used by the
government at fixed rental. and it Is
eventually. after the expiration Of a
certain time, to revert to the Terri
tory.
This practically gives the Territory
a needed wharf in the bay, the total
rental not going much over the cost
Of construction. and further gives the
use of it 10 them at once. whereas the
treasury could not at present stand the
figure al which the cost Is estimated.
