Representative Hitchcock of Ne
bTasSa, who has lately returned from
abroad, in an interview takes what
is a more conservative view of the stu
alton. He says, in substance, that
many Englishmen would ike to strike
Germany before that country gets
more Dreadnoughts, but that he does
not believe the blow will be struck,
and thinks it unlikely England will
venture into great war merely be
cause it sees another nation rising
rapidly into commercial greatness.

CITY IN
SESSION

There was only one meeting of the
Board OF Supervisors yesterday after
noon and only one Board of Super
visors met, although there might be an
impression to the contrary since there
have been published reports of things
done which were not done.
Salary and payroll demands wera
ton in the January pay of the Super
sors themselves, a reduction Of be-
tween six and seven dollars per mead
which the expert bookkeepers had
reckoned, estimated and calculated as
covering three days of this year be-
fore the present Board took Office, anG
this, Notwithstanding the notorious
fact that the three days for which the
Supervisors are locked included only
half a business day, for two days OIL
the three were legal holidays, New
Years Day and Sunday, and Saturday,
between the glad New Years and the
Day of Rest, is always considered a
| half-holiday.
Since the matter did not affect the
welfare of the public at large, only
having to do with the Supervisors
themselves and the Mayor, the mayor
and the Supervisors did not consider
it an issue of immense importance
to anybody but the bookkeepers and
let it go at that in order to save trou-
BILE to the bookkeepers and Auditor.
His Honor, the Mayor, declined to
put a motion to adopt the committee
report, stating as his reason mat he
thought it was not necessary to vote
the payment Of salaries fixed by law,
but since the majority wished to pass
the demands as a whole the motion
was put by a Supervisor and passed
the appropriation requiring salaries

TEST ON
TRENT

with City and County Treasurer
Trent's refusal to pay out cash on
warrants in favor of public employees
over whose appointments there Is
dispute, comes a glimpse of light on
the heretofore dark situation of the
contest between the Mayor and the
Board of Supervisors in the matter
of appointments.
Tommy Cummins, road oversoer,
and the men under him, and others
whose pay is refused because their
employment is contested, are inclined
to welcome the attitude of the Treas
urer sindicative of a quick settlement
in court of what is to be the correct
procedure and as to whose appointees
are to win out, the Mayors or those
of the Supervisors. Trent is con-
sidered to have acted impartially and
well.
The City Attorneys and other law
yers are today engaged in formulate
ing a course of court procedure, and
on Monday there will be asked to be
issued effective orders to take Treas
urer Trent into court to show by what
authority he holds back the pay oil
the road overseer and others.

was sighted at an early hour this
morning and berthed at t6S Hackfeld
wharf shortly before . U'OIOsh. She

strange to say, had a very agreeable
passage, the storms of the past week
or two not having struck her The
Mongolia will resume her voyage at
o'clock this afternoon for San
Francisco.
The center OF interest, from the
shore standpoint, as the vessel near
ed the wharf, was Mike Fishers
crack baseball team, stopping or
here to show the All HawaiYs how TO
play the game.
Outside of the team there were NO
first-class passengers for Honolulu
and the through list was exceptional
ly light for the Mongolia.
The American Hawaiians steamer
Mexican, Captain TappIey, reached
her dock shortly before the MONao-
liza. She also had a rough trip of II,
meeting with heavy winds most Of
the way. Captain Tappley states that
he Is not late, as has been supposed,
as he is on his freight schedule.
Three days mail came BY TIE Mexi-
can, she having sailed ahead OF the

BAND
WORLD FAMOUS

1t is SO very seldom that such an
accomplished band of musicians comes
to Honolulu, that the people of our
city should make a point of turning
out in body to hear the Filipinos.
This band is an organization of mu-
sic-loving men who are of race of
natural musicians. They think of no.
thing but their music and its express
sion through their instruments. That
is one reason, and good one, why
they were selected as the finest band
in the world at the St. Louis Expo
sition.
A portion of this same band played
here some years ago at the Alexander
Young Building and made such an i'm
preston on the music lovers Of Homo
lulu. Since then, the band has been

pose of vouching to the Auditor.

take the place of that which just ex-
pires, for $4,000, on City and County

Supervisor Logan reported that the
Kaimuki Improvement Club was COM
planning of Japanese carting sand off
the roads and the matter was referred
to the Road Committee.
The Mayor handed in three vetoes.
one disappearing the ordinance abol-
ishing various boards and committees
and offices, the Mayor saying that II
was an attempt to repeal wholesale
and without consideration of conse-
quences the legislation of two boards
OF Supervisors extending over three
and a half years. and a direct attempt
to thwart the legislative will of she
people, and that the ordinance was
destructive. Ordinance No. he vetoed
for the reason that it looked to him
like trying to have a government by
committee, contending that by this
ordinance three standing committees
are given almost absolute control OF
public service and expenditure. He
also vetoed the resolution which seeks
to legalize all the actions Of the
Board, thinking it impossible to make
valid what he deems invalid.
Major Dunning, committeeman OF
Lincoln Day celebration, asked that
the fire department be allowed to join
the parade. Chief Thurston was au-
thorized to parade his department
with the understanding that a proper
reserve be kept on duty for emergeu
cies.

day evening next.
