HONOLULU. June 1s.-Friday next,
at midnight, the bodies of a score of
the dead kings, queens and high chiefs
of Hawaii will be taken from the
vaults of the royal mausoleum in
Nuuanu valley and placed in a new
resting place, built under an appro-
priation of the last legislature The
new vault, which is marble lined and
elaberately fitted up for the dust of
departed royalty, is in the royal ceme-
terry, alongside the graves of the dead
members of the Kamehameha dynasty,
which will be undisturbed.
The Princess Kawananakoa whose
late husband, Prince David, was the
last to be entombed in the mausoIeum,
IS expected to arrive from San Fran
cisco Fridayeto be present at the cere-
mony, which is to be carried out in the
presence of and under the directions of
the former Hawaiian queen Liliuoka-
lani. There is possibility that Prince
Kuhio, delegate to congress, will also
be here for the occasion.
The ceremony of removing the bodies
is to be a strictly private one, with
only one white man present. This is
to be former Governor -Cleghorn. whose
late wife, Princess Likelike, sister of
King Kslakaua. was buried with the
other chieftains and chieftesses to be
moved. The affair will take place
at midnight, at which hour only. ac-
cording to ancient Hawaiian custom,
is it fitting that royal dead should be
disturbed.
"A central place in the new vault, over
which marble shaft is to be reared,
has been reserved for Queen Liliuoka-
lani. Prince Cupid. if he arrives for
the ceremony, will be able to inspect
the niche left for his remains when
he departs this life
AT one time, when the proposal to
provide another resting place for the
bodies was under discussion, there
threatened to develop a lively row be-
tween the two dynastic families, the
Kalakauas and the Kamehamehas. The
kamehamehas, however decided that
their dead should lie where they are
leaving the Kalakauas in full pos
session of the new royal vault

Especial Correspondence of The Call
HONOLULU, June 19.-The federal
grand jury has been busy duringSthe
past week investigating the status of
the recently arrived immigrants from
Manchuria, concerning whom Samuel
Gompers of the American federation of
Labor alleged that they We're brought
here in violation of the alien contract
labor law
This phase of the question has al
ready been investigated by the grand
jury, which has forwarded an official
denial to Washington. The matters
under consideration recently have been
the anarchistic proclivities of the agi-
tators among the new comers, it being
the intention of the authorities to de-
port one or more of them if the proof
they believe they have can be sub
stantiated.
At present, although each steamer
from the orient brings from so to 200
Russian laborers, there is absolutely
no Russian question" With the ex-
ception of a small percentage the Rus
SLAMS are at work on the plantations
around Honolulu, giving satisfaction to
their employers and being themselves
apparently satisfied. There are about
10 Russian agitators in jail, serving

GOWN OF BARRISTER
ADOPTED AS MOURNING
Regulation Dress introduced
When Queen Anne Died

The London Law Times points, out
that the silk gown of the bench and
bar was originally adopted as a form
of mourning at the death of an English
sovereign. On the death of Queen
Mary in 1884 the silk gown was in
troduced as mourning. and, having
been found more convenient and less
troublesome than the regular dress
then worn. has since been continued.
The late Sir Frederick Pollock is said
to have expressed an opinion In refer
ence to the ordinary costume of the
bar that the bench and bar went into
mourning at the death of Queen Anne
and have so remained ever since.

Collection Cannot Be Made Automatic

The Controller declares that all state
rsiness should be conducted by approprl-
ate departments OF government; that thSIe
would seem to be no valid reason why tns
proceedings to determine this tax ShOuld
not be begun and concluded i'll the Con-
troller's office: that while the collectloh
of the tax cannot be made automatic, as
in the case of certain other taxes, ne pc
lieYes the excessive cost OF Its colleclion
Is not inherent In the tax itself, but is IN
cidental to the system under which the
proceedings are now conducted; ana Ihal
the cost may be very materially reduced
ity OF saving to the state oS not less
than $150,000 a year. The proposed plan 20
effect this saving is set forth il detail. IL
does away with the requirement Tor attof-
Controller, except in cases of appeal and
nonresident estates. He proposes that the
position OF Salaried appraiser now existing
in a number of the counties be extended
throughout the state and that the duties
of appraiser and attorney be combined.
Under the head of Tax on Transfers OF
Stock the Controllers conclusion is that
the largest loss to the state occurs IN the
celled, required by law. He states that
Ii is his purpose Ito pursue this matter
with such thoToughness that the Oppor-
tunity heretofore aVailed of by unSCrupu-
have once been used, will not exist" In
this purpose he anticipates cooperation
by the different exchanges. He also pro-
poses TO collect the tax which is not now
being paid on many shares of stock trans
feTred in the course or reOrgantzatlonS
consultations and the purchase OF con-
trolling interests, and says that recently
in a single month transactions subject TO
a tax of $4,000 have been discovered on
which no tax has been paid He gives
reasons for the reorganization OF the force
of examiners and recommends several
amendments TO the present law.
