PETITION FREAR
FOR ROBERTSON
Business Men of Honolulu Urge
Candidacy of Lawyer for
Federal Bench.
(From Sundays Advertiser.)

A petition, signed by over forty of
the most prominent business men of
Honolulu, was presented to Governor
Frear yesterday in support of the can
didacy of A. G. M. Robertson for the
position of second judge of the federal
court. The text of the petition sets
forth in the strongest terms the con-
fidence of the signers in the integrity
and ability of Robertson.
What action is expected of the Gov.
ernor as result of this petition can.
not be stated, nor can it be stated what
the Governor will do in the matter.
He has already said that he has en-
dorsed Mr. Robertson.
However, it is known that a private
cablegram, based upon the petition
and its presentation. to the Governor,
was sent yesterday to Attorney General
Wickersham, setting forth that the
business community is strongly in
favor of the appointment of Robertson
to fill the vacancy on the federal
bench.

To Build Observatory at Edge Of
Volcano as Part Of College
of Hawaii.
THE GOVERNOR is INTERESTED
Plan Must Be Taken Up Officially
With Federal Government
at Washington.
(From Sundays Advertiser,

The prospects of Hawaii's obtaining
a volcano observatory, to be located on
Kilauea, are considerably brighter, ac-
cording to a statement made by Gov.
ernor Frear yesterday, and it will not
be surprising if, within a comparative
ly short period, well-equipped insti-
tuition at the edge of the great pit
will be in readiness to record the ca.
prices of Madame Pele. If the obser>.
atory is built, it may be as part of
the College of Hawaii.
Governor Frear has of late had con-
siderable correspondence on the sub.
ject with Professor Jaggar, who orig
mated the scheme some months ago
when he was here. At that time Pr,.
fessor Jaggar thought that If Hawaii
would agree to do its share toward
maintaining the observatory, the money
for the construction of the buildings
and for the equipment AS well as for
part of the running expenses could he
obtained in Boston.
Bur when Professor Jaggar got back
East he did not find financial matters
in as good shape as he had hoped. More
recently, however, the financial horizon
has cleared somewhat, and Professor
Jaggar is reasonably certain of being
able to obtain good share of the
money he needs for the observatory.
But, writing to Governor Frear, Pro.
fessor Jaggar says he thinks Hawaii
ought to do little more than was at
first proposed, and he wants to know
what the prospects are.
Governor Frear has plan. he pro-
posed to Professor Jaggar that it might
be possible to use for the observatory
part of the federal appropriation for
the College of Hawaii. Whether or not
this can be done is question that will
have to be put up to the Washington
authorities. Governor Frear, while in
Washington, tentatively suggested the
use of portion of the Federal appro-
priation made for the College of Ha-
wall. However, the matter will have
to be taken up officially before It is
known what can be done.
Governor Frear, however, has sug
gested to Professor Jaggar that this
might be the solution of the difficulty,
and Professor Jaggar gladly agrees
with him. He has gone so far as to
send to the Governor an agreement, to
be signed by Hawaii S chief executive
if he finds that the money can be di-
verted as proposed.

FIRE CONTROL
WIRE GOING IN
Military Telephone System to
Connect Lookout With
the Big Guns.
LINES TO GO UNDERGROUND
Observatory Station Will Direct
Firing at Pearl Harbor by
Telegraph.

Control of the firing of the battery
of big mortar guns in Battery Harlow,
Fort Ruger, and the 14.inch monsters
to be installed on the s0.000ton en-
placements at Fort DeRussy, Waikiki,
is becoming fact, for the wires lead
ing from the Diamond Head crater
tunnel to Fort DeRussy are now being
laid.
Black conduits, similar to those used
by the telephone company, were receiv-
ed recently from the mainland and
transported to convenient points along
the route between Ruger and DeRussy,
via Kapiolani Park. A gang of men
is now engaged in digging the trenches
from the Fort Ruger end alongside the
Diamond Head road, and another gang
will be started at the Fort DeRussy
end in few days. The route of the
conduit is through Kapiolani Park.
The conduits will be laid in cement
and the wires protected in every way
so that the fire control win be undis-
turbed.
The center of all wires will be in
an observatory station located in a
gallery in the apex of the lip of the
crater which faces toward the ocean,
and is directly back of the
Diamond Head light. The fire of all
guns will be directed from there. By
means of table of figures and sheets
marked off in squares the officer in
charge of the observatory can direct
just how each gun of the mortar bat
terry or each of the big 14-inch mon
sters shall be fred. He will telegraph
to Fort Ruger to have this or that
mortar fred, at just what elevation
and in exactly what direction, and the
projectile is expected to fall directly
upon the deck of an approaching hos
tile warship.
The wires lead from the observatory
along the inner side of the crater aud
then through the tunnel to Fort Ruger,
and those for DeRussy are carried
along in the conduits.
1t is said also that the guns to be
raised in the naval park on the Wal
kiki side of the channel, and the great
batteries at Pearl Harbor will aso be
connected with this same fire control
in the Diamond Head crater, by cable
conduit which may be laid close to the
shore.

WILSON DIDN'T
TELL HIS BOSSES
Kept His Side Contracts Strictly
to Himself - Board
May Act.

''The first knew Of any side Job Of
Johnny Wilson was when 1 read il in
The Advertiser said Supervisor Quinn
yesterday. Mr.. Quinn is chairman Of
the road committee, directly under
which Wilson is supposed to be and
from which body he takes his orders.
Consequently when the chairman of the
committee was not acquainted with the
road supervisor little rake.off from
county contracts 1t is natural to sup.
pose that he forgot to inform his en-
ployers that he was not putting in all
the time for which he draws his salary.
81 suppose the report is correct. -
continued Quinn. "I haven t seen Will
son today, or Emmeluth. / guess this
must be the day they look the Kahana
job over.
"Just what the road committee may
do about it is up to the majority, of
course. Personally do not think that
Wilson has any right to divide up his
time. He gets good salary from this
district and ought to attend to the
road business of this district, not be
going into partnership with any road
contractors.
Undoubtedly the board of super.
visors should take the matter up. Z"
Mr.. Quinn stated that a number of
business men, who have suffered from
the condition of the downtown streets
during the recent muddy weather, had
come to him yesterday with the sugges-
ton that Wilson ought to be fred forth
with. The chairman of the road COM
mittee, after The Advertiser had made
things clear to him, remembered that
there were days when Wilson could not
be found when he was wanted. He
has come to the conclusion that on those
days the employee of the Honolulu road
district was earning his five per cent.
and his fifty month by being out of
the district. On one occasion Quinn
had to go and attend himself to the
matter of having the street crossings
made passable, owing to Wilson Is alb
eence.
Wilson Comes High.
Wilson is being paid salary of $3.50
month as road supervisor. lie iS get
ting fifty dollars month as supervis-
ing engineer for Mr.. Emmeluth, the
contractor. He draws FIVE per cent. of
a $4,000 contract as the contractor s
partner. This works out to about $500
a month, at which rate it pays to be a
Democrat.
NUNS the Word.
A noticeable thing about the disclos-
ure made yesterday morning in The Ad-
vertiser is the fact that neither of the
afternoon papers as much as mentioned
the affair. Why the great silence9
Emmeluth gave out the information
upon which this paper based it's asser-
tons and the fact is beyond dispute.
In the meanwhile, where is Johnny

lulu road district or is he working for
