The Carriage Road.

As 10 the point that the licensees
should be compelled to build carriage
road to the wharf, the speaker said
that it was 1900 feet from the land to
the point where the wharf would be
located; that the water was about if
teen feet deep throughout this dis
lance; and thai the roadway would be
eight feet above mean tide. This
would require either a rockfill twenty
three feet high, at least fourteen feet
across the top, with a correspondence
wide base; or concrete pile structure
the cost of which the speaker was in
formed, would be between $40. 600 and
100000. This expense would be a
crushing burden upon the already ex-
pensive wharf which would have IN he
built. the estimated cost Of which vopld
be between 100000 and s3oO0 600 The
speaker argued that if the general nnb-

Will Be in Lieu Of Lighterage.

To induce private capital to pat up
the money to build a wharf il was
necessary to make the wharf at least
self-supporting and five cents ton
wharfage would be necessary to accom-
plish this object. Moreover, NEARLY
every principal shipper Of freight into
and out Of HilO, with the exception Of
c. Brewer & Co. with full knowledge
of the conditions. had expressed entire
willingness to pay the wharfage sug-
gested: and there was good reason for
their doing so, for they would thereby
escape the payment of hghterage.
which is now fifty cents ton.

The Five-Cent Charge.

Discussing the points made by the
directors, Mr.. Thurston said, in sub
stance, that, as to the objection to the
nve-cent wharfage charge, the reasons
for wanting this provision were that
experience had proved that the two
cents a ton dockage charge to ships
was insufficient to pay for the upkeep
of wharves. the total receipts of the
present Hilo wharf, which cost S130, 1000,
being only about $4,000 year, while
repair bill had been paid this year
amounting 10 approximately S25 900.

HiIo. what the main points OF the
license were-stated that 1t was very

was sought or desired by the railroad
company: that il was TO be joint en-

Railroad Charges.

As to the objection that the railroad
might charge exorbitant rates for haul
ing freight from the wharf, the speaker
said that rates were entirely under the
control Of the interstate commerce
commission. which could be invoked by
the smallest freight shipper in Hilo
without expense TO himself.

The Storage Charge.

AS to the objection to paying for
storage of freight on the wharf, that
was simply the usual custom elsewhere
and was desired more as a means of
keeping the wharf clear than as a
source Of profit.
