Half a million dollars worth Of bright.
new street cars for Washington and three
score additional conductors will be the
fruit of an order issued yesterday by the
Interstate Commerce Commission. It IS
understood the trailers will be dragged up
and down Pennsylvania avenue and F
street no more, and the National Capital
will be adding one more item TO its at
fractions. officials OF the companies are
reticent pending consideration of the COM
missions action.
1t is ordered that the cars shall be sub
1ect at all times to the inspection of rep
resentatives Of the commission; and when
a car or train is stopped by accident or
otherwise, and is in danger of being over
taken by another car or train, the con-
ductor OF other employe Of the company
shall Immediately so back 300 feet carry
ing with him a RED flag by day and a Ian
tern by night, and stop the following car
or train. On the Mount Pleasant line be-
tween Ninth and F streets northwest, and
on the Fourteenth street line there shall
be operated a sufficient number of north
bound cars TO maintain a Roadway OF not
more than two minutes between the hours
of 4:5O and $50 p. m.
Suburban Lines Regulated.
Under authority vested by the Commits
sioners motor cars operated by the Wash
ington. Alexandria and Mount Vernon
and the Great Falls and Old Dominion
lines may be equipped with some form of
pilot, SUCH as is commonly used on inter
urban cars, said pilot to have a clearance
OF not more than five inches above the
rail and the front end of the pilot not TO
extend beyond the furtherest outside limit
of the bumper The speed limit of the
cars on both lines has been set at ten
miles an hour within the city limits.
The Washington. Baltimore and Annspo-
lis line. which is to run from Fifteenth
and H streets northeast to the Treasury
been practically denied their request to
substitute the use of pilots for tenders
and wheelguards.
Newest Equipments.
BY the adoption of this new regulation,
this line may be equipped with similar
pilots. in addition with the front auto
matte or platform-operated projecting
pickup tenders, in lieu of the automatic
wheelguard. 1t also provides that there
shall be a clearance of not more than
five inches between the rails and the
lowest portion of the pilot adopted.
the provisions of section 1 are the cars
operated by the Washington, Alexandria
and Mount Vernon and the Great Falls
and Old Dominion lines.
1t was explained by the commission that
the regulation requiring a separate con-
ductor for each car operated In the Dis
trict Is a precaution, adopted as an addi-
tional safety as a consequence of the vast
number of street railway accidents oc-
curing in the last year
The discrimination against the Wash
ingtOn and Baltimore line of the use Of
the pilot in lieu of the fender and wheel
guard has been somewhat criticised by
Gen. George Harries, vice president of
the Washington Railway and Electric
Company.
Gen. Harries stated that he doubted
the validity of the ten-mile speed limit,
in view of the fact that the law. and
not the commission, fixes the rate of
speed.

Kauai Railway Company Votes
to Put Out 100000 of
New Securities.
ENTIRE AMOUNT SUBSCRIBED
The Extension of Garden Island
Railroad on Large Scale
Is Contemplated.
(From Wednesday Advertiser.)

A half million dollar bond issue was
voted yesterday by the Kauai Railway
Company at meeting of the represen-
tatives of the corporation, and the en-
tire issue was Immediately subscribed
by local financial interests.
This is the biggest financial transac-
ton that has taken place in Honolulu
for some time, and means the extension
of the Kauai railway ON large scale
The new securities are 1920 yeal
bonds, bearing six per cent interest
The issue has been subscribed by the
Hawaiian Trust Company, the Bank OF
Hawaii, Alexander & Baldwin, Mrs. s
G. Allen and Willard E. Brown.
The Kauai railway owns Port Allen
which is the only outlet for the sugar
of the McBryde and Makaweli planta
tions The railroad runs through the
McBryde plantation up to the Kala
heo bomesteads, but it is planned tc
extend it beyond and in other direc
tions. Recent transactions in which the
plantation and railway interests have
been concerned pointed to renewed ac
tivity on the part of the transportation
company, and this has come in the form
of the big bond issue and the proposed
extension of the line.

"HAWANANS ARE
LAZY, But WEAK"
What John G. WooIIey Says of
the People of These
Islands.

WASHINGTON, December 17.-John
G.. Woolley, superintendent of the anti
saloon league of the Hawaiian Islands,
today appeared before the senate com
mittee on Pacific Islands and Porto Rico
in support of bill introduced by the
late Senator Johnson of North Dakota
to prohibit the sale of Intoxicating llq-
uors in Hawaii. He made reply to
the memorial of the Hawaiian legisla-
ture which asserted that the people of
the Islands were capable of deciding
for themselves whether they wanted
compulsory prohibition. Mr.. Woolley
said that majority of the people senti-
mentally would be for federal legisla-
tion prohibiting the sale of liquor if
it were not for the opposition aroused
by liquor interests through their circu-
lation of a report that the effect of the
passage of such bill would be to say
to the world that the Hawaiians were
an unenlightened race. The Hawaiians
were described as ga great big beau,
tiful, lazy people, but weak" He said
they would prefer to be sober, but could
not resist the temptations offered by
the stronger whites; that the common
beverage was "dago red, a concoctioI
of cologne spirits and red wine, which
could be bought for fifteen cents 9
gallon wholesale, supply sufficient tC
keep two families drunk for two days
Mr.. Woolley spoke under the auspices
of the Reformers Conclave now meet
ing in Washington.

'DOCTORED GIN
IS BEING SOLD
Bottles Are Being RefilIed With
Deadly Mixture and Sold by
the Wholesale.

Nearwhisky is not the only brand of
poison which is being dispensed under
the guise of a beverage in this Terri
tory. Phoney gin of the most virulent
kind is also being passed out, and If
anything the preparation is more dead
ly than the compound" rectiier Is
whisky, according to those who are
making Investigations.
Palm Tree is the favorite brand of
the "dopers," and some wonderful mix
lures are being dispensed. But whereas
the whisky venders are keeping within
the pale of the law as far as is known,
the peddlers of doctored gin are frank
ly monkeying with fire.
The plan of procedure followed by
those who dispense imitation gin is
totally different from the rectifiers >
course. The latter obeys the letter of
the law, but the former is a plain
counterfeiter. The fake gin man gets
hold of bottles of gin, extracts the
contents, which he disposes of in small
lots at fancy figure, and then fills
Ine DOUUle with SOME llQulu ufe guar
anteed to kill in short order.
So cleverly are the bottles reflled
that none but an expert can detect the
fraud, and great quantities of this stuff
are being unloaded from somewhere.
The oriental saloon keepers are hand
| ling most, if not all, of this imitation
gin, and the prices at which they quote
| the standard Palm Tree are less than
the iobbers can buy it in wholesale lots.
However, the ignorant patron of the
cheap saloons cares nothing about the
cheapness of the stuff so long as he
thinks that he is getting his booze.
Some of the samples of neargin which
have been secured from time to time
are dreadful. To the intelligent person
there would be no chance of selling the
mixture, but the half drunken dive
patron knows little and cares less about
what he drinks and the result is more
work for the undertaken. 1t is claimed
that the imitation gin is more deadly
than the rectifier IS whisky.
Another little scheme is being work
ed by some of those who handle "com
pound" whiskies to fool their custom
ers Flasks are labeled with the name
of some well-known brand of whisk,
: and are then filed with compound.
: These are then marked with a rubbe
stamp. mislabeled.o Some times th
stamp is legibe and some times it i
not.

GENERAL BARRY HAS
FINISHED HIS WORK

Major General Barry, u. S. A., COM
manding the department of California,
has so far concluded the work mapped
out by himself during his stay in Homo
lulu, that he is ready to return to San
Francisco on the steamship Siberia to-
morrow. His investigations at Leile
hua concerning the site for the con-
struction of the permanent brigade post
were thorough and while it is under
stood he has pretty well settled the
exact location where the post should
be built, yet the announcement may not
be made until after he has thoroughly
gone over the reports and data at San
Francisco after his return.
Local army officers, while having lit
tie or no knowledge of the general Is
ideas on the subject of the site, feel
| certain that General Barry will lose no
time in presenting his findings to the
department at Washington, as 0,00C
were appropriated last year for com
mencing work on this great post, where
| possibly 1000 men may some day be
stationed.
General Barry has been the guest OF
Major and Mrs. Dunning at Fort
Shafter, during his stay. His aid, Cap
tain Ferguson, A. c., and Colonel Fin
ley, his chief of staff, have also beer
quartered at Fort Shafter.
Colonel Biddle, Engineer Corps, CHIEF
of engineers of the department of Cali
fornia, will return to Honolulu today
from Hilo aboard the United States
lighthouse tender Kukui, accompanied
by Major Winslow, Engineer Corps, il
charge of local army work. The off
GERS went to Hilo to inspect the Hill
breakwater.
