LAST ECHO OF

POSTAL BANK

The defunct Hawaiian postal savings

cabled correspondence between Cover,

tion to a great extent.
Two years ago congress passed a bill
providing that all the morey left in
this fund that was not claimed, or re-
garding which tue ownership was still
unsettled, should revert to the Terri
tory. Those two years are now up and
one last effort is being made to clear
up the accounts.
This is almost a hopeless procedure
owing to the miserable bookkeeping
that was done in connection with it,
but it has so far been Strengthened

the bank by almost 10000 depositors,

.HILO HORSE RACE
WAS VERY GOOD
Broderick's Mare, Copit, Won
Double Event-oIIie Shipman
Took Cowboy Race.

At Hilo last Monday the race meet
ing was pulled off satisfactorily, except
for the fact that one or two jockeys
had falls from their mounts, and, Opio
pic, the well known native rider, was SO
drunk that he fell OFF his horse after
he had won a race. That Je:ry BroG-
erick had luck to win with Copit with
drunken jockey up there is no gain
saying.
The little mare that ran so well at
Kahului last Fourth, again showed a
taste of her quality, and she won two
good events. The one mile race for
named horses was captured by Copit
and the three-quarter mile sprint also
went to Broderick g nomination.
There were six races run and the big
crowd enjoyed the sport; seventh
race that was on the program, and
which was for ponies, had to be aban-
doned owing to chapter of accidents.
A false start was the beginning of the
trouble and then, later on, one jockey
fell off his pony, and the judges called
| the event off.
The full results of the races were as

of the local postofice from Third As

One thing is certain; it will mean
that much of this money order business
will be thrown into the hands of the
banks and express companies, or that
these corporations will raise their rates
to agree with the new schedule of the
postoffice.
Another thing is that a little more
of the money now spent in sending mil

'The department of public instruc-

that directly assumes control of chill

School Buildings Rotting.
One of the most emphatic reports
read at the meeting was that of Matron
Sadie G. Sterrit of the Girls Industrial
School at Palama which is about to
be moved to Moiliili Her report will
be an incentive to the legislature to
pass the necessary appropriation for
the new buildings for according to her,
tho floors are so rotten that those on
them are liable to fall through them
at any time.
The surroundings, says the matron,
are depressing morally and physically
and subject the girls to tuberculosis.

MAY APPEAL TO
GOVERNOR FREAR
Five Thousand Chinese to March
on Capitol to Protest Against
Consul.
(FrOm sundav,s AdHertiser.l

That the movement against the Chi
nese consul, Liang Kwo Wing, is one
of the most aggressive protests against
retention in Office is evidenced by a
new plan which a large number of Chi
nese residents hope to put into effect
in the near future.
Following closely upon the mass
meeting held at Aala Park, Friday
evening, when the protests against the
consul were voiced in strong language,
and even threats against his life were
uttered in the crowd, is the determine
tion to carry their case before some
official of the Hawaiian Islands whom
they believe may have some influence
with the Chinese powers that be.
If the plans work out a crowd
of FIVE Thousand Chinese will march to
the Capitol and request an audience
with Governor FTear and request that
he, as the official who desires peace and
order in the Islands, notify either
the state department at Washington
or some Chinese official, that the rela'
tions between the consul and the Chi
nese people have become so strained
that his instant removal is absolutely
necessary TO preserve peace
Greatly Incensed.
Some of the leading Chinese have
learned that the middle class of Chi
nese have become so incensed against
the consul, and their minds have be.
come SO inflamed because they have
been reported to the Picking govern
ment as revolutionists and as such ia
be practically under the ban of the I'm.
perial government, that they fear mob
violence.
They feel that if mob violence is re
sorted to that the Governor may find
it necessary to call out the militia tc
preserve order, and rather than have
such an exigency actually arise, they
believe the time has arrived fol some
local official to take hand in the mat
ter.
May March on Capitol.
HChinese to the number of five thou
sand will march to the capitol, and pos
sibly the number may be even great
err said prominent Chinese yester
day.
feThis question between the consr
and the Chinese people is one not tc
be considered lightly. 1t is the mosi
serious that has ever confronted oul
people and they have become deeply in
censed against the consul. They dom
want to resort to violence or to mass
meeting proceedings, but as each mai
from China brings new evider ,e thai
the consul is actually swearing away
the lives of innocent people here, they
feel that they are being ground dow
by this consul. He has classed Owe
eighty per cent of the people as revolu
tionists. While that would make many
smile, yet no more serious charge
could be made against Chinese, partieu
larly if they wish to revisit Chin, o
they have relatives there. II the gov
eminent wishes to make tn Chinese
here uncomfortable, they will com
mence system of persecution agains
the relatives in China, all of whom arr
innocent of any wrongdoing.

Why not a malihini princess7
The suggestion was made yesterday

cussing the progress of the work fol-

"Why not9"

the gentleman in question, "a day OF

The matter has been brought TO the
attention of Miss Dawson, chairman of

OPPOSE PANAMA
FORTIFIGAT!ONS
Congressman Who Believe Canal
Should Be DefenSeIesS
Getting Busy.
By Ernest G. Walker.

(Mail Special to The Advertiser.)
WASHINGTON, December 90. - It
seems unlikely that this congress will
vote to fortify the Panama Canal. The
opposition thereto has been growing.
1t is taking the form of a popular pro-
test in some quarters, Senators and
representatives have had small oppor.
tunity yet to measure its significance
and force. However, it will probably
avail to postpone action.
President Taft, an advocate of forti.
flying, remarked not long ago that moth
ing would be lost necessarily if the
work was not begun forthwith. The
Notifications can be built any time--a
year from now or ten years from now.
This knowledge will encourage the eff
forts to postpone.
Representative Tawney, chairman of
the house appropriations committee,
who was the pioneer dissenter in con-
gress from the President IS proposition,
has been flooded with letters and tele-
grams of popular approval over his
course. He has had several invitations
to make public addresses on the sub
iect, and has accepted one from the
New York Peace Society, OF which An,
drew Carnegie is president.
Opposes Fortiacations.
He and Representative D. j. Foster
of Vermont, chairman of the house com.
mittee on foreign relations, will be
speakers at a meeting of that society
January 10 next. Mr.. Foster, too, is
one of the opponents of fortifying, and
may bring out of his committee a reso.
luton asking the house to declare itself
on the subject.
The Vermonter holds that the United
States is already committed by treaty
to the naturalization Of the canal. He
believes that we must, of course, police
the canal, md in that connection could
well keep three or four warships in that
immediate vicinity, perhaps two at each
end of the canal.
"That would be definite duty for our
ships of war; says Mr.. Foster; "now
they have no such duty anywhere"
Senate Indifferent.
The senate seems to have paid little
attention to the matter thus far, but a
number of opponents have sprung up
in the house. Ex-Speaker Keifer Of
Ohio is one of them. Representative
E. w. Roberts of Massachusetts,, an
earnest advocate of submarine boats,
came At early with a suggestion that
a small fleet of these craft Mt either
end of the canal would suffice.
Petitions of protest from peace so
eieties and others are coming down
upon congress, The matter is being
made an issue. The opposition is aided
by the desire of the house leaders to
make record for economy Of expendi-
lures at this session and TO saddle the
expense, If it must be incurred, upon
the next Democratic congress.
