check, but the notes were not in
the bank, the cashier stating that
they had been sent to President

other notes and that they had been
forwarded by mistake but would
b. return ID a. once. He told the
same story for about ten days at
different intervals, and the notes
never matGrialiZcd until the First

demanded interest and payment Of
the same. At the time the cashier
of the Nye and Ormsby County
Bank was pleading that the notes
would be- returned to Nyc county,

IMPORTS OF POTASH

The recent announcement by the

discoveries Of large supplies Of

interest to statement prepared
by the bureau Of statistics, depart.

showing that the importations of
potash salts is now running at the
rate Of over million dollars

proximately 100000 since
1900. While these potash salts
enter the country in various forms
and thus under various names,
including muriatc of potash.
carbonate of potash. sulphatc Of
potash, kainit, etc, their agrrc.
gate import value in the nine
months ending with September,
1911, was $Il,50O, 900, against
about $7,000,0c0 in the CORES
ponding months of 1910, and q
little over 5000. 900 in the cor.
responding months Of 1909, thus
indicating steady and rapid
growth IN the importation Of this
class Of prodncts. Taking the
figures for fiscal years, the total
for 1911 was SD. 600. 600 compared
with less than $l2, 900, in
1910, less than S4. 600 OOO in 1oOo
and less than $1,000, 600 in 1890.
The principal classes of potash
salts imported into the United
States are, in the order of

OAHU-MAUI WIN FOR
APPORTI0NMENT PLAN

Although hard fight was looked for
over the apportionment resolution in
the house yesterday, the combination
of the Oahu Maui delegations was too
strong for the combined Hawaii Kauai
men, and the resolution as passed in the
senate yesterday, which is exactly the
same as that held up in the house, was
adopted by the lined up vote of seven
teen to thirteen.
Immediately following motion to
table the report of the committee of
the whole, made by Castle, was carried,
fourteen to- twelve; and for the satis-
faction of it Rice Of Kauai moved that
the concurrent resolution introduced by
Williamson be tabled, and the motion
carried.
The resolution as passed requests con-
gress to reapportion representation in
the Territory on the basis of the num-
Der of voters, instead of the citizen
population.

that the latest epidemic had been
stamped out by the quick action by
the board Of health.
The first case, that Of woman, was

man died in a house on the same lane,
but lower down, after a few hours of
sickness. His death is also asserted to
be due TO cholera. The six members
in his family were at once removed
to the quarantine station.
Doctor Pratt and the inspectors of
the board of health have taken the
names of all the residents in that
neighborhood and these will have to
report and undergo an examination ev-
cry day, although not quarantined

OVERRIDE GOVERNORS
VETO ON LICENSE

The veto by the Governor of the house
bill, No. 40, providing for an appro-
priatiOn of $4,000 to refund certain
license fees to merchants in this city,
was overriden by both house and SEN
ate yesterday. The house viii act on
the Governors veto of the refund OF
$4,000 to John Cummins today.
On the merchants refund bill, Shell
don, of Ka1ai, made the only argument
in favor of overriding the veto, which
was that the house the day before had
passed a bill to refund certain money
to two emigrant agents.
Rice, of Kauai, remarked that the
bad news had just been received that
the senate had sustained the Governor Is
veto on the belt road bill, so it would
be a good thing to override his veto
on the merchants refund bill. The
vote was 21 to 0.

RATI0NS FOR MOLOEAI
PATIENTS UNCHANGED

An effort was made yesterday to dou-
BILE the ration allowance for the pa
tients at the leper settlement on Molo-
kai in passing the resolution of Repre-
sentative Hale to make it 500 n year
with seventy cents extra a week for
groceries. This in addition to the reg
ular rations. The majority report of
the health committee, however, was
adopted and the rations will remain as
at present.
The committee report, which was
signed by all the members of the com
mittee except Hale, was as follows:
"This resolution asks that the ration
allowance of the lepers at Molokai be
increased from $40 to 500 per year and
an additional 20 cents per week for
groceries.
GAS both allowances mentioned here
in are far in excess of what the lepers
themselves prayed for in their petition,
introduced by Representative Fl. L.
Kawewehi and Incorporated in our gem
eral report already fled, we recommend
that this resolution be tabled"

The measure was attacked on its

to be only political soothing syrup, to
allay the suspicious of the country
that the Democrats are afraid of radi-
cally attacking the protective princi-
pies of the present tariff law.

Representative James M. Cox of Ohio
proposes to make naturalization of the

gram. He is expected to introduce a

take him in the neighborhood of four
months to complete and that during
this time he will not have much loose
time hanging around. He is doing a
great deal of his work from the Inter
Island steamers and what can not be
done from there will be done from the

He win only be sorry for one thing

changes were of minor Importance, but
two changes of interest were made.
The appropriations for the operation
