Two substitute bills for the House
bill to extend the franchise of the
Honolulu Rapid Transit and Land Co.
to July 1, 1850, were introduced by the
public lands committee.
The first one provides for the ter
mination of the franchise at any time
after January 1, 1880, by act of the
Legislature, when the company shall
be paid by the Territory of Hawaii, or
any political division thereof within
or including the Island of Oahu, the
cost of it's property less depreciation
subject to any then existing indebted
ness. It is a similar provision to that
in the Hilo street railway franchise
just passed by both houses.
1t is further provided that after
July I, 1917, two and one-half per
centum of the gross transportation
receipts Of the company shall be paid
to the treasurer of the City and
County Of Honolulu, the first payment
to be made in January, 1918, and
thereafter annually in January.
The act shall take effect by procla.
nation Of the Governor, after its ap.
proval by Congress, and when he shall
have received notice from the COM
pany that it has accepted the terms
thereof by majority vote of all it's
shares outstanding; provide that ac

steam cars between Diamond Head
and the western boundary of Kalihi,
and between the sea coast and a line

DUE NEXT WEEK, HAS
1903 IMMIGRANTS ON BOARD

The Territorial Board Of Immigra-
ton, in it's desire to place the labor
ers who are coming here in the Or
teric, due about April 13, has written
to number of plantation managers
asking their advice on certain points,
and giving them information concern
ing the immigrants coming.
She has on board 1903 persons, of
whom 1877 are children of working
age, 341 children of school age, or
thereabouts, and 1872 infants. There
are about $40 Portuguese and $50
Spaniards. The Board does not thing
1t necessary for plantation represen-
tatives to come to Honolulu to seek
employees, as these can all be allotted
here by the Board which wants to
place the people where they will be
most contented, and, consequently,
most useful. TIL eimmigrants will be
dispatched just as fast as possible to be
plantations requiring their ervices,
and there will be no unnecessary de-
lay at this end.

these allotments in the most satisfac-

ALASKA LABOR WITNESSES
APPEAR IN CIRCUIT COURT

With the finding of indictments by
the grand jury against Frank B. Craig
Baltazar and Alyarado in connection
with the recruiting of laborers for
Alaska, the police court proceedings
against the three defendants termi-
mated and nolle prosequis were ent

determine what price the ditch COM
pany shall pay to the territory for
the ease of government lands through
which the ditch can run. The com
mittee points out that the measure is
advisable and that the taxes in the
districts affected should show an in
crease of 100000 a year as a result of
the enterprise.
There are about 5000 acres which
can be watered by the new ditch. In
cidentally there are now about 1900
acres fit for homesteading.

and fruits that can be raised in Ha-
waii, the periods at which these veg
etables and fruits are produced in
mainland districts that would compete
with Hawaii, the cost of the trans
portation, the methods of packing and
distribution.
Such man could probably judge
from a personal inspection of the diff.
ferent districts and the preliminary
information gathered whether any
particular crops now raised in Hawaii
could be marketed on the coast, and
if so at what seasons and under what
conditions.
with expert advice upon these
points the Board would be in a posi-
ton, in cooperation possibly with 9TH
er departments of the territorial gov
ernment and the federal experiment
station, to inform and instruct home
steaders just as to what crops to
plant, at what seasons, and to assist
them inmarket ing those crops with
reasonable assurance that they would
be profitable.

The change in the Sunday service
is made in accordane with a long
declared folicy Uf the Postmaster
General, who sought special legisla-
tion on the subject and has issued in
structions calling for the most liberal
possible treatment of all employees in
connection with Sunday work. In the
session Of Congress which ended last
month a section was added to the law
providing that in cases where Sunday
work is necessary, compensatory time
shall be allowed on week days, to
those who do the Sunday work.
There is a very strong sentiment
throughout the country in favor of
closing postofIices on Sunday" says

The Board also desires to know the

So far of course, the Board has not
had time to receive replies to the
questions propounded.

Some Steel News

The report of untitled orders of the
United states steel corporation as of
Feb. IS last, which will be made public
next Friday, IS expected to show an
increase of about 100000 tons. compar-
ed with the total untitled tonnage re-
ported at the close of January.
These figures are based upon the
semi Official statement that new orders
placed with the Steel corporation last
month averaged at the rate of about
1000 tons daily, approximately L.
900, 900 tons for the period of twenty
four business days.
The corporations output of finished
steel during February was around 10
per cent more than in January. and it
is figured that the shipments in Feb
ruary were around 10000 tons daily,
hence the gain in orders ahead would
be one-fourth of the total of new bust
ness received by the mills, or as above,
in the neighborhood of 100000 tons.
This showing in new orders, which
exceeds that of January by nearly 5000
tons daily, has been a surprise to off,
Gals of the Steel corporation. In the
latter part of February Chairman e. H
Gary estimated the months average
between 5000 and 5000 tons less than
1t turned out to have been.
The corporations tonnage of untitled
orders on Jan. 81 last was 3.1lo,91v, anu
if the February figures turn out as ex
pected the total will be advanced to
around 3,361.oo0 tons. just little
below the aggregate of untitled orders
on the books last August.
officials of the Steel corporation are
now of the opinion that the railroad
rate decision will not have such an
adverse effect as was at first expected
The railroads of the country are said
to have postponed a great deal of buy
ing that was absolutely necessary
pending the interstate commerce COM
missions ruling. There is little doubt
but that their orders for material now
would have been materially larger had
an advance in their tariffs been allow
ed, but their requirements are even
larger now than when the purchases
were curtailed months ago, so it is
logical to believe that they will find
means with which to cover all urgent
| needs and that these are large enough
to give the steel trade a fair business
| more business, in fact, than 1t had in
1910.
