BAILEY RESIGNS
THEN DOESN'T
RESIGNS AND wrTImRAws MS
RESIGNATION VERY
QUICKLY.

WASHINGTON, March 8. - Senator
Bailey Of Texas threw surprise into
the senate yesterday by presenting his
resignation to vice-President Sherman,
adding the second surprise by with.
drawing his resignation as soon as the
Presidents proclamation calling an
extra session of congress was made
public.
The Texas senator's reason for pre-
sentiug his resignation was the pique
he felt at the attitude toward him Of
his fellow Democrats and the snubs he
is alleged to have received in the re.
cent Democratic eaueuses, when his
claim to leadership was not recognized.
His request to be allowed to with
draw his letter Of resignation came
within an hour after the President 4
proclamation. His letter of resignation
sent at the same time to Governor Col
quit of his State has also been with
drawn.

HOUSE CHEERS HIM
CIenchsd Fists and
Challenges in
the Air.

WASHINGTON, March g. Tho
sixty.Hrst congress came to an end yes
terday amid scenes of extraordinary
confusion and excitement.
In the house, just as the session was
ending, Representative johnson Of Ken
lucky, stung into anger at ruling from
the speaker, engaged in wordy war
with the chair, refusing to be called
to order or to address the chair and
the members who attempted to inter
fere in parliamentary language.
elf it were not for your gray hairs
l would challenge you to come outside
and dare to repeat the insults you have
offered me here" he shouted at the
speaker, advancing with clenched fists
toward the rostrum.
Speaker Cannon, bristling with rage,
jumped to his feet and advanced to
meet the belligerent Kentuckian, while
excited members rushed between the
two to prevent an exchange of blows.
Struggling in the hands of friends,
the speaker roared defiance Of the
younger man.
"You needn't let my gray hair BIO
any bar to anything that you or any
other member Of this houses wishes to
offer,'' he yelled.
At this the house arose and cheered
wildly for the Old Man of Danville.
Commissions and Omissions.
The session just closed has accom-
plished some important legislation and
failed to complete much other work.
All Of the appropriation measures were
passed, including three millions for
canal Notifications. Two battleships
were provided for and the codiAcation
of the federal laws was ordered,
Among the measures that failed were
the Canadian reciprocity agreement, the
ocean mail subsidy, the provision for y
permanent tariff board, the general PEN
sion bill, statehood for Arizona and
New Mexico, the plan to increase post
age rates on magazine advertising and
the election of United States senators
by direct vote. No action was taken
on the Pinchot-Ballinger reports.

.GAS?ARRI FOUND THE
HONOLULU CUISINE GOOD

SAN FRANCISCO, February "a
Many trials and fluctuations awaited
Madame Emma Calve yesterday when
she arrived here on the Chiyo Maru
from Honolulu. The diva was spared
none of the ordeals provided by Uncle
Sam for distinguished travellers when a
stowaway is detected by medico with
suspicious rash.
The opportunities OF the immigration
inspector were peculiarly rasping to
the songstress. The purser had refused
to take the responsibility of setting
down the diva's age at $780," although
she made the suggestion in writing. He
left the age space blank. The immigra-
tion inspector, with careless glance at
the diva, set down "a y and Calve was
about to protest when he asked her
name.
She insisted that it was Madame
Emma Calve. After listening to her
story he insisted on making it Mrs.
! Gasparri, and with tragic mien and
many sighs the diva submitted.
This did not end the trials of the
songstress. She had to be vaceinated
along with the other passengers, al
though she pleaded that after having
crossed the ocean in regal comfort in
the most luxurious suite of the steam
ship, she should not be incommoded
merely because an immigration commits
sioner suspected that dangerous germ
| was lOase aboard
In her rooms at the Palace Calve
busted herself with knitting. 81 am NOT
suffragette, she said, tand have nc
sympathy with the movement. I am
very bourgeoise. My tastes run to
darning and cooking. I am very good
cook. In fact, I am too particular about
nv husband IS wishes to allow any one
to cook for him. My whole desire is to
please him. .
Gasparri smiled at this compliment
and when Nine. Calve said that it was
impossible to get anything good to eat
in the Far East, Gasparri corrected that
the cuisine of the Honolulu hotels was
very good. The diva acquiesced.

SENATE HuRRIEs TO
PROVIDE EXTRA CASH

With hardly a word of debate, the
senate yesterday passed third reading
of house bill number twenty-eight, pro
viding. for an appropriation of $4,000
for the use of the board of health in
its sanitary crusade in the city. The
bill makes the amount available as
soon as the Governor has signed it and
made it effective.
An amendment was inserted in the
original bill providing for an extra
$4,000, making total Of $4,000 for
the use of the board of health, although
1t is understood that the extra sum
will be devoted to the building of a
erematory at quarantine in place of
the one now in use, which Is reported
to be almost burned out. The bill with
the amendment was returned to the
house for approval.
Two senate bills were reported adj
versely upon by the Judiciary commit
tee. One, s. B. No. o, providing for
the filing Of wills and Parliamentary
papers with the circuit court instead
Of the supreme court, as at present,
was laid on the table on the ground
that there was no place in the circuit
court for keeping such valuable docu-
ments.
AS for senate bill number sixteen,
which prohibited county attorneys from

charge of the ship, and was. informed
that a schooner had run into the ten
der. Keriger went into the pilothouse
and rang a slow speed bell and put the
helm hard aport, and then saw a green
light ahead. He stopped the ship and
waited, and meanwhile had the search
light turned on, but could see no wreck
age or lights. Lieutenant Sahm, U. s.
N, who was passenger, was at his
side during this time. They saw the
Kaunakakai light in the distance, and
concluded that it must be the starboard
light of the schooner, SO the ship was
headed for the light. Later the other
light at Kaunakakai was made out, and
they then found that the light they
were heading for was not the schOon-
er's light, but a fixed light ashore.
They retraeed their course as closely
as possible to the spot where they
thought the collision had taken place.
Captain Keriger states that the in
formation given him by those on deck
was that the impact was slight; other
wise he would have laid around there
longer. He thought the schooner had
continued on her course, and therefore
took up his own course for Honolulu.
He states that the officer in charge did
not see the schooner until her sails were
right alongside.
Captain Keriger, however, feels that
Captain Sam shouldn't have put to sea
in such a vessel as the Moi Wahine.
Some wreckage from the Moi Wahine
fell upon the deck Of the Kukui, and
he has piece of it. It might have
been oak at one time, but he states
it is like sawdust now. 1t is a fimsy
piece, and he says Captain Sam
shouldn't have gone to sea in yes
sci of such fiimsy material. He states
that he is sorry the thing happened;
that he has never had an accident be-
fore during his long career at sea, and
be has been an officer since 1891. He
has asked the department of commerce
and labor TO hold an investigation and
fix the blame.
Second Officer Shaw says the first
thing he saw Of the schooner Was when
her sails came into view. He star
boarded the helm, but the schooner was
struck a glaneing blow. He immedi-
ately stopped the engines and called
the captain. He ran aft and saw the
schooner he says, heading In the wind.

find no sufferers for lack of poi. In
answer to a question he stated that so
far as the committee could learn the
Chinese poi dealers were not taking
their taro to the Kalihi mill to be made
into poi. The factory, he added, was
capable Of turning out about 10000
pounds of poi every twenty-four hours,

Misery of Dual Government.
owe are now experiencing the mise
ries of dual form Of government, de.
elared Representative Keliinoi, Sin the
shape of divided authority between the
Territory and county. Fortunately this
experience is coming to us at a good
time. What we want to do is to give
the health board power to do what is
needed at once. It will take six days to
pass a bill and I think we should send
this resolution to the board Of super
visors and request them to give the
necessary power and then we can pass
a proper law"
Representative Castle said it was true
that the board of supervisors had
right to pass an ordinance, but a cOnsti.
tutional question was involved and such
law as proposed would make the
supervisors merely deputies TO the board
of health, for all practical purposes
"What good is the board of super
visors in such an emergency Why, 1t
cannot spend more than 5000, even,
without advertising for five days. The
law gives them no further power"
added Castle.

Oppose More Powers.

A long discussion followed the read.
ing of the report by Clerk Woodward.
Representative Sheldon opposed any
amendment of the health law, as sug.
gested by the committee, stating that
the board of health had all the power
it needed TO enforce sanitary regula-
tons. He indicated that he though the
board had too much power now, espe-
cially in closing poi factories.
Chairman Long of the health com.
mittee explained that the city ordi-
nsnces had taken the power from the
territorial board of health and it was
without the proper authority from the
board of supervisors to do what was
needed.

''areat injustice. =

Representative Kanekoa was another
who opposed the part of the report ask
ing for more power for the territorial
board of health. He stated that the
board had done the people "great in.
Justice" in stopping their supply of poi
and that they really had no right to in.
terfere. Also he believed the commit
tee should have followed the instruc.
tions in the resolution introduced by
himself and shOnld have seen the suf,
ferers themselves and not the president
of the board of health.
Representative Kamanoulu, as a
member of the health committee, stated
that the place where the alleged suf.
ferers are confined is quarantined and
the committee could not get into the
camp, but were informed on good au-
thority that plenty of food was sup.
piled.
In regard to the manufacture of poi,
Kamanoulu reported that the committee
had found the Kalihi factory was in a
most sanitary condition and the govern
ment was prepared to furnish poi mp to
the limit.

The above are the statements Of the
commanders of the two vessels which
were the principals in the tragedy of
the sea in the channel between Molokai
and Maui on Monday night, when the
Kukui rammed and sank the island
schooner Moi Wahine and caused seven
men of the schooner to drown.
Captain Sam arrived from Lahaina
yesterday morning on the Mauna Kea.
He was in collapsed state physically
as result from his twenty hours ex-
posure in the open sea ON two planks
without drop of water to drink or
a morsel of food. He is about seventy
six years az age, and only because of
his hardy constitution could he have
survived that terrible ordeal. He was
so worn out even when he arrived yes
terday that he was rot asked to make
an official statement of the causes lead
ing to the sinking OF his vessel, but
on Monday he will make his statement
TO the collector of customs through
Hind, Rolph & Co., his agents. Captain
Sam was met at the wharf by members
of his family and was taken to his
home to be nuIsed back to strength

was on the starboard tack and he saw
the lights of a steamer coming down

the Moi Wahire Rss struck amidships
and she sank at once, there being no
time even to lower a boat. The steam
er continued ON her course and then
appeared to stop and the searchlights
were thrown around. Captain Sam
states he yelled for help, or &c he stated
it "we yelled for help,' although he
says little about his comrades and
probably knew little of what happened
TO them. He says the steamer was far
away when she began to throw her
searchlight. and then the Kukui stood

noon on Tuesday he was to leeward Of
Lanai and drifted ashore. He dragged
himself overland from Kaena Point to
