WILSON GETS A
PIPE CONTRACT
Believes This viii Help Him In
His Suit Against Loan Fund
Commission.
CFrom "wednesday = Advcrtlacr.)

(From Wednesday Advcrtiscr.)
Though John Wilson was refused the
$4,000 contract foi work upon Eve
miles Of the Oahu belt road by the
loan fund commission, he has just been
given one by the department Of public
works for tho laying Of water pipes
on lower King street FOR $4,000 and the
contract has received the o. X. of
Auditor Fisher.
Mr.. Wilson, whose suit to compel the
loan fund commission to grant him the
belt road contract on the ground that
he is the lowest bidder is now pending
in the supreme court, cites the King
street contract as evidence that the
commissions contention that no was
not responsible" is not we'll founded
and that il is inconsistent to refuse
him one contract on the grounds of
responsibility and then give him an.
other.
The commission, in refusing to let
the contract 60 to Wilson, claimed that
while he might have been the lowest
bidder he was not the lowest "respon-
sible" bidder. Questioned ON this point
yesterday afternoon, Superintendent
Campbell of the public works depart,
ment reiterated the original contention
of the loan fund commission. There
was quite difference, said Mr.. Camp.

$4,000 one. 81 have said right along
that Wilson was responsible enough on
minor contracts, he said.
Mr.. Wilson win begin operations
upon the south King street contract
Just so soon as the pipes arrive for
the work.
Speaking of the o. King Of con.
tracts MS presented to him in his office,
Auditor Fisher explained that his en-
dorsement meant nothing more nor less
than that he certified that a sum suf.
ficient to cover the amount of CON
tract was set aside upon his books.
This did not necessarily mean that the
contract was good, bad or otherwise;
but only that as certain payments be-
came due from time to time by the
proper performance of the contract the
moneys would be there to meet the pay.

NATURALIST GOES WHALE HUNTING
WITH A MOVING PICTURE MACHINE
(From Wednesday Advertiser

(From Wednesdays Advertiser.)
"There she spouts" will have far
different significance in future. In the
old days of the big whaling fleets the
cry from the crow IS nest was the signal
for the boat 3 crews to let fall and get
away with harpooners ready in the
bows. In future the cry VIII be signal
for the moving picture man to out
films and at them, so to speak.
The innovation is fathered by Profess
sor Roy C. Andrews, representative of
the Natural History Museum of New
York. Professor Andrews passed
through Honolulu yesterday on board
the shinyo Maru on his way to Korea
and new kind of whale hunting that
would make what Kipllng calls the

LUMBER PRICES TO
REMAIN AS THEY ARE

HilO is in fear that the prices of
lumber are to be aeroplaned. The rea-
son given is that the lumber vessels
visiting that port are not many and
with greater demand than before lum-
Der dealers here are inclined to believe
that the prices for ordinary sized lum-
Der will be boosted from one dollar
TO dollar and a half per thousand
feet, while for the better and larger
grades the price may go up as high as
five dollars additional.
Levers & Cooke, the largest lumber
dealers in Honolulu, when asked if
they had heard anything of the posi-
BILE rise in lumber prices at Hilo, stat
ed that it was news to them and they
could not quite understand why the
prices should be increased.
D. Swain of Levers & Cooke stated
that freight rates had gone up q little
and while hefstofore, rates per thou
sand feet were 1915, the present rate
is SO, but he can not Dee why that
should affect prices in Hilo, at least,
so materially as a $3.50 to IS boost.
He stated that last August there was
revision in the prices Of lumber, but
the revision did not affect prices very
materially. There was an increase in
some qualities and pieces and a reduc-
ton IN others 20 that the average made
tho prices about the same.
IA Tar o. h. .as aware 40 raise In
prices was contemplated.

Konia, both direct descendants, not far

an estate pledged to the support of the
Kamehameha Schools, the greatest edu-
cational force among the Hawaiian race
today. She was the wife of Charles r..
Bishop, the San Francisco banker.
Queen Liliuokalani herself, accom-
