Rapid!lTransit Company
Refuses to Compromise

The Rapid Transit Company has re-
fused the proposal made by the sup.I
eIvisors last night to G. G. Ballen-
tine after their meeting to go ahead
with the paving of King street "un-
der protest" and will appeal to the
highest court at Washington.
This decision was reached this
morning as the result of a confer
ence between l.. Tenney Peck, C. G.
Ballentyne and D. L. Wilmington held
in the office of Mr.. Peck.
Yesterday evening after the meet
ing of the supervisors, it was discov.
cred that Mr.. Ballentyne was present
and Deputy Attorney General Smith,
who was also present as an interested
onlooker, suggested to Mr. Ballentyne
that the Honolulu Rapid Transit and
Land Co. go ahead with the paving

ing.
Mr.. Ballentyne was in favor of the
compromise and it was decided that
the supervisors would meet again
this evening and make formal ratif,
cation of the suggestion. and mean,
while Mr. Ballentyne would go ahead
end obtain the sanction of the direc
tors of the corporation.
There was no directors meeting
held today but Mr.. Ballentyne and
D. L. Wilmington, attorney for the
transit company, met in the office ,ot
L. Tenney Peck, president Of the cor
poration, and talked the matter over
It was then decided to reject the sug
eested compromise, and it was fur
ther decided that any further com
promising would have to be done le
tween the Attorney Generals offc,
and Mr.. wilmington.
After the meeting, Mr.. Wilmington
and Mr. Ballentyne had a long con

ference with Acting Governor Mott
Smith and Attorney General Lindsay
in which the corporation representa-
tiyes explained their position.
According to Mr. Lindsay, the car
company bases it's objection on the
ground that the kind of pavement
specified in the judgment is a pat
ented article.
1t is on this ground that the transit
company will take its appeal to Wash
ington, although the matter will be
further discussed and the judgment
, rendered will be re-read by the dis
putants this afternoon
I'VE are not objecting to paving

this morning, but we are objecting
to the kind of paving specified.
The proposition is whether we
have to bury our tracks in several
inches of solid concrete or not. We

Those friends of "Absalom, the
houn' dawg of Honolulu" who have
been looking forward to viewing the
portrait of the noted canine Hamlet
which ]. w. Thompson, the animal
painter, was supposed to be executing,
will look in vain. There will be no
portrait and "Absalom" is to blame,
according to Thompson, who tells his
story of his failure to immortalize the
features of the melancholy and ancient
bloodhound.
1T is true" said Thompson yester-
day, "that at the request of my friend

MUCH ORATORY
IN SITE CASE

Legal technicalities and lawyers
arguments were the order of the day
in the trial OF the Mahuka site case
today. Only one witness, Richard
Cooke, was put on the stand. He
made the statement that, although
the Hawaiian Trust Company is ask
ing the Government to pay about $751;
COO for its property on Fort street,
the Judd building was sold in 1910
for only 100000.
The legal argument that began aft
er Mr.. Cooke had been excused was
along the line of the damages that
the various respondents would suf
fer If they were required to move
their fixtures from the premises oc
cupied by them. This is considered a
delicate question and called forth
much oratory, accompanied by the
citation of numerous cases decided by
various courts.

Let Judges
Handle All
Tax Appeals

Owing to the difficulty encountered
by Treasurer Conkling in procuring
men to sit upon the tax appeal board,
he is formulating a plan whereby in
the future, the judges of the circuit
court will sit and pass judgment up
on all tax appeals, thus doing away
with all possibility of fear or favor
influencing decisions.
Mr.. Conkling came to this decision
this morning as the result of six
weeks of pleading with refractory citi-
zens who would not serve upon the
tax appeal board. AS a preventive of
a. repetition of this state of affairs an
other year, Mr.. Conkling intends to
submit an entirely new plan OF Great
ing tax appeal board.
Instead of wasting weeks in at
tempting to find citizens willing to
serve on the tax appeal boards, the
Territorial treasurer intends to seek
legislation for turning the whole mat
ter of deciding appeals over to the
circuit court,
AS the judges are appointed by the
President for term of four years
and hence in position to act uninfiu
enceG by outside conditions, they
would be able to adjust all Difficult
