ATTORNEYS SCORE
BELT ROAD OUTFIT
(FrOm Wednesdays Advertiser.)

NcIom w eunebudy AuNeELibtI.l
Before Judge Whitney in circuit
court yesterday morning Attorneys
Prosser and Anderson scored the men,
bers of Loan Fund Commission for the
way they had treated John Wilson in
regard to the belt road contract at
Heeia. Prosser was most bitter against
Marston Campbell, who, he claimed,
made Andrew Adams his tool in this
instance. Anderson said that the mem
bers of the commission had failed abb
solutely in their public duty.
Prosser started the argument in be-
half of Wilson, dealing with the condi-
tions of the matter under trial. The
things members of the commission had
done and what they had failed to do
came in for lot of attention. Ander.
son handled the law points of the case.
'These commissioners have failed
absolutely in their public duty, perhaps
by the tendency of their private lives
they have mistaken their duties, but
they have proved unworthy servants"
he said in closing.
Argument was completed and the
case rested in the hands of the court.
Judge Whitney took the whole matter
under advisement, saying that it was
such an important question he wanted
time to consider it in all its aspects, and
he would render decision later.

Bill Before Congress Recognizes
Superior Rights of Own
Shipping.
STRIKE AT THE RAILROADS
Threaten to Impose Double Tolls
on Vessels Controlled
by Them.

WASHINGTON, January "a FREQ
passage through the Panama Canal for
American vessels and large toll on
ships of foreign register are the main
provisions of the Bradley Canal Bill
which is now before congress.
The feature of the bill is clause
inserted by purely shipping interests
imposing on American ships owned or
otherwise controlled by railroad COM
panies, tolls just double those imposed
on foreign vessels. 1t is the first step
in the inevitable war between the
transcontinental rail carriers and the
marines routes via the canal.
The tolls to be assessed against for
eign ships are set at maximum of
dollar and a quarter per ton. This will
make the maximum on the railroad
owned American vessels two dollars
and a half, figure almost at the pro-
hibitive point.

Has Announced.

Governor Works on Reply Despite
Expected Arrival of the
Commissioner.
Especial Cable to The Advortiser.)

WASHINGTON, January 2S.-An
evidence of the thoroughness with
which the President proposes to in
vestigate conditions in Hawaii, espe-
cially in relation to the charges brought
against Governor Frear by Delegate
Kalanianaole, is the fact that the Presi'
dent will send Especial commis-
sioner'' to the Islands in place OF the
special agent at first talked of. Presi'
dent Taft yesterday announced that he
would nominate the special commls'
sioner within few days.
Kuhio Delayed.
The Delegate will not sail for Homo
lulu as soon as he had expected owing
to the impossibility of securing trans
portation accommodation on any
steamer leaving for the Islands within
the next sixteen days. 1t is probable
that he will take passage on the Lur-
line, sailing from San Francisco on Feb
ruary Z. WAbhEh.

should Be Speedy.

"The position of the majority of the
members of the harbor commissioners
is that this work be handled as speed
lily as possible.
"That wharf be built that will at
all times be under the absolute and
complete control of the board of har-
Dor commissioners.

cit has been suggested that the ma
jority of the beard of harbor COM
missioners are treating the Hilo Rail
road Company with an unnecessary
amount of suspicion. These sugges-
tions are wholly unwarranted. It is
very true the majority of the board of
harbor commissioners have approach
ed the Hilo wharf proposition with a
great deal of care, and have given the
matter much study, but as about a
quarter Of million dollars of public
money will be invested in this enter
prise by the time the wharf and ac-
cessories are completed, too much care
can not be given such project in any
phase of its preparation, and for critics
of the majority of the board to de-
scribe business care and 'precaution' ,
as suspicious is altogether unfair"

From WillOughby.

In acknowledging your request of July 9th, cannot help but say there has been no inquiry of more interest to me personally, coming to the may ors desk, than the proposition you are not vitally interested in.
 This very question was before us some fifteen years ago, when the first suburban electric line reached us from Cleveland, twenty miles away, a city of over half million people Most of the business men were against it, feeling that their business inter- ests would be ruined l had carefully investigated this subject in the East, and went over the entire situation in my own mind and concluded that it was absurd to fight the step, which we must all acknowledge to be one of progress, no matter whom it effects or whom in particular it might hit. concluded that we would obtain indi- rectly a greater benefit from the street railroad than we would be in jured directly. No modern improve ment has ever come to our village which has so much improved condi- tions and brought more people to us than the suburban railroad. 1t chang ed our trade in kind, but improved it in volume. We country merchants cannot do business along the same old lines, but improving in our methods of merchandising and keeping uo with modern methods of promotion by pub licity, opens up greater and broader field for an increased volume Of busi- ness.
 The street railroad has tendency to take from a small town the large purchases, but it educates the people at the same time to make purchases of smaller articles oftener, and if the country merchant deals more large lv in the advertised brands and lets his people know it, there will be no

 Will Be battle-ground.

Chicago, July Ex-Governor Wood row Wilson will make his fight for the presidency in the East. Although no definite action has been made to that effect, it is practically settled that the general headquarters of the Democratic campaign will be in New York.
 Chicago will have provisional headquarters. Just how soon t will be established C.. who will be in charge has net yet been determined either. Those matters are all to be agreed upon by William F. McCombs who was elected chairman of the National Committee today, and Gov ernor Wilson himself.
 The whole trend of the things done by the National Committee indicates that the big fight is to be made in the East, in New York, Massachuset, S. Connecticut, New Jersey and Dele ware. The selection of officers and picking of members of the executive committee as far as that has proceed ed carroborate that view.
 The off cers chosen today were only the secretary and sergeant-at- arms. The others are to be named by the executive committee when that body shall meet. That committee according to authority given it to- day, is to Joe named by Chairman Nc 1 Comb and will contain not less thar nine members, five of whom will b. members of the National Committee.

(By Michael J. Murphy) Official trainer of the American
 Olympiad team.
 Stockholm, July 15-We finished the athletic sessicn of the Olympic games today with all the victories that I expected. We won the 1,600 metre race with little opposition in Thorpe, the wonderful all-around athlete from the Carlisle, Indiana school, set record the decthlon, which will not be equaled in long time.
 I am personally we'll pleased that Sweden won the two events we lost today.
 In the boys under my charge this year. had the greatest squad of ath- lets ever assembled uned one flag. It made a finer showing in the track and field events than any other team yer sent over by the United States. We won sixteen first places, to say nothing of the seconds and thirds. Let me say that many of our boys who took second and third places de- serve as much credit as those who came first. in the 800 metre run, for instance, a small blanket would have covered the first three Americans. We had four men in the 1,500 metre who were practically as good as the winner. Thus it was in nearly all events.
 The Marathon men in particular are in fine shape and nearly all O them could go out within week and run the same race over again.
 The, team breaks up tomorrow Some of the boys will return to Amer ica at once. Others wil remain herr

 It has always been our aim and effort, as advocates of the Free Bridge. to state the facts as we know them rather than make claims bnd assertions at random that could not be sustained by the facts and fig Ilres.
 While we have always granted the right of anyone to differ from us as ko the practicability of the Free Bridge yet we had hoped that they would make no eXtravagant statements in their enthusiasm to back up their argument that could not be sustain ed by the facts in the case. However the Taxpayers Protective Association has recently published the following Btatement:
 "The railroads entering Fort Smith have decided that the bridge is not Strong enough for railroad traffic and hat they would build another bridge bf their own, and not use the coun- tvs bridge at all.'
 In order to ascertain whether ol hot this statement was correct, we wrote Mir. R., P. Allen, chairman oi the Fort Smith free bridge district His reply is as follows:
 Mir. Aliens Letter.
 'T am in receipt of your letter making inquiry in reference to our Ire bridge, and am indeed surprised b know such false reports with re- terence to our structure is being cir culated. The facts in the case are as ollOws: We have the largest, the Ptrongest, .hd the best constructed bridge in the entire Southwest. This conceded hy every engineer and ailroad official including the presi- lent by both the Frisco and Iron Mt !. R. Companys. The bridge is built heavy enough to carry the heavies1 Fngne that is now manufactured Oul ngineers Messrs. Wadell & Harring- on of Kansas City, who are conceded b be the greatest bridge builders il America, say that our bridge is strong though to take care of the hcavies rafflc for fifty years to come. It is qulpped with two electric car tracks pne steam car track, two wagon ways md two foot passages and is siXty-tw6 eet wide. We have made no con ract with the railroad companies III Q this time simply because the Iror ht. k. R. Co.,, has contract witt me Frisco R. R. Co.,, to use theil bridge and they have to pay then we've thousand year for running One passenger train daily over thei bridge. This contract does not ex plre until nineteen sixteen at whicl tlme they assure us that they will us' our bridge, and may possibly do st sooner The Frisco bridge here whicl was built twenty-five years ago hal peen condemned for heavy engines and the president of their road in lormed me that they would have t spend about three hundred thousand doiiars in building the bridge witt heavier steel.
