REQUEST FOR CREDENTIAL;
They Suspend His Privileges Until he
Complies---Attack on Sheriff Jarrett
Regarding Hackstands---Fin-
ances of 1911

of the occasion when he had brought
the matter up, relative to the damage
to the streets from hack stands and
the hitching of horses beside the curb.
Murray said he asked the sheriff
some time ago for a list of hackstands
but had received no satisfaction.
Mokumaia, a visitor to the meeting,
rose and complained that he could not
get a stand for his hack, although he
paid a license. Japanese hackmen
were granted hackstand privileges. ut
seems as if was being fined for be-
ing a citizen" the aggrieved hackman
exclaimed.
Murray moved that the sheriff be di-
rected to provide stands for hackmen
now without such privileges.
Low spoke of the narrow strips of
pavement on King street which the
traffic had to take, as the Rapid Tran
sit Company refused to pave its dou-
BILE track right of way.
Arthur Kaahawinui, a hackman left
without a stand ever since the X l.
at King and Nuuanu streets was abol-
ished, added bitter complaint to that
offered by Mokumaia
Amana made speech of some
length on the subject, bearing on the
invidious distinctions made between
licensed hackmen with regard to
stands.
Mayor Fern blamed former Super
visor Jim Quinn for leaving out the
X L when putting through the hack
ordinance. 1t seemed to him the worst
thing in street congestion was caused
by automobiles, whose owners wanted
the whole of the streets With oaths
he asked why the Rapid Transit Com
pany was not compelled to pave its
portion of the streets.
Murray was glad some others were
looking to the sheriff. The matter was
not up to the board. Hackstands
should be placed on the side streets.
Low saw politics in tho business, in
tended to hurt the Republican party
Nevertheless, it was Mcclellan, 1.-THE
lone Democrat" who seconded Mur
rays motion.
The motion carried. 1t was statej
by Sheriff Jarrett, when told of the
boards action, that he gave Murray {
list of the hackstands some time ago
Murray did not deny this, but said he
must have lost the paper.
An Overcrowded School.
Kalihiwaena school, the biggest o
all the modern school buildings in Ho
nolulu, has outgrown the school at
tendance of Kalihi suburbs. This fac
was brought to the attention of tn,
board by a letter from Leveritt II
Mesick, president of the Kalihi I'm
provement Club 1t was stated tina
the enrolment was 1877 greater thai
year ago. The letter suggested tina
the three-room and two-room building

Expert Field and Sheriff Jarrett
were made the targets for oratorical
practice at the meeting of the Board
of Supervisors last night. When, a
few weeks ago, the request of the
Chamber of Commerce to permit Mr..
Field to investigate the accounts If
the city and county was granted, Su-
pervisor Low had no support for his
suggestion that the experts creden-
tials should first be submitted. At
later meeting a motion was passed
to request Mr.. Field to show his Gre
dentials. Last night his reply was
received, in which he said in effect
that his credentials might be seen by
anyone interested, at his office. In
return the board voted unanimously
to suspend his privileges of inspec-
ton of the financial system of the
city and county until he produced his
credentials.
Sheriff Jarrett was attacked for al
legged failure to readjust the hack
stands and to prevent the spelling Of
streets by horses left standing in GER
tain spots. 1t came out in the dis
cussion, as if new discovery, that
hack stands are regulated by ordin-
ance and. consequently the board was
itself responsible for anything wrong
about them.
Experts Credentials Demanded.
H. Gooding Field, the financial ex-
pert employed by the legislative com
mittee of the Chamber of Commerce
replying to a request to produce his
credentials, wrote saying he had sub
mitted them to that committee as
well as to Mayor Fern. However, he
stated that his Credentials, consist

II. Spalding, president, informed the
board by letter to the clerk that
Mayor eFrn had called upon Mr.
Field and expressed himself as being
perfectly satisfied with the creden
tials shown to him by Mr.. Field.
Mcclellan moved, seconded by Muir
ray, that the privilege of inspection
before granted to Mr.. Field be sus
pended until he brought his creden

In 1850 the BAN" was executed and
two years later BAHIA Ullah proclaim

He and his followers were exiled

Juarez in Suspense.

Ell Paso, Tex-Monday night. the
rebels had occupied Orozco Hill, three
miles west of Juarez. opposite the Ell
Paso smelter. Hundreds of camp
fires were visible and horses were
led down to the river and watered.
It is apparent that the attack will be
conducted SO that there will be no
firing into Ell Paso II there is an at
tack.
A report arrived from Canutillo,
Tex, says that 800 Mexicans in that
town were threatening trouble and it
was asked that troops be sent.
A small detachment of Company X,
Texas state militia, engaged in guard
ing the Ell Paso electric light plant,
was fired upon by persons concealed
behind box cars and said to be Mexi-
cans. Maxim silencers were used on
the guns and more than twenty shots
were fired.
