ty Supervisors this evening.
Under the leadership of Supervisor
Murray, the advocates of an armory
appropriation are marshalling their
forces. II is now claimed that the
Hawaii National Guard has proposed
a compromise in the matter of do.
nation and that according to Colonel
Jones. the Territory could rub along
on a sum of but $4,000 were the city
so disposed to make this gift.
Supervisor Low still maintains a
solid though lonesome front against
any presentation of municipal monies
ritory to build an armory.
I'VE have not the funds to make
any such donation" declares Low in
going over formidable list of items,
each covering some much-sought-after
municipal improvement.
Hundreds Of petitions have reached
this board, calling for relief from mis-.
cradle roads, inadequate school build.

turned deaf ear to all these entreat'
les. For what reason? Why, simply
a lack Of money.
"Now comes the territorial govern

blandly ask for $685. to help build a
fine armory for the National Guard

Fern Fears the "Five Hundred"
The minority membership on the
Board had sort of counted upon May
or J. J. Fern to veto the measure call

proposed armory building.
Fern has been politely informed
that should he veto any such resolu

pleasure of five hundred voters" said
one well versed county official this
morning.
Colonel Jones is understood to
have pointed out this rather startling
fact to His Honor and for that rea

"Will you veto any measure appro.

Manila shippingmen are much in
terested in the proposed around-the-
world voyage undertaken by a trio of
intrepid mariners who plan to tray
erse the seas in a very small boat.
The round-the-world ketch Can Do
has met with misfortune at the very
start of her journey and is now tried
up at lloilo, where it will remain until
next November, when another attempt
will be made to reach Borneo. Short
ly after leaving Olongapo, some six
weeks ago, she sprung leak, and, as
the crew were afraid to attempt the
journey across the Sulu sea while she
was in that condition, they put into
llollo, where repairs are being made.
In the meantime the three mariners,
Welsh, SiddOns and Snyder, have Sc
cured employment with the insular
government and are now surveying
on the Island Of Negroes.

NEW METHODIST BISHOPS.
Names of Men Likely to be Elected
at General Conference.


1t now seems certain that the
question of districting bishops will
get into the Methodist General Con-
ference at Minneapolis in May.
Nevertheless bishops will be elected
this year under the old plan. How
many new ones may be chosen no
one can tell, but there being many
vacancies it is stated the number
will be as great, perhaps, as at any
Methodist conference ever held.
Some say the number may reach ten.
even If no change be made in their
jurisdiction. Constitutional altera-
tions require two General Confer
ences, and at least six new bishops
will be chosen for work during the
plan.
The Rev. DR.. David G. Downey, cor
responding secretary of the Board of
Sunday Schools; the Rev. DR.. Homer
C. Stuntz, corresponding secretary OF
the Foreign Mission Board; the Rev.
DR.. F. J. Mcconnell, president of the
De Pauw University, formerly OF
Brooklyn, and the Rev. DR.. r. J.
Cooke, official book editor, seem by
general consent to be four of the
six. or possibly eight, new bishops
who will be chosen. Perhaps there
is less certainty felt that the Rev.
DR.. Cooke will be among the elected
men than of the other three.
There are, however, great num-
Der of other names before the church
at this time. These include the Rev.
DIR. J. B. Hineley, corresponding Sec
retary of the Board of Conference
Claimants; the Rev. DIR. Herbert
Welch of Ohio Wesleyan University
formerly of Brooklyn; the Rev. DR.
f. P. Robertson of North Dakota

Methodist bishop, is an Irishman by

Operators Look For Speedy Settle
ment

New York, April 3.-Anthracite
coal operators believe that the sus-
pension of work in the hard coal re-
gion which went into effect the first
of this week, will not continue long,
and that the coming meeting of the
operators committee and representa-
tives of the miners on April 10, in
Philadelphia, will result in a basis
of settlement. This belief Is
strengthened, the operators say, by
the fact that there have been no
traces of bitterness shown on either
side, and that this makes a satisfac-
tory adjustment of differences much
easier
Just what proposition the miners
will submit to the operators at the
coming Philadelphia conference as a
| basis of discussion has not been
learned, but the operators think the
i two points of chief issue will be the
| questions of increased wages and
recognition of the union. Most oil
the operators are in favor of grant.

years ago.

eral Independent companies hat
made special arrangements will
