COURT BUILDINGS
STRONG WALLS

At the Judiciary building the steel
work is being rapidly put into place,
and the big derricks are handling the
columns with ease. The steel columns
are being put in at intervals of twelve
feet, along the walls and, besides be-
ing securely set into the floor, are
clamped to the walls by means of very
strong steel bolts.
Besides the steel columns that are
set along all the walls, there are still
others that are located down the mid
die of the different rooms.
That the walls of the building are
very strong, and that the work put
in by the contractor, way back in 1872,
is of the best, is made evident every
hour nowadays. The air drills that
are boring holes in the walls, in order
to insert the bolts that are to hold
the uprights, find hard work piercing
the concrete of which the walls are
constructed. There was no mistake
in the mixture that was used by the
contractor, and the results are being
shown now.

BULKHEAD PLAN
FULLY ENDORSED

The Chamber of Commerce has
placed its stamp of official approval
upon the bulkhead wharf plan of the
harbor commissioners
At the meeting of the trustees o.
the Chamber held yesterday after
noon, the committee which has had
the matter in hand made report
which supported in full the Wakefield
plan to bulkhead the harbor front
from near the Eva side of the Ala
kea wharf to Queen street. near the
Brewer wharf The report of the
committee was adopted by the trus-
tees.
A number of the members present
spoke strongly in favor of the plan,
which, it was declared, would pro-
vide for the maximum storage capac-
ity for freight, which is badly need
ed The belt railroad plan was also
approved, but the Chamber believes
that the commission, while maintain
ing full control of traffic regulation,
schedules, etc, should not attempt to
operate the railroad itself. This
should be left to the o. r. & L., or
the Rapid Transit Company, or both.

Regarding the size of the House
vote: The absentees are mostly &C

A few had undoubtedly gone home, as
Kuhio did. Il consider the vote on
the sugar bill large one" said Unit
ed States Attorney R. w. Breckons.
1T is larger than the average on a
big bill as study of the Congressional
Record shows. This is owing to the
habit of pairing off"
The only difficult thing to explain
about the sugar news is Mr.. Pollitz'

Washington saying that the Senate
finance committee had made an adj
verse report on the sugar bill This

given out through Mr. Single. The
effect of this cablegram was to help
stocks.
This morning U. S. Attorney Brock

that the Senate news is correct. Moth
ing of the kind has come by Associat-
ed Press. 1T is forty to one that the
House bill did not reach the Senate

that action will be had for two months
to come. Such haste would be most
unusual in important matters. Already
two tariff bills-the metal and chem

take its turn"

CORSON CLARKE
AS MATCHMAKER

Maui News. II. Corsun Clarke is a
great comedian, this fact everyone
who has seen him play here will
agree to- but few know that he has
built up for himself an equally great
reputation as a matchmaker Through.
out the theatrical world Mr.. Clarke
is referred to as the greatest match
maker in the profession And this
AN without any press agent, or with
out any effort on his part The only
reason for all this is the happy at
mosphere which surrounds Mr..
Clarke and his company in everyday
life-off the stage as well as on it.
Happiness is said to make people
beautiful, and Mr.. Clarke says this
is the only reason he has to offer for
the many happy marriages which has
taken from him members of his com.
pany at different times in his travels.
The little god cupid is still stalk
ing his company, and this time it is
the talented and pretty Miss Alma
Murphy who has been hit. When
leaving the Coast Miss Murphy's
father, placed the young lady in Mr..
Clarke's charge, but he figured not
that Hawaii contained many charm
ing young men. To one of these,
Mr.. Albert Half, Miss Murphy lost
her heart Mr.. Clarke would not lis
ten to it, but he had forgotten Cupid.
The young lady sent a message to
her father, and just before leaving
Hilo the return message came in one
word, Consent"
The happy couple are to be mar
ried in Honolulu Monday next.
Mr.. Half is a hustling young bust
ness man in the employ of M. Nc
Inerny Company, Ltd, and they will
make their home in Honolulu for the
present.
When Mr. Clarke next plays why
Smith Left Home" he will have a new
husband tanner, as Miss Murphy will

A. Y. GEAR WINS
REPLEVIN SUIT

An opinion OF the Supreme Court,
by Chief Justice Robertson, was rem
.dered this morning in the replevin
suit of the Fidelity Insurance Com.
pany, Ltd, VS.. William Henry. 1t af.
firms the judgment of the district
magistrate Of Honolulu for the plain
tiff. After reviewing the case and
citing authorities, the court says:
The defendants plea in abatement
was properly overruled because it
was not supported by proof, and his
motion for nonsuit was properly
denied because it was not incumbent
upon the plaintiff to show afirma-
lively that it's president was author
lied to cause the action to be
brought"
The plea in abatement challenged
the authority of A. v. Clear, as presi-
dent of the plaintiff company, to
bring the suit Gear had been sworn
and testified to being the president
Of the company, and that he had
brought the. action for the restitution
of the property.
Points of law established are given
in the syllabus as follows:
''The appointment of an officer of
a corporation may be proved by the
testimony of the officer himself.
In action by corporation before
a district magistrate it is not incum-
bent upon the plaintiff to prove af-
TENTATIVELY that the institution of the
action was authorized by the corpor-
alton, and failure so to do is not
ground for nonsuit."
Justice Perry files a concurring
opinion. c. F. Peterson appeared for
plaintiff and w. B. Lymer for defend
ant.

STOCK MARKET
CUTS CAPERS

Honoluu's stock market is nothing
if not erratic Yesterday afternoon.
Immediately after The receipt of Ga,
news that the House had passed tao
Underwood free sugar bin by vote
of 1873 to 1903, the curb market got
busy and doomed prices to the high.
est mark of the week Eva was bid
up steadily from 1914 to 35 fiat, and
in all 100 shares changed hands i'm
this way.
Likewise Hawaiian Commercial q
Sugar doomed up to 451a, Oahu went
to Az, and McBryde to 10 fiat.
It is true that the street had ru-
NOR of a cable from Washington to
the effect that the Senate Finance
Committee has refused to receive the
bill; but the cable was unverified, and
while the general impression remains
that the Senate will not pass the
House measure, it was rather stretch
ing credulity to believe that the Sen
ate had acted in any way on a bill
withip half an hour or so after it's
passage by the House.
The sales on the exchange this
morning were light, and prices are
wagering. A slight reaction has taken
place since the street market yesterday
afternoon. The condition of the mar
ket may be described as feverish and
uncertain.

RAT EXTIRPATION
IN HAMAKUA

DR.. Pratt returned from Hawai-.
this morning, and he brought cheer.
ing reports of the rat campaign ana
general sanitation work that is being
done on the Hamakua coast of the
big island
DR.. Mccoy, who was also expected
back this morning, did not turn up.
1t appears that a suspicious case was
discovered near Honokaa a couple of
days ago and DR.. Mccoy decided to
stay over and watch the progress of
the case.
The rat campaign Is well under
way now all along the coast from
Hilo to Kukuihaele, and many of the
rodents are being caught in traps
and by other means. Poison is being
used a lot, and not only rats but mon
goose are being killed off. Some OF
the latter show signs of plague germs.
Chief Inspector Bowman of Hawaii
was with the Honolulu health party
all the time. His knowledge of the
conditions and the different localities
came in very handy.
DR.. Pratt thinks the sanitary condi-
tons on Hawaii are improving every
day, and the way the plantation man
ayers are helping out in the rat cam
paign is very cheering.

Mes.srs. Wakefield and Berndt under
stand that the cable ship Destorer left
this harbor principally because of the
high cost of water to the vessel.
Captain Matson is tired of the stu
alton and contemplates hauling water
from the Honolulu Plantation COM
pany's wells at Pearl Harbor, by means
of barges, for his vessels.
The Inter-Island company is con-
sidering a project to bore an artesian
well near Bishop wharf. 1t will be
urged to supply water to ships gen
orally at cost, not to exceed 25 cents
per 1000 gallons. The directors seem
favorable to this project.
Mr.. Wakefield remarked today: eff
the shipping of the harbor is protect
ed by the harbor commissioners it is
their duty to urge private corpora
tons to supply the wants of shipping
until such time as the government
sees its way clear to satisfactorily
compete with them"
Campbell Makes Statement.
Superintendent of Public Works
Marston Campbell was seen this morn
ing in connection with the complaints
that are being made against the
charges that are made for water to
vessels in port.
For years I have been in favor of
reductions" said Mr.. Campbell, but
have pointed out that reduction of
the price of water to ships will in
crease the cost to private consumers
in the city. The sewer system has to
be taken care of, and the law reads
that all the proceeds from the water
rates and the sewer raes shall go into
one fund, and be used for the support
of both. The auditor only carries one
account and it is for water and sew
ers."
The superintendent announced that
the whole of the Manoa valley dis
trict will be we'll protected from fire
soon, and that the extension of the
hydrants will be made as soon as
possible.
