LOAN FUND FOLK
FAIL To MOVE
Two Most important Projects
Await Delayed Actions Of
Commissioners.
Iron sunday's Advortiser.l

With the fasco OF the Heoia road
contract which they awarded TO Lord.
Young Engineering Company, now tied
up in court, the members Of Loan Fund
Commission seemingly have gone into
retirement. Apparently they have for.
gotten all about Frog Lane, the Leile.
hua road and the two new schoolhouses
that are still to be built.
City Engineer Gere had his men
working on the Frog Lane matter for
several weeks, and two months ago he
turned the details over to the members
of the commission. All surveys had
been made, the road grade was deter.
mined, the amount of property which
would be necessary to condemn and all
other details were worked out, and the
estimates of all kinds turned over to
Chairman Adams. There has been no
meeting of the ommission-publie or
private that time and absolutely
no action has been taken as to what is
going to be done in the matter, al
though the money is available and
waiting TO De sent.
This widening of Frog Lane into
street is an important matter to
large number of persons, who are at
loss to know why the commission has
not done something in the premises
Second Section of Road.
The final figures for the second sec
tion of the belt road were completed
last week. This section is ten mile
and one,half stretch through two
gulches and across Leilehua plains.
The work presses, but no notice of any
meeting of the board has been issued
by its chairmen.
The second section of the belt road
is an especially important one, con-
Meeting as it does the two sections of
good road, and being the only stretch
the whole distance to Haleiwa which
can be injured by rainfall. Although
this road as a whole will not be espe-
cially costly, the hauling of the rock
needed in its construction will cost
much money, and this really is the only
large expense in its construction
The city engineer has stated that
there is no grading to amount to any
thing to do in the whole piece of road
way, and were it not for the expense
in getting crushed rock on the ground
it would be cheap job to finish. AS
it is, the work is estimated to cost
something under ten thousand dollars
a mile. Under the specifications this
roadway will be the equal of any of
the country roads on the island, and
will be work much appreciated by the
travelling public.
Schoolhouses.
At one of the last meetings of the
commission which was held, two archi-
tects of the city were authorized to
prepare plans for two schoolhouses to
be built from loan fund money. The
architects have completed their work,
but no action has been taken by the
commissioners on this matter.
Rumor has it that the loan fund
commission is to have a meeting to
consider school building matters to-
morrow, but it is vague rumor only,
that no one seems to be able to verify.
1t is the custom of Chairman Adams
to take no one into his confidence until
ten minutes before the meeting hour
and then notify the other commission
ers where to meet him in hurry.

The plans for the Kaimuki school

some doubt whether the board had to

NO DECREASE IN TIPPING
IN PHILADELPHIA HOTELS
PrOprietOrs of Houses Patronized by
Commercial Travellers Say They'll
Not Stop the Practice.

Philadelphia.-If an anti-tipping
crusade has been started by the drum
mers throughout the country there is
no indication of any concentrated
movement in Philadelphia so far as
any person is able to see. The Phila-
delphia walters have had their hands
out just as strenuously during the last
twenty-four hours as at any other
time in the last fifty years, and the
money in large quantities has crossed
their palms.
Mahlon Newton, proprietor of
Green's Hotel here, and David b
Provan, manager of the Bingham
House, the two hotels patronized
chiefly by travelling men, declare they
will take no part in the movement.
I'm several years." said Mr.. New
ton, Il have had just three complaints
as to service and 1 have had none as
to tipping. If my patrons wish to tip
they may do so. 1t is not compul-
sorry"
Mr.. Provan takes much the same
view of the matter. Prior to what
Mr.. Pravan calls the ''ultimatum OF
the commercial travellers" he was will
| ling to do all in his power to stop the
solicitation of tips in the Bingham
/ House, but since that ultimatum hi
takes different view of the matter
and declares he will allow the travel
ers to work out their own solution.
