FULL CREW" OUT.
Anti Railroad Bill on Floor of
the Senate.
Minority Report Adopted by
Upper House Today.

The famous ''full crew" bill, a meas
ure that has kept the railroads Of Kan
sas uneasy for several weeks, will have
to be fought out on the floor of the
senate. The committee on railroads
and corporations recommended that the
bill be killed today but the senate
adopted a minority report with the I'M
Outstanding that the original act would
be placed the calendar for further
considera ton.
The full crew. bill has been in
committee conference for 20 days or
more. Several times the members of
the committee have changed their ideas
on the final recommendation. At one
time it was planned to redraft the
measure and try and make an agree
ment for the report to the senate.
The deadlock was broken today when
Chairman Mcmillan recommended for
the committee that the bill be not
passed. Senator Davis sent in mi
nority report and the senate voted to
place the entire proposition on the cal
endar
THE full crew. bill will inaugurate
the most bitter fight of the session
when it is reached on the calendar.
Some of the railroad brotherhoods are
bringing great force to bear in favor of
the bill introduced early in the session
by Senator Kinkel, of Morris county.
On the other hand railroad OfnclalS
declare that the bill is worthless, that
it provides for unnecessary employees
without additional safety and that il
would cost the carriers of the state at
least s., 100000 annually.
Among ne members of the commit
tee there is a sentiment to knock out
all discrimination against the negro
fagman and porters on passenger
trains of the state. The original bill
would bar these men from taking posi-
tions on passenger trains.
The minority members of the COM
snittee are of the opinion, according
to the Davis report, that with addi-
tional members of train crews the loss
of life by accident could be avoided.
The bill was supported on the floor to-
day by Kinkel of Morris, Howe of
Dickinson, Mahin of Smith, Davis of
Bourbon, Milton of Wyandotte and
Joseph of Butler. The chairman, Sen
ator Mcmillan of ottawa, said he did
not object to the minority report and
was willing that the entire senate
threSh out the measure.
1t is rumored today that the senate
will revise the original bill and limit
the double crews to trains over a
certain number of cars. Also that the
negro porter and fiagman Will not be
relieved of his work by white en-
rlOVeeS.

The eighteen members of the Wash

The club. accompanied by Dean Hor-
ace Whitehouse and E. d. Schonberg-

of the number declares that the car

coats neatly suspended from the cell
ing on hangers. The boys travelled the
northern route, and gave twelve con-
certs at various reading rooms and
opera houses.
They spent a week at Los Angeles
and southern California, where they
gave five cOncerts-at Pomona col

OUTDOOR CIRCLE AIDS
CITY BEAUTIFUL PLANS

In furtherance of their democratic
aim to educate all the people of Homo
lulu in the general subject of city
Identification, and to instill into the
younger generation desire for clean
streets and wen kept homes, the Out
door Circle is today giving to the
children throughout the public schools
copies of the Honolulu Beautiful
number of The Friend recently issued
in the interests of the circle.
Plans for a special time to be set
aside for the writing of competitive
essays on various phases of civic
beauty were discussed at a meeting of
the principals at the board of educa.
ton rooms last Friday. 1t was then
dedided that the story writing time
be prefaced by short talks by the
teachers. Some very interesting COM
positions will doubtless be the result
The Outdoor Circle is to be congrat-
lilahed upon the practical results Of
their civic work. Through the plan
of interesting the school children they
will incidentally reach the parents,
and thus two-sided and very COM
mendable work will be accomplished.
1t has been suggested that the hand
scme illustrations in the magazine may
appeal to the mothers to the extent Of
using, them for home decoration.

A new CHARTER AND CLEANER CITY

membership of u.s. He urged that
the members stand together in secur-
ing necessary Improvements for the
Palama community, and that the
residents of the district give their
earnest cooperation to the members
of the. club. With regard to the need
of lights on various lanes and smaller
streets throughout the district, Mr..
Bowen reported that James A. Rath,
headworker OF the settlement, had
been to see Supervisor Petrie con-
corning this matter, and that he had
promised to have the matter at
tended to at once. Mrs. Webb then
told of the conditions which exist
in Aud lane. She said that this lane
was continually full of rubbish, and
that as there were not sufficient
lights, that persons passing through
at night were continually in danger of
falling or otherwise becoming in
jured.
Charter Committee Reports
Ex-senator John C. Lane then re-
ported to the committee on the recent
massmeeting held at Aala Pork under
the auspices of the Palama Improve
ment Club, as result of which a
bill, known as senate bill No. SO,
which provides for a public election
on the adoption of new city charter.
Is now pending before the legisla-
ture. He urged the members of the
club to take active measures in secur
ing the passage of this bill. w. A.
Bowen then presented an unique
scheme for helping along the passage
Of the bill by saying that he would,
with the permission of the club, send
every day to five or six different
members of the club and residents
of the district, postal cards request
ing them to that Cay go to the legis-
lature and talk with the legislators
whom they knew, and urge them to
try and secure the passage Of the bill
This plan was heartily endorsed by
the speaker.
Besides trying to secure the pas
sage of senate bill No. SO. the mem
bers of the club will now go after the
board of supervisors and endeavor to
secure immediate action on it's part
to remedy the insanitary conditions
which now prevail in different parts
of the neighborhood Lights, sewers
and water will be three of the most
important items to be presented, and
it is believed that by constantly work
ing together. the members of the club
can bring the board of supervisors to
realize the urgent need of these i'm
provements.

FIGHT TO KEEP STATE FAIR
Efforts by Other Cities to Secure
Bg Attraction Arouses Mil
waukee to Action.

Milwaukee. Milwaukeeans will
aot sit idly by with their hands fold
ed while representatives of other
cities are laboring with the legisla-
tors at Madison for the purpose Of
having the state fair removed from
Milwaukee. The people of this city
regard the fair as fixed institution
for Milwaukee by reason of the large
amount of money invested in equip
ment and intend making hard fight
on any proposition 20 remove the fair
to any other city, Active work to
this end has been begun by the leg
islative committee of the Merchants
and Manufacturers association. The
contention will be made that no 9TH
er city in the state can offer the
transportation and hotel facilities
that Milwaukee affords and emphasis
will be laid on the assertion that
patronage by the citizens of Mil
waukee has saved the fair from a
deficit upon several occasions. Osh-
kosh and Wausau are the cities most
active in endeavoring to acquire the
state fair.
