FRESH SCHEME
FOR DEPOT LOOP
Would Connect Station With the

Three-Cent Fares
REFUSES TO BUILD
ON COUNCILS PLAN
Indications Are That City will
BE Forced to Accept D. u.
RS Proposal

1t Is likely that the d. U. r., despite
the opposition Of Mayor Marx. will
force the common council to pass q
resolution allowing the company to
build the new Michigan Central de-
pot loop on seven-for-a-Quarter fare
basis. The company proposes now to
abandon the plan Of extending the
Fourteenth line and to make the loop
an extension of the Michigan-ave. line
only.
In q letter addressed to the mayor
and the common council, Tuesday
morning. F. w. Brooks, general man.
ager Of the ID. U. r., informed the
city officials that the company would
not build the extension under the
terms of the resolution passed by the
council week ago, providing for an
extension Of the Fourteenth line and
an eight-for-a-Quarter rate Of fare on
all the Pingree line cars travelling
over the loop. He suggested" that
the council pass another resolution,
giving the company permission to
build an extension Of the Michigan
ave. line to accommodate the depot
traffic, the extension to be built un-
der the terms Of the compromise
agreement adopted by the council,
Aug. I.
The letter follows:
The Honorable Mayor and Common
Council.
City Of Detroit.
Gentlemen:--I beg to call your
attention to the resolution adopt
ed by your honorable body ON the
23rd inst. respecting the building
OF tracks for the accommodation
Of the traffic to and from the new
Michigan Central depot.
This resolution is entirely at
variance with and In contradic-
ton to the terms of the agree
ment between the city and the
company respecting the building
OF the tracks and under It's terms
the company IL not willing to pro-
ceed
1t Is noted that there is q de-
sire to have certain extensions
made to the so-called three-cent
lines. This, we think. Is q matter
that should be considered in con-
nectiOn with any general rear.
rangement and extension plan
that the city might desire to
adopt.
We suggest. therefore. that we
be permitted to build the tracks
to accommodate the station traf-
fic between the station and the
Michigan-ave. tracks under the
terms of the agreement of Aug Z,
and that q resolution to that end
be adopted permitting US tospro-
ceed with the work without de-
lay.

II am undecided at this time On

After several DAYS OF planning in
the endeavor to choose the most aD-
propriate route, the line of march OF
the Floral Parade on February p and
place of assembling for each division,
has been announced by DirectOr-gen-
eral Chillingworth, and is as follows:
Parade Route.
The parade will leave the executive
building and proceed on King street TO
Fort street and from there to Bere-
tania street; on Beretania street to
Kapiolani street, down kapiOlani to
King street and then up Victoria
street to Beretania street. passing the
review stand on the Mckinley High
School grounds, and thence to Puma
hou street and Alexander Field.
After passing the reviewing stand

( The next speaker was James A
! Rath, head worker of the Palama Set
Element. who presented chart which
vas made for the Public Welfare ex
hibit in 1911, upon which was stuck
a number of pins showing the deaths
! in the district due to tuberculosis, in
1911 This chart showed that within
quarter of a mile radius from the
corner of King and Liliha streets had
occurred 81 per cent Og the entire
luiu.
New Laws Also Needed
Senator Judd spoke in length upon
the economical and legislative side of
the question. He said that the pres
ent system of laws was inadequate.
In referring to the matter of cutting
the streets through the congested dis
tricts of the community, he cited the
instance of Frog Lane and the ex-
tension of School street, which re-
pairs were made under the auspices
of the Loan Fund Commission. He
said that, after the county had made
an appropriation of $4,000 for inn
provcments to Frog Lane, it was dis
covered that $4,000 would be needed
to carry the proposition through.
Taking this as an example, he
figured that the cost of the improve
ments needed at Palama at this time
would come within the neighborhood
of quarter of million dollars, and
he also said that it was very prac-
tical question as to where the money
was going to come from. He said
that the residents could not go to the
legislature for it, because If this was
done, Hawaii. Molokai and other
counties would not stand for it, be-
cause they say that when they have
any improvements to make that they
raise the money for it in their own
county. Here in Honolulu, however,
thiigs of this kind have to be settled
between a city government and ter
ritorial government.

"If we want a new road we have to
go to the supervisors, and they, in
turn, send us to somebody else, and in
this way it is very hard to get the
necessary money" he said. What We
need is a GENERALIZATION of the power
invested in the city governmont-the

URGE NEED Of IMPROVEMENTS
IN WHOLE Of PALAMA DISTRICT

crowded blocks for the sake OF santa
ton. sewers, water. gas and lights
At the present time, the entire n";gh,
bOrhood is ramified with little alley
ways SO narrow that, it has been said
they will not even permit a coffin tc
De carried through.
Doctor Pratt went on 10 say that un-
iesS these streets were cut through
the COngested blocks, sooner or later
fire would break out in the mauka
end of tn" district and sweep over the
entire neighbOrhood from School street
to Iwilei, just as the Chinatown fire
did in 1900. AS the condition now is
the fire department could not get the
wagons and trucks into the interior OF
the blocks on account of the fact that
there are no streets. Lines of hose
would have to be run in, and this
would only be a waste of time which
would give the fire a chance to gain
headWay
If these streets were cut through,
and proper cutters installed, the great
wash of water from the hills which
sweeps over the Palama district every
time it rains could be done away
with. This condition mas been one of
'ong standing, and floods in Palama
are not unusual. At the present time,
the water which is piped into the CEN
ter of these blocks has to pass through
very small pipes and therefore there
are many leaks. making a waste for
the city and sometimes dirty water
for the residents. According to Doc
tor Pratt, this condition could be OBJ
Waited by the cutting of streets under
which could be placed large water
mains.
Question Of Sewerage.
The question of sewerage was taken
up by Doctor Pratt, being one which
is of vital importance from a sanitary
standpoint The blocks which are a
mass of crowded tenemerts prevent
the installation of sewers, as there is
no opening into the blocks through
which they may be laid, and as a re-
suit of this the people are using cess
pools to a great extent This con-
dition, of course, does not prevail in
the districts where new %tenements

IF cholera or any other infectious
disease were to break out among the

Gated in the Palama district, the en-
tire city would be in danger, and to
prevent this we have got to open UP
the congested districts and undertake
extensive sanitary operations"
TtiS statement was made by Doctor
Pratt. who opened the meeting. He
fret took up the necessity OF opening
streets 10 cut through the great blocks
OF tcnements which prevail through
cut the district In the center, bound
cd by King, Liliha, Beretania, Kukui,
School and Vineyard streets, there are
no crOSs-streets other than small
enough to permit the passage OF an or
binary wagon. In the centers OF
these large blocks there are hundreds
OF acres under cultivation, and on the
border OF these taro lands people live
in small houses, the outhouses being
located near the small auwaiS. If ty-
phoid or cholera were to break out in
these places, the disease would rapid
ly spread through the water in the au-
wais. and in this way the disease
would he carried on down to the pee
pie living nearby, as they would be
likely to come in contact with the wa
ter.
Danger Of Epidemic.
In this manner an epidemic of the
disease could be easily started, Dr..
Pratt went on to say, thus at all times
making this congested district of Pa
lama dangerous to the other parts Of
tho city. DR.. Pratt then brought out
the fact that this part of town was
the center OF the tuberculosis Of the,
entire city, and what that part of the
city needed IS streets cut Through the

APPLICATIONS
in FOR. JOBS With
THE LEGISLATURE

There will be no shortage of Off
GERS and servants when the legisla-
ture meets. if the number of appIi-
cations filed with the territorial cen
trail committee of both parties is a
sign. There are a number Of appli-
cants for every job the house and
senate will have to offer, and the
democrats and Republicans will have
their work cut out picking their men
so as to avoid offense.
/ Among those who have esignified
| their willingness to serve their native
land in the house is Capt. Robert w.
Parker, one time candidate for the Of
flee now held by Bill Jarrett Parker
now wishes to be sergeant.at arms of
the house.. He has a Republican rival
in the person of. j.. H. S. Kaleo, 'whe
aspires higher than ever before. James
Fl. Hakuole is the only name. SO far
turned into the committee for the
post of Hawaiian interpreter among
the Republicans, although rumor has
Int that there are couple of Demo-
Gratis who consider themselves COM
petent to fill the bill.
There are messengers galore Among
them are to be found the names Of
E. H. S. Marino,~ John A. Noble, J. NJ.
kealoha, for the house and Arnold
Richardson in the senate. George K.
Hawai- wants the post Of janitor for
The senate and John Kalaukoa is after
the post of sergeant-at-arms In the
upper house.
None of these names, nor any that
may be filed in future, will be acted
upon until Tuesday, when the Repub-
lican solons will gather in a caucus
to select their candidates for the var
ious appointive positions to be filled
in house and senate, and to select
their candidates for the officials Of
the two houses. 1t is now regarded
as practically certain that Senator
knudsen of Kauai will be the G. o. P.
selection for president of the senate,
and Holstein for the speakership of
the house.
In this connection it leaked out this
morning that there is now on foot a
plan to bring out a man from Oahu as
the president of the senate While
this scheme is still in the air, so to
speak, it is likely to upset some of the
best-laid plans Of Hawaiian soions.
Several men have been mentioned for
the post. the chief of them being Cecil
Brown, and it is said that should he
come forward there will be a strong
fight made to seat him.
Still another. and even more imp0r-
tant, caucus is to be held Monday
morning, when the report of the leg
islative committee which has been
busy for months preparing legisla-
tive program, based upon the planks
in the Republican platform, will be
submitted and discussed Among
these measures will be public utili-
ties bill, framed by the legislative
committee along the lines proposed in
the party platform. This bill, in some
degree. is aimed to offset the Demo-
cratic measure of like nature which
the Bourbons planned to spring as al
surprise, but news of which leaked
out Other important measures will
be considered in this caucus not the
least of which will be the re-appOr-
tionment bill. which is already caus-
ing heartburnS galore.

sentatlves and feel assured that we
can have our needs fulfilled"
Senator Judd then presented his
plans for the raising of q quarter of
a million dollars which he thinks will
be necessary to carry out the improve
nents needed in the Palama district.
The first plan was by placing the tax
OF few mills ON each square foot of
land owner, and issuing bonds which
would be covered by lien on the
property under taxation. He said that
he believed the owners Of the taro
lands would be willing to have these
streets cut in and then build houses
on their lands for renting purposes.
The second plan which he presented
was that OF having the city and coun-
~ OF Honolulu pay one-third of the
cost Of the improvements, the land
owners on one side of the new streets
to pay one-third, and the owners on
the other side Of the streets pay the
remaining one third
Senator Judd also put the PROPOSE
ton up to the club that if the Palama
district wanted any improvements it
would have to hustle out after them
He said that twenty years ago the
population of Honolulu was $4,000, and
that today it is $4,000, and so, in twen-
~ years more it ought to have increas-
ed toa200, 900, and that the, city would
lave TO be built now while there is a
chance to meet future conditions.
Remarks were also made by John
