APPEAL CASES
NOT PROSECUTED
Offenders Can Furnish Bond and
Escape Through Legal
Apathy.

There are at present no less than
ten cases appealed to the upper court
from justices by offenders against
the city ordinances.
These cases are said to have been
neglected by the city law force and
will die for lack of prosecution.
The police claim that they are
hampered in their efforts TO compel
an observance of the city ordinances
by a certain clique quick to suggest
appeals and often furnishing appeal
bonds for a small consideration
simply on account of alleged apathy
on the part of the city to provide an
attorney to prosecute the cases to a
conclusion.

new RATES
- = =. 81

There has been general reGdjust.
ment Of freight rates between Homo
lulu and the island ports, covered by
the Inter.Island Steam Navigation
Company. the new schedule Of charg-
cs having gone into effect with the
beginning Of the month.
In discussing the matter this morn
ing, President and General Manager
Kennedy stated IN substance that
there was no marked increase in the
rates on freight, heretofore prevailing
IN the Inter-lsland service. The sche-
dule, as now amended. In some In
stances calls for a distinct reduction
in former tariffs, as far as the ship
per or large lots Of merchandise Is
concerned. The freight rates are
said to have demanded some neces-
sary changes, but in scaling the fig
ures, few really important alterations
were made.
Withs October LIST, the steamship
company added a small additional
charge to passenger fares in connec-
tion with the better staterooms on
such vessels as the Mauna Kea,
Claud7ne. Kinau and the Mauna LOa.
In defense Of this move upon the
part Of the company, President Ken.
nedy said The Inter-Island recent.
" has expended q large sum In refit.
ting number Of cabins In the sever
al vessels. Equipped with new berths,
mattresses and layatories. there are
q few staterooms in eGch Of the regu.
lar passenger liners that are entitled
to command higher fare It was
pointed out that the Oceanic, Matson
and Pacific Mail companies had main.
tained q similar regulation FOR some
years past
The increase asked amounts 70
about dollar per passenger for the
better grade Of accommodation and
applies in the main to the shorter
runs to nearby ports. Passage be
tween Honolulu and Kahului. Lahaina
and one or two Kauai ports are said
TO be most affected by the increase.
II was stated today that the altered
freight tariff was submitted to the
