ARMAMENT FOR

Portions of armament for coast de-
fense guns, some pieces weighing
twenty tons, were landed at Honolulu
with the arrival of the Matson Navi-
CATION liner Lurline from San Fran
cisco today
Bringing fifty cabin and eleven
steerage passengers, the steamer
berthed at Hackfeld wharf at 1880,
completing a passage in which the ell
ements were not at all favorable.
Strong gales and heavy seas prevailed
a portion of the way across the Pa
cific. One hundred and sixty sacks
of mail and 5000 tons cargo are in
tended for this port.
An interesting program of deck
sports was arranged by Capt. Weed
en- and Purser Meyers in which many
passengers participated. On the aft
erdeck of the vessel twenty-five head
of stock travelled in safety.
The Lurline is to be dispatched for
Kahului on Thursday evening, where
800 tons freight will be discharged
''The last trip to the coast was the

ed Captain Weeden today in discuss

Senator Wirtz'S Measure At
tracts Attention and Gets
Much Support

The sentiment of the people will be
listened to this afternoon by the judi.
ciary committee of the senate on the
proposed employers liability statute.
Though having gone into the provi-
sions of the bill thoroughly, and be-
ing strongly in favor of its passage,
the committee decided to first hear
outside opinion before reporting on
the measure.
The meeting will be held in the sem
ate chamber at 3 O'Clock, and all hav-
ing an interest in the bill, one way or
another, are urged to be on hand.
s.. B. No. 10. as it is known, being
a direct departure from the old COM
mon law liability acts, has had so far
a rather slow progress through the
senate, which is due to the close
scrutiny, it has received by commit
tee members and others.
If the sense of the meeting this af-
ternoon is shown to be in favor OF
the act, it is likely that the judiciary
committee will report it back to the
senate with favorable recommends
tions.
The bill is drafted along the lines
of modern legislation, and much Of it
has been taken from the model act
framed by the uniform legislation
league, which has sprung into life dur
ing the past few years and is dedieat-
ed to the interests of uniform legfsla-
tion suited to present neeGs.

CARTER AT WORK
+. ON PLANS FOR
CAMP PAIGN
Organized Publicity to Be Fea,
ture of Fiaht for Sugar
Tariff +.

! Former Governor George r. Carter,
selected by the the merchants associ-
elton and chamber of commerce as
the proper man to go to Washington
in fight for the sugar tariIi. is act
lively at work today organizing plans
for lively campaign.
Both President Bishop of the cham
ber of commerce and President o. G.,
Swain of the Merchants Association
are keenly interested in Mr.. Carter's
plans as outlined to the directors of
the latter organization yesterday.
AS advised by Mr.. Carter and au-
proved by Massrs. Bishop and Swain,
heads of the two commercial bodies,
the local campaign is designed in the
first place to be publicity one. Every
merchant and individual. as well as
the commercial bodies as such, will
be expected to write their business
and personal acquaintaices on the
mainland, giving plain facts relating
to the Importance and the position of
the sugar industry, with requests to
private individuals to communicate
the information to their acqnaintances
in Washington pubic life. All branch
es Of business here will be appealed to
to do their part in aiding the cam
raign of information, as all are equal
ly dependent for their prosperity upon
the sugar industry.
With the launching of such propa-
sanda there will be arpropr."te
committees appointed to manage the
financial end and properly to direct
the agitation Such printed matter as
may be available, in the form of gov
ernment and plantation reports. news
papers containing facts bearing on
the object, ETC.. woud of course ha in
rluaed in the publicity feature of the
work.
When the local campaign has been
fairly inaugurated NAV be considered
as time enough for. Mr.. Carter to go
20 Washington to work at that end.
This, however. is question to be dis
Cussed at the conference tomorrow
which will be at 3 o'clock in the rooms
of the Chamber of Commerce.
In the meantime, 1t is practic Ally
settled that L. s. CONFESS, late editor
of the Hawaii Herald. who left for
Washington today to remain there for
some years, will act as correspondent
of the commercial bodies here AMI
keep them posted regarding the cur
rent of tariff legislation. besides doing
whatever he finds possible to promote
the campaign at the national capital

THAYER PLANNING
SYSTEMATIC
PROBE
Commission of Three Probably
Named and Thorough Ex-
animation of Records
To Be Made

Plans for a thorough investigation
of the Hawaii county financial scan
dal have been already worked out by
the attorney generals office along the
lines of appointing commission OF
three men similar to the Hughes COM
mission that investigated the insur-
ance companies in New York several
years ago. The plans drawn up by
Attorney General W. w. Thayer were
presented this morning to committee
of the senate and will be presented
to both houses of the legislature Al
the earliest possible moment.
According TO the scheme worked out
by Mr.. Thayer, the investigating COM
mittee will consist of three men ap-
pointed by the governor These men
will not be members of the legisla-
ture, but impartial outsiders who will
be able to act in very much the same
capacity as a grand jury. They will
be empowered to subpoena witnesses
and to take their evidence, to search
the papers and records bearing upon
the case, to meet any place at any
time. In short, the committee will be
given sufficient powers to enable
it to probe to the bottom of the
matter and to fix the responsibility
where it belongs. Either the attorney
general or representative from his
office will be present at the hearings
OF the committee, and make up the
case of the government. 1t will prob
ably be several months before a COM
mittee such as the one planned could
sift all evidence and draw final con-
clusions and considerable sum of
money, in estimates ranging from ten
to twenty thousand dollars, will be
necessary to carry on the work.
Attcrney-General W. w. Thayer
said this morning that not a stone
would be left unturned in making the
investigation as thorough as can pos
sibly be made. County Auditor Ma
guire was expected to arrive from
Hilo this morning. but no news had
been received of his presence at the
attorney-general's office at late
hour this morning. Thayer stated
this morning that representative
from his office will go over to Hilo
tomorrow for the purpose of investi-
eating conditions there. ~.

EMOCRATS DO NOT
AGREE ON OFFICES.
Territorial Central Committees
Endorsements Fail to Meet
Universal Approval

It's not often tnat there is more
than one political job, fat and within
reach, for one man.
Still, as it looks today. Representa-.
tive S. S. PaXson of Honolulu is like,
ly to be either postmaster at Honolulu
or U. S. collector of customs for the
territory And Ed Duisenberg, also
of Honolulu, may be either collector
of customs or postmaster. Also, there
are several other variations for other
Democratic candidates.
The Democratic territorial central
committee held lengthy session last
evening, which was the aftermath Of
another lengthy session last Saturday.
The session Saturday almost broke up
in a row, the echoes of which have
been lingering since, but last night
the committee put through number
Of Endorsements, some of them we'll
agreed upon and others only upon a
majority vote.
The session last night was an ex-
ecutive one, and members of the conf
mittee absolutely declined to go into
details as to the Endorsements made.
Some of those indorsed, however, are
said to have been so happy about it
that they couldn't help mentioning
the fact to friends. In one way and
another, a good deal of what hap
pened last night was being taxed
about among the politicians of both
parties this morning.
The Endorsements made by the COM
mittee last night contain some real
surprise-packages For instance, there
has been little said of S. S. Paxson
being a candidate for federal office,
and practically nothing about Ed
Duisenberg. The committee last night,
it is declared on good authority,
recommended Paxson for postmaster
of Honolulu, to succeed Pratt, and
Duisenberg for collector of customs.
@. d. Pringle, who was dropped from
the department of internal revenue
here shortly after Collector Cottrill
took hold, has been after Cottrill's
job for a long time and he was in
dorsed by the committee last night.
1t is no secret that there was a fight
among the committee members over
this, but the Pringle forces had been
carefully primed for the fray and
forced through the Endorsement by a
majority vote. 1t is said that he was
particularly strong among the Hawa-
iian members. So Pringle's name
goes to washington as indorsed by
the committee for revenue collector.

for the act fixes definite amount to

Man Who Succeeds Hewitt
May Be Able to Draw Full
$500 Salary

What compensation will Senator
George c. Hewitt's successor re-
ceive?
This is a question that promises
some worriment to the lawmakers,
to whom it must shortly be put. The
law provides that a legislator shall
receive $500 for each regular session
he attends. 1t does not set any rule
for the payment of this money, such
as the date, or, whether at a certain
rate for each day served. 1t merely
saye he shall be paid 5000 for the
session he attends, otherwise leaving
the question wide open.
1t is therefore figured. that possible
the late senator's estate is entitled
to the entire $500; that if a member
attends the regular session for only
one day, he has complied with the
statute and is entitled to the full re-
companse. Senator. Hewitt already

are not in harmony with the action
of the majority in certain indorse-
ments and will probably send to
Washington Endorsements of their
own. Thus it is said that there is an
ir ential faction which refuses to
stand for Pringle as a candidate for
revenue collector and favors instead
Robert W. Cathcart. This same wing
is believed to favor Paxsen for GUS
toms collector instead of for post
master, and Duisenberg for post
master instead of for custom col
lector. Hence it happens that 1t looks
as if these two iucky ones can't lose
out so far, as some kind of good
federal job is concerned. Both have
strong backing and the Democrats de-
clare they have the support of the
businessmen.
