FINANCIERS OF
SENATE Will.
get BUSY

When the ways and means commit
tee reports on S. b. 3S it viii be con-
siderably torn up. This is the bill
making appropriations out Of the gen.
efal revenue to run the government
for the next biennial period. This
measure will not be reported out or
committee until the forty-fifth DAY of
the session, or five days from now.
In the meantime the committee will
keep busy. Ii will be the busiest body
in the capital and will have to pass
on all the financial measures which
have been introduced. The two main
of the committees time, though there
are a number of smaller bills OF no
little Importance, especially in the
eyes of the introducer.
Beginning tonight, Chairman Rice
announces the committee will hold
night meetings. II will first lick S. B.
38 in shape A table has been pre-
pared, showing the amounts appropri-
ated in 1911 under this head and the
sums asked for this session. II pre-
sents a rather tough problem. At the
ltTlil6T -StossOli SG,-lSyioI was dpplb-
priated. and this year, according to
the governors figures. S2.5S4,6S1 is
needed. The estimated revenue for
the next two years is only $2,l0G,00Q,
which means that If the committee
lets s. b. SO pass calling for more
than that sum there is likely to be a
deficit when the next Legislature
meets. 1t may he added, though, that
there is a balance Of something like
sI00.GeO, which may be used. But the
special appropriations are fast cutting
into that, the worlds fair appropria-
ton among others, and before the tis-
cal year ends it may be very, very
small lump of coin.
The second large appropriation bill
is the loan one, hich may call for
something like S5,0O0.0G0. 1t will be
ever these two bills that the night
meetings will be devoted.

CALL TODAY ON /.
FUNSTON !. !.

The lobby of the Young hotel this
morning bore strong resemblance to
the hotel at Tampa, just prior to the
embarkation for Cuba in Spanish war
days. Army officers occupied every
available foot of floor space. Five Col
enels were among those present and
with officers of lesser rank in in
verse ratio, so that when it came
down to lieutenants, it was impossible
to cross the floor without humping
into three or four of them.
The occasion for the gathering was
the official call on General Funston
made by the post commander, at
Sehofield Barracks, Colonel McGun-
negle, and the cantonment command
ers and post staff, made by Colonel
French. accompanied by all the Off
GERS of the Second Infantry, from Fort
Shafter. - The Schofield contingent
made their call at about 1890, Col.
cnel McGunnegle, Colonel Kennon,
Colonel Rogers, Colonel Beach, Major
Cruikshank, Captain '0ffley, and Cap
tain Burnett being included In the
party. At 11:15 Colonel French and
his officers, about So in all, paid their
respects to the new department com.
mander. 49,. - -.
The navy was in on the exchange
of calls, for at $3.50 Read-Admiral
Moore, accompanied by Lieutenant
Stevens, returned General Funstons
call, and later in the morning Admira
Moore was at home to Colonel Nc
Gunnegle and the Schofield higher
ups" - ~
Just before noon Governor Frear,
accompanied by Colonel Jones, re-
turned the call of General Funston.
Altogether it was a morning of off
cial handshaking. ..=.... FL.
Tomorrow morning there will be
more guns popping at the naval sta,
ton when Dr. Marques, consul for
France and Russia, pays his respects
to Admiral Moore. /. LII.

.NUUANU RESIDENTS FOR
PROBE Of CONTRACT FOR WATER

To the fact that an agreement had
been signed, it was said today, when
the electric company began tearing up
the streets few days ago prepara-
tory to laying their pipes. Owing to
the fact that the supply from the
Nuuanu dam is already so slight that
irrigation privileges have been re-
stricted and residents have been suf-
fering from a lack of water for do
nestle purposes, the protest was i'm
mediate. ....
BY the terms of the agreement,
which was on file this morning in the
office of the public works department,
the electric company is granted ali
the water that may be necessary for
boiler purposes foE period OF twenty
years. For thiC water the company is

cents per thousand gallons. 1t is stip-

The All-Hawaii polo team lost the
third and deciding match with the
San Mateo Slashers yesterday after
noon, after an exhibition, which, ac-
cording to the cable dispatches, was
the greatest ever seen on Califor-
Tia polo field. The final score was
1914 to 10. ..... -:..s
This news, which was received by
polo enthusiasts with great regret,
carries with it the cheering informa-
lion that while loser, Hawaii open
ed the eyes of the Coast polo world.
The sting of defeat is softened by the
knowledge that the islanders made I
grand fight for the championship, anu
that playing with all the small odda
against them, they kept the result in
doubt up to the last moment. The
Total goal score for the three games
required to decide the series with the

Opposition Is brewing in the senate
to the immediate confirmation of all
the three members named by Governor
Frear for the commission to investi-
gate Hawaii county financial affairs
The senate will probably go into ex-
eeutiye session tomorrow morning
and to discuss confirmation and what
will come out of the session is only
conjecture. 1t was said at the capitol
building this morning that certain
senators are unwilling to confirm the
commission until it is definitely
known that all are able and willing to
serve, and that one of the governors
nominees. DR.. Harold B. Elliot, may
not wish to serve on the commission.
In fact, already there is talk of man
in the place of DR.. Elliot, and Albert
Horner's name has received much fa-
vorable consideration.
DR.. Elliot's choice gave much salts
faction to his friends and it was not
until Saturday night that those in
touch with legislative affairs heard
that any doubt existed as to his ae-
ceptance and confirmation by the SEN.

PREFERENTIAL VOTING Plan
INTRODUCED IN THE SENATE

ing to indicate that the measure to
establish it was about to be launched.
Through the long meeting this
morning on the house direct primary
hills, the opposition was centered on
the point of its partisan nature, and
on the kind of ballots called for in
the measure. Senator Coke made
number OF suggestions to remedy the
ballet ohjection,( which was that un-
der the proposed act no provision
had been made to protect the voters
from having their party ALLEGIANCE
made known on voting. Senator
Writ brought the argument to an
end by proposing the Australian sys-
TEN, where all party nominees find
place on one ballot.
Chairman Rice had appointed Sen
ator Chillingworth to act on the spec
ial committee, but he waived his right
in favor of Senator Judd.

grave kanalua on the primary bill"

Just how grave Senator Judd's

known when eintroduced the pref
