FRANKLIN WANTS
ADDITIONAL HELP
in HIS Service
Special Agents TidweIl and
Bean viii be Shown NeceS-
sity for More Men
OPENING OF CANAL HAS
MADE BUSINESS HEAVIER
It is Claimed Honolulu is Only
U. S. Port Where Treasury
Employees Work Overtime

The lack of sufficient customs in
spectors and guards at the port of
Honolulu, which condition of affairs
for the past two years Is declarsd to
have seriously hampered the speedy
handling of large quantities o. i'm
ports, will be brought to the Alteration
of MessrS Bean and Tidwell, special
agents for the United States treasury
department, who are in the city for
the purpose of making a careful in.
yestigation of the federal customs in
the district of Hawaii. s.
Collector of Customs Malcolm A.
Franklin, some months ago while on
a business trip to washington and
New York, brought to the attention OF
the treasury department the crippled
condition that obtained in the terri
tory of Hawaii because of the short
age of men.
Collector franklin is prepared to
show marked increase in shipping
at the port of Honolulu following the
opening of the Panama canal to
freight and passenger traffic. Ocean
going freighters now calling here on
an average of two. to three each
month for the purpose of taking on
bunker coal, while leaving no cargo
behind, require the same careful scru-
tiny and attention at the hands of the
customs officers as do the regular
trans Pacific liners stopping here to
land passengers and freight.
Messrs. Bean and Tidweli viii be
shown over the ancient pile, which for
more than hair century shaszsefEsd
as headquarters for Tie customs at
the port of Honolulu, while the
amount expended upon its upkeep
has barely been sufficient to maintain
a second rate tenement in good con-
dition.
1t has been brought to the atten-
tion of the special agents that Homo
lulu is the only port under the juris-
diction of the U. s. treasury depart
ment where the small number Of Gus
toms inspectors and guards are com
PEELED to labor more than the pre-
seribed hours fixed by government
regulation. Instead of operating un-
der three shifts of employees as is
done at all points throughout the
United States, the Honolulu customs
force is compelled to perform its du-
ties with but two watches of men.
The matter of a uniform for the
officers in tropical Hawaii is matter
that will also be brought to the atten-
tion Of the authorities at Washington.

That Congressman Mann of Illinois,
one of the most influential men In

recognized as the leader in the lower

In recent letter to Breckons Con-
gressman Mann said that he would
like to come to Hawaii and intimated
that If opportunity offered he would

MAYOR-ELECTA And.
SUPERVISORS
MEET in CAUCUS

| At caucus of the incoming mayor
and supervisors last night Mayor-eiect
Lane submitted passages of his inaug-
ural address relating to the office of
city and county engineer with regard
to public works. He recommends the
appointment of superintendent OF
waterworks and sewers to attend to
the general administration of those
utilities, with the city and county en-.
gineer handling the technical details.
The engineer will also handle all the
technical details of road construction,
according to the plan, but the actual
construction will be under the control
of the board of supervisors. Mr.. Lar.
sen strongly objected to the proposal
respecting roads, saying 1t meant go
ing bsck to politics in road work. An
other member favored the appointment
of man of technical skill as super.
intendent Of water works and sewers,
but as that stage of the question was
not before the meeting the point was
not decided. i
The chairman of the incoming ways
and means committee submitted fig
ures on which to formulate the ap-
preparation BILL As the actual reve-
nue. for the ensuing year is indeter-
minable, he estimated resources on the
basis of the revenue for the year end
ed June S0alast. This gave 1871 ,222.47
for the first six months, or almost ex1
actly, the same as the amount of the
appropriation bill for the current six
months, but the latter includes ad.
yances from the general fund OF s$49,-
400 for water works and S11,900 for
sewers, a total of SCI, 800. On the 9TH
ef& hand, one-half of the years com.
pulsory allowance of $63.175 for new
school buildings should be reserved
from the first six months share of the
revenue This would leave $29,713 net
for the item of permanent improve
ments. an item absent from the cur
rent bill. to which may be added $5900
for election nses-unnecessary for
the coming term. T..
