OF CRATER trail
.Hydrographic Survey Instru-
ment MaIiciously Injured Is
Given as Cause !.

The closing of the Konahuanui-Mt.
Palolo Crater trail to the
public is being seriously considered
by the territorial officials, as re-
suit of malicious interference and in
juries by irresponsible persons to the
railfall and evaporation measurement
stations maintained by the hydro.

These instruments have been tam.
pered and interfered with to the ex-
tent that the rainfall and evaporation
records for 1914 have been spoiled.
As these measurement stations and
this portion of the trail are all within
the forest reserve, the trail may be
closed at viii by the territorial Off.
cials.
It has been a matter of much con-
sideration for over a year by the ter.
ritorial officials as to whether the
invasion of this part of the Koolau
range by unlimited and irresponsible
parties is not causing great amount
of damage to the forest cover, and
! the closing of this trail has been Sc.
riously considered for this reason
alone. The recent depredations to
the hydrometric work will probably
result in the closing Of the trail with

and a guard maintained. Gates
through the barriers will be provided
with standard government padlocks
for the use of the officials whose du

It is hoped that some arrangement
can be made by which responsible
citizens may, obtain passes and con
duct tramping parties over the trail
as, from q scenic viewpoint, this trip
is the most delightful on Oahu.

al funds viii be provided BY congress
to complete the Pearl Harbof drydock
on new plans now being worked out
by board OF engineers. "A lump sum
OF $1,500,000 will be carried In the
naval appropriation bill for the pur-
pose.
The house took no action In this
matter and made no allowance for
continuing work on the big drydock.
The reason quietly given was that the
navy department officials were seek.
ing to place all responsibility for
changing plans, or continuing work
under the old ones, on congress. The
house committee on naval affairs de.
sclined to assume this responsibility
and omitted the item until such time
as the naval officials determined ex.
actly what course they desired taken.
The senate committee on naval af-
fairs did not approve of this scheme.
The members believed adequate pro
vision should be made for Fastening
the drydock to completion. For that
reason an amendment was added To
the bill as passed by the house, Civ
ing clean million and a half for per.
fecting the improvement now under
way. It was declared a certainty
that the senate would accept this con
clusion and adopt the amendment.
1t was said to be equally assured
that the house conferees on the ma
val bill would agree to the allowance
The total limit of cost on the bic
drydock, when the senate amendment
becomes a law, will aggregate 81,

On August %, 1912, the limit was
raised to $3,486, 800.
/, The original act of March 3, 1903
carried an appropriation of $1,000, ,00o
as the limit of cost for building the
drydock OF that sum 100000 was
made Immediately available.
+ The naval law of June "a, 1910, add
ed 100000 to this original sum, fix
ing the limit of cost at $2,700, 900.
