Especial Star Bulletin Correspondencel

/ Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
/ WAILUKU, Aug 13-The Maui
county supervisors have been hard at
work since Wednesday OF this week
and some of the most important mat.
tiers that the board has yet in hand
are to come up on Monday night. Nu-
merous appointments have been set
on that day for these who have any
business with the county fathers.
The most important report submit.
ted up to the present time is that
drawn up by the special committee.
consisting of David T. Fleming and
Philip Pail on the so-called Makawao
water works, or, in other words, the
famous Kula pipe line.
During the quarter just past $780,
$50 gallons of water appear charged
up to the various accounts in the sup
erintendent's books, whereas the
meter at the head of the iron pipe
near Olfnda shows that roughly l.
000. 900 gallons have passed. Only
guess work can tell where the differ
ence between these figures has gone.
Loss in the pipe line alone could not
account for such a tremendous figure.
The committee of Investigation re-
ports that deposits had not been reg
ularly made with the county treasurer
for money received from consumers,
and in fact sometimes these accounts
were three or four months in arrears.
II was a surprise to the committee to
find that for the second .qaurter In the
present year no charges had yet been
entered in the books and no money col.
lected.
Delinquent water bills remaining I'M.
paid amount to $1122.08.
Penalties have been RENTED. This
Is in direct violation of the law, and
further it was found that some of the
largest consumers had not paid to the
county according to the requirements
or the law. and the rates that had
been established. Quito a discrepancy
in this matter alone exists.
The receipts and expenditures cover
ing period of three years were also
submitted to the boardeby the special
committee. They are as follows: Re-
