which Austria Hungary is carrying on

Forbes Asks Harbor Board To

fA A resolution urging congress to take
immediate action to extend and protect
the arbor Of Nawiliwili will be present,
ed TO the board Of harbor commission,
ers and adopted at its next regular
meeting, in accordance with motion
put and carried by the board yesterday.
The action came up In CONNECTION
with the report Of Charles r. Forbes,
chairman Of heycomhiission, on bis re-
cent visit Of : inspection TO Kauai.
Forbes Inspected the various whafyes
on the island, and said, regarding the
Nawiliwili wharf:
81 would recommend that the board

gress the imperative need Of better
protection at Nawiliwih tt#t
With the proposed road to Nawili.
will there Is every reason TO believe
that this will become an important
port Of commerce. "
The debate that resulted brought up
the report of several years ago Of the
federal engineers in regard TO break.
water at Nawiliwili. Commissioner
Mccarthy was Of the opinion that tho
p0NEu NuOulu aNCtOulAiAtuu W NuGa ltKlHli-
ture that that body once more urge
upon congress the claims Of the port
II was finally agreed, however, that no
harm could result from the board itself
|petitioning congress to Begin the har
Dor work at Nawiliwili. So
Chairman Forbes in his report said
regarding the waimea wharf, that on
the occasion Of his visit there, Novem.
Der 3, he was informed that the work
would be completed within o week
The track had been laid and the piles
cut on. zg Y .
Regarding the Nawiliwih wharf. he
said he had instructed the contractor
to proceed with the work. He also roe
commended the installation of n new
fve,ton stiff legged derrick.
The Hanalei wharf, the chairman re-.
ported, is in need of some immediate
repairs. The new shed is we'll built
and is being wen patronized. =. .. .
Forbes called the boards attention
to the inability Of the Kappa merchant,
TO have freight delivered from the
Kealia wharf. This, he said, was or
account of question that had arisen
between the railroad and the inter
NIhIt aGOtHUltTGt COHlIllsSloU TtldllNb u
the status of the railroad as a common
carrier. The interstate commerce com
mi ssion held that the railroad was 4
common carrier and the railroad tool
the opposite view, and, in support ,ot
it's contention, discontinued the deliv
cry of freight from the Kcahn whart
to the Kapaa stores. J.
The chairman recommended that SOM
steps be taken to offer relief. TO. tn
Kapaa, merchants, and suggested tn
condemnation of the present wharf "a
Kealia with view Of having it undel
the control of the board, WHEREBY
the public would be benefited. J."
The board granted a request of tn,
Lord Young Engineering Company TO
a thirty day extension of time, with
out penalty, in which to complete tn,
work on the Nawiliwii wharf. Discus

tractor was not to blame for non com

MURRAY lSUBG|Ne
Manager Of Water Department
Wants Special Election Held
On Matter He Calls Vital

cit is my opinion that the bond Is.
sue should be put up again 70 the peo-
pie of Honolulu. !,
This Is the stand taken by Harry r.
Murray, manager Of the water depart
ment, who believes that the bond Issue
was defeated at the recent election be.
cause the voters did not understand
the purpose Of the bonds. rs
\ While sixty per cent of the votes
east were not in favor Of the bonds,
IL is pointed out BY Murray that If the
election had been simply for the bonds
the result would have been different. A
great many persons who voted did not
vote for the bonds at all and those
counted against the result. rs
II is Murray's intention TO collect q
mass Of data which he will present at
an early meeting Of the supervisors
with request that they call for anoth.
er election on the bond issue. This
election, he declares, should not be held
in conjunction with the spring election,
but should be separate affair so that
the voters can register their opinion
on the matter without confusion,
Murray is also Of the opinion that
practically all of the 1880, 900 should
be devoted 20 water and sewer i'm
provements. These are matters, he
said yesterday, that are fundamental
and should receive immediate atten
ton: He would put in q sewer system
in Kewalo district Punahou, Kalihi
Iwilei and Waikiki. These improve
ments will cost approximately $272.000
The filtration plant, another necessary
improvement, will cost $3.50, 900, Irhi,
with leave $5aOO0 to be used for ex
tensions of the water system. n 4
One of the arguments that Murray
advances Is that il viii cost sixty pei
cent more to put in the sever pipes
after the grading Of streets has beer
done. He believes that this worl
sh0uld be finished in advance of al
other contract work, and with the in
stallation of the vitrified pipe tn,
sewer system will be made permanent
It is the intention of Murray not only
to present data to the board of super
lvisors but to circulate petition in th,
various districts TO learn the wishes o.
the people themselves. - '.H
