An entirely new Rapid Transit fran
chise plan developed late yesterday
afternoon at a meeting of the street
railway company's directors at which
were present on invitation of the COM
pany tie members of the territorial
public utilities commission.
The plan is to abandon the efforts
to put the 1913 charter extension bill
through Congress, and to secure the
enactment Of new bill, much SIM
plif.ed, which Is to have the backing
of the company, the commission and
the governor
President L.. T. Peck of the Rapid
Transit Company said this morning
that the disposition of the company,
so far as he can say without more for
NAL action than has been taken, is to
cooperate with the commission in
drafting a charter bill along the lines
now proposed.
Chairman Forbes of the commits
sion, and its counsel, James L. Coke,
are plainly much encouraged over the
outlook Both said this morning that
they believe the plan should 60
through.
As a result of yesterdays meeting
and some preliminaries which have
been going quietly along for couple
of days, a committee from the Rapid
Transit directorate will meet with the
public utilities commission at the COM

BE ENDED soon

Officials In the Office OF United
States Engineers stated this morning
.thath dredging operations at Kahalui,
Maui, now under way by the Kahului
Railway Company are practically COM
plete and will be ended by May 1.
The contract, which calls for the re-
moval OF $4,000 cubic yards Of earth
from the harbor bottom, covers work
on the west side of the harbor and
will be big help in allowing big ves-
sells to take inner berths which are
well protected by the breakwater.
Maintenance of the harbor is to be
covered in an item of $4,000 In the
rivers and harbors bill now pending
before Congress.
At Hilo the contractors are said to
be making splendid progress in trans
porting rock from Waipio quarry to
the breakwater being built there. Dur
ing the last month 5399 tons of rock
we're placed on the big project, and at
present the breakwater extends 3287
feet in length.
The tug Printer, which as been used
for towing rock from the quarry Is in
the local drydock just now being over
hauled, but will be out In few days.
George r. Marshall, contractor, is in
Honolulu also. He will return to Hilo
next Wednesday on the Mauna Kea.

SCHoFIELD HARRACKS, April 21.
One of the mdstA Interesting occur
rences at Schotjkld this week has
been the target practise of Battery
C with the big 47-inch siege rifles,
throwing 60-pound shell and shrapnel
at targets 300 to 5000 yards away,
about four and half miles.
Two problems were fired by Capt.
]. w. Kilbreth, Jr., on Tuesday, the
firing point being near Wahiawa and
the targets at the foot of the Waianae
range. The trajectory passed about a
half mile over the county road, but
by system of signals the guns were
not fired while any automobiles or
wagons were travelling along the road
in front of the guns. The screech of
the shells could be heard at Schofield
and sounded as if they we're passing
directly over the post, though the line
of fire was more than a quarter of a
mile away from the buildings.
One of the targets was target
butt of the old rifle range, which was
assumed to represent an enemy's
trench. Of the Is shells fired at this
target, two by their delayed action
