Supervisors Will Pay Only One
Third of Cost; Owners Have
Choice of Material

Although further hearing of the Ka
lakaua avenue Improvement project
was postponed at a late hour last
night by the supervisors, the dis
cussions over the whole situation
settled several questions.
Supervisors and property owners
are coming to an understanding OF
each others ideas in the matter. The
supervisors will stand stanchly for
payment OF but one-third OF the cost
Of Improvement and most OF the prop
erty owners will back them in this.
while as far as the style OF pavement
Is concerned, the property owners are
to have just what they wish and just
as soon as possible.
Three main protests were filed. One
band Of residents desired that the city
should pay at least half the cost Of
Improvement; another protested mere.
~ against concrete, desiring warrenite
or bitulithic instead, and third pro
tested against concrete and thought
the city should pay at least so per
cent.
Practically "a per cent of the prop
erty owners made up a total OF those
filing protests, but most OF these mere
ly asked for postponement until
such time as they could get Kalakaua
residents together and decide upon'th
style OF pavement They did not ask
that the city pay more than third
of the cost OF improvement
e. w. Sutton represented the pro-
testing residents, and explained that
the majority did not favor concrete,
but desired TO make a decision be-
tween bitulithie and warrenite.
Give Owners What They Want.
Supervisors Logan and Single led
the board In standing firm for
a payment of only one-third. but
was willing TO grant the postponement
so that the property owners could
reach their decision Single en-
phasized the need of giving the
property owners the style Of pave
ment they want.
Logan also was willing to grant the
postponement. but declared he would
fight the so per cent project. Holm
ger also voiced his feeling against the
so per cent plan, and Larsen declared
he would vote for concrete base no
matter what IL was covered with.
Several engineers followed in turn.

G.. H. Gere, superintendent OF the

crete used in the states. and advised
concrete from four to eight inches
thick with O covering from one-half
to two inches thick.
c. G. BalIehtyne. manager OF the
Honolulu Rapid Transit Company.
urged the board to consider that the
same rule does not apply TO all por-
tons Of the city. Some streets such
as King extension probably have snf-
hcient subgrade Of coral TO hold nm a
bitulithic surface, while others made
up Of taro patch mud would require
concrete. Drainage Is also very es-
sential, he said. He thought Kala-
kaua ought to be tested thoroughly as
to soil conditions. the first essential
being always good foundation.
p. @. Riley. representing the Beach
walk residents JUST OF Kalakaua ave
nue., stated that nis people had set
tied upon concrete for their district
which could be used as a base to cover
later with something else II desired
The Beachwalk project, as favored by
the residents, was generally approved.
Sutton again reminded the board
that 81 per cent OF the residents want
bitulithic or warrenite.
Supervisor Single then moved that
the board amend the Kalakaua ave-
nue. Improvement project to read "bi-
instead OF concrete" but
leave the one-third pavement method
intact, setting the new hearing on Feb
ruary Is. The motion carried and the
hearing was then closed as far as the
city's share or payment is concerned.
As the hour was. late by this time
an extension IN the time for King ex.
tension hearing was made until Feb,
ruary 3. The feeling was expressed
last night that this .LeariHg will not

until Friday, February 4, in order that

Decision to postpone the case was
made by the supervisors last night

L. J. Warren. secretary Of the Manoa
Improvement Club, stating that two
banks of the city have declared their
readiness to take up the Manoa bonds

Ecuse bill No. 1865. known as the.
Smit:; bill. This bill brings the rscla-
nation service of the government in
full harmony~with the irrigation dis
trict plan.
1T subjects the land, the title to
which may still remain in the United
States. to liens for irrigation district
purposes, requiring thereby that all
lands. whether entered or unentered
public lands. bear their share Of the
burdens OF construction, operation
and maintenance charges Of the pro-
ject included within the district. ex-
tending the taxing power of the dis
trict not only to the entered lands for
which no title has been procured, bur
to the unentered lands as well. The
lien created by the organization OF q
district for construction and operation
purposes will follow the lands, and
when entry Is made. or when patent
Is secured for the entered lands. tho
entryman will thus be required to
share the burdens with all others In
the project included within the dts
trict. Furthermore, all private land
holdings within the district, whether
subscribed to the payment of water
right charges or not. will, with all
other lands, entered or unentered, be-
come subject to taxation for the pay
ment OF their share Of construction
and other expenses.
1T will thus be seen that the lrri~
cation district system will necessarily
reduce the pro rata cost of construc-
tion and operation and maintenance
to all who have subscribed to
water rights under the project includ-
ed In the district.'

German Merchant Subma.
rine Leaves New London
Pier in Early Morning
With No Secrecy

New London, November II.
The Deutschland, the German SUBJ
marine, which arrived here on No
vember l, slipped out of the har-
Dor at an early hour today bound
for Bremen. She left her pocket
at the State pier at 1880 o'clock
and was towed down the harbor
by two tugs.
Capt. F. Hinsch and other Off
Gals of the Eastern Forwarding
company were on one of the tugs.
A launch filled with newspaper
men followed the submersible
down the Thames river to the
mouth of the harbor.
The Deutschland passed the
United States cruiser Columbia in,
the lower harbor at AS o'clock.
Several passing steamers and the
Columbia turned their search
lights on the boat and blew their
whistles.
While the manifest of the
Deutschland's cargo has not yet
been made public, it is estimated
that its approximate value is over
$4,000, 0G0. The cargo consists
largely of crude rubber, nickel,
zinc and silver bars. She also
carried several sacks of mail from
the German embassy at Washing
ton. Some of the mail was said
to be for the German Emperor.

that final determination may be had
near January l. when the law, unless
enjoined, becomes operative. So far as
the department is informed, the first

Democrats Are Fighting
Hard for More Seats

Washington, November 16.-No change
in the apparent political alignment of
the Sixty-fifth Congress has occurred
thus far as a result of uncompleted can
vases of the vote in close districts.
Democratic leaders who had hoped to
gain one member in the Third Louisiana
district were disappointed tonight when
announcement was made of complete Of
fetal returns showing that Whit p. Mar
tin, progressive, had been elected over
Wade Martin.
In the Tenth North Carolina district
where democratic leaders are predicting
that canvass of the returns in Buncombe
county will show Representative J. J..
Britt. republican. to have been defeated
by Zebulon Weaver. democrat, court pro-
ceedings have been instituted by the re-
publican candidate which will delay the
canvass until next week.
Representative Deakes of the Second
Michigan district, who apparently was de-
feated on the unofficial returns, tee-
graphed today that an error had been
found in jackson county, which, if cor
rected, would give him the election by
IA votes over Mark r. Bacon, republican.
In the Thirtieth Pennsylvania district to-
day the canvass showed Clyde Kelly,
progressive, gaining on William II. Cole
man, republican. and the democrats still
have some hope Of overturning the re-
suit in the Twenty-first Pennsylvania dis
trict, where c. III. Rowland, republican.
has a slight majority over William Il.
Tobias, democrat.
Tonight the new House seems to still
stand republicans. 217. democrats 2l2,
others six. If the democrats win in the
Tenth North Carolina and Second Michi-
gan districts they will have PA and the
republicans 2l5. Should Kelly and Tobias
also win in Pennsylvania the House would
