Among other things Fillmore told
a graphic story of the shooting down

to be 100000. The rental set In the
lease could nd be learned, but figur-
ing from the $40 q month paid for q
60-foot strip under lease since 1910
brings it into the neighborhood OF

not thought likely that the hotel corn-
pany will make any improvements IN

the present buildings, and to move its
bath-house there as the beach is con.
coded TO be better. than that in front
of the Moana. The removal of the
dancing floor from the Moana will
give quiet to the guests who want It.
The hotel company has had a So
foot strip of land belonging to the
Hustaees under q 3O.year lease since
April !, 1910. At that time they IN.
tended to build rooming house on
the line of their property, which then
was supposed to take In the lane next
to the Moana which has since been
opened Rather than have other build
ings so close to their own the hotel
company leased the strip.
Including this strip the property to
be leased has 200-foot frontage on.
Kaiakaua avenue. and contains 80, 460
square feet. The old lease is to be
cancelled and q new one executed

"HILO. July 21.--A big scheme to

news from those interested In such q
proposition. On this island there are
several hotel owners who are pre-
pared to throw ID their lot with the
big corporation and, while taking
stock in the new concern in return for
their present businesses. they will
probably continue as managers on q
salary basis.
1T is the plan Of the promoters to
purchase several hotels on the diff

that should appeal to mainlanders and
others. The tourists would be first Of
all handled in Honolulu and then
passed on to the islands Of Maui and
Hawaii 1t is not at present figured

ION the island of Hawaii there are
several places where the new coIfs

transactions Of the kind. Hil0 and
the volcano region are also, OF course,
figured on In the general scheme.
