sit company.
Members of the utilities commission
yesterday afternoon made public the
news, as having come in n despatch
from superintendent Of Public Works
Forbes, now in Washington on business
connected with this measure and with
other Territorial matters. Nothing how.
ever was said regarding the amendment
TO the measure, either because Mr.,
Forbes omitted IL, or because officials
wished TO keep the matter secret for a
time. Word from unofficial bnt reliable
sources in direct touch with the capt.
tol, revealed the facts.
The action Of the house Of reprcsen.
tatives in including the railroads, and
rapid transit company in the terms OF
the bill was not unexpected here, but
that the Inter-Tsland steam navigation
company should have been included by
name, as the report afIirms the house
has done, wasra distinct surprise to
those 'on the insiden in the city.
Act l35, passed by the last legisla.
tnre but one aud approved by Governor
Frear April %, 1913, provides that the
public utilities commission shall have
jurisdiction over the franchises Of the
following corporation and companies in
the Territory;-The Honolulu Gas CON.

the Standard, now the Mutual telephone
company, the Island Electric company,
the Lahaina Ice company, the Hawaii
railway company and the Hilo traction
company. As it stands amended by
congress, the bill also includes all rail
ways, the Honolulu rapid transit com
pany and the Interisland company.
The reasonableness Of all rates,
charges and prices imposed by these
concerns are under the control of the
commission.

II AWAIIANS OF lao
III ESCAPE FLOODS

News of the disaster on Maui, where.
in a dozen or more persons lost their
lives, was received. with great deal
of interest in the native communities
on the wipdward side of Oahu. AT
Punaluu the Hawaiians say that the
natives on Maui, and particularly those
living in the lao Valley, knew that
there was going Ito be. great food
and sought refuge in places Of safety
accordingly. ~
81 get letter from my old friend at
Wal ee yesterday said one venerable
Hawaiian, "and he tell me too much
pilikia rain in lao. He say every Ha
waiian man know big storm coming
and that they 60 tell Portuguese,
Filipino, Japanese, Chinaman and every
other man, more better run away from
that place because mahope too much
water come and suppose they stop ma.
hope. many man make. t53
8 These people, my friend write, no
believe the Hawaiians, but stay right
IN that bad place. Bimeby rain come
like one wall and too much people
make. The Hawaiians run away. Some
leave their house, their pig, their
chicken, and my friend write me not
one of those Hawaiian people get

Asked how II was that the Hawai-,
ians knew that there was going to be a
storm and food, the old native said
that the natives are weather-wise over
and above all other races ami that be
side this s'there was sign" the ma
,ture of which he would not discuss.
4 II is certain that the natives are
able to fOrtell with great accuracy
the advent Of bad weather. Some
times when storm threatens from
seward and those on shore think that
II is going 10 break over the land,
the fishermen along the reef continue
their ayOcation, regardless of atmos.
pheric conditions. And nearly always
the threatened storm passes by or
peters out insignifcantly. Then, again,
sometimes cloud athe size of man 3
hand will come over the horizon, and
without apparent reason the Hawaiian
fisherman will hasten TO shore.
In the majority of eases the insig-
nifeant cloud speedily assumes large
proportions, to be followed sometimes
by downpour, and sometimes a

A great many natives in the country
districts expect that there will be an
outbreak Of MokuaWeoweo or an erup-
tion of Kilauea before very long. They
say that the big water has in years
gone by always been followed by the
big fire,
z Quite number Of Hawaiians explain
this by saying that all the Waterfront
the rain that goes into the earth flows
to a common center in the Volcanic

will find vent by means of eruption.
Louis Won Tempsky, the Kula Tancher,
recently reported that the II. A. Wad-
sworth home in the mountains of Kula
was very badly wrecked by the late

been in existance in the district for
fifty years have been entirely washed
