 UPSET BUSINESS
 IN OLD HAWAII
Extra Session of Legislature May Be Necessary to Provide Funds
 For Repairs.

HONOLULU, T. H-An extra ses- sion of the territorial legislature seems likely in the immediate future to make an emergency appropria- tion available for the island of Hawaii to repair the tremendous havoc wrought by recent storms. As a result bridges were destroyed, roads washed out and hundreds of acres of cane and rice lands flooded, the damage totalling $2OO,OOO or more.
 Transportation around the island, which is almost wholly by vehicle is tied up, the roads being impossible. The gale is the worst that has visited the big island in half a century.
 To prevent additional losses thru failure to get ripening crops to market, an extra session is impera- tive so that money for other pur- poses may be made available for the repairs. To accomplish this, it is necessary to amend an appropria- tion act passed by the 1917 legis- lature as the territory has no emergency fund.
 It is planned to have the session last but five days, all senators and representatives to donate their sal aries to the Red Cross, which would approximate $9,00O.
 The U. s. District Attorney has suggested that if the session is call ed, special legislation be enacted to give the territorial courts authority to handle certain kinds of anti American acts.

WATERS OF NENANA
 CAUSE BIG WASHOUT

News of serious washout on the Government railroad at point on the completed track, approximately one mile to the south of Bailey station, was received by the officials of the Alaskan Engineering commis- sion yesterday, and gangs of men, have been diverted from other branches of construction work to remedy the damage done and permit of resumption of train service.
 It is expected that llne, to go around the gap caused by the wash out, will be constructed as soon as possible, and that train service to Camp 15 will be resumed tomorrow.
 All of Foreman Lees gang who were engaged in surfacing work, as we'll as the section gangs, have been put on to repair the damage and it is confidently expected that ser vicable line of temporary character will soon be constructed and in working shape.
 The spot where the washout oc- cured showed signs of weakness some time ago, and shortly after tke breakup large quantity of logs, brush and bags filled with dirt WIS placed in position in an effort to prevent bank erosion.
 Indications pointed to the fact that the insidious action of the en- croaching waters steadily cut into the bank at the base and gradually undermined the section of land on which the grade had been built with the result that a large portion of the grade collapsed entirely and was

OF COMMISSION
 SLATED FOR PROMOTION

The following employees of the Alaskan Engineering commission have been recommended for promo tion, which will go into effect as soon as they have been approved by Mir. Frederick D. Browne, en- gineer in charge of this division:
 MT. G. L. Hall to be receiving and forwarding agent, vice c. H. Hall, transferred to disbursing office.
 E. J. Cronin to be warehouse fore man.
 J. Russell Walle, to be head book keeper in the store department, vice M. R. Healy, who has resigned his position.

washed away, leaving the rails and ties suspended in the air.
 As soon as possible gangs of men were put on to throw the line back to the new grade now in course of construction to carry it.
 If the plans of the Commission are not changed and it is decided to continue construction along the line located by Bailey, it is though prob able that bank protection works On large scale will have to be under taken, piling driven for a consider able distance parallel with the track and the space between the TOW of piling and the grade filled in with durable material to withstand the action of the waters.
 The Nenana river in the neigh borhood of the washout swings sharply in the direction of the grade with the full force of the current bearing on the bank close to the grade. Temporary measures, with view of breaking the force of the current, it is thought will not be sufficient, as the river at this point will remain a constant menace with every recurring breakup and attend ant floods.
 Should it be finally decided that the new survey line be chosen for the construction of the grade, the starting point of the road on the new location will be several miles below this washout and further dam age from this source in the future will not be possible.
