ROOSEVELT BOOST
(Special Washington correspondence of 'CHL
GARDEN ISLAND.)
Washington, D. C, May 4
The Senate Committee on Com
merce ha9 decided t include in
the rivers and harbors bill an item
appropriating $100,000 to build
the west breakwater in Kahului
harbor, Maui. A cost limit of
$250, OOf is provided, this being
the estimated cost of the completed
proiect. It is believed that the
item will be opposed when the
bill come9 back to the House, but
probably will be tetained in the
measure as it finally becomes a
law.
Friends of the Nawiliwili har
bor project do not anticipate ob
taining an appropriation in the
present bill. The fact that it is
an entirely new project and in
volves an expenditure of over a
million dollars operates against
the project.
HONOLULU HARBOR
The Acting Secretary of the
Treasury to-day transmitted a let
ter to the Speaket of the House
urging the appropriation of $32,
000, for removing and re-erecting
the wharf at the Honolulu
quatautine station. In calling at
tention to the matter, the assis
tcnt secretary states that the War
Department has a contract for
dredging in Honolulu harbor
which includes that portion of the
harbor in the neighborhood of the
quarantine station wharf, and if
there should be undue delav in
the removal of the wharf, the
holder of the dredging contract
may have a claim against the
Government for damages.
STUART AND SHAFROTH
Judge Stuart has again sent his
resignation to Stnator Shafroth
and the Senator, for the second
time, has declined to send the
resignation to the President. Sen
ator Shafroth does not care to be
mixed up in Hawaiian controver
sies and, therefore, if Judge
Stuart's resignation reaches the
President, it will have I o be
through some other agency.
NATIONAL PARK BILL
The Senate Committee on Pa
cific Islands has reported favor
ably to the Senate on the bill,
which has passed the House, pro
yiding for the establishment of a
National Park in Hawaii, and it
is believed that the measure will
pass the Senate at an early day.
