A COMMUNICATION.
Editoii Evenino Bulletin:
Sir: Will you ploaso publish tho
following, relative to my commu
nication which you published in
your issue of ilia 5tb inst.
In that communication I mado
this 3tatomont: "With roferonce
to tbo statement of President Dole
that tho failure of the second com
pany to have their proposition be
fore tho Government provious to
its acceptanco of the proposition
of tho first Company was their
misfortune,, certainly tho opportu
nity of considering both projects
at tho same tirao would have beeu
most valuable
"Tho following U a statement
of fact as agroed to by Minister
Uooper and submitted to tbo Ua
binet on May '25, 1899. It shows
that twenty-ono days beforo tho
Government onterod into tho
Hilo Railroad contraot we request
ed verbally and iu writing that
wo bo allowed to appear and placo
our proposition beforo tho Execu
tive Council. This request was
not granted to us and now wo are
told wo aro too late."
I regrot to learn that tho fore
goiog Btatoment, together with the
copy of the letter, is regarded as
misloding and calculated to ro
fldct unjustly upon the Govern
ment. I wish to state that thoro was
no intention of doing injustice lo
tho Government, but merely to
stnto tho facts as I understood
thorn; that from tbo information
I had received tho impression
mado upon me wbb, that while
the Government had practically
agreed to tho proposition of tho
Hilo Railroad Company, tho pa
pora had not been signed, and
that it was not too late to havo our
proposition considered.
In my intorviow with Attorney
Gonoral Coopor on Tuesday,
March 23, I stated to Mr. Coopor:
" Wo would liko to be beard by
tho Cabinot before the papors are
signed tor tiie uilo llailroad poo
Mr. Coopor replied: "I don't
think tho Cabinot would caro to
make a dolay, but that need make
no dilicronca witu your plans.
You cau filo your papors at any
timo, aud as 1 told you yesiorJay
morning, we aro not giving thorn
any exclusivo franchise."
I replied: "Vory woll. We
will go ahead jnst the same. I will
see you again and would liko to
have Mr. Brown meot you. Do
you think that Iho matter will bo
taken up nnd tho papers signed
Mr. Coopor replied: "Thore is
no regular mooting of the Cabinot
this mdrniui,'. The nanora havo
not beeu signed, but the mattor
may be closed up at any timo, as
it has practically seen settled on."
I asked Mr. Cooper further if I
could havo a copy of tho contract
with tbo othor Company.
Ho replied that after tho papers
were signed I could huvo a copy.
Thore has been no intention to
do iujustioe to President Dolo or
tbo Government, but I cortainly
thought until tho papors wore
signed that there would bo oppor
tunity for tho presentation of our
matter.

After sotting forth bis side of
tbo caso and the action takon by

" In tbo prosecution of Uarroira

" That the information laid

REPLY OP HERBERT B. GEHR.
Reply to Mr. Dillingham's Latter
Withdrawing Opposition.
Mr. Bonjamin F. Dilliugham,
Presidont of tho Hilo Railroad
Company in bis letter withdraw
ing objections to tbo uranliuo of a
second franohiso states: "Tim
undersigned desire to avail thom
solvos of this opportunity to dony
most emphatically the truth of
certain statements mado by Her
bert 8. Gohr in tho Evkning
Bulletin of Juue 5lh, and espe
cially of tho statements that,
'twenty-ono days beforo tho Gov
ernment entered into tho Hilo
Railroad Contract wo requested
vorbally nnd in writing that wo
be allowed to appear and placo
our proposition before tho Execu
tive Council.'
Tho fact is, tho contract with
this Company waB signed by the
mombors of tbo Executive Council
on March 23, tho aarao date as
its chartor. It had been nmefi.
cally agroed upon for some time
prior to this. After Mr. Mott
Smith camo into tho Cabinet,
reasons wero suggested why it
might bo advisable to ro-oxecute
tho contracted it was re-oxocuted
on tho ICth day of April."
In roply I wonld say that tho
Charter and tho Contraot wero
dated tho 18th day of April. This
fact was verified by tho President
and Members of tho Executive
Council by reference to tho docu
ments during tho discussion ot
the matter, and through nil nf
thoso interviews at which not only
the ProsHent and Members of tho
Executivo Council wero present,
but also members and counsel of
tho Hilo Railroad Company and
members and counsel of our Com
pany, nothing to the conlrory was
.Bugcettcd. j..-
lf tbo papers were exroutod on
some day prior to. tho 18th day oE
April and afterwnrdo changed,
that fact was within tbo knowl
edge of tho mombers of the Ex
ecutive Council, but there was
oothing to suggest it lo ua. In
fnc, it wai not m'H IttTiU-y,
tho 10th day of June, whon Mr.
Dilltngham'B lottor was read by
Presidont Dolo at n mooting of
thoExocutive Couucil, at which.
uiuiuuers 01 our uompany woro
present, that any chaugo in tho
dato was mentioned.
In my former arliclo I endeav
ored carefully not to misstate or
over-stalo any of tho foots connect
ed with the case, and mv Htntn-
ments woro all based noon mutters
of record and information from
tbo Executive Oonncil.
President Dojo, himsolf, in tho
article published over bis own
n'g nature, verifies my statement,
as ho says: "On tho 18th day o
April tho Hilo Railroad Company
entered iuto an agreement with
tho Ministor of tho Interior under
a Charter of Incorporation of tho
same dato for tho construction of
railroads on Hawiii including a
lino through Hilo, Hutnakut and
Kohala."
If Mr. Dillingham will point
out nny other of tho certain etatc-
montB" which ho donies the truth
of, wo will bo pleased lo anewor
him. His assertion having gono
to tho public, it is duo us 'that ho
should verify his statements; "
