TO EXTERMINATE THE RATS
Citizens Sanitary Committee Frames
Program of Procedure.
Suggestions Approved by Board of Health
This Forenoon To Be Put Into Opera
tion In Near Future.
At a meeting of the Board of Health
this forenoon L. A. Thurston presented
tho following for the Citizens' Com
mittee In rcgnnt to rats:
Honolulu, II. I., Feb. 9, 1900.
Dr. C. B. Wood,
President Hoard of Health,
City.
Dear Sir: In pursuance with the in
timation from the Hoard of Health that
It would approve a general rat poison
ing proposition, this committee has
made Investigation as to the ways and
moans of carrying It out.
Tho amount of rat poison available
In tho city Is entirely Inadequate- to
carry out tho proposition. Tho com
mute estimate that thcro Hhould not
ho less than, say, 30,000 packages or
points of distribution, and have obtain-
ed tho following figures ns to cost:
It will tnko 2,000 pounds to furnish
material enough. Wo liavo ascertain
ed from MeBsrs. Benson, Smith & Co.
that they will furnish this amount of
specially prepared rat poison for $300.
There aro practically no containers In
town sufficient for this purpose nnd the
commlttco proposo to have Inch and
one half nuger holes bored three
fourths of an Inch Into n plcco of
board, say, thrco Inches square. Into
this hole, tho poison, consisting of a
mixture of (lour, lard and nrscnic,
flavored with rhodium, will bo placed.
Tho commlttco have, obtained figures
from the threo saw mills of tho city
and these containers can bo had at 1
to 16 cents apiece. Thirty thousand
of these nt l'i cents aplcco would be
$375. '1 his would make a total cost of
$073, exclusive of transportation. As
the containers suggested nro bulky, tho
transportation and distribution will
cost considerable. In view of this heavy
tost (and thcro docs not seem to bo
any way of lessening) and of the fact
that the tangible results of tho propo
sition may not bo la'rge. the committed
submit tho program and Its details for
your approval or otherwise, as you may
think best. We remain,
Your obedient servants,
Citizens' Sanitary Committee-.
(Signed.) L. A. THUUSTON.
In connection with tho nbovo com
munication Mr. Thurston presented tho
following program for the proposed
rat catching scheme:
PROGRAM.
All citizens are requested to coopcrato
with tho Citizens' Sanitary Commlttco
' and inspectors In the destruction of
rats, which aro known to spread
plague. In order to do this effectively
the following suggestions aro made:
TIME.
Simultaneous action should be taken
for this purpose. Thursday and Friday
afternoon and evening next, nie desig
nated as tho tlmo for action.
MEANS.
Every one who has or can obtain a
rat trap or traps Is requested to bait
and set tho samo at tho time aforesaid,
As traps nro but few and tho need is
.urgent, tho liberal use of rat poison is
recommended. All who can afford to
buy are requested to obtain the poison
themselves. Tho committee will fur
nish It freo to thoso who are uuablo to
buy and to thoso who will distribute it
whero It Is most needed. To thoso who
can pay, tho committee will furnish
poison at tho rato of live cents per
package. Tho poison urn be had of
Benson, Smith & Co, tin- Citizens'
Sanitary Commlttco or the Inspectors.
Sl'HEAI) OF 1NFOUMATION.
Each inspector or suo-lnspector is
requested to Inform tho pcoplo of their
several districts of tho time and man
ner In which tho attempt will bo mado
to destroy tho rats and to request tholr
cooperation. Tho newspapers nro
nlso requested to call dally at
tention to tho mutter. Each
Inspector is requested to canvass
Ills district ns soon as possible, and so
curo as many volunteers ni-. ho can to
assist In tho thorough distribution of
tho poison; and also to report to tho
commlttco nt ns early a dato as pos
sible, tho number of packages of poison
ho will require- in his district.
PLACING OF WATER.
Rats seek water after eating poison,
PInco water within easy access of each
package of poison so that tho rats will
, lio attracted thereto and die thcro in
stead of scattering to places whero thoy
cannot bo found.
DISPOSAL OF RATS.
Early on tho morning following each
distribution of poison, a careful search
should bo mado for dead rale, TJiq
Hoard of Health offers n rowara for
rats, but handling them is dangerous.
It Is recommended that nil irata found
bo immediately saturated with kero
sene oil and burned on thoy spot. Add
fuel enough to mako tho burning com
plete. Do not touch tho rfits. Handlo
them with sticks nnd burn tho sticks;
or with a shovel and then oxposo tho
shovel blade to tiro. If tlfo rat Is mov
ed, pour kerosene oil on tho spot whero
found and burn thoroughly.
METHOD OF DISTRIBUTION OF
POISON.
Each pnekago of ordinary rat poi
son Is nccompanlcd by directions for
Its use. Tho poison furnished by tho
commlttco will bo all prepared nnd
run Into auger holes In boards alt
ready for placing whero needed.
QUANTITY TO BE USED.
If this campaign is to bo effective,
It must bo thorough. Citizens are,
therefore, urged not to bo sparing In
tho distribution of tho poison. It Is
suggested that poison bo placed In at
least a half dozen different places
about each building and more, If the
building or ynrd Is large or likely to
bo infested with rats.
ENUMERATION OF RATS KILLED.
Many rats will doubtless cscapo and
dlo whero they cannot bo found; but
as far as practicable, Inspectors are re
quested to secure n count of the rats
killed In their respective districts.
CARE SHOULD HE USED.
Each morning after tho distribution
of poison, all remaining should be re
moved to a safo placo where It cannot
bo reached by children or valuable ani
mals. Cats, dogs and chickens should
bo confined nt tho times when distri
bution Is to take place, to prevent ac
cidents.
CITIZENS' SANITARY COMMITTEE.
APPROVAL OF THE 1JOARD OF
HEALTH.
The nbovo proposition nnd recom
mendations arc approved by tho
Hoard of Health.
(Signed.) C. H. WOOD.

FROM PANTHEON BLOCK
Residents Must Sleep at Drill Shed
Camp for a Time,
President Wood Explains Situation Will I

"I wish to have all tho pcoplo who
liavo been living In this block to tem
porarily transfer their homes to tho
Drill Shod Camp," said Dr. Wood.
"They aro expected to bo In the camp
from seven o'clock In tho evening to
5 o'clock In tho morning. This means
that they sleep nt the camp and bo ex
amined twice each day by a physician.
During tho day they can come and go
as they please.
"Under tho direction of Mr. Doylo
tho camp has been thoroughly cleansed,
cots, nettings, wash basins and all
comforts possible provided. I want
theso pcoplo to make their headquar
ters at tho camp until tho quarantine
period is passed. This In order to do-
tect any sickness, and also to allow a
thorough cleansing of tho block which
I consider nn Infected district. A res
taurant has been established at tho
camp whro tho pcoplo can board If they
wish. The charge will bo tho exact
cost to tho government. If they wish
to board at restaurants about town
they may do so.
"What I want to know Is whero
theso people nro and ho ublo to detect
any possible infection at once. If the
residents of tho block do not consent
to this plan they will liavo to go to
ono of t..o regular detention camps.
Passes will bo Issued to them so they
can go about tholr regular business,
dates will bo put In tho fenco about
tho block so that tho residents can go
In and got whatever Is necessary. I
want ns little taken nway as possible.
" Iwlsh all thoso living nt tho block
to report at tho drill shed at 7 o'clock
this evening to liavo their names regis
tered and receive passes."

bulletin board shows another
clean record today. This Is the
third day slnco tho appearance
of tho last caso of plague at
any placo In Honolulu. There
was n scaro aboard tho Wala
leale last night, a native sailor
having been taken down with

case of plague. Dr. Wood

The general health of tho camp at
Walakamllo Is good. Thero have been
several births during the past week.
Dr. Garvin moved out to the camp
yesterday to assist Medical Superin
tendent Dr. Howard. Dr. Davis was
moved Into town.
Tho fumigating nnd bathing opera

As somo of tho houses at tho camp
are not full there will bo more of a
concentration In n day or so In order
that four or five houses may bo left for
emergencies.
There wns n fight among n couple
of Chinamen nt tho camp yesterday.
Had It not been for tho prompt Inter
ference of ofllclnls, a general row might
liavo been precipitated.
Threo of tho guards at the camp have
been dismissed on account of nn In
fringement of tho rules.
There Is n crazy man among tho
opium fiends who Is giving tho officials
a lot of trouble. Ho Is quartered In n
tent within tho cnclosuro of tho houso
In which the "fiends" are quartered,
but ho spends very llttlo tlmo there.
Last night ho nttemttted to tear tho
skin off one of his fingers by means of
n nail.
Tho opium smokers nt tho camp nro
furnished with opium every other day
Tho amount Is not very great but It Is
sufficient to carry them through.
Condemned to Be Burned
At a meeting of tho Board of Health
yesterday Mr. Smith called attention to
an advertisement In ono of tho papers
of the sale of tho old buildings on King
street, between Fort nnd Bethel. Presl
dent Wood Instructed Engineer Cou
sins to mnko an Inspection of tho placo
and report. Mr. Cousins hns sent tho
following to President Wood:
"President Board of Health: In ac
cordance with your Instructions, I
have examined tho buildings on King
street, belonging to tho Austin Estate.
' Theso buildings should bo taken
down and destroyed by fire, thereby
preventing any of tho material being
used, In or on any building In any way
whatsoever. Tho material Is old and
full of dry rot, nnd thoroughly rotten
and lilthy throughout.
"It could not well bo burnt ns It now
stands, wltnout danger to tho adjoin
ing building. Therefore, It ought to
be removed to a safo placo and thero
burnt. W. II. COUSINS,
"Sanitary Engineer."
dticU Atkinson's Proposition.
Mr. Lowrey brought up nt yester
day's meeting of the Hoard of Health
a proposition made by A. L. C. Atkin
son, superintendent of tho kerosene
warehouso detention enmp. Mr. At
kinson biiggested that, when tho de
tention camp Is no longer used for
quarauttno purposes tho wnrchouso It
self bo turned Into a hospital for In
curables, ns an Institution of this kind
is very much needed In Honolulu. Tho
hospltnl could bo put In churgo of tho
City i iiyslclan and Mr. Atkinson him
self guaranteed to procure funds
enough from public spirited men for
tho employment of n trained nurse. .
rr'shlcnt Wood's Statement.
Seen in regard to tho recent notion of
tho Hoard In tho matter of opening tho
churches, schools and tho Orpheum,
President Wood had tho following to
say this forenoon: "Tho Hoard kept
getting requests from various pcoplo to
open theso places nnd wo, seeing tho
community seemed to bo In favor of
such notion, acted accordingly. Many
complained that, If tho saloons were al
lowed to open, thero was no reason why
tho churches, schools and Orphoum
should not open. Of courso, had not
tho Hoard considered this measuro safe,
wo would not liavo acted as wo did."
Oi'plicum to Open Monday.
At a meeting of tho Board of Health
yesterday afternoon President Wood
read a communication from Manager
Cohen of tho Orpheum, asking that
that placo of amusement bo allowed to
open again Monday night. Thero was
no discussion whatever. Mr. Lowrey
moved that tho request bo granted, it
was seconded and then pnssed unanimously.
Opening of Schools,
Secretary Rodgors of tho Department
of Education will furnish tho Board
of Health with a list of all the schools
In Honolulu, with n request to bo In
formed, formally, what ones nro not In
Infected districts and thereforo per
mitted to open. The secretary believes
thcro nro none In infected districts,
slnco tho burning of Knumakaplll
school and Its branch In tho basement
of Knumakaplll church. When ho re
ceives tho Board's reply, tho secretary
will Issue n notice accordingly.

While L. A. Thurston was at the
Hoard of Health meeting this fore
noon ho spoko of different people who
had been found rummaging In the
ruins of condemned buildings In Chi
natown nnd offered n regulation mak
ing any further Infringements of tho
kind punishable by law In the sum of
$100. The Hoard adopted this ns a
regulation of the Hoard of Health. No
tices In five languages will bo posted
throughout tho Infected district.
Trunk- Breaker Caught.

Mr. Hitting, attorney for defendant
in Republic vs. Marshall, libel, caused
subpoenas to bo Issued at 2:45 p. in.
yesterday, for Captain John II. Hinder,
Purser E. Lack Goodrich and Surgeon
Dr. Mnlonoy of tho O. & O. S. S. Coptic,
to appear In court ut 10 o'clock on Mon
day next to testify for defendant.
Officer Harry Evans went out In u
boat, on tho arrival of tho steamer, and
..ollocd tho Bervlco of tho writ to Cap
tain Hinder and his two olllcers. Tho
commander said at first ho did not
til thoy could give their evidence- In
11am If. Marshall. Then, when told
that tho case somewhat concerned
Chief Justice Judd Who had been a
passenger In tho Coptic, Captain Kin
der replied that he was not coin lug
ashoro hero anyway.
Even If thcro was no quarantluo of
the port, tho Coptic witnesses could
only obey the mandate by cither leav
ing tho ship or detaining her hero un
til they could glvo their evidence In
court. If the court wcro sitting and
tho case on trial whllo tho vosscl was
making her usual call, It Is HKcly their
examination would not unduly detain
tho steamer. Tho existing clrctim
stances, however, Indlcnto that tho
court will not do nny business for nt
least another week.
In the meantime, ns lnw Is law, If tho
captain, purser nnd surgeon of tho Cop

court.

MONEY FOR CUSTOM HOUSE
Extra Force May Be Retained for Re
mainder of the Month.
Minister Damon Advances Funds Through Bishop
& Co. Difllcullles In Many Departments
Need for Definite Information.
t the Cabinet mectluc this mornlnc
Minister Damon informed Collector
General Stackablo that ho could con
tinue the services of all employes of
tho Custom Itoit8o up to and Including
Feb. 28. Unless orders nro given to
tho contrary every employe's salary in
excess of tho appropriation for tho
month of March must stop on tho 2Sth
of February. Until that tlmo Mr. Da
mon will provide tho funds necessary
for tho payment of theso pcoplo, nnd
tako chances with tho Legislaturo for
reimbursement.
Thus tho dllllcultlcs at tho Custom
House duo to Increased work and short
age of appropriation Is tided over for
tho remainder of tho month of Febru
ary. Minister Damon speaking of tho situ
ation to n Bulletin representative said,
"it lias necn the custom of thirty ye-iru
past for Bishop & Co. to meet the re
quests of ono ministry after another
to advance money for tho government
when appropriations have run out nt
the end of a period. In each lustnnco
tho Legislature has made good the
funds thus paid out.
'In tho present instance Bishop &
Co. has nlready advanced during the
period money for the Post Office, elec
tric light, works.customhouse and steam
tug pay roll something over $13,090.
Had this deficiency not been made up
In this way a good part of tho work of
tho departments would bo seriously
crippled. Wo cannot ppend from pub
lic funds, mora Until Is authorized by
tho Legislature. The Immense Increueo
of work has created a condition that
no ono could foresee. Money must bo
forthcoming from Borne source.
"Tho prnctlco In tho United Stales is
tliut when an appropriation gives out
tho work stops. It may bo hcBt to fol
low tho same courso here. On tho other
hnnd wo cannot nlTord to tlo up the tug
Eleu for Instance, as would be tho case
should wo depend solely upon tho legis
lative appropriation.
"lu view of tho serious situation at
the Custom Houso I have decided to
advmico u sufficient amount of money
to allow all custom houso work to go
on up to the end of this month. Then,
unless wo get some Instructions as to
the Legislature or positive Information
to guide future action, I cannot assume
further responsibility.
"If any other bank or business house
desires to furnish this money and tako
tho chances, they have n fre"o field.
"What wo need is positive Informa
tion from Washington relative to legis
lative authority."
A Hungry Clitnnman.
A telephone messago was received
from W. R. Castle at tho Boartl of
Health olllco this morning telling of a
very sick Chinaman who was found in
tho Btreot at tho corner of Victoria and
Luualllo at about 8: 30 o'clock. Tho
poor fellow was unablo to walk and ho
gavo every appearance of serious ill
ness. Tho ambulance was 'summoned
at ouco and, in company with Dr. Da
vis and Health Agents Reynolds and
Charlock, It proceeded to tho place.
Upon arrival thero It was found that
tho Chinaman was so weak that every
tlmo ho attempted to rise, he fell down.
Dr. Davis gavo It as his opinion that
tho p&or fellow was Buffering from tho
want of nourishment and Indeed tho
Chinaman's story tallied with this. Ho
stated that ho had been an employe of
Hop Lee who used to do business at
tho corner of Maunakea and King
streets, In tho Infected district. Ho had
no homo nnd, for tho past four or live
nights, had been forced to sleep lu
Thomas Square. No food had passed
his lips for a long tlmo. Tho China
man was at once placed lu tho ambu
lance and taken to tho relief camp
whero ho will remain until a placo Is
found for him.
Tho appearance of tho nmbulanco
wagon lu tho vicinity mentioned above
caused a lot of peoplo living near by
to become very much frightened but,
as soon as tho opinion of tho doctor
wns learned, they wero very much re
lieved. Y. At. C. A. Notes.
Tho V. M. C. A. opened again this

There will ho a meeting of tho Board
