Kewalo hare never been accented and cannot be until raised to grade. All tho Executive can do Is to back up tho Board of Health In refuting building permits In that addition until the 'grades ar crnlscd and compliance made generally with sanitary regulations. V J,r' S'cCandlesa brought up a mat AJter of partiality In the treatment of two U steamship lines. Tho Pacific Mall has ( been charged wharfage, rent of coal V itorago and pilotage right along, while tho Oceanic has! paid no dues of these kinds since 1S8C. This favor wnB part of tho mall subsidy agreement with the Oceanic line enacted by the Legisla ture. It was decided In council that the Oceanic Steamship Co. should pay tho same charges as other companies for prh lieges received alike, dating from Juno 14, 1900, when nil mall ar rangements came under tho control of tho UnltecJ Stntcs Government.

The arrangement made by tho 3u pcrlntendent of Public Works to lnvo Vincent, Ilelser & Co. superintend tho completion of the outfall sewer was up proved. That firm gets a percentago on the cost and Is to make Its own nr rangement for wages of labor. The agents of the Boston btilldln; nro promised leave to connect with the sewers about November 1. The difficulty with the Oahu Railway S. Iind Co. over the obstructions to public traffic made by their wharf con structlon was brought up. All the agreements and plans wero discus ml over again. It was decided that In the absence of expected Instructions from Vasblngton the Executive, will take some action subject to approval, later, of the Federal Government.

E They Resolve to Resist Encroachments of Drummers. HAWAIIAN PROTECTIVE LAW DEEMED Y01D Merchants Not Opposed to Commercial Travelers as Such but to Illegi timate Meddling with Local Trade. Tho wholesale trade of Honolulu has declared a war of defense against com mercial drummers from tho Mainland. About 24 firms, practically all the lead ing wholesalers and Jobbers, hnve slgi ed a resolution formulated In confer ence, to tho effect that they will place. no orders with traveling salesmen. Ed. H. Paris, secretary of commit tee, is having tho resolution' printed. What ho says of the matter covers all tho several representatives of Import ing houses have, said to a Iiullctln re porter. "It Is not that wo aro shutting down on traveling salesmen as such," says Mr. Paris, "but upon tho methods they have been pursuing. "Probably CO to 100 drummers, rep resenting manufacturers and whole salers, come hero for business. Aftsr securing tho legitimate trndo of local importers. perhaps they aro dissatisfied and go to the consumers for orders so as to Increase their commissions. They do not securo the business as a rule, but by their quotations they an tagonize locjil dealers and tho custom ers of tho latter. "These travelers do not pay tho high business license that local houses do, they have no stocks to carry, nor clcik lilro or taxes to pay. "In our rfHoliitlon wo do not say e will withdraw our trndo from houses we have been dealing with, but only 'tlioHo. whoso agents quoto to our customers and local consumers. The signers reservo tho right to transact business with manufacturers who hao sole agents here." Asked If anything was said about making a test of the old Hnwnllan law Imposing a license fee upon commercial travelers selling "forolgn" merchan dise, Mr, Paris said; "No. We hayo an Impression that the Interstate Commerce Act makes that law void." . .
