Want to Have AH Drays
Kept Off of Fort
Street.
CONGESTED CONDITION OF ,

Ladies Are No longer Safe on the
Thoroughfare-Merchants Express
Themselves Quite
Strongly.
it :t i
' K public opinion counts for any-
I f ' thing the heavy drays used to haul the
'tig freight of Honolulu, must be kept
' oft of Fort street. For some time past
merchants have been crumbling about
having the narrow thoroughfare block'
ed, for long periods of time' at a
stretch, not only to the detriment of
business but to the absolute danger of
ladles doing their morning shopping.
. , Fort street Is probably the principal
artery In Honolulu and at tho same
time the narrowest. Drays departing
for any Bectlon of tho city, seem de
termined to travel a snort distance any.
, way on Fort street, while other thor
oughfarcs would be much shorter and
not nearly so congested. Between the
, cars, tho buggies, nnd tho heavy teams,
Tort street Is about as crowded a
thoroughfare as one wants to meet.
When Interviewed by a Bulletin re
porter this morning all the Fort street
merchants were most emphatic in cen
suring the local teamsters and dray
men. All the gentlemen Interviewed
were In favor of forcing the draymen
off of Fort street, and suggested that
)Jllgh Sheriff Brown tako steps to ac
compllsh the desired end. Following
la what , few of the interviewed had
to say: '
Ed. Mclncrny of Mclnerny Bros. "I
I am veryl glad that the Bulletin Intends
to take up this fight. Merchants all
,," along Fort street will be greatly obllg-
'' cd to the Bulletin for Its efforts In. this
; direction, for If there Is anything that
I we shopkeepers agree upon it is this
, . , Hray question. I- am very much In fa-
L ''' vor of it. as it would, not only help tho
ladles In their shopping out would
, . creatlr relieve tho congested condl
' tlon of our streets. Wo are getting
Americanized, and In .America drays
are kept off all the principal thorough
' fares."
, F. A. Potter of Pearson & Potter
The only troublo with keeping the
drays oft Fort street is that somo wa-
gons of course deliver freight on this
thoroughfare. I'll admit that mucli un.
necessary hauljng goes on on Foit
street, anil In nine cases out of ten
goods going to tho Fort street entrance
could be taken to tho back entrance
I am heartily In sympathy with the
proposed .change, and will give It my
most nrdent support." ,
J.'JI. Webb of Golden Rule Bazaar
"That Is Just what Is needed for Fort
' street. I .have known traffic to be
blocked for half an hour many a time,
by lumber teams which were going to
the outer parts of tho (own. There
goes a dray now laden with Chinese
goods. Why could It not have gone up
I Nuuanu street Just as welljis up Fort
J street. 8uch heavy traffic Is quite bad
for the ladles."
Thomas Hobron of tho Hobron Drug
Comnany "Such a change would be of
great advantago to tho merchants. I
Bhould think that the dray companies
would f.tand In and help us out In a
matter of this kind, which Is so con
tiAry to tho wishes of the people. I am
1 Murtlly In sympathy with tho move'
oAnt and hope you will succeed. Sure'
ly the Buletln Is working 'pro bono
DUbl co.' "
I' Harry Lewis of Lewis & Co. "I do
,' . not like to antagonize anything of this
kind as a general rule, but In this case
I feel that It Is an absolute necessity
' that tho drays should be kept off Fort

I. Livingstone of Tho (Cash "It has
lately become the custom IB almost all
of the great' Arnerlcan 'cities to keep
the drays oil. the'chlef avenues and

ference to them which str'eet they take,

W. L. Fletcher of Sachs k Co. "1
say by all means keep the drays oft
Fort street. It Is too narrow for the
cars' to begin with, but when you get
the drays on the street It becomes un
bearable." '
L. D.'Greany, Treasurer of Whitney
& March "The street Is badly cut up
by the drays now. We have to pay
higher rents and taxes hero.than any
other place In town, and I think we
should get decent accommodations.
The drays are responsible for an an
nual loss to us that Is considerable. In
rainy weather no ono goes shopping
owing to the muddy condition of tho
street, which has already been cut up
by heavy teaming. I am greatly in fa
vor of keeping the drays off Fort
street,"
B. F. Khicrs & Co. "I am very much
In favor of your proposition, tor the
drays can go tho back way in almost
every case."
W. W. Hall of E. O. Hall & Son
"When tho Young's new street is open
ed, travel on Fort street will bo great
ly relieved. I nm much In favor of
helping out tho congested condition of
Fort street, and think that prohibiting
the drays from using tho thoroughfare
would greatly help the matter."

Sufficient to Kill

i i
i.i i'
Tho plea In abatement filed by the
defense In the case of Walter 0.
Smith, charged with perjury, came up
nt 10 o'clock In Judge Gear's court
Attorney I. A. Andrews, represent
ing the defendant, announced to the
court that in conference with Attor
ney General Dole It hnrl been agreed
to submit the motion without argu
ment, Mr. Andrews explained that this
vyao done In order to expedite the ma
ter and hnstcn tho trial ot the cace, v
Judgo Gear did not approvo ot this
method of disposing of tho motion. Ho
said that he did not care to make a pro
forma ruling merely for tho purpose
of having It reversed by the Supremo
Court He preferred to have tho mo
tion argued. Judge Gear said that It
was a very serious m;tlon and If made
In good faith thoulJ 1)3 argued fully by
counsel nnd should have the careful
consideration of the court. He said
tho motion attacks tho legality of tho
recent Grand Jury and trial Juries as
they are now drawn. A ruling on the
motion favorable to thf defendant
would quash all Indictments. "I will
therefore ask that the counsel argue
tho motion."
Mr. Andrews replied that the reason
a pro formn ruling woild be accept
able was that It would bring tho cast
to a trial on its merits nnd that a
speedy termination ot tho caso vwj
very much desired.
The Court replied that It, would ex
pedite tho case In every' way possible,
but considered the questions raised by
the plea in abatement ot so serious n
rharnctcr. that they should bo decided
upon their merits with nil the light ob
talnnblc. A decision on the plea was
promised by Monday or Tuesday,
It having been ruled that arguments
must be made, Andrews asked the At
torney General If he had unswered or
demurred to tho pica In abatement It
appeared that no nnswer had been
Died In tho mntter, Tho Attorney Gen
cral said that at the present moment
he knew of no reason why tho Grand
Jury was not a legal body, but would
like tlmo to prepare his reply to the
argument of defendant a counsel.
Tho opening argument was mano uy
S M. Ballon in support of the plea,
The Attorney General made an en
dorsement upon tho pleadings of tlif
defendant which amounted to neither
an answer or a demurrer, but was sum-
rlcnt to raise an Issue. The endorse
ment admitted tho truth of tho allega
tions In tho plea ot abatement but de
nied that they constituted sufficient
grounds tor a dismissal of the Indict
ment
The argument of S. M. Hallou and L.
A. Andrews was directed against the
bailiff act passed by the Legislature,
and signed by Governor Dole at the
recent regular session.
The Attorney General will argue his
sldfl ot tho ca6e this afternoon.

SUVA'S BROKEN TIRE
An amusing Incident .occurred on
Fort street yesterday morning. John
Bllra, the letter carrier In tho employ
ot the Post Office department, has the
tires of hla bicycle filled Ulth "Never
lcak," a watery fluid placed In tires
which Is supposed to make them punc
ture proof. SUva was coming down
Fort street at a good clip when sud
denly his tiro gave way, making n ln;e
hole in tho tire. The bicycle sudden
ly resembled a chemical fire cnglno
In full blast, for the "Neverlcak" was
squirted about the street In all direc
tions. The occupants of near by car
riages received their hnre of the fluid,
while the different merchants in the
adjacent stores tied to tho back part of
their shops. Sllva's coat also came In
for a drenching for, at every revolu
tion of his wheel, tho stream caught
him square In the back. As "Never
lcak" has an odor akin to that of fer
tilizer, the effect was anything but
pleasing.

Startling Disclosures

HAWAII ASKS FOR MODEST
LITTLE SUM OF $W,Hfl
Monsarrat Hakes Some Scriptural Re-
ferencesMakekau Upholds the
Hawaiian Report-Income
Tax Discussed
'H,'J'0, ' ,n v
The House has already appropriated
all the money which will be forth
coming In tho next two years.
Dickey gave some figures this morn
ing that startled tho House, for only
salaries and the general expenses liavn
been considered so far. Not ono cent
has been appropriated for road work,
and the only poslslble revenue by
which public Improvements can be
carried on will be obtained through the
Income Tax. Dickey sprung the sensa
tion on tho House In the consideration
of the Hawaii report. Hawaii desires
to expend the modest llttlo sum of
$919,125 on roads and bridges. Fol
lowing is the report by districts: Ha
malum. $144,000; Puna. SI4.S00; Olaa,
$07,673; North and South Kona, $31,
SCO; Kau, 99,1S0; North and South Ko
hala, 9,00; Htlo, $503,000; grand to
tal, $919,125. The report Is signed by
ft. U. Makekau, J. Monsarrat. J. Ewa
llko, W. B. Nalllma J.'K. Kckaula. II
M, Kantho. J. W. Kelllkoa, S. II. Una
heo.
Makekau moved to cdopt tho reporl
of the committee. Ho. stated that II
was not nearly as extravagant as It ap
peared. Ilamakun, for Instance, yields
a revenue of about $193,300, while the
appropriation for that district only
amounted to $11 1,000. After paying the
salaries of all the Hamakua officials
thero was still $01,000 left, which might
be expended In paying tor the band o'
tha new "C, H. Dickey."
Dickey handed out somo cold facts.
"Gentlemen," he began, "we hnvo nl
ready appropriated every cent of mon
ey which will bo forthcoming to us In
tho next two years. In considering tlj
items under 'pay rolls' and 'Genera'
Expenses.' Tho taxes from tho differ
cnt Islands are ns follows: Oahu, $1,
801,400; Hawaii. $SS0,S00; Maul, $510,
S00; Kauai, $432,000.
"Tho percentage of tnxes for this
Island as as follows: Oahu. &0j per
cent; Hawaii, 21V4 per cent; Maul.
Wi per tent. The only money which
Is now left for roaJ Improvements Is
the- Income Tax. No ono knows how
much money will como from that, bul
I hope that $700100 will be realized.
Counting on $700,000 anil appropriated
according to tho pcrccntago schedule
which I Just gavo the appropriations
would amount as follows: Oahu, $350,.
000; Hawaii, $171,500; Maul, $91,500;
Kauai, $SO,500..
"Such a report as this, .asking for
even more money than is realized from
tho whole Inland. Is too extravagant
to bo considered, und I move that It bo
referred back to the commlttco from
whence It came."
"Mr. Speaker," replied Monsarrat,
(.peaking In favor of the report, "tho
Good Book says that we should not
servo two masters but It seems to ra
that Mr. Dickey Is working for both

which will never realize a cent of rove

propriation.
I will simk only concerning unit.
Kau has never had her Just due. This
year wo ask but $50,000 for n road
which Is very Important to tho welfare
of the country, yet I know wo will
never get It. Taxes have always gone
for Honolulu and will continue to go
that way."
Mossman said he thought tho Hawa
iian delegation should have, followed
Kauai's example"!. Instead of ap
propriating far above their nieans, bo"

Tho report was finally referred back
to the committee for revision.

was some distance oft nnd, as soon as
he entered tho door, wo sang "Aloha

bis mind fond memories of Hawaii nel
for the tears flowed freely down hit
cheeks.
"After tho song had been completed,
Mr. Watcrhouse came up and shook
hands with all of us and thanked ui
for tho honor he considered wo had
conferred upon him. He stated that
