From this it appeared that the committee has been actively engaged in disseminating informa- tion in the East concerning California and that many letters have been recelved, | showing a live interest in this State. The statistics embodied the fact that since REL committee on New Montgomery street 4035 letters of inquiry and 1466 miscella- neous letters have been recelved. The committee has sent out up to date, ac- cording to the same showing, 3485 answers (fl inquiries. 4075 miscellaneous letters and 52 circular letters.

Mr. Jennings in his monthly report spoke of the reception by the committee to Clarence Mackay at the Palace Hotel, the co-operation afforded to the general ccmmittee on management of the com- ing national encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic in this city, and 1so reported that an appropriation has been made to assist the California Fruit Growers' Association to bring farm la- borers from the East to work in orchards in California. He also reported that a circular letter will soon be Issued to the | public in reference to contributions for | carrying on the work of the committee | another year.

HAWAIl NEEDS LEGISLATIVE AID Senate Committee Files Report on Island Affairs. Changes Are Recommended to Strengthen the Exist- ing Government. — e WASHINGTON, Jan.12.—When the Sen- | ate met to-day Mitchell of Oregon sub- mitted the report of the committee of the Senate on its investigation of affairs in the Hawaiian Islands. The condition of affairs in the leper settlement on the isi- and of Molokai excited the liveliest in- | terest. The committee made quite a thorough inquiry concerning this settlement, which is under Territorial control, with the re sult that it recommends that the man- agement of the colony be transferred to the marine hospital service, with head- quarters in Washington, and that a gen- eral leprosario or retreat for all the lep- ers of the United States be established on that island. At the time of the visit of the commit- tee there were 858 lepers in the settle- The opinion sed that there are many hundre cases of lep- sy in the Territory. In the past year olokai settlement there were 144 deaths and sixteen births. In connection with its disc ion of the labor question the committee takes up the effort on the part of the business men of the fslands to secure the removal of some of the restrictions on Chinese immigra- tion. This desire is conceded to be very gen- eral, but nators Mitchell and Foster, representing a majority of the sub-com- mittee, take very positive ground in op- | position. They say that the conditions { are not different in the islands from what they are on the mainland, and make the usual argument against Chinese admis- sion. They contend also that the Chinese do much to introduce and maintain bu- bonic plague and other contagious dis- eases. Senator Burton takes the opposite view. He says that neither the native nor white | men will work in the sugar flelds, and he | calis attention to the freedom with which Orlental labor was brought in in the days of monarchy. “It is,” he “a well-known fact that the count Was Vvery prosperous | when it was a kingdom, and inued very prosperous under the governm and under the re period c cline began with and matters have gone on unde tion from bad to worse until to-day specter of hard times is found where throughout the islands.’ He says the Chinese are preferable to the Japar and he urges that it is an unfair discrimination to allow the latter to come in unrestricted and not to permit the former to come in at all. He sugges! that Chinese be allowed to enter to pe form agricultural labor and for no other purpose. Much space is devoted to di of the administration of the public of the Territory and the commit that the policy pursued in Hawail with reference to these lands is direct trary to the policy pursued in the [ States. It is remarked that wher policy on the mainland is to pres lands for homes for the peopls, the now being enforced in Hawali * to be to utilize the public domain s for the purpose of revenue and conse- quently very little of the public lands are being sold but large tracts placed under long leases, a policy which, in the judg- ment of your committee. should not be continued under any circumstances or for any length of time In addition to the recommendation that the leasing system be abolis mittee suggests that the lands immediateiy be taken from the Ter- ritorial government and vested in the In- terior Department at Washington. the every- | The centralized character of the pres- | ent government is commented upon at ! length and very sharply criticized. It is declared there is very s difference in | this respect from the m hial form of government preceding annexation. RECENT DEFALCATIONS. Among other institutions of the Gov- ernment of the is nds of which the com- mittee disapproves is the Governor's Ad- visory Council, which they say is without any authority of law. All questions, even those pertaining to slight improvements in distant islands, are passed on by the council. The committee considers this an evil to be remedied by the creation of local municipal governments throughout the Territory. Referring to the recent defalcations on the part of officials in the island, the committee sa There has re defalea Governor name in a The comm! ntly been a perfect saturnalia rassments. icizes the present system which requires no bonds from per- sons engaged in judiciary positions, say- ing: Although all these officers thus defaulting, except Woodward, Thomj Chief Clerk | | Wright and Walter A, Wright | Py Gosernor Dole by and w were appointed advice and Sointments, borne Kood reputa for integrity and business capacity, it would, in the opinfon of the committee, be unjust 'to attach any blame on . to Governor Dole. It of surprise that thers Is nio provision wha In the organic act o local s requiring either the I Treasure any other Federal or in ‘the case of the Assessor and Tax Collector, to give a bond conditioned for the falthful per. formance of the trust LARGER BONDS REQUIRED. Tn the case of the Assessor and Tax Col- or orfal officer, except lector, while the local Statute requires him to give bond in not less than $10,000, he was only required to give a bond, and is now under such bond, in the sum of but $2000, while by his own testimony before the com. mittee he may have as much as $650,000 taxes in his hands and under his control at one time. In not requiring a greater bond from this officer vour committee believes the Governor and Secretary State are properly chargea with neglect of pubilc duty. Your com- mittee recommend such legislation as will compe] every officer, both Federal and Ter- ritorlal, who has coatrol of public funds, fo give a sufficient bond to cover any and’ all | delinquencies. | The committée finds that Queen Liliuo- | kalani had no personal interest in the crown lands which have been claimed for her, but only an official interest during her reign. Such interest would have en- titled her to the rental of the lands, and the committee finds from the time of the | dethronement to September 1 last the | rental would have amounted to $432,378. In view of all the circimstances the com- mittee recommends thaf “as an act both of justice and national grace and wisdom, the Senate consider with favor, on the lines indicated in this report, the claim | of the late Queen Lilluokalani, now a loyal private citizen of the United States, and make such reasonable provision for her s the facts here presemed may seem to justify.” The committee recommends the disal- | lowance of claims made by the other persons professing to be members of the late royal family of Hawail. Board Elects New Officers. At a meeting of the new Board of Bank Commissioners held yesterday evening Colonel Wright was chosen president and C. H. Dunsmoor was re-elected secretary.

Collins, ap- | pealed, and the United States Circuit Court depided against him. Then Mr. Collins obtained a stay of proceedings for sixty days for the purpose of preparing and presenting a petition to the United States Supreme Court for a writ of certio- rari, and that stay expired on January 10. Having failed at the proper time to apply for a further stay, quested United States Attorney worth to stipulate for more time, W Mr. Woodworth declined to do. Mr. lins then went to Judge Morrow and was | followed by Mr. Woodworth with a test. Defendant’s attorney then tele- phoned to Judges Ross, Hawley and Gil- bert of the appeal court, and Mr. Wood- 0~ worth, learning of that fact, agaln pro- tested. Mr. Woodworth appeared yesterday morning in the United States Dist Court and asked Judge de Haven to exe- cute the mandate of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals and have Dim- mick taken to the penitentiary. Again Mr. Collins made a desperate opposition He said that it would be very inconve- nient for him to travel back and forth to San Quentin with his client. He there- fore asked for further delay for the pur- pose of preparing some motions in the matter. Judge de Haven granted a stay until to-morrow morning. Dimmick was convicted on October 15, 1%01, since which time he has been con fined in the County Jail in lieu of the ! bail bond of $0,000 required by the court. If ‘he had gone to the penitentlary on that date he would have completed his imprisonment before now. He is also un- der sentence of two years' imprisonment for embezzlement. If convicted of the charge of stealing $30,000 from the Mint the highest penalty that can be imposed |is five years' imprisonment and a fine. His third trial on the $30,000 charge has been set for February { ADVERTISEMENTS. 1 | THE PURE O | GRAIN COFFEE ] In comparing Grain-O and coffes remember that while the taste is the same Grain-O gives health and { strength while coffee shatters the nervous system and breeds disease of the digestive organs.
