In tbe first Ave months of this year tbo
expenditures of the city health department'
bsve exceeded Its appropriation by J2S1.78.I
A statement presented to the city council
t Its special meeting yesterday showed I
that the balanse In the health fund Is not
ufflclcnt to meet tho May salary list of the
health department. i
The council referred the communication '
to the committee on finance and claims and
It Is likely that tho general fund will be
drawn on to meet the deficit and tide tho
department through tho remainder of the
year, i
At the beginning of the present year the
health department had a deficit of 1."88.S2,
Granting that 90 per cent of the tax levy
for 1901 Is collected, tbe money available
for the department this year will be
18,838.93. Miscellaneous collections swelled
this sum to $9,096.71. The amount paid out
o far on 1901 claims Is C,991. This leaves
a, balanco of $316.89 In the fund with which
to pay the May salary list of $601.07.
EmrrKrnr) llonpllnl In Ivi u i'ii n i it.
Maintenance of the emergency hospital
has proven too much for tho small ap
propriation given the health department.
Tbe expenditures of the hospital so far this
year have aggregated $4,324.28.
There Is a difference of opinion as to
how the expenses of the emergency hospi
tal should be met. In discussing the con
dition of the health department's funds
City Comptroller John N. Weathers re
marked: "In my opinion It was never Intended by
the charter that the regular fund set aside
for the uso of the health commissioner
should be expended In caring for emergency
cases. The department needs more money
than Is allowed It for other purposes and
should not be expected to bear the burden
Imposed by such an expensive Institution
an emergency hospital."
After passing the salary ordinance for
May the council adjourned.

has directed Ambassador Cboate. at London
to Issue passports to tho two Filipinos who
appeared at the embassy yesterday, "as

The decision upon this point Is of im
portance as having perhnps some bearing
upon the status of the people of the Phil
ippines, Porto Illco and Guam. A year ago
the decision was reached to regard the
Porto Rlcana as entitled to tho protection
conveyed by an American passport, but a
formal decision of tho test case was pre
ented through tue withdrawal of the ap
plication. Tne Foraker act determined the
right of the Portu Rlcans as "citizens of

The United States statutes prohibit the

HONOLULU. May 25. (Via San Francisco,
June 1. Correspondence of the Associated
Press.) The grand Jury called to Investi
gate charges of bribery In the legislature
Is still In session and has made no report
so far. Circuit Judge Humphreys has re
leased Attorney General Dole and Treasurer
Llnslng from testifying on the ground that
nil they had heard on the subject about
which the grand Jury questioned them was
hearsay, and they had given tbo names
of those from whom they received the re
ports. In the cases of Acting Governor
Cooper and tho cx-supertntendent of public
orkB, who were also cited to
appear before Judge Humphreys and show
cause why they should not answer tbe
questions put to them, decisions have not
yet been rendered.
The grand Jury Is calling many witnesses,
It Is reported that Investigations center
around the efforts of liquor men to defeat
the dispensary law and proposed legislation
having to do with grnntlng of franchises
for the Honolulu Tramway company and
the Honolulu Rapid Transit and Land com
pany. All the directors of the latter com
pany have been summoned as witnesses.
The legislature Is still In session, con
sidering appropriations, It has received a
letter from Acting Governor Cooper, giving
new estimates, but tho home rulers will
probably cut them, os they are now en
gaged In making heavy -reductions of sal
arles of government officials and clerks.
Tbo bouse tabled the estimates of the
acting governor with n message to await
a decision as to the legality of his status
bb acting governor, a question having arisen
in Judgo Humphreys' court as to his right
to occupy such a position. Attorney Gen
eral Dole has rendered an opinion that he
Is legally acting governor. Governor Dole is
still at a mountain resort and hlsphys'l ans
have ordered him to stay there longer.
The presence of a large quantity of opium
In Honolulu is being much discussed and
there Is difference of opinion as to who
Is responsible for Its coming here. The
police stato that the opium is from Hong
Kong and that large quantttlci of It arc
unstamped, showing that It has been smug
gled Into American territory. There la now
no territorial law regarding opium, the
old law having been declared unconstltu
llonal and opium smoking Is going an gen

SAN FRANCISCO, Juno 1. A mob of sol
diers numbering 500 or 600 Indulged lu a
riot last night and wrecked Mrs. Powers
saloon, one of the many drinking places
Just outside the Presidio reservation.
There are a great many conflicting stories
as to tbe origin of the trouble. The sol
diers of the Forty-sixth volunteer Infantry
were mustered out of tho service yesterday
and the men given their discharges and
pay. Most of the men had several hundred
dollars coming to them, and did considera
ble drinking In tho Presidio resorts. A
man b the came of Morgan from the Forty-
sixth was found unconscious In front
of Mrs, Powers' saloon, Two of Morgan's
company mates took him to camp for treat
ment. The doctor pronounced it n case
where drugs had been administered. The
news spread rapidly about tbe camp and
soon there were a dozen or more men
running to Mrs. PowcrB' saloon. They de
manded reparation for the drugging of
thalr comrade, but any knowledge of the
affair was denied. Two or three cx-soldlers
lounging about the place sided In with the
woman and ordered the soldiers from tho
premises. They went back for reinforce
ments and spread the report that two of
their companions had been killed In this
saloon.
A mob made up of members of the Forty
fifth and Forty-sixth regiments then rushed
pell mell through tho Presidio gates to the
saloon. Stones were gathered on the way
nnd then the place whs stormed. Every
window In the place wob broken, the bar
and fixtures smashed nnd the Interior de
mollshed completely. The gas Jets were
snapped off and the coal oil lamps over
turned.
The place caught (Ire and a policeman
broke through the crowd and rang tho fire
alarm. By that time the Infuriated men
were yelling to burn the place and lynch
the one helpless man, Harris, who had been
driven from the place. The officers tried to
rush Harris through the crowd, but were
stopped. In spite of the efforts of the po
lice to protect Harris tho soldiers beat
and cut him terribly. Finally, when the
squadron of cavalry and provost guard of
sixty men from tho Forty-fifth arrived
passage was made through the crowd and
Harris taken to a safe place,
The efforts of the cavalry and guard to
disperse the crowd were futile until the fire
bone was turned on. The entire guard of
the post helped to rcstoro order.
Mrs. Powers ektlmates the damage nt
$2,000. Not n thing was left Intact In the
saloon,
A careful Investigation of the report that
some of tbe soldiers had died from drugged
liquor proved tint such was not the case,
Morgan of the Forty-sixth regiment was I
the only mat. whom it Is thought might j
hove been tho victim of a drug.
An Investigation of tho riot will be made
today by tho pollen and military officials.

LONDON, Juno 1. Commenting on Lord
George Hamilton's letter of yesterday, re
plying to the nttack of Sir Alfred Hickman
In the Huse of Commons May 26 on Ameri
can locomotives and bridges, the news
papers are unsparing In tbelr criticism of
what tho St. James Gazette calls the "You
be damned" attitude of British manufac
turers toward their customers. The St.
James Gazette applauds Lord Hamilton's
"crushing, brutal frankness In commenting
on the Mleawber methods of British em
ployers and the selfish childishness, of Brit
lsh workmen" and proceeds to depict the
methods of trades unionists ns "thoroughly
and unscrupulously dishonest "
The paper say3 It could almost wish Lord
Hamilton had not undertaken to give pref
erence to British firms where It Is possible,
"ns It would be as well for tho future that
our Industrial classes learn the bitter les
son of their experience "
The Globe does not hesitate to predict
that unless the methods of trades unionism
ns practiced In this country aro modified
Amr-ans within the next few years will
beat the British out of the field. The Olobt
compliments tho American trades unionists
for their skill and Industry, while Blmul
tancously keeping up tbo rate of wages.

Ante Room Echoes
Sunday evening, June i, a special train,
carrying the delegates from Nebraska to
tho meeting of the head camp of the Mod
ern Woodmen of America at St. Paul, will
leave Omaha over tho Illinois Central rail
road. Thete will bo forty-four delegates
from the state and as many alternates,
Many of these delegates will be accom
panied by their families, while several of
the organizations of Foresters in the state
will leave on the same train to attend the
Foresters' encampment, which Is held at
the same time and place.
Tho Nebraska delegates will be Joined
at Omaha by the delegates from Colorado
to ths number of twelve, delegates and
alternates with a number of their friends
and members of the order In those states,
with four delegates from Wyoming. The
combined party will make up a special
train for the occasion, and members of the
society hope that an additional train can
be run from Omaha later In the week, but
thU matter has not been settled.
Nebraska will be prominent at the meet
ing of the head camp, as It Is one of the
states of the union where the Modern Wood
men ore particularly numerous. The state
has four candidates for officers at this
meeting, with fair prospect of landing nt
least two places. A. B. Talbott of Lin
coin, a member of the board of directors,
Is n candidate for re-election; Dr. Blair
of Wayne Is h candidate for head physl
clan, and It is snld has enough votes prom
ised to land him In that place; O, L. vai
tors of Peterburg is a candidate for bead
clerk, while J. W. Gilchrist of Nebraska
City osplrcs to a place on tbe board of
auditors.
In addition to these offices Nebraska
wants the location of the head camp at
Omaha. There will be but little Btruggle
over the proposition nt this meeting, for
the reason that by the compromise by
which St. Paul received the meeting this
year the next one wns to go to Grand
Itaplds. but at the Grand Rapids meeting
the Nebiaskn delegation will go In to win
and will make tho race this year to get
acquainted with the process. Tbe Omaha
delegates to thu head camp meeting are:
J. W. Harnett. E. F. Bailey. Thomas 1'.
Thornton and Barney Harris.
