$75 per month rent and pay each one-third |
expenses. but did not. Aldrich drew !
$500 or $500 while in the business.
Many OF our accounts could not be collected
because Aldrich owed them. Had no per
sonal difference with Aldrich, but was con-
tinually after him for drawing so much
money. He got angry when L instructed
the bookkeeper not to pay him any more.
My interest account and expenses the last
eleven months in business was nearly
$12, 900.
TUESDAY, March I'd.
Mr.. Cecil Brown stated: From exami-
nation of the books we find that the ex-
pense account from the time Levey bought
out Bush to date of failure, two years and
eleven months, was $32 1868 O6. Interest
and discount for same time was $3.50 81,
rents 1854 %, making total expenses
$48,5O1 81. Merchandise sales were 1885,
595. We figure gross profit on sales $751;
$40. Besides this, SOS, 900 was paid into the
business in cash, as follows: From Mac
farlane, 50 900; Cartwright, $4,000; Bishop
& Co., 5000; Levey himself, 5000, and
Aldrich, So, 600. Now after using all the
assets, there is still over $50, 900 due credit
ors. This would show a deficiency of $79,-
S19, or leaving out $4,000 paid Bush, $685.
s19. On January LIST, Leyey says his bust
ness was SO 900 to the good. Aldrich put
in 5000 His profits on sales for the
eleven months of 1885 must have been
about $4,000. Deduct SIS 900 for ex-
penses, and there is then deficiency of
$22, 900.
S. J. Leyey, examined: L cannot account
for this deficiency except what shows in
books. 1 never had any idea anybody was
robbing me. L should like to have this de-
ficiency explained myself. Miller kept
daily cash sales while there, and book
keeper copied into the regular cash book.
I never entered in regular cash book, only
in blotter Sales for cash varied $40, 49,
| $50, sometimes only So daily. Have not
| fully discovered cause of my failure yet.
1 have never gone through the books thor
oughly; took my bOokkeeper's word for it.
Don't think now they are correct.
The Court ordered the examination to
stand over till called up again in order to
! give Levey time for an examination of his
| books.

for Honolulu, on February 10th, and
that this steamer had been quarantined,
smallpox having broken out on board
The Bulletin" of February 18th con-
tains a report of the proceedings at the
Board of Health in relation thereto. The
passengers and crew were to be removed
to the hulk Dakota, the smallpox
patient, negro stow-away who got on
board at Yokohama, being transferred to
the pest-house. The disease developed
on the eighth day out. He had been
isolated during the remainder OF the voy-
age. 1t was resolved that the Belgic's
passengers should be kept in quarantine
for period equivalent to fifteen days
from the breaking out OF the disease.
This would expire about the 18th Feb
ruary. If any new case broke out the
quarantine would be heightened. Under
this state of facts great vigilance should
be used in the inspection of all Chinese
arrivals via San Francisco. 1t is not in
tended to create alarm, but simply to
| give timely notice of coming danger.

THE ADVERTISER did not say, as has
been charged by an Opposition paper,
that the Government will get all the
money it wants, "to spend just as it
wants in spite of the taxpayers" What
it did say was that despite the threat OF
the Opposition to prevent the Govern
ment getting money, and so embarrass-
ing it, the Government would get what
money it wanted for all public purposes.
1t follows of course that the expenditure
would be under lawful appropriation.
Accuracy of statement is essential to the
right understanding of any question.
Our Opposition friends forget this very
often, and so befog themselves and those
who look upon them as political lights
in the local armament.

ABOUT DISCRIMINATION AND THE
TREATY.

The Opposition papers have rung the
changes upon the ADVERTISERS state
ment that American bottoms were being
Disseminated against latterly in the
matter of cargoes of domestic produce
shipped to the United States under the
Reciprocity Treaty, and so late as yes
tcrday a double-barreled discharge of
Observation-Disclosures shot was fred into us
by the daily and weekly organs of the
Opposition. The Gazette" says:
In answer to the absurd articles pub
lished by the Government organ meaning
the ADvERTIsERl relative to discrimination
against American shipping, it is only nee
essary to point out that during the year
1885, 89.05 per cent of our commerce was
carried in American bottoms, while the
beggarly balance of less than IL per cent
was divided between British, German, Ha-
waiian, Norwegian and Japanese.
And the daily morning organ of the
Opposition also stated ''that the Govern
nent organ [meaning the ADVERTISED
has been advised by disinterested par
ties and is perfectly well aware that no
determinations have been made by
shippers here against American vessels"
Now, we happen to have been we'll
informed on the subject before we wrote
about it during the campaign, nor did
we do so until the fact had been brought
before the notice of the United
States in another form. Instead of
censure, therefore, we nerited praise
and commentator for warning the pro-
ducing classes of these Islands OF the
risk they ran of having the Reciprocity
Treaty abrogated through suspicion OF
hostility to American shipping interests.
And it should also be borne in mind
that we did not refer to the export trade
of 1885, which had been controlled by
the arrangements with the California
Refinery and the Oceanic Steamship
Company, and which resulted, as the
Gazette truly states, quoting from the
report of the Collector General of Gus
toms, in American bottoms carrying
1905 per cent of our Islands commerce,
leaving a beggarly balance of 1925 per
cent for ships of all other nations. I'm
der the old arrangement, which the OPP
position battled to destroy, the American
flag covered the Hawaiian trade. But
how does it stand now, under the new
arrangement which the Opposition pa
pers are never wearied of praising and
congratulating the country upon? The
following exhibit taken from the Gus
toms records for The past two months,
shows the marked (hange in the drift Of
our carrying trade.S Considerably over
