Beautiful La Paloma an Ideal
Yacht.
BIG ADDITION TO LOCAL FLEET
Belongs to Clarence Macfarlaue - Bea
the Andrew WEIGH Down-Twenty-
two Days Out.

The beautiful schooner yacht La Pa
Iona is anchored off Richards street.
Snowy white from stem to stern, she
shows none of the rough usage received
on the voyage down from San Francis
co, which terminated yesterday morn
ing. She will sail for Pearl Lochs this
afternoon, where she will be moored
Off the country place of the Clarence
Macfarlanes, returning hence next
week to be thoroughly overhauled She
will then be thrown open for inspec-
ton by the public and will afterwards
go out for cruise to windward, finally
taking her regular home anchorage off
Kainani, the home of her owner on the
Peninsula. La Paloma will be there
on Regatta Day and the other smart
yachts of the Islands will have a
chance to try their speed against her
From keel to masthead La Paloma is

1895, she was intended for the use of

misfortune, was compelled to dispose
of her to Colonel Andrews, the we'll

present voyage under Captain McPhail,
mate of the Andrew Welch, whose
services were secured through the fa-

the way in her to Honolulu with a
general cargo from San Francisco.
1t was the irony of fate that just out
side the Farallones Captain McPhail
sailed past the Andrew Welch, bound
for this port, and made the harbor
first.

HAWN. COMMERCIAL DIVIDEND

Edward Pollitz leaves today by the
Nippon Maru for San Francisco. Mr.
Pollitz has grown to be one of the
| most familiar figures in Hawaii's stock
market. Since his first trip to the ISL
| ands not many month ago he has en-
gineered several big deals. This trip
has been simply a tour of observation
so Mr.. POllitZ says. So far no big
deals, changes of control or stocks ia
ken for listing in San Francisco have
startled the street. But news some
times travels slowly and it would not
be surprising of it should transpire
that another sugar scalp hangs at the
belt of the broker.
Il am perfectly satisfied with my
trip and also satisfied to get away, as
the recent hot weather has made me
long for the fog and breeze of Market
street." said Mr.. Pollitz. 'I came
down simply to look over the planta-
tions in which our firm is most in
terested. I am more than satisfied
elated would come nearer it.
''The monthly dividend of Onomea
has been raised from thirty to thirty
five cents. This was done at the meet
ing held a few days ago. The same
will be done with Paauhau after my
return to San Francisco. Hawaiian
Commercial will pay it's first dividend
in about two months. This will seem
a wonderful thing to those who have
done nothing but pay assessments on
the stock for many years. 1t is un-
der different management now.
mo, do not carry a block of Kihei
with me as many have alleged. 1 have
absolutely no designs on that planta
ton. The Honokaa deal as elucidated
in the Advertiser has not come Off. In
regard to Wailuku and my option on
the controlling interest, have nothing
to say.
Every plantation whose stock is
held to any extent in the States should
follow the example set by the McBryde
Company I mean the establishing of
a transfer agency in San Francisco to
facilitate the handling of the stock
and to furnish information to invest
ors. A number of local promoters are
thoroughly in accord with my views
on this subject.
'McBryde may be taken to the
Coast and listed there. Such a thing
is not improbable. You would be sur
prised to know the number of McBryde
holders there are on the Coast.
MY partner, Mr.. st. Goar, will come
to Honolulu after my return to San
Francisco. He will make an extended
stay and a thorough study of the su-
gar industry. He wants to add actual
observation to the knowledge he has
already acquired"
"A number of people have remarked
that it was a strange coincidence that
Mr.. PollitZ, Mr.. Raas and Mr.. Paxton
should happen to leave at the same
time" said the reporter.
There is no sinister significance in
the circumstance" laughed Mr.. Pol
litz. 1--WE do not intend to carry off
any of the plantations.
