There is a very strong bill pool in
American Tobacco that promises TO be ag-
gTessive during the next fortnight. Its
members are confidently predicting much
higher prices for the stock. The buying
has been good and the short interest has
become nervous over the persistent
strength of the stock in an otherwise
heavy market. There is considerable talk
of an increase in the dividend rate TO Z
and possibly s per cent The earnings Of
the company are very heavy and the cash
surplus on hand is being employed in the
loan market. Friends OF Continental are
beginning TO talk bullsh on that stock
and say that it will follow American on
it's upward movement.

The HAVE ian Territory

WASHINGTON, January A. The
Senate will dispose of the Hawaiian
question without delay. The Commit
its report on the Cullom bill, which is
the measure drafted by the Hawaiian
Commission, consisting of Senators
Cullom and Morgan and Representative
Hit, who visited the islands in the
summer of 1898. The report is favor
able to the bill as it stands and recon-
mends only two or three minor amend
ments.
Chief among the amendments is the
following section: "'All sales, grants,
leases and other disposition of the pub
he domain and agreements concerning
the same and all franchises granted by
the Hawaiian Government in con-
formity with the laws of Hawaii prior
to September IL, 1899, are ratified and
confirmed"
1t is probable that this amendment
will be subjected to close scrutiny be-
cause of certain legislation that was
passed by the Hawaiian Legislature in
July, 1898, while Congress was con-
sidering the question of the annexation
of the islands. Other amendments of
Importance are that the Chief Justice
and Justices of the Supreme Court shall
serve for nine years and not during
| good behavior, as was provided in the
original bill. The committee also rec
ommends the appointment of a United
States District Judge at salary of
$4,000 by the President in addition to
the other Federal officials named in the
bill. Other amendments recommended
by the Committee on Foreign Rela-
lions have to do only with matters Of
legal phraseology and the simplifica-
tion of the provisions of the measure.
1t is probable that as soon as the
Senate shall have disposed of the cur
rency bill it will take up the Cullom
bill, providing a government for the
territory of Hawaii, and it is foregone
conclusion that the bill will pass the
House and the Senate without amend
ments of Importance.
The Senate Committee on Commerce
also reported favorably today two bills
introduced by Senator Frye providing
for the extension Of the laws relating
to commerce, navigation and merchant
seamen over the Hawaiian islands and
Porto Rico.
1he reporton the Hawaiian bill states
that about rs per cent of the trade be-
tween the islands and the United States
is carried on in American vessels, or
29O,766 tons in American bottoms and
1O1, 264 tons in foreign bottoms. 1t rec
ommends that all vessels owned by citi-
zens of the Hawaiian islands be ac-
corded registration in the United States,
as was done at the time of the acquisi-
tion of Alaska and louisiana 1t dis
approves, however, of the registration
of vessels admitted to Hawaiian regis
try since the annexation to this coun-
try.
Both the Hawaiian and Porto Rican
bills provide that coasting trade be-
tween those islands and any other por-
tions of the United States shall be regu-
lated in accordance with the provisions
of law applicable to such trade between
any two great coasting districts.
Representative Grosvenor of Ohio,
chairman of the House Committee on
Merchant Marine and Fisheries, has in
PRODUCED in the House bills identical
with the Frye bills, according Ameri-
can registry to Hawaiian and Porto
RIcan vessels.
