NEW YORK. April 23.-The Stock Mar
tied. The trading was marked by an I'M
usually feverish tone and liquidation,
which appeared to represent the exhaus-
ton of margined accounts and was COM
mon throughout the market. The grave
unsettlement of speculative confidence at
the close OF business on Saturday was in
creased this morning by the fact that Lon
don appeared to take alarm at the weak
ness of the New York market and sent in
not only much lower range Of prices for
American stocks, but also heavy settling
orders there. This naturally caused in
creased firmness in sterling exchange in
the market, and hence apprehensions that
expectations Of gold were imminent.
The dealings were very well distributed
and only few stocks were exceptions 10
the generally reactionary tendency OF the
market Federal Steel. common. was one
exception. comparative firmness on inside
support appearing in that instance There
were very severe declines in Tennessee Coal
and Iron and Colorado Fuel. American
Steel and Wire opened at wide variations
OF price. but after the opening il showed
a somewhat firmer tone on the covering
of short contracts. Sugar Refining was also
heavily dealt in, but was steady.
The losses in the railway list were not
particularly severe outside of Louisville
and Nashville in which London settling
was heavy. Missouri Pacific was eXcep-
Iionally active and showed tendency to-
ward recovery, and Texas Pacific was firm.
The local fractions were fairly steady at
the declines made on Saturday. The trad
ing at large was governed almost exclu-
sively by the same influences which were
effective last week. Confidence appeared to
be thoroughly unsettled by reason of the
steel trade conditions announced by the
management of the American Steel and
Wire Company in few quarters of the mar
ket was there any adequate support.

In this stock to l02 and a fraction II was
said that the company is losing $5,OO0,0oO
a year on its business, instead Of earning
per cent on the. common stock OF even
anything on the preferred stock. This is
very likely true. but it is not good reason
for going short of Sugar. The develop
ments OF any day may result in putting the
trust back in a position to earn 80 per
cent on the common stock again. The very
direness OF the present situation is an ar
gument for looking for change. But
even If there is to be no settlement OF the
war Immediately there is still the manipu-
lation OF Sugar stock which is quite suffi-
GENTLY potent over any short period.

NEW YORK, April 23--Enorts will be
made by the officials of the Seaside Sport

to obtain favorable reconsideration of the
clubs application for a boxing license, so
as to hold the Jeffries-Corbett fight in its
arena on May H.
The club has already applied to the Po-

matter and it is quite probable that ae-

As was expected, the Stock Market this
morning was irregular and tending toward
panicky conditions. Prices during the first
hour huctuated almost wildly, in some cases
tumbling badly hut in one or - t.
stances showing much strength. The break
In the Steel securities duiIng &c -
trading was not nearly so bad as had been
looked for. The low prices of last Satur-
day were not passed to any extent, al
though there was no recovery frUrn-tha
level The railway securities suffered more
than this group. the Changers especially
declining from ] 70 points, and the Pa
cific securities icing weak. The Balti-
more and Ohio securities also were al
lowed to decline quickly. Sugar AID
American Tobacco broke. 1t is easy to see
that no one has any very strong convic-
lions after such bad break as has oc-
CURED, and yet in the face of the very
unsettled conditions. The result is likely
TO be an irregular market for few days
at least, with the tendency either up
ward or downward, according to circun-
stances which cannot be fortold. Later
the intrinsic conditions. everywhere so
good, will induce buying of securities on
the weak spots an da gradual recovery.
II is a mistake to suppose, "a many pre-
tend to, that there is any important Iiqui-
dalton of investment holdings of securities
some OF them, have sold out with profit
and others will liquidate later. perhaps
with loss The small public buyers will
throw over their speculative ventures. but
the large holders OF stocks will see no
reason in the present furry for selling
out. 1t is as sure as anything is that they
will buy. The Vanderbilts and the Penn
sylvania people, the Standard Oil people
and the Whitney crowd were buying stocks
heavily few weeks ago at a higher level,
end they will see even more reason for
buying them now, as soon as they are
convinced that the Gates game has had its
worst effect Then there will be cover
lug by the beiated shorts and another
boom, il any OF the usual influences of
the market are TO be felt
Predictions were most pessimistic this
morning regarding the steel and iron Sc
curities In most cases apparently the
wish vas father to the thought The bulls
as well as the bears were surprised at the
opening in the group. Instead of tumb-
ling hve or ten points on the first quota
tons they even made fractional gains.
support from some quarter was evident
though who was the buyer was not TO be
learned As has been said before in this
column there will be many careful people
willing 10 buy the group when the furry
is over, as the present level of prices is

b. Wood as reader and the men as
ISOLATED with him on the Board have
dealt with the situation. With
no reward other than the speedy at
tainment of the object sought by every
citizen Of the Islands these men have
given their time-and with everyone
of them their time was good money
to the accomplishment of a most diff
cult and soul-trying task. Their own
private interests we're allowed practi-
cally to run themselves that no detail
of the duty to the public should be
sighted. This duty was to save life
and remove from the business COM
munity the burden of a plague stricken
port.
To this end they have faced bitter
criticism and the antagonism of short
sighted cyclists who did not hesitate
to force strife when in face Of the COM
mon enemy. Members Of the Board Of
Health are not angels nor have they
shown themselves possessed Of the
omnipotent power apparently claimed
by their critics. But aside from the
money proposition, which has practt-
cally assumed a political phase and
doubtless would whether the expendi-
lures were fifty cents or fifty millions,
the people should not fail to recognize
and express their appreciation for the
constant, honest, untiring effort which
has characterized every act Of the men
looked upon as the leaders of cam.
paign now apparently closed. All they
have got out of 1t Is numerous kicks
and cuffs, occasional support, occas-
siona condemnation, chicken today
feathers tomorrow. Now that these gen.
tlemen are able to return to work of
picking up the loose ends of theii
neglected private interests, the lenst
he public can do Is to express Its
kindIy appreciation for and accept the
accomplished task in the spirit which
has prompted the activities Of those
who directed the work and shouldered
the responsibilities.

one aside from the successful special

Cabin and the management has decided
to put on the piece ON Thursday to
Saturday nights. Ruth has already
made big hit in Eva In the States
and with her In the role and Hogan as
Tom notable performance should re-
suit. There will be some special fea-
lures arranged for the Saturday mat
inee to be announced later on. The
new system OF selling seats full week

sales already for every night until

at the box office.

The political platform Of some of our
good friends is based on the principle
that during national Republican adj
ministration Hawaii should be strongly
Republican and send a Republican del
egate to Congress; when the admins
tration is Democratic Hawaii should
follow the same pathway and send n
Democrat to Washington. To follow
this proposition to its logical conclu-
sion, Hawaii when applying for State
hood should request as special favor
that we be allowed to elect our Sena-
tors and Congressman after all the
other States have cast their vote for
national representatives. We are a
long ways from Statehood IL local poll.
tics are conducted on such shoddy
lines
