reported from January % to February 10, all occurring in the Chinese quarter and traced to a store where Chinese foodstuffs imported from the orient, via Honolulu, were sold. The town was at once sur rounded by cordon, the Chinese quarter destroyed by fire and the bodies of those dead of plague were burned. The situation Is we'll in hand, and the disease, the doctor says, may not spread. There are several large sugar plantations near kahulul, ana it Is impossible to say how much intercourse there has been between them and the town Owing to the condition of affairs at Hon olulu, vessels from the mainland nave been loading sugar for United States ports at Kahului, and the following vessels nave departed on the dates stated:
 February l. the Lurline for San Francis co; February 1, the Viking from Haua for San Francisco; February g, the Edward May, from Kihei for San Francisco via Makawei; February 9, the Eva from Kfhe1 for San Francisco via Haua; February II, the Mary Winkemann from Kahudin to San Francisco. Haua is about forty miles from Kahului and Kihel twelve miles dis tant.
 No note relative to the plague or suspic- ious cases was made on the bill of health by the consular agent at Kahului prior ito February 10.
 There are no means of docking ships at Kahului, and sugar is loaded by lighter. If possible arrangedn ents will be made for it's shipment outside of the infected district.
 In Honolulu. the doctor says, one case has been recorded since the date of his last report, that of a Chinese child on sthe Huh instant, from the southeast part of the city. Hartman, the white man in whom the anti-plague serum was used, is recov- ering. lit has also been used with good re- suits in the case of Armstrong Smith, a volunteer nurse, who was looked upon as suspicious. Dr. Carmichael says the facih- ties for disinfection of baggage at Hono- lulu are inadequate. All baggage, however. including hand baggage, has been sprayed with the 40 per cent solution of formaline. the contents of trunks, etc., being sprayed in layers, and then closed up at least six hours.
 No passengers but first cabin passengers have shipped from Honolulu since the plague was announced on December 12, and they are obliged ito report at the United States consulate for fifteen days prior to their departure Their residence in the city is recorded, and they are rejected if from any suspicious locality. There Is no avail able place that can be obtained in Hono- lulu for detention hotel, where all intend- ing passengers could be confined for the time required. and in its absence the plan outlined above was adopted, Only the local boat between Honolulu and San Francisco of the Oceanic Steamship company, has taken passengers from Honolulu since the plague was reported, with one exception, the Goelic. from the city of San Francisco on December 22, after the quarantine was raised by the Hawaiian authorities on De- cember 19.

BIG BUSINESS IN
 COTTON FUTURES Market Started Out Advancing
 But Reacted. TONE WAS FINALLY WEAK Continued Liquidation Was the Princi- pal Factor and the Transactions
 Reached Enormous Aggre-
 gate of 95o,ooo Bales
TONE WAS FINALLY WEAK

New York, March S.--A large business was transacted in cotton futures again to- day. Continued liquidation was the princi- pal factor in Sustaining the volume of transactions to an enormous total. seni- officially estimated at 95O ,000 bales. The market started out with prices unchanged to 2@11 points higher. This rise was due to tlhe fact that the English market, while showing at the opening decline of S-S2d in spot cotton and decline of 5-6i@6-6id dn futures, was by no means as badly off as the deunoralizaion shown by our mar ket yesterday as might seem to justify, Then, too. closing cables reduced the net decline at Liverpool 2-64@4-64 for the day. Latter, however, our market showed the effect of heavy selling of long cotton, mar gins were asked for that which were not forthcoming. A large amount of the sell- ing was of this class. For the first time the trade, blinded to statistics and regula- tion market bearings by the dazzling speou- Gative advance that has been so long in progress. found time to return calculations regarding the movement and its signifi- canoe. In the afternoon the market broke sharply under renewed heavy liquidation VI tOh5 Nctloh aiiu VSSdHit oNCiLCu diiA very irregular, with the toi.s finally weak at a net decline of 4@25 points. ..

NO DISTURBANCE
 IN WALL STREET There Was No Acute Weakness
 of Special Stock. SPECULATORS VERY QUIET Iron and Steel Stocks Were Generally Firm on the Encouraging Opin- ions Expressed by Authori-
 ties in the Trade
SPECULATORS VERY QUIE7

New York, March S.-The market was practically relieved today of aN disturbing factors in the way of acute weakness of special stocks. Reports all continued fla yorable regarding the outlook for values, but the demand for stock was almost un- aT,preciable. Even the small buying for investment based on large earnings of rail- roads which have been dn evidence for some time past, dropped out of sight today.
 Speculators are refraindng entirely from commitments for the advance. On the other hand, the bear operators of any con- siderable calibre seemed ito become dis couraged by the futility of their efforts and the culmination of events counted upon for @ reaction They made some demon stration against Peoples Cas- Consolidated Gas and Metropolitan Street Rail lway, but mo effect was produced the general market The room traders dabored in vain to set the sluggish tide of prices in motion in many stocks but the price changes were scarcely sufficient to cover a brokers commission and the inertness of the mar ket increased in proportion to the distance from last nights level, the tendency being to come back to that level firom either be- low or above it.
 The iron and steel stocks were generally firm on the encouraging opinions ex- pressed by authorities dn tthe trade.
 The demand for loans for purchases of government bonds continues large. These two factors threaten the early obliteration of surplus reserves of the New York banks The bond market was not as active as yes- terdlay, but prices. were firmly held.
