NEW YORK, April Am astonish-
ing mutation of speculative sentiment
was demonstrated by the action of the
stock market to-day. There was not a
sign OF the distress and acute anxiety
under which the market labored all day
yesterday. 1t is the almost invariable
rule that such a violent break in prices
as that of yesterday brings in over
night an accumulation of selling orders
from alarmed holders of stock who wait
for daily reports for their information
on the stock market, but the opening
this morning was quiet and unruffled
with no important pressure to sell and
with many notable advances induced
by the demand OF the shorts to cover.
Before the day was over the bull leaders
had recovered their full control OF the
situation and were marking I'D prices
and attracting large following with all
the facility which has characterized
their operations for many weeks past.
1here was very palpable manipulation
ana there were carefully organized
operators to support the market. Com
mission houses which We're prominent
IN bidding up stocks and which have
acted Tor large speculative interests all
through the recent bull campaign, were
free lenders of money below the rate
offered by the banks at the same time
that they were buying stocks. The ru-
NOR OF the Burlington deal was reha-
billtated and had apparently not lost
any OF It's pristine force, although Off
clal confirmation was still conspicuous
iy lacking. There was revived credul-
lty in many other rumors which have
already done good service. including
that OF the supposed reimbursement of
the General Electric's capital and the
southwestern railroad merger. The set
tlement of internal dissensions in the
American Smelling Company, the adj
vance in the price of refined sugars
and the absence of any ENGAGEMENTS
of gold for export by to-naorrow,s
steamer were all used to effect by the
bulls. The advances reacted six points

THE GREATEST OF RICHES.

Not lands. houses, farms, stocks or
bonds, but Health. Many a millionaire
would give his millions to eat with the
appetite. and sleep with the peace en-
joyed by the Indian. Yet it does not
need millions to be the equal Of the
Indian in health. The secret of his
health and strength is ours. That won
derful Indian remedy, Sagwa, contains
in itself the secret of the long and
healthy life of the Indian. 1t is In some
respects the most wonderful medicine
known, because it is doubtful if any
improvement in it is possible. 1t is
the product of centuries of experiment.
AS it stands now, in the perfect bal
ance of it's life-giving ingredients, in
their careful selection and their skill
full combination, there is nothing left
to improve. The pharmacopoeia OF Ma
ture has been exhausted. The Indian
shut out from all outside help was
Obliged to wrest from Nature the Sc
crets of her healing herbs. Slowly,
very slowly through the long centuries
he CLEANED his knowledge and perfect
ed it. Those centuries OF slow results
are represented today by the perfected
compound Sagwa. There is no other
remedy that has so many and so Won
derfuI cures to its credit. 1t is purely
vegetable. 1t is Natures own remedy,
as used by Natures own children. Ii
purifies the blood strengthens the
stomach, assists the kidneys in their
functions, regulates the liver, and
makes the whole man sound and
strong 1t is unique among medicines
both for its simplicity and for the
thoroughness of its cures. 1t cures all
over and il cures to stay.

RAILROADS AWAIT
LAYING OF CABLE
They Will Then Boom Islands as a
Resort for Tourists by Plenty
Of Advertising.

When the cable is an assured fact the
Hawaiian Islands will receive an ad-
vertising boom under the auspices Of
the various railroad systems of the
United States which should attract
thousands of tourists and wealthy peo-
pie here. F. c. Smith, General Passen-
ger and Ticket Agent of the Oahu Rail
way Company, who has lately returned
from pleasure and business trip TO
the United States, came back full
fiedged member of the American Assoc
citation of General Passenger and Ticket
Agents, and attended the annual meet
ing of that important body at AsheviIle,
n. c., on October 14th last.
Mr.. Smith pressed the claims of Ha-
wall for recognition by the organiza
ton in the hope that something would
be done by the railway corporations TO
include the islands in their descriptive
advertising matter. advocating them as
a desirable place for wintering or sum-
mering as the case may be.
In the discussion of Hawaii the con-
scrcus of opinion was that il would b."
waste of advertising. effort and
money to begin an extensive lot of adj
vertising at present, as there were few
OF the wealthy tourist class who could
afford to come here without being in
photographic communication with the
stock markets of the United States. 1t
was decided that when the Mackay ca
BILE was in place and ready for business
then would be time enough for blowing
Hawaii's horn and telling of its advan
tages as a winter resort. Mr.. Smith
says that the passenger agents are
fully alive to the possibilities of travel
heading in this direction and will do
everything possible to bring the matter
to the attention of the American pub
lie

RUMOR Of
HEAD TAX
The Local Chinese
Deny That 1t Will
Be imposed.
SUGGESTION OF
PRINCE CHING
Plan to Assess Chinese in Foreign
Countries to Assist in Pay
ing indemnity.

Rumors reached Honolulu from China
recently that all Chinese residents in
Hawaii were to be assessed so much
per head by the Chinese government,
the fund so realized to be applied to
the payment of the enormous indemnity
which China is TO pay the nations
which suffered through the Boxer trou
bles. 1t was stated that the Chinese
officials were resorting TO these meas
ures TO secure aid for the depleted
! treasury Of the Empire and that Prince
Ching, a member of the royal family
had suggested that head tax be inn
posed upon all wearers OF the queue.
This suggestion referred to all Chinese
whether residing in the empire or in
foreign countries. Prince Ching's plan
as suggested was to send commission
ers into all countries where Chinese re-
sided to collect the tax, claiming that
as they do not become citizens of other
countries, they should assist their nd
tive land.
prominent Chinese official in dis
cussing the proposed tax stated that ne
{
foundation, as nothing had been heard
of il at the local consulate. He hard
ly believed that the Chinese government
would resort to such extremes, as the
people residing in the empire were not
in a position financially. to have such
a tax imposed upon them. AS to Chi
nese in foreign countries being levied
upon. he could not say whether they
would submit even if the rumor had
official foundation.
Prince Ching's plan has created con-
siderable dissatisfaction in the south
ern provinces of the Chinese empire,
and is liable TO result in serious dis
turbances. Ii is claimed that residents
OF the northern provinces were alone
responsible for the Boxer movement,
and that they should be called upon
to bear any expense caused by their ac-
ton. The Chinese of the southern prov
inces were friends of the foreigners, and
as most OF the merchants in foreign
countries are from the southern prov
inces. the movement on foot TO resist
the taxation for indemnity is rapidly
gaining ground. and it is said that the
Chinese abroad will refuse to pay the
proposed tax.
Prince Ching says that if they refuse
the burden will fall on their relatives
in the southern provinces, and that
other oppressive measures viii be en-
forced against them. and that merchants
abroad refusing to pay the proposed tax
will not be allowed to return to their
mother country and VIII be classified as
traitors.
