concerning Dcle's queer administration

Since writing the paragraphs which ap-
pear in this department concerning the
charges against Judge Humphreys, have
received a dispatch from Washington in
forming me that the charges were dis
missed Thursday and that the Bar Ass0-
citation of Honolulu had been roundly
scored. This is the first hard blow dealt
the Dole administration.

FULL CLAIM ALLOWED.
Jury Awards s2,155 to the Plaintiff
in a Civil Suit. -

In the suit of Ernest Wilkinson against
Louise NJ. Owens, Administrative of the
estate of Thomas Owens, heard yesterday
in Circuit Court No. 2. before Justice Cla-
baugh. the jury rendered a verdict for
the plaintiff for Piss, the whole amount
sued for.
In his declaration, Wilkinson contended
that in March, 1896, he entered into
contract with Thomas Owens to prose-
cute a certain claim for sS5O6.29 before
Congress. The amount named was claim
ed by Owens, 1t is stated, for longevity
pay accruing to him subsequent to lis
appointment as a surgeon in the United
States Navy. According to the terms of
the contract entered into between Wilkin-
son and Owens, it is stated, the former
was to receive 80 per cent of the amount
collected as a fee. Before the death of
Owens, the claim was allowed and 81
1896 was paid. OF this amount, Wilkin-
son states he received one-half, or s.. O97.5 So
Wilkinson contended that, OF the re-
mainder which reverted to the estate of
Thomas Owens, he is entitled to one-half,
estimated at s2,155. the sum awarded by
the jury.

the purchase of the stock. There were
many careful people that predicted THIS
when the deal was made. 1t Is not sur
prsnC that the failure should occur
Rather ii would have occasioned some
surprise If there had been success But
this has little or nothing to do with St
Paul The St Paul company pays per
cen dividend on its common stock and is
earning from u to Is per cent. The Bur
lngton deal puts Burlington stock yir-
tually on a basis somewhat better than
per cent while the Burlington earnings
are somewhat less than per cent. More
over. the outlook for the st. Paul during
the coming year is excellent. with the
wheat crop very heavy and the corn crop
shortage not hurting the line to any great
extent. The Burlington is a corn road and
the St. Paul "A wheat road. II is difficult
to make the Burlington report appear a
bear argument on St Paul.

THE CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET
Wheat Firmer and Higher, with
More Activity in Oats.

CHICAGO, Oct. 7.-Wheat was frmer
and averaged higher. Shorts were the
principal buyers, although there were
some local professional purchases on the
hq7sd advance at Liverpool and &c at
Paris. At times it looked as though corn
bulls were trying to help prices in the in
terest of that cereal. Domestic demand
continues good, 1909 bushels sold The
receipts were slightly larger than a year
ago.
Corn was dull and firm. The advance
in wheat was the factor The support
came from local professional bulls Of
ferings were light, with commission
houses principal sellers. The light world s
shipments, with a small contribution
from the Danubes, 2saAd. Higher Llv-
erpool cables and a decrease of / 1884, 900
bushels afioat were the bullish influences.
The cash demand was very poor No
sales here or at the seaboard.
Oats were more active and strong. A
prominent local bull was the best early
buyer but later in the day considerable
line of shorts was covered for New York
account. The Northwest and West were
good sellers. Local stocks of corn in
creased $4,000 bushels, while the visible
supply decreased $4,000 bushels. There
was a better shipping demand. Country
acceptances are fair. Receipts were 2l0
with Z35 estimated for tomorrow.
Provisions weakened under realizing
sales and pressure on lard from local
bear traders. There was some reaction
from the low point on demand from pack
ers, but the closing was easy at a decline
all around The early buying was by
shorts and pit traders. Cash trade was
only fair.
The Washington times., 1901-10-08

the best level on record naturally has
given rise TO a number of rumors as to
the cause. one story persistentiy circu-
lated is that another attempt is being
made to secure controlling interest for
the purpose of selling out at a handsome
price, either to interests allied with the
Washington Traction Company or to some
other gas interest. The price of the stock
is very high, from a strictly. investment
standpoint. the return on the investment
being little more than per cent.

The weak feature of the local market
has been the Graphophone stocks, both
preferred and common. There is much
uncertainty over the condition of the
business Of this company, and in the alb
senCe of full reports, naturally, weakness
in its securities always is given its worst
possible significance by the public. The
dividends have been maintained on both
common and preferred stocks, but at the
same time there have been rumors of SELL
ing of the stocks BY inside holders. The
two circumstances have led many to be-
lieve that the dividends were not being
earned in full. A few days ago n direc-
tor of the company was reported as max
ing the statement that the business dur
ing the past summer had been poor es-
pecially in the East, and that the diyi-
dend on the common stock has not been
earned in the past year by $4,000 or more.
This statement seemed to confirm the
earlier guesses and rumors, and during
the past week or more a number of local
holdings of the stock, held for many
years, have been sold out at the bottom
prices.

LOCAL BUSINESS NOTES.
Gossip Regarding MergenthnIer,
GraphophOne, and Gas stocks.

The local stock market has developed a
number of interesting features during the
past week and is being watched by more
people than for some time past. AS
result, both of the developments and of
the newly awakened interest, business
has been very good. Mergenthaler Limo
type, Capital Traction, Lanston, Wash
ington Gas, and Graphophone common
have all been traded in actively at times,
transactions in some cases being notably
heavy. 1t is gratifying to note that for
the most part the tendency of prices has
been upward. a very different condition
of things from that in the New York
market. A number of the favorite invest
ment and speculative securities dealt in
on the local market are what are called
industrials, all those mentioned above, for
instance, except Capital Traction. For
this reason it would not have been very
surprising If the particular weakness of
the Industrial stocks in New York had
been reflected here. The opposite has
been the case, however.
The Washington times., 1901-10-08
Gnre,nment nonns.

The stock market yesterday was more
active and interesting than at any time
in the past week or more. The opening
was at rather important concessions all
over the list, with transactions heavy and
much evidence of liquidation by the pub
lie. Nearly half a million shares were
traded in during the first two hours
Later, after dun period around noon.
there was sharp rally which lasted until
the close and carried the level well above
that of last Saturdays close and from
fraction to four or five points above the
low prices of the morning. The volume
of transactions was heavy during the
rally also but the character of the mar
ket was different, the evidence all being
of support by the insiders and even of a
desire on their part to make prices ad-
vance. The shorts seeing this change OF
front began to cover quickly and helped
the upward movement along. 1t is never
safe to make predictions without attach
ing to them some promise for unexpected
DEVELOPMENTS but some of the best of the
commission houses regard the outlook
now as most rea ssuring. They say that
while yesterday may not have seen the
lowest prices in many securities. the ap-
pearance of the market suggests strongly
that an Improvement is near at hand. On
their advice there was some very good
commission buying yesterday, which is
likely to be carried further today, and
later. if the market shows further ten
dency to improve.
The Washington times., 1901-10-08

The break in prices has gone a long
way from the highest, and cuTiously
enough the insiders have been the suffer
ers largely and not the public. which
was prettily thoroughly weeded out last
May. The insiders still have the great
bulk of stocks, and it is quite as true now
that they wish the public to buy them
it was two monthhs or four months
ago. 1t is also true that the break, in
the railway list at least, has come with
tion to warrant it. These are the i'm
portant facts in the situation, generally
speaking. II should be added that the
technical conditions now favor a recov-
cry, and a good advance in prices much
more than they did before the break
came. The short interests has been great

that with little urging the public would

The recent great demand for Washing
ton Gas and the advance In the price to
The Washington times., 1901-10-08

1t would not surprise careful people II
a recovery should begin In the stock now.
There is supposed to be good surplus
quite likely that the dividends on both
stock issues will be continued at their
present per cent rate, especially If the
business OF the autumn and winter is
good as officers say they believe 1t will
be. The price has dropped on the COM
mon stock from 10 to Z, equivalent to
drop from $50 to 20 on a stock of $lO0 par.
At present the dividend payment is equal
to almost 1l1a per cent. Even if the divi-
dend is TO be reduced to, say per cent
on the common, the return on the invest
ment at the present price would be nearly
per cent Considering the movement of
the stocks from technical point entirely
1t seems very probable that the insiders,
If they sold out six months or more ago
will be willing to buy them back now.
The latest rumOr regarding the company
is that a deal is to be made with the Edi-
son concern. What the truth of the story
is cannot be discovered, but the brokers
make the suggestion that If this is so, the
recent alleged pessimism of the insiders
may have been manipuatiVe entirely. in
order to get the price of the stock down,
and squeeze out the small holders.
The recent course of Mergenthaler Limo
type has been upward, and it has been
evident that the supply of stock has not
been equal to the demand On Saturday
the price was three or four points above
ITO Yesterday il went off somewhat but
this was easily explained when 1t was
learned that three or four brokers had
bought the stock in Boston early yester-
day morning at no and We're willing to
take their small profits Immediately The
strength of Merge nthaler seems to he
warranted by the news of the business
of the company that hlters through Vari-
Gus hands to this city The earnings are
larger than for some time past and IL
is said that the report Will be entirely sat
isfactory Ii is also promised semi-offi-
cialIy that an extra dividend will be de
