PRECINCTS AT WORK ARE LONG TIME OUT /
FOREIGN VESSELS MAKING LONG
PASSAGES.
German Bark Long Overdue From
Hamburg-British Ship Also Out
Many Days From Liverpool.

There are several foreign vessels
bound from various ports to Honolulu,
which are overdue. The German bark
Alsterschwan from Hamburg is now
out 174 days. This is an unusually long
passage and some anxiety is being felt
for the vessel.
The British ship Yola due from Liv-
erpool is also out an unusually long
time. She sailed from Liverpool 164
days ago. She should have reached this
port within 12O days. The Norwegian
bark Australia is out 127 days from
Leith. The Italian ship Wallacetown Is
also out 124 days from London.
With the possible exceptions of the
Alsterschwan and YOla no great alarm
is felt for the safety of the vessels. The
German boat is considerably overdue.

cured on her now.
The German ship II. f. Glade has

BOUNTIES
GERMANY RATIFIES BRUSSELS
CONFERENCE.
Will Grant no Further Bounty to Beet
Sugar Growers After September, 1903.
Good News for Hawaii

Germany has ratified the action Of the
Brussels Sugar Conference and after
September of 1903 there will be no
more bounty paid by Germany on beef
sugar produced in that country. This
news is the best that has come i'm a
long time, for it means that the sugar
interests of these islands and elsewhere
will not have to buck government boun-
ty sugar.
The news was received by g. Brewer
and Company by the America Maru in
a letter from Welch and Company of
San Francisco dated June 6, The news
is announced in the briefest manner as
follows "A telegram from n. Y. states
that London telegraphs, that Germany
ratfes the Brussels Conference"
The receipt of this news caused the
greatest satisfaction among the local
sugar factors as IL was realized that 1t
will prove ultimately of great benent
to the producers of cane sugar.
The Brussels Conference was held
some months ago. 1t was composed
of delegates from all of the beet sugar
producing countries of Europe, to con-
slider the situation resultant from an
over production of beet sugar. Accord
ing to the way in which business was
conducted, the beet sugar was not rais-
ed with any hope of securing a legiu-
mate profit from the sale.Of the product
bounty granted 1t made no difference
to the producer what he. received for
his stuff out side of his own land, just
so he received the government bounty.
The delegates We're empowered to
pass resolution abolishing those boun-
ties and this resolution was in turn, to
be sumbitted To. the. various countries
for their ratification or rejection. Ger
many was the country which had all
along opposed the abolition Of the
bounty. The German Kartel which was
virtually a trust formed by all of the
growers of that country regulated the
price of sugar in Germany, while the
sale of the product elsewhere was made
at the best figure obtainable.
Evienuy influence was brought to
bear on the German government to in
uCe them to TecOnsier their former
stand, for the dispatch received by c.
Brewer and Company. brief as it is
| shows that Germany has decided to get
! into line and abolish the unreasonable
| bounty system which fostered and Kept
| awe an unnatural industry.
The abolition of this bounty means
| that the overproductiOn of beet sugar
! will soon be thing of the past In
! stead of raising a product at the ex-
| pense of the government. The growers
| of beet sugar will be forced now to
| compete with the balance of the world
and the benefit will be felt by the grow
| ers elsewhere. The action of the Brus-
| sells Conference in recommending the
| abolition of the bounty, was regarded
| by many as about the best solution of
the Cuban sugar problem which had
| been presented.

ALBATROSS ON kauai
DIVERS DID NOT LOCATE LOST
KILAUEA CABLE.
Schooner Waialua not Floated at Ana
Brought by the Noeau.

Divers made an unsuccessful attempt
this week to recover the lost cable at
Kilauea. During heavy weather over a
month ago. the cable parted. Every eff
fort was made at the time by Captain
Mosher and the officers of the Ke Au
HOu to recover the cable but no trace
of it could be found.
Samuel Lyle had some divers at XII
lauea this week trying to recover the
cable but, owing to the peculiar char
acter of the harbor at Kilauea, no trace
could be found. The sand is very fine
and shifting at Kilauea, and the bot
tom is constantly changing. This con-
ditiOn prevented the divers from -Ocat-
ing the wire.
Captain Tullett of the steamer James
Makee which arrived today from Kauai
ports, reports that the schooner Waia-
lua had not been tloated at Anahola. An
attempt will be made next week Ia
get the wreck off the beach.
The schooner Kailua will begin load
ing sugar at MakaWeli on Monday.
The Albatross was at Hanalel on
Thursday night and sailed yesterday
for Waimea. She expects to return to
Honolulu tomorrow or Monday.
According to news brought yesterday
from Hawaii by the Noeau, two days
were lost at Hamakua ports this week
on account of the mills having shut
down for holiday and refusing to take
freight from the steamer. HOnokaa
Mill will soon shut down until the end
of August. Pacific Sugar Mill will
grind until the end of July.

AS consul general in New England
for the Hawaiian government for seven
years a prominent Newton resident
since 1865, and a wholesale druggist of
Boston for 40 years, Mr.. Gilman has ac-
quired a position in the ranks of the
well known men of Massachusetts.
Born in Hollowell, Me-, his early edu-
cation was secured in the Hallowell
academy. Upon completing his studies
he was employed for time as clerk
in store, but gave this up for the ad-
venture that promised in an opportu-
nifty to go to sea. During 1910 Mr. Gil
man shipped upon vessel that sailed
AROUND cape morn ana cary tne next
year reached Honolulu. Here the young
sailor found an opening in the CONNER
cal enterprises of the islands
At the first news in 1S4S of theVdis-
covery of gold in California Mr.. Gill
man left Hawaii for the United States.
His association there with other seek
ers after wealth entitled him to mem
bership i'm the organization of Califor-
mia pioneers. and today he occupies the
position of vice president in that body.
Returning to Hawaii in the spring of
1919. Mr.. Gilman continued as a mer-
chant there until 1861 when he return
ed to the United States. Mr.. Gilman
removed with his family to Newton in
1865, having established business in
Boston with his brothers.

the king and queen Mr.. Gilman receiv-
ed in the form of royal decorations sent

HE WANTED TO DIE

Advices brought from the Nippon
Maru, by the Gaelic June 6. tell of an
attempt at suicide by one of the Japa-
nese passengers who boarded the Nip
pom Maru at Honolulu. #. Imamasu
was his name. He threw himself over
board on the third day after leaving
Honolulu. Captain Greene the master
of the Nippon Maru, happened to be on
watch at the time and he stopped the
vessel and had a boat lowered in a
short time. Imamasu was rescued. 1t
appears that the Nippon Maru reached
Yokohama on the same day that the
Gaelic departed and a passenger sent
the account of the attempted suicide
back by the Gaelic to the Hawaii Shin
DO.

THE CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
Wheat Closes Weak, While Corn Scores
on Crop Report.

CHICAGO, March 1.-THE Government
report, showing farm reserves calculated
at 1853 900 600 bushels. only 30, 600, 600 bush
els more than last year, was generally
considered lullish and caused higher
opening in wheat. but good general rains
in Southern Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas
caused free liquidation by longs and the
market closed weak, AGl2 cent lower
than last night. Foreign markets, after
opening firm and higher, later lost the
advance and closed lower. There was a
fairly good demand for cash wheat by
local millers, and the seaboard reported
good business done there for export on
the break.
Corn-There was a fairly large trade in
corn today and the market held very
steady, considering the weakness in
wheat, and closed a cent higher than last
night. The Government report, showing
a reserve of only 1874, ,000, 900 bushels, was
decidedly bullish, and being a great deal
less than generally expected simply goes
to prove that the feeding has been good
deal larger than generally calculted. 1t
means that farmers in the four months
since the harvest have disposed of almost
1000, ,000,0 600 bushels from last years crop,
in addition to all reserves carried over
from the previous crop and will surely re-
suit sooner or later in much higher
prices. Foreign markets were firm. Coun-
try offerings were very light, practically
nothing Cash demand was quiet and fair
ly liberal sales were reported.
Oats ruled steady all day within mar
row range, with only light trade, and
closed firm, y. cent higher than last night.
The Government report, showing farm
reserve OF only 1876, 100000 bushels, was
decidedly bullish. Last year 1t was 293'-
900, 900 and in 1898. the smallest previous
ly reported. il was 272, 100000
Provisions opened quiet and lower, in
spite of higher hogs, but had the usual
bull support and it rallied the market,
closing firm with gains.
The following are the quotations:
