Two weeks ago a married woman
was the second time adjudged insane
by the Honorable County Court Of Iron
county. Her trial was had under all
due form Of law, and preparation was
made to send her to one of the public
asylums founded and maintained for
the care of people In her unfortunate
mental condition. The County Clerk
was ordered to Immediately communi-
cate with the superintendent of the
asylum located at Fulton. This he did,

The local wheat market presents a
quiet appearance these days, though
quotations are up half cent or bet

is quoted around sc to 661a cents on

hands at these prices within the past
three days, but the aggregate would
not total over 10000 bushels. A gen

IN VERY BAD CONDITION.
Damp and Damaged Wheat Beinu
Received.

Tacoma, Oct. 14.-More wet, dam
aged, smutty and sprouting wheat is
being received here since the nov
seasons crop began to pour in from
the east side districts than during
any similar length of time, since the
state grain inspection has been es-
tablishei. The evil has now reached
point where State Inspector ARA
smith has been compelled to recog-
nlze its magnitude and endeavOr to
take some means to check it. The
trouble seems to be that the past
summer and fall, when harvesting and
threshlng were in progress, were I'M
usually wet. Despite the best eff
1orts Tor the preservation Of the
crops, much Of the wheat became
damp.
When threshing would begin in a
certain district that had been visited
with too much rain, it would be found
that the grain exposed to the weather
on the top and outside of the stack
was very damp. Instead Of segregat-
ing this from the dry wheat in the
center OF the stack, it was all thresh-
ed together, thus damaging and MAX
ing of an inferior grade the entire
bulk Of grain threshed from the stack.
Later, when the grower would find
that his grain was damp and bgein-
ming to heat and spoil, he rushed it
to market in order to save himself.
This accounts for the very large per-
centage of poor wheat now rolling in
TO Puget Sound ports and to Spokane,
the eastern Washington inspection
point. Firms here have received dam
aged grain in great quantities.
Attempts are being made to save
that which is spelling by spreading
it out on the floors of the large ware
houses to dry, and one buying
hrm Of Tacoma has about 5000 bush
els Of such grain now spread out On
account Of the moisture-laden atmo-
sphere Of the Sound country, however
the process Of drying is tediously
slow. and vexatious. especially as the
warehCuserOOm is needed for other
purposes. The grain inspectors office

Morgan &. Co., and Charles M. Schawt
in the sale of the Bethlehem Steel
company unsettled matters in Wall

acted by Mr.. Schwab was to be unload

other stock of the company could be
sold, was condemned as an unwarrant-
ed piece Of fnanciering.
The exposure was admitted by
bankers to be the severest blow Wall
street has ever received, because OF
the great prominence Of Morgan G
Co., and the widespread public conf
dence in it.

witness stand is now the chief OBJ

made to Judge LacOmbe of the Unit

brought forth some hot interchange of
sarcasm, and personalities were also
flung about to a shameful extent. The
cause of this warm debate 90 arose
from the fact that an opinion expressed

Gentlemen: Several bills affecting

of intoxicating liquors throughout all
parts of the Territory of Hawaii. You

Lands Devoted to the
Support of Prince
Albert.
To Go TO Wise Charity il He
Left No Legitimate
Issue.

1 AS trustee under the will of the late
Queen Emma, Bruce Cartwright has
turned over to the Board of Trustees
of the Queen Emma Hospital five very
valuable pieces of real estate on the
islands of Hawaii and Maui. These
pieces of property, or the income from
them: rather, under the win of the late
Queen were to be devoted to the sup
port, during his life time, of the late
Prince Albert Kunuiakea, the last heir
of the Kamehamehas. II the Prince
had had any legitimate children, it was
farther provided in the will, that these
pieces of property should descend to
them at the death of the Prince and
become theirs in fee simple.
AS is well known, the Prince did not
leave legitimate offspring, and Mr.
Cartwright has lost no time in acting
in the matter The legacy comes as a
most agreeable surprise to the Trus-
tees of the Hospital, and viii be of
great help to them in the pursuit of
the charitable work of the institution,
which was lately deprived of material
part of it's endowment.
The several pieces of property turned
over by Mr.. Cartwright are listed as
follows:
The Ahupuaa of Kealahewa, in the
Kohaia district. island of Hawaii.
The Ahupuaa of Kawaihae, also in ]
the Kohala district of Hawaii.
The Ahupuaa of Kamoannoa in the
Puma district of Hawaii.
The Waikahekahe in the Puma dis
trict of Hawaii.
The land of Halakaa near the town
of Lahaina. Maui.
These several estates comprise large
acreage, stock grazing land, for the
most part, but some portions are coffee
and sugar lands In fact, some of the
lands in Kohala are already under lease
to the plantations. The entire estate,
under careful management, it is esti-
mated, will produce net income of not
less than $4,000 a year.
