STACKABLE AND
COINAGE CHANGE

l. Spalding, of Spreckels & CO..
bank, representing the various banks Of
Honolulu, yesterday requested Collector
of Customs Stackable TO accept the ap-
pointment as fiscal agent for the United
States Treasury Department for the
redemption of the Hawaiian silver
coins and the substitution of a like
amount Of American coins. There were
three mentions for the position: r. H.
Chamberlain. the Internal Revenue
Collector, the National Bank of Hawaii,
and Collector Stackable. The first de-
clined. the bank was not ready to as
sumo the responsibility at the present
time. and it was practically UP to Col
lector Stackable, as the last Federal
officer, to aci.. Mr.. StackabIe said that,
under the circumstances, he would &C
cept the position, but on the condition
that the local banks go on his bonds,
which must represent just double the
amount of money that is to be re-
deemed.
Far from desiring the position as
fiscal agent, the Collector would have
preferred that it go to some one else,
as it merely adds to the burden of his
present office without any extra COM
pensation. His condition that the
bankers go upon his bond saves him the
expense to which he would otherwise
bondsmen. The work in connection
with the redemption will be consider
able, as there will be the asserting,
counting, sacking and boxing of the
coins, together with the making up OF
lists and records in detail, the labor
of bookkeeping, depositing American
coins in the various banks as the SUBJ
stitute for that shipped away from Ha-
wall to the sub-treasury at San Fran
cisco, making out the checks to the
banks in payment for the coins so sent
away, and various other items.
AS about $500, 900 in Hawaiian money
will be redeemed by the same amount
Of money in American coins OF the same
Collector StackabIe will
be obliged to divide the American |
money into amounts of two to three
hundred thousand dollars for depositing
in the different banks, as no one bank
has vaults large enough to hold all this
money.
Collector Stackable yesterday made
tests with the quarter, half and dollar
denominations of Hawaiian money at
with all the dirt attached
to them. All were found to be about OF
the standard weight, 4121k grains for
the dollar. Then Prof. ingalls,, at the
custom house, cleaned off the coins,
scrubbing them with chemicals a
iollar so cleaned only weighed 41113
grains. All coins are to be redeemed

In the Chinese quarter last night.
despite the high wind that swung the
big lanterns in all directions as
it came bowling around the corners,
sweeping splits of rain before it. the
streets We're crowded with a good ma
tured, jostling throng of merry makers, |
and although most of the Chinese stores |
were closed, there was much calling
and returning of calls, and a general air
of open house on the part of the resi-
dents. The theaters played to big |
houses, bands were stationed on the
various club house balconies and if
there was not so much of a display of |
fire works as in former years, perhaps
the storm that has held the city in it's
grasp for a couple of days was as much
to blame for that as anything else.
On lower King street there were open
games of something Asiatic that is
played with dice and a considerable
noise, but even in the crowds that
pushed and jostled about the little
tables of the gamesters there was or

The disturbed condition of business,

When q like disturbance Of business
existed in 1893, they placed the blame
on the democrats and passage OF q
tariff bill that reduced the tariff.
Now there is no fear Of tariff reduc-
tion. for at least two years, and they
assure US that President Roosevelt and

in 1904 and yet the business depres-
sion has commenced under their aus
pieces. There is something rotten in
the state Of Denmark, but the repub-
icans do not explain or cannot see the

fear of what their cratic president
will do? Is the protective tariff too
