Value of Ore Deposits.

SPeaking of the ore holdings of
the steel corporations, the Philadel-
phia News Bureau, after reviewing
sever raj recent sales of iron proper.
ties on the Mesaba range says:
The ores involved in these sales
are much below the average intrin-
sig value of Lake Superior q res, burt
all the old-range high grade ores
were |gobbled up long agp by the
various ore and furnace interests,
and DO not figure in the market at
alI
If lean -Bessemer ore, aver
aging 5 say 55 per cent iron, compar~
atiyely expensive to mine, as against
ores Whichcan be mined by strip
pingpr exist in very large under.
}grouhd deposits, is worth 40 cents
froyafy, then the rich ores, running
(fromPO to 65 per cent and easily
'mine4, ought to be worth from 81 to
So in Ihe ground.
Ih{ subsidiary mining compan-
les os the steel corporation have
l)een larning down properties right
s;alonawhere there is a cash pay
nnentso be made at time of taking
lteaselnd letting the properties go
tto ptArs, yet in general the corpor-
ateion iould use these ores to better
acava1age than could most outsid
ersb, ifFe except the Snyder inter
esi,ts. is not. as one might sup
poe e)se, rule subject to no conditions
tina # tf richer and purer an ore the
behsten The best ores in the Lake
SuTpe1pr region are 50 pure that
thaeyd not furnish Stag enough in
tn sblet furnace, and such pure
oifek tust be mixed with limited,
q,Rt ties p.,rr So tos make
tt,t;Hfght mix.
Wlen the proportion of leaner
ore rises above the desired point,
the quantity of coke and flux re:
quired increases so fast that the
coss of making pig. iron advances
rapidly. The corporation having
the fichest ores can use leaner ores
to advantage.
Thus the valuation of a dollar a
ton on his ore by J. !. Hill is not
really excessive, as while his ores
are all Mesaba so are the ores whose
sale, is noted above, while Hills ores
comprise some of the very best on
the range, and they are to be paid
for simply as mined, the guarantee
of freight for the Hill roads not be-
ing onerous. and being the only
nearby payment demanded' of the
steel corporation.
On this basis also the valuation
of a dollar ton on the corpora
TONS ore is conservative rather than
excessive. They are the pick of the
whole district, which are worth
more than Mesaba. The only ques-
tion about them is their present
value, their intrinsic value being
we'll established. They are repre-
sented by Understanding securi-
ties outstanding, and the question
of ore as mined earning the interest
on ore to be mined for years hence
we have already discussed, showing
that profits made on ore alone as
mined would pay interest on and
retire the $305, 100000 of bonds, and
leave enough to retire the other Sc
curities outstanding in 30 years,
with good margin to spare, leav-
ing the earnings of the various op-
erations beyond mining to divi-
dends on the remaining securities.

DOLE GIVES
TWO SENTENCES
ROSS GETS ONE YEAR AND A
FINE FOR ROBBING POST
OFFICE.

Judge Dole gave his first sentences as
United States judge this morning, in
the case of Hyashida, charged with
importation of Japanese contract la
borers and Manuel Ross, charged with
embezzling Post Office funds. Both
the defendants had pleaded guilty.
In the Jap's case United States At
torney Breckons said that he did not
think the circumstances warranted a
heavy penalty and F. z. Thompson
also made a plea for mercy for the de-
fendant The court imposed a SEN
tence of three months Imprisonment.
Ross asked for a light sentence,
stating that he had wife and children
and a grandfather SO years of age to
look after. Judge Dole imposed a
sentence of twelve months imprisOn-
ment and a fine of $3.50. Az, the amount
of Ross embeZZlement.
In the case of Yonihara E. NJ. Watson
called the courts attention to a de-
mand made upon him by Breckons for
some documents turned over to Wat
son by the defendant, when Watson
was his attorney. Watson intimated
that they would incriminate Yonihara,
who is under indictment and said lie
would not turn them over unless the
court ordered it. Breckons said that
the court had nothing to do with it,
and that he didn't care anyhow, for he
had obtained the contents of the docu-
ments, and Judge Dole said he would
not interfere in the matter, but would
leave the attorneys to settle it for
themselves.

HARBOR
CASES ENDED
SEVENTY-FIvE THOUSAND PAID
TO HONOLULU PLANTATION IN
OPEN COURT.

The United States paid $4,000 to F.
NJ. Hatch as representative of the Ho-
nolulu Plantation Company this morn
ing, and received, through United
States Attorney j. j. Dunno, full title
to the lana needed for a Pearl harbor
naval station and held by the planta-
ton. 1t was the closing transaction in
the numerous condemnation proceed
ings begun two years ago before Judge
Estee.
Dunno handed the check to Hatch in
open court, and the deed and other
necessary documents We're handed to
him in exchange The attorney for
the United States presented a stipula-
tion, by which both parties agreed to
a judgment in favor of the United
States, with payment of $4,000. The
suit is thus settled and the last of the
Pearl harbor litigation is ended.
The sum of $4,000 is the amount
which Judge Estee fixed upon nearly
two years ago. The first jury trial of
the case resulted in averdict for $685.,
600 and the second 100000. In setting
aside the judgment of the jurors Judge
Estee held that the court could APP
prove the jury's verdict in favor of the
United States for possession of the
land, if the compensation were made
$4,000. The proposition was refused
and an appeal was taken. The appel
late court sent the case back here for
a third trial, and a compromise WAS
agreed upon in the meantime.

SEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS PAID TO THE ORDER
OF THE TERRITORY

Here is what happened to the Ha-

Treasurer Kepoikai from the L. $.

I'm consideration of our assistance in

The new proposition is a highly fav-
orable one for the Territory but Ke-
poikai had serious doubts of the legal
ity of the action asked. The Territory
has to pay Az per cent interest on the
million dollars, and it would cut the in
terest down to 1h per cent to leave the
money with the Trust Company and re-

PLANTERS HEAR
VARIOUS REPORTS
SEVERAL IMPORTANT MEASURES
ADOPTED AT SESSION TODAY
COMMITTEE TO BE APPOINTED.

The session of the Planters Associa-
ton this morning was occupied with
listening to reports from various COM
mittees. While Professor Perkins was
unable to prepare a report on Diseases
of Cane" a very interesting discussion
of the leaf hopper took place.
For the committee on Forestry L. A.
Thurston read highly interesting re-
port telling of the progress made in
this respect. f. NJ. SwanZy for the
committee on the Experimental Station
told of the work at that place. A re-
port from c. +. Eckart the head che
mist of re station was also heard,
on motion of ]. A. Low of Honolulu
Plantation two resolutions were adopt
ed. One was to provide for the ap-
pointment of a committee on Labor
Saving Devices. This committee Is to
meet with the board of trustees for the
purpose Of deciding about the spending
of money for the encouragement of in
venting such devices The other re-
solution provided that in future, all re-
ports of committees should be printed
about the time of the annual meeting
so that the members could be better
prepared to discuss the points covered,
1t was also decided that there should
be a uniform system of ok-keeping
on the plantations in order to enable
the managers to obtain more detailed
and correct comparisons regarding the
cost of operation.
An adjournment was taken until l:8C
p. m, an executive session is being held
this afternoon.

ceive three per cent. Otherwise a large
sum on which the Territory is paying
interest must remain idle, as it is inn
possible to spend all at once.
The extra $1,000 is for accrued inter
est, and is in accordance with the form
of bid drawn UP by Carter and the ".
5. Mortgage & Trust Company. The
cable to KepoilSai means that the mil
lion dollars is at the disposal of the
Territory.
A meeting of Governor Carter. Trea-
surer Kepoikai and local bankers will
be had to discuss the new proposition
made by the trust company. Kepoi-
kai this morning expressed the opinion
that under the audit act he could not
turn the money over to the trust COM
pany though it would be a proposition
of much benefit to the Territory. One
way out of it may be to allow the COM
pany to delay turning it over and pay
interest up to the time of its being
given to the Territory for use.

NEWSBOYS'
THANKSGIVING
ARRANGEMENTS MADE FOR THE
ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION
INAUGURATED BY THE STAR.

All arrangements are made for the
Star Newsboys Thanksgiving dinner
and outing. The boys were consulted
as to their preferences in regard to a
program for the day, a plan for a
picnic trip into the country being sug-
gested as an alternative to the pro-
gram that has been i'm vogue for so
many years past. But the boys de-
cided they would rather have the din
ner the ride about town afterwards
and the visit to the football game af-
terwards. SO that will be the pro-
gram this year.
The boys will meet at the Star office
at noon Thanksgiving Day, and from
there they will march in procession to
the Love Bakery on Nuuanu street
where a bountiful repast will be served
There will be roast turkey in abund-
ance, with cranberry sauce, and all the
garnishments that properly go with
1t. Then there will be candy and
fruit and soda water, and other things.
After dinner the boys will march back
to the Star office where they will be
provided with fish horns, and taking
busses will drive about the town, and
afterwards to the new baseball park
to witness the football game. At the
football game they will be the guests
of the Football League. A number of
merchants and business houses have
asked to be allowed to contribute some
thing for the pleasure and enjoyment
of the boys, anon them the Oahu Ice
and Electric Company which cOntri-
butes the necessary ice for the drink
ables that the boys will consume.
Everything promises another day Of
sheer enjoyment for the boys.
