MORGAN SHORN
OF HIS POWER
ROCKEFELLER CANCELS BOND
CONVERSION SCHEME AND THE
BANKER LOSES MILLIONS.

NEW YORK, November 19.-John D.
Rockefeller's heavy hand fell upon
the throat of j. Pierpont Morgan today
| and shook loose from the grip of the
master manipulation of steel stocks
more than $12, 200, 900 of bond conversion
profits.
! The contract with j. p. Morgan &
| Company to convert $3.50, 200, 600 of pre-
ferred stock into bonds was cancelled.
| This action marks the passing of Nor
| gan. He is eliminated as a ruling pow
er in the steel company and his domi-
nance in Wall street is over. He must
hereafter report to Rockefeller. He
may be called on to restore the millions
his syndicate swept into it's Golfers by
buying steel stock at starving prices
and turning each certificate into bond,
reaping an average profit of $500 or
about $25, 100000.
That A. w. Thompson, president Of
the Republic Iron and Steel Company,
is scheduled to become the president
of the United States Corporation was
the word received from Youngstown,
Q. The absorption of the Republic
company by the steel trust is believed
to be Rockefeller's plan.
Without warning or advertisement
the oil king became also the steel king
of the country. His first official act
was to cut off at once further action
by the bond conversion syndicate head
ed by Morgan, which mas been charg-
ing the steel corporation 4 per cent on
all such conversions, while at the same
time making enormous profits on every
transaction. 1t was this act of Rookie
Teller that deprived Morgan of S12 000,-
600.
Judge E. H. Gary. chairman of the
board of directors of the United States
Steel Corporation, today gave out a
statement in regard to the syndicate
contract for the conversion of steel
preferred stock into second mortgage 5
per cent bonds, saying that no further
conversion of preferred stock beyond
the amount of $780, 00U, 900, the amount
already converted, would be made,
and that the syndicate contract would
be terminated at this figure. Already
SAG, 3SS,500 worth of bonds have been
issued in exchange for the stock.
Denial was made by a high official
of the report that a new syndicate was
to be formed to take over the bond OPP
erations. The existing syndicate, it
was added, would continue until it ex-
pired by limitation in July. 1904. This
syndicate, it was explained has simply
released to the United Stato~ Steel
Corporation the $15O,O000O0 worth of
bonds referred to above, for the con-
version of preferred stock into second
mortgage bonds of 5 per cent.
By converting $150,O0O 900 of per cent
preferred stock into per cent bonds
the corporation effects a yearly saw
| ing of 100000. The statement shows
that $20,000,000 of new bonds have been
| sold which called for interests charges
of $1,000000 a year. so that the great
saving on this item is 100000 a year.
1t is further estimated that if the
corporation should sell the $50, 600
bonds now in the treasury with addi-
tional interest charges of 81, 100000 a
year there would still be a yearly saw
| ing in interest of 100000

REPERTOIRE

The Neill season which opens at the
Hawaiian Opera House on Saturday
evening will give opportunity to see a
number of new and sterling plays
which have never been presented in
Honolulu before. The season opens
with "A Gentleman of France The
other plays in the repertoire are as fol-
lows: Commended Woman" Hon.
John Grigsby," THE Christian" The
Cowboy and the Lady" Little Min
ister," Fool of Fortune" 'Puddn
Head Wilson," "Starbucks," Under
the Red Robe" prince Karl" Red
Knight" Sowing the Wind" Ticket
of Leave Man"
These embraces a wide variety of au-
thorship, and some of them recall the
triumphs of great actors. THE Chris
tian," and Little Minister" suggest
the severer or more purposeful type of
fiction. "Pudd'n Head Wilson, is 4
dramatization of one of Mark Twain's
stories. Stanley j. Wyman, whose ro-
mances so lend themselves to dramatic
presentation, is well represented. THE
StarbuclIs" is one of Opie Reads stor-
les dramatized. On the whole it is a
very attractive repertoire, and should
result in an excellent season.

WOULD MAKE
CUBA A STATE
NEWLANDS PRESENTS A RESOLU-
TON LOOKING TO THE ANNEX
ALTON OF ISLAND REPUBLIC.

WASHINGTON, November 20.-Sen-
ator Newlands, author of the resolution
annexing Hawaii, toGay introduced a
come a state of the United States upon
terms of equality with the states of the
Union.
1t provides that Porto Rico shall
become a county or province of Cuba;
that all present officers of Cuba shall
retain their positions until their terms
expire; that the $35, 100000 bonds of
Cuba shall become the bonds of the
State of Cuba, with interest reduced
to per cent, and 2 per cent to be APP
piled to a sinking fund.- that the pres
ent rural guard of Cuba shall be in
corporated into the Army of the United
States; that the money in the Cuban
treasury shall become the money of the
State of Cuba.
The resolution closes with the follow
ing declaration: The foregoing reso-
luton is inspired, not by a desire to
over the island of Cuba, or to exercise
any form of compulsion, but solely by
q regard for the interest of the two
countries, and a conviction that the in
terests of the States comprising the
Federal Union and Cuba are identical,
and they can be administered by union
under one form of government in which
all shall be represented on equal terms,
and be governed by equal and undis-
eliminating laws insuring freedom of
trade and equality of rights and privi-
leges."

ROXBURGHE NOT
PLEASED WITH US
DUKE INDIGNANT AT TREAT
MENT HE RECEIVED IN AMER
ICA-CAMERAS ON STEAMERS.

LONDON, November 23.-The Duke
and Duches of RoXburghe were pas
sengers on the steamer Kaiser Will
helm II, which arrived today from
New York. They spent the greater
part of the passage in their state
rooms to avoid being annoyed by the
others passengers. Half a dozen anna
teur photographers spent their time
during the passage devising traps &c
catch the Duchess. Once a young
American successfully got a snapshot
of her when she was nthe boat deck
The Duchess, seeing that the young
man was trying to photograph her
flushed with annoyance and hurried
ly put her muff to her face, but she
was too late The photographer tri-
umphantly called to her, THANK you.
The Duchess angrily retorted, How
dare you?" After this experience she
kept to her cabin.
A passenger friend of the Duke
said they were indignant at the treat
ment they had received from the
newspapers and public on the occa-
sion of their wedding. When the
Duke arrived in the Unite States he
received the reporters courteously, but
finding that he was the target of SEN
sational and untrue stories, tending 10
make himself and his bride ridiculous,
he grew disguised. He does not care
to return to America. The couple are
now in Paris.

CHICAGO, November 20. To-day

service on the bench i'm Chicago by
Judge Joseph e, Gary. Such a lengthy
public career is said TO be without par

Great Britain among elected officials.
Judge Gary has presided at many me-
morable trials, notably that of the an
archists who were executed for bomb
throwing in Haymarket square. Though
so years of age, he retains the vigorous
mind and firmness of decision which
have been his pronounced Characters
tics during his long term as a jurilt.
His bar associates today gathered at
his courtroom in large numbers to pay
him their respects in celebration of his
anniversary.

TO ENACT LAWS
FOR TAX LEVY
GOVERNOR CALLS A SPECIAL
SESSION OF THE LEGISLATURE
TO CONVENE IN OREGON.

SALEM, Or, November Ex-Governor
Chamberlain today issued call to the
members of the Legislative Assembly
of Oregon for them to meet at the Cap
itol building, in this city, on Monday,
December 81, 1903, for the purpose of
converting in extraordinary session to
enact laws to provide for tax levy On
assessment rolls for the year 1903.
This call was made necessary by a
defect in the act passed by the Legis-
lative Assembly of 1908, providing the
manner of assessment and the levy and
collection of taxes, known as the
Phelps law. The Phelps law repealed
the old law, but did not provide for a
tax levy for 1903 thus leaving the state
and counties without revenue from tax
alton for an entire year.
Over sixty members of the Legisla-
ture, a majority of both houses, have
assured Governor Chamberlain that
they will enact none but legislation
which they deemed absolutely neces-
sary to the welfare or the state and
adjourn at the earliest possible date.
Had the extra session not been
called the State and all counties, towns
towns and districts would have been
thrown upon their own resources.

WEEKS BETWEEN
SAILING VESSELS

SINCE ANY SAILING SHIP AR
RIVED IN HONOLULU.

The situation IN local shipping is very
unusual There are now only FIVE sail
ing vessels I'M port and none OF these
are likely to depart within less than
q week.
shipping has been practically dead so
far as the sailing fleet is concerned.
The last sailing vessel to arrive in Hoo
noluu was the bark Albert. She ar
rived November 10 from san Francisco,
Just Is days ago. She sailed "a few days
ahead of the barkentlne Archer from
San Francisco but the latter vessel Is
still out. Captain McAlmon. the new
master of the Archer, is not having
good luck on his first trip. His vessel
is out "A days today. Evidently the
Archer has encountered calm weather
or else has been detained by the adj
verse winds that appear to have been
prevailing between here and San Fran
cisco.
The vessels coming the other way,
up from Newcastle, are also behind
time. The ship General Fairchild IS
now out 81 days. The schooners Kali
ua and the Matthew Turner are each
out IS days, and the ship j. u. Thomas
is out 50 days. The ship Henry VII
lard is out AZ days. All of these ves-
sells are ladened with coal for Honolulu
importers.
OF the vessels in port the ship George
Curtis is likely to be the first to de-
part. She is now waiting for sugar
ballast. She will get away about next
Thursday or Friday for San Francisco.
The bark Alden Besse is laying up
for the new crop. She gets away by
the end of this month. The bark Ge-
rard c. Tobey is also lying up indefi-
nitely. She will probably be sent away
at the end of this month with San
Francisco sugar. The bark Albert is
waiting for some sugar. The German
bark Solide, the remaining vessel, is
waiting for orders.

BOAT CREW
NEARLY LOST
FOUR MEN or ECLIPSE HAVE a
NARROW ESCAPE AT HONOIPU
VESSEL WEATHER BOUND.

Rough weather about Hawaii de-
layed the Gas. schr. Eclipse on her re-
turn trip to Honolulu. The vessel
nearly loN a boat and crew at Ho-
noipu last Friday. The sea was very
rough at Honoipu that day and the
boats had been worked under Difficult
ties, A shore line from the buoy to
the beach was used by the boats in
getting in and out with the loads Cap
tain Gahan had been on the deck of the
schooner all of the day Watching the
big rollers come booming in. When
ever he would see any very large ones
that looked as if they might endanger
the boats, he would shout to the crew
in the small boats to come out to sea
beyond the line of the breakers.
Toward the evening while the last
boat was inside the line of breakers.
Gahan saw three monster swells go
rushing in. He shouted to the crew
to come out. 1t was we'll that the
men did not try to buck against the
immense waves. Had they done so
the four men would have been lost and
the boat probably dashed to pieces on
the rocks. The boat was capsized by
the second breaker and all of the men
dumped out. One of the men was
thrown fully 10 feet into the air He
away from the boat. The undertow
was very strong but the men succeeded
in getting their boat ashore and bail
ing her out.
At Kawaihae the weather was the
toughest that Captain Gahan has ever
known in that place. The Eclipse ar
rived there Sunday night for a load of
cattle. The sea increased in volume
until it became so bad on Monday
that the anchorage of the vessel had
to be shifted. The sea began breaking
in eight fathoms of water. The Eclipse
was weatherbound two days 1t Ka-
waihae before she could load the cat
tie for Honolulu. she arrived here
yesterday afternoon. She sails this
afternoon for Maui and Hawaii ports.

FEW CHALLENGES
ARE LEFT
TWENTY JURORS EXAMINED IN
THE JONES CASE-sEVEN MORE
CHALLENGES.

The attorneys in the Jones case are
hopeful of swearing in jury this af-
ternoon and beginning the trial of the
case. When Judge Gear adjourned
court at noon the prosecution had only
one peremptory challenge left, and the
defense had only six, while there were
still twenty jurors to be examined.
Twenty were examined during the
morning session, and all were excused
Tor cause but two. Robertson for the
defense challenged II. E. Waity, who
passed for cause on Tuesday. w. H..
Coney was excused also by Robertson
John Waterhouse was passed as quail
fled to sit.
Among the As summoned to the court
there were many who asked the court
to excuse them, but Judge Gear was
not very easy" with excuses. Man
ager w. w. Goodale of Waialua plan
tation said he was postmaster at Waia-
lua and chairman of the road board,
wherefore he thought he was exempt,
but Gear refused to excuse him. He
had a deputy in the post office and
put in most of his time at the planta-
tion, GoOdale admitted. do you want
to get awaZ to attend to the post
office?" the judge asked, and Goodale
said he didn't. 1t was his plantation
business that made him anxious to
leave, and excuse was denied. Henry
de Fries and John Ouderkirk, contrac-
tors having government and other work
on hand which would suffer if they left
it, We're excused.
L. G. Kellogg said he was an attorney
at law, a deputy sheriff and a post
master at Wahiawa, and that any one
of the reasons was enough, in his OPT
Mon. Judge Gear said that the deputy
sheriff excuse would suffice. and Kel-
logg was excused on that ground alone.
