BONDS DROP
Down to SIS Because

increase.

Oceanic Steamship Company bonds
are again on the toboggan. Since last
month they have slumped in value
from 500 down to $50, yesterday. There
are 100000 of these bonds outstand-
ing and they bear per cent interest.
Their value is going down, because the
floating debt of the company is con-
stantIy on the increase. This floating
debt is about $1,500,000 now, and rep
resents advances made the company by
it's agents, John D. Spreckels Bros. &
co.
These agents cannot fall back on
stock assessments any more. the par
value of the stock having been paid
up with the last two assessments of
SO each and one of $3.50. The assess
ments in The aggregate, raised about
100000 ami went to pay off lot OF
debts. But in spite OF that fact, the
floating deot has gone skyward again.
The stock now ranges in value between
S2.75 and $3.50 a share. There are 25,0oo
shares, and within less than three years
they have gone down to practically
nothing
These same causes have dragged
down the bonds. Three years ago they
were at a premium, selling for $1O7.
When they began to decline. the down
ward movement never stopped for any
length of time until the s55 of satur-
day was reached.
The original purchasers of the bonds
bought them at par. So these people,
if, for any reason, they are forced to
sell their investment, would lose heavi-

tEeir interest seems pretty secure as
long as there is a floating debt due

to allow the interest to go delinquent

holders In that case. the floating debt !
as representing advances to the COM !
pany by the agents would be placed
in peril. /
How much longer the ffoat ting debt |
will continue to increase cannot be
predicted. How soon and in what way
It is to be decreased is another puz-
sling question. Stock and bondholders

PRESIDENT TO RECOMMEND
DEEPENING THE HARBOR
Secretary Atkinson Gables That Roosevelt Viii
Adopt Course Suggested by Governor Carter
In His Annual Report

when the largest vessels of the Pa
cific Mail fleet hesitate to come in.
They could probably make it all right,
but their captains prefer a deeper
cushion of water under their hulls when
the ships are heavily laden. A mini
mum depth of thirty-four feet of water
in the harbor would of course call for a
much greater depth in the channel
and the largest ships could then come
in at ali times.
This is a work, too. that should prop
erly be paid for by the national gov
ernment. The case of Honolulu is in
some respects exceptional, nevertheless
when it comes tc the long last the
harbor belongs to the nation-and har-
Dor work everywhere else in the coun-
try is done at government expense. In
fact, there is not another American
port where anybody would think of
harbor improvement otherwise than as
a national charge.

immediate vacancies, will be informed
as soon as there is one.
One of the special features of the
agency is to supply medium for plac-
ing citizens and those eligible to citi-
zenship, in such vacancies as may
occur.
A ground of criticism of the sugar
plantations has heretofore been that
American citizens We're Disseminated
against on them. This charge has
largely grown out of the difficulty of
getting employers and would-be en-
ployes into communication with each
other; consequently it has frequently
happened that a good man in Honolulu
has failed tc secure employment pc
cause the plantation managers on the
other islands have not known that he
was available. 1t is earnestly hoped
and desired by the planters that all
competent Killed citizen labor which
desires employment on the plantations
shall have the opportunity to secure
it, 1t is believed that this agency will
provide this opportunity.
The bureau will be conducted by the
secretary of the Planters Association,
Mr.. w. o. Smith, at his office on the
second floor of the Judd building.

in his message to Congress your rec

I'm my report to the President as

a recommendation that Congress be
asked to appropriate s5o,o60 to be devot-
ed to the scientific study of leprosy
wherever it should be found to exist

be no difficulty in placing the bonds
in New York as favorably as the bonds
of the last issue were placed.
The public funds of the United
States. as is wei known, are no longer
boarded in the Treasury at Washing
ton. but are deposited in banks
throughout the country TO meet the
reeds of business. The banks designat-
ed as government repositories are re-
quired to deposit in their turn securi-
ties with the Secretary of the Treas
ury for the money in their hands, and
these securities can only be of the gilt
edged sort, naturally. In this class
Secretary Shaw apparently places the
Territorial bonds. Secretary Atkinson
is to be congratulated upon the sue
cess that has attended his mission.

| The following is an extract from La
Novedades, a newspaper published in
New York, and purports to be cable
gram from Panama It is possible
that the item refers to former Judge
Little of Hilo and it shows that he is
still against the government:
PANAMA. Nov. Judge Little, an
American lawyer and attorney for the
Panama Lottery Co., entered plea of
habeas corpus on behalf of an agent of
the lottery company arrested by a po-
lice officer of the canal zone in the
suit of the United States government
against the lottery company and pre-
sented an important argument with
interesting points to be submitted to
the Supreme Court of the United
States
Judge Little said that the lottery
company had franchise and con-
cession granted by the government Of
Panama several years ago and over this
the government of the United States
has no control and jurisdiction so long
as the franchise continues. Accord
ing to the treaty, the rules establish
ed in Porto Rico and Philippines
should apply to Panama in consider
alton of the fact that while the above
possessions We're acquired by force of
arms the rights of the United States in
Panama We're obtained by virtue of
treaty.
''In his argument Judge Little critic
lied the policy of the United States as
a usurpation of the rights and priv
ileges not stipulated in the treaty. He
said that the Panamans had never be-
lieved very much in the sincerity of
President Roosevelt concerning the
compliance with the terms of the
treaty, but that he hoped to see the
american people compel the President
to fulfill the obligations acquired in
the name of his nation or declare him
responsible for the failure to do So

Val speclal to the Advertiser.)

(Man Special to the Advertiser.)
WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. H.
With the Presidential election over. the
rush of people towards the National
Capital is beginning. The arrivals are
Increasing daily and plans for starting
governmental business at full tilt are
undertaking. Senators and members
of the House are already coming and
the number viii grow till Thanksgiving
Day, soon after which the entire Con-
gress will be here to resume the session
beginning the first Monday in Decem-
Der.
The item of most interest to Hawaii
in these preIiminaries is the calling of
a meeting of the House Committee on
Rivers and Harbors for one week from
tomorrow, which is November q.
Chairman Burton has made that an
nouncement and is himself expected
here within few days to make prep
arations for framing a River and Har-
Dor bill There has been no definite
statement from him yet about the de-
sired improvements OF Honolulu harbor
but the friends of the Territory are
very hopeful Much will depend upon
the general policy adopted with refer
ence to the bill. It has been in Mr.
Burton's mind that the government
ought now to embark upon larger
policy of river and harbor Improve
ments. If he decides to advocate that

at this session of Congress he VIII
frame bill in the House committee,
providing for a total of 1000. 900 or
more. With such a policy undertaken
by Congress it is altogether likely that
Honolulu would be amply provided for.
One difficulty intervenes. That is the
lack of revenues. But already serious
movement is on foot to revise the tariff,
with view not only to reducing the.
duty on highly protected products but
also for the purpose of providing more
revenue. It is well understood in gov
ernment circles that lower duties on
certain classes of products produce
more revenue than high duties
TARIFF REVISION.
No decision has yet been reached
about tariff revision, for which an ex-
ira session of Congress would be i'm
perative. The Republicans are even
discouraging agitation of the subject
and trying TO make it appear for the
present, that there is no hope what
ever of revision. The object of that is
TO prevent any disturbance of business
by premature agitation Along in Feb
Tuary, after he has had full oppor-
tunity to talk the matter over with
leaders in Congress. the President will
make up his mind what is TO be done.
He recently told friend that he in
tended to go on a trip into Texas next
spring. provided he did not call an
extra session of Congress. The Repub-
ucan revisionists are very earnest in
urging that the tariff be reduced at
once and they profess considera bic hope
that it viii be done, so that the new
