creased largely during the past few

more market for individual use than
there ever was. Perhaps a few people,

RusSA's PORT ARTHUR FLEET.

IF there are five batt1eships able to
cona ont of Port Arthur, as the OH
cial Japanese report says, the actl'al
battleship losses from the japanese
torpedo attack of February 8, exclusive
of cruisers, are two. In ADDITION TO
the five battleships, four cruisers and
ten torpedo destroyers appeared. Be
fore the first attack the Russian naval
force in Port Arthur was listed at
seven battleships, two armored CRUZ
sers, seven protected cruisers, four IN
protected cruisers, two armed gun
boats. three unarmed gunboats, two
torpedo gunboats. one auxiliary CRUZ
ser. nineteen torpedo boat destroyers
and ten torpedo boats. OF this fleet
one battleship went to the Red Sea,
two cruisers, the variag and Korietz,
went to Chemulpo and were sunk, and
one unarmed gunboat, the Mandjour,
went to Shanghai, leaving fleet in
Port Arthur of fifty-three vessels of
all classes. OF these the Japanese
claim to have disabled eleven, count
ing some of the battleships that have
since been in action But if we grant
eleven. there remsir forty-two Russian
warships which constitute a force of
no inconsiderable strength and one
that the japanese are wise to bottle
up.
1t may be that some of the five bat
tleships which appeared outside Port
Arthur during the last bombardnent
are merely patched up SO they
win do for gun platforms in
smooth water. As to that, one
must wait developments. Certainly
their failure to leave the guns of the
forts and attack the japanese fleet
would indicate either structural weak
ness. or cowardfce on deck.
The bombardment referred to occur
red before the sinking of seven mer-
chantmen in the channel of Port Ar
thur as reported a day or two ago from
Japanese sources. If this latter news
is true the possession of a strong fleet
by the Russians will be of slight avail.

SUGAR.

Sugar is steadily rising in price and
those who are closest to the market
believe that it viii reach four cents
AT 3-601 it is lower than the product of
the beet. The increase of price re-
ported yesterday would have sold last
years crop for $4,000 more than the
island sugar brought. Four cent sug-
ar would automatically put the staple
Hawaiian industry and all kinds of
business depending upon it in good
shape. A rising thermometer no more
signifies warmer weather than a rising
sugar market indicates better times.

OIL FOR THE BODY

You can't lose an atom
without feeling it. The body
is like an engine, a watch,
machine; must be kept in
good order to run right.
That's the reason SCOTS
Emulsion is so successful in
all wasting diseases. 1t feeds,
nourishes and strengthens
when ordinary food won't.
Doctors say SCOTS Emul-
sion is the best nourishment
for those who are not as well
as they should be.
We use the whole oil in
SCOTS Emulsion because the
great reputation of cod liver
oil as a food and medicine
was made by using it in this
way. Substitutes in the shape
of wines, cordials, extracts,
ETC., should be carefully
avoided.

The late William H. Coney was an
example of the sort of men that result
from the mingling of Chinese and Ha-
waiian strains. There is no better
racial cross. Mr.. Conveys uncle. John
Ena, illustrates this chronological fact
in life of remarkable business pre-
science and success, and Mr. Coney
showed it in his energy as a college
student and in the hard work and in
telligent grasp of events which he dis
played in the newspaper business.
He was, undoubtedly, the leading jour
naIist OF Hawaiian antecedents. He.
did things in the white mans way, yet
his sympathies were always with the
native people and had he lived a few
years longer he might have won dis
tinction as a leader in Hawaiian poll
tics. He was already trusted coun-
selor in party affairs.

A RlISCRIPT.

The following rescript was handed
down, yesterday. by Justice White
house in the case Of Fred j. Dunnig VS.
Massachusetts Mutual Accident Asso-
citation:
SagadahOc County.
Fred J. Dunning vs. Massachusetts
Mutual Accident Association. Re
script by Whitehouse. j.
This is an action of debt on a policy
of Insurance against accident and dis
ease. in which the plaintiff seeks to re
cover the sum of Sos, being an indem-
nifty of $12 per week for nine weeks, on
account of a disa oility resulting from
ilitis.
1t is not in controversy that the
plaintiff suffered from iritis, or inf!a-
nation of the membrane Of the eye
called the iris, but it is contended in
behalf of the company that his illness;
was not such as to be comprised in the
terms Of the policy giving an indem-
nifty for loss arising from disease.
The conditions of the policy respect
ing the indemnity for sickness are
as follows. viz: "A disability resulting
from sickness or disease in order to
constitute claim, must be continuous,
complete and total. requiring absolute
and necessary confinement to the house.
Except as provided under Benefit No.
15). and unless the. period of total dis
ability under the health provisions
shall continue for four or more weeks.
no claim. shall be allowed for the liist
seven days disability, and the sickness
or disease shall be such as shall, indie
pendently of all other causes, contin-
uously and wholly disable and prevent
the insured from attending to any bus
incss or duties pertaining to his occu
patton, profession or other remunera-
tive employment"
1t is contended in behalf of the dc
fence that absolute and necessary
confinement to the house" is made by
the contract an Indispensable criterion
of the disability which will entitle the
insured to the indemnity, and hence a
condition precedent to the right of re
covcry in the action.
The plaintiff does not claim that his
disability WIS such as to require ABB
solutc and necessary confinement to the
house. or that he was in fact confined
10 the house continually during the
or during the first seven days or any
other seven consecutive days of his i'll
ness. But it is contended in his behalf
that his aftliction was such as to dis
able and prevent him, continually and
wholly. from attending to any business
or duties pertaining to his Oc-
