iron MoIders' Scale.

The controversy between the Iron Mold
ers' Union and the local employers, which
has been settled temporarily, has been
referred to the officials Of the National
Foundrymens Association and the Ma
tional Molders' Union for adjustment.
While it is hoped on all sides that a
permanent agreement will be arrived at,
such an outcome is by no means certain,
and it is not unlikely that, in the event of
failure to agree the strike which was In
augurated last month may be renewed.
The men say the employers want the
union to waive certain rights with refer
ence to handy men and floor men which
the union cannot comply with. A decision
is expected about the first Of next month.

prominent factors the unusually rapid
absorption of stocks and the relief af-
forded by the diversion of non-privi-
legged sugars to other markets, under
the practical workings of the Cuban
Reciprocity Treaty. On the other hand,
as the season advances, the tendency
now observable of an approach to par
ity of the principal markets of the
world, namely, European beets Cubas
and Javas, brings into greater prom
inence the question of a possible dim
mutton of beet sowings and increased
consumption abroad. Reports are con-
Trajectory as to the former, some au-
thorities considering that Mr.. LIGHTS
estimate of TX per cent reduction
throughout Europe is rather premature.
Mr.. LIGHTS figures are as follows:
Austria and Germany, $1,000 hectares
less equal to 2 per cent; France, $4,000
hectares less euqal to 10 per cent; Bel
GUM, 1000 hectares less equal to II
per cent; Holland. 5000 hectares less
equal to 12h per cent; Sweden, 5000
hectares less equal to 20 per cent Rus
STA, $1,000 hectares less equal to u per
cent; other countries, 1900 hectares
less equal to e. per cent; total Europe,
$4,000 hectares less equal to 71a per
cent.
In the light of past experience, it is
but natural that implicit faith is not
placed on a total reduction of ~ per
cent Increased consumption seems to
be the best ground for an anticipated
improvement in the distant future. 1t
is quite certain that consumption since
October shows considerable increase,
especially in Europe, and the worlds
increased consumption may reach 500,
900 tons for the year. If to this we
add a probable decrease in sOwings of
8, 100000 tons, the prospective figures for
October, 1905 would encourage a hope
of higher prices. European markets
have continued strong, but in this con-
nection it is we'll to bear in mind that
the comparatively high prices ruling for
new crop beets may stimulate sowings.
Reports from Europe indicate that Mr..
LIGHT has reduced his estimate of the
beet crop $4,000 tons, which would make
a total of 5,S3O,OOO tons sugar for all
Europe.
Javas, as we'll as beets, have advanc-
ed and keep a little ahead of Cubas.
The fact that freights are ruling higher
is given as part explanation of the ad-
vance.

EXCURSION FOR
THE EXPOSITION

Secretary e. NJ. Boyd of the Hawaii
Promotion Committee is in receipt to-
day of a letter from the California
State Board of Trade announcing that
the California Board Of Trade is ar
ranging for an excursion to the Loui-
siana Purchase Exposition at st. Louis.
The party will be composed of prom
inent merchants, manufacturers and
producers of California state. The
round trip tickets, first class, will cost
$67. so each. These tickets are good for
80 days and permit of stOpover privi-
leges. Passengers can select the return
route by any of the direct lines they
desire. If they wish to return via Port
land, it will cost $13 additional.
The letter says in part: I'VE will APP
preciate it if you will be kind enough to
promugate this information to your
members and to the members OF the
Chamber of Commerce and the Mer-
chants Association. In order for us to
make the proper reservations for sleep
ing car accommodations, those of your
citizens who intend taking advantage
of this opportunity to join what will
probably be one of the finest excursions
that has ever left this State, should
write us at the earliest moment, letting
us know just what accommodations
they will desire and should send us
money for same if they simply wish
one berth, sending $500, if a section
$96.OO etc.
The purpose Of sending the letter to
Mr.. Boyd is to try and induce from 10
to 20 representative Hawaiians to join
the excursion party. The excursion
will leave San Francisco about the mid
die of May The date has not been
determined as yet.

The Kona litigation has led to charg-
es against Second District Magistrate
Aiu, of Kona which have been filed with
the Attorney General and are referred
to in part in an affidavit filed in Judge
De Bolts court this morning by Guy
f. Maydwen, attorney for c. j. Hut
chins, trustee. Amdavits were also
filed against and in support Of the
motion of w. w. Berce for an execu-
ton against Hutchins, by E. B. Nc
Clanahan, j. f. Colburn, and Hutchins.
The latter declaims that he is able
financially to handle the plantation and
he made arrangements to reorganize it
and have it running again within ten
days. Judge De Bolt granted the mo-
ton for an execution to issue unless
Hutchins files new bond, allowing
him until next Friday to do So the
bond to be for twice the sum of $22, 900
for which judgment was issued, in re-
rlevin for the Kona railway.
The charges against Aiu are in con-
nection with the writ Of possession
which was served on Sunday trip of
the Ike Au Hou to Kona by Deputy
Sheriff ChillnEworth two weeks ago.
1t was writ of possession issued by
Aiu, when an appeal was pending on
matters involved in the contest over
Kona LEASES and the railway The
affidavit of Guy F. Maydwell contains
the following:
Notwithstanding said appeal said
District Magistrate, one Thomas Aiu
at the instance of the manager of the

in fraud of the tights of the defendant
issued writ of possession and said
Kapiclani estate was on March %, 1901
put in possession Of said mill propert!
AMI the defendant ousted therefrom."
Maydwell says the writ was ISSUED
sureptitiously and fraudulently with.
out the knowledge Of defendant or his
attorneys and that said magistrate was
misled and deceived into issuing tn,
service" He declares that the writ /!
void and that a motion to recall it anC
set it aside is now pending and, h,

believes, will be granted. The Ka-
piolani estate brought the action for
the purpose of harassing and annoying
defendant, says the affidavit, and con-
trary to custom brought it before Aiu,
second magistrate, instead of George
Clark, first magistrate FOR the reason
as affiant believes, because said second
magistrate is a man of no legal learn
ing or experience and is easily de-
CCived and imposed upon, and that he
was so deceived and imposed upon and
induced ana influenced to render judg-
ment contrary to the law and the evil
dence and thereafter to do the wrong
and unlawful acts hereinbefore set
forth"
Hutchns denies McClanahan's state
ments that Hutchins cannot look after
the property involved in the suit and
IN his affidavit has the following re-
garding the plantation:
HE has practically completed re-
organization and that within ten days
as atfiant believes the said plantation
will be in operation and its matters and
affairs so arranged that a sugar plan
tation will be continued upon the pro-
perties formerly constituting the said
Kona Sugar Company Plantation.
"Affiant says that he is amply able
financially to provide for the care OF
all the properties in controversy
in this action ard that he will so care
for the same so that the deterioration
will not be appreciable; that it is tc
the interest of affiant to provide fol
the care of such property and that the
same will suffer no loss by reason OF
damage or deterioration"
Judge De Bolts order requiring {
bond of $4,000 from Hutchins is il
the case Of Bierce against Hutchins
replevin, for the recovery of the Koni
Railway or the value thereof, a judg
ment having been rendered for tn
railway for $22, 900. The Kapiolan
estates writ of possession was 70
lands and property which Hutchin
claims to have bought, as trustee 70
Kona stockholders, in the sale of tn
Kona Slrar Company.

Goes Naked , Eats Fruit

DARLING, A NATURE LIVING
CULT WALKS BARE LEGGED
THROUGH THE sTREETs-HOw HEALTHY

A very original character arrived to-
day from San Francisco on the s. S.
Alameda. He is known as the Ma
ture Man" He says he believes like
Joaquin Miller in getting down to ma
ture but the extent to which the Ma
ture Man carries his creed is beyond
the bounds of present day convention
ality and would cause the average per-
son to declare him a crank" r. w.
Darling is his name.
Darling believes in wearing not only
as few clothes as the law allows but
as the climate will permit. He fur
thermore savors a strict diet of nuts
and fruits where they can be secured.
Cooked food and meats he eliminates so
far as possible, although he does not
permit his belief to carry him to the
point Of starving when he can not Sc
cure the articles prescribed by his
creed. He win eat meat and he did
so on the Alameda when he cannot
secure the fruits and nuts that he con-
siders are healthful.
II have come to the Hawaiian ISL
ands,' he said this morning, "for the
purpose of experimenting with the
fruits and nuts of these islands. l am
