BROKERS WHO GET
TWO COMMISSIONS

IF brokers would cOufne themselves
more to Exchange hours for buying and
selling stocks and thereby take but one
commission for their labor, the market
might be the better for it" said a pro-
nninent lawyer yesterday AS it is
between board sales gives the broker
the chance to get a commission out of
the man who wants to sell, and a COM
mission from the man who buys. On
the Exchange he gets but one commits

NEGLECT ALWAYS DANGEROUS.
To the average man it seem childish to
doctor a cold, and unless it becomes
particularly annoying to him, little or
no attention is given it. Often a cold
contracted in the winter is allowed to
run until the opening of spring. This
is a grave mistake, as even enough
the warm weather may bring relief,
the system is thereby weakened and
rendered susceptible to disease. A cold
should never be neglected, whether it
be child or an adult who is afflicted,
as health and often life is risked. A
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.

the old mill of the Hawaiian Fruit and
Taro CO. will be sold at auction by
James L. Coke, auctioneer, and this
marks the end of an old landmark f
Waikiki, and a little industry for
which Waikiki has gained some re-
nown. For a considerable time, paili
was manufactured at this mill and
sent to the Ieper settlement. Later the
contract was lost and the mill was at
a standstil for a considerable time.
Last year Y. W. Hebron had the ma
chinery put in shape for the manufac
ture Of taro flour, out of which the
famous babies food "Taroena" is man
ufactured. quite a lot of this taro
flour was manufactured and shipped t.

Co. at which place the Taroena was
put up.

HIS AUTHORITY QUESTIONED.
Judge Gilbert Names Trial Judge for
Oregon Land Fraud Cases.

Washington, June 3-The designa-
ton by Judge William b. Gilbert of the
Ninth circuit of judge John de Haven
of the Northern district of California
as presiding Judge In the trial of the
land fraud cases in OTeeon has led TO
some embarrassment amcng officials
here. The recent death of Judge Bel
linger, who was to have tried these
cases, caused vacancy in the Oregon
district 1t practically had been de-
termined by the president and the at
torney general that Judge Hunt, Unit
ed States judge for the district of Mon
tana, should be designated to succeed
Judge Bellinger in the trials and that
the appointment of JnGee Bellingers
successor should not be made imme-
diately AT this point JGlge Gilbert,
exercising authority siiah he supposed
he had directed that Judge de Haven
should try the cases. This was dis
pleasing to officials of the department
of justice and a telegram was sent to
Judge Gilbert by Attorney General
Moody inquiring by what authority he
had directed Judge de Haven TO act in
the trials. Thus far no reply has been
received to that telegram. What the
result of the situation will be Is uncer-
tain and whether the action of Judge
Gilbert will be overruled may depend
upon the reply he makes to the attor-
ney generals inquiry.

WOUNDED THROWN OVERHEARD.
Their Cries Had Bad Effect on Saliors
of the Orei.

Toxic, June 3.-It is planned to
bring the baetleship Orel to Yokosuka.
where the emperor will visit her.
A remarkable story Is in circulation
concerning the wounded on the Orel.
1t is said that at the opening OF the
fight 800 men were killed and wound
ed and that the groans and shrieks OF
the wounded exercised SO harmful an
effect that it was decided to throw the
Mortally wounded into the sea. One
hundred and forty, 1t is said, were
thrown overheard. Those slightly
wounded were then fastened to the
masts to prevent their interference
with the fighting of the ship.
1t is impossible to obtain any con-
firmation of this story. but later re-
ports indicate that the crew of the
Orel fought with desperate bravery
throughout the day previous to their
surrender The hull >f the vessel is
shell marked and many of her guns
are smashed and dismounted.

TO DECIDE ON PEACE OR WAR
GAR TO FOLLOW ANCIENT IRA
DiTioNS AND SUMMON A
zEMskY soBoR.

st. Petersburg, June 3.--Although
official confirmation Is lacking the As
sociated Press again hears on very
high authority that Emperor Nicholas
has resolved to follow the ancient ira
ditions of the house of Romanoff and
summon zemsky sober to meet In the
ancient capital of Moscow to decide on
peace or war and determine the form
and prerogatives Of the future Russian
parliament
were steady. the effect of the Russian
defeat In the Sea of Japan being off,
set by persistent reports OF political
changes.
The diplomats agree that Russia
must decide whether the peace nego-
tiations shall begin. The idea that
there Is any concerted movement
among the powers to force mediation
upon the belligerents is rejected. The
United States Is mentioned as the
only power which might possibly un-
dertake such delicate role. but Presi-
dent Roosevelts attitude against TAX
ing any action except at the request OF
Russia is well known. The suggestion
comes from Paris. however, that Presi-
dent Roosevelt might be induced to
act upon the initiative of Foreign Min
lister Delcasse. France, while strongly
urging Russia to make peace. Is In no
position to initiate direct action.
Attempts during the afternoon to
secure confirmation In court circles of
the report that the emperor had de-
cided to summon zemsky sober met
with the positive assertion that def
mite decision had not been reached.
