STOCK MARKET

THERE WAS ONLY A LIGHT
AMOUNT OF TRADING DURING
THE DAY BUT PRICES FIRM.

The stock market this afternoon
showed about the same prices as the
morning market did, if anything there
was a little stiffening. There was
small block of Rapid Transit Preferred
sold shade above par. A thousand
dollar Hawaiian Sugar bond was sold
at 1O2. There was some McBryde sold
at $1O.75 which shows an upward ten

Rapid Transit Preferred $10O.5O;
$1,000 Hawaiian Sugar bond, 1902; 10
McBryde, $40 rs; 10 McBryde $1O.75.

ever in the morning market. Kihei sold
at $14.75. McBryde sold at $40. IS. Fifty
shares of Hawaiian commercial were
sold at $95 buyer 30 days. Waialua sold

A new system of keeping the per-
sonal records and photographs Of the
prisoners at Oahu Jail is being inau-
gurated. For years and years it has
been the practice to take and keep
photographs of every person sentenced
to Imprisonment within the walls of
this old building which dates from
1857. But until very recently there
has been very little order in the way
in which they were kept There are
hundreds of photographers which have
no mark of Identification except the
number of the convuct. Later a slight
ly better procedure was adopted by
adding the name to the number on each
photograph in the big albums in which
these pictures were kept and which
constitute the rOgues gallery.
But even this was of little service
when it was desired to find out If any
given individual who might have been
arrested somewhere in the territory
ad ever been sentenced to oahu Prison
A big pile of albums, each with a dozen
or so photographs on each page had to
be looked through. And If the photo

MORE CHINESE
FOR GERMAN SAMOA
A SECOND IMPORTATION OF SIX
HUNDRED Is TO BE BROUGHT
TO APIA SOON.

Two weeks ago a cable was received
stating that the Imperial German gov
ernment had given permission for the
introduction of Chinese laborers into
Samoa, 1t was pointed out in the Star
at the time that Chinese labOTers had
been introduced nearly two years be-
fore. The Samoanische Zeitung of
January q says:
Arrangements have now been COM
| pleted for the second shipment of Chi
nese coolies to Apia.
Altogether 800 are ordered, and the
cost per head landed in Apia will
amount to $50 Marks, exclusively of re-
turn transport.
| 1t is intended to set aside 100 Marks
per head for this purpose, although it
is most probable that this amount will
be more than sufficient for the purpose
Practically speaking therefore the
cost per head for coolies will be 45O
| Marks, which bears a very favorable
comparison with the earlier ship
! ment.
As regards the return transport it
may be possible that the Bird or 4th inn
pOrtations (Which our planting pros
poets surely will warrant later on) will
afford an opportunity for returning the
earlier importations.

Governor Carter does not expect all
smooth sailing at the coming session of
the Legislature and he makes no bones
about saying so, but it is expressed
that if the House and Senate are to
divide, the line of cleavage will not be
one of racial prejudice.
Il do not anticipate that the coming
session will be as harmonious as the
last special session" said the Governor
this morning. THE conditions are en-
tirely different now. With the over
whelming majority of one party in both
House and Senate and the correspond
ing lack of a strong minority to act as
a check, there can be little doubt that
honest differences of opinion among the
members will cause a break on other
than party lines. My earnest hope is
that this will not take the form of a
break along racial lines. The Territory
could not afford to have such a division
under any circumstances.
Il am only an individual" continued
the Governor, but personally l would
much prefer to have the Legislature
split on administration and anti-ad-
ministration lines with natives and
whites on both sides. Naturally 1 would
suffer by such break, but that can be
borne much more easily than if the ra-

Sinister rumOrs are prevalent over
the Koloa post office shortage of $21,-
900 for wrich Postmaster Rego is now
under arrest. AS the Star indicated
last night, there are to be further ar
rests and just where the axe is going
to fall is bothering more than one per-
son.
How Rego could manage to escape
detection for over a year, if inded he
is the guilty party at all is what
amazes most of those who have look
ed into the case for the clumsiness of
the device of flying money order kites
between Koloa and Honolulu could
hardly have been exceeded, 1t was a
plan which could not hope to run the
gauntlet of a thorough inspection.
AS was the case after the exposures
made by Detective Halter stories are
now going the rounds as to the pre-
sence in Honolulu and other parts of

this Paradise of the Pacific may find
the baseless fabric of a dream if the
yarns about detectives spread much
more.
With the fixing of Rego's bail at
$4,000 when the alleged shortage is
over $27,0OO, it becomes obvious that
the authorities either do not regard
him as the criminal in chief or that
they expect to get some of the specie
back. Perhaps they figure on both
contingencies. That the negotiations
could not have been put through with
out cOnfederates appears plain and the
outcome of the situation will be watch
ed with keen interest.

cial question again became prominent"
Governor Carter stated further that
he had laid this personal view Of his
before two groups of native legislators
who had called on him yesterday ana
today.
While Governor Carter did not say
so, there can be little doubt that his
anxiety along the line that his commu-
nication would suggest has been caus-
ed i'm some measure by the stories OF
caucuses of native legislators to which
the white members have not been fn-
vited. Persons in a position to know
scout the idea that any such meetings
have been held, but the man on the
street, who knows everything, says thaN
the meetings have not only been held
but that the whole business of the ses-
sion has practically programmed with

House and President Of the Senate. OF
course if the street rumor should ba
correct there can be no doubt that with
its majority the native element in the
House can do as it pleases but there
will be wigs on the green before the
session is over should the division come
along the lines feared.

Jones Confession
Admitted In Trial
PROSECUTION SCORES A DECIDED FORMER
SHERIFF CHARLES F. CHILLINGwoRTH
ACCUSED DETAILED SHOOTING AND THE REASON
AWFUL

A big point was gained by the prose-
cution in the Jones murder case early
this afternoon by the ruling Of Judge
Robinson admitting as evidence the
confession alleged to have been made
to Deputy High Sheriff c. F. Chilling
worth in the presence Of others.
An objection was formally entered by
the defence but it was overruled and
an exception noted
Chillingworth told his story with
great care. He detailed how Jones
had been warned that anything that
he might say might be used against

him at his trial. The accused had
then gone over his actions on the night
of the tragedy and afterwards He
repeated many times that his wife
was his God and that he shot her be-
cause he loved her so much that he
could not see another man win her
from him. Jones had also made re-
peated references to the man who had
ruined his life, using a foul expression
to describe him. He also spoke of the
shooting of his mother in law Mrs
Parmenter saying that he had fired
several shots at her but did not know
whether he had killed her or not.

~ NE OF the eXtrava gances of the
day is the number of evening
coats which il is necessary for
a woman to have if she would
really be ultra-modish. She must have
almost as many evening cloaks as even
ing gowns-and the number of these is
legion.
We I'll remember the time when even
a fasiionably dressed woman did not
consider it necessary to have more than
one handsome evening wrap. and that
has been, in recent seasons, of white A

return of the black evening wrap and
the disappearance of the white one.

Exceedingly modish are black opera
cloaks covered with spangles. and black
velvet cloaks in brocaded figures of i'm
mense size and trimmed with fur col
lars and cuffs. White fur collars and
cuffs upon these elaborate black cloaks
are novelties as smart as they are strik-
