IN RECEIVERS HANDS.
Upon the application of J. G. Serrao.
one of the partners, the firm of A, NJ.
Cabrinhas & Co. was placed in the
hands of a receiver on Saturday last.
The firm was originally composed of
~. G. Serrao and John lvierra The lat
ter withdrew sometime ago and Will
liam Fernandes bought his interest,
continuing until he engaged in con-
tracing with relative. Anton Ca
brinhas, an employee of the Hilo Mer-
camille Co., took his interest and con-
tinued the business with Mr. Serrao as
partner under the name of A. NJ.
Cabrinhas & Co. OF late there has
been some dissatisfaction and from
an advertisement which appeared in
this paper last week Mr.. Fernandes
has resumed his interest in the busi-
ness. but retained Cabrinhas as man
ager.
This advertisement eliminated in
the court being appealed to to dissolve
the partnership and Judge Parsons ap-
pointed A. Hamburg receiver to esti-
mate the value of the respective
shares. There was no objection to this
plan on the part of either partner; in
fact, they were willing to refer the
matter to Mr.. Hamburg without going
to court, but he preferred to take the
safest way. The assets of the firm are,
placed at between sixteen and sevenS
teen thousand dollars, but how much of
this is good has not yet been deter
mined. The liabilities will amount to
nearly twenty-four thousand dollars.
CRATER VERY ACTIVE.
On Sunday night more fire and lava
and general activity was noticed in Ha-
lemaumau than at any time during the
eruption this year. A large cone has
formed in the center and lava and
boulders were thrown a hundred feet
into the air. The roar and pyrotechnic
display Is awe-inspiring. The bright
glow is very distinct from the Vol
cano House veranda. II the present
activity continues in its present in
tensity, Halemaumau will soon be
overlooking into the main floor of XII
lauea as in 1892 and 1893.
