NEW YORK, February 10.--To-day's
dull stock market was of the same char
acter as those throughout the week.
Ecsuatine; speculative sentiment and dis
,nclinat,cn to make large Commitments
were the marked features. The excited
advances of yesterday In the Hill Rail-
roads gave place to some reaction to-day
and prices fell back from the lack OF
the stimulating influence of the strength
in these stocks. The narrow professional
character OF the market was demon-
stratedi by the demand to cover shorts
after the appearance of the poor bank
statement. which disclosed the origin Of
the early selling OF bear operators. De-
yelopments In the banking situation In
dcate substantial ground for the con-
servative spirit felt In the stock market.
The days report or the proposed $2O,-
O00oo bond issue by the Southern Rail
way Company and of the p,irchase by
bankers of large block of American
telephone bonds are significant of a ten
dtncyi which has become a marked
feature of the financial situation. The
expansion of enterprise has resulted In
an enormous increase in the needs for
capital and the high level Of prices for
securities offers attractive opportunity
for their floatation. The recent heavy
Issues OF bonds and stocks are e;xpectcd,
therefore. to be largely supplemented

A JURY'S RECOMMENDATIONS. OF
MERCY Is DISREGARDED IN
THE CASE OF PAHAU.

In spite of the jurys recommended
ton to mercy Judge Lindsay this
morning gave the maximum punish
ment to Pahau, an aged Hawaiian
found guilty yesterday afternoon of a
criminal assault on girl eleven years
OF age. The maximum provided by
the statute is IS months hard labor
and Judge Lindsay appeared to regret
that he could not impose more. He
explained to the defendant that it was
lucky for him that the girl was not
one year younger, in which case the
law provides for a penalty of death.
Pahau is 70 years of age, according
to his statement to the court. The
jury's verdict contained rider recon-
mending mercy on account of the Tex
treme old age, of the the defendant.
Judge Lindsay said that while as
rule he thought it proper to regard a
jury's recommendation to mercy, in the
present case, where the law provides
such a small penalty, he could not do
so. The judge seemed to regard the
Is months maximum as a very small
one for such an ofense.
Pahau is one of the Oldest men, il
not the Oldest, that ever began hard
labor term in jail here. He is, however
fairly strong and will probably outlast
his term, it is thought, The following
jurors heard the case: J. W. Mcdonald

PORTO RICAN Is ARRESTED

taken into custody on suspicion of be-
ing the man who had stabbed the Jap
anese nurse at the japanese hospital
and the japanese lodger at the hotel
corner of Smith and Pauahi streets yes
terday morning. The suspected man
was taken before the two wounded peo-
pie at the hospital but neither identified
him as being their assailant
Finally Japanese Detective Mkt took
the rogues gallery of the police station
and displaying two pages of pictures
Of criminals, inquired if the stabber
was among the number There were
fully so photographs of criminals but
after perusal of the pictures, both
of the Japanese promptly identified
Colon as the man who had stabbed
them.
The conduct of Colon yesterday after
noon led the police to the belief that
he had good reason for desiring to keep
his freedom. Word was received at
the police station that a Porto Rican
answering the description of the stabber
had been seen to pass the fire station
house, going toward Punchbowl.
Mounted officer Lynch was hurried
after the man. He found him to be

The county ordinance against keep
ing gambling apparatus of any sort
behind doors which are barred or bar
ricaded was shown to be dead letter
in Judge Lindsays court this morning,
when the cases of A Chinese held under
the ordinance We're nolle pressed. This
was on account of the Supreme Courts
decision in recent county case, to the
effect that the supervisors are with
out jurisdiction to provide for i'm
prisonment for violation of any of their
ordinances.
The cases were those of Tai Kung
and 4S others, who were found guilty
in the district court and sentenced to
pay fine of IS each. They were found

purpose of putting him under arrest.
Colon sprang to his feet and drew a
knife on the officer The latter stepped
back and the Porto Rican disappeared
in the lantana.
Early this morning about o'clock
one of the police officers saw Colon
in the vicinity of the Kalihi fire station
heading in the direction of Eva The
officer id not know that Colon was
wanted by the authorities so made no
attempt to place him under arrest. As
soon as this news was learned Assist
ant Sheriff Henry Vida and a number
of officers among them Frank Kanae
were dispatched toward Eva to search
for the Porto Rican. 1t was thought
that the man was heading for Eva or
some plantation in order to secure
temporary work and disappear until
after the stabbing had quieted down.
Kanae made a number of inquiries
from various Japanese and other places
if a Porto Rican had passed finally
reached a Chinese coffee shop where
the proprietor said that Porto Rican
answering the description of Colon had
left but a short time before. Kanae
hurried away and meeting with a Chi
nese riding on a wagon, mounted the
rig and forced the Chinese to hurry up
with the wagon in order to overtake
Colon.

TO SELL
CAPITOL
MAGAZINE
SMALL HISTORIC STRUCTURE ON
THE CAPITOL GROUNDS TO BE
REMOVED.

superintendent Holloway is Offering
for sale tomorrow the old magazine
which stands on the Capitol grounds,
mauka of the Capitol, also the carpen-
ter shop near the mauka fence. The
magazine is small brick building,
with a pit ten feet deep inside. The
building has played quite a part in
local military history, as the storehouse
.Of ammunition. 1t is at present used
as a storehouse for National Guard
ammunition.
The magazine is building of brick.
1t was the government magazine dur
ing the days of rebellions and as such
was a highly important little structure.
It is to be sold for removal, and is
probably only worth what its brick is
worth. As soon as it has been remoy-
ed, Holloway will have the pit filled up
and grass planted on the site. The
carpenter shop is also to be removed
and the site planted with grass.
Still another building near by, used
by the federal government as a store
house, is to be removed If permission
can be secured from Washington TO
place it on the drill SHED lot At the
request Of Holloway the governor has
written to Washington asking for per-
mission to remove the building from
the Capitol grounds to the other lot.
The removal of the three buildings is
wanted by way of improving the ap-
pearance Of the grounds, None of them
is at all slightly, and their removal
