The Year In
The Stock
Market
VERY FEW CHANGES DURING
THE YEAR-MINING STOCKS
FOR THE FIRST TIME.

The year of 1906, ending at midnight
tonight, in the stock market has been
marked by very slight fluctuations all
stock continuing along on an even
basis. There has been no hurries
caused either by rapid declines or ad-
vancements. The year has been fair
ly good one with the local brokers
and none of them having complaints to
offer. Business on the average has
been steady with no striking ctivity or
dullness.
Mining stocks during the year have
been introduced in Honolulu and re-
ports of number of men making big
money have been heard. There is still
considerable of a market here for such
stocks, and there has been some talk
of establishing an exchange for such
stocks.
The principal changes in local stocks
have been in the Hawaiian Agricul-
tural, Wailuku Scrip, Oahu and EVA.
The change in Hawaiian Agricultural
was due to the ravages of the leaf
hopper which caused their stock to
decline to about 800. It has now
advanced to $135. Wailuku Scrip which
about the first of the year had $25 a
share paid in is sold at about $25 pre-
MUM today. The last assessment paid
being the end of the payments, this
stock now being fully paid-up and
firmly bid at $500 a share on an ad.
vance of SIS.
Oahu on December 81 Of last year on
account of a crop estimate of 22,500 tons
declined to $S7. so a share. On account
of the crop actually running 4,5Oe tons
more than was estimated brought the
price of the stocks up. Also the an
nouncement that beginning with this
year the company would pay a dlvi-
dend Of per cent this stock is now bid
for $115. Eva was selling at $2750 at
the first of the year and is now at
$25 80.
The Honolulu Rapid Transit & Land
Company common stock is 10 points
lower on account of a decrease in earn
ings early in the year, and conse-
quently a reduction in the dividend Of
1 per cent.
The quotations of the Stock Ex-
change today have more than their
usual import on account of the fact
that the Tax Assessor uses these quo
tations In part to make up his valua-
tions for tax purposes.

CAMPBELL PRODDING
UP THE CORPORATE IONS
NEARLY $4,000 IN FEES IN SIGHT
AND THE TREASURER WANTS
THE MONEY PAID IN.

No less than 24O corporations
throughout the Territory have failed
TO file their annual exhibits with the
Territorial Treasurer. Inasmuch as
the aggregate of fees for such applica-
tions is s4SOO, Treasurer Campbell is
desirous of having the deTnquents send
along their exhibits.
Notice was sent out to all of the
corporations some time ago directing
then to file their exhibits by December
20. Only 153 complied. A second cir
cular letter was issued by the Treasur-
er calling on the delinquent corpora
tions to file the exhibits by December
81. But it is likely that there will be
a large number that will not make re-
ply until after the new gear starts.
The fee for filing such exhibit is $40.

GUARDING AGAINST
OUTBREAK OE CONVICTS
RECEIVED FORMATION
HAS THREATENED
ATTEMPT EsCAPE-IENRY CHANGED
SEQUENCE

Roger James, alias Leonard Wilmore,
who is regarded as one of the most
desperate convicts at. the penitentiary,
is causing considerable apprehension to
High Sheriff Henry and Warden Burke.
In fact James has made threats against
Prison Guard Billy Woods and has
threatened that he would attempt to
escape at the first opportunity. So
serious are his threats regarded by the
prison authorities that a change in
the nature of the guards at the peni-
tentiary has been in consequence of
the threats. The most reliable guards
have been put on duty over the par
ticular part of the prison where James
is confined after he returns from work,
and the guards over the Mal1ik quarry
gang have been cautioned to keep a
careful watch over the convict while he
is out at work.
James is serving a longl sentence for
highway robbery. He was\ captured
by Chester Doyle after causing a reign
of terror throughout the community
some years ago. James claims to be
under sentence of life imprisonment as
a deserting American soldier in the
Philippines and to have escaped in
sensational manner from Alcatraz
Prison. His story of his life including
his sensational career of murder in
the Philippines, was recently published
in the Wide World Magazine.
The following affidavit from a former
prisoner at the Jail. relative to James,
was made this morning before John
Kea a notary public:
My full name is Charles Santos.

In the face of a strong protest on be-
half Of thirty residents of Waianae, the
sale of the remnants of land in the Waia-
nae-kai district was made at noon today
by Land Commissioner Pratt The land
which consisted of 331 acres Of cane land
and 491.35 acres of sandy, coral land was
bid in for $G9,570 by J. NJ. Dowsett for
the Waianae Plantation. There was on
ly one bid offered. The upset price was
placed at S69,656.T5. Previous to the
sale of Judge George d. Gear represent
ing Chris Holt and twenty-nine other
residents of Waianae, filed a verbal pro-
test against the sale The protest was
received by Pratt who then made the
sale.
The disposal of the land in Waianae-
kai, has caused a great deal of interest
1t was announced some days ago that
an injunction to prevent the sale would
be secured but the injunction did not
materialize. Steps were taken this morn
ing however to secure such means of post
poning the sale. Chris Holt representing
himself and twenty-nine other residents
Of Waianae filed a written protest at

after serving a sentence Of eleven

my leaving the jail, Roger James, q
convict confined in oahu Pniteltiary
under a term of serviture of fifteen
years for robbery wanted tJ hand me
a letter to deliver to the EditoE of the
Bulletin which refused to do; knew
part of the contents of the letter, and,
the contents of the letter L knew to be
false, and not true He also made a
statement that he would like to make
an assault on officer Wood, at his first
opportunity and he further said he
would try and make his escape the
first chance he got.
For myself, 1 would like to say that
each and every one of the inmates in
the Oahu Penitentiary is receiving the
best the chief warden could give. We
get all we want to eat an6 plenty of
it. / have always been treated very
well. Always allowed to see my rela-
tives when they called in there to see
me, of course the time for such visits
are limited, but, it is quite sufficient"
High Sheriff Henry says that James
is responsible for the charges that were
made in the Bulletin in 2 letter over
the signature of Philip Naone, about
the treatment of prisoners at the Jail.
Naone never signed the letter it is
stated, and James desired to get Naone
into trouble because the latter was
given the position inside of the Jail
that James formerly held until re-
duced to the prison gang.
James has very peculiar affection.

Dear Sir: Your open letter In yes

into existence.
In answer 1 beg to say that it af-
fords me great pleasure to satisfy your
request for either purpose.
You cannot be unacquainted with the
fact, that the Church Of England is
meant when there is question Of "the
established church" that is the church
established by law" or by the English
Parliament This was officially done
in 1884 when King Henry VIII was
declared the supreme head of Il !
church of his realm. When the love-
sick King of England could not obtain
in Rome the divorce he coveted from
his virtuous wife, Catherine of ARA
gone, one of his courtiers. Thomas
Cromwell, suggested him a radical
remedy for all his troubles He Should
follow the example Of the German
princes of that time who broke away
from Rome. This idea pleased Henry
very much and since 1881 he works al
it's realization. He would enjoy this
way besides the civil authority also
the authority and the privileges held
by the Pope.
All he had to do was to make a law
to that effect. Matters were ripe for
this end in 1884. The bill abolishing

so that the large crowds can be at

celebration which will be the most
unique Of the kind ever held here. The
members of the carnival committee
have not determined positively upon
this matter however.
"Our reasons for postponing the cele-

city to retain Judge Gear to institute the
injunction proceedings. But he failed
to arrive early enough to give Gear time
in which to bring suit. The result was
that the sale had to be allowed to be
carried through without any interference,
other than the formal verbal objection

He must be man OF infinite tact and

wheat from the chaff.
He hears more secrets than con-
fessor, concerning which he must be
as dumb as an oyster and as chari-
table as Saint Peter. He must hold
the balance true between all the d.
verse and conflicting interests which
strive for ACKNOWLEDGMENT in every
community, and keep his hands as
spotless as the ermine of judge. He
must constantly return good for evil
and do countless favors for others.
He must consider everybody else first
and himself last, and above all he
must be an optimist and boom his
community in season and cut of sea-
