4 RECORD
LAND SALE
Parker's Ranch Brings
Six Hundred
Thousand.

L annie T. K. Parker is now the sole
fsowner of the Parker Ranch, a property
worth over a million dollars. Yester-
day the deed conveying the interest O
| Samuel Parker to the young heiress
through the medium of her guardian
was entered for record in the office OF
tthe@Registrar of Conveyances.
The consideration, representing tthe
equality of exchange" is six hundred
homestead and other small properties
in the original estate being conveyed
bv the same instrument to Samuel
Parker.
Yesterday was a day of record
smashing up at the judiciary build
ing. Elsewhere it will be seen that the
largest claim for marine salvage ever
made here was filed. Upon the same
floor of the building as that where this
happened, the largest stamp duty ever
appearing on any conveyance in these
islands was paid on the Parker deed.
This was three thousand dollars. 1t
was attached In the form of sixty
stamps of $50 each. The first sheet
of the instrument might have been
mistaken. at a short distance, for a
leaf from one of Crocker's stamp al
buns.
1t will be remembered how, in the
period covering one to three years ago.
a minor were figuring in one of the
most complicated and multifariously
phased legal contests ever figuring in
the Hawaiian courts. Several terms of
the First Circuit Court, Honolulu, were
virtually spoiled for other civil busi-
ress. even the criminal side being
prejudicially affected, while the Parker
Ranch litigation was active. The Third
Circuit Court. Kailua, was also involved
and sometimes at cross jurisdictional
purposes with the Honolulu court. 1t
would be too long a tale to recount ali
the bills and cross bills, fights on side |
issues, menaceS of physical struggles
for possession of the ranch headquar-
,trs, etc. Enough TO say that. following
L goodly volume of interlocutory and
inaI decisions of questions in the con-
.rcversy at large, the whole contest
ended peacefully in a partition suit
>rought IN the Third Circuit Court,
v hich paved the way for a purchase

he main interest of her grandfather,
samuel Parker.

MONGOLIA SAILS
FOR HONOLULU
Worked Herself Off Midway Reef Yesterday
Leaking in Three Holds but Pumps
Able to Handle Water.

The S. s. Mongolia. with deep water
once again beneath her, is on her way
to Honolulu having sailed FROM Mid
way last night at eight o'clock. Such
was the gratifying news received last
night.
Yesterday morning private messages
from Midway were received telling OF
the release of the liner from her peril

there was a general congratulatory air
among the business men and others that
the second Pacific Mail liner to come
to grief should so soon be off the rocks
and able to resume her passage.
In the messages from Midway SO far
received since the liner worked herself
loose, there have been no references
to the passengers landed on the is
land, and it is not yet known whether
they were again taken on board.
The Mongolia owes ner rescue to her

No assistance mad been rendered her /
by the Japanese training ship Ane-

return day of the citation is Friday
next.
j. D. Gaines, superintendent of the
Commercial Pacific Gable Co. signs
the jurat to the libel on behalf of the
company, whose attorneys are Balloi
& Marx.
AS the services on which the claim is
based the libel states that the Re-
storer stood by the Manchuria, stranded
on the reef at Waimanalo, from Au-
gust 20 to September 16. During that
time the cable steamer was hauling
with her lines on the Manchuria under
the direction of the persons in charge
of the stranded steamship.
Mention is made of great risk to
which the Restorer was exposed, of
herself going upon the reef, all the
time mentioned.
Finally. the Restorer's success in
pulling the Manchuria off the reef and
towing her to Honolulu is set forth.
The libel places the value of the
Manchuria at two million dollars, and
that of her cargo, freight money and
treasure at five hundred thousand dol
lars. a total of $2,5oO,00o.
This suit of the Commercial Pacific
Cable Co. against the P. NJ S. S. Man
churia presents, out of sight, the
largest claim for salvage ever made in
any court of the Hawaiian Islands.

ASKS REMOVAL OF

petitioned the Board of SupervisoTs
yesterday TO repeal that section Of tae
building ordinance which restricts the
height of class A buildings to one a4d
a half times the width OF the street
upon which the buildings front The
petition says:
II is a matter of common knowledge
that the high buildings Of class A con-
struction withstood the disaster OF last
April better than any other class Of
buildings. If buildings are restricted
to one and half times the width OF
the street the modern tendency OF busi-
ness and financial concentration Will
be artfdcially prevented The erection
of high buildings in modern America
Is brought about by the tact that the
land upon which they stand Is SO val
liable that in order that IL u1ay pro-
duce a fair income to its owner build
Ing of the class A type are erected
The investment In this high type OF
architecture for low building would
be losing one. and the result OF the
continuation Of this restriction must
be to restrict the business heart OF San
