WILL STOP STOCK
SHORT SELLING

NEW YORK, Oct. "A bill is to be
introduced at Albany this winter, it is
learned, to put an end to short SELL
ing in the stock market.
This measure, which it is understood
will have the support of men inf1uen-
tial in various large corporations, will
make it obligatory upon a man selling
stock on the exchange to furnish to
the buyer when the transaction occurs
the numbers of his share certificates
and will thus prevent operators from
selling stock which they do not own.
By the enforcement of this new law
if enacted. it is hoped to do away with
unwarranted attacks on values and
with raids by spectators, pure and
simple. Regulations similar to those
sought to be instituted in the local
stock market are in force in Paris.

CANADA MAY DECIDE
TO ABROGATE TREATY

TORONTO, Sept. 20.-A Globe des-
ment have no desire to abrogate the
present treaty with Japan, giving I'M
restricted freedom of access to all Jap
anese subjects entering Canada unless
it is found that the present negotia-
tions prove abortive. The abrogation
of the treaty would forfeit the several
tariff considerations Canada now has
| from Japan, and would seriously mill
tate against the continuation of the
present rapid growth of Canadian
trade with that country, and any ces-
sation of the present favorable trade
relations with Japan would be felt most
seriously by British Columbia. How
ever, if it should become question of
choosing between a continuance of a
large Japanese influx of immigration
| into British Columbia and the abroga-
ton of the treaty, the government will
not hesitate to abrogate the treaty.
AS to the conditions under which the
treaty can be abrogated, there is pos
sibly some room for doubt. In the act
passed last year the Canadian parlia-
| ment agreed practically unanimously
that the provisions of Great Britain's'
treaty with Japan should also apply
to Canada. Under the conditions of
that treaty each power bound itself to
observe the agreement for at least
eleven years from the date of it's rati-
fication, namely, July, 1899. The treaty,
consequently, has three years to run.
In respect to the Canadian agreement,
however, a clause was added stating
that it should remain in force until
the expiration of six months from the
date on which one of the high con-
tracing parties shall have announced
the intention of terminating it,.
WINDSOR, Ont, Sept. 20.-Hon. r.
Sutherland, speaker of the House of
Commons, has just returned from the
Pacific coast. He says the feeling
against the Japanese and Chinese is
most intense in some quarters, and he
believes that the limiting of Asiatic
immigration is the only solution. He
heard no talk of annexation with the
United States.

a copy of a call for a mass meeting
of the people of the Settlement that
| the cynical might be disposed to think
foreordained the meeting to be a cut
and dried affair. He stated in his let
ter that the road down the pail was
so bad that he could not go into the

main in the Settlement until next Sat
urday.
The call for the mass meeting, which

been presented to the Board of Health.
To you the following suggestions are
preferred:
First. That John Haulani, Esq, Dis
trict Magistrate, preside at said meet
ing as chairman.
Second. That a competent secretary
be appointed.
Third. That ]. X Keliikule act as

PRIVATE SCHOOL
CERTIFICATES
Forty-Six Applications Granted
Out of Fifty Which Made
Application.

The reading of reports from the va.
rious private schools of the Territory
and the granting Of certificates to such
as were entitled in the mean
ing of the law to rank as pri-
vate schools took UP the whole time
practically, of the meeting of the
Board of Educati ton yesterday after
! noon. The number of such private
schools was rather a surprise to some
of the members of the board, the total
| of those applying for certificates
language in which instruction is given,
being an even fifty, while the very
large number of straight Japanese and
Chinese schools were not considered
Of those who applied, certificates were
granted to all but four, the list of
those approved being: Iolani College,
St. Louis College, Oahu College, Pu-
nahou Preparatory, Kawaiahao Semi
nary, Mills Institute, Grove Farm Gil

The four schools refused certificates
were those in which the English lar
guage was not used for the most of
the instruction. The Lahaina Chinese
School, whose curriculum included
Chinese philosophy, proverbs and Chit
nese music, used no English at all.
No English was used in the japanese
school on Nuuanu avenue, to which
certificate was also refused, while the
certificates of the MoiliiH japanese
School and the japanese school near
Puunene were held back for further
At the latter school Eng
lish and. japanese are equally used.
In granting the certificates to the
two schools at the Settlement, 6 spe-
cial exception was made, allowing Ha-
waiian to be used as much as was
found to be necessary.
The Japanese private school at Pu-
unene came in for a good deal of dis
cussion, Superintendent Babbitt stat
ing that a host of other japanese
schools were waiting to see what ac-
ton the board would take before send
ing in their applications.
The proposal of the Bulletin to put
I'D five prizes in cash to be competed
for among the various schools of the
Territory in manual work was accept
ed nv the board.

A few years ago this was one Of the
most fatal of the diseases of childhood,
and was frequently the cause of death
In adults as well, but to-day, thanks to
the discovery Of antitoxin, 1t has been
shorn of many of Its terrors, although
1t Is still disease to be dreaded. In
the early days from one-quarter to one
third of those attacked died, but now
the mortality has fallen to one In ten.
The first sign OF the disease Is usual
ly sore throat, although this symptom
may be preceded for short time by
slight fever, headache and general las
situde. The mucous membrane Of the
threat Is first reddish and swollen, or
II may be paler than usual, but In a
few hours, or sometimes day or two,
whitish specks appear on the tonsils or
the palate. These specks soon Increase
In extent, and form membrane cover
ing greater or lesser area.
The throat alone may be affected.
This constitutes the mildest FORM
Again, the inflammation with the for
nation of membrane may extend to
the nostrils or to the larynx. The parts
beneath the membrane are swollen,
sometimes enormously, and an abund-
ant discharge covers all the surface
Any of the mucous membranes of the
body may be affected, but the parts
mentioned are those which are most
commonly attacked.
At the same time with the formation
of membrane general symptoms occur,
showing that the poison absorbed into
the blood stream has caused serious
changes In the blood and nervous sys-
tenn. A special danger in diphtherla is
heart failure. The poison of the dis
ease seems to have a special affinity for
the heart
A common sequel OF diphtherla is a
temporary paralysis, involving first the
soft palate, Generally 1t goes no fur
Their, but 1t may attack the arms or
legs, or any of the muscles In the body.
The usual treatment OF diphtheria is
by the injection Of antitoxin. In addi-
ton to this, measures have to be taken
to prevent failure of the heart and to
keep up the general strength. When
the disease Involves the larynx. death
may threaten through choking, and in
this case It Is necessary to insert a tube
between the vocal cords to allow the
patient to breathe.-Youth's Oompan.

NATION OF SALT EATERS.

A Barrel a Year La Consumed for
Every Three Persons.
The United States consumes 2s.s72
700 barrels Of salt annually, or a bar
rel for every three persons in the
land. Last year 1t went abroad for
only 1,151 1873 barrels. In 1880 es.5
per cent Of the salt used in our coun-
try was Of home production. Last year
eo.7 per cent of the product consumed
was produced within the borders of
this country. In 1880 the consumption
In this country was only 9,sS4, 2es bar
rels. Thus we see that the people OF
the United States are using annually
three times as much salt as they used
twenty-six years ago.
Only 6,961 900 barrels. were pro-
duced In this country in 1880, and the
consumers were forced to 70 abroad
for 8,427 $50 barrels Last year the
total production at home was rs &c.,
122 barrels.
The chief salt-producing States are
Michigan and New York. Statistics
recently gathered by the government
show that the combined output of these
two States amounts to more than two
thirds Of the total production of the
United States.
No attempt has ever been made to
ascertain what per cent OF the salt
consumed In the United States Ii used
for culinary purposes. The annual
output Is consumed In the Industries OF
meat-packing, fish curing. dairying and
the like. The chlorination OF gold ores
demands large quantity. and great
quantities of salt In the form of brine
are used In the manufacture Of soda
ash, caustic soda and other salts Salt
Il cheap. The average price for 1905
was a little over % cents n barrel,
which Is lower than that reported In
any previous year. Dry salt, Of course,
brings a higher price than brine. The
average price for dry salt last yeaz
was 31.51 cents a barrel.

ways. Tie has sent several special
commissions across the water In order
that England might be improved by
reason of the advances made In Amer
lea. He has given added impetus to
the schools of England by sending many
teachers to the United States to OBJ
serve and learn. He himself has
studied this country from many points
of view, and studied it not from the
standpoint Of hostile critic but from
that of one who seeks to know In or
der to improve himself. For these rea-
sons the opinions of Mr.. Mosely are
entitled to great respect, and when he
ard of living Is real peril to Amer
lea it Is worth while to consider the
subject. This high living often ap-
proaches ruthless extravaganza, he
says, the luxuries Of yesterday being
counted the necessities Of to-day. re
action Is bound to come, and when 1t
does 1t will be attended by disaster.
No one can doubt that Americans, as
rule, live well. But they can afford to.
Some Of them are spending all they
make, some more than they make, but
others have accounts In the savings
banks to show that they are not I'M
mindful of the possible rainy day"
ahead Of them. There are some fea-
lures of present American social con-
ditions which are distinctly gratifying
and which are working directly against
the dangers which appear on the sur
face when foreigner looks at some
particular phase of life. The danger
from the high living does not seem so
important as the other suggestion that
American prosperity is leading to in
efficiency and corruption. I'm bygone
years." Mr.. Mosely notes, zone was i'm
pressed with the thorough way In which
everything was done and every detail
thought out, but the same Is not true
to-day. On the contrary, there are
signs that everything is becoming slip
shOd. Work Is inefficiently done and
badly finished" That Is common
charge brought by foreigners against
ALueTlCdu metuOuS. IL lb Sdiu tudt we
do not build for all time but for few
years only. 1t Is said that our prod
ucts are not comparable for nicely and
precision with the output Of the manu-
featuring establishments of the old
world. We have been fairly content
with the results when American made
goods have come into competition with
those Of other nations, and yet even
this good record should not blind us If
there Is such a marked deterioration in
workmanship that 1t Is noticed by a
careful observer. Mr.. Mosely thinks
everything overdone and overcrowded.
Everybody appears to be in too great a
hurry, SO that In the race for success
and wealth many Of the former good
characteristics Of the country are dis
appearing. But the same things have
been noted by travellers for hundred
years. Americans have always been in
a hurry.
