mouth. Death came about five hours
after the accident occurred.
Young Moore lived with his mother,
Mrs. Arch Moore, at Williamsport,
and was spending the summer with

SATISFIED WITH
SITUATION NOW
SOUTHERN FURNACE MEN ARE
VERY MUCH PLEASED WITH
THE PRESENT OUTLOOK.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, July 26-Sales
of pig iron by Southern furnaces are
being made at $12 for seasonable lots,
at $3.50 for small and carload lots,
while it is reported that in some quar-
tiers sales have been made as low
as $11.75. This is about the situa-
ton, with not very much doing cur
rently. However, the Southern fur
mace men are satisfied with condi-
lions. There is no immediate pros
pect of increase in production, while
there is great prospect of increase
in demand. The water pipe trade
displays exceptional activity, and
these plans are large buyers straight
along. The Nelson pipe plant at Bes-
semer has just bought a 6-O00-ton lot,
and the United States Cast Iron Pipe
& Foundry Company is in the market
all the time.
No Southern furnaces have shut
down on account of the nine strike
in Alabama yet Scarcity of local |
coke has been met by large shipments
from Virginia. There is great guam
tity of coke coming in, in spite of I'M
official denials. The coke-pullers'
strike at Bessemer may cause a call
'or still more.

ASSOCIATION FOR AID
VANCEMENT OF SCIENCE WANTS
TO MEET IN HONOLULU.

The American Association for the
Advancement of Science is apparently
anxious to hold its meeting in the
summer of 1910 in this city, as is ap-
parent from the following letter given
out for publication by Acting Cover
nor Mott-Smith:
My Dear Sir:-At the meeting OF
this Association held in Chicago last,
January, an invitation was presented
by Professor c. G. Nutting, represent
ing Mr.. W. A. Bryan, (who was tenn
porarily ILL, asking the Association to
hold meeting in Hawaii in the sum
mer of 1910. BY a resolution of the
joint committee of the Association, this
invitation was accepted, provided
suitable arrangements can be made).
AT a meeting of the Committee on
Foley of this Association, held in
Washington on the twenty-first of this
month, l was instructed to gain fur
Their information regarding this invi-
tation in order that it may be placed
before the Association at it's summer
meeting to be held from June 29th to
July 4th at Hanover, New Hampshire.
am, therefore, writing to you and to
the gentlemen whose names appear
below to ask whether the invitation is
a general one in which the people OF
the Islands are interested, and thus
whether the Association will be quite
welcome. l wish further to ascertain
whether there is a probability that a
strong Committee on Reception and
Arrangements will be instituted and
especially whether, in your opinion, ar
rangements can be made for free trans
portation or for very great reduction
in the cost of transportation. More
over, can you suggest any specific feat
ures of interest or give me any general
facts relating to probable entertain
ment? Would it be possible for the
gentlemen listed below, to whom have
sent this letter, to hold a meeting to
discuss the matter and send me a
joint reply, or will you send me an in
dividual reply?
1T will be we'll if the information is
in my hands by the twenty-ninth of
June, but no final action will be made
before the next midwinter meeting to
be held in Baltimore Believe me, my
dear sir, Yours most sincerely,

ADVERSE
TO KOKI
JUDGE DOLE RENDERS AN I'M
PORTANT RULING IN THE POST
OFFICE ENLIGHTENMENT CASE.

The prosecution in the case against
Moses Koki, charged with embezzling
money from the postoffice at Kamu-
ella, gained a strong point this morn
ing, when Judge Dole decided that
the cash book and the letters of re
INITIAL from Kolli to Postmaster Pratt
could be admitted in evidence. 1t was
necessary that this should be done if
a case was to be established and an
adverse decision would have meant
the dropping of the embezzlement
case and the taking up of one charg-
ing Kold with robbing the mails.
District Attorney Breckons stated
that he would prove that Koki had
embezzled money from the postoflce
and then had covered it up, leaving
no apparent shortage, by robbing the
mails and using the money stolen
from registered packages to make up
his deficiency. The trial of the case
progressed this morning with Postal
Inspector Hare on the stand as a
witness for the prosecution.
