SYNDICATE TO
BACK MITSUKA

Mitsuka did lot of road-work yes
terday and then wrestled with a couple
of his husky countrymen in Japanee-
town. He is coming down in his
weight and looks much harder and
filter than he did a week ago.
Today he will work at the Qrpheum
with viii Prestidge, whose injured
ankle has got all right again.
Two Of the biggest and strongest
Japanese wrestIers in Honolulu have
been engaged to wrestle with Nit
suka this week and he expects to de-
rive much benefit from the work he
does with them.
Mitsuka won the Hawaiian wrestling
championship by defeating man who
had thrown three of the best men en-
tered in the competition. His coun-
trymen declare that he is the best
wrestler who has ever come to the
Territory.
There is great keenness among the
four big Japs who have been booked
for the wrestling preliminary on Sat-
urday night. They are all good men
and the winner will challenge Mitsuka
for the local championship under Jap
anese rules.
From present indications there will
be plenty of money to back Mitsuka
against Roberts, and it is said that
couple of Japanese gambling syndi-
Gates are going to wager heavily on
their countryman.

ROBERTS PUTS
ON WEIGHT

Sailor Roberts weighed It's pounds
when he started training for his
wrestling bout with Mitsuka. After
working yesterday he tipped the beam
at 1T pounds, and Pete Baron, his
trainer, says that he will send his man
onto the mat weighing 1S2 pounds. His
policy is to build the sailor up as
much as possible in order to offset the
extra avoirdupois of the japanese.
Baron has cut down Roberts
weight-lifting stunts and is giving him
extra doses of skipping, stair-climb-
ing, floor work and bridging. He
worked an hour and twenty-five min
utes yesterday morning and half an
hour in the afternoon.
Professor Baron is giving him
plenty of massage with most salts
factory results. The sailor has lost
nearly every trace of muscle-bound
and moves about as lithely as a cat.
There is great confidence in Roberts
along the waterfront. The Iroquois
boys bet odds on his chances on Sat
urday night and he is anxious to back
himself for all the money he can Sc
cure. Professor Baron said yesterday
that Roberts has been underestimated
as a wrestler and that he can handle
him easier than Hans F'roelecher
could. And Baron ought TO know, for
he has trained both men.
Today Roberts will do some road
work on the sand makai Of the Hea-
Iani boathouse, and in the afternoon
may wrestle with Frank Kanae, who
wants to learn as much about the
game as possible.

MANY BOXERS
ABOARD CROOK
Jack Weday and Charlie Web
Der Both Matched to
Fight at Sea.

There promises to be something do
ing aboard the transport Crook on
her way to San Francisco, in the way
of boxing.
Three good bouts are arranged, and
are looked forward to with keen in
terest by those aboard the troopship.
Wells of Co. D, Second Infantry,
will go three rounds with Webster
(colored) of the Tenth Cavalry. The
men are bantamweights.
In the lightweight class, Sterne of
E Battery, Fifth Artillery, is match
ed with Charlie Weber of the Crook.
The principal match will be between
Jack Duffy and Jack Weday, two
middleweights.
Charlie Webber is well known on
the Coast as a clever boxer and has
figured in a number of preliminaries,
He has backing to the anount of
$1,000 aboard the transport, and his
friends wanted to match him against
any man of his weight in Honolulu
until they learned that the game was
tabu here.
Jack Weday is working aboard the
Crook. He was round town yesterday
shaking hands with his old friends.
Jack fought a number of good
fights in Honolulu several years ago
and was always a trier. On this ac-
count and because of his pleasant dis
position Weday was very popular
here.
After leaving here he went to China
and then to Australia. His last call
here was on his way home to San
Francisco from the Colonies.

KAMS MAINTAIN
WINNING STREAK
Defeat High School Nine and
Look Like lnterschoIastic
Champions.

The team which Kamehameha was
yesterday afternoon. The nine repre-
senting the High School suffered an
overwhelming defeat at their hands,
1872 being the score.
The game was played on the win
ners' ground and that may account in
some measure for the Rams taking
the first two games.
Interscholasric fans are awaiting
with some interest the day when the
Kan team will meet the Punahous on
the 1atter's field. Things are expect
ed to turn out a bit differently then
at least, that is what Punahou's sup
porters are saying and hoping.
The Highs were the first to bat. Sin
Hun was first with the club. No High
School man had a run chalked up to
his credit until the eighth inning,
when Sin Hun redeemed himself
somewhat by a hit which brought in
the first run for the wearers of the
black and gold Chez, who pitched,
followed the example set him by Hun
and also managed to get rum Tnat
ended the run making as far as the
Highs were concerned.
Scoring honors with the Rams have
to be divided between Mackenzie, Ka-
maiapili Naeole. Milikaa and Josiah.
With the exception of Naeole. who
scored three runs, these batters made
two runs apiece.
In the eighth inning the Highs
switched about a lot, shifting positions
in the hope of strengthening their
team. The change was a good one,
and had the Highs made 1t earlier in
the day a better showing in runs
might have resulted, as it was in the
eighth inning that the Highs scored
their two runs.
The game was devoid of sensation
al features. Errors a-plenty were
made by both teams.

COLLEGE WON
FROM TRANSPORT
st. Louis Boys Put Up Fast
Game With Soldier
Nine.

The crack st. Louis College team did
the trick with the soldiers from the
transport Crook yesterday afternoon at
Aala park after one of the fastest base
ball games seen here.
The score at the end was to in
the best game in their history. The
soldiers proved to be good players of
the national game and Notwithstanding
their sea-legs they gave the college
nine a stiff fight for the honors.
In the first spasm both teams failed
to tally, but in the second and third
innings, the college team scored runs.
The men from the transport didn't
score until the fifth inning, when two
runs were credited to them through
errors. Things looked good for the
soldiers for a while, until the crack
first baseman, ."Cy'' Johnson, was in
jured and Batter came In to fill the
vacancy. The two pitchers, Schneider
for the visitors, and VIM. Espinda for
the local team, did good work, espe-
cially the latter, who puzzled the SOL
diers with his benders.
Heine English, who piloted the coll
lege team to victory, should be given
credit for the work he did.
Following is the lineup:

STOCK MARKET REVIEW.
Professional Operators Engaged in
 Trading Jackknives."

New York, Feb. 25.-The neglected condition of the stock market was un- relieved to-day. Rather, after tenn porary increase of activity In the nor ming, it was aggravated in the later dealings. Business originated almost entirely within the walls of the stock exchange. Dealings were based on mo- tiyes calculated to appeal to the pro- fessional habits of traders. An exam pie of the character of the transactions and of the lack of consistency in the traders arguments was offered In Union Pacific The books Of that company for transfer of stock close tomorrow and consequently the value of the ? 12 dividend will be deducted from the price of the stock One party of trad CTS bought the stock on the ground that the deduction of 1-2 points from the price tomorrow will make 1t look cheap and invite demand. Another party sold it on the ground that shorts had been covering in the stock because they would be obliged to pay the amount of the dividend in carrying charges tomorrow, but would be pre- pared to put out fresh short lines when the dividend is deducted. The profes- sional traders themselves designate such market as trading jack knives" as they derive as little profit from 1t as school boys engaged in that transactions. The bear party amongst the traders tested the market with short sales at the outset on the as, sumption that the treasury call upon the national banks, except those of the smaller class, for return of S35, 900, 900 of government deposits during March might prompt some liquidation of stocks, This call by the secretary of the treasury has been clearly indicated by the downward course of the margin of the governments free working bal ance of cash. Moreover, the money supplies are now so considerable that the banks can part with this sum with ont embarrassment, while the treasury will be correspondinglS strengthened in it's facilities to help with relief for the money market when cash begins to leave the reserve centers to move the crops Poor net earnings, fears of coming dividend reducuon and an in- junction against the distribution of a dividend already declared were specific causes for weakness fn individual stocks to-day. Repurchases were made of stocks sold short and the days changes In prices are or no conse- quence.
 Bonds were easy. Erie general 4s broke points to 55. Total sales par value, s3,53S,000.

From Independent Oil Points to New
 England in Trust Suit.

Washington, Feb. 25.-When the talk ing of evidence in the suit of the gov ernment against the Standard oil com pany for the annulment of it's charter was renewed to-day, F. W. Boltz, traf- ic manager of the National Petroleum association of Cleveland Ohio, testi- fled that when he assumed his pres ent position he found the rates from independent oil points to New England in chaotic condition.
 Petroleum products were discrimina- ted against, he said. Under the pres ent arrangement most of the railroads pre-rated petroleum from the middle west to New England points. Since this pre-rating arrangement had gone into effect the rates to independent re- liners had shown a reduction of l-2 to 20 cents per hundred pounds, thus increasing the business of the inde- pendent reflners in the New England territory.
