FINANCIAL CONDITIONS

4 points below last year, but points
above the year before. With our III
dustrial and agricultural situations
both in such promising condition, it is
not surprising that confidence is grow
ing. and already running into strong
degree of optimism. The dangers
that once more confront us are those
of over-confidence, excessive specu-
lation and the fostering of unsound
and illegitimate enterprises, all OF
which are stimulated to an unWhoIe-
some degree by an excessive supply
great expansion in loans shows upon
of abnormally cheap money. The great
expansion in loans shows upon what
an extensive scale speculation is now
being conducted by big operators.
No immediate change is anticicated
in the monetary outlook. Funds are
very plentiful at low rates, the lat
fer heing likely to continue for at
least another two or three months
Loans are lowering about record
breaking figures, indicating unusual
speculative demands. The end OF
uheap money, however, is already III
sight, and will begin as soon as crop
and business demands assert them
selves more positively. This will prob
ably not appear within another two cl
three months. Then we may looF

he came down here to look into The
Hawaiian Dredging Company, which
is closely allied with the company of
which Mr.. Hindes is president, Will
act as the local representative of the
California company and all financial

company has not taken over the con
tract. however, as stated in a local
paper some days aGo, as this cannot
be done, such contract not being as
signable.
The first part of the work to be
done will be in connection with the
excavation Of the site for the new dry
dock. This will be done with the Ha-
waiian Dredging Company's machines
which are on hand here and which
can effect a considerable saving in
the work as compared with having it
done by a plant specially brought

This was not the only unlicensed
love affair in the police court In the
next matter to be presented a child
played the reconciliator. A Hawaiian
woman, well appearing, told her hus-
band when they were down country
that she wished to see her folks in Ho-

bands anxiety and he followed the
wife of his bosom to Honolulu without
her knowledge He found her paying
Eve in a Chinese Garden of Eden,
whereupon he banged her in the left
eye with his right fist and punched her
in her right eye with his left fist and
hit her in the mouth with both fists.
She sWore out warrant for assault
and battery. but when the case came
up for trial in police court she shed
many tears and would not prosecute.
They, or rather their child, had patch
ed up the differences between them.
Sntence on Akai, the husband was
suspended for 13 months and they went
on their way, not exactly rejoicing, but
determined to be all in all unto each
other. at least until a more convenient
occasion to be otherwise.
r. J. Roe this morning had a dispute
with his wife at the breakfast table.
Whether it was the cooking or mat
ter of jealousy is difficult to say. In
any event, he exercised the brute pero-
gative and blacked her eye. He's Irish
and she's Hawaiian. Fifteen days on

LUNACY law May
Be Unconstitutional

Now comes DR., Atcherley, whom
Judge Andrade and four physicians
have declared insane and a danger il
left loose, claiming that the law under
which he was charged with and tried
for insanity is unconstitutional; and
he appeals to the Circuit Court of the
Territory, claiming that he has as
much right to appeal case of alleged
insanity as anyone else has a right to
appeal a case of assault and battery.
The new law, drawn by Judge George
Davis and passed by the last Legisla-
ture, does not provide for appeal to
any tribunal except what is called the
lunaey commission, consisting of a

When Hakuole came -hC was put on
and told of what he saw and heard as a

Mr.. Sheba gave a history of the
higher wage agitation beginning last
September telling of the campaign OF
abuse of himself, unceasing to this day,
for having failed to swing his paper
into line with the strike movement
| Most interesting of his testimony was
in the form of exhibits of translations
of articles from the Nippu Jill made by
the witness. Mr.. Lightfoot objected
to their admission when offered by Mr..
Kinney, but Judge De Bolt overruled
the objections with the reservation that
when the articles were read he would
decide whether or not to strike them

He has noted an appeal from the
decision of the police court; has noted
an appeal not to the lunacy commits
sion but to the circuit court, and his
action is based on legal advice,
Judge Andrade has not yet signed
the papers which are required to take
Atcherley over to the insane asylum.
Atcherley is still at the police station
In the meanwhile Atcherley and his
wife are planning their case for hear

an Electric Company is being forced to
make very large extensions in it's

of~the company, stated today that the
500 volt power would be increased to
double it's present capacity at once and
that at the first OF the coming year
the capacity of the entire plant would
lie doubled. In speaking of the eX-
tensions Mr.. Gartley said:
"The 500 volt converter which is
used for power is now nearly up to
its full capacity so we have decided
to order at once five hundred l1ilo-
watt rotary converter. The one in
use at present is of $50 kilowatt ca
pacity. We wish to keep ahead of the

Andrade has more than once consid-
cred citing the constructors of the
new Japanese bank for contempt, for
it has been most difficult TO proceed
with the daily hearings while there
is such a noise as comes from build
ing in course of completion.
Judge Andrade refrained from ex-
ercising the perogative of the court
for the reason that he did not want
to interrupt the speedy completion of
the building. The sooner built, the
sooner quiet, Besides, it would be in

"In addition to this about the first

the capacity of our entire plant by the
installation of a fifteen hundred kilo-

"The use of the day current, which

been fully up to our expectations. To-
day I sent cable order for one hun

week we had fifty left, and now they
