HER DRESS BURNED
But Mrs. George Maker Put Out Flames
Before She Was Hurt.

While preparing dinner to-day, Mrs.
George Maker Of Hall street had mar
row escape from being severely burned.
She was standing with her back toward
a gas stove and so near that her apron
strings became ignited from the flame.
The fire ran to her dress and she began
to feel the heat. Thinking that the
heat was because OF too close proximity
to the stove, she stepped forward little
and the heat followed and became
stronger Then she glanced around and
saw that her clothing was atire. With
great presence of mind she ran to the
sink and seizing a basin Of water dashed
the contents over her back. In this way
she extinulished the flames, but not
until they had burned her dress consider
ably, although not having reached the
body. 1t was a close call, indeed

sHoRT-LIvED STRIKE AT AIEA.

The news has just been received of
a short-lived strike among the japanese
of the Aiea plantation, which started
on Wednesday morning and lasted for
a part of the day, eight hundred of the
plantation field hands taking part.
The trouble, so far as can be learned,
arose over the fact that the amount
of money coming to the contract plant
ing Japanese fell short on account of
a shortage in the crop in that part
of the plantation worked by them and
that the management paid them off at
the rate of SIS a month. The contrac-
tors claimed that the rate should have
been $50 month.
The matter was satisfactorily adjust
ed almost before the Japanese agitators
in Honolulu had chance to begin
celebrating.

MARINE
LINE PARTS AND
MAN IS INJURED
Considerable Trouble in Dock
ing Mongolia shipping
Notes.

After meeting some rough weather
shortly after leaving the Orient which
delayed her in arriving here, the Pa
cifc Mail liner Mongolia was sighted
O'Clock, not getting into her dock, how
ever until six clock. 1t was low tide
when the Mongolia pulled into the har-
Dor, and considerable difficulty attend
ed her getting up to the side of the
wharf.
A big line was taken from the bow
of the vessel to- the makai end of the
wharf, to assist in getting her along
side. Too heavy strain was appa-
rently put on this, and it parted, one
end flying back and striking China
man who was standing near. He was
hit on the head, according to bystand-
ers who were near. The patrol wagon
was called, and the injured man taken
to the hospital.
The Mongolia carries a heavy cargo
for this port, her consignments to local
interests amounting 10 12oo bouS. Inc
liner is loaded deep this voyage with
cargo. She had an uneventful trip to
Honolulu from the Orient.
The Mongolia brought a large num-
Der of passengers, the majority of
whom are for the mainland. Nine Of
the passengers were for this city. A
party of missionaries, most of whom
are on vacation and are intending to
return to the mainland, are passing
through on their way to the States.
Some of these are well known locally.
The Mongolia will sail for the main
land at ten clock this morning.

Aloha, Captain Saunders.

According to one of the officers on
the Manchuria, Captain Saunders will
be put in command of the ship on her
next voyage cut from San Francisco.
Captain Saunders was given a little
vacation, which many thought would
be permanent, a short while ago on
account of fracas which he had with
the surgeon of the ship, who was also
removed. Captain Saunders is himself
quoted as saying that he will be back
in command of the big Manchuria on
her next trip from San Francisco, so
there seems to be little doubt that he

Contract For Work Will Be Let Next
 Wednesday.

Chattanooga, June 20.-(Special. .)-"By November 1 the new incline up the side of Lookout Mountain, being built by At lanta capitalists, will be in operation" This was the remark made by one who knows what he is talking about. The survey for the line has been completed and next Wednesday the contract for the construction of the road will be let and work will be commenced at once. The distance will be 400 feet, and the uni form grade of the road will be but 33 per cent. It will be possible to use double deck cars on this line, similar to those in use at Eden Park in Cincinnati. The lower part of the car is to be used for the transportation of carriages, autos, etc., while the passengers will ride on the upper decks. The car will be so con- structed that a team can drive upon it at the foot of the mountain, then when it reaches the summit simply drive off and continue it's way. Motive power will be furnished by the lock and dam plant which has begun to transmit current to the city. The contract for electrical power to propel the cars of the new road has already been made, although the cars will not be in operation until about No- yember 1.

FINANCIAL REVIEW OF
 THE WEEK JUST PASSED

effect of the previous estimates of re- fined copper stocks. The weeks returns of European copper statistics, in turn, have modified the impression of the large reported increase in deliveries and ex- ports of American refined copper. Ex- ports have played the largest part in this apparentgrowth in consumptive demands. The exports are shown by the European reports to have gone largely into ware house stocks rather than into consump- tion. This evidence of the speculative character of the recent demand for re- fined copper resulted In a violent de- cline in the London price of the metal and induced acute depression in copper industrials everywhere. The culpability admitted in form by the American Sugar Refining company in the compromise of the suit against 1t by the Pennsylvania Sugar Refining company, which invited the entrance into the matter of the gov ernment prosecuting officers and prom ised to suggest new methods In seeking the enforcement of laws against cor porations was another subject that loomed upon the speculative attention
 President Taft's recommendation for tax on corporation earnings and an n- come tax were not regarded as formid- able in their import, but the incidental features of the earnings tax measure involving widespread inquisitorial powers into the business of corporations aroused fears of serious consequences.
 Money rates were not greatly altered during the week. but the large transac- tions in progress made additional re- quirements for credits and were suspect ed to have some occult influence on the action of the week s stock market. Large 1 borrowing from foreign tenders went on and new bond issues came on the mar ket.
 Crop advices were favorable.
