For a Monday, the Stock Exchange
had what may be termed lively ses-
sion this morning. A large number
of shares of different stocks were re-
ported as having been sold since the
previous session and the sale, in most
instances, formed the basis of calcula-
tions this morning. On Change con-
siderable life was manifested and had
it not been for the arrival of the out
side mails during the board there
would perhaps have been a record lot
of transactions.
AS anticipated in these columns, Pho
neer sold between boards at $3.50 (25O
shares in alb and Waialua $405 shares)
at STA. Other sales between boards
were: Olaa, 90 at 81 so; Honokaa, 27O
at $40. 1915; Hawaiian Pineapple, 100 at
$27. 50; /. 1. S. N. Co., Al at $1O9 so
and 165 at $40; Eva 80 at $31. 25.
On the boards this morning 100 Eva
sold for $31 25, 10 Koloa for $3.50, 60
McBrfyde at 1878 and $4,000 Olaa Is,
at 500.
Eva was trife weak at the close
of Change this morning, shares being
offered at $91. 25 with $31 bid. Ha-
waiian Agricultural appeared strong at
$3.50, none offering for less than $1S5.
Hawaiian Commercial was offered az
1874 20, but no one seemed to care for
the stock at that figure. For Hawai-
ian Sugar $46.5O was bid and SAT so
asked Honokaa offerings held up to
$19. 1916, although only $19.25 was bid.
Koloa received bids of $145 but holders
wanted $152 so. Oahu was firm at $32
holders demanding 1872. 125. Pioneer
was solid as rock at $3.50 bid and 1892
askedo. Waialua found ready sale at
$114, holders demanding STA so. Wal
manalo was offered at $252 so and Wal
Inea at $3.50 Inter Island sold at
$40, but holders demanded Sill this
morning. Holders of Oahu railway
wanted $135.
Between boards there were several
big sales of bonds. Four blocks of
Hilo railway skies 5000, $29, 900, SO 900
and $4,000 realized 500, while $4,000
Waialua IS, sold for $1OO.25.

pose of authorizing the issue of $780,

start at par.

necessary, for few men more than 40
years old were sane in Galveston just
then.
For ten days and ten nights KiTwin
worked in the ruins digging out the
dead and carrying them TO feed the
ever-buTning fires. In those ten days he
did not have, all told, twenty-four hours
OF sleep. But in those ten days order
was brought out of chaos. the city was
saved from total destruction, and the
basis was laid for the new Galveston Of

When those terrible ten days were

barges. They had carried but few
when a big ITishman came over and
said:
Get out of that, father. This is no
work for you. I'll take your place
The priest told him no; that he would
continue at it until all the Irish in the
party returned or until they forced the
negroes to resume their labor. He
added that he knew it was terrible work,
but that it was necessary in order TO
save the living.
The Irish gang quickly Overawed the
negro force and soon the task Of carry
ing the dead to the barges was under
way again. KiTwin hates liquor, but
he stood at the head Of the line, and as
each man came back after delivering his
grewsome load he handed 4 tin dipper
Of whisky to him TO drink.

At last the barges had their CHASTITY car

aboard, and then the priest followed,
knelt and said a prayer Tor the dead.
When he had finished the lines ,-ere cast
off, the tug started out through the jet

There was rejoicing when the boats
returned. The people thought that all
that was necessary 70 prevent the
plague was TO dig out the bodies quick
~, put them aboard barges, take them
out to sea and feed them TO the sharks.
But the following day new horror
came 10 the sorely stricken city The
tide brought back the dead that had
gone forth on the bsrges and cast them
windows on the beach.
Kirwin went 10 one o. the warehouses
and got three barrels Of oil. With diff
ficulty he managed 10 transport them to
the gulf side Of the city, where the tide
was heaping up its CHASTITY human
wreckase. With Morissey and few
others he gathered masses Of criftwood
here and there. With his same crew OF
ITishmen and with his same crew of
negroes they piled the eoFpses on those
heaps of wood. Some of the corpses
they gathered from the sands where
the tide had left them; others they
waded into the surf to seize over the
heaps of slain they sprinkled ana poured
the inhammabie oil. Then with lighted
torch the priest went from pyTe to pyre
and set them all aflame. lie burned the
