Sane.

The first meeting Of the Lunacy Com
mission, under the new law, resulted in
the release from the Insane Asylum of

time ago as paranoiae The meeting
was held Tuesday afternoon. The
members of the commission are Hon.
Alexander Lindsay, DR.. J. r. Judd, and
DR.. Moore All three were present at
the hearing.
Under the old law it rested with the
superintendent of the Insane Asylum

Silva. The claim was advanced that
since entering the asylum de Silva had

OAHU DIVIDEND
ONE and HALF
Announcement Causes General
Strengthening of the
Market.

The long rumored cut in the dividends
of Oahu planta ion was made yesterday
morning. at a special meeting of the
board of directors. The cut was not as
heavy as pessimists had been prophe-
swing. and a noticeable strengthening
of the stock was the result. One and
one half per cent is now the dividend
rate. instead of two per cent as here
tofore
1t is authoritatively announced that
the plantation will be able to pay the
new rate permanently, however. This
news pleased investors, and there was
a noticeable strengthening.
Before the session yesterday morn
ing 400 shares of Oahu stock, in good
sized blocks, were sold at $2S.25, the
lowest point reached since the recent
slump began During the session, after
the announcement of the new dividend
rate, the first sale made was at $2S.75,
closely followed by one at $29. The
session closed with the stock at 500
asked.
Even greater advance is looked for,
and it would not cause surprise on Mer-
chant street were the stock to advance
to $50 before the end of the week.
The forecasted increase in Waialua s
dividend rate came yesterday morning,
when the directors announced that the
new dividend would be three-quarters
Of one per cent instead of one-half, as
heretofore. Sales of this stock were
made at 500, 1925, 1880, $99.75 and
800. The session closed with the stock
held at 800. The last previous sale
recorded was at $3.50.
For Eva plantation, an extra divi-
dend of 2 per cent, payable on August
81, was announced No sales of this
stock were made during the session,
but they closed at $29 asked.
There was more trading than for sew
eral days past The largest individual
deal consisted of $25, 900 worth of Ha-
makua Ditch 6s at $101. There was q
general anxiety to get in, and there is
every indication that some of the PEG
pie who fastened to unload when the
market showed signs of slumping, have
repented of their haste and are just as
DESTROYS of getting their money bach
into sugar.

me of some Importance to present to
you for your information, and | trust,
circulation through your paper, the in
formation that has come to me from
the manager of the Lake Mohonk Con-
ference. 1t is to be held the third
week in October. They are very de-
sirous to have representatives from Ha-
waii on that occasion, and would
especially desire some of the present
residents of the Islands. The former
residents have made good their oppor-
tunity, as you probably know, but mat
tiers concerning Hawaii, so far as Ma
tional and Historic affairs are con
cerned, have been well presented. The
managers would be very glad indeed
for practical views from practical men
in regard to the State affairs, CONNER
cial, educational, financial and moral.
It would be very desirable for the use
of the conference and information Of
the general public to know how far
during the last decade has the question
of government been worked out by
the Hawaiians to the satisfaction of
the friends of good government of the
Islands. This is quite an Important
question as affecting the relations be
tween the United States and what are
known at Mohonk as 'the independent
people, of the government.
l send You this hasty sketch of an
idea, hoping that you and the friends
of Hawaii may put it into such shape
before your readers that an effort will
be made to have representative at
tendance at the Conference. Trusting
this may interest you, remain,
Yours very truly,

Many people never suspect their kid

Demise, Says Son

a statement made by William F. Foley.
brother of Kate Foley. the Berkeley
girl who has achieved notoriety by
several escapades that finally landed
her in jail, Patrick Foley. her father,
who died at the Providence hospital
two weeks ago. lost his life largely on
account of worry over his daughters
conduct.
This admission of the brother was
made to Detective Henry Jamfson of
the Berkeley force when the former
was called upon for $40 bail money to
release his sister from a charge of
battery, preferred against her by Miss
Cecilia Bell, a colored woman, whom
Miss Foley is alleged to have beaten
up Sunday afternoon. The girl was
arrested for this on Monday and later
escaped from the police station, re-
turning last night after stating that
she had gone out to keep a date"
She was placed in a cell at once on
her return, having been allowed before
her escape to occupy a chair in the
Jail office.
The Foley girl was arrested three
months ago for battery on the person
of Mrs Harriet Hallahan, a neighbor,
and tried by jury three times before
being released on disagreements. Ac-
ton was brought by Mrs. Hallahan
who alleged she was seriously injured
by the mixup.
When the Hallahan warrant was
first sworn to the Foley girl hid for
three days in the attic of her fathers
house in Oregon street, south Berkeley,
and afterward figured in an exciting
chase with a number of newspaper
photographers, in which she was as
sisted to escape over a fence from her
tormentors by Supervisor Fred Foss
and Charles Mills prominent clubman
The trouble with the Bell woman is
the outcome of the Ha1lahan squabble,
as Miss Bell testified against the Foley
woman at the former battery trials.

would sue her brother, Fred Lucas, and
her brother in law, John Collins of
Hayward, for 5000 damages because
of indignities which she said they had
heaped upon her in their moves to have
a guardian appointed. AS an earnest
of her plans for retaliation she said she
had already filed suit against them in
the justices court to collect board
bill.
When Mrs. Nichols signed the regis

the Jlicense was secured, her hand
shook so that she made mark scarce
