CAPTAIN REEFS
ALMOST ADMIRAL
Commission Not Yet Signed by
President Who Is
En- Tour.

During the course of Colonel Denny e
address at the Commercial Club yes
terday that officer constantly referred
to Captain Rees, the commandant of
the Honolulu naval station, as Admiral
Rees. Coming from the lips of ser
vice officer, it appeared that Colonel
Denny was using the newer title ad-
visedly, inasmuch as On October %
last Captain Rees' promotion to the
grade of admiral should have become
effective.
On account of President Taft being
on his tour of the United States it is
quite likely that the executive has had
no time to sign up the new commits
sions. The President will be back at
the White House in few days and
the commission appointing Captain
Rees an admiral in the navy will doubt
less be signed.

Colonel Denny was the guest of
honor of the Commercial Club yester-
day noon, and although he said he was
to make his maiden speech, his address
was a polished after-luneheon speech,
teeming with wit and fact and all
presented in a most attractive way,
although it was no joke that it was his
first public speech. He was introduced
by E. c. Brown, president of the club
wh9 spoke of former luncheons at
which both army and navy men bad
given addresses, and stating that this

HOUSE.

If it had not been for the fact that,
just at four clock yesterday after
noon, Representative Douthitt insisted
upon and succeeded in carrying through
a motion that the committee Of the
whole rise and report progress and ask
leave to sit again, the house would yes
terday have concluded its work on the
administration bill for the amendment
of the Organic Act, and, with the OK
ception of passing on third reading the
bill to appropriate money for its own
expenses, and possibly Castro's joint
resolution creating commission to as
sst homesteaders, would have been
through with all the work of the special
session originating in the lower house.
AS things stood when the committee
of the whole rose yesterday, its work
was done; all that was needed was the
vote on a motion to recommend the
bill.
gets another crack at it this morning
is different question, for the members
will have had night to think up new
amendments to the bill, and there is
no doubt but that some will be offered
Stealing senate's Thunder.
In fact, it is expected that a very i'm
portant amendment will be proposed
this morning, one to the effect that the
amendment of the land laws of the
Territory be left to the legislature.
This was the last Kuhio bill at the
last regular session of congress which
was endorsed by the house here. 1t
is understood that the senate insists
upon this provision, probably as an
axe with which to kill the bill entire
ly. 1t is figured that if the house itself
Incorporates the provision in the bill,
the senate thunder will be stolen and
it can not consistently refuse to pass
the bill. OF course, congress can do
as it pleases in regard to any such a
proposition.
Douthitt S motive in moving that the
committee rise DGlOES IdhluS Aud1 az
ton on the bill as a whole was to save
Castro S joint resolution providing for
a commission on advances to homestead
ers. An attempt had been made to
incorporate in the administration bill
a provision allowing the Territory to
raise funds by the issuance of bonds to
provide money for loans to homestead
ers. But the effort had resulted in
failure Seeing that the committee of
the whole was on the point of conclud'
ing its labors and recommending the bill,
Douthitt saved the situation by NOV
ing that the committee rise and report
progress and ask leave to sit again.
Resolution Saved.
This motion saves Castro s resolution
which would be worthless without some
provision for raising the funds needed
for carrying it into effect, but it also
leaves the door open for all sorts of
additional amendments.
The house has, however, been very
expeditions in its work. Better than
that, it has passed upon the whole of
the administration bill and has made
few changes in it, and those few only
of a minor nature. In fact, the house
has done itself credit this special ses-
sion The main question now is, what
will the senate do9 And what the SEN
ate will do is what is troubling the
friends of the administration bill, for
it is now taken for granted that An

WALL STREET NOTES.

Bullish operations are expected to
carry prices somewhat higher. Until
the situation becomes more clear good
profits should not be ignored by either
trader or investor. Reactions will be
more frequent and will develop sud-
denly.
The market gives strong evidence Of
going higher, and brokers advise pur-
chases OF such stocks as Atchison,
Steel. Pennsylvania, Southern and
Union Pacific. For several days
they have called attention to the
fact hat the Atchison dividend
would be increased to 6 per cent. and
the buying yesterday clearly indicated
that very influential operators believe
that this stock will sell considerably
higher. Steel common continues in its
upward course, and people will soon
begin to talk of s per cent. dividends,
although such dividend talk is not en-
tertained by the directors, at the pres
ent time at least. -Four per cent. divi-
dend, however, will be paid. There is
a possibility of money touching higher
rates this week, which may tempo
rarily chill the bull enthusiasm, The
market Is going higher, however, and
there are good speculative and invest
ment purchases anywhere on the
standard railroad and Industrial list.
