Sheriff Poses as Censor.

Hence the state of siege.
Sheriff Madden has attempted TO stop
any news being sent out of Winter by
telegraph or telephone. He has ord
cred that no one be allowed to speak
to Miss Dietz and that she be not al

An armed deputy sheriff stands at the
door Of the room where she lies seri-

Thirty-eight special deputies have
been sworn in. Heavily armed and
under military discipline, they encircle
the hotel to prevent Dietz from coming
to his daughters side.
To make sure that the warrant
served on the girl after four years of
police activity is not made nullity by

Public Sentiment Changes.
For years public sentiment has been

PUUNENE RETURNS
RECEIVED TO-DAY

Alexander e Baldwin received a
wireless from Puunene this morning
giving the final and full returns of
the crop of Hawaiian Commercial &
Sugar Company.
The total output was 56,S65 tons.
This is not only the biggest crop
ever turned out by Hawaiian Com
mercial but is the biggest yield for
any plantation in the Hawaiian Is
lands. All concerned are quite ma
trally elated over the results. The
total output of Hawaiian Commercial
has been the subject of considerable
guessing for months. At one parti-
cularly promising period, some ex
pressed the opinion that the yield
would reach 10000 tons; and at an
other time the Doubling Thomases
had drawn the output down to $4,000
and even less. Alexander & Baldwin
held to the belief that $4,000 tons
would be about the mark, and results
have shown that they did not miss
it very far and that the miss" was
ON the safe side.

HONOLULU IRON
WORK IN NEGROS

The lloilo Enterprise, a Philippine
newspaper, publishes the following in
teresting information concerning the
operations of the Honolulu Iron Works
in the island of Negroes:
The movement which has been on
foot for some months to install sugar
central at San Carlos has brought the
hacenderos and the capitalists to an
agreement within one percent of the
price offered for the output. The pro-
position of the Honolulu Iron Works is
to install the central, put in the rail
roads, mill the cane, and do every
thing for preparing the sugar for the
market and take forty-five per cent of
the product. The hacenderos are afraid
to enter into contract on percentage
Nasis and want to make fat rate,
proposing to sell the cane to the central
and take seven tons of sugar for every
hundred tons of cane delivered at the
mill. The estimates of independent ex-
perts who have made exhaustive in
vestigations in Negros place the pro-
duct for the whole island at twelve
and half tons of high grade sugar for
hundred tons of cane. On this basis
the seven tons which the hacenderos
ask would be fifty-six percent of the
product, or one percent more that the
capitalists offer.
The San Carlos cane is above the
average for the Island or Negroes, the
best grade Analysing at 14.45 tons of
high grade sugar for one hundred tons
of cane. 1t is thought by Independent
experts that with modern milling the
San Carlos cane viii produce little
more than the estimated average for
the whole island of twelve and hall
tons. If it will produce twelve and
ithree-fourths tons to the hundred tons
deros ask would be fifty-four and nine
tenths percent of the total product
leaving the proposition a little in favor
of the capitalists. The hacenderos feel
however, that they would rather fore
go the possibility of getting a greate
return If they can have a simpler met
hod of transaction, and one less liabl,
to cause friction with the capitalists
This feeling is more or less prevail
ent throughout Negros. All hacendero
are awake to the advantages of mo
ern milling but they are inclined t
be cautious in entering into contract
which they feel will sooner or late
} place them at the mercy of the capit'
lists.

BIG MONEY, THIS.

NEY YORK, June 3.-One of the
largest melons" ever sliced for the de-
lectation of stockholders will be cut by
the Singer Manufacturing company,
makers of sewing machine, which has
called a meeting of directors on Jun
IS to declare a $3O,OOO,OOO stock divi-
aend to it's shareholders. The company
has a surplus of $3O,OOO,OOO and the
stock dividend is 100 per cent. The
company has surplus of $9OOOO,OOO
but the directors believe that a stock
rather than a cash dividend is advis
able.

the following statement on behalf of
the Merchants Association;
q believe there is not a member Of
the Merchants Association but viii
congratulate Delegate Kuhio upon his
success in this large and delicate mat
ter When the subject was first
preached I hoped for the best, but at
the same time feared that Iuhio had
been led into a rrap. That such was not
the case is all the more to his credit 1t
was this fear in mind that caused the
Merchants Association to send it's
guarded cablegram Of a week ago.
81 now say that l consider that
Kuhio has done wonderful work in this
matter, and I think the community az
large may wen congratulate itself upon
securing the entire block for the Fede-
raj building site"
This change in affairs will neces-
slate alterations in the plans of some
of the occupants, or prospective oc-
cupants, Of the Fort street block be
tween King and Merchant. For in
stance, Castle & Cooke, who expected
! to move into the Cummins block early
in the fall, will probably have to make
other arrangements.

THE STOCK MARKET
OPENS VERY WEAK

The stock market opened up this
morning rather sleepy There were
some inquiries, but transactions were
few and small. Buyers manifest con
siderable uncertainty, but the reasons
are hard to determine. The new law
in regard to leases of Territorial
lands may have something to do with
it; although it is rather early yet to
determine just how the scheme will
work out.
Between boards As, Is and so
shares Oahu sold at s33, but this
morning the stock was weak-unex-
pectedly, unusually and unaccount-
ably weak. At the close $S2. rs was
bid, while the stock was offered at
1872. S75.
Another sale between boards vas
of 20 shares Paia at $3.50, after which
$145 was bid and S155 asked. These
figures represented no considerable
change.
On the street sales of 100 and IS
Eva were made at 500 rs, whicl
was about the old basis. This morn
ing the same was bid for more, but
holders were demanding S34, indicat-
ing that the stock was holding its
own in a sluggish market.
Bond sales between boards were
$4,000 McBryde skies at 1913. rs and
$1,000 o. R. e L. at S1O2 so.
On the board this morning 10 shares
Honokaa sold at 1875, after which
the same was bid and $1S .875 asked
for the stock.
Ten Olaa sold at S5.l25 and Is Nc
Bryde at So 625. Both of these stocks
are weak Olaa is offered at 81. 25
and McBryde at So. 625.
Also on the board 10 Onomea
changed hands at SAG, after which
S45 Is was bid and $46 SO asked for
the stock.

OPENING Of THE
HAMAKUA DITCH

Quite a large party will leave i'll
the Mauna Kea tomorrow for Hawai-
haze, and from thence will proceed
overland by automobiles, via the Ha-
makua ditch, to Mana, etc. The ex-
cursionists VIII be all business men,
and will be piloted by President Il.
w. Single, of the Waterhouse Trust
Company. They are going in adj
vance to make final arrangements
for the opening of the big ditch o.
July 1.
Others will leave here by the Maunl
Kea on June %, liking the same
route to the scene of operations
They will have an auto trip across
country some % or 80 miles, but will
reach the scene in time to see the
water come down the ditch for the
first time.
The Hamakua ditch is regarded IS
one of the most important enterprises
ever negotiated on the big island. 1t
traverses a fertile country and will
supply water to several of the most
important plantations of Hawaii. At
ter it is in full running order there
will be no such thing as a water pro-
blem in that locality in future, and
the cost of irrigation will be greatly
reduced.

THE FACTS ABOUT
OAHU SUGAR STOCK

For several days the depreciation
in the selling figures of Oahu Sugar
Company's stock has been the prin-
cipal talk i'm Honolulu. No one seems
to know the reason and it seems
equally hard to locate even CON
cause. The street talk is
that someone is systematically knock
ing-someone with influence and
power; and that the knocking" is
being done for a big purpose which
will show itself later
In connection with the matter the
following authentic figures may be
of interest:
Yield for 1910, 29.5OO (reliably es.
timated) tons. Last year the profit
on Oahu's yield was $25 per ton. This
year it should be IS per ton more. But
calling it the same-s25 per ton
and the profit for 1910 would be $737..
500.
The net credit balance with the
.agents is $4,000 and the amount re.
ceived from strike claims is $4,000
This makes a grand total of 1867,
500.
Now, then: Deduct IS per cent di
vidends, which is the present rate
amounting to $64S,OOO and you have a
credit balance at the end of this year
of $419,5OO, equal to nearly twelve
per cent! In other words, the plan
tation would have almost enough left
over to pay one per cent a month
next year if it did not clear a dol
lar during that period.
This all looks strange-but figures
tell the story. And yet Oahu stool
has been on the decline for weeks!

LONDON A BUYER
ON WALL STREET

NEW YORK, June 6.-Prices of
stocks broke violently to new
low levels for the year in the late
session of the stock exchange today,
after nervous and feverish fuctua-
lions up and down for the most of
the session. The break was coincid-
ent with the circulation of reports
that the railroad presidents, who have
gone to Washington to protest against
the governments action to enjOin
western trunk line freight rates, had
given up hope of securing any moditi-
cation of the intended course of the
law officers of the administration.
At one time the level had been lift
ed 1 to 2 points over the closing
level of Saturday quite generally.
London joined actively in the buying
as has been the case at most periods
of violent decline, and speculative
sentiment took on quite a cheerful
hue. The excessive dullness into
which the trading fell at the advance
argued an unwillingness on the part
! of the buyers to follow the rise and
indicated a weak undertone, but 1t
was hoped that the hesitation was
due simply to a desire to await the
outcome of the White House confer
ence.
During the time of advancing prices
there was a supposition entertained
that some sort of working agreement
had been arrived at between the rail
roads and the government authorities
for solution of the rate controversy
on lines which would relieve the an
xieties of railroad officials. The as
sertion of President Brown of the
New York Central was taken as a
text for this supposltIon to the effect
that the eastern railroads offered
more than a month ago to suspend
the new rates then under considera-
ton pending an investigation by the
commerce commission as to their rea
sonableness. This would be in con
formity with the requirement of the
new railroad law as it stands in it's
present form and would insure the
submission of the proposed changes
to the new law. 1t was even sug
gested that the new situation might
bring a change in the law in confer
ence between the houses of congress
which would permit agreement or
rates. the elimination of that provl
sion from the administration bill hav
ing prompted the action to enioin thu
new rates.
News of the crops and of none.
conditions was taken to account part
ly for the better tone of the earl,
dealings. Expressions of satisfaction
were heard from western banking au
thorities over the benefit to the ere
dit position which liquidation ha
been effecting in grain, cotton an
stocks.
