she fully justified the trust that was
reposed In her and Captain Wilder

Prince Cupid looked the real thing as
he leaned over the rail and waved TO

brought alongside OF the Alakea street

had come along at a twelve-day rate
of speed up till Thursday last, when

STOCK DIVIDEND HAS
CONFUSED SHAREHOLDERS

In spite OF the publicity given tho ac-
tion OF the Uncle Sam Consolidated
company in distributing the 100000
shares Of May Day stock long held In
its treasury. many stockholders OF the
Uncle Sam company have failed TO
grasp the situation, One stockholdcr got
the idea that this May Day stock was
given him in exchange for his Uncle
Sam holdings, and he has naturally
grown warm beneath the collar at being
forced. as he secs it, to giving UP a divi-
dcnd-p paying stock for one on which as
sessments are being levied.
The facts are that the Uncle Sam COM
pany received this May Day stock in
payment for certain property rights at
Tintic, The May Day company has de-
termined on doing some extensive deep
development, which nccessltates the levy
ing of assessments until results are OBJ
tained to allow the May Day company
to proceed Hithout this financial assist
ance. The Uncle Sam company did not
feel able financially TO meet these assess
ments, so it was decided 10 give the
stock to Uncle Sam stockholders. The
Uncle sam stockholders, therefore, get
the stock for nothing; they can sell 1t or
keep IT, Just as they please. They arc
asked to surrender no Uncle Sam rights
whatever.

INDIA BUYING SILVER,
CHINA CEASES SELLING

The silver market has ruled somewhat
firmer during the past week, prices show
ing n slight advance as compared with
those prevailing heretofore, The trmer
tendency Is attributed 10 the cessation
OF selling by China and TO purchases by
India The latter has been a buyer OF
the metal for current needs, but has
not as yet increased Its stocks TO any
material extent.
The result OF the cessation of the SELL
ing of silver by China Is reflected in an
increase in the stock of the metal at
Shanghai in the week ended June is. Ac-
cording to cable advices received by the

morning, the supply OF silver at Shang-

OUTPUT OF COPPER
STILL THE QUESTION
Some Believe That Agreement
Must Be Reached Between
Big Interests.

Evidence is accommodating pretty fast
that the present increased production of
copper With the certainty OF even great
Ell supplies being available during tho
next year or two is the governor indi
eating the purchasing power Of tho con-
sumner, a circular issued by the Ma
tional Conduit and Cable company
states that business during the past six
months has been in a fairly healthy and
satisfactory condition. The domestic
consumption Of copper now is large, with
the prospects of still greater increases
from now on,
But still the shadow OF excess produc-
ton hangs over The situation, and causes
the consumer TO believe that there is no
need Tor him TO lay in his stocks. as OF
copper. or OF the price lowering even
above that figure. there being little prob
ability, so they think. Of any very wide
fluctuations for considerable time To
come,
How near the eastern authority who
is quoted as follows in the cast Is cor
rect remains TO be seen:
The mines OF this country. Canada
and Mexico are in position TO produce
40 100000 pounds OF copper month In
other words. the productive capacity of
the country at present is even much lar
ger than the recent figures issued by the
copper Producers association indicate.
While / do not anticipate a heavy falling
off In the output Of the country's mines
in the last half OF this year, stil / do
not look for heavy increase. II there
is a revival in business before the close
OF the year, l look for consumption In
this country and Europe to exceed the
output, To say the copper industry Is
in bad shape would be wrong The in
dustry is all right so far as consumption
is concerned, The trouble lies I'm the fact
that producers are not working In har-
nony In the matter OF output. But l
am confident they are beginning to see
the error OF their WAYS. and that before
great while we VIII witness an output
more In harmony with consumption and
stocks on hand
