NORTHWEST TAKES
BIC PINE SHIPMENTS
Benefits Being Reaped From the
AIaska-Yukon Exhibit
From Hawaii.

Trade between the Hawaiian Islands
and Puget Sound is increasing by leaps
and bounds according to loading Stats
ties obtained from Castle & Cooke,
agents for the Matson Navigation Com
pany, the company having shipments
of canned pineapples from various is
lands aggregating nearly $4,000 cases,
all consigned to Seattle as a distribut-
ing point. Heretofore, most of the
canned pineapple shipments have been
made direct to San Francisco, from
which distributions were made. The
demand for the Hawaiian pineapple in
the Northwest, following the reputation
it made for itself at the Seattle ex-
position a year ago, has been steadily
increasing.
The Matson freighter Nevadan which
leaves tonight for Kahului has loaded
| in $4,000 cases of canned pines. Al
Kahului between three and four thou
sand cases will be loaded and at Kauai
5000 more will be taken on.
The Nevadan is taking very small
amount of sugar this trip, comprising
the clean up for the season. From
here the vessel is taking go tons OF
raw sugar. At Kahului the NevadaT
will discharge 800 tons of freight from
the Coast, $50 at Kaanapali and 16S
tons at Hilo and 365 tons at Fort
i Allen The Nevadan is making a gen
eral tour of the Islands this trip. She
goes first to Kahului, then to Kama
pail. then to Hilo, then to Port Allen
sailing direct TO San Francisco from
the latter port ON October 4.
Even the Lurline, which is due today
from san Francisco, will take on {
big load Of canned pineapples, but thes,
shipments are for San Francisco. Sh,
will take ON 5000 eases of canned pine
at Kahului, as well as 1000 tons o.
molasses in bulk, which win be pumped
into the Lurline's empty tanks. Tht
Lurlne will get $4,000 cases of pine
at this port and about 400 tons o.
! sugar.
The vessel sails from Honolulu 70
San Francisco at six o'clock on tn
afternoon of next Tuesday, October A
carrying about thirty passengers. Sh
will be laid up one trip at San Fran
cisco TO undergo alterations which vii
about double her passenger capacity
and the Hilonian win take her regula
run, so that no trip ON the Matsoi
schedule will be omitted.

COTTON GROWER
POINTS OUT A
WAY TO WEALTH

Whoever will invent mechanical
cotton picker can pick up fortune
any time, says A. W. Van Valkenburg,
who is in the cotton growing business
deeper than any one else In Oahu.
The cotton which is being grown on
his plantation in the Eva district, is
now growing extremely bushy, and the
cotton balls are showing up in fine con.
dition. Seventy acres have already
been planted in cotton and large ad-
ditional area is to be added.
Corn is to be planted there also.
Mr., Van Valkenbnrg deplores the fact
that he was not ready with his planting
before the present rainy season set in
as the crop would have hal a good
start. The unusual rainfall caught
most every one in the planting class
unawares.
Mr. Van Valkenburg wants an i'm
provement over his present small cotton
gin and has his eye on a machine which
is being used in Japan. From all de
scriptions given of this machine, Mr.
Van Valkenburg believes it will be best
adapted to the Caravonica cotton being
grown in the Islands.
Also would like to get mechan
zeal picker,' he said ''If any on'
can produce such picker his fortune
is made. -

CARTER RUNS
OVER A MAN
Ex-Governor's Auto Hits Subject
Of King George the
Fifth.

Ex-Governor George R. Carter,
George the Strenuous, has had an
exciting trip over Europe and Asia,
but it remained for his visit to London
to bring about the climax.
Mr.. Carter is touring the continent
and England in one OF his autos, but
just which one is hard to say, for
George may have had two new ma
chimes since he left Honolulu, and may
arrive here after the Christmas holt
days with brand new French machine,
for he has always set the pace in hav-
ing something new in the auto line.
In London while travelling one of the
busy streets the ex-governor unfor-
tunately ran man down. The latter
was not hurt, but the ex-governor
stopped and gave aid to the injured
Londoner.
1t is presumed that Mr.. Carter went
poste haste to Saratoga yesterday on
receipt of the news that his friend,
ex-President Roosevelt had scored a
victory over the Old Guard. Roose-
welt is much the same type of strenu-
osity as the former governor of Ha-
wall, and is said to pattern much after
the Honolulan.

TIRED OF LIFE
BUT CAN'T DIE
Girl Swallows Pain Killer But
Lives to Regret the
Occurrence.
tFrom wednesday,s Advcrtiser. }

A quarrel with her mother and
brother was sufficient cause to quit this
earthly life in the estimation of Helen
Peterson, who last night attempted to
end hers by the poison route. Being
unsuccessful in her choice of poison,
she still lives, somewhat the worse for
her experience.
An argument with her mother start
ed her over route that led her along
the main streets and the drug stores
TO the Aloha Ice Cream ParlOr ON Bere'
tania avenue which she had picked out
as the setting for her sudden demise.
After more or less heated argument
with her mother earlier in the evening
the latter finally ordered her to leave
the room and, upon her refusal, told
her to leave the house and never enter
it again-or at least so says Helen.
Instead of leaving the house she
went into her brother S room and took
his revolver. just as she was about to
shoot herself, the owner of the gun
came in and took away her means OF
destruction, after which she obeyed her
mother command and left the prem
ises.
She made tour of the neighborhood
saying goodbye to her friends and ac'
Jlsaintances and then made the rounds
Of the drug stores trying to get some
sarbolic acid. They refused to sell il
10 her and she finally bought a bottl'
Of pain killer as a last resort.
She then went to che Aloha parloi
opposite the central FIRE station wher'
she bid goodbye to Gussie Marks, an
other friend Miss Marks, naturally in
auired the reason for the sad parting
and was told the whole story. Instead
Of sympathizing with her and helpinl
her off to the Elysian fields she scream
ed and called a Japanese woman.
Just as she did so, Helen put hersel
outside of the pain killer.
While the Mortified attendants watched
her, she rolled upon the floor crying
that she was burning, a physician com
ing in at the time aud rendering frs
aid by putting the fire out. Specia
Officer Oleson brought her To tn
Queen Hospital in hack where tn
attending physicians felt her pulse an
sent her Off TO bed to behave herself

has been some of this done during the

however, changed hands at the prevail
ing market price of 600 and would
have had no effect one way or the Other

CABINET MUCKRAKE
TO STIR ALASKA
President Taft Calls Special
Meetings to Investigate
Corruption.

BEVERLY, Massachusetts,, Septem-
Der l3.-The oft-repeated report that
corruption of government officials has
been widespread in Alaska and that
the Guggenheim interests have been
liable to influence some officeholders in
that Trritory will be sifted thoroughly
at the special cabinet meetings, which
President Taft has called for the latter
part of this month in Washington. De-
tailed reports on the Alaskan situation
will be made to Taft, and the full
membership of the cabinet by Attorney
General Wickersham and Secretary OF
Commerce and Labor Nagel, who were
sent to Alaska by Taft early in the
summer to look into the accusations of
Irregularities.
ST. PAUL, Minnesota, September 10.
"A recommendation that the admins
| tration of Alaska, especially the judi
ciary, be better unified, and that the
power of the government be eentered
in one spot, will be made to President
Taft by Attorney General Wickersham
who passed through st. Paul today
after making 6000,mile tour of in
spection of Alaska.
With Wickersham on the Alaskan
tour was the secretary of commerce
and labor, Charles Nagel; their secre
taries, Frank Cole and Herbert A
) Stevens, respectively, and two nephewi
} of Nagel.
Secretary Nagel left Wickersham OF
the west coast He will join the attor
ney general in Chicago tomorrow fol
: the iournty to Washington.
"What seems to be needed in Alaska
more than anything else,' said Wick
/, ersham, is the placing of some powei
in one spot, where general oversight
may be had regarding Alaska as :
whole and where regulations applicable
to one part of the Territory may b,
{ intelligently modified when they ar
! found to be inapplicable to anothe

terday was greatly below the last pre-
vious sales as was the asked priced in
most cases, few takers being found at
the latter
The sudden slump preceded by the
steady decline is explained by three
reasons, two of them more or less re-
lated.
First-Uncertain political situation
in Hawaii.
second-Increased beet sugar crop in
Europe.
Third-Decreased quotations on SUI
gar.
The first, has without doubt, had
! the greatest influence ON the market,
! as it involves questions most vital to
territorial industry and consequently to
the financial world. The anti-immigra-
tion plank in the Democratic platform,
placed there to please Lincoln McCand-
less against the adverse wishes of the
majority of the Democrats is the one
element in the campaign which is re-
sponsible for most of the present
troubled state of affairs.
Stock brokers have been watching
anxiously the labor situation and even
under the prevailing system which per
uiits the utilization of the benefits of
assisted immigration, the extent OF
visible opportunities have influenced
the market. With assisted immigration
taken away this source of speculation
is also disposed of altogether but this
move could do nothing except result in
"A heavy discounting on all stocks
bringing them to far lower norma
price levels.
The second reason can hardly be con
sidered seriously as an influence which
can have anything but temporary
bearing on sugar quotations, Should
the effect of the large European croT
be discounted on sugar stocks, the lat
ter are almost certain to find them
selves undervalued at the opening OF
the next campaign on the plantations
The announcement of the bumper croI
obscures for the moment the fact that
the consumption of sugar is increasing
at enormous bounds, with nation'
adopting it that previously never look
led upon it. The consumption per per

ACQUIRES FAMOUS CLAIMS.

Three or four of the most famous
placer mining groups in California have
been secured by option by local bust
ness man, they including the American,
Grey Eagle and the Little and Big
Pheasant Bars on theAmerican River.
Concerning these claims, which, owing
to their immense wealth, were limited
to twenty-five feet each, the govern.
ment figures estimated the amount of
gold taken from them at several mil.
lions.
There is a move on at present to de.
feet the current of the American River
The Hawaiian gazette., 1910-09-30

in such manner that it will itself
sluice the gold from sand from its
deeper pools. While the bars have been
worked clean, the bed OF the river is
as virgin as ever. The manager Of a
nearby property estimates that one mill
lion dollars could be taken out in two
eleanups, and John Jorgenson, who has
visited the property, is said to have
stated that it could be taken out in
three.
The entire interest in the property.
as represented in the option, is held
locally. and it is possible that local

plans outlined. There is an immense

The third reason is, of course, more
worthy of consideration, for sugar that
sold at 4.40 during the year has its
effects on all markets when il drops to
4.27. Whether this figure becomes the
normal price level or not, however; it
does NOT pOrtend overproduction or any
glutted market. If any slump follows
the diseounting of this price from
present stock values, it but goes TO
