Dear Daddy JIM am a West
Texas boy, twelve years old. My
grandpa calls me Globe Spilkins,"

ment is doing, and he knows the JEFF
fersOnians will tell us. I am in the
sixth grade.-Walton Whitaker, Rt.

MANY LARGE SALES ON
TREAGHEROUS MARKET

There were several real, live scusa-
tions on the Stock Exchange this
morning First in immediate interest
was the arrival of news from San
Francisco of a tremendous slump i'm
Hawaiian Commercial. A sale Of 40
shares had already been made be-
tween boards at S3S %, but the coast
adyices cut the ground from under the
stock and 80, % and 10 shares sold at
$50. Even at that the market was not
solid, for at the close Of the session
more stock was offered at the same
price. 1t is very evident that the
local panicky feeling of a week or two
ago has just struck San Francisco,
and, not being so well understood over
there, caused a great rush to sell la.

The second feature OF the day was a
perfect flood of transactions i'm Oahu.
1t is said that the sellers, as a rule,
are shifting into Pioneer but if this
rumor be true there are as yet no evil

were sales of 500, 100, 75, 25, 20, 90,

to be stronger. A number of sales
Of it supplied the third sensation Of
the day. The last previous sale Of
this stock ha dbeen at $1I, although
yesterday it was $14. so bid and $14.75
asked. Between boards 100 shares
sold at S14.375. On the board this
morning, however, there was quite
renewal of strength, %, 100, 100, 100
and 100 shares selling at $14.75, fol-
lowed by 100 at $14 625. At the close

Pioneer offered the fourth reason
for exceptional interest in stocks this
morning, the stock arriving more or
less firmly at 1920 again, $14 shares
selling at that figure. At the close
this morning bidding was at S21S, but
holders were demanding 1920.
Eva alone seemed to be a little weak,
due doubtless to it being an Eek

gar market A sale of 10 shares was
made at $31 25, after which $50 50
was bid and $31 25 asked.
While spurts of the kind above in
Dictated are liable to recur from time
to time in the next sixty to ninety
days, it need not surprise anybody
should there be a decline all along the
line in stock prices in the very near
future. The depressing effect of the
heavy beet crop is but a forerunner
of what will happen when the unusual
ly large Cuban output is thrown upon
the market; and even the prophets of
five cents sugar of few months ago
are probably now ready to admit the
danger of sugar falling to the remark
ably low level of 3 so to 3 60 before
the year is out. This opinion is not
advanced haphazard 1t is supported
by the worlds Supply and demand"
conditions, present and future; and is
the secret of the tremendous drop in

Francisco.

TO HARVEY-ELDER

A tribute to Churchill Harvey-Eldei
who was killed in the Los Angeles
Times explosion
Some times in life we meet a man
And shake him by the hand
We call him pal" and mean it
Yet we don't quite understand
The reason why it seems as though
We'd met in days of yore
But hearts speak silent languages
Their thoughts have met before.
Twas just that way with you old pal
Your whole soul seemed to smile
You We're the first TO welcome us
TO Gods own little isle"
Your memory stands a monument
To Friendship ana good cheer
And everything seemed brighter
When you, old pal, were near
The s,orles you have written
VIII perpetuate your name
The friends you left behind you
VIII forever sing your fame
Words cannot tell the grief we feel
But peaceful may you rest
Old pal, you're not forgotten
In these ISLANDS of the blest"
One last salute, one fond good bye
Old comrade Of the pen
TO you, ONE GRAND ALOHA"
Until we meet again.
Charles e, Royal, of the McRae
Company.

CANNON KNOCKED OUT GAVE BIG PRESENTS
NEW YORK LEGISLATURE FAVORED
FIRE INSURANCE MEN.
Populations Covering Period of Years
Gradually Being Brought to Light.

New 1ork.-Mercilessly hurting ques-
ton on question at reluctant witnesses
and reading to them in rapid succession
letters and kilograms that told i'll IN
m~istakable terms of the activities of
fire insurance companies in influencing
legislation at Albany, William Hotchkiss,
state superintendent of insurance, anG
his attorney, Alfred Hurrell, forced start
ling revelations at tOdays session of the
fire insurance inquiry.
1t was shown that large sums of mon
ely had been raised to procure or thwart
legislation between 800 and 1906.
These payments, the majority of which
were to law firms, ranged from 500 to
$1,000. The three largest payments
were of $1,000 to the law firm of Sher-
man & Sterling, in 1905, for work at Al
bany in connection with legislation then
pending; of $4,000, in 1906, for the
came purpose, and of $S,311 to Elijah
r. Kennedy, member of the insurance
firm of Weed & Kennedy.
One interesting statement made by Mr..
Kennedy was that he had given a pres
ent" of $1,000 to George w. Aldridge OF
Rochester, Republican leader of Monroe
county. This item was part of the So
900 officially disallowed by the under,
writer's, but later reimbursed to Kennedy
by assessments levied on the insurance
companies individually. Kennedy said
yesterday Aldridge got $500, but today
corrected his testimony.
Every effort to force Kennedy to tell
who received the remainder of the So
900 was futile.
1t was through the testimony of Case
that the payments $17,5OO and $4,000

New York, March 21.-Arthur F.. Zim-

ances with t~itIe-loving women of means"
was sentenced in the Brooklyn county
court to from four years and eight

Judge Dixie, in imposing sentence,

married twenty-four women since 1872.

Uncle Sam Against clipping"

Washington.-Long suffering Uncle
Sam rebelled today against the tipping
system. The reform is due 20 the fact
that the walters in the senate restau-
rants are now government employees, be
ing paid out of the contingent fund Of
the senate. This was found necessary
because it had become impossible to find
anyone willing to operate the restaurant,
all who have had it declaring it to be a
losing venture. The senators cannot see
how such can be the case. as double
prices for viands are charged and the
caterer has no rent to pay.

INVITES COALITION TO DECLARE
SPEAKERSHIP VACANT.
Democrats Accept Defi-Their Resolution
Vacating the Speakership Voted
Down Amid Wild Scenes.

Washington.-Speaker Joseph G. Can
non as a political entity, and Cannonisn
as exemplified by the speaker, were
ground to pieces in a revolution in the
house of representatives Saturday.
By a vote of 191 to 155 the allied in
surgent Republicans and the Democrats
ousted him from the committee on rules,
through which he had welded his great
est power, and enlarged that committee
from five to ten members.
BY the same vote reversed-155 to 191
the house, however, declined to take
the speakers chair away from Mr.. Can
non.
Not only were Cannon and his staunch
supporters Outvoted, but they were out
generated and ~outfOught. And not only
were they given the most humiliating re-
pudiation that any leaders of the house
have ever suffered, but they were made
to taste the bitter medicine they have
so often administered when they had the
party lash and the fear of party eXcom-
munication to help them to achieve ruth
less victory.
For the speaker himself, though he
died, as he often said he would when his
time came, with his boots on" he had
the courage, the audacity, or whatever
it may be called, to retort to the vote
that discredited and repudiated him with
a defiance of those who had crushed him
and literally dared them to follow up
their victory and throw him out of the
speakers chair.
Also the speakers old guard fought
with equal bravado to the end. Braeed
by the speaker himself, they made the
best showing possible under the heart
breaking circumstances, and when the
speaker uttered his tinal words to his
enemies, they stood up and cheered him
as though they had won the great battle
of their lives, instead of having lost that
battle.
1t was a history-making session of the
house that brought about the defeat of
Cannon. Its like was never beheId be-
fore; none of those who roOk part in the
fight remember the occasion or an Occa-
sion that approached that of Saturday
in Importance. And no session of this
generation of legislators approached it,
either in the intense excitement, the wild
disorder, the bitterness of feeling or the
intense partisanship that was displayed.
