One of the most significant incidents
of the sugar stock market this week
was the announcement Of an extra five
per cent dividend to be paid the stock
holders of Hawaiian Agricultural
Company this month.
Judging from the talk of the street
and the downward trend of stock quo
tations all dividends would be sus-
pended next year and II any OF the
real good plantations had any surplus
they should carry 1t over TO meet
emergencies in the coming year. That
has been the atmosphere for the past
few weeks.
In the midst OF this the directors OF
a plantation that is subject to marked
vicissitudes of weather AS well as all
the other numerous ills that threaten
the sugar industry-labor and reduc.
ton of the tariff, etc, etc.-decide to
pay out large lump Of their surplus
Certainly they would not do this II the
price of sugar was expected to drop &c
extremely low figures, and the tarih

cts would have us think.
