STILL BOOKING
FOR THE TRIP

Twelve more passengers booked
yesterday for the trip to the volcano
by the Mauna Kea leaving here on the
evening of December 80. This is a
sign there will be jolly crowd go
TO the crater to watch the old year
out. And there will be a good time
all along the line. The dinner at
the hotel on New Years day will be
something extra for be it remembered
Demosthenes has his own garden, his
chicken and turkey yards and
piggery that provides the best of meats
for the Volcano House table. Indi-
cations point to a season of good
weather and it will be brisk enough
at the crater to remind the back
casters of home. There should be a
number of sojourners in Honolulu take
this trip because of the price. Thirty
dollars for a chance to see the great
est active volcano, the sum paying all
expenses from Honolulu to the crater
and return, is one that should not
deter any from going. This same trip
costs at other times fifteen dollars
more than that amount. There are
a number of good rooms left on the
steamer and persons who intend go
ing should book without delay. Call
up Mr. White of the passenger de-
partment Inter Island Steamship COM
rany's Office, Queen street.

bling houses steadily The cotton
goods and cotton yarn markets are
hampered by the difficulty of getting
prices commensurate with high cot
ton costs and. curtailment therefore
continues.
While there has been some i'm
provement. of the shoe trade, business
is still considerable below normal for
this season of the year. Prices on
footwear are not strong, but no con-
cessions are reported, as values are
already low, considering the cost Of
production.

Snow or rain, followed by cold wea-
Their throughout considerable areas,
have tended to stimulate sales of win
ter goods and wearing apparel, while
the approach of the holidays has
helped business in specialties adapted
to that season. Jobbers and whole
salers catering to this class of bust
less have apparently done well as a
whole, replenishing of broken stocks
giving slight impetus to trade. in
seasonable goods. In regular whole
sale trade the approach of the in
ventory season made more quietness
and spring buying in general Is re-
ported of rather light volume, con-
servatism still ruling trade for dis
tant dates.

DUFOUR, ON STAND,
ATTEMPTS TO EXPLAIN
He Admits Selling Guaranteed
Securities Only on Two
Occasions.

Everett Dufour withStood we'll the
rapid fire cross examination of United
States Attorney Wilson at the trial today
of Huston. Lewis and Dufour for alleged
conspiracy. before Justice Wright and
jury in Criminal Court No. /.
He offered what appeared plausible ex-
plantations for many entanglements with
which the testimony for the prosecution
abounts. He appeared cool and collected,
and never lost his composure.
In attempting to explain away his con-
nection with the Mutual Securities Com
pany of Baltimore Dufour stated that
he had been given 5000 by Messrs White
and Pierce with which to run the office.
He saw them from time to time in Balti-
more in connection with the business and
furnished them with the names of all COR
respondents. sending such lists to No. 20
Broad street New York. This, he said,
was the address given him by the men
named.
AS soon as the Indictment was found.
two men. Although he made several
trips to New York he did not learn
of their whereabouts, nor has he been
able since to find them.
Mr.. Wilson asked the witness if he
had worked, from November, 1908, to
May. 1909, without receiving his month
ly salary Of $500. which he claimed
was the salary agreed on. Dufour
answered that he had worked for the
company only three months-November,
December and January-after which, he
said. he suffered from appendicitis, was
unable to attend to the business and
was compelled to sail to Europe.
When he returned from his European
trip. the witness said, he wrote several
letters to Mr.. White, who expressed by
return mail his dissatisfaction with the
service Of witness and refused to pay
81 500 demanded. Dufour said he closed
the Office in Baltimore and returned to
Washington.
Before his employment by them Du-
four said he had no acquaintance with
White and Pierce. Yet they were seen In
his Office by others whom he named.
Mr. Wilson forced the witness to ad-
NIT that he had sold guaranteed stock in
but two instances. whereas he had adj
vertised and written letters to many COR
respondents that he had met with great
success In the sale of such securities.
On the request of Mr.. Wilson for the
names Of the two parties to whom he
had made sale Dufour was unable to re-
call the names.
