CLAIMS TO Be HEIR
TO MILLIONS.

Sugartown, La, Sept. 24.-Mrs.I |.
A. Toller, living in a small cottage
near this town, expects to receive a
legacy of 100000 from the es-
tate of her father-in-law, M. ]. Bass.
ham, father of her first husband.
The elder Bassham died in his ma
tive State, Tennessee, in 1903, aged
80 years, and reputed to be n of
the multi-millionaires of that State.
Long litigation followed his death,
the estate being the cause, but Mrs.
Teller now believes that she will soon
obtain the 100000 she has been
seeking through lawyers in two States
Tennessee and Louisiana.
When young she married J. 4.
Bsssham and bore him five children,
one boy and four girls.
OTHER RELATIVES.
When death carried away Bassham
the widow was left without means,
the father following the son to the
grave. Other relatives of the multi
millionaire stepped in and are said to
have obtained control of his estate.
For several years she battled with
the world to support her children.
Her children were educated in her ma
tive State before she moved to Louis
lana, in 1904, and settled at Carson.
Two years previously she had married
a second time, her husband being j.
A. Toller, still living. Two children
followed the second marriage.
James Bassham, a son, is married
and lives near Sugartown. OF the
daughters, four are married. She has
three girls at home.
NUI "A 6UFFRAGEIIE.
Mrs. Toller is a Christian woman
and not a believer in women voting.
She is practical, charitable and her
many acts of true womanly kindness
have endeared her to all who know
her and they wish her happiness in
the future.
Born poor, she secured a good. edu-
cation. After she married Bassham
she lived a life of luxury, but after
his death and that Of his father she
again saw poverty, which she faced
with a determination to rear her five
children.
Lie was an uphill struggle for all
until she married Mr.. Teller, and, al
though he brought no wealth to the
family, its members have lived happily
in lowly circumstances.
Mrs. Toller has announced her
determination, if she gets the for
tune she expects, to locate in some
Western State and invest her money
in realty, and declares, although she
may again live amid plenty, she will
never forget the people who have
been eonsiderate to her in this section
and in her native State.

TOURING SEASON
Is NOW AT HAND
II. @. Harrison Tells Why Com.
ing One Will Be Greatest
in History of Motoring

H o. Harrison of the H. O. Harrison
company. which handles the Peerless
and Everitt cars, in discussing the au-
tomobile outlook at the present time,
said yesterday:
Some of the automobile trade have
been wondering whether the demand for
motor cars, which at the present time is
the greatest in the history of the in
dustry, will continue. From my obser-
vation, l feel that next year will ex-
ceed the present season as 1910 has
exceeded 1909 This will shortly be-
come evident when the touring season,
which is at hand, is really under way.
Il base my predictions on what |
know principally of the cars which nv
the present cars over previous models.
although what may be considered to be
slight are of such a nature that they
have greatly increased the pleasures of
touring, and this fact is appreciated far
more by the owner than the dealer, as
the former travels much farther on his
outings than business will allow the
dealer to enjoy. The result is that
many who have experienced fatigue in
greater or less degree will find this
season that they are able to motor prac-
tically any distance without any dis
comfiture..
The result is especially evident in
the higher grade cars, such as the
Peerless, it being one of the features
that the factory has considered es-
sential to perfection in a touring car"

MANILA INVESTIGATOR.

A. s. Coffin, a representative of Gas.
tie Bros, Wolfe & Sons, of Manila, ar
rived in the steamer Asia yesterday
from the Far East, with instructions
from his big house to inquire into the
pineapple proposition here, with a
view to securing shipments of the To-
cal product to Manila. 1t appears that.
although in the tropics, the pineapple
industry in the Philippines has made
no Roadway and the fruit has to be
imported Mr. Coffin seems to feel
that a considerable business in Ha-
waiian pines can be worked up there.
Local pineapples are talked about all
over the Orient and Philippines,
states Mr.. Coffin, and their reputation
will ensure for them a ready market.

CHEAP STOCKS ARE
STILL IN DEMAND

Cheap stocks are still in demand on
the streets and the indications are
that all of them will go higher. Olaa
is in constant demand, while inquiries
for McBryde this morning make it
appear certain that there will be in
teresting developments in that quar-
ter within a very few days. Homo
kaa is in lively demand and the ten.
dency is upward There are buyers
in plenty for the old-line stocks, al
though there have been no extraor-
binary advances in prices.
Between boards 300 shares Olaa
found a buyer at S. so, which was a
good purchase, as the stock opened at
So. 625 this morning. 10 and shares
selling at that figure. At the close
of the session So. so was bid and So. -
625 asked for the stock Between
boards a sale of 80 Honokaa was made
at 1913. On the board this morn
ing bidding was at $40 .625, but hold
ers were firm at $19. 1915.
A block of 20 Waialua sold at $780,
so, after which there seemed to be
slight sagging. as only $780,. 25 was
bid this morning, although 1881 was
asked.
Between boards 100 and rs EVA sold
at 1874 %, while 40, so and 35 sold this
morning at the same. At the close
of today's session $94.125 was bid and
$34 so asked for the stock.
A block of 10 Olaa sold at 1872 rs,
after which 1872 625 was bid and 1872. p
S75 asked.
A sale of 10 Hilo Railway was made
at $12 .25, which was shade higher
than the last previous transaction.

promising. A fungus attacking the
roots has interfered with the cultiva-
ton of the cane thought to be best
otherwise, suited to the soil, which
has been a considerable drawback;
and there seems to be an absence of
certain properties in the soil nearer
Olaa, condition which has not meant
well for the proper development of
the cane. Excellent chemists are
working upon these problems. how.
ever, and few days ago one of them
spoke most hopefully of the outlook
He seemed to feel certain that the
fungi would be mastered by the ex-
perts and that in his department Of
work the essential properties demand
ed by the soil would be restored to
it.
A great deal of criticism is to be
heard around Olaa and Hilo concern
ing the old methods in vogue on the
plantation; and the fact that contract
cane seems to present a healthier an
pearance than some fields worked by
the company would appear to substan-
tiate the complaint. However, this
is a subject having numerous rami-
fications, with argument on both
sides, and may be passed over with
the statement that whatever has
gone before, marked degree of
energy is now mnifest at Olaa work
seems to be along the right lines anG
the future will doubtless show bet
ter results than was promised by the
past.

JAPAN'S IMPORTS
ARE LIGHTER NOW

WASHINGTON, June 26.-Imports
to Japan from America and Europe in
the first three months of the year 1910
showed a marked decline over the
corresponding periods in 1908 and
1909, according to figures in posses
sion Of the Department of Commerce
and Labor. In the same period ia
pans imports from Asia and Oceania
increased. Japan's American i'm
ports fell from $14,666.OOO in the first
three months of 1908 to $7,000,0O0 in
the same period of this year, those
from Europe fell from $25 100000 in
the first quarter Of 1908 to $t6,25O, 900
in 1910. Japan's imports from Asia
and Oceania on the other hand, in
creased from $2S,OOOOO0 in the 1908
period to S33,OOO,OOO in the 1910 pc
riod
The falling off of American imports
is said to be due largely to the 'cot-
ton situation" Japan buying freely of
American cotton when prices are low,
but when prices are high Japan turns
to other parts of the world for cotton.

.OLAA PLANTATION,
PAST AND PRESENT

The questions have been frequently
asked in Honolulus Wall street in
the past few days What is behind
this boom in Olaa stock?" What was
the cause of it's beginning at this
time, what is keeping it up and where
and when will the squirt terminate?"
These are natural queries, and good
ones.
Nothing of an extraordinary char
acter has transpired to influence Olaa
stock one way or the other The
fact is that the stock has been selling
below it's actual value for quite a
while. Stock having a par value Of
$40 and selling at $3.50 to So rs
would appear to offer chance in any
circumstances; and Olaa, as a bust
ness proposition, is not half bad.
In his last annual report the man.
ager of, Olaa plantation said: with
much larger crops in sight, costing
less to raise, and with decreased in
terest charges consequent upon tho
consolidation of the company's debts
in the new bond issue, the outlook for
the plantation is more promising than
it has been for many years"
That is the situation in a nutshell.
The output of the estate last year was
1919 tons of sugar and sometime ago
the manager estimated the crop of
1910 at 10000 tons It is now CON
coded by men at the plantation, and
in position to Judge, that the latter
figures are too low, and that the yield
this year will be nearer $4,000 tons
than the figures given.
The Puma lands of the Olaa Sugar
Company are admittedly very fine
and the crops to come from there are
