WOOLLEy TALKS
ON PROHIBITION

"The chief argument on behalf OF
the liquor dealers seems TO be that
am meddlng with things that are
none of my business" said John G
Woolley at the Kawaiahao church
yesterday.
"There are these men with me here,
your pastor, the Honorable Fred
Beckley and the Rev. Stephen Desha-
who knowing me well and knowing my
work unc my purpose, have invited me
TO ADDRESS you and are helping me to
do so. Are they the enemies of the
Hawaiian people? Are they the kind
of men that choose their friends from
among the enemies OF the Hawaiian
people?
Another piece of claptrap is that
this is a missionary scheme to rob the
poor man of drink and leave the lich
unchecked The argument has not even
the pretense of honesty. As the fed
oral law stands, no State or Territory
can prevent a man buying the liquor
he considers necessary for himself, and
the poor man has precisely the same
sFtanding in that respect as the rich
What is proposed is not to lay the
hand of law upon people ana prevent
their taking liquor, but simply to give
hem protection against the tempta-
ton from the open liquor traffic N
their midst"
The church was crowded to hear Mr..
Woolley speak, his works making a
deep impression.

The fight is referred TO as filthy,

ST. PETERSBURG, May 23-It is
understood here that an agreement
has been reached between the govern
rnents of Japan and Russia regarding
affairs in the Far East The diplo-
mats CT the two governments which
were recently at war are said to have
arrived at a complete understanding
regarding spheres of influence and
rights in railway enterprises.
WASHINGTON, May 23.-The re-
port from st. Petersburg of an I'M
Outstanding between the Japanese
and Russian governments is regarded
as marking a vital step in the adjust
ment of international relations in
Manchuria, and bearing upon the pro-
posed AmeTican-Chinese railway in
Manchuria. Japan recently gave her
assent to the construction of this road,
while Russia objected. Japan's as
sent is said to have been a result Of
the influence of her ally, Great
Britain
The Picking government gave its
cordial approval of the plans for the
road and claims that Russia has no.
thing to do with it. The proposed
road parallels the Japanese road and
would make the shortest railroad
route from Europe to Picking. It's pro-
iectors anticipated opposition from
both Japan and Russia.
Negotiations for the railroad were
opened some time ago by an Ameri-
can syndicate and the plan was imme-
diately approved by the Chinese gov
eminent.

IRON PRODUCTION CUT DOWN
IAssociated Pressl

NEW YORK, May 5.-Today's stock
market showed decreases in the influ-
ence of the reports of sales of large
issues OF American securities abroad,
which electrified the market yesterday.
Various consi derations entered into
the moderating of this influence.
The market closed buoyant with re-
stored confidence. There was appre-
hension at first that yesterdays re-
ports might have been exaggerated in
several particulars.
AS to the amount of the sales. some
of the estimates which alleged an
amount we'll over a hundred million
strained credulity. Late confirmation
of the st. Paul bond sale animated the
whole market. One reason for with
holding confirmation was that an
nouncements had been premature, leav-
ing the closing up of negotiations In
complete Another modifying factor
was the absence of knowledge of the
terms on which the sales were being
made. Broad ntimations that attrac-
tive prices were necessary in order to
enlist the buying of foreign bankers
left open the problem of the final eff
feet of the transaction on existing is
sues and their current prices.
MAY ONLY BE LOANS
An impression got around also that
loans with the new securities as col
lateral rather than outright sales
would be found involved in some OF
the reported operations. A still more
potent modifying factor was the ex-
tent to which the rapid rise in prices
yesterday and at the opening today
was discounting the favorable effect
of the bond sales to foreigners.
The strong return of the Bank of
England demonstrated the effective re-
af 7 nOgi-
ton and its incomplete readiness for
the government fiscal operations for
which it was prepared. New York
bankers maintain an attitude of some
reserve regarding the outlook Tor
money on account of the extended con-
dition of banks through the country.
IRON DEMAND WEAK
qualification OF statistics of the rate
at which pig iron production is being
cut down proved a curb on speculative
enthusiasm. The effect was not i'm
mediately perceptible on United States
Steel but was a contributory influence
to the weakness of the copper in con-
trast with the strength of the general
list. The sustained production OF cop
per in spite of the insufficient demand
to absorb stocks awakens insistent dis
cussion of the necessity of reducing
output.
United States Steel was affected by
renewed discussion of the old project
to list the stock on the Paris 'bourse.
The report that National railways or
Mexico second preferred had been so
listed served to hand the discussion on.
Advances in passenger rates on some
of the eastern railroads supplement the
effect of the notices of higher freight
rates
Bonds were irregular. Total sales.

bonds were unchanged on call.
