QUARANTINE TAX.

At meeting of importers held at the
Baldwin National Bank at Kahului,
Monday last, says the Maui News, it
was voted to reimpose the tax on all
importations from the mainland.
The quarantine fund was established
in October, 1904, by II. p. Baldwin,
representing the Maui Agricultural
Company and the II. G. & S. Co., and
their tributary stores; G. B. Wells, rep.
rescnting the Waikiki Plantation and
the importers at Wailuku; and the su-
perintendent of the Kahului Railroad
Company.
The tax was imposed to provide
fund which would be instantly avail
able for the purpose of combating any
epidemic of contagious disease which
might be introduced into the port from
abroad.
The tax was collected at the rate Of
ten cents per ton on all imports into
the port of Kahului, exclusive of lum-
Der, coal and nitrates, by the Kahului
Railroad Company, which is responsible
for the amount.
The tax covered importations by
mainland ports, but not importations
from Island ports.
The imposition of this tax ceased
on March 10, 1908, and at that time
the total amount of the quarantine
fund had reached the sum of $5252,0S.
This sum was divided into two portions:
One portion was deposited in the First
National Bank of Waikiki, the second
in the Baldwin National Bank of Ka.
hului, savings deposits drawing inter
est at four per cent. per annum.
The sum tota! ut the present time
available to be instantly drawn upon is
S5SS2. 10. inclusive of accrued interest
to December 81, 1910.
The trustees of the quarantine fund
consist, at the present time of J. N.
S. Williams, permanent chairman; H.
p. Baldwin, II. B. Penhallow, d. c.
Lindsay and C. d. Lufkin. II. B. Pen
hallow is secretary.
As the money at present available is
being used to combat the diphtheria
epidemic, the reimpostion if the ta5
is for the purpose of keeping the fund
up to the $4,000 mark.

REFUSE SETTLEMENT.

WASHINGTON, December 2s. - In
view of new evidence, the government
is likely to refuse the American Sugar
Refining Company's offer of 100000 in
settlement of the suits now pending
against the company 1t is felt that
to accept the settlement might be a

FINANCIAL REVIEW.

For week investors and stockhold.
er will be permitted a breathing spell
IN which to absorb the financial news
of the past week and begin to realize
that however the indications are that
this old world is about ready to come
to an end with the uncertainty as to
the future price of sugar, it still re-
mains fact that every day in the
year more people use more sugar and
will keep on getting the habit.
Among the sugar stocks the feature
of the week has been Oahu Sugar Com
pauy, and Wednesday 80 shares were
disposed Of in seven lots at %. This
stock has held steady at this figure
from start to finish and there are no
indications of weakness. Pioneer has
gone up again to 175, recovering
from decline to 40. While this
reaction is encouraging this stock has
MOI yet reached former heights, but
tAat is no indication that there is cause
for unloading in a hurry.
Reports from the sugar centers of
the mainland show somewhat of a
weakness, due to a number of cause;
one factor, undoubtedly, being the re-
ports regarding the immense beet sugar
crops of Europe and the States, An
other factor is that the Cuban sugar
crop is now being marketed, and until
this finds its place in the order of
things prices are inclined to fuctuate,
with a resultant weakness in depend
ant stocks
During the week the sales on the
local Stock Exchange Appropriated
$4,000 more than the week before, yet
in spite of the greater volume of bust,
ness the price show material tendency
to advance. In fact it is probable that
it will be some time before the same
level in prices for the giltedged securi'
ties will be seen again.
