.GUNST IS HEAVY
BUYERS IN FRISCO

M. A. Gunst, who owns cigar
store at Fort and King streets in this
city, has purchased another valuable
piece of property on Market street, in
San Francisco. The Examiner says
of the deal:
Harrigan, Weidenmuller &c Rosen-
stirn announce the sale of the Home
Telephone Company's property on the
south side of Market street, 200 feet
west of Sixth street, 25X165, with an
l. 25X90 feet on Stevenson street, to
Nj. A. Gunst., of the firm of NJ. A.
Gunst e Co., cigar manufacturers. Mr..
Gunst, upon acquiring title to this
property, will Immediately start the
erection of a building which will bring
his total investment up to about $780,
600.
This property was originally pur
chased after the fire by the Home
Telephone Company to be used as a
telephone exchange, but after pur-
chasing the property they decided to
locate their main office building on
Grant avenue, between Bush and SUIT
ter. Mr.. Gunst believes in the future
of San Francisco, and he is now the
owner of the siX-story and basement
class "a building on Third and Mis-
sion streets, and is also owner of the
.seven-story class "a" building on the
southwest corner of Geary and Powell
streets, opposite the st. Francis hotel,
which is known as the Elkan Gunst
building The proposed building on
his Market street holding, when COM
pleted, will be known as the Van
Dyke building.
Mr. Gunst has just returned from
tour of the United States, looking af-
ter his chain of stores, and when he
got to San Francisco he decided to in
vest more money in realty. The price
paid for the Market street lot is be-
lieved to be in the neighborhood of
100000.

PROMOTERS AND
ROUTINE MATTERS

Most of the time of the Promotion
Committee at Thursday afternoons
meeting was taken up with routine
business. There was a large amount
of correspondence that had to be
gone through-some of the letters be-
ing from H. P. Wood, at Atlantic City,
and others from different sections of
the field.
Mr.. Wood reported that the Atlantic
City bazaar wah still not a bowling
success, from a financial viewpoint,
the shortage in business being due to
the very bad weather which had pre-
vented the usual gathering of people
at the famous resort. AS the warm
season is now on, however, and there
were promises of fair days, it was ex-
pected that the receipts would hence
forth be much larger Anyhow, the
bazaar has paid expenses up to date,
and the outlook for running consider
ably ahead is still good.
In regard to the singing boys, Mr..
Wood reported that the present bunch
would probably be brought home in
the near future, but that this would
work no hardship as there were quite
a number Of Hawaiian singers hang
ing around New York whose services
could easily be procured
The committee discussed again
the matter of putting up expenses
for visit from the editorial asso-
citation, but as the Chamber of Com
merce has hedged on the proposition
it is not clear where the committees
wherewithal would come from
should it decide to undertake the
expense.

STATES COMMERCE
OURNING MONTH
OF MAY.

Leading commodity movements in
the domestic field during May, as re-
ported to the Bureau of Statistics of
the Department of Commerce and La
Dor, in several instances present q
mere favorable picture of trade acti-
witty than for the previous month
This is true especially. of the lumber
movement shows the customary sea-
sonal light volume. The demand for
cotton and wool was affected unfavor-
ably by the actual and proposed cur
tailment of operations in the textile
mihs. The volume of building opera
lions shows a considerable ch6GS,
mainly in the largest cities. The traf-
fic activity of the railroads was rather
light, the number of idle cars show
ing a steady increase since the begin
ming of the year.
Livestock receipts during May at
seven interior primary markets, e.
667 1858 head, show a considerable in
crease over the abnormally low fig.
ures of the preceding month, though
falling below the corresponding May
1909 and 1908, figures of 2,S96,767 and
1882, 066 head. OF the total reported
551 ,072 head were cattle, 100,17S head
calves, 1,3S4,16S head hogs, Gil 1897
head sheep, and 1888 head horses
and mules. The gain over the April
figures is due chiefly to the heavier re
ceipts of hogs, which were, however
10 per cent and 20 per cent below the
corresponding receipts of 1909 and
1908. Combined livestock receipts for
the first five months of the year, fell 1G
per cent below the corresponding 1908
and "a per cent below the 1908 fig.
ures. 1t is notable that, while the re-
ceipts of hogs for the first five months
of the present year show decline OF
81 per cent, as compared with cor
responding 1909 figures, those of cat
tie vary but slightly; those recorded

A couple of directors of Pionee
Mill returned yesterday from Lahain;
after having a good look over the
plantation. They are somewhat re-
ticent as their observations, but it is
understood that they are highly pleas,
ed with the situation.
Last years crop at Pioneer Mill
was 1854 tons. The manager es-
timated the crop this year to be more
than 25,500 tons" 1t is now announc.
ed that the yield will equal the outpu,
of last year, probably running in the
neighborhood of 27,7OO tons.
The cane on the entire estate is
looking remarkably Wen. isis year
about $50 acres of new land will be
harvested in addition 20 that embrac-
ed in last years crop.
Next year the yield from this new
land should be more and the total
yield considerably larger.
Agoo cash balance to the credit of
Pioneer at the end of this year is
now certain.

BIC COMMERCIAL
MAN COMING HERE

The local Chamber of Commerce
has received advices that Charles NJ.
Fassett, president of the Chamber of
Commerce of Spokane, Wash, will
leave San Francisco on the 81
IBERIA on Nov. 20 for Honolulu, and
perhaps a tour of the world.
The letter states that Mr.. Fassett
is one of the foremost chemists and
metallurgists in the Pacific Northwest.
He will be looked after upon his ar
rival here, but there seems to be
plenty of time for preparation. Mr..
Fassett will undoubtedly receive an
invitation to speak before the Cham
Der or some other body,

ELECTRIC CO, To
ISSUE NEW STOCK

A very important meeting of the
Hawaiian Electric Company stock
holders will be held at 10 o'clock on
Monday morning for the purpose of
declaring stock dividen of fifty per
cent.
1t is important and interesting to
note in connection with this matter
that every dollar or the increase of
stock to go as a result of the dividend
is from surplus actually on hand.
The Hawaiian Electric has had a
very prosperous year and the pros
poets for the future are most excel
lent.
