NUMEROUS STOCK
DEALS PUT THROUGH

A very large number of stock deals
have been put through since the ses-
sion of the Exchange on Thursday,
when adjournment was taken over
Good Friday Many of these were
concluded on the street, although q
good number of sales were made on
the board this morning
An occurrence which attracted the
most attention, perhaps, had to do
with Eva stock At one stage of the
business of the morning, Halstead &
Company offered one block after an
other, each running from twenty to
fifty shares, of Eva stock, at $3425.
As this was slightly Below market,
each lot was promptly taken. The
secret of the avalanche was that the
firm had come into possession Of 1000
shares on a basis of S34125, with or
ders to sell at a higher figure. This
morning the instructions were
arrivaD for the accommodation of the
brokers followed instructions, even
though the figures We're lower than
could have been obtained by waiting,
or by selling gradually. During the
session of the board 25 shares of Eva
sold at 1874, however, which may offer
some justification of the sale of 1000
shares at $34.125. At the close the
| figure just given was bid and $3425
was being asked for the stock
Between boards Eva had done all
sorts of things. For instance, there
was one, sale of 200 shares at $33. IS.
Then there was a report of sale of
80 shares at only $34. Finally there
was the sale, or transfer, mentioned
above to Halstead e Company of
1000 shares at S34125
Waialua was firm at $134, small
sales being made between and on the
board at that figure. At the close
$134 was still bid with $13425 asked.
On the street 80 and Is Pioneer sold
at 1926, which was below the market
of previous days. On the board this
morning $235 was bid, while more
stock was to be had at 1926.
Between boards total of 200
shares Oahu sold at $3.50, while on
the board this morning 245 shares
sold at 1915. At the close $3775
was bid and $3S asked.
Several big sales of Hutchinson was
made before Mr.. st. Goar got away.
Two large blocks of 395 and 500
shares went at S19.125, followed by a
small block at $40. On the board this
morning 1925 was bid and $3.50
asked

81 am very much pleased with the
financial conditions here as / have
found them, and in my mind Homo
lulu has a great future before her.
Every line of industry is tseady and
safe, and it would not surprise me
very much to have a great demand for
local stock and bonds on my return.
Honolulu has a great reputation on
the mainland as a conservative bust
ness community, and I am certain
that the confidence of the people on
the mainland is not misplaced Since
have been here I have been looking
over the different investments, and
find that there are a large number
of good ones here. In conclusion Mr
Pierce stated that he was more thar
satisfied with the trip, and lhoped to
return here again next year"

their proposals are mere preliminary
details to piece of very serious bust
ness. At the top, above all and over
all, the sugar factos of Honolulu
and San Francisco, are, to use a
street expression, "the bosses" What
they decide in the end will stand.
They may accept the services of eth
err one of the companies; they may
accept the services of both; or, they
may reject both and make other ar
rangements entirely.
The fight now on is entirely be-
tween Matson and Dearborn, the
points at issue being their own, the
sugar factors being interested spec
tators" When the steamship heads
have settled their points of difference
and have submitted their proposals,
the matter will be taken up at this
end.
In the discussion which is to be re-
sumed at San Francisco, MatsoR and
Dearborn Will have the coast repre-
sentatives of the Hawaiian planters to
consult with when they desire II
these conferences (if conferences are
deemed desirable) Mr.. Rithet, OF
Welch & Company, and other repre-
sentatives of local interests will prob
ably take part.
Captain Matson reached the Will
helmina this morning alone. He was
detained on the wharf for quite :
while, bidding friends goodbye anc
assembled the gangway just before the
last whistle sounded.
Mr.. Dearborn was accompanied tC

DISCUSSION To
SAN FRANCISCO
DEARBORN FOR THE COAST WITHOUT SET
THING DIFFERENCES RELATING TO SUGAR CARRYING CON
TRACT AND RESUME EGoTIATIoNs OVER THERE-sU-
GAR FACTORS HAVE THE NAL DECISION OF MATTER.

!, The heads of the two big steam,
ship companies most interested in the
transporting of sugar from the Ha-
waiian Islands to American ports
have left Honolulu without coming to
any agreement or arrangement as to
what shall be done when the present
contract with the American Hawaiian
Steamship Company runs out next
autumn.
Captain Matson was the first to
leave, he getting away in the Wilhel-
nina at 10 o'clock. At 1890 Presi-
, dent Dearborn, of the American Ha-
waiian, sailed in the Siberia, also
bound for the Golden Gate.
The arrangement now is that tn
two men are to meet in San Fran
cisco and resume consideration Of
the freight carrying matter at exactly
the point at which negotiations were
broken off this morning.
At San Francisco Matson will have
Dearborn on his own (Matson' -
ground, and may or may not be more
aggressive in his attitude. At the
same time, Dearborn will be in closer
touch with his colleagues and may
play the cards which he is said to yet
retain up his sleeve. Mr.. Dearborn
is diplomat of the keenest sort, and
it is hard to guess what his move
may be.
From the discussion which has been
going on for a week or more, one
might be led to suppose chat the SUI
gar carrying contract was a sort oi
turkey to be ratified for or divided
Ipjretty much as Matson and Dearborn
might determine. Such is far from
the truth. Matson and Dearborn AMI

 Washington, July 19.-Little hope was held today for the recovery of William l.. Smith, a negro who was shot last night by a soldier from Fort Myer as the result uf hitter race feel ing which has continued since the night of the Jeff-Johnson fight when Private c. F.
