MONEY STRINGENCY
COMPLETELY RELIEVED

Pronounced and very satisfactory
relief to the financial stringency in
Honolulu has been brought about in
the past few days, due largely to the
foresight of the banks of the city,
coupled with certain natural condi-
lions.
1t is reliably stated this afternoon
that the period of tight money" has
completely passed, and that nego-
tiations with the banks in future will
be easier than in months past This
does not mean that there will be any
let up on the policy of discouraging
wildcat, outside investments; but
money will be easily available for
| legitimate business purposes of any
and every kind
One leading cause of the change
for the better has been the cessation
of Withdrawals for the payment of
taxes, The Bank of Hawaii alone
cashed checks for 100000 for this
purpose, and other banks were call
ed upon to supply amounts almost in
proportion. This drain was, OF
curse, only temporary, but it was sew
erely felt for a time.
With the end of the tax collecting
period, this strain ceased.
Then the outflow changed into an
inflow; for the Territorial treasurer
offered back about 100000 to thu
banks at the low rate of 2 per cent
the interest prescribed by law This
large sum was absorbed by the foul
local banks in about equal proper
tions, smaller amounts beink taker
by the banks of the other islands.
In addition to this money, however
the local banks have met the situa,
ton by importing gold, Thus tho

MORNING SESSION
STOCK EXCHANGE

The stock market was very quiet
this morning, not a sale being made
on the board. There was a good deal
of street trading late yesterday, how
ever, and some since the adjournment
of the session this morning. Taken
as a whole, the market was weak.
Oahu figured conspicuously in the
street trading, although at low figures.
Blocks of 40, 5, 80, 10 and 80 shares
found buyers at $3.50. At the close
this morning $33 so was bid and
80 75 asked for the stock.
A sale of As Eva was made at S33.-
IS, after which big lot of 1875 shares
went at the same. RMS morning bid
ding was at $3.50, while holders were
demanding $34.
Five shares Waialua found a
buyer at 1874, at which the stock
seemed to be fairly firm 1t is true
that only 1880 was bid at the close,
but the stock could not be had for
less than $135.
Two blocks of Onomea-25a and 80
shares-sold at $40 so. This morning
SAT so was asked for the stock, but
none was offered.

at $212, after which 1912 was bid and

The Missing Link
In Federal Site Matter

The trustees of the Chamber If
Commerce are holding session at 3
o'clock this afternoon, and during this
meeting a good ceal of the misunder-
standing in regard to the enlargement
of the plans for the public building
site is being cleared up.
At best, there was a missing link i'll
the correspondence between Delegate
Kuhio and the Merchants Associa-
ton on the subject; and this link,
which arrived in the mail yesterday
and is before the Chamber of Com
merce this afternoon, throws a differ
ent light upon the whole matter.
To explain: This matter had its be-
ginning on Mao 90, or more than two
weeks ago, when a despatch was re-
ceived from Delegate Kuhio request
ing taxation values and the estimat-
ed cost to condemn" the property on
the Waikiki side or Fort street be-
tween King and Merchant, the prop
erty to be added to the postoffice site.
This information was requested as
confidential" the reason for secrecy
not being known here.
Again: Upon the receipt of this ca
| blegram, Governor Frear was seen
and a request was made of him that
the taxation data be supplied. Gov
ernor Frear was greatly surprised,
having had no previous intimation Of
the change in plans. However, he
requested the figures from the tax
office and received the same prompt
! ly, as follows: Assessed value Of the
property referred to, between King
and Merchant street, $4,000; actual
value of the same, $35O,00O
1t may be said in justice to Gov
ernor Frear and also to the others
concerned, that in saying nothing
about the matter they merely follow
ed the injunction of Delegate Kuhio's
request that the matter be consider
ed confidential" There was moth
ing in the cabled message to show
why it should be regarded as econ
fidential," but II was assumed that
the Delegate had good reason for SC
! prescribing.
The reply to Delegate Kuhio, Civ
ing the facts supplied by Governor
Frear from the tax office, was sent
from Honolulu on May "a.
The letter from Delegate Kuhio
which arrived yesterday, and is be-
ing considered by the trustees of the
Chamber this afternoon, explains
away many things which had been
misunderstood. 1t is plain, for in
stance, that the department is acting
upon the advice OF Architect Ayres
who was recently here; and that
Ayres reached his conclusion after
listening to the ideas of Architect H
L. Kerr and other citizens at an open
meeting called for the purpose Of
discussing the matter, at which the
concensus of opinion seemed to be
that to take in the whole block, in
conditions as a basis for forcing ;
higher market. Upon all good rallies
however, we should advise profit tax
ing until intrinsic conditions improve

Guiding the Mahuka site, would be
the ideal plan.
Finally: There is nothing in any of
the correspondence to indicate that
the Irwin proposition figures in the
new scheme at all, but, on the other
hand, assurances are repeated that
the Treasury Department is endeavor-
ing to meet the views of Honolulu
and at the same time provide com
modius location for the Federal build
ing.

LATEST LETTER
OF BANKER CLEWS

Writing under date of May q,
Henry Clews, the New York banker
and authority on finances, says:
Efforts to lift the stock market
have thus far met with only occasion
al success, and arguments in favor of
higher prices fail to enlist the de-
sired attention of buyers. Whether
this is because of a suspicion that
the big men have been encouraging
a rise for the purpose of Kidding
themselves of surplus stocks, or else
making a market for pending new
issues; or whether it is due to other
and as yet unrecognized tendencies
remains to be seen. Compared with
the high prices of last year, good
stocks certainly look cheap, and yet
there are some unpleasant features
developing, the outcome of which
must be awaited with patience. Pos
sibly the power to absorb stocks has
been temporarily impaired by recent
heavy issues, or else investors may
be holding back for better terms. In
the latter attitude they are meeting
with no little encouragement. Phi
ladelphia could not place loan at 4
per cent, but might have succeeded
at IA per cent, the Pennsylvania
Railroad having no difficulty in dis
posing Of a considerable issue on a
A IL per cent basis. Chicago has
just been obliged to pay 4 IL per
cent for a new loan. At last the
unprecedented demands upon CAPT
tai are beginning to have their eff
feet. There are signs of a temporary
exhaustion of buying power, and those
who have money to invest are ma
turally demanding better returns.
The delay in announcing the issue Of
bonds abroad has also exerted a dis
couraging effect; it now being sew
eral weeks since rumors were cur
rent that Europe was about to buy
$300,000,000, while little more than
$100,000,000 have only thus far been
taken. European buyers also appear
to be insisting upon better terms
Needless to say such conditions in
the investment market are not fav-
orable to higher prices for stocks.
The monetary situation is also pro
blematieal the present ease being
largely superficial Interior banks
have been contracting their loans
when possible and sending funds to
New York, the result being an ample
supply here of call money. Bankers
are wisely keeping their funds well in
hand. The Western situation is at
tracing much attention, because OF
the considerable over-expansion OF
loans by Western institutions, fire.
