Notwithstanding
Market---What Would
His Election Do?

Eleven of the most widely traded in
sugar stocks of Hawaii have. as a direct
result of the candidacy Of Link Nc
Candless. deprecated in value 1926
80, which is 11.2 per cent of the total
aggregate capitalization of the eleven
companies, the total capitalization
being $50 ,412,155.
The heaviest loser is Hawaiian Com
mercial and Sugar. which. with a paid
in capital of but $2,3l2,755. has de-
preeiated no less, on paper, than 81
100000. Hawaiian Commercial, of
course, is capitalized at $10,000,000, but
the paid-in capital amounts to but the
81 .312, 755 mentioned above.
The general effect of the candidacy
of McCandless can easily be seen by
the following table showing the capital
ization of the eleven sugar companies
and the amount to which the stock Of
each has fallen since September ], when
it first begun to be borne in on the
minds of the sugar interests that Link
was TO be real figure in the campaign.

Stock Exchange Yesterday.

The slump of stock prices still con
tinues and quotations have dropped be-
low the figures which We're set as the
minimum mark at the time the depres-
SION commenced.
One Of the heaviest sufferers yester-
day was Pioneer Mil, a comparatively
small block moving AT 220, seven and a
half dollars below the last reported
sale This figure is considered prepos-
ferrous on ''the street. in the face of
improved agricultural conditions all
over the islands and even the present
political trouble and the lower price
Of sugar are hardly enough to have
deprecated this stock to that extent
In contrast TO this heavy fall on IA

prevailing price. The Hawaiian Trust
Company acted for both the purchaser
and seller. but it merely points to an
Inconsistency in an otherwise untortu-

MCANDLESS CANDIDACY CAUSES DROP
OF NEARLY FOUR MILLIONS IN STOCKS

and there Is not supposed TO be any
margin trading done-will probably be
as well off as before after the election,
for it IS extremely probable that values
will bounce upward after election fully
as rapidly as they have fallen since the
McCandless bugaboo appeared before
the startled eyes of the stockholders
and scared good many of them into
letting go OF their holdings, often at a
loss In fact. it is probable that as
soon as the market catches its breath
and the traders stop to realize the very
poor chances McCandless has of attain
ing the summit of his ambition, which
is to 90 to Washington at any cost to
penny to himself, it will not be neces-
sary to wait until after election for
stocks to soar upwards again.
But nothing can better illustrate the
situation and the estimate in which Me
Candless is held by the business com
muuity than the tumble in the stock
market which his candidacy has caused.
Labor is the life of the plantations
and. the planters realizing that it is the
announced intention of McCandless to
interfere with the labor market and
shut out. If he can, the necessary sup
ply of labor by cutting out the immi-
grotion appropriation and also, prob
ably. by knocking at Westinghouse
he ever gets there-assisted foreign i'm
migration. it is not entirely surprising
that sugar stock holders should expert
ence few shivers.

Run Ahead of the
Fourth.

Delegate Kuhio left for Hawaii yes
terdav to follow in the footsteps of
McCandless. although the latter's move
ments on the Big Island are said to be
as erratic as those of a flea. The Re-
publican committee can not put it's
thumb on the whereabouts of McCand-
less, but the members expect Kuhio to
catch up with McCandless and nail
some of his demagogic utterances. ".
G. Achi is accompanying the Prime 2

making.
On the return Of Primes Kuhio the
campaign on this Island NNEebe opened
up in earnest. The eonasIftee has de-
cided to do quiet work the next
two weeks and then put in a three
weeks speaking campaign.
The registration Of voters goes on
steadily. At the present time the fifth
district shows three hundred better
than the fourth, and registering from
the latter district has slowed up ma
terially The registration closes d
week from Saturday, after which time
there viii be no opportunity for

an opportunity to cast a ballot IN No

waiting until the last day to register

represents only the depreciation of the

not mentioned would bring the total

Of course, this depreciation is but

The former President s words aptly
describe the condition of the Old Guard,
who were decisivelv defeated in their
attempt to seat Vice President Sher-
as temporary chairman, a position that
Roosevelt wanted for himself. The
preliminary test votes showed that the
Roosevelt party had control and the
vote for temporary chairman proved it,
the result being: For Roosevelt, SCI;
for Sherman, 445.

Roosevelt addressed the convention

denounced dishonesty IN public office
and urged the publication of politics,
paying his especial regards rather
pointedly to the old leaders of both
the parties in the State. In the course
of his speech he eulogized the Taft ad-

in any speech he has made since his

Peace Plans Call for Twenty-Five
Hundred Men Within a
Few Months.
HURRYING TO RECEIVE THEM
0ne-Fourth of the Promised Ten
Thousand Soon to Be in
Barracks and Tents.

Yesterdays cable dispatches from
Washington announced that the war
department has officially decided to as
sign a brigadier-g general to command the
regular troops in Hawaii and form out
of the Islands a separate army division.
On September 13 The Advertiser print
ed the following local prediction:
Within Sky days Hawaii may
be created into a separate military
department with a brigadier- gen
eral in command. The separate de-
partment has been recommended by
General Barry, formerly in COM
mand of the department of Cali
fornia, of which Hawaii is now a
part.
Speculation so far has not select
ed the general who will command :
the new department, but there is a
prophecy that Major s NJ. Dun
ming. Twentieth Infantry, com
mandant of Fort Shafter, and at
present officiating at the maneuvers
at Atascadero, California, will be
the chief of staff here. Major Dun
ming is nearing the time when he
NAV become a lieutenant colonel.
Along with the news that Hawaii is
to be created into a separate depart
ment came also the information that
one battery of Field Artillery has been
assigned to duty in Honolulu, and news
that this force will be augmented as
soon as practicable to additional bat
teries to form a battalion. Recon-
mendations have been made to the war
department that 10000 men be station
ed in the posts and Notifications OF
Oahu. That recommendation seems to
be in a way 70 being carried out, for
in addition. to the field artillery, more
coast artillery will shortly be ordered

Second Squadron of the Fifth Cavalry

two sauadrons at Schofeld Barracks OF

now capable of quartering only a bat

Harvard Varsity in Defeat.
By Telegraph to The Tribune !


Cambridge. Mass. Oct. 12-Harvard' s
varsity eleven was scored on and defeated
for the first time this season in a game
with the substitutes this morning or Sol
diers' Field. The score at the end of TWEEN
rv-two minutes OF play was to 0 in favor
Of the second string Of men, whose work
all through the game was better than that
Of the so-called varsity.
It was not by any fuke that the first
team was beaten. The eleven went into the
game made UP of the men who have been
regarded as the best. ard the substitutes
took what was left In order 20 make a
scrimmage possible Team B. which here
tofore has used the varsity signals, learned
a new code and the varsity also disguised
its code.
one touchdown was scored by Team 3
in less than five minutes of play and be
fore the end OF the first half Gardner had
been showed across the lire for a safety.
Between the periods there was some inter
change of players. and the second half
was indecisive. although Team B was fore
ing the play most of the time.
II is safe TO say as a result Of the game
there will be some shifting about Of players.
Potter. at quarter, made a better showing
than Gardner, who was distinctly weak in
handling punts and failed TO put drive into
his men The first string quarterback
,1lgglesworth, was not on the field.
