STOCK REPORT OF
TRENT TRUST CO.

The stock letter of the Trent Trust
Company, sent to the other islands last
night, was as follows:
The increased impetus given the
stock market in it's downward trend
during the week cannot be assigned to
any new derogatory influence, but to
clearer realization of the effect
very low price of sugar would have
on next years dividends.
Many well informed persons are pre-
dieting sugar below SO so for the COM
ing crop, and this opinion is gradual
ly becoming general.
Taking the price received for this
years crop as "a % which is probably
shade high as against a possible
SO so it will be readily seen that the
difference amounts to SIS 90 per ton.
Should the above price prevail it
means heavy cut in the net earnings
and, of course, lower dividends. The
companies that are paying nominal di-
vidends with extras from time to time
will probably not have to announce
any change, simply disseminating the
extras; but the companies paying a
high regular dividend will find it nee
essary to reduce the percent.
The European beet crop figures re-
main unchanged. The harvesting is
going along smoothly, each weeks re-
ports giving more convincing evidence
of the enormous crop that will be
forthcoming this season. AS stated
previously the estimated increase
amounts to over three times the entire
crop of the Hawaiian Islands, and
, from present indications bids fair to
being realized.
The heaviest declines have takel
place in Waialua and Pioneer, but Ga
hu and Eva have suffered as well. A
the moment the more active stocks arr

death in this way did not occur to him.
He was a man who looked at things
in an elemental way; he was in a fight
and he meant to win it. Besides he
would be taking Simpson to his sick
boy, and that was the thing, above
all others, which Simpson should de-
sire.

all the life he showed He stared dis

which he held in both hands, his face
gray and ms eyes bright AMI wide
..Baby very sick Come home.
Maud.''
That was ala summons from his
wife to hasten to the side of the being
in all the world for whom, beside them
selves, they cared. His heart leapt to
that sick bed, and hovered there, full
of terror; but that would not of course
snffice for the woman whom he could
easily picture as bending over little
feverish face, the while she caught her
breath and wrung her hands. She
would want him there in the fesh-
want him to soothe her, when her own
hope died, and to keep her sane If the
worst happened
But how to go9 He came out of his
frozen state with something like
sob in his throat. He looked about
him like a man who seeks aid See
therel At the end of the paved village
street he could, even from there, espy
a stretch of blue clay. 1t was so with
ecery country thoroughfare. The spring
rains had left them long lines of sticky
mud They were altogether impasst-
BILE. A farmer the day before had tried
to come in with an empty wagon. Half
a mile from home he had left the vehi-
Gle in the clay and returned riding one
horse and leading the other. And the
animals were mud to their launches
by the time their destination was
reached.
The only other avenue of escape, the
railroad was blocked completely.
For ten days not wheel had turned.
The engines were stone cold in the
round houses; the engineers idle, smok-
ing or whiting formless things with
Jheir pocket knives They had struck
for more money; they said they would
never go back until they got it. Their
petition had at length reached the
president, and he said they would never
get it. Simpson now realized the irony
of his predicament, when he remem-
bered that he had seen one of the ring
leaders in the walkout. Even that morn
ing he had bolstered up the faith of one
or two who had wondered-only won
dered-if a mistake had not been
made.
Simpson had gone into the village
to get some tobacco, and the operator
at the commercial office had hailed
him from the doorway to give him the
disquieting telegram. 1t brushed the
strike from his mind, except as the
strike kept him where he was.
He walked slowly down the street
in the direction of the yards, expect
ing that he mi ght meet some of his
friends, to whom he could tell his trou-

" to be carried out, flashed across his
mind. He might steal an engine, and

move in the game after Mckenzie re-
ceived the formal order for his train
to run extra. The men, for the most
part, stood about with hands in their
pockets, as if they did mot care, but
Mckenzie was aware of black looks
shot at him 1rom under many a cap.
When he saw the engine under a
hostler's hand, coming down the track
he walked out to the switch and stood
nonchalantly there. The man with the
red moustache sauntered up to him.
3sWhatcha goina DO, Mack?' he ask
ed from a mouth filed with tobacco.
"Why?' Mckenzie questioned.
The engineer slowly expectorated

suggested the possibility of a personal
encounter on the spot. An observer
might have imagined that the only
thing that checked their pugnaeity was
mutual fear or perhaps regard, for,

no more than Mckenzie IS equal. And
