THE OLD OFFICERS
ARE REELECTED

BY unanimous vote James f. Nor
gan was yesterday afternoon elected
president of the Chamber of Com
merce. When nominated by w. r.
Castle, he declined on the plea that
he was leaving the country for four
months, but the Chamber seemed to
feel that it could give MIN the vaca-
ton and still have the best of the bar
gain The vote was taken and Mr..
Morgan found himself still president
before he had a chance to protest fur
Their. The list of officers complete is
as follows:
James F. Morgan, president; J. p.
Cooke, vice president; H. P. Wood,
secretary and treasurer. Trustees
B. F. Dillingham;, Robert Cation, ].

ing, E. H. Wodehouse and E D. Ten
ney.
The remainder of the evening was
given over to the reading and discus
sion of reports. That of the president
which was published yesterday, was
quite long and took ep considerable
time. The treasurer's report showed
receipts during the year to have been
$11,399.91 and expenditures $9,567.39,
leaving a balance of $1S32.52. The
principal expenditures during the year
were the donations to the Promotion
Committee and the appropriation for
| the tuberculosis campaign. Enter
tainments during the year cost $685.
SO, and the Kaimuki observatory got
small appropriation of $1OO.
The proposal of President Morgan
for the amalgamation of the various
commercial bodies was received in
silence, but the suggestion will un-
doubtedly be followed up later on.

MEAT SHIPMENT
FROM AUSTRALIA

Honolulu is not to go meat hungry
for the present at least; the situation
has been saved Unexpectedly and in
3 rather surprising manner.
BY the Zealandia arriving last night
from the Colonies there turned up
here the following meat items mark
ed ]. A. s., Honolulu" and consigned
to F. w. Macfarlane: sos quarters of
beef, 273 carcasses mutton, 1874 pieces
mutton, IS kegs and 2 casks of meat.
The conclusion along the waterfront
was that the meat belonged to the
Hawaii Meat Company, and that con-
cera was communicated with in re-
gard to it. A statement denying any
interest in the meat was at once
forthcoming from that company.
The steamship people knew what
they were about however, and deliver
ed the stuff to trucks which took the
cargo to the ice house.
This morning the mystery was
cleared up. The meat was purchased
in Australia by James Mcqueen, who
was down there in quest of desirable
live stock and who returned in the
Zealandia. Mcqueen handles the
stock end of the Union Feed Com
pany's business, and in that way came
to make the shipment to Mr. Macfar-
lane, 1t is understood that Mr.. Nc
Queen has a plan OF disposing of his
valuable cargo, but is not yet ready
to talk about it.
The shipment at best is an expert
ment. If it is successful other ship
ments may be made in the future.

.OLAA GOES UP
AND OAHU STOCK
COMES DOWN

The ruling feature in stock circles
since yesterday has been the popular
ity of Olaa Although the figures pre-
vailing are not high, the demand for
the stock Seems to be almost unlimit-
ed. The cause of the Squirt" feature
of the days activity was doubtless due
to the rise in the price of sugar, and,
therefore, a temporary influence. Olaa
plantations crop comes in late-grind-
ing being still in progress-so that
considerable OF the sugar output of
this season is practically certain to
catch the high market 1t has been
felt all along that if Olaa pulled
through this year in good shape, it's
future would take care of itself. The
very high price of sugar, which now
prevails, will bring the cash results
desired.
Between boards 200, %, 50 and so
Olaa sold at So .625, and on the board
this morning 25, 80 and 25 shares
easily found buyers at the same. Lat
er shares sold at rs, which was
| top-market for the day. At the close
the latter figure was asked for large
lots, while Sc 625 was still bid.
The other feature of the day was
the partial success of the persistent
effort to bear Oohu. Between boards
so shares sold at $31 125 and on the
board this morning 10 shares, on an
ordered" sale, changed hands at $751;
I This is the lowest figure at which this
! stock has sold since the advance start
ed some months ago. At the close of
the session $50. S75 was bid and $31.
1875 asked. The stock is very weak
and there seems to be lots of it on
the market.
Hawaiian Commercial was probably
a share better off than yesterday if an
increase of demand may be regarded
as indicating strength. Sales had
been made yesterday at $41.125. On
the board this morning 20 shares sold
at that figure and more was desired
but could not be found. At the close
the same was still bid, holders, how
ever; demanding SAL, %.
Sides were % Pahang rubber stock
preferred at SIS; 6 Hilo Railway Co
at $12; BreweryRat $21. rs.
Waialua was and still is a trifie
stronger. At the close yesterday the
quotations were 1929 bid and 1929 sc
asked. Today shares sold at 1929. so
followed by Is at $3.50. At the close
of the session $129.7 was bid and
$3.50 asked.
EVA was about the same as ever
the bidding figure today, however, be
ing a shade to the bad. When the ses
sion closed yesterday S33 rs was bic
for EVA and 533S75 asked. At to
days close it was $35 625 bid and $99.
SIS asked. A sale of 80 shares was
made at $33 rs, however, which indi
Gated that the stock was still very
much alive.

ALLEGES Wife HAS
FOUND AN AFFINITY
j. HARLEY YETTER WOULD
SECURE DIVORCE DECREE
Alleges in Complaint That Wife Fell
i'm Love With Boarder and Is Now
Living With Him i'm WaIla walla-
Clinton Davis Named as Core
spondent.

That his wife has not only found
her affinity, but has forsaken her
husband in this city and taken up her
abode with her new love in Walla
Walla, are the startling allegations
made in a suit filed for divorce by
j. Harley Yetter against Bessie May
Yetter.
The parties to this suit were mar
ried in Josephine county, January IS,
1910, though both of them have for
merly been residents of Umatilla
county. During the past several
months they have been conducting
a rooming and lodging house in this
city.
1t is alleged in the complaint that
in June of this year, Mrs. Yetter fell
in love with one of their boarders,
Clinton Davis by name, and that since
that time she has continued to lavish
her love and affection upon the
boarder to the exclusion of her law
fully welded husband. The latter
charges that the pair had clandestine
meetings during the months of June
and July and that on August Of this
year they went to Walla Walla. where
they are now living as husband and
wife.
Yetter asks for an absolute decree
of divorce and for absolute title to
property owned by him in this city.

OF SPAIN BLOCKS
PLANS OF THE CLERICALS

Madrid, Aug. 24.-Plans of the
clericals to concentrate their forces at
San Sebastian on Aug. 7th, and at
Victoria on Sept. 4th, have been
blocked by administration leaders.
The clericals freely threaten Spain
with a nationwide demonstration on
Sept. 18th and it is believed such ac-
ton may precipitate a long delayed
civil upheaval. Under an order of
Premier Caneljas the administration
seized all means of transportation
early in the month and thus prevent
ed the gathering planned at San Sc
bastian by the clericals. Had the
meeting been held, there would have
doubtless been bloodshed. The life
of the premier is constantly threat
ened in letters so that he can not go
on the streets.

have all they want. l am going to

as l originally planned" He said he
would stand for clean-cut, decent
policies.
Continuing Roosevelt said: 81 am
going to the Saratoga convention be-
cause I feel the public interest de-
mands that the party be given a
chance to stand squarely and uncom-
promisingly in clean-cut decent poll
cies. I hope there will be enough
honest delegates to prevent the over
throw of the principles for which
stand yet if certain element feels it
