DIVIDENDS CAUSE
RISES IN STOCKS

The announcement made yesterday
that the directors of Oahu Sugar Com
pany have voted to increase the regu
lar monthly dividend from twenty to
thirty cents a share, beginning Jan
uary 10, had the effect of jumping the
stock to 80 this morning on the Ex-
change. Similarly, the announce
ment that Pioneer Mill Company win
pay a monthly dividend of 50 instead
of $3.50 as heretofore, boosted the
stock of that corporation to $222.5O.

and Pioneer at 1910.
With the sudden rise in stocks
there was a. great sqirrying around

DUN'S REVIEW
OF BUSINESS

Dun's Review, December 9.-Recent
gains in the leading industries and
trades are maintained, and the inn
provement is clearly reflected in the
statistics of bank clearings, which this
week increased 1873 per cent over 1910
and 1871 over 1909 outside New York,
and Sc and Ia per cent, respectively,
in New York. Retail trade, particu-
larly for the holidays, is expanded by
the generally favorable weather, but
iobbing trade, as is natural now, IS
somewhat duieter. Nevertheless the
dry goods market in most Of it's de
lpartments, both cotton and WOOL fair
" maintains the. recent Improvement
Continued progress is made in the iron
and steel markets, with railroad or
ders still the main prop of the i'm
provement, and the prevailing feeling
that further. cuts in prices are un-
| likely, contributes to the better con
ditions that exist Leather is quiet,
but continues strong. Hides are weak.
| Business confidence has been strength
ened by the recent turn in the discus
sion of pending economic issues. AL
though the money value Of farm prod
ucts this year is slightly less than in
1910, yet the total yield, nearly $500
600, 1000, is so great as to carry the trade
of the country into 1912 with another
large dividend to national credit, not
withstanding that this has been a year
of less than full business activity. 1t is
notable fact, which is demonstrated
by statistics, that while trade and in
dustrial depression retards, it does not
entirely stop progress in wealth crea-
ton Large visible domestic supplies
of wheat, heavy receipts at the North
west and great promises in Argentina
are responsible for sharp decline in
wheat, while in cotton, interest has cen
tered in the ginning report this week
and the government estimate, due next
week, of the size of the notable crop
The copper situation continues firmer
Railroad earnings in November de
clined 0.6 per cent as compared with
last year, and foreign commerce at the
port of New York for the most recent
week was less favorable, showing ex
ports of $12,69O,S3O as compared with
$15,594, 4S5 last year and s14,534, jos
in 1909, while imports were S3,659,22t
greater than the exports, being SIC,
344,O56, or about $1,OOO,OOO less thar
in the preceding two years.
Liabilities of commercial failures re
ported for November amount to SIS,
266,337, of which $6,767,347 are II
manufacturing $6,541 ,7S9 in trading
and $1,S57,2O1 in other commercial
lines Failures this week numbered
80 in the United States against 2S7
last year, and 3S in Canada, compared
with % a year ago.

SOUTH AMERICAN
BOAT ARRIVES

The T. X. X. S. Kiyo Maru arrived
from South American ports this morn
ing with cargo of nitrate for this
port. AS per regulations, she will re-
main outside until she is fumigated,
when she will go up to the railroad
wharf This will be either this after
noon late or early tomorrow morning.
The arrival of these vessels is
never heralded, and their arriving
time is uncertain. She hove into
sight shortly after nine o'clock this
morning. She comes from South
American ports, and Honolulu has
enough mosquitoes of its own just
now without borrowing any from
South America, so the vessel will he
fumigated before she enters port.
This work was begun shortly after
her arrival, and 1t is expected that
she will be out of hand this afternoon
about five o'clock or so. But whether
she will come into port tonight or to
morrow morning cannot be said.
She will take on load of coal here
after she has discharged her nitrate,
and then leave for Yokohama.

that at the present time only about
half that number Of shares are held
here. the majority being between 90
and 90.
IL was stated yesterday that the
majority OF people do not agree with
Attorney General Wickersham that the
steel corporation r. n trust in restraint
or trade. and the opinion IL that the
corporation has done more TO helm
independent steel manufacturers than
anything else and that the proposed
dissolution would be a public calamity
