WAIVER POWER pERM1Ts.

United States Department of Agri.
culture, Washington, December 20,
191O.-A new form of water power per-
nit and new regulations for water
power plants in the national forests
we're approved yesterday by the secre-
tary of agriculture. The important
changes under the new regulations are,
that they provide for the issuance of
preliminary permit which secures to
the party making the first application
protection during the time necessary
to make his final surveys and procure
the data for the issuance of the final
permit.
The new permits will terminate at
the expiration of fifty years, unless re-
voked sooner by the secretary of agri-
culture, and the charge will be based
upon the net horsepower capacity of
the plant, beginning with charge of
ten cents per horsepower during the
first year and rising gradually ten cents
per year to 81 per horsepower in the
tenth year, which charge will continue
thereafter. Computed for the ffty-year
period, the charge under the new per-
NIT is about thirty per cent less than
that under the old form.
Provision is made for a readjustmeet
every ten years of the factors upon
which the estimated capacity of the

( New York.-The Continental Rubber
Company, which is controlled by Sena-
tor Nelson W. Aldrich of Rhode Island,
and which is part of the United
States Rubber Company and rubber
trusts, has gained control of four of
the biggest rubber plantations in the
Federated Malay States, and has plans
laid out to break the rubber market
of Europe, aided by the tariff of the
United States, which Aldrich helped
build.
1t is claimed. however, by Peter
Archibald Gordon Bryan, a rubber
magnate of India and the Straits Set
Elements, that he, personally, will dis

of the fact that he is an extensive

that of raising the. necessary fund for

FINE FUTURE FOR
HAMAKUA TOBACCO,

Gustav Kretzschmar, the well known
Hamakua tobacco planter, has received
letter from Hirsch & Son, large i'm.
porters of Sumatra and Havana tobac-
co, with headquarters in New York, in
which full confirmation is given of the
claim always made by the Paauilo man,
namely that the Hamakua district was
far better suited for the production of
fine tobacco than any other part of the
Islands, says the Hilo Tribune.
Some time ago Mr.. Kretzsehmar sent
some samples of tobacco raised on his
farm, TO the firm mentioned, and in re-
ply thereto he has received the follow
ing letter;
New York, December 16, 1910.
Mr.. Gustav Kretzschmar, Paauilo To-
baccO Farm, Hamakua, Hawaii.
Dear Sir:-Your favor of the 25th
ultimo received; the samples you sent
us have also been received.
We have carefully examined and
studied the tobacco and are of the
opinion that the tobacco will cure out
well. 1t is the best Hawaiian tobacco
which we have seen, it is far superior
to the tobaecos from the other sections
inasmuch as it is perfect burning tobac-
co, and as you know that is the most
essential point necessary for a tobacco
for wrapper purposes. 1t compares
favorably with Sumatra tobacco; of
course, Sumatra tobacco is thinner of
leaf and has a much thinner stem and
a finer finish. But Sumatra tobacco
has to pay duty of $l.s5, whereas
this tobacco would come in free.
At the present time, there is lot of
Connecticut shade-grown tobacco used
in place of Sumatra tobacco. This year
the crop of shade grown tobacco in the
State of Connecticut was exceptionally
good and this coming year arrangements
have been made by large planters to
more than double the quantity. We
consider your tobacco far superior to
the Connecticut wrappers and think
that we could handle same in competi-
tion Herewith. We believe your tobac-
60 could be improved from year to year
as the climate is more favorable to the
raising of wrappers, in our opinion, than
in Connecticut
1t must interest you to know that the

THE SUGAR MARKET.

Local conditions in the Hawaiian Is
lands indicate larger sugar crop than
ever before. The weather has been, as
rule, propitious during the month,
with heavy rains in some sections and
only cold weather in spots. A feeling
Of greater confidence prevails in the
industry and while the harvesting is
backward on some of the plantations,
grinding is progressing favorable as a
general thing.
Estimates made by Willett & Gray
place the total of the world stock of
sugar on December /, 1910, at $685.
242 tons, as against 2,7s3,913 tons for
the same date in 1909; an increase of
475,S29 tons in sight over the previo1s
year.

shipped to China considerable part
Of the output there, the Chinese re-
Gently coming into the island market

Philippines aggregated 1882 tons.

The foot section of the Floral
Parade, which in the past has not been
of especial Importance, promises this
year to rival the automobile and float
sections in attractiveness.
The feature which will doubtless
command the greatest interest provided
it is carried out as now planned.
will be that in which the school chill

proposed to have children of all ma
tionalities, wearing their national
dress march in the parade, besides hav-
ing classes in simple uniforms, or wear
ing leis, perform easy evolutions as
they march.
The Boy Scouts in their new uni
forms are also to make their initial
public appearance ON this occasion,

Schools will also be represented, prob
ably nearly two hundred strong.

FINANCIAL REVIEW.

A steady and active market was tn
feature Of the Honolulu Stock and Bond
Exchange for the week just ended. The
transactions totaled $4s, 927.75 and with
few exceptions ali along the line the
sugar stocks held their own and then
some. Now that the estimates of the
world Is sugar crop are becoming known
and the prices more or lees assured it
IS q matter of calculation to estimate
the financial returns within a close
figure.
One of the spot light stocks during
the week was the Eva Plantation Com
pany, the trading in the shares of this
company leading all Others. The total
sales reached 440 shares, steady at
$3.50 with n total value at $4,000.
The Waialua Agricultural Company
made the largest gain, possibly on ac-
count of the news that the irrigation
bill in congress had been withdrawn, a
bill which woald have seriously inter
fered with the company's water sup
ply. Altogether there was sale of
only thirty shares of this stock, but
they all went at 80 fiat, which is a
jump from So, scored the week pre-
viously. Yesterday there were only five
shares to be had at this figure, pos.

Connecticut farmers formerly used
Sumatra seed, which did not prove a
success, while last year they used Ha-
vana seed from the Vuelta Abajo dis
trict and turned out good tobacco, the
weather having been very favorable;
all of il was raised under shade.
A good deal depends on how your
tobacco will cure out and whether or
not the veins and leaves viii come out

We are firmly convinced that there
is future to this kind of tobacco and
that ready market can be found for
same. We remain, yours very truly,

unanimous. There is an element in
the committee inclined, it is said, to
favor James A. Hemenway, of Indiana,
who was succeeded in the United States
Senate by Benjamin F. Shively. Mr..
Hemenway represents the conservatives
as against the radicals, and is one of
the very closest friends of Speaker Can
non. IL is altogether probable that the
weight of control will be thrown in
favor of Mr.. Weeks, however.
Mr.. Weeks is not only representa-
tive in congress, hut man of affairs

affairs and in the house of representa-
tives that there is little doubt that he
will be elected United States senator

the first two or three ballots.
He impressed the President with his
ability when, although he did not
heartily support the postal savings bank

measure as one favored by the Repub-
