FAIR
NEXT MONTH

Plans for the Philippine Exposition
in February, 1912, are fairly complete
and are of such a character as to
merit the attention of American eX-
porters, says Consul General George
+. Anderson, of Hongkong, in a report.
The exposition, as has been indicat-
ed in previous reports, is the result
of an appropriation made by the
Philippine Legislature at its recent SEES
sion, and has been designed as an
adjunct to the Philippine carnival,
which has become a notable annual
event in this portion of the Far East.
While the exposition appropriation
was not large, it has been made to go
a long way in connection with carnival
arrangements.
1t is planned to make specially fine
exhibits of Philippine industries, which
will not only contain samples of the
handicrafts of the natives but will also
display some of the processes of man.
ufacture. For example, makers of the
famous "kalasiao," "pulilan" and other
bamboo and palms hats, which rival
and even in some cases excel the Pan
anna in texture and durability, will be
at work in the exposition. Mat makers,
producing the multicolored and multi
shaped mats, and women weavers of
the famous just, pima, and sinamay
cloths will be at work. There will be
exhibits of cocoanut and copra, palay,
rice, rubber, hemp, and other agricul-
tural products, and the actual process
of preparing them. Besides the 81 So
called civilized Province exhibits, the I
special or wild-tribe Provinces will
have exhibits illustrating native work
and native products as well as habits,
customs, and manner of living. Prac-
tically all of these exhibits will be
housed in the Philippine government
building.
The exposition is to be free in all
respects as to admission charges
While no arrangements have been
made as to receiving exhibits from
the United States direct, exhibits in
the line indicated are likely to prove
profitable The most practicable meth.
cd of making exhibits is through the
agency of Manila import houses,

STAGNATION
AFTER HOLIDAY

1t was to be expected that trading
in stocks and bonds would be rather
duh the day following a holiday like
Christmas. The expectation has been
fully justified, for there was less do.
ing in that line today than for a long
time previously.
Only four sales have been recorded.
A block of 50 shares Of Honokaa sold
at IL and another block of the same
stock at the same price. Six shares of
Oahu sold at 32.75 and $1,000 Hilo Elk.
Is sold at 90.75. Aside from those
four transactions nothing is reported
by the stock and bond exchange.

HOLIDAY TRADE
MADE A RECORD

The retail stores of Honolulu have
done a record business during the
past two or three weeks. Almost
every store reports having exceeded
every previous year in the volume of
trade.
This is largely, of course, because
of the fact that, with good year be-
hind, there is more money in Hawaii
today than there has been in many
years. And with all indications point.
ing to a continuation of the present
prosperity, Honolulu people have ap.
parently felt that they could afford to
be generous in their purchases of
holiday presents.
As a consequence all the managers
and employees of the various retail
stores are tired, almost to the point
of exhaustion, but the managers, at
least, are jubilant. They feel that the
increase in business will prove to be
not merely temporary but that it
marks a new era.
Business in nearly all lines was
dull today, but that was to be expect.
ed, in view of the fact that the past
week has been a strenuous one and
people are trying to rest up. Pros.
poets for the New Years trade are
good and most of the merchants are
confident that the good times will
continue through the year 1912.

After the transaction the proprietor became suspicious and, though a local jeweler had pronounced the diamond genuine and worth sev- eral times the amount received on it, Sl00. he believed it to be bogus. and finding that the pair instead of return ing to Phoenix as they said they in tended. took the train for the south. They were intercepted at Maricopa and brought back.
 They were met at the office of the sheriff by the saloon man and after some conference Hutchinson returned
