Objections Made
to Ranch Sale.

The CornweH Ranch lands which
were sold by Commissioner Hart,
under order Of the Court, and which
sale came up Wednesday for con-
firmation, were the subject of an
objection being entered by the
Henry Hapai heirs. The claim was
made that the sale was not made
under circumstances calculated to
be to the best possible advantage of
of the property, and that under
other and more favorable circum-
stances more that the price paid
would be realized by the heirs. The
property was bought by Mr.. Arthur
Wilder, trustee, for about SIS, 900.
The objectors are perfecting an
appeal to the Supreme Court.

Fears For
The Canal
Being'in the Earthquake Belt Many
Expect to see it Destroyed.

Earthquakes of considerable sew
Gritty have caused great alarm in the
provinces of Cirqui, Veraguas and
Los Santos, $50 to 200 miles from
Panama City. Each shock was
sharp and heavy. The city of David
was damaged most. 1t is built of
stone, while other smaller towns
nearby are of wood construction.
Earthquakes are frequent, even
in Colon, but they are not. severe
and long continued like the recent
upheayals which have brought TO
the surface the ever latent dread
that the canal may, be damaged tw
some cataclysm of the sort.
Up to the present time, barring
little tremors, the canal zone; has
been remarkably free from earth
quakes. But there always turks
the dread that some day seismic
disturbance will undo the work of
millions of dollars, thousands of
men and several years.
The greatest danger to the canal
would be at the locks at Gatun
Paraiso and Mirafores. Construc-
ton men employed at Gatun have
said that the massive concrete locks
are settling continually, causing large
cracks.to appear.
The nightmare which haunts the
natives OF Colon is the possibility
that the dam at Gatun might be
destroyed. A shock more severe
than ordinary always revives this
talk. AS the dam will hold back
the waters OF lake containing 1 10
square miles of water, with max
imum depth of IS feet, what. an
earthquake could do can be imagin-
ed.
Americans, however, less appre-
hensive than the natives, always
reply that an earthquake great
enough to destroy Gatun's massive
works would destroy the isthmus
and remove the need for canal.

Scientific
Discovery '
All Disease Germs to be Driven From
Human Body.

"A new substance has just been
brought into existence that will
drive from the human body all
germs of every known disease.
This quality was discovered by acci-
dent by Professor Either, in expert
menting with the famous COG, a
specific which Professor Paul
Ehrlich of Frankfort presented early
last year to medical science.
In my opinion it is the most
wonderful Christmas present ever
given the people of the world
Thus spoke Dr.. Samuel w. Lam
bert, dean of the College Of Physf-
clans and Surgeons of New York,
noted physician and leader in lis
profession, today.
He seemed enthusiastic over the
great find that he himself and
others of the medical fraternity
learned of.
The greatest discovery in medi-
cine announced in 1910, continued
DR.. Lambert. was COG. From it
came the new remedy just an
nounced to the medical profession.
Only paragraph has appeared
SO far in regard to it.
The Journal Of the American
Medical Association, in the issue of
December 18th, stated, after refer
ring to disturbances in the body Of
the patient after the use Of 606.
Either never used methyl al
cohol, so that the disturbances can
not be explained in this way. He
used for the injection a mixture of
what was left in two tubes of the
COG, the rest of the contents of the
vial having been used in another
case.
The tips of the tubes were
fused again to protect the remain
ing contents, and he thinks that
the heat applied in the fusing must
have modified the drug within in
some way to render it more toxic.
Experiments on animals with
COG after it had been heated seem
TO confirm this assumption of a
toxic modification of the drug under
the influence of heat
This is new idea,' continued
DR.. Lambert. 1t means SO much
that fear it will sound exagger-
ated. You can readily understand
what the driving of disease germs
from the human body means. 1t
is, as l have said, the greatest
thing in the line of medical research
that has been brought to usage and
overshadows the other wonder,
6O6."
All members of the medical pro-
fession are most interested and
highly delighted with the outcome
Of Professor Eitner's accidental dis
covery. To say that it will mean
revolution in surgery and medicine
is to put the question in a mild
form.

Two Mormon Elders Attempt to Cross
GuIch, One Is Lost.

Wednesday morning two Mormon
Elders, named McMasters and
Curtman set out on mules from XII
pahulu to go to Kaupo. The trail
was bad after the heavy rains, and
in many places was almost impassi-

slowly until Alelele gulch was to be
crossed. A torrent of water was
rushing through the gulch. Being
malihinis in that region, and not
realizing the danger Curtman start
ed his mule across to the Kaupo
side. After he had gone a short
distance, to the horror Of McMas-
ters, Curtman's mule was seen to
loose its footing. and almost before
he realized it, man and mule were
being rushed over a precipice about
800 feet high. From the place where
the accident happened to the open

hastened back to Kipahulu and no.

searching for some trace of the
body, but without success up to the
time of our going to press.
The trousers worn by Curtman
have been recovered, together with
his watch which was in the trousers
pocket. The body Of the mule can
be seen floating in the pool, with
the saddle still attached. Natives

Commercial
Happenings
Racy News From the Capitol Regard
ing Sugar Stock.
By L. D. Timmons.
Honolulu, Jan. 10.

Honolulu, Jan. ~.
Sugar today is 1875 in New
York, or within eight cents per
hundred of the highest low estimate
submitted sometime ago. Taking
past, years as an example, figured
together with the general sugar
situation throughout the world, the
decline will probably continue until
about the Goth of February. In
the meanwhile recoveries in spots
are likely, SO that the general aver
age will probably not go far away
from the original figures $3.50.
The sale of one entire Cuban crop
at 3.61, reported in this column
some time ago, created considerable
discussion here, and some OF the
more prominent sugar men stated
at once that they would feel dispos-
ed to consider similar proposition.
1t would be a gamble at best, how
ever, with quite chance that Ha-
waii would get the worst OF it in a
deal covering 80 long a period of
time. Even allowing for the re-
markable changes in the price Of
sugar during last year, there are
those here who anticipate q consid-
cradle rally in the market after
February.
rrE srock MARKET.
Considering the price Of raws in
New York, stocks are behaving
quite we'll. While figures are not
high, few shares are on the market
and it is very hard to obtain any
thing like large blocks Of stock at
all. In fact, Stock Exchange figures
hardly show tile actual condition OF
the market, inasmuch as they indi-
cate the buying and selling bases OF
small holders and would count for
little in a large deal. To explain:
Hawaiian Commercial is today $34
bid and $3.50 asked, for small
blocks of 5, 10 or 25 shares. But
if a man were in the market for
1000 or 5000 shares he could not
hope to get it for less than $36 or
$37. The same istrue of Pioneer,
while any effort to obtain large
blocks of Paia or Haiku would un-
cover the fact that an astOnishingly
large price per share must be paid.
These observations extend with
equal accuracy to Eva, Oahu and
some other active stocks.
nAwAnAn coMMEnciAL.
Hawaiian Commercial is again
stronger in the San Francisco mar
ket than here, due. it is said, to de-
mands for large blocks over there.
The closing figure last Wednesday
was $33 25 bid. On Thursday
there was an advance to $33. .75 bid
and 4.50 asked. During all this
period, it is to be noted, there were
no Sales, indicating firmness on the
part. of holders.
On Thursday Hawaiian CONNER
cial paid a dividend of 25 cents a
share, the total amount disbursed
being.s10O, 900.
pioNEERM MLL.
Pioneer stock has remained at
t175 bid since last report. On Sa-
turday some Of the stock was offered

vanced their figures to 1882 so, at
which the stock is now held.

The Board of Supervisors were in
session this week. Nothing of es-

appointment of a number of road
officers taking up their attention.
Mr.. Hadley was before the Board
Friday with his maps. asking for an

what they proposed to do regarding
the lighting of Wailuku. After
slight discussion the matter was re-
ferred to the Committee on Public
Improvements. We publish below

Upon his return to Honolulu DR..
Pratt reported health conditions ON
the island of Maui as very satis-
factory. He anticipates that all
restrictions may be removed in a
very few days. The appearance of
scarlet fever over there was not a
surprise, inasmuch as scarlet fever
almost invariably follows in the
wake of diphtheria. Pratt seems to
feel that the little scare-despite its
temporary inconveniences--has been
a blessing to Maui in disguise, for
it has resulted in the cleaning up Of
certain places which might have
been a menace to health in the
future.
