Companys market letter for the cur
rent week: .
Honolulu, April 2S, 1911.
There was but little in the way of
new developments to cause any
change in the condition of the stock
market during the week.
Sugar prices weakened somewhat,
judging from the quotations received
on beets. none having come to hand
on centrifugals, but this was not
enough to cause any weakening in
values.
Reports from nearly all the planta-
lions are of a very encouraging ma
lures and would naturally go far to
Offset any adverse reports emanating
from other causes such as labor short
age, tariff agitation, etc.
AS an indication of this, we wish TO
call your attention to the purchase of
about 5000 shares of McBryde by the
same interests who recently made
other large purchases of this stock.
The reports from this plantation are
particularly encouraging and the final
successful outcome now seems but a
matter of time. The many Difficult
ties this plantation has experienced
are gradually being overcome.
Waialua is still in considerable de
mand and was traded in quite exten
sively during the week. Oahu fluctu
ated between $50 and $3.50, with
seles today on the street at $50. Eve
is inactive, but can be bought arount
$31.25. H. c. & S. Co. sold freely
at $3.50 and is now offered at this
figure. Pioneer remains at $2O5, witt
but few sales. Olaa sold today a
1875, at which figure all recent sales
have been made.
Yours truly,

MIsER's GIFT GOOD AT LAW
Woman Wins Fight for Bequest on Su-
preme Court Reversal.

The Supreme Court wes reversed yester
day by the Appellate Division, the Supreme
Court having dismissed the suit OF Mrs.
Catherine v Thoma against the Irving
Savings Institution and Agnes J. Rogers
10 recover money left % her by William
Rogers of Long Branch, who was known
as a miser The money was left to her in
a written agreement, but the lower court
decided that Rogers was mentally incom-
petent and that therefore the agreement
was without force. The Appellate Division
held there was no evidence to support this
contention.
Rogers was about seventy years old, and
when he died left about $4,000 in various
savings banks In this city. He had a
brother and sister here. The evidence
showed that I'm the last twenty-five years
he spent little or nothing for living ex-
penses preferring 30 beg his way.
