The PICNIC At DAPHNE

Folks There

Probably the greatest picnic eXcur-
sion that ever left Amaricus, and GER
tainly one of the most enjoyable occa-
sions in the c.ty's history was that OF
the First Methodist Sunday school at
Daphne Park yesterday. The day was
bright and the weather ideal for sucn
day in the woods, and Americus lit
tie folks-hundreds Of them, enjoyed
it thoroughly. A crowded train Of ten
or twelve coaches carried the picnick-
ers to the beautiful park, where every
arrangement for comfort and pleasure
awaited. A sumptuous dinner was thar
spread at noon, of course, and twelve
hundred hungry picnickers did ample
justice thereto. The day passed with
out accident or casualty, the special
train returning here la;e in the even

MANY RACERS IN THE
TIMESsRECORDER CONTEST
COURTMARTIAL NEVARRO
FOR SURRENDERING ARMY
Ais Men Had Been Two DAYS
Without Food

Juarez, Mexico, May 12.-Six cases
of typhus have been discovered in the
federal hospital being used by the
soldiers One man died of the dis
ease and the five other patients were
removed to another part of the town
and quarantined.
There are also two cases of typhoid
fever in the hospital.
Americans returning here from Chi
huahua by automobile today reported
that General Rabago, with about 800
federal soldiers, was still at Terfrasas,
about 200 miles south of here, await
ing orders. An insurrecto force Of
about 250 men left here to meet them
should they advance.
The students are said to have
planned a political demonstration and
precautionary measures were taken by
the government. Police guards on
the streets were increased and a re-
serve force held in readiness for any
eventuality.
The officials of the war depart
ment declined today to predict that
any action would be taken toward
General Navarro as a result of his
of Juarez, but it is said that
his behavior did not receive the ap-
proval of his superiors. 1t is re-
ported here that he will be tried by
courtmartial for the surrender of
Juarez and that the court will sit in
Chihuahua within a few days.
Notwithstanding that press reports
from Ell Paso indicated that Navarro
made a heroic stand, the fact that
he displayed the white flag when ap-
parently in good fighting condition is
widely commented upon as remark
able.
1t is believed that the evidence to
be developed by the courtmartial may
vindicate him, as it is understood that
q portion of his command fought two
days without food or drink, and some
reports have it that Navarro handed
his sword to Colonel Garibaldi only
when the suffering Of his men was
such that he could no longer endure
the sight, hardened campaigner though
he is

MISUNDERSTANDING CARGO.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 20
The largest single importation of du-
table goods into this port was record
ed at the custom-house yesterday,
when representatives of the Califor-
nia-Hawaiian Sugar Refinery paid
$4,000 as estimated duty on 1868
600 pounds of sugar from Java. This
was the cargo of the Norwegian
steamer Auguste, which arrived day
or two ago. 1t is expected that the
liquidated duties will amount to more
than 100000.

CROPS BELOW AVERAGE.

Bradstreets.-The favorable turn to
the weather in the late summer and
early fall as pointed out in these
columns, favored the late maturing
crops, hence a slight improvement was
to have been expected. The depart
ment of agriculture as Of October /
showed that the condition of late
crops was only l3 per cent below the
average, as against 10 per cent on
September /. Cotton ands fax are
exceptions to the very general ten
dency toward a decrease in yields
this year as compared with last. All
the cereals fell off, oats leading and
p winter wheat showing the smallest
decrease. Cereals as a whole decreas-
ed 13 per cent from last year. Hay
and potatoes decreased % per cent,
tobacco q per cent and rice s per
cent. The south as a section has the
best crop yield, but this advantage is
modified by lower prices. The de.
partment of agriculture shows that
despite short yields the prices Of eigh'
teen out of twenty-seven leading farm
products were lower in early harvest
time this year than last.

DEMAND WEAK
BUT PRICES FIRM

Demand was weak on the Exchange
this morning. Prices held fairly well
but of the 80 shares of Olaa and 10
of Hawaiian Pineapple which made
up the extent of trading during the
session, there was plenty more at the
same price offered. The price of 500
for Pineapple, however, is an advance
of four points over the last sale, about
two weeks ago, and sets a new Hight
water mark for this stock. Olaa, on
the other hand, has lost two points

have noticed enough that we must
get rid of the mosquito and get rid of

there was a committee of about 500

AND NEW CROPS

The American-Hawaiian S. S. 18th
milan, which arrived yesterday from
the Coast, will sail again on the 10Th
with about $500 tons of sugar, about
1000 tons of which will be of the 1912
crop. This will be contributed by the
Kahuku and Kekaha, and possibly
some from the Kahului plantations.
The $500 tons of 1911 sugar forming
the bulk Of the cargo will clean up
all of the old crop, with the exception
Of possibly a few hundred odd tons
which will probably go in with the
new crop. The Isthmian will go to
Hilo on Wednesday, but will return

BUSINESS VIEW

Real estate men take rather
gloomy view of the yellow fever stu

the belief that values will suffer I'M
less the single case at present should
develop others They feel, however,
that even the one case may tend to-
dullness in the demand for property,
which has been exceedingly good dur
ing the past summer and fall. The
effect upon the tourist business 1t is
believed will be disastrous, unless the
city can be quickly and radically clean

Their spread of the disease The tour
list class has not only come to be an
important consideration on the part
of the retail trade, but the real es-
tate market has also felt the stimulus
both through the investments by ma
lihinis and in the increased demand
tourists cause for renting properties.
| The outlook for the coming winter
until now has been the best in the
history of the Territory.
Brokers generally do not believe
/ that the yellow fever scare is going

to any great extent. Practically all
have announced the intention of dis
couraging any tendency towards a

1T is improbable that he was bitten

and probably the only mosquitoes af-
fected if any, are around the house.
I think there is very little chance Of
a secondary case. The guards are in
structed to guard the roads and not
to enter the area of possible infection.
It is difficult to see how an epidemic
should spread, unless one of the
guards disobey orders and goes into
the forbidden area"

it had cost the municipality 100000
to eXterminate the mosquitoes and
that it was done in a period of nine
