MOTT--SMITH IS
ON DECK AGAIN

President Mott-Smith, of the Board
of Health, is at his desk again this
morning after an absence of a week
on account of a severe attack of grip.
Mr.. MottSmith states, that he has
been keeping in touch with events
from his Waialae home, and that he
thinks the perspective has been good
for him. He purposes now to take up
some of the larger problems of the
Boards work, first in which is proba-
bly, the putting to work of the $780,
600 revolving fund, appropriated by
the last legislature for reclamation of
insanitary low lands in the city.

OAHU The MOST
ACTIVE STOCK

Oahu is the most active sugar stock
on the list today, being represented
in eighty-five shares at $31 25, all but
five shares on the board. The price
is the closing one of last week. Olaa
holds at 4.625 in a sale of fifty
shares. The only other sale on the
board was five Pineapple at $3S rs,
showing no change. Between boards
besides the Oahu already mentioned,
the only stocks sold were fifty Ha-
waiian Commercial q $3S .375, un-
changed, and twenty-five Eva at 1872,
last weeks closing price. AlcBryde
skies brought SO for $4,000 and $1,000.
There were two errors in the divi.
dend list as printed on Saturdays
sheet. Instead of 15c a share Ha-
waiian Sugar Co. pays SOC, making
$4,000 and instead of SOC Walalua
pays 75c, making $33,75O.

PAST SIX MONTHS
SAPP0INTING

Bradstreet's, July IA quiet week
in trade and industry ends six
months period which has proved
rather disappointing to the business
community. Business as a whole is of
a midsummer character, weather
and temperatures aiding retail trade
in a volume about equal to a year
ago, while jobbing and wholesale trade
is conservatively quiet, awaiting
clearer views of crop outturn and of
tariff changes. AS for the former it
may be said that early bOunteous
promise for cereal crops has not been
maintained, but that, excepting oats,
hay and early vegetable crops, the
outlook is still for good though not
record-breaking yields
Exact half-yearly statistical meas
ures of trade are still to be compiled,
but the rather less satisfactory than
expected earlier results of the FIRST
six months may be seen in an approx
innate loss of 10 per cent in clear
ings, with an increase in the number
and liabilities of failures as compar-
ed with the first halves of the past
two years. Foreign trade for the fis-
cal year will make a new high record,
owing mainly to the expansion in ex-
ports offsetting a slight decrease in
imports. Higher prices for cotton eX,
ports, increased takings of manufact'
ured goods, and last, but not least
lower prices for foodstuffs, are all re-
fiected in the larger volume of export
trade.

TO MAKE THINGS GO.

The boy of the family, the smart
little son of an editor, had just passed
his ninth birthday, and delighted in
stirring things up whenever he found
a chance. On his way to school one
day he popped into a confectioner's.
Say, mister" he called out, do you
keep ginger nuts?" "Oh, yes" replied
the confectioner, we've kept them for
years" We'll" returned the boy,
starting for the door, 'just advertise
in pas paper, and then you won't
keep them so long"

Hongkong Maru From the Orient
The HOngkong Maru arrived yes
terday morning from the Orient after
an extremely pleasant trip. She is en-
route to South American ports, and
has a full cargo of $500 tons under
her matches. She had to refuse cargo
all along, the officers on board report.
Had she desired she could have filled
up at Hongkong, but it was preferred
to give Japan an opportunity of ship
ping, so a certain amount of room was
allotted to Japan ports.
The voyage over was a pleasant
one, and during the passage the Man
churia overlook the Hongkong Maru,
while she later passed H. NJ. S. Kent
and the Kiyo Maru, both bound for
the Orient. She has on board for
South America seven first cabin pas
sengers, two Chinese, four Japanese
and a German, fifty-one Chinese and
Japanese in the second-class and 1876

She has no cargo for here, but is

leave for Mexico at five this after
noon.

BUSINESS COURT
Suggests Appointment of Committee sQ eaay ihe - iaN.
 SoFs EBt 8-

washington. i x. Hafkins. director nf hs st tes szsal corporation, told the Sen ter state commerce committee today that the practical way to give the country's big business enterprises relief from unce-- tainty and depression would be to cre- ate in the commerce and labor depart ment business court, or controlling com mission, with power to license corpora tions doing interstate or international business
 Violations of regulations laid down by such commission, he urged, should be punishable by Imprisonment of individI- als, rather than by revocation of H. censes
 Mir Perkins said this commission, or court, should be composed largely of eX- perienced business men. Ability to comply with conditions laid down by Congress In creating the commission and with reg ulatons prescribed itself, he declared should be the test of an applicant for H. oense. Publicity both before and after licensing should be the essential feature of these regulations, and every company should be required to secure the approval by the commission of all it's affairs from capitalization to business practice.
 Mir Perkins suggested that in the be- ginning only broad principles be laid down, with view to elaborating and perfecting them as conditions require.
 After proposing his plan for immediate relief, Mir. Perkins offered another for I, lot. appointment of a commission to study the Sherman law and the various suGges- tions that have been made regarding it's repeal, amendment ana amplification, and to report upon the wisdom and practl- cablity of national incorporation act.
 @Any one familiar with present business conditions in this country, both as to do- mestic and foreign trade," said MT. Per- kins, realizes that the brakes are on. We are not expanding our domestic trade to the extent we should. New England enterprises are not being undertaken as freely as they should be, while Germany, Canada and other countries are forging ahead with their in1utrial plans.
 ''The reason for this attitude on our part arises largely from the fear engen- dered by prosecutions under the Sher- man act. The business mans local com plaint now is that he does not know when be Is right or otherwise when he is wrong; that this can not be known until his case reaches the court, and that as matters now stand he does not know whether he is a good citizen or a crim- inal.
 We are now collecting taxes from cor poratons which in itself is the first step in establishing the principle of publicity between corporations and government in advance It ought not to he difficult, therefore, to ir rnrtIsts.g nA )and the powers of the CsnafinaHL commerce and labor with rsRsr5 su psalcity.

Brush,s Comment

New Orleans, December 13.-"This in nocent and harmless movement of the American League appears to me to have been devised to divert the attention of the public from Johnson's failure to make good his charges against the New York club" said John T. Brush, president of the New York Nationals, in a signed statement here today referring to the breaking of negotiations between the two major leagues in the matter Of world champion series Several times I have invited him to tell what he knew" said MT Brush. but he did not comply"
 The peace compact of 1905 did two things, according to the chief executive of the Giants It established the terri torial rights of the two major leagues and the status of the players at that time.
 "There is not one line or declaration in the two American leagues resolutions, continued MT Brush, that could not have been adopted at any time during the past seven or eight years by each major league And their statute under the national agreement would not nave been changed one iota.
 Tn executing territorial and player rights it reserves all the rights It ever had under the peace compact and the national agreement
 Newspapers have been burdened with Johnson's outraged feelings over the sale of tickets in New York and they credited him with saying that he would starte the baseball world with his expose when the investigation took place. Sev- eral times have invited him to tell what he knew, but he did not comply. He then invoked tie aid of the commission and the detective system of New York City and failed, and at last In his re- treat he has passed the whole business up to the general public to furnish the proof and Le has disappeared behind the resolutions

Greensboro, N. C., December 13.-Na- tional President C. s. Barrett, in an ad- dress before the state farmers union convention, today declared that the cot ton holding plan submitted by the finan- ciers was not in line with the proposition lie laid before them; that he thought they wanted too much, and that their restric- tions were harder than the farmers would be willing to submit to. He urged the farmers to reduce their acreage, raise their living, and thus get in position to hold their cotton. MT. Wilson, delegate from the state convention in Mississippi, addressed the convention on different modes of farming. Other addresses were made endorsing MT. Barrett's position.

OPTION GIVEN ON
 SHEPHERD TRACK

New York, December 13. - The Coney Island Jockey club has given an option on the Sheepshead Bay race track to a syndicate of capitalists for $S,009,0o0 and the property is to be cut up into resi- dence lots. This was the statement made today at a hearing before the tax con- missoners of Brooklyn, when an attor- ney appeared to protest against the as sessment on the track as too high.
 L. G. Reed, who appeared for the club, declared that there was no money in racing any more, and that the club is ready to quit At the end of the club directors meeting last Monday, he said a syndicate had been given an option on the famous old track. The plant con- tains about 430 acres

Lynch Reelected

With Brooklyn and Philadelphia oppos- ing, President Lynch was reelected, the losing candidate being Robert w. Brown. a Louisville newspaper man. James F.. Gaffney, who decided over night to buy
 the Boston club and did so, sat in the coun- cil, which also included a woman for the first time in it's hstory-Mrs. Helen Hathaway Britton, owner of the St. Louis club.
 The board of directors was reelected
 and Joseph O'Byrne and William Locke appointed committees of one on transpor- tation and hotels respectively. The re-
 mainder of the meeting was given over to informal discussion of various topics and
 the adoption of a resolution instructins
 the four clubs playing on home grounds
 on June Ii to observe Flag Day with fit | ting decoration of the grounds. | In short talks to the reporters, MT. | Gaffney and his new business manager, John M. Ward, promised to revivify the
 Boston club Energy and money to ac- | complish this would not be lacking, he
 said They expect to make the club a
 power to he reckoned with ultimately in
 the pennanr race.
 | The market in players was brisk and | trading was lively. The biggest reported | deal on was the negotiation for Providence | International league club, between Frank Navin, owner of the Detroit Americans,
 and T. J. Crowley. J. Lavis and Hugh Duffy. Negotiations, it was reported, had
 not closed tonight. Navin is reported to | have offered S65, ,0000 for the club. l The Newark International league club l bought first baseman Swacina from Mo- | bile, and it was reported that Cleveland was negotiating with Detroit to exchange | Stovall for Morarty.
