COTTON MARKET.

New York. Nov. 2-The cotton market was strong
to-day, though dull. WhA remains Of the large
short interest appears to be stubborn and the buy
ing locks like accumulation Of New York contracts
based on the strength Of Southern spot markets.
The movement Of cotton to the ports Is very heavy,
and exports now amount TO over 100000 bales. as
against $4,000 bales for the period last year
which is since September l. The probable size Of
the crop Il under renewed discussion as result

now unlikely that over ni50.ooo bales viii Be the
total Of the next report In previous the total
ginned after that date has averaged 10000 bales,
and ginning retuTna have nearly always been less
than the total yield. These reflections would seem

L. & n. Capital Increase. >

Henry Walters and his associates m
control Of Louisville and Nashville have
under consideration, it is understood. q
plan to increase the roads capital stock
from $50, 10000 to s1OO,O0OOOO.
The plan now being considered con-
templates a probable Issuance OF S40.-
100000 worth of new stock to sharehold-
ers at par, and at the same time dis
tribute S2O,OOO.OO0 surplus, which could be
used in paying for one-half of the new
stock.
Thus the new issue Is equal to Cf2-3
per cent OF the present capital, and
would issue to shareholders at a net Of
$50 per share, the company paying one
half from surplus and canceling $780,,
100000 OF the surplus account.
At ruling market quotations such a
distribution would be a rich melon to
the Louisville and Nashville holders,
equivalent to So a share.

FINANCIAL GOSSIP

With more extensive liquidation than
for weeks, Railway common proved the
leader, both in activity and strength, at
yesterdays session of the local ex-
change. Sales aggregating 625 shares
were made on a range between IS 81 and
IS 1-2, most of the transactions involv-
ing quotation lots and several deals
transferring 100 share blocks. The selling
opened at IS "a, at which level 100 shares
were traded in. Then the price dropped
to 46 IL, rallying shortly after to IS 5-S,
the closing price. Preferred was steady,
but figured only lightly in the trading.
Washington Gas was weak, selling on
a downward range between IS IL and Sc.
In the face of encouraging reports Of the
condition of the company, the present
and apparently continuing weakness is
taken by many as an indication Of an
undertow Of bearish influence.
Traction warrants continued the show
OF additional strength by advancing to a
firm stand at IA Liquidation was freer
than Wednesday, too.

CALL FOR FUNDS FOR
RED CROSS WORK

The Advertiser, in company with
the Bulletin and the Star, has been
requested to receive whatever contri;
buttons Honolulans generally wish to
make toward the local Chinese Red
Cross fund, which is to be forwarded
to the seat of war in the Orient to
relieve suffering among the sick and
wounded of the armies and among the
homeless refugees crowded into the
treaty ports.
The Advertiser will be glad to re-
ceive and acknowledge any cOntribu-
tions for this cause sent in.
The call for subscriptions is as fol.
lows:
Editor Advertiser is now well
known to many of the readers of your
paper the Chinese of Honolulu, and
of the Territory as we'll, are carrying
forward most enthusiastically a cam
paign for the raising of funds to be
forwarded to the Red Cross Society in
China to aid the wounded, sick, and
destitute in that country at this criti-
cal time in its history.
Our Chinese friends are only too
glad to meet, so far as it lies in their
power, the urgent demand of the hour.
If, however, there should be those of
other nationalities, who would be
pleased to assist in this noble work of
philanthrophy their gifts will be most
gratefully received. Should you deem
it advisable to given an opportunity to
such to aid by sending their donations
to your paper, publishing daily for a
week or two to come, their names in
your columns such courtesy on your
part would be deeply appreciated. All
funds will be cared for by responsible
agents and will be forwarded as soon
as possible to China.
The suffering at the present time in
China not only among the troops in
the field but of the refugees men,
women and children is indescribable.
Some two hundred thousand of the lat
ter are said to be in Shanghai alone.
Daily the Chinese ladies of the city
meet at the Chinese United Society
Clubhouse on King street and are bust
ly engaged in making bandages and
other appliances to aid in the good
work of the Red Cross Society. They
Will WoASohe Biduiy OtheI lauleb' OF tne
city who may care to join them every
afternoon Of the week from two to -four
clock.
In this tremendous struggle of a
great people for the priceless boon OF
liberty, surely the heart of every true
man and woman must beat in loyal
accord.
The work of the Red Cross Society
reaches ont to friend and foe the hand
of sympathy and never more truly thar
at this blessed Christmas time. BY
aiding this Christ-like work we are
hastening the coming of that glorious
day when
"The battle flags are furled
elm the Parliament Of Man,
"The Federation Of the World. ,
With sineerest thanks foy your kind
ness Ia forwarding this good work ant
on behalf of the Chinese dwellers n
Hawaii. Yours truly,
FRANCIS W. DAMON.

SUGAR IS TERMED
FOE TO LAZINESS

CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts,, No.
vember 19.-If one would be good look
ing and at the same time well nourish-
ed, he has but to follow the rules laid
down by DR.. Alpheus G. Woodman, as
sistant professor of food anlysis at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology,
and eat sugar.
1T is the food of civilization, {" says
DR.. Woodman, thus upholding the
opinion vouehsafed recently by DR..
Harvey w. Wiley, chief of the govern
ment Is chemistry bureau. Persons
who have enough sugar in their food, -
he continued, care better nourished
and better looking as well as more
energetic than those who neglect
carbohydrates in their dietary.
Carbohydrates as contained in
sugars are very quickly assimiIated
and thus as much energy is not ex-
pended in the process of digestion as in
other foods. For example, in the selee-
tion of stimulant TO give an athlete
just before he enters race, there is
nothing better than few Jumps of
sugar.
"Sugar is the best and cheapest
form of energy" DIR. Woodman CON
cludes, ESQ it may not be surprising
that its use has increased with the
ascent of peoples from savagery into
civilization. Probably lack of knowl-
edge as to how sugar may be procured
has handicapped the savage in adding
more of this food to his diet. -

alarm among them over the pending
war.
Now Shimada has new scheme,
something which has impressed few
eredulous local japanese and is the sub
ject of many laugh among those of
average common sense. The orator
author has launched himself as a can
drdate for the Japanese diet to repre-
sent Hawaii. He stands about as much
chance of ever egtting within sound
of the diet as the rich man has of
scraping through the needles eye, but
his game is good enough to have raised
him a thousand dollars among the Jap
anese of Hawaii, Maui and Honolulu.
His spiel is that he is going to Toxic
to induce the Japanese government to
take off the restrictions placed against
Japanese laborers coming to Hawaii
The Japanese press is paying absolutely
no attention to the man and to his col
lecting campaign, except by way of
passing jest. 1t may be, however, that
publicity will break up his graft. There
may be nothing illegal in his campaign
for funds, but it will stand investiga-
tiOn.

ADULTERATED GRAIN
BEING EXAMINED

Four thousand bags of barley, recent
ly received here from San Francisco,
are being Investigated by Food Commis-
sioner Il. b. Blanchard, and the indiea-
tions are that the stuff win be seized
ON account of adulterations, though the
commissioner says he has not yet fin.
ally determined what to do.
''The sO-ealled barley appears to con.
tain considerable wheat, said Blaneh-
ard, and wheat is worth about ten dol
lars ton less than barley. Hence, if
stuI containing wheat is sold as barley,
there is violation Of the federal law.
This barley also seems to have some
cat shells
