SUGAR MEN HAPPY;
STOCK MARKET RISES

The stock market yesterday showed
much activity, with rising tendency.
The predictions of Edward POLITE that
the 1912 crop of sugar would command
an average price of five cents has serv-
ed to encourage sugar men good deal,
though there was disposition among
nome of the brokers TO think that Pol
hits fignre was bit too high. 1t APP
pears to be the general opinion, how
ever, that the San Francisco broker Is
optimistic views are not lacking in good
foundation, and the general tone was
most cheerful.
Waialua and Oahu were specially ac-
tive yesterday, and Olaa showed on
the list of sales with rising tendency.
Olaa, according to reports, is coming
TO the front in fine shape, and brokers
say that the long campaign for its es-
tahlishment on a successful basis is now
showing results.
The days dealings closed with ris-

CONFLICTING TALES
IN MURDER CASE
Chinaman viii Probably Be Ex-
onerated for Killing
of 0ki.

The coroner's jury investigating the
supposed murder of G. OlSi by China
man at Aiea, is to have some exciting
times when it settles down to take the
complete evidence. 1t is to have a
session tonight in which it will get
through with as much of its work as
is possible, but may have to adjourn
nesses are still in the hospital from the
wounds received in the fight in which
Oki was killed.
The Japanese and Chinese witnesses
tell story opposite in every detail
One japanese who was stabbed, states
that he was dressing in his house on
one side of the railroad track and saw
the fight going on in the middle of the
road short ways down the track. He
saw Oki stabbed and fall, and the
Chinaman take the knife out of his
body. He then ran down to join in
and according to his story, the China
man took the knife out of the body
again and stabbed him. As he pro.
vides entirely too many knives in the
ease, his story is discredited from the
start. The other Japanese, however,
tell materially the same story.
The Chinaman, now in Jail awaiting
charges, states that the assault on him
took place first in hollow in the yard
back of his house. His house and ward
are not only on the other side of the
track from the Japanese's house, but
on the opposite side of a big flume
which is raised above the level of the
ground.
After he was first assaulted, he says,
he rushed into the house where he was
again attacked by the Japanese. He
picked up a knife and struck at his
assailants and it was there, he saws.
that he gave oki his death wound.
The police give entire credence to his
story. There were number of other
Chinese witnesses who tell it in ex.
actly the same way as he does. There
has been absolutely no communication
between the prisoner and his friends
as Immediately after the fight he
jumped out of the window and ran into
the cane field for his life. He made
his way directly to the manager Is
house and then to the deputy sheriff
and gave himself up. a
He viii undoubtedly be charged with
murder by the police as formality;,
but the grand jury is expected to re,
turn no bill.

the prospective warm months OF the

The farmhouse will be transformed

SIMS INVESTIGATES
HIS OWN AVOIRDUPOIS
Tennessee Statesman Falls Out
Out Of Chair, Which Arouses
His Curiosity.

Congressman Thetus Willrette Sims OF
Tennessee weighed himself this morning
and there's reason. Mr.. Sims is one
of the more portly members of the
House. During the deliberations OF
that great body yesterday the Tennes-
see member fell out of a chair, greatly
disturbing the calm and dignity of the
House. Scores of members feared that
Mr.. Sims had tainted and they rushed
over to his PROSTATE form.
Mr.. Sims was all right. caster OF
the chair had merely been broken and
the bulky form of the Tennessee states
men had suffered fall. He shook him.
self, took another chair, and the House
quieted down and pursued the even tenor
OF his way.
Early this morning Congressman Sims
walked solemnly into a downtown drug
store. He didn't buy anything, nor did
he even look at the clock. He walked
straight to the scales, placed himself
thereupon and weighted. Then he
walked hurriedly out of the place
To the onlooker at a respectful dis
tance 1t appeared that the Tennessee
member tipped the beam at 270. or close
thereto. At any rate, the figure should
Tot be placed higher than that. for Mr..
Sims is not a tall man and his equator
ial dimensions are ample enough to sat
tSfy anyone.
