corporation should allow its plant to

These amounts were charged up on

On the EVA side of the field, where

most prominent island people were
present in force and the Governor of

On the Honolulu side of the field
were gathered all the sportsmen of

of opinion seemed to be that Maui

Maui beat the Fifth Cavalry at polo
yesterday by score of 1o& to 3.
1t was a much better game than the
score would indicate, and the Cavalry
should have made total of at least
six goals. They failed at critical mo-
ments, and the score tells the sorry
tale. The Mauians hit eleven clean
goals. and the quarter deduction was
caused by safety hit in the first
period.
The Mani men were on the job, and
the way the goals went showed how
well they were onto their work. Col
Inns hit three goals and was busy, be-
tween times, riding his man off. Har-
old Rice, who played number two,
scored no less than four times. he
was brilliant in the extreme, and his
horsem anship and pluck captivated
everybody.
Frank Baldwin, the Maui captain,
who was playing in number three posi-
tion, hit three goals. He was as usual
daring and dashing, and he did fine
work for his team. d. Fleming, num-
Der four for Maui, realized his tough

Eighth Chukka.

The eighth and last chukka was re.
markable for hard riding and scoring,
The Maui men Were on their mettle,
and the Cavalry were out to DO or die.
1t was one great rushing go from start
TO finish and, right at the beginning,
Frank Baldwin scored in twenty-five
seconds of play. That was going some,
and the score was then ga to 2, in
favor of Maui.
Then the hopes of the Cavalry were
raised, and Sheridan scored great goal
for his team; it was just ! minute and
o seconds after the start Of the period.
Once more the Maui men attacked
and, when the rush was over, IL was
found that Frank Baldwin had scored,
just 4 minutes and 90 seconds after
the whistle. The goal WAS made from
n very difficult angle, and was the re-.
suit of great bit of play. The score
was them Maui, o 3-4i Cavalry, 3.
The last score of the match was
made by Harold Rice who, just min.
utes 20 seconds after the start Of the
ehukka, scored hia fourth goal of tho
match. The bell went soon after this,

a polo field and he has many admirers
He scored one goal for Maui.
For the Cavalry all four men played
good polo. Sheridan got some fine
drives in, and he made the best of his
mounts. Hanson was, as usual, on the
ball from start to finish Forsyth was
brilliant at times and then faded away.
Doak really played beautiful game,
and he and Sheridan were the scorers
for the Cavalry. Hanson was well tax
en- care of and, although he did good
work, the combination was too strong
for him. The better team won, fairly
easy, and that was all there was to it,.
The goals scored and the men who
did the trick were as follows: Maui
A. Collins, g.; Harold Rice, 4; F. f.
Baldwin, 3; D. Fleming, l. Fifth Cav
alry-Sheridan, 2; Doak, 1.
The safety that reduced the Maui
score by one-quarter, was hit by Frank
Baldwin. 1t was made after an excit-
ing scrilnmage in the first period and,
after all, did not amount to much. 1t
was not another affair like that of Sat
urday last, when safety meant a
game!
Maui Confident.
Maui yesterday was satisfied that
with better string of ponies and the
team in as good form as ON Saturday
Last, the Fifth Cavalry four would
have to knuckle under on the Moana-
Iua field. And it turned out that way,
Maui was too strong and, although the
gallant officers of the Fifth did their
very best, the score tells almost the
whole story.

Harold Rice covered himself with
glory in the seventh. He hit a goal
fifty seconds after the start, and did
most of the work himself. Fleming
also was doing great work and. on one
occasion, he hit the ball five times run

ing's career. Frank Baldwin was on
the job and, although Hanson did his
best, the Maui captain centered to

SUGAR STRONGER
AN IS ASKED
Senate Will Probably Pass Lodge
or Smoot Bill Says Private
Cablegram.

A New York cablegram received yes
terday by Alexander g. Baldwin reads
as follows:
"Kentuckian arrived today, basis
4.05. Holders of raws are asking All;
refners are bidding 405. october
beets los I'd. Favorable weather in
Europe, but rains wanted badly in east
ern Germany
"Senate is likely to pass some sugar
legislation. Probably Lodge or Smoot
bill.'
The Kentuckian mad the last half of
the Missourian's cargo, consisting of
but 1929 tons. The first half of this
cargo arrived some time ago and com
prised ZOO tons.
From this cable it would appear that
there are very strong prospects of sugar
continuing to advance. 1t is believed
in some quarters that raws will sell
around five cents within a couple of
months.
The Lodge Bill.
The Lodge Bill, one of the two favor
ed by the senate majority, removes the
Dutch Standard and refners' differen,
tial, but retains the present rate of
duty on raw sugar.
The Smoot Bill, which was prepared
some months ago and its adoption
urged upon the committee, provides for
the elimination of the Dutch Standard
and the refiners' differential and for a
small reduction on raw sugar. Starting
with duty of 80 cents per hundred ON
| 75-degree sugar, it increases the rate
three cents per hundred for each addi-
tional degree, which brings the duty
out Mt $15S on 96degree sugar, re-
duction from the present duty on non
iconcessionary sugar of 10 1-2 cents per
hundred. 1t reduces the rate on Ciban
96-degree sugar from $l.34S, to $1.264,
or s,4 cents per hundred.

off for mounts than last week. This
news was received with JOY, and the
iervent hope was expressed that no
accident or sudden illness would over
take the ponies from good old Maui.
Fifth Very Confident.
The Fifth Cavalry ponies all looked
well and the players seemed confident
that their mounts would last them
through hard fought battle. 1t was
very evident that the captains of both
teams looked for win and as unfor-
tunately that is impossible, the lockers
on wondered which team would go
home disappointed.
Captain Frank Baldwin, when seen
before the game started, remarked to
The Advertiser representative: "Well,
we have no kick coming about our
ponies today | have Boy Blue in COM

the pony question will not trouble us
today
Harold Rice had hard luck, however,
as his Giant Powder has broken down
and will be no use hereafter. Ajax,
another of Rice's string, is also under
the weather, but no permanent bad re-
suits are anticipated.
Conference on Rules.
Before the game started, there was
conference between Captains Bald
win and Forsyth and Referee Naylor.
1t did not take long to arrange mat
tiers, and it was decided to play eight
chukkas of seven and one-half min
] utes each. Intervals of three minutes
We're arranged for between the chuk.
kas, and it was decided to rest for ten
minutes between the fourth and fifth
periods.
1t was also decided that should a
player come TO grief, the game should
be stopped. Injured horses would also
call for time, as would broken bits.
These arrangements were all agreed to
by the respective captains, and then it
was time to start the game, Just be.
fore the first throw in, Captain Forsyth
remarked TO Captain Baldwin! well,
Mr., Baldwin, ! hope we will have the
pleasure Of playing an extra chukka
against you, like the Oahns did last
Saturday "That would be fine, -
was the reply of the Maui captain.

toward the Cavalry goal and then Har

looked bad. His pony came down and
rolled over its rider who, however,
quickly jumped to his feet and re-
mounted. Time was allowed oil for
the accident, and then the attack on
the Cavalry goal was resumed. Frank
Baldwin, who was playing like a wnirl
wind, came along with an irresistible
run and, hitting like pile driver,
scored for Maui, just two minutes after
the start of the game. Arthur Collins
then did his part of the work and, al
though Hanson and Forsyth were per
forming wonders, the Maui man hit
the second goal for his team. The see
