Falls Flat on Market.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2s.-Futures failed
to respond to better cables than due ant
more bullish weather news, the lis,
being under active selling by the ring
due to the rumor that Theodore Price
was out with an estimate of $4,000 O0(
bales and first prices were 5 to II points
lower on distant positions, off on De-
cember and up on October than Tues
days final.
There was lot of selling, which was
absorbed by a few spot houses. The
result was to points advance in late
positions from the initial range.
Later In the da ycables reported the
pressure of offerings and the market
refused to bull" despite tn Govern
ment predictions Of cloudy or snow
followed by much colder weather over
pied with cold wave and Gulf storm
over South Florida, moving northward
along the Atlantic Coast. Instead OF
a runaway advance, the market sold
stlll lower and during the forenoon the
list had widened its decline IL to IA
points, except October. which stood 2
points off
Cordill gave. the cue for lower mar

extremely bearish estimate, which in
1ected further ginger into the hearts of
the bears and they hammered aggrs-
sively to push the decline These con-
tracts fell in the hands of strong in
terests, checking the decline and during
the late forenoon prices rallied to the
opening quotations.
Heavy selling by disappointed longs
during the early afternoon, based on
the free offerings of spots abroad and
perhaps on the idea that bullish am

hausted: resulted in a general wave of

rather good, but the bull forces We're
inclined to let the manipulation run its
full course, believing that the strong
southeast winds indicated for the
southeastern portion of Gulf of Mexico
"a to 80 hours, which means more bad
weather for the cotton belt in the next
six days, will cut the yield still further
as well as lowering the grade, making
1t obvious that the crop promises to be
far below spinners' requirements, both
work still higher when spinners realize
the position they are in.
Short covering and buying by those

There is a world of interest in the
plaza plan, by the way. Real estate
men were heard Wednesday in gen.
eral commentator of the scheme
They assert that the property owners
along the 5000 feet of frontage of the
plaza could well afford to pay the
expense of the improvement, and that
the city would not have to pay cent.
\ bond issue by the city has been
suggested by John w. Grant, and his
idea is that the owners could pay the
interest and in so years retire the
principal.

Plan Public Market
In Traynham Block
Realty Man Opposes Scheme to Use
PIaza-lnterest In Movement
to Bridge Tracks.

Although there is a great deal Of
interest in the proposed city market,
half a dozen or more plans have been
suggested, and several people have
come out in opposition to the sug-
gestion that the site be on the pro-
posed plaza over the railroad tracks
W. D. Hoyt, of the Shelby Smith Real
Estate Agency, has plan for putting
the market on the Traynham block
bounded by Ivy, Decatur, Gilmer and
Washington streets, a two to four
story building erected at a cost of
$4,000 to 100000.
Mr.. Hoyt has had blue prints of
this scheme made, and is ready to
present them to the plaza and public
market committees. His idea Is that
the building might be used as head
quarters for the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association, and for
the various corn, canning and cotton
clubs of the State. He would put
these permanent exhibits on the up
per floors and the public market on
the lower floor. Arcades would throw
each street open to the stalls.

SEE HAWAII
FIRST FIRES AID
Club TO ACTION

"See Hawaii First" interpreted by
Hon. Lorrin A. Thurston at the noon
luncheon of the Honolulu Ad Club to-
day found ready response. The Ad
Club by unanimous vote decided to
arrange for an Ad Club trip to Hilo.
The committee appointed was Mr..
George B. Curtis, Mr.. Charles R. Fra
Zier and Mr.. Strange. They will have
the cooperation of Mr.. Giles who Is
representing the transportation COM
panies in Honolulu.
Mr.. Thnrston was the speaker on
home topics this noon, he being pre-
ceded by Mr.. Heiser, who told of how
the Ad Clubs operate on the Coast.
Mr.. Thurston in his Introductory re-
marks said that he believed in adver-
tising and the ad club movement. He
believed that advertising is fine art
and too few Of the businessmen of this
city and territory appreciate that fact.
Too much of the advertising is dull
and sroutinelike. He presented his
name for membership in the Ad Club.
In Mr.. Thurston's opinion the sitna,
ton called for business men to look
for anchors to windward so to speak.
The main industry is threatened and
it behooyes us to look about for other
lines. None offer better opportunities
than the business that Is part of
and associated with the tourist busi-
ness. The. promotion committee is
working along the right lines and do
ing wonderful work with preposter-
cusly small amount of money. 1t
should be supported more literally as
a matter of good community invest
ment
There is also work along the same
general line of developing what we
have here in Hawaii and making peo-
pie appreciate what they have here at
home, and see Hawaii first. Mr..
Thurston reviewed the plans and work
of the Hilo Board of Trade. A canvass
of the business men of that commu-
nifty resulted in only two of those can
vassed refusing and only three who
gave less for the promotion campaign
than had been allotted them. Though
Hilo is somewhat Of backwoods
town compared with the center of

GIANT CRANE
DISAPPEARS
FROM front
Slips MoorinfIs Under Cover OF
Night and Reaches Pearl
Harbor at Daybreak

The giant floating crane, which has
loomed above the Honolulu water
front for six months past, looking
from near-to like Zeppelin about to
alight, and from a distance being east
ly mistaken for a battleship lying in
the harbor, has vanished. Last night
the craneawas at its accustomed moor
ing at the navy dock, but even the
earliest visitors to the waterfront
this morning failed to find a trace of
its existence, for at LAS this morn
ing the huge steel framework, mount
ed on it's ponderous pontoon, was
towed through the channel and out
ito sea, its destination being Pearl
Harbor. Shortly after z o'clock the
crane was anchored in the mouth Of
the Pearl Harbor drydock, and one
of the most difficult and dangerous
towing jobs in the history of local
shipping had been successfully COM
pleted.
Owing to the great height and
weight of the superstructure, the big
navy crane; which has been in pro-
cess of assembling since last fall, has
been considered one of the crankiest
of craft, and many have been the
guesses as to just what would happen
when the contractors attempted to
tow it to Pearl Harbor for delivery to
the naval authorities there If the
crane were caught in a heavy sea,
said the wise ones, it wouldn't take
much TO make the whole affair turn
turtle. which of course would do un-
told damage to the machinery and
probably wrench some of the heavy
structural work clear away from the
pontoon. -"
