Just before the meeting Of the mem
bers, w. F. Crockett was elected to

The president called upon Super.
visor Henning to report upon what
had been done in the matter of the
Haleakala rest house. He said thar
in the absence of Senator Baldwin at
the coast nothing has been settled,
but the work would be pushed as fast
as possible now that Mr.. Baldwin
had returned. The most interesting
part of the meeting was when the
matter came up of the entertainment
of the civic bodies at the Maui meet
ing nexteyear. Messrs. Wadswortl,
Won Tempsky. Pogue, Judge Kings
bury, Senator Penhallow and others
discussed the matter quite at length.
The question of having 1t come at the
tipe Of the Fourth OF July celebration
or the harvest home festivities att
Puunene or at some other time Of
the year was carefully considered.
The whole question of time, program,
ways and means, etc. finally was left
to a committee of seven men, one Of
whom should be the president of the
Ichamber the committee to be per-
manent until after the convention.
The plaps will be worked up during
the next few weeks and then submit
ted at the January meet, or at spe-
cial meeting If necessary The presI.
dent is to name this committee at
some later date.
James ID. Dougherty at the invita-
tion of the chamber, was asked to
speak. He detailed al length the |
elaborate plans ~for the Mid-Paeific
Carnival in Honolulu. Every inem-
Der of the chamber was much inter
ested in what he, as chairman of the
Carnival week committee had to say.
He called upon Maui to take part in
the princess parade and also send as
many decorated floats and aut0mo-
biles down as possible.
James L. Mclean of the Inter

Money Bill May Kill
Wall Street Prestige
Currency Measure Removes New YOrk's Last
Excuse for Lead in Many Stocks
BY BOERSIANER.

CHICAGO, Oct. 4-If the currency
bill passes the Senate as it left the
house, New York will be bereft of a
final excuse for monopolizing the
trading in certain securities.
The defense of the easy and album
dant loans" Of quick and ready
banking accommodations" no longer
will be valid. Certain stocks may be
handled on the exchanges of the COM
munities where the shares are heav-
lily held
Boston should have exclusively
American Telegraph and Telephone
and the business in Amalgamated
Anaconda and Utah Copper Phila-
delphia should lead Wall Street in
handling Pennsylvania and Reading.
Chicago should have a monopoly of
Peoples Gas and chronicle more
trading in st. Paul, Illinois Central
end Baltimore and Ohio than the
Eastern bourse
These are instanced at random
There are many properties really
alien to Wall Street.
Early Day Practice.
Before Wall Street had enjoyed the
vast vogue which began in 1901 it
was natural usage for securities to be
listed and traded in on the exchanges
where such values were prepondera-
bly, held. Thus Boston did much more
in Atchison, in Burlington, in New
Haven and in all the coppers than
New York. Philadelphia was privi-
legged in Reading, Pennsylvania, in
Lehigh Valley and issues owned by
Pennsylvanians. Chicago was the
chief market for several stock issues
and of Peoples Gas.
The transfer of control of the gas
company to the Flower interests, later
the exodus eastward of a group Of
Chicago promoters and milliOnaires,
gave New York what once had been
Chicago's
In the last few years, however
there have been re-transfers to the
Chicago. Boston and Philadelphia
markets. The most notable, numeri-
cally and collectively, are Pennsyl-
vania and Reading to Pennsylvania
investors and capitalists, and Peoples
Gas. st. Paul and Sears -Roebuck to
Chicagoans.
If the bourses of Chicago, Boston
and Philadelphia can rid themselves
of the infection of localism that has
afflicted them in the last decade they
can come into their own: can flourish
as they did before Wall Street be-

WHOLE WORLD
CRABS COTTON
ON EASY SPOT
Bears Depress Prices in New Or
leans and Flood Of Buying Or
ders Swamps Market.

NEW ORLEANS, LA, Oct. "A
week of excitement in the cotton
market wound up to-day with a sharp
advance, which put many speculative
shorts out Of commission. For a half
day session, the trading around the
local ring was more active than II
has been in months, buying orders
coming from all parts of the world.
Liverpool interests were credited with
absorbing $4,000 bales of January
contracts as the market advanced.
Encouraged by Fridays decline
which was brought about more y
liquidation on the part Of long inter-
ests than by anything else, bears at
tempted to depress the market further
during the early trading to-day, de-
spite reports of con- inued rains In
Texas and Oklahoma and a forecast
Of unsettled weather over Sunday.
When January contracts went below
1870. long interests began to replace
on a large scale, and the market
quickly rallied.
Shorts Run to Cover.
Buying orders then poured into the
ring from Texas. Memphis and other
points, short being forced to cover
freely when the market reached 1890
for January. Before the demand from
this source was supplied. Janua. V
contracts sold at 1887, or just 10
points up from the mornings low
level. There was some profit taking
at the extreme advance, prices re-
ceding several points before the
close, which, however, was steady.
Spots were officially reported quiet
and UNCHANGED, with sales of 225
bales of spots and 40 bales to ar
rive, on the basis OF IA cents for mid
ding. The demand here has been ~
an excellent character all the week,
particularly for the better grades,
which are scarce on account Of the
damage to the crop in the eastern aud
and central belt by continued heavy
rains.
As the season progresses 1t is evil
dent that bearish hopes in the mar
ket depend more and more upon the
crop outlook in the AtlantlCs. The
large ginnings repOrted by Alabama,
Georgia and the Carolinas have served
to encourage the belief that the short
age in the western belt will be offset
TO a considerable extent by a bounti-
full yield in the eastern half of the
belt.
Georgia Crop Large.
Reports being received by the trade
here. however, do not indicate any
great increase In the crop over last
year. except in Georgia. The eager
ness with which farmers in the east
ern belt are selling at the present level
Is used as a bearish argument. though,
and It is evident that Texans do not
relish the idea Of their rivals in the
Atlantics grabbi-p the high prices
now being paid while the movement
in the Lone Star State is restricted
on account of excessive rains and
floods.
Spinning interests, which are after
good grades. find the supnly OF that
kind of cotton more abundant In the
Atlantics and are willing to buy all
they can around the present levels.
Later on the low grades in Texas are
ant to prove something of a drug OF
the market, and may be used to de-
press contract values.

West Increases Holdings.
Within three years Western inter

in Chicago. To the Field estate hold
ings of Baltimore and Ohio there
have been many LaSalle street ac-

The strongest argument New York

Street, the colossal business done in
that thoroughfare from 1901 to 1910
awed the other exchanges. sterilized
their initiative and made the sending
of orders East habitual.
State Laws Hamper Street.
In addition to the basic disadvan-
tage to New York brought by the
changed ownership Of important Sc
curity issues, that district has been
put at a disadvantage in the last two
years by State legislation. The effort
to curb speculation of a reckless and
ignorant character is to be CONNIE nd
ed, to be sure. But the tax on all
transactions, whether investment Of
the contrary, is an indiscriminate i'm
position in the lower meaning Of the
term.
And it is a burden from which other
exchanges are free. Designed origi-
naIly to feed financially hungry As
semblymen who were eagerly waiting
to desist, the stock transaction tax
bill was passed for want Of a con
trary persuasive. The New York
Stock Exchange at that time did not
protest because OF probity, but be
cause Of its contemptuous arrogance
toward everything and everybody moi
of Wall Street. An lmnost on in
weston and Spectator alike was al
lowed to go on the statutes by de-
fault.
In the meanwhile the New YORK
exchange has been prodded into some
sort of humility.

News and Notes y
Of the Grain Crops
Bv JOSEPH F. PRITCHARD.

CHICAGO. Oct. 4.-Longs in corn
have sold on large scale during the
week. This selling, however has been
in the ouietest manner and the trade
has been induced to absorb the
grain without any great price break.
Values. however. have declined and
the situation at the moment is any
thing but encouraging to holders in
case they make up their minds to Sc
cure profits. All of the larger hold
ers are now on velvet, but any move
ment to get out of their big lines
would precipitate big break.
It is believed that Arthur Cutten is
long a good sized line of corn. as is
someone doing business through the
Bartlett Frazier house. Lamson Bros.
& Co. is said to be heavy holder
of deferred months. Some OF the
country spectators still are long. The
quiet exit of the September future
showed heavy private settlements
were made in that month.
The largest holder of wheat in the
Chicago market is adding to his line
on every soft spot. The head OF this
big concern is pretty well Informed
on conditions in the spring wheat
country and he is talking of much
smaller receipts in the near future,
which would mean higher prices.
There are others in the trade who ad-
vance the opinion with the freezing
of the ground in the Northwest that
the thrashing from the stack will be
resumed and the reduction of receipts
at both Minneapolis and Duluth will
be on a larger scale.
