A. E. Livingstone Says Feeling

That most Australian people are

the opinion given out by A. E. Living

writer, who last week arrived in Ho-
nolulu from a trip to the common
wealth, and is stopping at the Alex

is a eat-grandson of the famous Afri.

ing native of California.
Il was deeply and unpleasantly i'm
pressed on my trip to Australia this
time, said Mr.. Livingstone, with the
coolness and at times almost contempt
with which American travellers are
being treated. The Lusitania incident,
instead of serving to ,,raw us closer
to. the colonists, has in reality given
them the impression that the United
States is the enemy of England be-
cause she did not at once take up
arms against Germany The people
have also strong feeling against US

DEMOCRATS SURE
Of HAVING VOICE
At CHARTER MEET
Republican Candidates With.
draw in Certain Precincts
to Allow Minority Rep
resentation T.: T..

The Democratic party now is assur-
ed of a minority representation at the
charter convention This was learned
today when it developed that the char
ter convention election, to be held
next Tuesday, instead OF being non
partisan will be merely bipartisan in
division of seats. ..- =. .~... =. !.
In several of the precincts certain
Republican candidates have Withdrawn
or will withdraw. thereby reducing the
number of candidates to the number
to be elected, and by doing away with
a contest assuring certain of the Dem,
ocratic candidates of seats in the con.
yention next September:
According to reports circulating in
the various political camps of the city,
the several meetings held in the
various precincts under the auspices
of the Republican party were not the
enly sessions held for the purpose of
selecting candidates for the special
charter election.
The information is to the effect
by the leading Democrats in the var
ious precincts, some under the aus.
pices of the precinct chairman of the
Democratic party. and that ticket
was nominated to oppose the candi.
dates nominated at the meetings held
by the Republicans
In any event the non-partisan slate is
being opposed in several precincts. In,
Precinct IA of the fifth district four
Republicans were nominated at the
Republican partys meeting. This
slate is opposed by four Dem
ocrats. who are said to have been
dominated at one of these semi-secret
sessions of the Democrats. J. A.,
Baker, Fred A Luning, David Kali,
Sr., and w. w. Buckle are the Bour-
bons. and j. N. Keola, j. G. Pratt,
Chang Chau and A. K. Vierra are the
non partisan" Republicans.
Vierra announced on the closing day
for filing nomination papers that he
had withdrawn, but the county clerk
declares he has not been notified OF
the alleged withdrawal. Vierra is EN-.
ployed in the city roads department,
and Supervisor Hollinger says that if
he is elected he can not receive pay
from the city while serving as a dele
gate at the convention. Four candi-
dates are to be elected in this pre-
cinct s--.:r.. ( =. =. r.. Is. .=-. -. ..

Equal of Population of Small
City Brought to Honolulu
Since June 80, 1914

The population of a small city was
landed at Honolulu from visiting
steamers during the fiscal year clos
ing June 80, 1915; during which H.
19l passengers from the east and west
coasts of the United States alone
stepped ashore at Honolulu.
A conservative estimate secured
from totals now in possession of the
federal authorities will place the num-
ber of travellers who passed through
the port to destinations around the
Pacific at between 10000 and $4,000
The islands received 6179 passen-
gers from foreign ports who for the
most part were represented by large
of Fflipinos, Japanese, Chi
nese and many other races.
Other interesting data indicating
the extent of increase in business done
at the port is shown in the statement
that cargo received from foreign ports
amounted to S0,063 tons. Cargo
brought here from domestic ports to-
tailed 369,341 tons.
Lumber leads in the list of commo

shipped 1,113,500 barrels of various
grades of oil to the islands.
The rapid increase in tonnage call.
ing at the port to take fuel brought a
corresponding increase in the amount
of coal received at the port Figures
today show that 122,220 tons
of coil was landed in the territory.

"Tutuila is very effectually cut off

SUGAR &ARKET IS
SENT SKYWARD BY
BRITISH BUYING
Government of Great Britain
Takes Sc, 900 Tons at One
Time, Says N. 7. Gable
CUBANS HELD AT 5:02;
JUMPS 6 POINTS IN DAY
Prevailing High Prices Reflect
ed In June Record of Extra
Dividends in Hawaii

The British government caused a
furry in the sugar market at New
York yesterday by purchasing outright
$4,000 tons OF refined sugar, according
TO cabIed reports In night letter to
Alexander & Baldwin Of Honolulu.
The quotation in New York yester-
day morning was 4.96, but by the
close Cubans were held at 5.02 (Ha-
waiian sugar is on the Cuban rating),
which meant a raise of $1.20 per ton,
or from 1920 to $l00.40 per short
ton. Porto Ricans talways held low
er), had advanced by closing yester.
day to 1876. The Cubans quotation Of
yesterday is the highest of the year,
sol on June ] having been the pre-
yious high record.
The British purchase OF $4,000 tons
of refined Is quoted in the cable re-
ceived by Alexander & Baldwin as
having been at 4.65, which plus the
present duty Of 1.26, would indicate
price to buyer Of 5.91.
The effect OF the prevailing high
prices of sugar is clearly evident in
Hawaii, both in large extra dividends
on local sugar stocks and in the gen.
eral plentitude of money for invest
ment purposes.
One year ago, for instance, the pub
lished sworn statements of Bishop &
Company, bankers, showed deposits of
$5,081, ,433.39, and a total of assets of
$6,393, ,961. .25. Statements published
today show the surprising increase to
$7,555,975 of the deposits, and total
assets OF 1914. .23S.30.
On June 80, 1914, the Bank of Hawaii,
Limited, had deposits OF $4.795, ,29S16.
and total assets Of 6,201, ,754.20 Yes
terday the deposits of that institution
amount to $7,15S,4 1855, and the total
assets had climbed to $s,725,41512.
Other comparative statements are
not yet at hand, but are expected to
show q proportionate increase.
The sugar companies are rapidly
retiring their bonds, the MeBryde
company alone having taken up $780,
900 worth OF their issue last month,
and Waialua having announced the
prospective retirement of their entire
issue Of $65S,500 by the end Of this
year.
Unexpected dividend announce
ments were made to day, when notice
was given out that Alexander &
Baldwin had increased their regular
monthly dividend from rs cents to
$100 per share.
McBryde. which paid the first diyi-
dend In the history of the company on
June 25, today announces the declara-
tion of.a second dividend, also Of so
cents q share, payable December 10.
Dividends Of sugar companies listed
on the Honolulu Stock Exchange sheet,
for the month Of June alone total ST.
S74.192 and were declared by the fol-
lowing companies in the amounts
