ONLY SEVEN PER CENT OF SUGAR
CROP FOR 1916 REMAINS UNSHIPPED
Few Companies Have Any Considerable Portion of the Years
Produce Remaining on Hand-EeVen Have Ended Season
and Ten More Have Only a Limited Quantity to Handle
Before Mills Stop Grinding

Hawaii's harvest is all but com
plete. More than SO per cent OF the
sugar for 1916 has been cut, ground
and shipped There remains for ship
ment only about $4,000 tons out Of
a production that will equal or exceed
100000 tons Eleven plantations have
cleaned up for the year" and 10 other
plantations have less than 500 tons
to dispose of.
The plantations that have COM
pleted their harvests and shipped all
of the 1916 crop are Honomu, Pepee-
keo, Grove Farm, Kekaha, Kipahulu,
Kelea. Waimea. Apokaa. Kukaiua.
Laupahoehce and Honokaa. Those
that have less than 500 tons to dis
pose of are Onomea, Waikiki. Hawa-
iian Commercial, Koolau, Maui Agri-

Mill Company, Lihue. Pioneer Mill
and Kaiwiki.

Figures secured from the Sugar
Factors Company tell of the progress
made in harvesting and moving the
sugar crop Of the islands and are the
basis CT the estimates made in re-
porting the percentages still to be
disposed of by the planta tons named.
From them, and considering the usual
monthly shipments it is evident that
by the middle of October practically
all of the sugar of the islands will
be on the way to market Of the
SAG tons shipped not all has as yet
reached market and it will be several
weeks after the middle of next month
before the last of the 1916 Nrop will
have reached destination and have
been realized upon. But it is evident
that the price of sugar from now until
the 1917 crop begins to move to mar
ket can have little effect upon the
total to be realized in the islands and
proportionately so on the earnings of
the companies that still have a portion
Of their output to dispose of.
The following table, furnished by
the Sugar Factors Company gives
shipments to September IL, when the
last steamer left, estimated remain
der of the crop and the last esti-
mates of the total crop of each plan

week IN MARKET
Is WITHOUT ANY
LARGE CHANGES

Little change in prices is to be
noted either in listed or unlisted Sc
curities during the week. Such
changes as did occur in listed securi-
ties we're usually in the nature of
advances but only small fractions.
During the early part of the week
there was displayed a considerably
increased activity but this faded away
later and dullness was the rule of
Thursday and Friday.
Such news as developed was gener-
ally good though some professed dis
appointment at no specific announce
ment as to future dividend policy OF
McBryde, after the declaration of its
second 80 cents dividend making 81
for the year, as was paid in 1915.
The directors learned that never be.
fore has McBryde had such expecta.
tons for bumper crop as exist for
next year. -.. lii .-..-.
In unlisted securities there was
more activity. Mineral Products rose
TO $1.05 and sagged back at the end
of the week to 81. Engels Copper
showed strength and scored decided
advance and reached $265. Honolu-
Ia Oil, on the contrary, was weak and
sold down 20 S2.75. Mountain King
was in demand at 20 cents.
There was no session of the ex.
change held today and all in all the
week has been uneventful.
