WAR SCARE HURT
GREAT NORTHERN
Nearly All Eastern Reservations
eft Cancelled After Inter-
g g"g .n national Break

Any other explanation than the
threatened war for the fewer tourists
on the Great Northern than expected
does not hold good, according to off.
GERS of the Hill liner which arrived
yesterday morning ahead of time from
San Francisco via San Pedro and Hilo.
Practically all the reservations held by
eastern people, says Purser John s,
Ford, were cancelled and while some of
them were at once taken mp by western
people who were on the waiting list
there were a hundred fewer passengers
than had been looked forward to. Six
hundred and twenty-five Il was
thought, would come from the Coast,
In place Of which there were 44S.
The total passengers arriving on the
liner yesterday morning were 500, OF
which sixty-One first class, fourteen sec.
ond class and seventy steerage were
from Hilo From the Coast there were
sSs first class, forty-eight second class,
and seventeen steerage. ..a
The liner has 2026 tons of freight for
Honolulu which includes eleven auto.
mobiles, and discharged $50 sacks OF
mail Owing to the fact that instead
of staying in port for the customary
four days the Great Northern will stay
almost seven, it is probable that the
cargo will not be worked to any extent
until tomorrow morning after the Ven.
tura has left.
Accounts of passengers and officers
agree That in point of jollity and good
cheer this voyage of the Great North.

COTTON MAKES
NEW JUMP TO
26.75 FOR OCTOBER

New York, June 23.-A further sharp
advance in prices today established
new high records for the session in the
cotton market in New York. Trading
was only moderately active, and there
was little excitement October con-
tracts rose TO 2675, or 2S5 points above
the low level rates on Wednesdays
break. Advance today reflected in
creasing apprehension of a short crcp
as a result of private low condition fig.
ures and continued drouth complaints
from the southwest, together with con
tinued scarcity of contracts.
No new fresh development was re.
ported in Liverpool. but Manchester ca
bles received here said the closing Of
futures abroad had completely disorgan-
lied the goods trade I'm Lancashire, az
numerous spinners and manufacturers
were refusing to name quotations until
affairs We're more settled.
Paris advices, reporting steps had
been taken to close the cotton exchange
at Havre, attracted comparatively lit
tie attention. as the market there has
been based upon maximum prices fixed
twice daily.
