BONDS TO Be SOLD
. FOR WHARF AT HAMA

In order to proceed at an early date
with the construction of a new wharf
at Hama, Maui, territorial bonds, au-
thorized by the last legislature will he
sold to T. H. Davies & Company, to
the amount Of $4,000. ~
HarbOr Commissioner Mccarthy,
who is also the territorial treasurer,
said yesterday that he had laid before
the Governor the offer of 7. H. Davies
4 Company, to purchase such bonds.
The firm suggested that if the money
90 derived was used TO build the new
wharf at Hama, they would purchase
them to that amount. * .ge.
The legislature authorized the work
to be done, contingent upon money be-
ing available from bond sales, Owing
to the possibility of delays, and also To
the necessity Of having better wharf
at an early date for the proper han
ding Of sugar shipments and incoming
supplies at that port the Davies re-.
quest was approved. ~. ~

Grocers Make Admissions ... e..
I" Grocers admit that they are not
paying much above the food commits
sion's maximum prices for what they
are selling to the needy ones at four
teen cents upwards per pound as long
as the public continues in its present
frame of mind. The daily adjurations
in the press from food headquarters, re-
finers, and others requesting the con
sumers not to get excited and to cut
down consumption TO minimum, have
had the opposite from the hoped for re.
suit, for those who have the money to
lay in fifty to one hundred pounds are
doing so without let or hindranee at
very satisfactory figures to the corner
grocer who sees no terror in law
which is expressly worded not to affect
any profiteering he may indulge in.
Those who eonseientiously ,try TO com.
ply with the wishes of the authorities
find they are in a class by themselves
where patriotism and public spirit sans
sugar win be their reward.

the tropical storm they had about two

PROMINENT LAWYER
MAY HEAD NEW BANK
City's Eleventh Financial In
stitution to Be Located
on North Side.

A prominent lawyer and capitalist
ident for the city's eleventh banking
institution now in process of organiza-
tion and soon to open for business with
headquarters at the corner Of Main
established primarily to serve the
business men and other citizens of the
northern portion of the city, and will
he financed largely by stockholders
located in close proximity to the in
stitution.
The new bank probably will operate
under a state charter, and will have
a capitalization of 100000 with a
surplus fund of $4,000, persons identi-
fled with the project announced yes
terday. Stockholders are to be limited
to the purchase of shares aggregat-
ing not more than n maximum Of
$4,000. one of the most up-to date
banking houses in the city is to be ar
ranged in the quarters now occupied
by q trunk store. The location of
the bank is considered ideal for serv-
ing the patrons of the opulent COM
mercial neighborhood.
Accompanying the announcement
as to the probable president, was the
tatement last night by persons actively
Identified with the organization that
the cashier for the institution will be
selected from the personnel of a local
national bank The official whose
name is withheld, is said to he one of
the most capable and favorably known
factors in local banking circles.
Inauguration of an eleventh bank
for Tulsa will provide what probably
will be the second state bank in the
city. The Planters National Bank sew
cral months ago retired "A state char
ter to become rated as national
bank and the West Tulsa State Bank,
organized about March /, at present
is the only state bank in Greater Tulsa
Business men interested in the pro-
motion of the new bank are confident
of the instant success of the venture.
1t is contended that the north Main
street district long has enjoyed bust
ness conditions that warranted a bank
in the vicinity. The demand. coupled
with the increased development of the
north side in common with the gem
eral strides of the city at large so
crystalized as to bring about the or
ganization now being pushed to full
fillment under the direction of prom
inent bank organizer.
1t is proposed to open the bank some
time this fall. meeting of those in
terested in the project is to be held
within few days, and il is believed
all stock will at that time be sub
scribed, and the selection of officers
and other final organization details
consummated.

A Wyoming Company Operates Reg
uiar Trains Drawn by Catcrpillars.

CASPER, Wyo.-It has been ouy a
few days since the Reed Exploration
company inaugurated caterpillar
train service between Casper and the
salt Creek fields. f'he first effort Of
the company was with one tractor,
which drew behind IL over the sand
filled roads train of wagons carry
ing fifty tons Of freight. The first
venture proved To be so successful that
another caterpillar tractor was added
TO the train and is now making reg
ular trips between the city and the
Salt Creek field. taking the steep
grades with ease and going over
sandy stretches whore team wrr
even a light load would stall Each
tractor IS capable OF hauling more
than fifty tons along the roads which
they travel
Three trains n week are run be
tween Salt Creek and Casper.
