New Workers Impressed
By Island Hospitality

Those of the Brooklyn Eagle Park
Dedication party who stopped off to
visit Haleakala were delighted with
their visit as appears from the follow
ing extract from the Honolulu Adver-
tiser:
THE four members of the Eagle
party who stopped off at Lahaina and
assembled Haleakala were enthusiastic
in their praise of the island of Maui
as a cradle of scenery of eXtraordin-
airy loneliness. The sunrise and sun
set were the most wonderful they had
yer seen, while the motor drive be
tween Lahaina and Waikiki was de
clared by Kaltenborn to be the finest
of its kind in the world, surprising
ven the world famous Cornish road
on the Italian Riviera.
"All in ALL" he declared, the most
charming thing about Hawaii is the
graciousness and unselfishness of its
people. We who come from New
York city, a wonderful but selfish
metropolis, feel the contrast more
poignantly than most. 1t is a thing
that enters the heart and stays there.
Hawaii is unforgetable, and we eX-
tend to it's people an aloha that is as
heartfelt as Hawaii's own aloha has
been to us"

New York Capitalist
Not Recognized Here

Though some in Maui had heard of
the marriage of Miss Betty Wrobles-
ka who was in Tahului last winter
and spring to II. u. Bennett few who
knew the groom were aware that he
was a New York capitalist" while
he was employed by the Standard Oil
Company here. Such is the informa-
ton, however, impaired by the San
Francisco Chronicle in the following
paragraph:
H. D. Bennett, New York capitalist,
and Mrs. Bennett came to the Plaza
yesterday on a honeymoon trip from
Honolulu. Mrs. Bennett, formerly
Miss B~urnadette Wrobleski of San
Francisco, left for the Hawaiian Is
lands about six months ago, and while
touring the islands met Bennett, who
had gone to Honolulu on a business
trip. The couple will leave tomorrow
for their home in New York.

MAUI TWENTY YEARS AGO
From Maui News of July 20, 19o1.)

The Honolulu polo team won an
easy victory from their Maui
counsins on the Makawao Polo Field
yesterday afternoon, the score being
IL to 0. Honolulu had the best ponies
n showed the greater skill and the
Maui boys found themselves at a dis
advantage at every point except en-
durance and pluck.
Waikiki witnessed its first game of
ball on the new grounds last Sunday
between Waikiki and Ulupalakua.
The field was somewhat rough as it
has not yet been rolled but the boys
managed to put up a fair game. Al
though improving in their game they
scored a large number of runs, Wal
luku winning % to II. The players
lined up as follows:
Wailuku-Cornwell, Boote, J. Gar
cha, Morris, Cummings, Jackson, A
Garcia, Packard, Schroeder.
Ulupalakua-Crook, Kinau, Maui
wac, Kaahanui, Oleko, Imihia, Hen
derson, Aukai, Black.
Rapid progress is being made in the
construction of the Chinese church

ment.
What has become of the Kahului
Yacht Club? Nothing is more eX-
hilerating than boat racing either
with oars or sails and now that
athletic sports are being instituted on

Tradition tells us that before the
haole found their way to the Islands
a vast forest of large trees extended
u~ninteruptedly from Waikiki to Maa-
laea Bay. This is quite possible and
the destruction of the forest should
be remedied as far as possible. A
forestry bureau with money at its
back should take the initiative and
ever the children at school should
grow up thoroughly imbued with the
idea of repairing the mischief doom by
their forebears.

LABOR NEWS FROM
 ENGLAND LOWERS ADVANCE IN COTTON
General List Closes Barely Steady at a Net Advance of 2 to 8 Points for
 the Day
By Associated Press

New York, May 11.-There was a little buying on the announcement that Ger many had accepted the allied reparations terms in the cotton market this morning. It was held in check, however, by the less favorable labor news from England and the appearance of increased southern selling orders around the ring, as prices approached the 14-cent level for October, with the result that moderate early gains were followed by partial reactions. July contracts, for instance, sold up to 1S.4Oc. or 16 points net higher and into new high ground for the movement but later reacted to 132Ic, closing at 13.2Sc. The general list closed barely steady at net advance of to 8 points.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of ' to II points and sold about 15 to 19 points net higher right after the call, in spite of disappointing cables. A belief that Germanys agreement to the demanded separations would open the way for an increased export movement found some expression in local and Wall street buying but demand failed to broaden and the action of the stock mar ket was regarded as indicating that the better European news had been pretty well discounted. A bullish weekly report from the weather bureau, indicating that conditions had been unfavorable in al- most all sections of the belt, and that re- planted cotton was coming up to poor stand because of retarded germination, checked the reaction during the middle of the day. Offerings increased on moder- ate upturns, however, and closing prices were within 8 point or two of the lowest on most positions. There were rumors late in the day that loans aggregating several million dollars had been arranged for prominent southern cotton exporters through the assistance of the war finance corporation nnder plans matured at re- cent conferences. Liverpool advices said that the effects of the German news and unfavorable crop reports had been offset by the seriousness of the labor situation in England and that speculation was dormant. Exports today, 2973, making 4215,91S so far this season. Port receipts. ,193 United States port stock, 1,55S, 232.

New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, May 11.-While the news today was favorable enough to keep the cotton market at small advances during the greater part of the session, the gains were wiped out in the last few minutes of the day, and last prices were 1 point higher to 6 points lower than the last prices of yesterday Last prices were practically the lowest of the day, July closed at 12.S5c after trading up to 13.02c at the highest levels.
 The effect of the German acceptance of the allied ultmatum was lessened by the poor showing of Liverpool, which did not even make good the small gains of the late trading in the American mar kets yesterday Professional opinion was that Liverpool was held down by the se- riousness of British labor troubles and the poor showing of April exports. Brit ish board of trade figures cabled to this market placed British exports of cloths during April at 1S6 100000 yards, against 423 So0, 900 during April of last year and $500, 900 pounds of yarns against Il, ,OO0
 After reaching advances of IA to IS points in the early trading, the market made no further display of strength, and obviously was held down by hedge offer irgs
 The weekly crop reports from the gov- ernment were fully as bad as predicted by traders on the long side of the mar ket, but did no more than give the mar ket a steady undertone. Cold weather over the larger part of the belt was spoken of as interfering with crop pro- gress.

ANXIETY OF CROP
 DAMAGE BROUGHT
 DECIDED ADVANCE
By Associated Press

Chicago, May 11.-Increased anxiety over crop damage reports had a large share in bringing about a decided ad- vance today in the price of wheat The market closed strong. 31a to 5% cents net higher, with May s1.44 to $1441s and July $t161a to $1.16a4 Corn gained 5s to 7s cents, oats 1M to IF and provisions 2 to 62 cents.
 Oklahoma. Kansas, Nebraska, Texas, Missouri and Indiana all sent unfavor- able news regarding winter wheat and there was active general buying through out the day except during a brief inter- val after word was received that rains had fallen in western Kansas. The con- sequent upward swing of the market was much facilitated by statements of Secre- tary Wallace of the United States de-. partment of agriculture favoring higher scale of prices than before the war and indicating belief that business conditions would be improved with the settlement of the German reparations matter. Expectancy that the emergency tariff bill would be passed by the Senate forth with was also a strengthening factor. In addition, country offerings were small and gossip was current that the move- ment from first hand would decrease in the near future. .-.. s,,
 Corn and oats were helped upward by the strength of wheat. Another bullisli influence was the knowledge that the bulk of the 1,2S0,000 bushels of corn In public elevators here has been sold for shipment. M
 German acceptance of the allies terms appeared to enliven demand for provl- sons and especially so for lard.

New York May u.-(Special.)-A fav- orable influence was felt in our market this morning. News that Germany would come to terms had a salutary effect both here and abroad. The market during the first hour advanced rapidly to 13.40c for July, but hedge selling and profit talk ing eased 1t off trfle and the market settled down and remained steady to 1t points over the opening prices.
 The weekly weather was received as unfavorable, local traders anticipated a much better report. Rain still hampers farming activities and we hear of many cases of cotton being planted for the third time Conditions seem to be shap- ing up steady in anticipation of better business. We anticipate gradual im- prov ovement.-Hubbard Bros. & Co.

WEATHER UNAVOIDABLE
 FOR COTTON IN SOUTH
Bx Associated Press

Washington, May 11.-Decidedly unfav- orable weather prevailed during the last week for cotton throughout the southern states, the national weather and crop bulletin announced today.
 "It was unseasonably cool" the bulle- tin said,a "especially during thu first half of the week, and at its close heavy rains occurred in most localities from the Mis- sissippi valley westward It has been necessary to replant much cotton and the cool weather has prevented satisfactory sermination of the replanted seed, con- sequently the stands are mostly poor.
 Much cotton has been killed in Geor- eia, while the crop is reported as mak- ing poor progress in the Carolinas; warm rains are needed in the southeastern por- tion of the belt. Planting is now about two weeks late in the northwestern DOT ton as a result of the continued unfav- orable weather for this work
