Of Commercial Interest
By L. D.
' Honolulu, Sept. 18.
In the past wwk there have been
numerous sales of stocks of various
kinds, but prices have, as a general
thing, leen 1k;1ow the market of the
preceding ten days. This has lieen
partially due to, the political cam
paign, which is just now distracting
attention; and partially to the con
dition of the sugar market, which
has manifested unexpected weakness
in all of the principal centers of the
world. -Moreover, the approach of
the time when beet sugar wilL in
fluence quotations has introduced
another element of uncertainty into
the situation, an uncertainty which
is auickly felt by an ordinarily sen
sitive public.
Of Maih stocks, Hawaiian Com
mercial has easily led in the trading,
sales of 1,025 shares haying U-en
made at a total of 8 11. 100.50. Fol
lowing the payment of regular and
special dividends on the 5th, n strong
effort was made by the bears to dra"W
this stock to 'anything lelow $ K),
but the attempt was foiled by the
friends of the stock. o sale was
recorded, on or off the hoard, below
$ 10, although" bidding dropped to
$39,875 on severalfccasions. There
were sales of 140 shares yesterday at
the former figure, and it is reliably
reported that large buying orders
are out today fur the stock at the
same.' Hawaiian Commercial, un
der present circumstances, will ad
vance again toward the last of the
month, .probably,' reaching $41.50
or better. Between now and then
there is a possibility of sales being
made around $39,875.
Next to Hawaiian ' Commercial
came Pioneer in the matter of value
of stock 'transferred, 110 shares
changing hands at a total cf 26,
4G2.50. This stock declined after
the payment of its big dividend un
til $230 was reached on Saturday,
' at which three sales of 25,20 and 10
shares were made. Pioneer is' now
I229vbid and $231 asked. This
stock may also go a little lower, but,

on our Kauai trip at the other end,
the restaurant waiters at our calling
