Aftor tho Slock Exchango meet
ing, however, E. 0. Maufnrlano
was ftBkcd regarding a largo trans
action in Pioneer Mill Co. stock
whioh ho waB reported to have
effected. Mr. Macfarlano admit
ted that bo had made a heavy pur
chase of Pioneer for California
and Eastern parties. Although it
was a little prematuro to announce,
ho gave tho nnmbor of shares
chancing hands as three hundred.
Asked why it had not beon re
ported on the board, Mr. Maofar
lano said it wis because all of the
purchases had not thon been con
summated, While tho terms aro held pri
vate, it is an open soorot on tho
street that the prion paid is $115,
and understood that the order was
for a block of 5 JO shares. Mr.
Macfarlano made no denial of tho
fact that Bert Hecht of Sau Fran

lhe community ought to be
pleased at Reoing such a stock
going abroad, as it is calculated to
attract further attontion to Hawai
ian investments. Tho amount of
capital sot froa by tho transaction
is also at this juncture a matter of
gratification.
Mr. Hecht went into tho figures
with the result of finding a pros
poet of a 10,( 00 ton crop iu 1902.
Five thousand acres of tho best
cane land is to be taken in. It is
also proposed to uso tho water in
the mountains for electrio power,
which will do away with all the
expense of pumping. Eastern
parties aro now looking into
Pioneer.
It ia understood that Mr. Hecht
has also mndo a larg purchase of
Oahu, said to ho in tho neighbor
hood of 350 eh - res at about $270.

Iu answer to tho reporter's

dared that there was no official

He had simply corao to join his

Eagan hinted that further nowtt
on the samo subject by next steam

lieyopd this amicable sparring
for points, an interview lasting for
about an hour was entirely upou
tho subject of coffee. General
Eagan is intousely onthusiastio on
coffee as a Icadinc product of these
inlands. .While theanoation of an
noxation waapenuingiutueotatod,
sugar was a atumbling block but
coffoo never. On tho contrary,
coffeo was a strong card aud one
of tuo winning onoa. As General
Eican put it sententiously thU

slavery in coffeo,"
It is confidently prodioted by

to tho Hawaiian Islands. Today,

Eagan was n prominent advocate

a member of the Cabinet it was
learned tonight that this ndmis
ainn was made to President
Scbnrman ut the conference held
by him with, Colouel Arguellzs
and Lieut. Bernnl several days
ngo. It was in reply to n direct
question put to them by Mr.
Schurman, and the character of
the answer whs no doubt as grati
fying to the Commission as it is
to President McKinley. As tho
result of a dispatch sent by
Mr. Schurman today, it i-t the
confidout expectation of tho Presi
dent that the end of the rebellion
is close at hand. This rosult will
not be obtained, hnwevor, without
concessions whioh hnvo been re
commended by tho Commiasion,
and which, by tho direction of tho
President, will bo granted.
Theso concessions contemplato
giving to tho Filipinos n form of
