Tli I a sums up the business situation
for the week In llonoluln, nml the
prospect Is very bright nn every band.
: The two big ilcaU of this week hao
been tbu telephone ntnnlKnniutlon nml
the settlement of Uokaln plantation

ed In the Bulletin.

talked mcr the sltttatlon. Thu nuto
mntlc si stem men will iro oer thu
lines of the old Mutual nml decide on
what Is to be done. The work will
probably go forward with all speed.
Walker Will Retire.
The rale of Ookuhl to Tlieo. II.
I)aleH & Co. Is followed by the state
incut that Mr. Walker will probably
not icinnln ns nninaKer. In fact Mr.
Walker has been long contemplating
letting up a Utile on the strenuoua
plantation life and therefore be will
probably remain only long enough to
settle up the old plantation and see
the new cue Marted In good shape.
Mr. Walker has n ranch in California
where his family spend thu most of
their time.
The recent quotations In sugar are
ery faiorablo notwithstanding the
slight drop In Jlie price of centrif
ugals. Two quotations on beets have
come In nml now the London price Is

Hie next pilco In centrifugals will bo

Price of Sugar.
Private Information from New York
states that during tho iccent rise In
centrlfug'ils when tho prlco reached
I 05 the sentiment among some of the
"wisest" men In Wnll street was that
tho prlco would go much btcher. On
this basin tho Arbucklcs bought sug
ars amounting to. something like thir
ty thousand tons. Then tho nrlco
slumped back ngaln. All of which
miows mat tno inggest men go wrong

Eil Pollltz says that no general up
ward movement need bo expected until
the tariff discussion Is nulla out of thn
way. This does not mean that Pol
lltz Is predicting lower prices. Ho
can't see any low prlco prospects for
Honolulu at any point In the horizon

thing Is moving along swimmingly on
tho Hawaii Irrigation Company business.

CHECKERS TONIGHT;
VAUDEVILLE NEXT WEEK
This afternoon and this ovcnlng will
bo tbu last chance to see "Checkers"
nt tho Opera House, As nlrcady stat
ed, this play is really very good and
Is exactly suited to the Pollard act
ors. It Is scldof! that n play lias been
produced with so many sparkling lines
In It nnd so much of dry, quiet, Amer
ican humor.
In tho natno part Alfred doubling
has found his metier. He looks well
In bis clothes, no matter what they
may be, and ho Is tho same quiet, gen
tlemanly fellow In the overnlts of a
grocery clerk ns bo is in swell dress
clothes I utile first net.
Tho plot of tho play- is slmplo
enough, but tho wny In which It Is
worked out Is more than clover, It la
n masterpiece. Checkers has to make
five thousand dollars to win his girl
and ho docs It by betting tho fifty dol
lar gold piece which she has given
htm as a souvpnlr, on a rank outsider
nt 50 to 1.
In tho second net most of tho mus-
leal numbers ,nro Introduced. These

SUPPOSED SUICIDE OF
RETIRED BUSINESS MAN
Tho body of John Clianslor, a guest
nt tho Moana hotel, was found floating
in the water near tho bathing pontoon
this morning about C o'clock. Threo
natlvo boys who had been out fishing
discovered tho corpse between tho pior
nnd thu float.
It appears that Mr. Clianslor, who
was accompanied by his son and n
trained nurso, arrived nt tbu Moana
hotel nbotit,, threo wcokB ngo. Thu
party brought their nutomobllo and
chauffeur with them, and Intended
making an "extended stay In tho Is
lands. Tho Junior Mr. ChniiBlor bad
Just returned from a trip to the Vol
cano, nnd was grieved to notice bow
Ill bis father appeared. Mr. Clianslor
8r., has boon an Invalid for tho past
two years and Is roportcd to havo ex
pressed n wUli that bo wcro dead.
Tho nurso states that at 4 o'clock
this morning gho visited Mr. Chans
ior's room, nnd that apparently ho wns
then asleep. Aftor looking nt her
patient sho retired to her own room,
mid know nothing else till sho wns
aroused by tho hotel people, who In
formed her of tho finding of tho body.
Tho corpse, which wns fully dressed
with the exception of u day-Bhtrt, had
only been In tho wnter for a short
time, and had not gouo to tho bottom.
Mr. Clianslor wns a retired oil mag
hntu and vvnB reported as very weal
thy Ho halls from Missouri and was
about (18 years of age. , '
An Inquest will bo held this after
noon nt the Ppllco station, nnd Dep
uty Sheriff nose s now busy on the
case.
"BEACONUKHTS"
If there was ever a doubt as to tho
merits of the Ellcford performance,
"Deacon Lights," you should havo
been nt the Orpheum Inst night and
seen tho crowded houso, tho delighted
nudlenco nnd heard or nil sides tho
pralso bestowed upon this prpttj; play.
It Is ono of the best things thai; (ho
Ellefords hnvo over dono In Honolulu,
and this clover company haB been seen
In many good things. The plcco wag
written by Joseph Orlsmcr and was
tho starring vehicle for himself nnd
Phoebe Da vies for several seasons In
Now York. Manager Elleford Is pro-
Scene from "Beacon Lights."
Bcntlng It with every regard to detail
as characterized tho original produc
tion, nnd It offers specially fine oppor
tunity for every member of this or
ganization.
Miss Due ns tho young tnotlior, gives
n pleasing picture nnd llttlo Sopblo Os-
born In the rolo of hor child, "llttlo
Charley," way warmly npplauded. Fow
In the nudlenco realized that It was n
llttlo girl In tho part, and many wero
tho expressions of "Oh, Isn't he n darl
ing," "You dear little chap," etc. Lloyd
Edwards na Cnptaln Allen has one of
tho best parts that has fallen to him In
bis career nnd ho carries It off In a
splendid manner. Miss Luce ns tho
Colonel's nlcco Is delightfully nalvo
nnd Bho caused many to wonder why
"Captain Allen was so slow In popping
tho question." Plctro Sosso ns Philip
Gordon wns pleasing as always. Mr.
Sosso Is an earnest, conscientious act
or who puts his wholo soul Into bis
work, nnd tho result Is a clever por
trayal or any part ho assays. Clarcnco
Ferguson as tho. vllllanoiis Mexican
Del Moro, does n bit of character work
that proves him nn actor of consider
Ohio ability. As a rulo ho appears In
'old men" parts, but In his prosont
character, ono would nover suspect
him of playing the kindly old gcntlo-
man, so creditably does ho tuko tho
part of tho "Heavy." Oco. Fernandez
ns tho peppery old "Colonel" furnishes
several laughs; It is hard for bis ad
mirers to nccept lilm in an j tiling but
a comedy role and no matter in what
part ho appears, tho "laugh" is ulvyays
ready for Gcoige. Anna Dodge makes
good ns "Aunt Hulda," und nil tho.oth
ors In tho cist aro pleasing. "Beacon
Lights" Is the offering for tonight.
