F. Dillingham of Honolulu have been estimated by a committee of his creditors to be worth | $2,561,590, while his liabilities amount to $2,673,470. On this showing the commit- tee of creditors in the Hawaiian Isl- ;ands has figured out that there is a surplus of liabilities of $121,880. The same committee has estimated, under present conditions, and reckoning that the liabilities will draw 6 per cent per annum, that his income, unless there is an increase in the earning capacity of his assets, will fall short of paying his | interest by $9080 per annum; and if his life insurance should be continued the | annual shortage in his'funds will be at least $27,000 per annum. Mr. Dillingham has been a leading figure in the B. F. Dillingham Compa- ny, Limited, and a great promoter in | the Hawalian Islands. If the creditors in Honolulu have figured correctly, the assets of the Dillingham Company 6| amount to $1,677,007 and the corpora- | tion's liabilities to $1,280,105. There is, therefore, a surplus of assets, as esti- mated, of $396,901. But if the assets shall earn no more than they did in 1903 and the liabilities draw interest at the rate of 6 per cent per annum, there will be a 1ailure amounting to $31,381 per annum to meet the inter- est charges, so say the company. A recommendation has been made that B. F. Dillingham shall assign all his property to the B. F. Dillingham | Company, Limited, except his shares in the B. F. Dillingham Company; also | that a committee of five Honolulu | creditors and three foreign creditors shall be appointed fo conduct and con- trol in every way the business of the B. F. Dillingham Company, Limited. On the next steamer from Honolulu L. A. Thurston is expected to arrive to | confer with the San Francisco credit- | ors and to make a general report to them regarding the facts disclosed by the investigation of the financial af- fairs of Dillingham and of the corpora- tions with which he has been promi- nently conected. SEEKING LOST HEALTH. Mr, Dillingham is in a sanitarium on Central avenue, where he is seeking to recover his heaith. He is not able to confer with his creditors in this city concerning his business. ‘There are | very large creditors here. The Dilling- ham indebtedness has been principally incurred in an attempt to make a suc- cess of the Olaa sugar plantation, on the island of Hawaii, near Hilo. The indebtedness of Dillingham and of the B. F. Dillingham Company, Lim- ited, amounts, jointly, to $3,958,576. | Against this amount are assets esti- mated to be worth $4,228,598. With this | apparent excess of assets above liabili- the creditors in Honolulu, through | their committee, have nevertheless re- | ported that the outlook good for a failure, to the amount of $49,460 per an- | num, to meet interest charges. The Olaa sugar plantation has produced but two crops. The price of sugar disap- peinted Dillingham, who built his ex- pectations of success upon the price, Dillingham used the stocks and bonds of the Oahu Railway and Land Company and of other corporations to secure those from whom he borrowed the money to enter upon the expensive exponmenl of the Olaa sugar planta- | tion. Banks in San Francisco and a | few capitalists supplied the necessary | funds to get the enterprise started. | Al the enterpriges in which Dilling- ham has been concerned, or a majority of them, have been on a large scale. He possessed endless energy, original- ity and financial daring. When he pro- jected the Oahu Railway and Land Company the idea was generally ridi- culed and it was said that he would | have neither freights nor passengers to carry on the road. The company it was capitalized with stock amounting to $4,000,000 and $2,- 000,000 in bonds. In December last the total assets of this corporation were reported to be $7,200,000. S. C. Allen | was the president, B. F. Dillingham | first vice president, W. F. Allen sec- and A. W. Van Valkenberg secretary. The Olaa Sugar Company, Limited, of Olaa has always had heavy liabil- ities from the start. The capital stock, paid up, was reported in 1902 to be $2,- | 500,000 and its total assets were then stimated at $5,300,000. The Olaa Sugar | Company was authorized, when it was incorporated in 1899, to issue capital stock to the amount of $5,000,000, with | authority to increase this to not to ex- ceed $10,000,000 in total. The original | stock authorized was issued in 250,000 1 shares at $20 each. The incorporators | | | were B. F. Dillingham, L. A. Thurston, A. W. Carter, Andrews. IN MANY ENTERPRISES. There are varieus other enterprises with which B. F. Dillingham has beeen connected, among which are the Hilo Railroad Company, the Woodlawn Dairy, the Waialua Agricultural Com- pany. the Pacific Hardware Company, the Haleiwa Hotel, the MeBryde Sugar Company, the Puna Sugar Company, the Kihei Sugar Company, the Voleano House Company and tise McCully Land Company. It is reported to be the opinion of the Hawajian Creditors’ Company that immediate income will be received only from the Oahu Railway and Land Company’s bonds. Last year there were dividends from the Hilo Railroad Company and also from the Pacific Hardware Company, but the prospect of dividends from these eor- porations during the present year is not considered to be very good. The largest individual creditor of Dillingham and of the Dillingham Company is the Bank of California, which has loaned $450,000 to Dilling- ham and to the Dillingham Company $50,000. Among the creditors of B. F. Dillingham are included the foilowing with the amounts: A. Brier, $75.000; I Steinhart, $75,000; Al- exander & Baldwin, §$05,950; the London and San Francisco Bank, §50,000; Henry F. Allen, $100,000; FEquitable Insurance Company, $34.7 ©000;" San Francisco Savings Unfon, $200,000; Savings_and Loan Society, §75,000: W. O. Smith, $20,000; German Savings and Loan So- clety, $50,000. LOANED TO COMPANY. The B. F. Dillingham, Company (Limited) has borrowed §15,000 .from “the Bank of Hawail: 320,000 from "Bighop & Co P from M. P. Robinson; $25,000 Co. ;- $50,600 E. B.

The bank loans are principally se- cured by stock and bonds of the Olaa plantation, the bonds of the Hilo Rall- road and bonds of the Oahu Railway and Land Company. A San Francisco syndicate comprising banks and indi- viduals holds as security for money Joaned ' Olaa Sugar Company stock amounting to $1,000,000, also $100,000 in Puna Sugar Company bonds and $250,- 000 in Hilo Railroad bonds.

Baldwin & Howell report that each auction sale of Parnassus Heights lots by them during the last twelve months has shown a steady increase in values in that section. At the first sale, held in the early part of June, 1908, the lots averaged $1300 each. The sale of several months ago pro- d@fced an average of between $1550 and $1660 and the lots sold by them yvesterday brought $1786 each. The offerings consisted of sixty-three lots between Hugo and I streets and front- ing on First, Second and Third ave- | nues. The auctioneers announced prior to the sale that the ten lots fronting on First avenue had been reserved, owing to the fact that the City Realty Company had not yet determined how First avenue would be paved. purchasers and were sold for $94,685. The first lot offered was the south- east corner of Fourth avenue and Hugo 'streets, 35x95 feet, which was sold for $3000. Two lots, each 25x110 feet, on the south side of Hugo street, 95 feet east of Fourth avenue, brought $1600 apiece. The southwest corner of Third avenue and " Hugo street, 35x95 feet, was sold for $3000, and the northwest corner of Third avenue and I street, same size, brought $3500.

H. Armstrong, Who Made Famous Trip With President to Wash- ington, Is Visiting City. Wililam H. Armstrong of Chicago, whose-name figures in history with that of Abraham Lincoln, arrived in this city yesterday from Southern Cal- ifornia and is registered at the Pal- ace. Armstrong formed one of the party that escorted Lincoln from the latter’s home in Springfield to Wash- ington in 1861, when a plot to assas- sinate the President was discovered by the employes of Detective Allan Pink- erton and frustrated through plans of that famous secret agent. Lincoln with a party of friends, including Nor- man B Judd, Colonel Ward H. Lan- won, Judge Davis, Major Hunter, Cap- tain John Pope, Colonel Ellsworth and John G. Nicolay, private secretary to the President. Their route was a roundabout one, including many cities in which Lincoln was to speak, among them Cincinnati, Albany, New York, Newark, Philadel- phia, Harrisburg and Battimore. The day before they were {o enter Balti- more the news was conveyed to Allan Pinkerton by one of his men in Balti- more that a plet was on foot theye to kil Lincoln and that & young mem- ber of one of Balttmore's leading fam- ilies was neticeably active in tha plans. Pinkerton ypromptly placed himself in communicalion with the President’s party and quietly had their route changed at Harrisburg se that Lineoin eould be brought by way of Phijadelphia to Washinglon. 1In this undertaking Armstrong assisted Pink- erton and delivered over the President to the detective. Armstang has been making a tour of the coast and has been spending severai days ai Mon- terey. e Room Burglarized in Daylight. The room of Mrs. Louise Kimbalt at 1015 Market street was entered yester- day afternoon and gutted of its con- tents. The woman has occupied room 40 for a month, and vesterday she went out for a short time, and on her return she found that the panel by | the spring lock had been sawed and the door opened. An examination of the room revealed the fact that it had been thoroughly ransacked. Her trunk, which contained $15 and jew- elry, had been broken open -and and the valuables taken. Every stitch of her clothing had been stripped from the hooks in the clothes closet and carried away. On discovering her loss she com- municated with the Police Depart- ment, but so far no arrest has been made. Some ns told her they saw two men leave the houde carrying a large bundle, They went down Mar- | ket street as far as Sixth and turned down that lt.roe‘t Hm Kimball is r woman and can mwned by the heartl thieves. The re- | malning fifty-three lots found ready Bemiss, Mrs. H. | Me- | the | left Springfield February 11| Pittsburg, Cleveland, | INCOME FROM THE CANTEEN The State Is Asked to Make Good Loss Caused by Bell's Amendment tary of State, U. 8. Webb, Attorney General; A. B. Nye, private secretary |of the Governor, and W. S. Melick, | secretary of the State Board of Ex- aminers, will visit the Veterans’ Home, Napa County, and confer with the di- rectors in reference to the application for an additional allowance for the in- stitution. The adoption of Congress- man Bell's amendment abelishing the canteen deprives the home of an #7 come of $12,000 per annum. This money has been used to maintain a band, bowling alley, library, social hall, billiard tables, cardrooms, amusements, embellishment of grounds, extra help in the hospital and other benefits for which the State and Federal governments make no appropriation. The Governor of the State does not fancy the idea of depriving the gld veterans of intellectual and creatuve comforts. Wednesday evening last Governor Pardee met Samuel W. Backus, Hugh M. Burke and John C. Currier of the board of directors and the whole subject matter relating to the proposed additional allowance was reviewed. At the Governor’s request Messrs. Curry, Webb, Melick and Nye will make inquiry on the grqunds rela- tive to the necessity of authorizing a deficiency. ' The Governor indicated that no allowance could be made for the insurance of property or for new buildings, but he is in favor of giving every consideration possible to the old soldiers and sailors in the home. According to the Sacramento Bee the Bell amendment will take away from the veterans themselves all con- | trol of their pensions and place upon | the board of directors the duty of con- ! trolling the pension fund. The ag:- gregate amount of all the pensions due to members of the home will be paid every quarter by the pension agent to the treasurer of the home. ‘When a member leaves the home he will get the amount coming to him on the books, but he cannot draw it in installments to spend the money as he chooses. The inference is drawn from the comment of the newspapers in the Sec- ond Congressional District that the legislation of Congress which forbids the apportionment of Federal money to any State home that maintains a can- teen will enter largely into the political contest in -this Congressional district at the ensuing carpaign. The pur- pose of the Grand Army of the Re- public is to keep out of pilitics. The present commander in chief of the or- ganization, General Black, is a Demo- crat of national renown. The Veterans’ Home at Yountville is in one sense a Grand Army institution. The property, valued at $250,000 and deeded to the State of California, was acquired under the auspices of the Grand Army. The original management has been per- petuated by Governors Budd, Gage and Pardee. The management is indorsed by the Department Encampment, G. A. R, also by the Mexican Veterans and the old Grand Army Association. The attack in Congress on the manage- ment therefore forces the patriotic or- ganizations into the political campaign of the Second district. It is the im- pression that Congressman Bell did not intend to give to the board of directors of the Yountville home entire control of the, pensions. Perhaps he intended to make the rules applying to natiopal homes for disabled volunteers appli- cable te the California home, but in- advertently inserted in his amendment jthe rules governing the old Regular Army Soldiers’ Home in the District of Columbia. According to the Congres- sional Record, only ninety of the Repre- sentatives in Congress voted on the Bell amendment. Three hundred mem- bers were absent ¢r refrained from vot- |- ing. The fighting days of the Grand Army veteran have passed, but the talking season is in full swing; hence it would | not be surprising if a column of spell- binders visited the Second Congress- i fonal District this fall, as all the signs point to a renomination of Theodore Bell by the Democrats of that district. e e CHAMBERLAIN TO SPEAK.—Joseph P.
