He was on the board of the Guardian Trust Company, Bishop Trust Company, Inter-Island Steam Navigation Company and Alexander & Baldwin. Despite his role in the overthrow, deposed Queen Liliuokalani selected him to be a founding trustee of her own estate when she made her will in December 1909. Her personal assets were left in a trust to benefit orphans. On November 30, 1915, Prince Jonah Kūhiō Kalanianaole challenged the will in court, saying she was "of weakened mind" under the influence of the trustees.

They described him using a mix of stereotypes:He was narrow-minded as a New Englander, domineering as a Russian Czar, yet suave as a Frenchman.
