The estimated cost price Of such an i~nstalla-
ton in England would be about R1500, or less
if engine and boiler are already existing at the
sugar works which are to be fitted out on the
diffusion plan.
2-WATER.
The quantity of water required for the difu-
sion process is equal to the quantity of cane
extracted, l. e., OF. ton Of water is added to
every ton or cane slices. This water does not
all reach the clarffer, since the diffusion Juice
passes from vessel to vessel in succession, and
the fresh water displaceS the juice last in con-
tact with the cane slices. In this manner 50
per cent. of the fresh water remains upon the
extracted slices when the vessel is opened for
being emptied and refill with fresh cane, and
only about ~ per cent. of the water added to
the cane IS passed through the battery. The
water which remains in contact with the ex-
tracted cane slices can be utilized again. 50
that IN localities where fresh water is scarce
the demand would not exceed 10 or so cal.
Ions of water for every ton of cane worked M.
A factory, for working up 100 tons of cane per
day Wolid only require a supply of 1000 to
0OOo gallons OF water per day Independent of
water required for boilers and other purposes).
3.-DrFFUSIoN JUICE.
The diffusion juice is a mixture of the LIQUID
contents OF the cells OF the sugar cane, and Of
the water added to the cane slices. The difu-
sion juice is therefore by nature thinner or less
concentrated than the natural juice Of the
plant. The difference in concentration, how
ever, IS diminished degree by degree in each
successive vessel passed through by the difu-
sion JUICE. The following table shows the diff
terent degrees of density arrived at by the
diffusion juice in a battery of ten vessels, of
which seven were employed for working stimuli

The final degree of concentration arrived at,
with the diffusion juice at Aska, was 1879 de-
grecs balling, while the natural juice extracted
from the same cane by mills gave an indica
ton OF II degrees balling. Neglecting the
difference Of character of the two kinds of Juice
(the mill juice containing more impurities than
the diffusion juice), there appears an excess of
water equal to about 20 per cent. in the COM
position of the diffusion Juice.
The quantity of water eVaporated from the
diffusion juice was greater by about 20 per
cent. than the quantity of water which must be
eyaporated from mill juice.
For comparing the two kinds of iuice with
regard to the impurities mixed with them, the
following table gives the results Of a compare
tive analysis
Mill juice-water 8I.842, sugar 1878,
glucose 0.761, organic substances O.27, salts
0,3G9.
Diffusion Underwater 85.I92, sugar 13.625,
glucose 0.723, organic substances 0.I9, salts
0.27.
The diffusion juice is considerably purer and
less inclined to fermentation than the mill
juice; it is clear and Transparent, it loses only
II per cent. in the ~olarifier, and the raw sugar
produced from it is much better in regard 20
col)r and consistency than the raw sugar made
from mill juice under equal circumstances.
a OF DIFFUSION JUICE
PRODUCED FROM THE CANE.
The quantity of cane charged into the bat
terry were carefully registered throughout the
whole season, the quality of the cane was test
ed from time to time by extracting a small
quantity of the cane in a small roller mill and
testing the quality of the juice the density of
the diffusion juice and its chemical compost
ton were carefully noted and registered, and
the quantity of juice delivered to the claritier
regularly measured.
The following table shows the quantity of
juice produced during one week
Cane worked-578 tons s cwt
Diffusion juice produoed-62S tons 6 cwt.
Density of juice-13. 500 degrees balling.
Quantity of green sugar in the juice-1696
cwts.
Percentage of green sugar'in the juice upon
the cane worked up-14.6 per cent.
The yield of green sugar, !. e., of saoharine
matter, salts and organic substances in the
diffusion juice produced was 14.6 per cent. upon
the weight of cane worked up.
Comparing this yield with the actual COM
position of the cane, the analysis shows in the
cane following the percentage:
80 per cent. juice of II degrees balling.

has suddenly overwhelmed her? If we
were submerged with floods ike Louisi-
ana, or overrun with robbers like South
Carolina, we might plead inability to
pay in the face of dire misfortune. AS
1t is, we are surprised to see the men
who have been loudest In their praise
of Tennessee's rich and varied re-
sources and its attractions for immi-
grants, now trying to induce our grand
old State to subscribe the pauper's
oath.
But let us be practical, and see the
real amount of relief that Mr.. Tillman
promises, by plan which he confesses
to be at variance with our literal or
legal obligations" He speaks of start
ing his plan with only half the present
annual taxation. He is no doubt hon.
est in this, but it shows how very little
he has studied his own project. Pro-
possingl topay off each year onemillon
principal and interest at 7:30 per cent,
he talks of raising the first year only
Sl,07S, 900. What is he going to do
with the running expenses of the State
Government? Does he propose to
stop the whole machinery? Certainly
not. When he talks of reducing taxa
ton one-half, he merely shows that he
has not studied the subject.
Surprising the present tax just ade-
quate to the present plan of interest
payment, his $50 scheme would give
the first year relief of nearly 10 per
cent. If merchants and other privil-
eyes did not get the lions share of this
relief-if the landed farmer got his due
proportion-the present tax of 40 cents
would be reduced by 6 cents. Giving
taxpayers the high average of $4,000
property each, the startling amount of
relief to the individual would be six
dollars per year! The mechanic or
small farmer who owns only $1,000
worth would be inspired into new ener-
gy by having lifted from his shoulders
the tremendous burden of 60 cents a
year, or a nickel per MONTH What an
immense relief this would be to tax
ridden people. While enraptured with
this vision, let us remember that the
second year would call for the payment
of two years interest, the third of three
years, and so on, entirely extinguishing
this wonderful relief in a short time,
after which the present burden would
increase in the regular ratio of arith-
metical progression.

The Threatened Rupture with the

ton.

The Threatened Rupture with the
President on the Financial Cues
ton.
Washington Special (June y to the Cincinnati
Commercial.
The air has been full of rumors to-
day as to a new decision of a nature
corresponding with the Presidents
views arrived at by the conference COM
mittee on the currency bill, and they
prove to have been based on a himsy
foundation. The committee have not
agreed on any measure that will be likely
to meet with the Presidents approval,
and they say that there is no prospect
that they will be able to unite on any
thing that will be acceptable to him.
They seem to feel it is unreasonable to
hope for an understanding; that 1T is
altogether out of the question. They
will meet again tomorrow morning to
resume their apparently useless dis
cussior of the subject.
The excitement on this subject has
not been at all allayed by time. The
bitter feelings that were aroused on the
veto measure have revived with more
than their original intensity. The talk
is not so loud and gaseous, but the
swearing is much more elaborate, and
is done in business-like manner, that
evinces careful preparation IN private
prior to the public performance. Re-
publicans who have had the reputation
of their party at heart take very
gloomy view of the future. They have
not behaved for some weeks with un-
seemly hilarity, born in an over SAN
guine faith in their prospects, but since
the Jones letter has been printed their
spirits have sunk to very low mark.
They would like to have harmonious
action with the President, but fear that
Johnsonian rupture is postponed for
but little time. They would like to
have the party as unit against him as
the second best thing, but he has been
in the party SO long that they despair
of accomplishing this.
There are quite a number of the
leading Republican politicians from
different sections of the country here
for the purpose of comforting with the
prominent members of the party In
Congress. They are badly frightened,
and the reports they make of the state
of feeling In the country only serves
to heighten the general feeling of
alarm.
a Republican caucus viii be held in
the House tomorrow night to elect a

Senator Logan, though very much
disguised with the Presidents memo
randum, is not 80 demonstratlve IN his
wrath as be was when the veto message
demolished Merrimon's imitation bill
was promulgated. The awful hot wealth
er of the last week or ten days has pro-
dueed soothing effect upon the nerves
of the dark complexionedl Illinois states
man and rendered him quite docile.
When he read, in the Saturday morn
ing papers, the correspondence between
the President and Senator Jones, he did
not put on his war paint and go out
upon the street and proclaim his deter
mination to fight the Administration
tooth and nail. He did not dash down
to the Ebbitt and denounce Comptrol-
Ter Knox, before a crowd OF gaping
loafers. of the crime of furnishing
the President with false informa-
ton about the National Bank CIR
culation. He did not swear and swag-
ger about as he did upon that memoir
able day when the President took the
starch out of the Southern and West
ern inhationists; but he sneered and
frowned, and was sarcastic. He thought
the President might have fonnd more
needy person than Senator Jones,
through whom to have put forth his
manifesto. The seven-millionaire had
already reached the top notch of fame
and fortune. Being a Welshman by
birth, the Nevada Senator's political
ambition could carry him no higher.
Now" said Mr.. Logan, IF Gen. Grant
had only got Sutro, of tunnel fame and
lobby infamy, to have asked for the
memorandum, he would have done the
latter individual a great service, and
got his peculiar thong hts on finance be-
fore the country all the same" He
hoped Sutro would not be overlooked
the next time the President desired to
bully the Congress of the United
States.
Another Western Senator SAID ne
supposed hereafter it would be neces-
sary for Senators to consult Jones be-
fore voting for or against any meas
ure brought before that body. He al
so remarked that he had frequently
conversed with Senator Jones on the
subject of the finances of the country,
and heard that gentleman express him
self freely and unreservedly. He was
struck with the similarity of the Ian
guage used during the conversation
and certain sentences in the Presidents
memorandum. OF course it was quite
possible Jones had drawn his inspira-
ton from the President. with whom he
is on intimate terms, and it might be
surmised quite the reverse.
Senator Sherman has little to say.
and seems disposed to regard the mat
ter as very serious one.
