From time to time disputes arise as to
Touring mills, and the various estimates
given seldom come within thousands Of
barrels of the actual figures. The Tribune
interviewed Secretary Sturtevant on the
subject after his personal tour through
the mills seeking precise figures Of capac-
ity, and the gentleman very kindly gave
US a few interesting fctS. When the
mills now in process of erection or rath-
er completion, are finished and running,
which will probably be as early as May |,
together with The mills now in operation
the daily capacity will be 24,525 barrels,
or 1888, 575 barrels per year Of 3l3 work

any state or district in the world. Two
of the leading firms have capacity for g.
500 barrels per day each and third firm
have capacity for 1000 barrels Der day,
being Il total of 900 barrels per day for
three firms. Not many years since the
sixteen mills here had capacity Of about
250 barrels per day, or equal to the one
1000 barrel mill referred to above, and
each OF the sixteen mills was valued at
$40 900 or total valuation of S725, 600
enough to almost build three 900 barrel
mills oday. The mills never enjoyed
greater prosperity than at'ths time--in

through some hocuSpocus of the employees
of the Sultan's stable one of the horses
selected had been exchanged for a dis

TO refuse the Sultan's gift would have
been Il deadly insult, and besides, he had
no right to do anything of the kind ;whilc
to find fault with it would have been q
deadier. Finally q bright idea struck

though General Grant was enchanted
with the two noble stcedS that were ac-
corded him by the magnlticence of the
Sultan, he would, unfortunately, be una

Turk was profuse in civilitIeS and apollo

Souud and handsome animal of another
color was sent in its stead.

roundly against him this morning, but
presented a strange anomaly a moment
after sentence was pronounced, by
pleading hard to have the fine re-

would not listen, until the man him
self begged to be allowed to leave the
city, and was released, His defense
was made with streaming eyes, while
hers was given With the greatest conn.,

While dressing to attend the Lolita
matinee last Saturday, a young lady,
named Eagan, residing at the corner
of Elliott and St. Martin street, sank
to the floor and died in few moments
after. The lady had been busy at
work during the early part of the day,
and seemingly in the best Of health.
1t turned out that she was afflicted
with heart disease, end this malady
caused her sudden taking off. The
father has been quite i'll for
some time past and the effect of his
decease, it is feared, will
prove disastrous to him. The funeral
Of the maiden took place yesterday,

and following the darky up, caught
him behind a gate in a dark alleyway,
and after a tussle succeeded in putting
the nippers on. At the station he
gave his name as VIII Green, and was
evidently greener than he looked. A

in the gutter, a few moments before
firing the shot, was entered against him
this morning.

snow storm in the GnIt.

Since last night at eight o'clock it
has been showing. About four inches
of snow now on the ground" This
came from New Orleans and was
posted on the cotton exchange black
boards during the forenoon. A visitor
Of mischievious turn, put a snow disc
on the cotton exchange map over
Havana and another over Punta
Rassa, Florida. The latter place is
the extreme southern limit Of the frost
line, while at Havana the temperature
has never been known to drop below
81 degrees, hence the Havana snow
storm is a false alarm, though that at
New Orleans is a frigid reality.
