SUGAR BUSINESS.
The Spreckles Company Which Manages
the California TTade-How the
Games is Played.

SAN Francisco, Nov. Is.
The annual meeting of the Hawaiian Com
mercial aud Sugar Company was held here,
Saturday last. Claus Spreckles and his son.
representing the firm of J. ID. Spreckles &
Co., are the principal shareholders and hold a
controlling interest in the company. The
capital of the concern is Sl0,000,000.
1t vas formed for the purpose of purchasing
certain lands owned by Claus Spreckles on
the Island of Maui, one of the Hawaiian
groups, and certain privileges were conseded
to him by the Hawaiian government and also
to lease for 80 years other lands on the island
owned bv him. In consideration of these
lands and privileges. Claus Spreckles and his
son received Sc, 400, 900 in fully paid up stock
of the company, the balance of stock repre-
sentiug SO 500, 900 held by other stockholders,
has been called up and expended, so that the
capital stock is fully paid up. The assets of
the company purchased with $1,000 900, paid
in by outside shareholders, are four sugar
mills, some 35 miles of railroad with equip
ment, reservoir and canal.
The report of the company states that all
available capital has been exhausted and that
1000, 600 additional has been expended on
other islands, which paw largely. 1t is a well
known fact he has $500 900 in corn laying to
his credit in one of the banks of this city.
The chances are that many plantations will
eventually fall into his hands.
To meet this additional expenditure. Claus
Spreckles has borrowed on his individual
notes from the Nevada bank 81, 900, 900. He
asked the shareholders to secure him sor this
loan. THIS involved the question of levying
an assessment on the fully paid up stock and
the matter was referred to a committee.
The loss sustained by the company is ex-
planned by the drop in the price of sugar The
crop from three plantations is selling at SS7
per ton against sl20 last year; the yield is
also small, owing to the scarcity of water.
Spreckles said that more canals were wanted
and more money to build them, but he refused
to advance it for the benefit of outsiders.
The matter as il stands give Spreckles con
troll OF the property. He retires from the
presidency to give the other shareholders an
opportunity of discussing more freely the
affairs of the company, but itill retains his
original holding. His advances do not
embarrass him He has several other sugar
plantations.

+. II. Brgnell of this city, who left in June
last in command of transport expedition to
Misiassimi has returned He says that with
great difficulty he reached the northern boun-
dary of the Provinces. They came across
into Rupert's land and at distance of 800
miles from Lake st. John, they reached the
southwestern extremity of Lake Mistassimi.
The general trend of the lake so far as known
is from southwest to northeast, stretching
awav from the bay and height of land in the
southwest to an unknown distance toward
Eastern Maine and Labrador. The waters
of the lake swarm with fish of all kinds and
fur bearing animals are abundant. The
climate is agreeable and the region is suitable
for agricultural purposes. 1t is said that the
Hudson Bay company have had an agency
there for upwards of 100 years, but have held
it secret that a lake of such dimensions ever
existed in that part of the country. 1t is
supposed to be as large as Lake Superior.

EXICAN RIOTS.

Probable Cause.
NrErA LAREDO. Mexico. Nov |

NUEvA LAREDO, Mexico, Nov, Is.
Alarming rumors fill the air regarding
serious revolutionary outbreaks throughout
the States of Nueva Leon and Coahulia.
Reliable information is almost impossible to
be had. The people are fleeing from the
cities into the mountains The mlitis of this
city have been under arms for two days past
awaiting trouble.
The supposition is that the present out
breaks are the outgrowth of the bloody riots
in various cities on election day. week ago
last Sunday The town of Silina Hidalgo,
since that date has been under martial law.
The government troops have obtained posses
sion of Sslina, and the revolutionists are
encamped on the hills near by. The latter
are reported as greatly outnumbering the
regulars. The people sympathize with the
revolutonists. These revolutionary out
breaks are significant when it is remembered
that Gen. Diaz will be inaugursted president
in two weeks. Old Mexicans here foresee
stormy times ahead.
