rest. Every man i'm the county who is

1t has always.been curious fact to
contemplate that whenever wheat goes
up point or two flour rises about ten
points; but that when wheat gets low,
the millers invariably forget to reduce
the price of -four in proportion. During
the fall and winter, wheat was only
worth from 80 to GO cents, and yet -four
sold here from 50 for the best; and now
with wheat worth IS 10 30 cent flour is
selling for $3.50. This latter price may
be abOnt right, but what about the
ruling prices when wheat was so low?

OUR SUPPLEMENT.

- Our double page supplement to-day
contains 3 full report of the trial of
Adolph B. SpreckeIs in San Fran
cisco. up to the adjournment Of the
Court on Friday, the 18th instant /;
also, a full compilation of foreign
news to the 18th instant, inclusive.
This is nine days later than the news
published in the ADVERTISER yester-
day by the Ella.
The main feature of the Spreckels'
trial is the continued cross-examina-
ton of Colonel Spreckels, as to his
business relations in the Islands,
and the conditions governing labor
contracts here. The cross-examina-
ton was most thorough, and Colonel
Spreckels effectually disposed of the
malicious ISLANDERS 20 which he has
been subjected, as well in this country
.as in the Pacific Coast Press, which
derived most OF its malicious untruths
from papers owned and published in
Honolulu As a matter of fact, the
worst enemies of this Kingdom have
been the newspapers in question.
Their malice, however, has overshot
its mark, and the men who furnished
the money to keep them alive, in the
hope of injuring Claus Spreckels,
have most of all hurt themselves and
their friends.

prosecution Of Adolph B. Sprecksls
by M. DeYOung, of the San Francisco

ton, followed, arguing for the admission of

To.DAY's "ADVERTlsER. ="

The public of Honolulu have an
opportunity of perusing, in to-day's

newspaper fully equal, in all
its departments and details, to q
metropolitan journal in either Eng
land or America. 1t is an exception
ally newsy and interesting paper.
Foreign items of general interest are
given at length, and it is safe to say
that our readers have presented to
them in single issue of the ADvER-
EIsER the principal events of the
worlds doings in the period COM
prised between the 9Th to the after
noon of the 18th inclusive.
This is feat in journalism of which
any newspaper might feel proud. It
has not been accomplished without
large expenditure of money and the
application of much labor, and we
confidently look to an appreciative
public to acknowledge and sustain
our efforts to give them the best pos
gible newspaper with generous and
loyal support.

beets at 81 so per ton and yielding good
average Of saechsrine, it is possible to pro-
duce beet sugar in Germany at profit Of
~ cents, delivered free on board steamer
at Hamburg. It is possible that the mini
mum cost Of production Of beet sugar has
been reached. The Standard Company Of
California, which claims process of ex-
tracing more sAecharins from bsets than
others can, produced fine white granulated
sugar during the last campaign at q cost Of
"a cents per pound, after paying 81 50 per
ton for beets. The minimum cost of pro-
ducing cane sugar has hardly been reached,
for the reason that where labor is the
cheapest the other appliances are not of the
most modern and economical characters.
Until these conditions are met under the
most favorable circumstances, the world
will never know how cheap cane sugar can
be produced. It is claimed that the finest
Demarara sugar can be laid on the London
market at las. 10d. per hundred, or S.S cents
per pound. Under the best appliances,
there is great deal of saccharine that is not
extracted from the cane. Improved methods
may save some thing that is now lost in this
particular, and the refuse may be put to
more valuable uses.
BIsMARcK's POLICY.
In an interview, in San Francisco, with
Mr.. A. Hoffnung, who has just arrived from
London, and is thoroughly posted on the
position OF the sugar market there. that
gentleman stated he felt fully assured that
sugar would maintain its present price, and
probably "go up" His reason for making
this statement was that it was Bismarck's
present policy to impose duty on grain,
for the purpose of diverting the German
agriculturists from the further cultivation
of beet sugar, in which there was no profit
to that of grain, in which there would be a
profit. The Germans, like other nations,
must have grain, and it is better that they
should grow it themselves than that they
should be dependent upon other countries
for their supply. This would be more par
ticularly the case in the event of any Eu-
ropean war. If this policy of Bismarck be
carried out, then, through the decreased
production of beet sugar which rules the
markets of the world, he will prove verita-
bic friend to Hawaiians.

The Rice Market.

Our San Francisco correspondent reports
that the rice market in that city is now very
firm. There are no stoke of Hawaiian rice
in first hands and the jobbing price has been
advanced to Sc IS per bag. This is owing
to the advices received from here that our
crop has been partly destroyed by floods,
and that our exports in this line will be con-
siderably diminished. Further, the imports
of rice at San Francisco for the month of
May aggregated only S,2S4,44s pounds,
valued at $7O,937, as against 1884, 1897
pounds, valued at $494,ss2 in the same
month of the preceding year. This is de-
crease in one month of 1853, $40 pounds.
The total imports of rise, at San Francisco,
from January LIST to June LIST, 1885, stands
thus
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1885-06-23

From these figures it will be seen that
there has been decrease of almost million
pounds in the receipts, for the current year,
from these islands alone. China, moreover,
shows a shortage of coo. 900 pounds, and no
rice has been received this year on the Coast
from Japan or the British East Indies.
The aggregate shortage in receipts at San
Francisco to June 1, 1885, as compared with
last year. is 2.762, 1873 pounds, of the value of
$1O4195. Mixed China rice is strong at
81 1904 As. A higher range of prices is
anticipated so that, in the present condition
of the market, shippers of rice may be con-
sidered very fortunate.

The above shows an average of 7.32c (for 80
per cent. Notable though the advance has
been. sugar remains almost unprecedentIy
low figures.
To understa the local bearing Of these
figures. we must explain that the average
polarization of San Francisco sugars is SO
per cent, and the average price at which
they were sold in 1884 was 81 80 for SO per
cent, which equals S9s per ton in San Fran
cisco. The price to-day is SIS 80, that is 1c
per pound, or $40 per ton advance. Should
the advance in Manila and San Francisco
equal the London advance, the rise would be
S28 per tom
