SUGAR AND THE RECIPROCITY
TREATY.

Secretary of the Treasury, Win
dom, has refused the application of
the American Sugar Refinery Com
pany for the resampling and retest-
ing of certain sugars imported here.
The importers failed to make appli-
cation within the time limit al
lowed by law, and state that the
failure was due to the neglect of the
clerk in their employ. The excuse
was not deemed satisfactory by the
Secretary. This decision settles the
dispute over the duty on the West
meath's cargo of Javan sugar.
The first of feet of eight vessels
engaged to bring sugar from Ma
Mia for the California Sugar Re
fnery arrived on the 28th of June.
This was the Australia, and she is
credited with $500 tons, or 100000
pounds, one of the largest cargoes
ever landed here from the Philip
pine Islands.
The sugar market in the east and
abroad is exceedingly strong At
the latest dates the aggregate Of the
worlds visible supply was $4,000
tons against 1,023,O0O tons a year
ago. Mr.. LIGHT has revised his est
mate of the beet-root crop making it
2,94O,000 tons a reduction of $4,000
tons from his latest figures.
TRADE AND RECIPROCITY.
The periodical attack on the reel
procity treaty is at hand. In the
Chicago Commercial Bulletin the
following statement appears: Col.
VIM. T. Switzler has prepared a
statement showing the total amounts
of duties RENTED from the Ha-
waiian Islands under the provisions
of the reciprocity treaty. This
treaty went into effect September 8
1876, and from that time the total
amount of duties RENTED has been
$38, JOY. These millions have
gone entirely to benefit a few
planters and have not afforded the
people of the United States the
slightest relief.
Col. Switzle then goes on to knock
down the card house he set up by
giving the following combined value
of imports and exports into and from
the United States and Hawaii for a
series of years:

Automatlc nirusion Apparatus.

Automatic Diffusion Apparatus.
Mr.. EDITOR: In a late issue OF
the ADVERTISER you publish des-
crlption of New Automatic Diffu
sion Apparatus for beets, cane chips
or bagasse, and while this is a step
in the right direction, it might be
interesting for some of your readers
to know what has already been &C
complished in this line.
About the year 1880, M. Charles
and NJ. Ferret invented and put into
practical use a diffusion continue for
cane chips or beets.
The intention being to do away
with the present intermittent cell
battery, several beet factories in Eu
rope were supplied with this appar-
atus, but the cell battery undoubt-
eddy still holds its own-as it has
been found that the liquid could be
diffused through the stationary mass
of chips or beets more satisfactorily
than the chips could be moved
through the desired stationery liquid
The diffusion continue of Charles
and Perret was constructed as fol
lows: The megass to be diffused on
coming from the first mill drops III
at one extremity, of a slightly in.
clined cylinder or tube of desired
length, and meets with revolving
screw or conveyor which propels tc
the other extremity on its way the
megass meets with more or les:
diluted liquid or juice, the juice O.
greatest density being at the poin
where the megass enters, and Ii
nihil or nearly so at the end of the
cylinder where conveyer takes III
the defeated megass to convey it tx
the second mill where it is again
pressed.
This of course would be fitted will
all necessary connections for heat
ing, drawing of the juice, etc.
Yours,
SUCROsE.

The Commercial News contains a
vigorous defense of the Treaty. It
says that this increase in trade is
entirely attributable to it and that
in concluding the treaty the United
States secured to American citizens
the trade which otherwise would
almost certainly have gone to other
nationalities. Moreover the trade
has given employment to a feet of
American vessels and the refinery
business in this city directly or in
directly employs thousands of men.
Under the present arrangement, also,
the United States has naval coal
ing station and a foothold on the
Islands and the position of this
country is SO well understood that
there is no possible danger of any
complications such as threatened the
country at Samoa.
The export from San Francisco to
Hawaii during the six months end
ing June Both was $4,000 larger
than for the corresponding six
months of 1883. During June the
exports were valued at 1896, 300 and
for the Six months at $1,6O8, 100.
During the fiscal year of 1888 and
1889 the Islands took 6086 centals of
wheat valued at $S947, 48264 barrels
of flour valued at $215,619, 133,743
centals of barley valued at $116, 499,
235O0 centals of oats valued at $780,
1888 and 1874 centals of corn valued
at $9769. In the six months ending
June Both there were 1881 arrivals
from the Islands and 301 departures.

REMARKs.-The above communica-
ton touches upon matter which
has frequently been referred to in
and out of the newspapers. The
through steamers leave generally on
Saturdays for San Francisco, and
the intermediate steamers on Fri
days. Consequently the correspon-
dence arriving on Sundays from all
parts of the group, fails to connect
with the through boat which carries
the fast European mail; while for
the intermediate steamer, all CORE
spondence arriving here after IL
o'clock on Fridays must be sent by
sailing vessels, with chance of
thirty days passage. This is very
unsatisfactory to correspondents
living on the other islands, which
often contribute in one week from
one to two thousand foreign letters
to be dispatched abroad.
But how shall this failure to make
connection be remedied? The
Oceanic Company has once changed
the date of sailing of the inter
mediate steamer from Tuesday to
Friday, at the urgent request of mer-
chants and others residing here.
But this has been no improvement
rather the reverse. Nearly every
week one of our Hawaii steamers
can be seen passing the incoming or
outgoing Australia on Fridays, just
too soon or too late for the mails.
The Oceanic Company having once
changed its schedule at the request
of our citizens, cannot be expected
to change back again to the old time
table. What seems to be the easiest
way to accommodate such CORE
spondents would be for the island
steamers to arrive day sooner or
sail day later, to make connection
with the foreign mail steamers.
Prompt connections and rapid tran
sit of mails between the islands and
with foreign countries, is the secret
of prosperous trade. But when
every branch of industry is hamp-
cred with vexatious delays, the an
noyance and pecuniary loss can
hardly be calculated.
After all, there can be no perma-
nent or satisfactory change until a
semi-monthly line of steamers is
established between Honolulu and
San Francisco. The increasing
trade and travel seem to warrant
such line now.

UNSATISFACTORY MAIL SERVICE.

WAIMEA, KAUAI, July &c, 1889.
Mr.. EDITOR: The foreign mail that
leaves Honolulu Fridays and Saturdays
every fourth week, has to leave Kauai
the Saturday previous, thus losing al
most a week each foreign mail. 1t does
not seem to be impossible or even diff
cult for the Postmaster General or the
Minister of Interior to cause better
arrangement to be made for Kauai, that
sends huge foreign mail each time.
By causing the foregoing idea to be
expressed in your paper you will oblige
the public of Kauai and your obedient
servant. NALDEMAR kNUDSEN.

The statistics of the Australasian
colonies for 1888, just published,
show total increase of population
of 10000 people. New Zealand
heads the list in excess of births over
deaths. The trade of the various
colonies has amounted to G121, $685.
600, which is equal to little over
f35 per head. Victoria has imported
most largely, exceeding her exports
by G10,000,000. With the exception
of South Australia and New Zealand
all the colonies have imported more
than they exported. South Australia
shows the largest trade return, which
is equal to f39 per head. New Tea
land stands sixth on the list in this
respect, with f2O lbs. per head. The
total tonnage cleared in the colonies
during the year was 14,689,00O tons.
