Sugar

vIM8S W.
tour British ports, it appears at frat
sight very singular, that the stocks
OflRaW Sugar should be less than in
1850, and very much less than in
1888, although tile general stocks
inh. Europe and America, are so
largely in excess. The fact is, that
the stocks of so-called Raw Sugar
are losing their relative Importance,
more especially, apparently in the
earDier months oil the year, in conse-
quencs: If the rapid increase in the
importasiOn Of White Sugars, which
mFS. not shown in the stocks at all.
In, the frat two months OF 1890, we
received, according TO the Bonrd Of
Trnde Returns. 121,169 tor" OF
Yellow and Brown Sugar, and 8O,166
tops Of White Sugar. None Of the
latter 60,166 tons are shown in the
Teturu of stocks, which in the months
s,f, January and February thus omitted
altogether about 40 per cent. Of the
entire imports, AS the stocks Of
Raw Sugar are returned rs 4 .722
toms, an addition Of 40 per cent. to
them would mean $1,000 tons more,
IN which case the stocks in the four
ports would approach 204 900 tons.
The increase in the imports OF White
Sugar ] thus, by degrees, rendering
the present British Sugar stock re-
turns almost valueless. 1t would not
be ! difficult matter to get the whar'
fingers 10 London and the out ports
TO publish monthly returns at the
stocks Of Foreign White Sugars.
Indeed, the publication has only been
preyen,ed hitherto by the peititogg'
ing ideas OF business entertained by
some of the foreign Reiners, who
imagine that ii Is 20 their interest to
conceal such matters. This, how
ever, 10 a matter Tor the trade 70 de-.
eide, and directly they think the
publication necessary, it will be q
very simple matter to break through
such paltry difficulties.
The, diminution in the stock OF
Raw Sugar ueld there is also due to
smother cause. As the trade increa'
sea, the question Of housing charges
becomes more important, and people
are disposed to let Sugar lie in the
predicting countries as long az. possi'
Ole. The Sugar trade on the. Com
tinans 10 also much better organised
shaD 10 used to be, and there are
greater facilities tor housing Sugars

are In . much better position than
they formerly were, to resist. the
operation Of speculative rings, who

THOUGHT OF THWING.

The Board of Regents Offers DIR. Charles r.
Thwing the Chancellorship Of the Law
renee University.
LAWRENCE, Kan, March 12.-Rev.
DR.. Charles F. Thwing, pastor Of the
First Congregational Church, of Mime
apolis, arrived in the city last night
from Kansas City accompanied by Vice
Chancellor Spangler.
DIR. Thwing's visit to Lawrence is in
response to an invitation from the Board
of Regents who will, at their meeting
to-day, offer him the Chancellorship Of
the University.
DR.. Thwing's salary is to be $1,000 in
stead of $4,000 as heretofore. The Re-
gents have been carefully considering
the matter for nearly year, and the
ground has been we'll canvassed. They
found that it would be impossible to get
q suitable man for $4,000, and as the
salary is discretionary with them they
increased it to $1,000
Last year DR.. Thwing was rendered
the presidency of the Iowa University
and no is now said to be debating be-
tween accepting an offer from Oberlin
College or the. University. He prefers
the West If the salary is equal.

THE EIFFEL TOWER.
Meteorologlsts Declare It 20 he More USE
full Than IL Seemed.

MeteOrologists Declare Et 20 Ne More USE
full Than It Seemed.
French meteorologists have lately
made the agreeable discovery that M.
Eiffel's tower will be Of far more value
for scientific experiments than was orig
inally imagined. 1t is, Of course, un-
necessary to remark that many observa-
tories in this country are situated at .
much greater height above the level OF
the sea, but this is not the point The
altitude Of the structure itself rendersit
far more independent Of the surround
ing influence than the average observa-
tory, and actually places 1t in che same
category as those erected on mountains
like the Pic du Midi. This has already
been ascertained from observations made
with view to recording the velocity OF
the wind, it having been found hat on
the summit OF the tower 1t is greatest
at the very hours when the breeze Is
strongest on the highlands Thus, at
places situated no great height above
the sea level the velocity Of the wind is
usually noticeable from noon to two p.
M, while it is less perceptible ut day
break. On elevated ground, on the
other hand, the wind falls in the middle
of the day, increasing after sunset.
This last phenomenon has been re-
peatedly remarked on the iron pile,
though-as / may add from personal OBJ
servation-what wind there may be al
most invariably moderates in Paris on
the approach of night. This is particu-
larly noticeable in summer, when there
is almost always dead suitry calm at
sunset. Curious to relate, the temper
allure on the top Of the Eiffel tower is
also more even than is the case on terra
firma. Thus, while the average differ
ence in Paris in the twenty-four hours
amounts to ten degrees Centigrade, on
the summit Of the huge monument there
is only change Of five degrees Cent?
grade, precisely the same as that record
ed at the Pic du Midi. In summer the
thermometer on the tower stands lower
and in winter higher than 1t does on the
ground below. 1t is a noteworthy fact
that while some time ago severe frost
prevailed here, o strong, warm breeze
was blowing above, and that for upward
Of three days this pleasant temperature
was enjoyed on the summit of the tower
before Parisians had the benefit of it.
In short those meteorologists who have
had regular opportunities Of testing the
resources Of M. Eiffels structure are
eloquent in its praise, declaring that II
is simply unique as an observatory
