FAST ON A JAGGED ROCK.
Revenue Cutter Bear Wrecked i'm the
Harb0r of Sitka.

SAN FRANCISCO. June THE United
States revenue cutter Bear is almost "a to-
tai wreck. and possibly by this time is bait
tered to pieces. That was re-
ceived in San Francisco last night from
the officers OF the well-known vessel. which
saws she is fast on the rocks at the en-
trance to the harbor at Sitka- The steamer
was blowing her way into the harbor at
good speed, on the night of May q. when
she struck on a rock. All efforts to get her
off were unavailing. she went on at high
water, and the officers state In their brief
dispatch that they have very little hope
of ever getting her off. Her stern was the
part 10 suffer most. and the dispatch says
that her rudder. propeller and stern post
were gone. ana In a sea the vessel must
surely break up. as 1t would be impossaoee
for her TO stand any amount OF pounding
on the jagged points OF the rock on which
she rests
The Bear left San Francisco about six
weeks ago 10 join the Boring sea feet to
prctect the seals. In her hold she had about
two hundred tons of freight for the naval
supply stations at Point Clarence and Point
Barry. and IL IL is lost the cutters will nee
essariiy be short of supplies unless another
vessel is sent up with the necessary cargo.
No lives were reported lost.

PROFITS OF THE SUGAR TRUST.

Willett & Gray's Analysis. a pamphlet on
sugar by experts. gives some very interest
ing facts regarding sugar refining in the
past. 1t shows that in 1883. under the high
tariff On sugars, raw sugars cost 5.9O7 cents
a pound and refined sold at 7.149 cents, a
ing was then ive-eighths of a cent per
pound. which left about fve-eighths of a
cent a pound, or $14 a ton, as the profits
of refining. The same result appeared in
the analysis of 1889. In 1890 the competition
was sharper. and toward the close of the
year the certainty Of the change of the Nc
Kinley law reduced profits SO that the diff
ference of price between raw and refined
was only .70s of a cent. and the cost of re-
fining that year being nine-slxteenths of a
cent, the net profit was 50. q a ton. This is
not a large profit when a single ton is con-
sidered, but when the president of the trust
reports that 100000 tons were refined by
the trusts reineries. the aggregate net
profit was a considerable sum of money.
All refineries that could not turn out a
thousand barrels a day being closed, the
cost of refining now is very much less than
in 1880. In 1891 the organ of the Sugar Trust
said that the cost of refining did not exceed
nalf a cent a pound. The census authorities
were utterly unable to procure from the
trust any statement which would reveal the
cost of the process of refining. Representa-
tive Warner. of New York, who has inves-
tigated the whole subject asserts that the
total expenses Of refining are about 90 cents
a hundred pounds, and that all of the cost,
counting depreciation of plant and all al
lowances, does not exceed 40 cents a hun
dred pounds. 1t is significant that the trust
remains silent while such figures are pub
lished. Other figures given show that with
the extension and better facilities for re-
filming the trust can do it as cheap, if not
cheaper, than 1t can be done
For that reason the duty of the present
law should be repealed and sugar put upon
the free list. Instead of that, the schedule
adopted by the Senate gives the trust a
differential duty of 4S1s per cent. when 1t
should have none.

1t is the cause of general remark and
of expressions of surprise that the Sentinel.
the leading Democratic paper in the State,
has not approved the efforts Of Governor
Matthews to enforce the laws and to pre-
vent The destruction of property. Instead
of approval. it's silence indicates a hostility.
This hostility was shown early In the
week by paragraphs designed to make the
militia under arms in the disturbed re-
gions the objects of ridicule. 1t was shown
in yesterdays paper by the publication of
kilograms. evidently furnished by the
sheriff of Sullivan county, who is largely
responsible for the magnitude of the out
break, in which he insults the Governor.
The Journal has yet to find a Democrat
who. is a business man who does not sus-
tain Governor Matthews. Therefore, If the
of hostility to Governor Matthews is meet
ing the approval of the best portion of its
party. it is mistaken. If the Sentinel has
concluded that its attitude toward the ex-
1SlAI6 WIN ID AitCA PtCtto =
be sympathetic, will add thousands to the
party vote in November. 1T has a poorer
opinion Of the average Democrat than has
the Journal. If the side-tracking of coal
trains, the burning of coal cars, the placing
of dynamite where it would have caused
destruction of life, and the stoning Of a
railway engineer to death are not offenses
to be suppressed by the official represent
ing the sovereignty of the State. then there
can be none and the Office should be abol-
ished, and all statutes pretending; to pro-
vide for the protection of life and property
should be repealed.
1t is given out in Democratic circles that
the present hostility of one of the editors
of the Sentinel to the Governor is because
he was not given an official position upon
which he had set his heart and that this
is the animus of the undisguised hostility
of that paper toward the executive In this
matter as we'll as In the Roby affair. This
seems incredible, but even such u motive
for the SentinePs attitude. even If incom-
parably petty, is better than to have it
understood that its hostile attitude is the
result of sympathy with the lawless and
their violence, or the fear that the
Governors policy will lose the party votes

to pay therefor IS. 10000. Under the terms
of the purchase this sum was to be paid
TO the Cherokees in annual installments
covering five years. but the Indians sub

which a material rebate was TO be made

THE COAL
Facts Which Contribute to n Better

There are some facts In connection with
the strike of the coal miners which. while

Inc general public and which, IL more wide

prehension of the situation.
Previous TO the strike some of the OPERA
tors made contracts to supply fixed quanti-
ties OF coal or the entire output of their
mines within a definite period without put
ung n strike clause in the agreements
and at prices which rarely repaid the cost
OF operating the mines. In some cases
agreements were actually made to sell
coal ar prices which lid not even give the
operator the small royalty TO which he
usually looks for his Lrofit above the cost
or labor. These agreements were based.
