Cleveland. Ohio, May 20.-One hun
dred and twenty-five lumber showers
went to the cleveland Saw Mil and
Lumber Company's dock this morning
armed with clubs and stones to prevent
the lumber steamer LoJtysburg from
being unloaded by non-union men.
Their leaders failed TO make terms with
the captain OF the vessel, who told them
he had arranged to have the boat un-
loaded by another gang Of men at less
than scale prices.
The union men congregated at the
dock early this morning prepared TO
drive OF the non-unionists. Frank
Wentz. an employe of the mill, was mis-
taken Tor O. non-union man, and was
vigorously attacked and unmercitul!y
dubbed. lie was removed to a hospl-

the police arrived the mob disappeared.
Later the union men Unloaded the boat

tion, but is placed on 80 that it is fed
between the rollers in an even thick
ness. If too much cane were placed
on one side and too little on the other
the expensive, all-important rollers
might be broken because of the uneven
pressure.
The wagons follow each other rap
idly, and while one gang of women is
attending to the carrier another gang
is cording up the surplus cane for the
night shift. ....
The roller mill is q ponderous piece
of machinery, massive in all of its
parts, for sugarcane has tough, hard
skin and cannot be crushed by tender
methods. Two mills, one of three and
the other of two rollers, constitute the
five-roller system, and nine rollers are
used III some mills. The cane, carried
to the first mill on the conveyor, first
passes between three rollers, two OF
them over one. As soon as the sugar
cane is crushed or ground by this mill
it becomes "bsgasse," and, by another
horizontal conveyor, is taken to the
mill which has two rollers, one over
the other, where it is squeezed again.
The ''bagasse" is now almost dry and
is carried to the boiler-room, where it
is used as fuel under the boilers. II
is also used as fertilizer.
When the cane and bagasse are

centrifugal force flies through the per-
forations, leaving the sugar dry and
snow white. The sugar is then dumped
to the granulator and placed in bar
rels.
This sugar, although of higher
grade than the sugar made by the
open kettle process, is not as large
grained nor as glazed as the sugar
made in the refneries. Here the crude
sugar is made into sirup, again
strained through bone black filters,
bleached, reclarifed, put through,
vacuum pans, granulators and CEN
tifugals, until the grain is large and
the crystals well formed and glazed.

BOILING THE CANE JUICE.

crushed thejuice runs down, greenish,
sticky liquid, through strainer to q
well or vat, from which it is pumped
to the CHARTERS. Here milk of lime is
stirred in and heat is applied. The
lime neutrslizes the acids in the juice,
for the moment the cane is cut a
chemical change begins in the juice,
part of it fermenting and becoming
acid. The thick scum which rises
when the lime is stirred into the juice
is removed and the clarified Juice is
drawn off into the first kettle, where
the old method of making sugar is
used. On come plantations the juice
is bleached by fumes of burning sui
phur before it is taken to the "bat-
terry" This is done in an open box,
in which the juice drips through the
sulphurous fumes.
The large open kettles, four or five
of them, in which the juice is boiled
to sirup and then to sugar, stand in
row close to one another. In the
first kettle the juice is boiled to GER
tain density, which is determined by q
glass affair that looks like large
bulbed thermometer, called sacchra-
meter. This is placed in the liquid
and floats in a perpendicular position.
The more sugar there is in the liquid
the higher above the level of the
liquid the tube will rise. The tube is
divided into degrees so that the sugar

meter in the juice can tell when it has
reached the proper density or thick.
ness. ejuice is constantly skinned
of the impurities which rise to the top
in the form of scum, and this scum is
frequently made into rum. The juice
becomes sirup in the second kettle,
and as it grows thicker and thicker 1t
is transferred from one kettle to the
other, the workmen dipping it out in
long handled buckets. The last kettle
is called the "stribe pan," and here
the sirup is cooked until the man at
tending it, by pinching some of the
thick, clear sirup between his thumb
and finger, can draw the sirup out in
a candied string, which is exactly the
test that is used at candy pulling
party. When the grain is felt and the
sacchrameter shows that the proper
density has been reached the heavy
sirup is bsiled out into cooling watts
made of wood. As the sirup cools the
sugar crystallizes, but it is mixed with
the molasses which will not crystallize,
so it Is scooped out of the cooling vat
into large hogsheads made of cypress
wood, which have large number of
holes bored in the bottom. Pieces of
sugarcane plug these holes loosely,
allowing the molasses to drip down

pheric weight on the liquid the heat
causes the liquid to boil furiously,I
with great jets shooting above the
turbulent surface, as though q tres
mendous agitation were going on, yet
the heat is nearly 100 degrees below
boiling point. By using the vacuum
pan the sugar maker avoids burning
any sugar in the sirup and thus keeps
his sirup from becoming brown. In
this curious inclosed airless kettle the
sirup is boiled down under slight
heat until Capitalization is effected,
rand then the valve at the bottom is
opened and the whole charge is
dumped into the mixer directly be-
meath the vacuum pan. e. p

ment in which an agitator revolyes--a

made in this way is not pure white and
it is soft grained, but it is taken to

This is the old method, rapidly
passing out of use, for, compared to
the modern way of making sugar, it
is expensive and wasteful. Its one
redeeming feature is its picturesque
ness. But the hard-headed, cold

who have gone to Louisiana and built

progressive, scientific and modern,
