HAWAIIAN SUGAR.
CargOes to be Shipped from the
Islands Around the Horn.

Anticipating a short sugar crop
in Cuba on account of the revolu-
ton there, the sugar trust has con-
tracted for the delivery in Phila-
delphia and New York of large
quantities of Hawaiian raw sugars.
Eight large ships have been char
tered to load full cargoes at Homo
lulu for the Delaware Breakwater
for orders, for which they will re-
ceive 1913 per ton freight. The
crop of Hawaiian sugar for ship
ment is reported as unusually
large; and from present appear
ances much of it will be shipped
direct to the Atlantic coast. Claus
SpreckeIs is said to have acted for
the trust and to have secured OPP
tions on nearly the entire crop.

CLAUDINE NEARLY SUNK.
One of Her Port Holes Left Open
and Water Poured In.

The steamer Claudine came near
being sunk yesterday morning.
Some sugar had been discharged
from the forward port hole on the
starboard side and this had been
left open while the dock hands
were sent aft to discharge sugar
from the port side. This threw
the steamers bow forward and gave
her list to starboard. The port
hole was but a half foot from the
water line when discharging was
begun aft and it took but a short
while to reduce this so that the
water rushed in. Fortunately the
hands were alert and, showing the
Claudine away from the wharf,
succeeded in closing the port before
any great amount of water could
get in. 1t is thought but little
damage was done the sugar.

before that the Chinese and others
were so fond of samshu.
No, samshu is not the name of
any particular liquor. It is the
Chinese name for spirituous liquors
of all kinds. Many people, not
Chinese, frequently come here and
ask me for samshu. Now, such a
request is very confusing to me.
Now, then, I have wines, whisky
and gin of many Chinese brands
here. The gin is white, the whisky
yellowish, and the majority of the
wine red. You may be surprised
when l tell you that all Chinese
liquors are manufactured from rice,
but such is the case. Were it not
for rice there would be no China
men-not because liquor is made
from that cereal, but because its
uses in China are lnnumerable.
"The power of intoxication of
our liquor, 1 claim, to be above the
average, but, then, / would not
have this go abroad, as it might
have very bad effect, particularly
since everything in my store is SO
cheap. The highest priced article
in the house is only 81 so. l am
sorry cannot let you have a taste
of my Hongkong best, but it has
been rule with me never to open
a bottle as my good-heartedness
would soon get the better of me,
and, then-my wife. However, /
can put you on the track of some
one that has bought liquor here re-
Gently, and he might do something
for you.
"My customers? Well, that is
rather an embarrassing question,
for / do not like to give away the
weaknesses of my patrons. But [
will tell you that most of my
patronage comes from Chinese and
Hawaiians. White men are not
very far behind. Those who come
here once always return.
No; cannot give credit. Oh,
you do not want credit? Well, of
course, to my good customers I give
credit; but know the limit to which
L can safely go.
Gall my liquor comes from
Hongkong, to which place it is
brought from surrounding smaller
towns and cities.
"You remark upon the irregu-
larity in size of bottles. Well, you
see, most of the bottles used for
liquor are mixed ones shipped to
China from foreign ports. A large
cargo was sent away from here re-
Gently. These bottles are collected |
anywhere and everywhere. Chinese
are not particular what the samshu
is put in, so they get it.

CLASS IN CHILD-STUDY.
Plan of Work Arranged for Open
ing Tomorrow Afternoon.


ing Tomorrow Afternoon.
It was once the fashion to think
that if college girl married, she
wasted all she had gained from her
curriculum. At the present time
the belief prevails that the college
courses of today do not equip our
women with the technical knowl-
edge that should serve them in the
exacting demands of motherhood
and child culture. Therefore, edu-
Gators are now turning to the chill
dren themselves to learn how to
teach.
The class in child-study and
psychology has just re-organized
and will meet Wednesdays at 2:25
p. N. at the High school building.
A plan for work has been arrang-
ed. It was decided to send for
Milicent Shinn's "Notes on. the
Development of Child" to be
used as a text book and to digress
from as may seem wise. For to-
morrow the class will bring exam
pies of imitativenesss in children.
It is desirable that mothers should
take up this part of the course
which alternates weekly with psy-
chology. Both are free. There
will be only small expenditure
for books. Mrs. DR.. Andrews will
lead the child-study, and Mr..
Dumas the psychology, with
Krohn's text book.
Concerning the child-study of
last year, Professor Barnes, of Cali
fornia, has written approximately
of the work done here, the brunt
of which fell on Miss Brewer and a
few others.
It is hoped to welcome new faces
tomorrow and wish that these sub
jects may soon be as popular as
tennis.

Mercantile company met yesterday
morning, and decided to execute an as
signment of the entire concern to Wal
Ter B. Jordan, capitalist of Miles

Iriend of Mr. Kelly's. This action Was
taken In view of the fact that the con-
trolling interest in the COMPANY having
been assigned, it would be difficult and
Improbable tc conduct the entire busi-
ness on any other basis than that OF
an assignment. The deed of assign.
ment was filed yesterday afternoon.
put considerable time will elapse be-
fore the schedule of assets and Iiabili-
ties can be prepared. Ten days is the
legal allowance for preparing the
schedules. At least a week will elapse
before the exact figures can be ascer-
tanned.
"The entire solvency Of the firm.
however" said Mr.. Jordan last night,
cannot be doubted. The same can
be said of Mr.. Kelly's private estate.
1t Will liquidate very handsomely
There would never have been any
thought of an assignment, if Mr.. Kelly
nad not become convinced, Saturday
that his recovery was very doubtful
He realized that his interests were
scattered, that a good part of his prop,
erty was real estate, and If his estate
ever got in the hands of the probate

eral years before a settlement could
be reached. He didn't want his heirs
and creditors to go through a repeti-
ton Of the Kittson estate settlement,
He knew that the slow course of pro-
bate court proceedings would entail
large legal expenses, and materially
diminish the value Of his assets. He
was particularly anxious, after a long
and honorable business career, that
his creditors should be paid in full, and
quickly at that, and he wanted to be
assured that his family could be amply
provided for. He discussed the matter
with his brother and a few advisers,
and concluded a prompt assignment
sides, his anxiety would be thus ended,
and he would stand a better show of
fighting his disease. Had he continued
in good health he would never have
assigned in the world. I shall act as
promptly as possible, and see to it that
my assigneeship comes quickly to an
end. I think 1T very likely that the
business will begin again as soon as
am discharged"
The estimates made by different per-
sonal friends, who are presumed to
know the condition of Mr.. Kelly's af-
fairs, place the net value of his estate
at from 100000 to $200,000. John
Meagher, the assignee of the estate, has
returned to his home in Mankato. He
also will be unable for some days to
make a definite statement Of the condi-
ton Of his trust.

NORTHERN PACIFIC REORGANIZA-
TION.

The plan of reorganization for the
Northern Pacific company, which has
been announced by the financial agen-
cies that have had it under contempla-
tion for months past, follows the Gus
tomary scheme of setting great railroad
properties on their feet again, 1t is,
however, rather simpler, and therefore
will commend itself more to security
holders than is usual. The new securi-
ties include only four varieties. There
are to be prior lien bonds to the amount
of $130,000,000, general lien bonds for
$6O,OO0,OOO preferred stock Of $75, 900, 900,
and common stock of $50, 900, 900. The
grand total of the obligations under
the new organization will thus approx
innate $3.50, 100000. The general public
is not interested in the complex ar
rangement made for the exchange of
old securities for new, and for the re-
tirement of the different classes of
stock and bonds as the company's in
come may enable it to scale down it's
obligations.
1t is an enormous burden for even so
great a property to carry, and it would
seem to have been preferable in this
as in all other cases to reduce the to-
tai, if possible, by the cancellation of
a considerable share of outstanding
debt. This is generally made impos-
cih hXy af csfn
bond holders to relinquish any part of
their nominal claims, although they
may know that these will never be sat
isfied in full. Of course, it is immaterial
to the stock or bond holder whether he
receives 2 per cent on a claim of SIS or
L per cent on a claim of SO. But in
order to bring into the agreement all
those whose consent is necessary to
a reorganization, and to obtain a work
ing capital for future operations, most
of the railway reorganizations in this
country have perpetuated the bad sys-
tenn of overlooking the new companies
with the same excess of debt that
brought disaster to the old.
In the case of the Northern Pacific,
its earning powers have already been
demonstrated to be such as ought to
carry through without failure the re-
adjustment Of it's various forms of
debt. A syndicate with a working cap
ital of $45,O00,00O has been formed to
carry on the new arrangement and to
provide for necessary betterments. The
great increase in railroad business in
the Northwest that has already begun,
with the progress of the immigration
movement, and the large volume Of
additional business that is sure to fol-
low the increase of population and of
production from this time forth open
a brighter future than ever to all rail-
way properties in this section. Every
one interested in the prosperity of the
Northwest will welcome the prospect
of a settlement of the Northern Pa
cific's difficulties, and will join in the
hope that it may be able to develop,
on the new basis, into one of the sound
est and best-paying properties in the
country.

The people of Kentucky, who have
had their first taste Of Republican
rule in many long years, are likely to
find that enough to satisfy their ap-
petite for all time to come. The situa-
tion at the capitol of that state, which
has been exciting yer since the leg
islature assembled. has now become
disgrace to the commonwealth and a
reproach to civilized government At
every step of the proceedings, which
have ended in a condition of public up
roar that stops little short of mob vio-
lence, the Republican party has been
the assailant, and the provoking cause
of the dangerous turmoil. The Re-
publicans elected their governor and
sixty-eight members of the state legis-
lature. The Democrats elected, also,
siXty-eight members of the state leg
islature, and the Populists two. 1t was
apparent from the outset that there
would be no election of a United States
senator unless the candidate of one or
the other of the great parties could Sc
cure the votes of the Populists. To
this end the Republicans had labored
first by chicane, and later by an open
resort to the most shameless and des-

EVERY INCH A DEMOCRAT.

While the report which comes from
that Secretary Carlisle will be an act
i've candidate for the presidential NOM
ination, and that he will have such
support as the good will of the admins
tration can win for him, Is premature
and may not be authentic, It is inter-
esting as a possibility. AS to its COM
panion rumor, that Mr.. Cleveland has
never had any idea of a third term,
and that he will shortly make public
announcement of the fact, few who
know him have ever doubted. He has
been actuated throughout his entire
public service by disinterested motives,
not by personal ambition. Few presi-
dents of the republic have been called
upon to face such tremendous duties or
have performed them with such cour-
age and carelessness Of self. It may
we'll be believed that the end of his
term will come to him as a glad re-
lief.
AS to Mr.. Carlisle, he is a man to
whom the Democratic heart warns in
stinctively. He has never been false
to his colors, or equivocated while sup
porting the cause of Democracy. He
has shared with his chief the great
burdens which the reckless and ruinous
financial policy of the Republicans
when in power imposed upon this ad-
ministration. Filling a post of great
difficulty and responsibility he has dis
charged its duties bravely and intelli-
gently. He represents a financial pol
icy that is in harmony with the views
of all the great leaders Of the Demo-
cratic party, and that is not to be laid
aside now. Take him all around, and
| he is every inch a Democrat Stead
fast to party, devoted to the people, be-
yond the reach of sordid influences and
possessed of the courage that enables
him to face any emergency without
f1inching, he is a leader Of whom the
party and the country might we'll be
proud Secretary Carlisle may not be
nominated and he may not care for the
nomination.; but the Democracy would
make no mistake in choosing him for a
candidate.
