SUGAR BEETs IN RUSSIA.
Over Eight Hundred Thousand Acres
Under Cultivation.


Over Eight Hundred Thousand Acres
Under Cultivation.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-Accord-
ing to the information furnished by
the Russian sugar manufacturers
on November Ist last and transmit
ted to the State Department by
United States Consul General Karel
at St. Petersburg, the area of land
in Russia under beet cultivation in
1895 amounted to 8I4,4I9 acres or
29,855 acres more than in 1894.
The quantity of sugar is estimated
at 7I7,55S tons, which would be an
increase of 1867 tons over last
years crop. The Consul General,
however, points out that these es'
Inmates are founded on the most
favorable conditions, which may
not be realized. The prices o.
sugar have risen abroad, causing ar
increased demand for Russian
sugar.
The United States sugar trust /.
said to have taken 100, 900 bag.
from Hamburg, considerably. de
creasing the stock there, and othel
elements of the increase are the in
tention of Germany to raise tn,
bounty, and the existing raw
weather which impedes the manu-
facture Of sugar. The purchase,
by the United States sugar trust il
taken as an indication that thei
stock accumulated before the pas
sage Of the Wilson bill has been ex
hausted, and further cause for in
creased prices is the doubt existin,
as to whether Cuba can be relic,
upon to export any sugar this year

This morning the police drove
the Chinese vegetable hawkers,
who block up Maunakea street,
from that quarter. They were told
to go to the market where there was
plenty Of room. This the Celestials
did, but were surprised on arriving
there to find that they had to rent
stalls. AS peddling Of vegetables is
allowed they will do this until the
stalls are again upen for rent.

SALE OF FRESH FISH.
AN EFFORT TO ESTABLISH STALLS
AT VARIOUS CITY POINTS.
Quite a Debate on the subject Decision
Deferred = Various Reports
Made.

The Board of Health met in re-
gular session Wednesday afternoon,
President Smith presiding. Min
utes Of last meeting were read and
approved. DR.. Monsarrat's report
was read and filed.
DIR. Monsarrat, who was present,
reported that there was no unusual
disease among swine. During the
late rainy season many hogs had
died of lung diseases. The report
of an epidemic among swine in the
country was, he thought, unfounded.
President Smith urged that inspec-
tors Immediately investigate any
suspicion Of impure meat or disease
in slaughtered animals.
DR.. Wayson offered some prac-
teal suggestions with regard to the
removal Of garbage. He suggested
ia number Of routes, with stipulated
hours for making them, thus insur-
ing careful work.
Various sanitary matters passed
at last meeting had been properly
attended to by the secretary. The
Committee on Cemeteries had done
no work and had no report.
Mr.. Keliipios ish report for the
week ending January 20 was read.
With only two stalls i'll operation,
30, o36 fish had been sold.
A petition from ]. +. Colburn for
permission to sell fresh fish in a
shop on either side of Maunakea
street was read. President Smith
thought to grant the request was to
establish bad precedent. II
meant that there would ultimately
be an innumerable number Of fresh
fish shops all over town. There
was lots of room at the market,
where the sale could be regulated
by the Board.
DR.. Emerson wondered If an cpl.
demic was expected from the free
sale of fish.
Mr.. Smith: ut has already beer
decided that fish for the public
should first be carefully inspected.
DR.. Emerson said that peddlinf
uninspected fish and selling then
in stalls, about town, were differen
matters. 1t was possible to inspec
fish sold either way, but it hac
never been proved that case of i'll
ness in this coutry had ever beef
caused by fish.
Mr.. Smith remarked that only
few. days ago the Minister of For
eign Affairs was taken violently il
after eating fresh fish. He doubte'
not, that there was danger at al
times.
DR.. Emerson asked what the dit
ference was between peddling fsl
and peddling meat. Mr.. Smith re
piled that the former was eaten raw
by Hawaiians while the latter wa
cooked. This made great differ
ence.
Mr.. Waterhouse said tainted fisl
were eaten by residents Of the val
leys. They would, when fish wer
cheap, take home large quantities
After being kept more than twenty
four hours, they were dried in thes
country houses.
DIR. Emerson moved to defer tn
request of Mr.. Colburn until mex
meeting, as he wished more time t
> think over it than one meetin
allowed,
. Letters from Mr.. Meyers wer
read. He favored the idea Of none
, prizes for tree planting at the settle
! ment.
t At 4 o'clock the Board went int
executive session to consider tn
l matter of annual reports, etc., upo
which free discussion was desired.

[Hilo Tribune.l
On Monday evening mass meet
ing of the people of Hilo and sur
rounding country was held in the
Court House to formulate plans and
perfect arrangements for a suitable
reception of the President and his
party when he should arrive. Com
mittees were duly appointed to at

the President at the Volcano House
aud escort him to the city. They ar
rived Thursday evening and the

was to be while in Hilo. During
the evening and Friday the Presi-
dent received calls from the citizens

try. Friday the reception was given

All point one way, and that is
towards the fact that nearly, IL not

STOCK SUIT.

More of the sprcckeis Quarrel and Pa
auhau shares.
Rudolph Spreckels. by his Attor-
ney p. L. Wooster of San Fran
cisco, has begun civil suit in the
Circuit Court against Walter M.
Giffard, agent of w. G. Irwin &
Co., to restrain him from cancel
ling and reissuing certain Paauhau
stock. The case is, in a measure,
connected with the suit brought by
the Spreckels' boys against Claus
Spreckels in San Francisco in
which 5000 shares of the same
stock figures.
The complaint states that Mr..
Giffard owned 5000 shares of Pau
hau stock. He sent $500 shares
to Allen & Lewis of Portland and
delivered the same, endorsed in
blank, on Jan. 9. Allen & Lewis
straightaway deposited the stock
with the Nevada Bank of San Fran
cisco, with instructions to take such
proceedings as would insure their
protection.
They said to the Nevada Bank
that they did not desire new
certificates unless the same
were absolutely necessary to their
protection i'll the premises
that they were willing to give notice
of the transfer of stock to the Off
GERS of the company If that also
was necessary. But if their inter
ests could be protected by simply
having the stock tranferred, to sur
render the shares and have new
certificates issued. Mr.. Spreckel:
adds that he believes the stock wa:
sent by the Nevada Bank to Spree
kels Bank here, and is now in the
hands of Mr.. Giffard, who repre-
sents the bank interests and also
those of the Paauhau Sugar Com
pany.
What he requires is the proper
entry of the transfer of stock tc
Allen & Lewis be made in thu
corporations books; that Mr.. Gif
fard do not cancel the certificates
believed to be now in his hands fol
that purpose, and do not issue new
ones. Mr.. Spreckels tells the cour
that there is great danger of hi
suffering irreparable loss if sucl
orders are not given. Mr.. Giffart

OF CENTRAL UNION.
REPORTS FROM OFFICERS READ AT
ANNUAL MEETING.
Records OF 1905 - Pastor Encouraged
Steady Growth of the Sabbath
School.

The annual meeting of Central
Union Church was held Wednes-
day evening. Rev. BRINE made a
report Of his work since arriving in
Honolulu and spoke encouragingly
of the prospects for the future. The
next report was that Of J. B. Ather-
ton, treasurer of the Board of Trus-
tees. showing receipts and expendi-
lures for the year. Mr.. Robinson
filed his report as church treasurer
and w. w. Hall as clerk.
Other reports were by w. J, For
bes, treasurer of the Sabbath
School; w. +. Thrum, librarian;
f. w. Damon on the Chinese mis-
sion and A. b, Wood, superintend-
ent of the Sunday School. The
latter was quite interesting. 1t
said; Although the year 1895 has
been a trying one in many respects
for the Sabbath School, as we'll as
for other departments Of church
work, yet we have reason to be very
thankful for the work that has been
accomplished, and we wish to ex-
press our gratitude to our Heavenly
Father for the opportunities and
bles sings of the year.
For five Sabbaths during the
year we had no school-Jan. IS, on
account of martial law, and the
first four Sabbaths Of September on
account of the cholera. Aside from
the reduced number during the
Summer, the attendance has been
very creditable, the average for the
year being 400. The highest at
tendance was on Dec. 8, with $50
present, and the lowest on Nov. II,
when the downpour OF rain reduced
the number to 1870. On I6 Sab
baths there were 500 or more pres
sent, while there were only &c
Sabbaths with less than 400.
Zone who is not we'll acquainted
with the work may well wonder
what is done with this small army,
and under whose instruction il
comes. 1t is pleasing to note that
out of SO officers and teachers, there
has been an average attendance o
10, and there has been earnest ant
telling work. We already find ou
quarters too small, and we may sooi
have 10 ask for the erection of al
annex to the church"
The paper closed with descrip
ton of the personnel of the school
and an earnest appeal for create
efforts during the new year.
All of these reports have beef
packed away by the church clerl
and will be published later il
pamphlet form. A second meetin,
will be held next Wednesday even
ing when reports from the othe
departments will be read.
