A New Refinery To Start Up In
January In California.
WILL TAKE SOME ISLAND SUGAR
President Mckinley Said to Be
Anxious to Settle Hawaiian
Annexation.

The Chronicle of November 10 says:
Plans have been perfected and the as
surance is given that everything will
be in readiness for fighting the sugar
trust on January 1st, when the five
years contract of the Hawaiian plant
ers with the Western Sugar Refinery
will expire. It will continue to handle
that portion of the crop, say from 4O,-
600 to $4,000 tons, which Claus Spreck-
els can control. OF the remainder of
225, 900 tons, $50, 900 tons will be plac-
ed on the market by the California
Beet Sugar and Refining Company, in
which Welch & Co., George w. Nc
Near and their friends are the princi-
pal elements. OF the 10000 tons of
raw Island 10000 tons will be sent to
Now York, where it has already been
sold to refineries independent of the
trust. The remaining $4,000 tons will
be refined at the California Beet Sugar
and Refinery Company's works at
Crockett, on the Straits of Carquinez.
The factory will start up in Janu-
airy and February and run on cane SUI
gar until the sugar beet shall be ready.
The capacity of the new refinery is to
be $50 tons daily. The building is the
old Starr mills, to the upper story of
which an addition will be made. The
machinery will all be of American
manufacture, differing in that respect
from the machinery for the Spreckels
factory in Salinas. which has been
brought from Germany. Already 81
car loads for the Crockett establish
ment have arrived from Cleveland, O.,
and 20 more are to come, making a
total of 60 car loads of machinery.
Outside of the eight plantations con-
trolled by Theodore Davies & Co. and
Claus Spreckels, nearly all of the ISL
and sugar crop of the Hawaiian ISL
ands, including that of the Hawaiian
Commercial Company, of which c. A.
and Rudolph Spreckels are the prin-
cipal owners, will be handled and sold
antagonistic to the sugar trust. AL
ready IL vessels have been chartered to
go around the Horn, and arrangements
have been made with the railroad COM
panies for transportation of sugar
across the continent to New York.
The capital of the California Beet
Sugar and Refining Company is $780,
900, and employment will be given the
year around to $50 men at it's Crockett
factory. 1t is estimated that the
amount of beets required to supply the
capacity of the mill will be 1000 tons
daily for from 100 to 120 days in the
year.. To furnish this quantity will
require the planting of between 1000
and 5000 acres, averaging Is tons to
the acre. Contracts for this supply
are now being made with reasonable
success in spite of obstacles thrown in
the way Of the enterprise by the mem
bers and agents of the sugar trust.
Prices for sugar beets are based on 15
per cent. of saccharine mater at 81 a
ton net, delivered at the nearest rail-
road station or boat landing, the COM
pany paying the freight to the factory
For every full degree above Is per
cent 25 cents additional will be paid
and for every full degree below, down
| to 10 per cent 25 cents ton less will
ho mold

Red Mems Entertainment.

On account of the hour of going to
press, we were unable to give the Red
mems entertainment justice IN our last
issue. The program was rendered as
published upon that occasion, excepting
Mr.. Devine who disappointed the com
mittee. Robert Hodgins is a coined
ian of rare ability. He brought down
the house with his rendition of "Paddy
in London. Prof. Sears sang two So
los which were much appreciated.
Miss Lucy Roehl gave a piano solo
which with an instrumental duet, Miss
Rochl and Prof. Sears was highly en-
cored. The chorus of highschool girls
was one of tho most entertaining num-
bers. Mr.. Kempfer's recitation elected
applause, and the Grafton by Mr.. James
Gam capped a lofty climax. 1t was
the best thing on the program, and we
do the other performers nc injustice by
saying so. The supper was served i'm
mcdiately after the literary feast, and
everybody was in hearty accord with the
prevalent spirit of good feeling. The
Red Boys are all right, and don't you
forget it.

After Six Years OF SquabbIing, and a
Great Amount of Hard Feeling,
the Sheriff Figures in the Closing
SCENE.

tAAO S1UAA AA SAU 0AUSAAAE
Scene.
A long and weary legal contest over
real estate in the town Of Neihart o
ering six years in the courts and costing
several thousand dollars was ended this
week by the sheriff ordering off all the
defendants, and restoring the right of
possession to the plaintiffs. A history
OF the case will interest our readers.
In 1884 the Keegan lode mining
claim with surface ground was beld by
S. II. Sutton and ]. G. Wilson. 1t lies
in the heart of town, and covers some of
the most valuable real estate here. In
June of that year Sutton and Wilson
sold the claim to Isaac Mayer and A. G.
Wilson, who Immediately applied for a
government patent, securing the land
Office receipt that same fall. A tempo
rary squirt in real estate here sent prop
erty up i'll value and everybody was
looking for a place to build.
Mr.. Bird and wife by permission of
the owners erected a log cabin IN Mayer
and Wilson's ground, which %laterly, by
the death of Mr.. Bird and his wife's
subsequent marriage to J. NJ. Carothers
came to be known as the Carothers
house.
"Railroad", Jack in the same year
built the Schwerdt house by agreement,
that whenever the property should be
plated and placed upon the market, he
should have the right of first purchase
to the lot on which he built. The cab
in was afterward sold, coming into pos
! session of ]. j. Schwerdt and wife, they
having occupied it ever since,
Bird had in 'S3 built the small log cabin
now standing at the rear of Susie Cald-
wells house and in this place with a
tent attachment, was conducted the first
restaurant in Neihart. This cabin was
on the claim when Mayer & Wilson be-
came possessors of the ground. In 1885
or 'S6, in the absence of the owners from
town, and without their knowledge, Miss
Caldwell built the frame structure which
she now occupies.
Phil Burns, who had somewhat Of a
claim against the former owners of the
Keegan, whereby they had promised to
give him an interest in the same, built a
log cabin on the ground in 1884, where
he has ever since claimed possession.
In May of 1891, Mayer & Wilson TOOK
their claim to court, asking the right Of
possession. The case is parallel to the
famous Smoke House lode in Butte and
the decisions throughout have been tho
same. Carothers took the case to the
supreme court, but received adverse de.
~cisions throughout.
Deputy Sheriff Sires came in Tuesday
and in the name of the court ordered all
the above named contestants to vacatt
within "a hours. A grand scramble fol
houses followed and on Wednesday
Mayer & Wilson took possession of thei.
own. They sawed the Carothers cabi1
in two, leaving a small dorner of j
standing on other ground. They tori
down the Schwer1t house, giving mos
of the building material to Mr.
Schwerdt. They did not damage Mis-
Caldwell's house but gave her permiss
ion to move it elsewhere, which she vii
do. The two last named houses stood
several feet out into Main street.
