DISCUSS THE FUTURE MARKET OF
HAWAIrS PRODUCT.
Contract With Western Refinery EX-
Contract is Said ia be Doubtful.

Since the arrival in the city of r. p.
Rithet of San Francisco and Victoria,
b. G.. and Colonel u. S. Spalding, there
have been several meetings of the
sugar agents in the city. A lengthy
session was held yesterday previous
to the departure of Colonel Spalding
on the Coptic, aud the sugar planters
were together again this morning in
p. c. Jones private office in the Ha-
waiian Safe Deposit building.
Mr.. Rithet was present at today's
meeting. The discussion was confined
solely to the future disposition of Ha-
waiian sugars. The contract with the
Western Refinery Company will expire
in December. Claus Spreckels con-
trolls this branch of the American Re
tinery and whether a renewal of the
contract can be made is doubtful be-
cause of Mr.. Spreckels' opposition to
Hawaiian sugars. There is no truth
in the rumor, however, that the Ha-
waiian planters had submitted prop
osition to the Western Refinery which
had been refused and that the Re-
finery had returned a contract which
was so one-sided that the Hawaiian
planters were obliged to turn it down.
The present sugar crop will be in
by the end of July. The contract
with the Western Refinery will not
close until the end of the year Be
sides having control of the Western
Refinery. which is branch, Mr.
Spreckels has a great deal to say in
the management of the American Re
| tinery.
The Hawaiian planters will have
their crops well in hand to ship direct
to San Francisco in case the treaty
should be interfered with. The sugar
shipped around the Horn to New
York would not reach the market il
tiN,e to escape the import duty levy.

De la Vergne this morning. He was
arrested for the same otfense in 1898,
