BIG DEMAND FOR SEED.
Farmers In Many states Going to
Raise Beet Sugar.

Farmers in Many states Going to
Raise Beet Sugar.
WASHINGTON, April 20-The Ag-
ricultural Department is being impor-
tuned from all parts of the country for
beet sugar seed. In view of the unsat-
isfactory prices received for staple
crops during the past few years, and
the prospective increase in the duty
on sugar, farmers in all sections of the
union evidently intend to experiment
with beet sugar culture. Heretofore
beet sugar growing has been confined
almost exclusively to Nebraska, Kan
sas and California.
The Agricultural Department has
sent beet seeds this spring to about 80
States and Territories. The demand
comes from Ohio, Indiana, Illinois.
Michigan, the Dakotas, Texas, New
Mexico, Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin.
Minnesota, Tennessee, Kentucky and
Virginia. There have also been re-
quests from Pennsylvania and New
York. A Nebraska sugar refining COM
pany donated five tons additional The
supply is about exhausted, but the de-
mand continues. If successful, the in
dustry probably will be developed in
many of the States in which expert
ments are made this year, supplanting
corn and wheat.

to see. In the United States it is the
trust, not the people, who oppose it.
and in order that the farmers may be
brought over to the side of the trusts.
the latter are now investing in sugar
beet property. Does any one suppose
that their interest in beet lands will
continue after the settlement of the
treaty? l hope not. To me, it seems
like bluff, and 1 think the farmers
will see it before the bill is passed.
The California merchants should favor
the treaty, on account of the trade
they secure from the Islands, and so
should manufacturers all over the
United States. There is not a merchant
in Honolulu who does not order from
all parts of the country, and the pro-
ducers over there should realize that if
our revenue is reduced through the
Senators of the United States killing
our chef industry. then their business.
as well as ours will be affected. Some
of the merchants here have written to
those from whom they buy their goods
to use what influence they have with
their representatives in Congress to
do what they can for the treaty. My
trade in stoves is large, but if the
treaty is lost I realize very well that
it will drop half, and my trade with
the Jewel stove people in Detroit will
suffer to the same amount. On March
18th 1 sent them this letter:
Honolulu, March Is, 1897.

WASHINGTON, April 26.-Phillippe
Edouard Marsan, a Frenchman just
arrived from the Island of Tahiti, in
the South Seas, reports to Washing
ton officials that the insurrection of
seven weeks ago was only quelled by
the arrival of French war vessel and
a British gunboat. The malcontents of
the island, who complain OF the taxes
levied by the French Republic, have
formed a confederacy with disrepu-
table refugee class known as beach
combers;" and this last party is the
disturbing element that is constantly
advocating a change of government.
The insurrectionists want either au-
tonomy or annexation to the United
States. They believe that the island
would be strategic point for the

WASHINGTON. April SO.-News from
Yokohama and Honolulu about Japan's
attitude regarding Hawaii has not caused
alarm to this Government, although it
is admitted matters may become seri-
Gus through the state of feeling in Jap
an. Nothing was said on the subject at
the Cabinet meeting today, and careful
inquiry indicated no action had been
taken by either the Secretary of State or
Navy looking to the better protection of
American interests in the Islands.
Nothing has been heard by the State
Department from Japan as to the views
and attitude of the United States toward
Hawaii as indicated by sending the
cruiser Philadelphia to Honolulu after
permission to land had been refused Jap
anese immigrants.
This Government believes there is no
crisis and depends on the friendly feel
ings of the Japanese to bring about
peaceful settlement of the-present diff
fculty. Secretary Long said tonight the
assignment of the Philadelphia was made
because the President recognized that
the Hawaiian question was liable to at
tract the serious attention of the United
States in the event of trouble at Homo
lulu and in view of the importance of
peace in the Islands to the American
residents and their interests it was deem
ed advisable to send first-class ship
there in addition to the Marion, now on
that station. These two ships, Long said,
will be retained at the Islands indefi-
nitely, but if found necessary to recall
either for repairs the Baltimore will be
sent out at once, in order to give the
United States two ships at Honolulu at
all times. Long does not believe a ne
ceSsity will arise to dispatch other YES
sells from Mare Island, but if it does,
he says there are several which can be
drawn upon at short notice.

reports that negotiations had been
opened between Toxic and Washing
ton relating to Hawaii. The Japanese
Foreign Office has gazetted the promo
ton of the present Japanese Consul
General at Hawaii to the rank of Min
lister Resident. This gives him larger
authority in dealing with diplomatic
affairs between Japan and Hawaii, and
the Legation here has no further jur-
isdiction on the subject, except as it
nay fec the relations of the United
States and Japan.

81 do not own or control single

terday, ''but l realize the value of the
reciprocity treaty, and the Importance
to us of having it continued.
Some people are narrow-minded
enough to think that the benefit of
the treaty has been only to the people
interested in sugar, and, doing SO, they
harbor in their brain pans the most
foolish of thoughts If the industries
of the Islands were diversified, such
opinions would be allowable, but
while sugar is our chief industry, feed
ing the arteries of all other lines of
business, we must nourish that which
keeps life in the country.

A GREAT SINGERS ROMANCE.

That is a pretty little romance told by
the life of Christine Nilsson, the once
celebrated singer. In childhood she wan
dered, a poor, barefooted little girl, on
tne swedish Mills; Future greatness was
widest dreams. 1t was by accident that
her wonderful talent was discovered and
that she was given the opportunity to
the greatest songstresses the world has
ever known, and later in life return to
her native land as the wife of the Span
ish Ambassador to Sweden-Count de la
Miranda. Such romances are often told
in stories, but they occur but rarely in
real life.

NEW YORK, April 3O.-The Worlds
special from Washington says: The
terms of peace which Turkey has Of
fered Greece reached the Washington Le-
cation today. They are as follows:
Restoration of the boundary fixed by
the treaty of 1881, which gave to Tur-
key all of Thessaly, including its extern
sive seacoast; evacuation by Greece of
Prevesa and other points in the prov
ince of Epirus; withdrawal of Greek
troops from Crete, and the acceptance
of the plan of autonomy offered the
island by the Porte; payment of a war
indemnity large enough TO cover the ex-
pense of mobilizing the Turkish troops.
The Porte's contention that, in view
of recent victories, Turkey is entitled to
claim the boundary of the treaty of 1881,
in addition to a war indemnity, is re-
jected by the powers. The ambassadors
have plainly Given notice that Turkey
cannot extend her territory at the ex-
pense of a Christian nation.

the reports of a hostile feeling against

by the arrival of the ship Philadelphia
at Honolulu.
Z The japanese say that their country is
very friendly to us, and that they can

that Japan is very well satisfied with
things as they are, and after the vic

could have started the stories unless it
