Expanding Sea Power.

The war ships which England
is building this year would make
respectable navy for any power
not ambitious to obtain the mas
terry of the sea, says the San Fran
cisco Chronicle. Compared with
the naval strength of the United
States this addition to the British
war marine is in the ratio of 10S
TO 80, with the difference that the
British vessels will be modern
while many of those on the Ame-
rican naval lists, including the
monitor fleet, are out of date.
Germany will also be crowded
far to the rear when the new ships
are put in commission, and
France and Russia combined will
find themselves, az naval powers,
completely outclassed.
This enormous expansion of
British sea power viii rot con-
duce to the success of the Kaiser's
efforts to persuade the Reichstag
to adopt competitive building
programme. The task of equal
ing the British navy as it was
proved too much for O country
which had, like France, long
start toward such an achievement.
With Germany there was no
chance of success except at an
enormous sacrifice, when the
Kaiser first preached his plan.
Since then the British Govern
ment bag added 25 per cent to it's
naval armament, to say nothing
of what it is now doing, a policy
which the German treasury, CON
sidering the fixed military charges
against it, has no means to rival
or combat. The English lead is
too great to be caught mp with
unless some extraordinary inno-
walton, like that made by steam
and armor plate, should compel
all maritime nations to provide
themselves with an entirely new
type of ships.

THE MERCANTILE AGENCY
COMMERCIAL REPORT FOR THE
FIRST HALF OF MARCH.
No Bankruptcies or Foreclosure
Building Very Active-Movemen,.
in Real Estate, etc.

The following items are CLEANED
from the semi-monthly circular
OF the Hawaiian Mercantile
Agency, issued yesterday:
Since the first of March, trade
has been considerably less brisk
than during February and sales
in nearly every house in town are
smaller in volume.
During the next fortnight the
spring trade will open and stocks
in the retail houses are being
added to more heavily than last
year. Good rains throughout the
Islands have been of material
benefit to the growing cane, es-
pecially in Kau, Hamakua and
Kohala, Hawaii. Sugar is frac.
ton higher and moderately firm;
coffee is no lower. Reports from
the coffee growing districts in
dictate fine showing this year.
Kona, Puma, Olaa and Hamakua
plantations are blossoming pro-
fusely with every likelihood of
considerable crop. Machinery is
being moved in and the larger
houses here, notably Hackfeld &
Co., are making preparations to
grade and clean the product.
No bankruptcies or foreclosures
since the first of the month.
The outcome of the present
question as to the right of Jap
anese to land here with but $4,000
of borrowed money in their
possession is being awaited by
the mercantile community with
much interest.
Following are the arrivals and
departures at the port of Homo
lulu since February Is:

A VOICE FROM THE BLEACHERs.

Local interest in the cricket games
as reflected from the "bleachers" is in
creasing. During Saturdays games
the "bleachers" were particularly vo-
ciferops and kept the players under a
running ire of good natured banter.
One small boy brought down the
crowd by advising the batsman to "go
buy case of Rainier Beer and get
some life in YOU" The crowd applaud
ed the remark, knowing that Rainier
Beer is celebrated for its invirorating
and strengthening propensities.

HAWAIIAN SUGAR.
A San FranciscO BuIierin's EDITORIAL
ON the Sabject.

A contemporary attributes the
neglect Of the beet-sugar industry
in this State to apprehension
that the product of Hawaiian cane
sugar will be so great that there
will be little profit in the cult
b ton of the beet. The appre-
vension is founded on remote pio-
liabilities. The United States i'm
ports in round numbers $780,
OO0,O of sngar year, of which
about one-twentieth comes from
Hawaii. The larger part comes
from beet-sugar countries, some of
which pay a bounty on exports
of sugar. If Hawaii should be
annextd it would doubtless in
crease its sugar output. Hawaiian
sugar will have an immense ad-
vantage over the product Of other
countries in our market. But
with nexaton Hawaii VIII be
required to accept the restrictions
the United States imposes upon
inm grafton. There would be few
advocates Of annexation with the
condition that Hawaii be allowed
to maintain an exceptions labor
standard. Under any possible Cir
cuiDstsnces many years vii! e!apse
before the United States will grow
all its own sugar. II duty
of II cent and half on the for
elgn product is maintained mean
tine, the culture of the beet should
be at least as profitable as any
other branch of agriculture.

general opinion on the city front
that the Castle will take the
honors.

BIO Grande Dam Case.

The ruling of the United States at
torney general in the Mesilla Valley,
Rio Grande, dam case does not appear
to be final, but rather partakes of the
nature of a preliminary injunction.
with rule to show cause why it should
not be made permanent. Judge a. B.
Fall, solicitor general of New Mexico,
and w. a. Hawkins, of Silver City,
attorneys for the Elephant Butte and
Selden Dam con, panY, are preparing
to present an array Of facts to the de-
partment of justice when the case is
called for hearing, com batting the con-
tentiOn of the war department that the
Rio Grande is q navigable stream as
far up as Ell Paso, and as such has been
recognized by congress. United States
Attorney w. b. Childers has received
Instructions from the department oil
justice on the subject, and says he will
procure an injunction if necessary tC
prevent work on the dams, pending a
full hearing by the attorney general.
