The Condition of the Cane Crop.
Picayune.

As the season is now approach
ing'when preparations for sugar.
making are in order, more thar
ordinary interest attaches to the
condition of the sugar crop. Most
mills commence grinding cane ear.
ly In October, but as it is known
that the crop will be short, and as
it has been somewhat backward
all season, it is probable that the
average date of beginning work
will be little later this year than
usual In the sugar belt.
Owing to the extensive damage
to seed cane last winter and the
still more extensive damage to
stubble, the tonnage of the cane
now maturing will be light. The
yield will be further reduced, as
far as the sugar results are con-
cerned, by the unusually large
amount of seed cane that will be
saved for nextseason's crop. There
is general determination among
the planters to plant very extern
sively next season, and in some
cases practically the whole of this
years yield will be kept for seed.
The weather recently has been
favorable to the rapid maturing of
the cane. Already there are indi-
cations of considerable sugar yield
for the tonnage to be handled, as
the cane is unusually sweet for
his early date. On many planta-
ions it is hoped that a much high
'r percentage of sugar per ton of
'ane ground will in a measure
for the light tonnage
# cane.
The weather during last week
vas probably cooler than could
lave been wished, as such wealth
r would naturally have a tenden-
y to check the growth of the cane,
Vhile. of course, improving it's
accharine strength. Some addi-
lonal growth to the cane could be
7ished in cases where light yield
ermits of a late start to grinding.
he weather has already modera-
ed, however, and it is to be ex-
ected that warmer temperature
ill still permit of additional
rowth. Speaking of the present
OF the cane crop, the
'ouisiana Planter says:
"The past week brought US some
unusually cool weather for the
liddle of September, which will
rSbably tend to hasten the matu-
ty and improve the sweetness of
le canes, while checking their
ongation. AS the indications
ere that they were apt to cut a
tile bit short for the mill any.
ay, it would have been prefera-
e to have them grow q little more
,fore ripening, but we may safe
count Oh plenty of hot weather
It in this latitude before the tenn
'rature gets permanently low.
he situation, as a whole, is very
'od, barring, of course, the small
reaQe of GOOD cane"

SHAMEFUL.

Colonel d. G.. shanks. Of the United
states Army. IS well known in Virginia
and particularly in Richmond. He
served for a long time as commandant of
cadets at Blacksburg and I'm that time
became quite one of our people. lie IS
now serving under General otis in the
pbiippines. lie has written a letter 70
the Rev. Dr. McByde, Of Blacksburg,
which DIR. McBryde has permitted to be
nublished. and it contains statements that
should receive the most serious attention
nj our government. We say this because,
from our knowledge Of the parties we
feel perfectly confident that Col. shanks
has written the letter and that he would
not have made the statements unless
they were true We quote from his let
ter as follows
",rhore IS no doubt Of the fact that al
most an OF the officers that came out
with the first expedition feel that We
have not dealt squarely with these poo-
ple. The naval officers share this opinion
quite as freely as the army BY implica-
Non and fair inference. IL not IN direct
words these people were given 20 un-
Aorstand that we were their allies in their
struggle with Spain. There is no doubt
tbat several thousand rifles and a large
quantity OF ammunition were issued TO
fbem from the arsenal at Cavte. An
officer told me not long ago that ne was
az Cavite when Dewey called on Aguinal-
Al an the quarters Of the latter; that the
troops we're turned out and made TO pre-
sent arms TO Agunaldo. while the band
sounded a general officers flourish in his
honor. A great many think, therefore,
mat these people had good grounds for
believing that our object was not 10 re-
Mace Spain as their masters. but was 20
nee them as our allies IN the war with
spain and in return to give them their
freedom.
AT any rate, there. IS no gainsaying the
Fact that they now regard us In much
more unfrlondly light than they ever re-
oarded Spain. / have no doubt that they
would vastly prefer 10 see the Spanish re-
urn rather than that the Americans
should remain. Tho individual relations
OF the American soldiers and the natives
have not been such as TO Impress the
latter with our purity OF motive or our
honesty as people.
"At first. when the American troops
were regarded as allies the natives trust
cd them implicitly. An officer told me
