SUGAR CANE PAPER
An Important Experiment to be Begun
 in Louisiana

New Orleans Special to New York Sun.
 The announcement is officially made that Governor Warmoth is building paper mill as an annex to his sugar house on Magno- lia plantation, about thirty miles south of New Orleans. The mill will utilize the cane after the sugar has been extracted from it. It has long been recognized that the dry cane called baggasse in Louisiana, is an even better material for the manufac- ture of paper than wood pulp. being in condition to be converted into paper as 1t leaves the mills and at small cost
 What to do with the baggasse has been one of the problems of the Louisiana plant CT from the earliest times. There are be- tween three and five million tons of 1t turn ed out by the mills every year. It Is bulky and hard to get rid of. The law prohibits dumping 1t into the streams. The owners of the old sugar houses constructed at con- siderable expense immense baggassee chim- neys, into which the dry canes were drop ped and then destroyed by fire by forced draft. It was a complete loss, and the planter, instead of making anything by the baggasse, actually paid to get rid of it. Afterward a process was invented by which the baggasse could be used as fuel. Many of the plantations now get a consid- erable portion of their fuel in this way but 1t is not the best of fuel, and then 1t IS
The age-herald., 1899-10-08

recognized that the burning of the bag by-product.
 gasse was as good material for the manu- was talk of erecting one or more paper that, with the improved processes required in the manufacture of sugar, the Loulsi- ana planter has just as much on his hands as his capital and his labor will allow him to attend to. He could make a good thing if he added a rum dstillery to his sugar house and used the low-grade molasses, which he now throws away, in the manu- facture of rum, and his baggasse would pay well if converted into paper instead of used for fuel, but he cannot run planta- ton sugar refinery, dstillery and paper mill at the same time.
 Governor Warmoth believes that the time has come when a paper mill, as an annex to sugar factory, will prove profitable, and he will try 1t. He Is in a position to try it on more satisfactory terms than the other planters, because his Magnolia plan tation has one of the -four diffusion plants in Louisiana, the other three being at Ba- ton Rouge and in Ascension and St. Mary parishes. The chips which come from the diffusion battery after the sugar has been extracted from them are naturally In bet ter condition to be manufactured into pa per than the crushed cane which comes from the other sugar mills, and, if the sugar cane paper industry proves success ful anywhere, 1t will be upon the Warmoth place.

THE REVOLVING CRIMES. OF
 THE CHINESE HIGHBINDERS

been entered upon the books at police head quarters.
 A few months ago the highbinders re- ceved a scare that for time had a ten dency to keep them pretty thoroughly un- der cover. This was due to the fact that so many complaints had been lodged with the officials of the Chinese government in this country that the powers in China had determined to take cognizance of the sub- ject. The Chinese officials recognized the fact that the local police were seriously handicapped in their efforts to deal with these secret criminals and so Wu Ting Fang, the minister to Washington announce ed his willingness to negotiate an extradi- ton treaty applicable to all criminals but intended particularly to apply to the high binders.
 This proposal spread terror in the ranks of the society for the minister has stated that the Chinese government would be will ing to asume the burden of the detection and punishment of the criminals if the nec- essary treaty should be adopted. This meant that special officers would be ap- pointed and that 1t would be their sole duty to discover and run to earth every member of the criminal association and these men when taken back to China would be dealt with in short order.
 While in many respects the proposal seemed a wise one the United States au- thorites were afraid that serious evils
