Deeds More Property to the STAN
ford University

SAN FRANCISCO, June 15.-Refore
leaving for Europe Mrs. Jane Stan
ford prepared two deeds which were
placed ON record to-day conveying val
liable real estate to Stanford Univer-
sity. The property consists of LOO
acres in Lassen County and 16O acres
in Tehama County. All of this land
was recently purchased by Mrs Stan
ford to secure valuable water rights
and grazing land for big fiocks of sheep
owned by her. and which are to be
transferred to the Vina ranch, now
owned by the University. All this is in
addition to her recent endowment of
over $11 100000.
By this latest gift Mrs. Stanford has
transferred all her realty to the Uni
versity save a house and lot in Sacra-
mento, the residence of the Senator and
his family in early days, and particu-
larly at the outset of his career as a
railway magnate. She will eventually
give that property also.
Mrs. Stanford is now on her way to
Europe for three months tour. While
away, it is said, she contemplates in

INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION.
HELD A SESSION ONLY IN THE
AFTERNOON.
But One Witness Examined, J. N.
Javie, Manager of Arbuck1e
Sugar Refneries.

WASHINGTON, June 15.-The In
dustrial Commission held only an aft
ernoon session. and heard but one wit
mess to-day, ]. N. Jarvie of the firm
'suf Arbuckle and Brothers, manager
of the sugar refining business Mr.
Jarvie's testimony was brief He was
easy and courteous in his attitude to-
ward his inquisitors, refusing to an
swer only one question, viz: How much
it cost his company to refine sugar.
He said he did not wish to give in
formation of that sort to his business
competitors.
Mr.. Jarvie put the necessary margin
between raw and refined sugar at be-
tween 80 and 80 points, to allow a
profit on the business. He said that
when his firm started business in 1898
this margin was about 80. 1t had drop
ped as low as 30. and was now about
so. His firm, he said, had never cut
the price of sugar except to meet the
rates of the American Sugar Refining
Company, commonly known as the
sugar trust.
When asked if the Arbucklese would
continue to meet their rivals figures.
he replied decisively that his firm was
in the refining business to stay, beyond
that he would not wish to say.
He explained the entrance of the Ar
buckles into the sugar field by saying
that in 1898 they secured a machine
for weighing and packing sugar, and
undertook to sell package sugar to the
wholesale trade They bought from
the American Refining Company, but
found they could make no profit in that
way, and so started their own refinery.
He said the tariff differential of one
eighth of cent a pond ON refined su-
gar did not figure in the business just
now Domestic competition was so
sharp as to keep out all foreign sugar.
Asked if the removal of the one-efghth
CT a oent would; affect the business now,
he said he did not know enough about
the foreign trade to say.
Mr. Jarvie said there had been many
overtures from the sugar trust to set
tie the differentials with the Arbuckles.
but they had all been made "for stock
jobbing purposes and consequently
there had been nothing in them.
Witness. in speaking of the coffee
business, in which the American Sugar
Refinery invaded the Arbuclzle field.
said that while there had been a decline
in prices, it would not be fair to lay it
all to competition, as there had been a
great increase in coffee production all
over the world, last years crop going
from 11.OOo,GOO to 15,O0000o bags
Asked if he could suggest any plan
that would lessen the present destruc-
tive competition in the sugar business,
witness said that the fight could stop
only when the one big concern decided
to be content with less than 100 per
cent of all the business in the country.
When asked how long the rival COM
pany could keep ON selling sugar at a
loss. Mr.. Jarvie replied cheerfully that
he thought a concern supplying 80 per
cent of the sugar sold in this coun-
try would lose more under those con-
ditions than the firm supplying the 9TH
er, 10 per cent. and that he had the 10
per cent end of the bargain just now.
