President Kruger's Reputed Wealth
From the London Tclerranh

from the London Telegraph.
A paragraph has been published in one
of the South African papers giving an obvi-
ously exaggerated account of President
Kruger's wealth. It is pretty generally ad-
mitted that that notorious head OF the re-
bellious Transvaalers Is the possessor of
valuable property. emitting him to the
rank of millionaire. but that his real es-
tate Is worth between nineteen and
twenty millions sterling" even the most
credulous would be loath to take in with
out grain Of salt The paper goes on to
state that 'he owns 100 freehold farms,
many of them on the Main Reef. which he
would not allow to be worked" but 1t is to
BIO remembered that there are not a great
number Of farms on the Main Reef alto
gether. He is. however. known to have
sold one farm for 100000. He Is said to be
the largest land owner in Rustenburg dis
tr!ct, and the largest shareholder In the
Netherlands railway. dynamite concession
and Hatherley distillery. This may be true.

SUGAR TRADE OF EGYPT.
Vast Increase in the Production and
in Home CONSUMPTION.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-(Special.)
George H. Murphy, United States
vice-eonsul at Magdeburg. reports to
the state department on the sugar
trade Of Egypt in 1892 as follows:
According to report of the Austro-
Hungarian Chamber of Commerce at
Alexandria, there was considerable
growth in the sugar trade of Egypt in
the year 1899. Both Importation and
expectation increased, as did also do
nestle consumption. The amount *
ported was $1,000 tons, of which 90, 300
tons went to America, $500 tons to
India and Red Sea countries, $500 tons
to England, $50 tons each to Italy and
Turkey, and $50 tons to France. Egypt
is exerting itself to the utmost to in
crease its production of sugar, which
has already grown from 7.72 per cent
in the year 1898 to SIS per cent in
1S99-1900. OF the different sorts of yu-
gar the most salable in Egypt is con-
casse; the sort known as pile is fast
losing popularity.
A recently introduced novelty in the
Egyptian market is Austro-H Hungarian
crystal sugar, of which several thou
sand sacks have already been imported
in the current year. Increased sales
cannot, however, be counted upon, as
Russian sard sugar (muscovado) is
also being introduced and sold francs
per 100 Kilograms (3S.6 cents per 220.4 6
pounds) cheaper. Domestic consume
ton has increased much more than i'm
portation, and this demand is coming
more and more under the control of
the Societe des Sucreries ct Raffineries
d'Egypte. This company increased its
sales of refined sugar in the Egyptian
market from $3.50 tons in 1S94-95 to
$1,000 tons in 1S97-9S. In the same
period its expectations increased from
455 tons to $500 tons.
In addition to refined sugar, the
Egyptian market takes about 10000
tons of granulated sugar, half Of which
is supplied by the company above men
toned, whose factories are capable Of
producing 10000 tons annually. By
using electrolysis the company has con-
siderably improved the quality of its
refined sugar. thus increasing its pOpu-
larity. Prices are regulated by those
obtaining in the Trieste market, though
the Egyptian company sells for half a
franc less in order to obstruct importa-
ton. In Cairo foreign sugars can no
longer compete, as factories are To-
Gated in the vicinity, while imported
sugar is burdened with railroad freights
amounting to 1.50 francs (29 cents).

PORTO RIco's COMMERCE.
Wonderful Growth the in First Twe
Months Under New Tariff.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-(Special)
Commerce between the United States
and Porto Rico during the two months
in which the new tariff act has been in
operation shows an enormous increase
over that Of the corresponding two
months of the preceding year. This Is
the more observable because OF the as
sertion which has been frequently made
during the past few months that he
island is practically impoverished since
the storm Of last august
Notwithstanding the conditions due
to the storm, both as to material for
expectation and facilities for purchase,
the exports to the United States in
May and June, 1900. we're so per cent
in excess of those of the corresponding
months of 1899, and the imports into
the United States from Porto Rico were
more than double those Of the same
months in 1890 In May and June. 1888,
the imports into the United States from
Porto Rico. a. shown by the reports
of the treasury bureau OF statistics,
were 81. 461 ,99S. and in May and June.
1900, they were $2.32a. LA. In May
and June, 1883. the exports to Porto
Rico from the United States were $685.
sS7. and In May and June. 1900, they
were q. 5S7.4 AS. Thus the imports into
the United States from Porto Rico
show in May and June. 1900. an In
crease Of 50 per cent over those Of the
same months OF 1889. both Of which
occurred prior to the storm OF that
year. and the exports from the United
States TO Porto Rico show an IN
crease Of 10 per cent over the cor
responding months Of 1883.
