SUGAR TARIFF TIMERS.

The threats of sugar trust leaders
and beet sugar promoters to tinker
with the tariff at the next session of
Congress may well be regarded as
empty assertions serving only as fac
tors in sharp competition. The rea-
sons presented in former days for the
protection of the sugar industry are
not whit less cogent today.
The development of the beet sugar
industry through the Mainland, the
steady progress of cane sugar produc-
ton in Louisiana, the additional in
vestment OF Mainland money in Ha-
wall all serve as an additional in
iluence to prevent any action by Con-
gress that will flood our markets with
either cane or beet sugars from foreign
countries. A solid phalanx Of pros
porous farmers throughout the north
ern States has been added to the
forces that will contend against any
reduction or manipulation of duties
that will turn large proportion Of
profits into the Golfers of refners.
The present sugar schedule has made
thousands OF struggling farmers pros
porous and the party or Congressman
that hampers with the source of this
income will promptly be relegated to
private life. Agricultural products
have almost Invariably taken second
place in the advantages gained through
the protective tariff. What little has
been secured will not be given up to
satisfy the greed of powerful combina.
lions seeking to rule or ruin.

new YORK REFINERY
A WESTERN SCHEME

New York. Aug. 2.--The Journal Of

The hackers OF the new refinery
which is being erected at Edgewater,
near Fort Lee, N. j., On the shores OF
the Hudson river opposite the tomb OF
General Grant are Robert Crooks &
Co.. among the largest importers Of
refined sugar in this market. How
ever. the fact that Robert Crooks &
Co have been identified with the for
eign sugars is not a factor in the new
company's policy as the firm will
merely act as agents for the new re-
Emery. e. II. Laing Of Robert Crooks

The work of ~remodeling the third

by the National Telephone Company, is
well along on the road to completion
and will be pushed as rapidly as pos
sible. The work of putting in apparat-

drawn up, call for a very handsome
suite of Offices. In fact the central Of
fce will be, when completed, one OF
the finest in the country.

hand, SO that there may be no chance
of crowding accommodations. One of
the features will be a lounging room
for the operators. 1t is very large and
will be fitted with every modern con-
venience. Each operator will have a
private locker.
The operators room, where the
switchboard will oe placed, is the
largest in the suite. The city switch

t~ion-PeOple Crossing at Bellaire.
Other River Notes.
The river closed in front of this city
| yesterday morning, and the cold weather
of yesterday has so strengthened the ice
that it will take a considerable rise to
break it up and again open the river for
navigation. The marks on the wharf at
midnight recorded a rise of 4 feet, but
this was caused by the back water.
The river closed at Moundsville Satur-
ice coming down from above filed the
channel up rapidly, and by dark the
! gorge had extended to the B.. & o. bridge
at Bellaire. During the night the channel
in front of the city was filed up. From
Moundsville to Fourth strict the ice was
one continual sheet, save for a break next
the Island shore extending from the steel
bridge to Fink street.
From Fourth street to the Terminal
railway bridge at Martins Ferry, the
river is free from ice, as a gorge formed
against the bridge pier and held the ice
back before the space was filled. From
the bridge to above the water works
pumping station the river is closed, and
the ice from above is constantly extending
the gorge further up stream.
The cold weather of yesterday strength
| ened the ice and last evening people were
crossing on it between Benwood and
Bellaire.
