American continent. But as agriculture
requires very close touch with the labor
ing population, which the Mexican
| planter handles with great ease, but
which to others is an uncertain element,
foreign investors, until very recent
times, did not make use of the oppor-
tunities afforded by the rich ands OF
the republic. The reformation of the
Mexican sugar industry along modern
lines is just beginning, and the first
w~ell-equipped plantations are reaplhs
wonderful eturns.
Excellent coffee is being raised on the
higher lands of the tropical belt OF
Mexico. In this culture, too, large CAPT
tai is necessary on account of the eX-
pensive character of machinery n the
large quantity of labor required in har-
vesting the berries II preparing them
for the market. A product that is
looked Upon with much favor, because
1t does not ~necessitate a long process OF
manufacture or treatment. is cocoa.
which is cultivated in this region with
comparatively little b and small ex-
rense. The cultivation of tropical fruits
has not yet been undertaken on a large
scale, partly on account of the absence
of rapid and regular means of transpor-
tation. Some plantations are. however,
camping their fruit for the Mexican
market, where it brings very acceptable
prices. The finest grade of tobacco is
raised in the Vale Nacional. near Tux
tepec, and in the TuXtla district. The
artificial culture of rubber a now
been undertaken on a large scale. that
1t is often argued that the natural sup
plies Of Brazil, Peru. Africa, and India
are so abundant tina artificial cultiva-
ton will not be profitable.
From all that has been said, it VIII
be seer that Mexico is not a land FOR
investor of small means. AS a
farmer could not himself dc heavy
manual labor in this climate, he would
have to make liberal use of hired help.
His expenses of management would,
therefore, be practically as high as
those of a large plantation. The orig
NAL cost of the land, when reckoned as
including the expenses of clearing and
OF caring for the crop until its matur-
ity. amounts to a large sum per acre.

n supply Of ice put up last season
by the Star Ice Company was exhausted
early, but a repetition of that kind will
not occur this year for the reason that
q much larger amount was harvested.
and the quality is better than ever be-
fore. The Star Ice Company has always
been fortunate in securing the best ice,
and is particularly SO this season. They
are now ready to make contracts, as it
will only be a short time until ice will be
used again, and in fact many families
use it all winter.

OCEANIC COMPANY Is AFTER
All. LINE.
spreckels Company Announces New
Rate Of $3.50 a Ton on Steamer stun
From San Francisco.

The Oceanic Company has announced
a reduction of $3.50 a ton net on it's
steamer freight rates between San
Francisco and this port. The former
rate was $500 per ton net. This an
nOunCement, which is officially made
by the Spreckels agents here, is dated
January 10.
The reduction of freight rates by the
Oceanic Company at this time comes
in the nature of a surprise. The cut
has been forced by the coming advent
Of the local line of the American-Ha-
waiian steamship company between
this port and Kahului and San Fran
cisco. That company announced a net
rate of $3.50 a ton recently between
San Francisco and this port 1t was
naturally expected that this rate would
force the Oceanic people to make a
corresponding reduction but the cut
was not expected quite so soon.
The first vessel of the new company
will make it's appearance this month.
1t is the Hyades which is under spe-
cial charter. She will kept on. the To-
cal run until the two new steamers
win have been completed when they
win be put into commission and run

MYSTERY Is SOLVED

The mystery Of The black eyes re-
ceiVed on the last trip of the America
Maru has been solved. The indefinite
accounts which the San Francisco pa
pers gave of the alleged general condi-
I ton of mourning among the optics Of
the various passengers who landed at
that place last month, gave rise to the
fear that perhaps, every body had in
dulged in free for all fight. The black
eyes were not of so general a charac-
ter as the reports would indicate, but
there were some very hot old times
on the vessel between here and San
Francisco
The fashion for black eyes was set
by Jules CleTfayt, the little represen-
tative of the Trans-Siberian railway
sleeping cars He had his eye put in
to mourning in Honolulu. He engaged
a Portuguese hack driver to take him
driving. During the course of the trip,
Clerfayt made numerous stops where
! he imbibed considerable liquors of a
| icefreshing character. When he came
to settle his fare, he maintained that
he should not pay for the times he had
! kept the hack driver waiting. The
driver insisted on being paid for the
waits Clerfayt objected and dared
him to fight. The fight was short and
decisive, Clerfayt being rescued with
his eye closed.
| On Christmas eve, L. L. Gillespie an
attorney who had been in the Philip
! pines on business and had been a busy
man on the boat imbibing booze and
| P. Fitz-GibbOn were in the smoking
room. Gillespie had, for some reason,
gained the dislike of his fellow travel
ers and in his inebriated condition
| aroused the anger of Fitz-GibbOn. They
| began to fight. Combined, they made
| the smoking room look like a slaughter
pen, while Fitz-Gibbon individually
made Gillespie looked like slaughter
ed animal Both of Gillespie's eyes
were put into mourning and he was
laid up for three days.
Retribution followed though for sew
eral days later on the steamship, FitZ-
! Gibbon fell while running after a COM
panion and received a black eye by

UNCLE SANS LONG EARS BOUGHT
BY HONOLULU PLANTATION.
Manager Low Picks up Bargain and
Buys Stock For Trine over Reserve
Price.

There was a sale Of government mules
this morning at the quartermasters Of
fees on Hotel street under the direc-
ton of Captain Williamson of that de-
partment. Fifteen long ears were trot-
ted out for inspection and the quarter
master sergeant acted as an auctioneer.
The upset price was set at $1OO and
practically the only bidder was Man
ager Low of the Honolulu plantation
who bought all but four of the animals
at a small margin over the upset price,
most of them bringing $11O The others
Captain Williamson reserved for the
present stating that he would get an
other months work out of them before
he sold them at a lower price.
All of the ANIMALS were in good con-
ditiOn and guaranteed sound, those re-
jected by Mr.. Low being left out only
on account of their lack of weight for
his purpose They are all branded U.
5. on the near shoulder but have no
other blemishes.
The plantation manager allowed that
he had purchased the animals at a
bargain, stating that he had some two
hundred head of mules on the planta-
tion which had averaged him S135 to
land here. The sale is the outcome OF
orders received from headquarters some
three months ago, cutting down the
number of troops here and necessitaing
the sale of certain stock in the quarter
masters department.

KEPT Them awake

The America Maru arrived Off port
this morning at an early hour, from
San Francisco She left the dock
about an hour ahead of the Alameda
but owing to the orders Of the Toyo
Kisen Kaisha, Captain Going kept to
the regular schedule and got in here
on time and not ahead of time as has
been the former custom. The vessel
has only a fair sized list of through
passengers. She carried seven Jap
anese stowaways and five depOrted
Chinese.
For the two days previous to reach
ing Honolulu, the vessel experienced
nasty weather. A heavy swell began
to roll and, for two nights, it has been
almost an impossibility for the peo-
pie aboard her to get any sleep. Sew
eral are reported to have rolled out of
their hunks as the vessel was rocked
about by the constant swell 1t seemed
as if she had dropped her bilge keels
for the boat rolled worse than at any
other time in her history The officers
have had to make regular trOughs of
their hunks to prevent being rolled
out.
