The polo tournament will be one Of
the great sporting events of the year.
Polo is by long odds the most pictures
que game played and also furnishes an
amount of excitement which is hardly
equalled by either football, baseball or
boat racing. Our islands furnish ex-
cellent and fearless riders, and now that
the game has taken such a hold upon
the sporting fraternity, some fine ponies
have been picked out for the work.
With teams from each of the islands
there will be the healthiest Of rivalry.
The team which comes out first in the
contest will have hard work to win its
place, and will deserve its success. The
only objection to polo is the element of
danger from accident, but then what
good sport is free from that element.
After the tournament there is to be a
ball which will be as memorable in the
annals of amusement, as the games are
hoped to be in the annals Of island
sport, The tropics do not sap the vital
ity of our youth

The law allows for technicalities and
clever lawyers take advantage of every
flaw that their ingenuity can detect.
When a mans character has to be
cleared, however, the getting off upon
technicalities is mighty little satisfac-
ton. The murderer is satisfied if he
can escape the gallows on a technicality
but 1t is poor satisfaction to a man
whose integrity is in question.

KARTELLS IN THE WAY
PREVENT AGREEMENT IN SUGAR
CONFERENCE.
Are in Reality Unofficial Forms for Pro-
viding Sugar Bounties-Attitude Of
France and Great Britain.

A dispatch from London says: 1t is
learned upon excellent authority to-
night that the internationSl sugar con-
ference, at Brussels, is practically GER
tain to end in a disagreement between
the powers concerned therein, with the
result that France and Great Britain
Will take aggressive steps against the
Austrian and German bounty system.
The KaTtells' organization of sugar
retineTs in the latter countries formed
the rock upon which the delegates to
the conference split. NJ Yves GuyOt,
former editor of lie Steele and one of
the best known publicists in France,
who represents various French govern
mental and industrial interests, recent
ly had an important secret conference
with Sir Michael Hicks Beach, chan
cellOr of the British eXchequer with
the result that France and Great Brit
ain are practically committed to a COM
mercial alliance in an endeavOr to sup
press sugar bOunties.
AdVices received from Brussels by SUI
gar magnates here are to the effect that
both Great Britain and France had de-
manded that Germany and Austria not
only withdraw their bounties but sup
press the "kaTtells," which are repre-
scented as being merely unofficial forms
for providing subsidy for sugar pro-
duceTs. Germany and Austria have so
far maintained their attitude which
expresses intolerance at what they de-
scribe as interference in purely inter-
nal affairs, and while they are willing
to amend their sugar bOunties they ut
terly decline to discuss the "kartells."
No "kartells" exists in France, and
unless some modification of the existing
conditions be arrived at Frances sugar
industry Is likely to suffer equally with
Great Britain's in spite of the French
sugar bounty, which France has eX-
pressed her willingness to withdraw in
the event of the suppression of the Aus
trian and German "kartells" and boun-
ties.
The best informed opinion here is that
on the failure of the Brussels confer
ence both Great Britain and France will
bring forward in their respective legis-
