LOUISIANA PLANTERS COMBINE.

The spirit of combination for the pur-
ing efficiency. has become the corner
stone of American manufacturing in
dustry. 1t is this method of handling
business in the United States which is
forcing American manufactures into
successful competition with the old
world. and in few years has made A.
merica the leading manufacturing
country.
The Louisiana sugar planters have
for years been combining among them
selves in a comparatively small way.
but no general amalgamation has been
attempted. Now. however, that the
sugar business has gotten down to such
q narrow margin of profit that not only
dollars, but fractions of cent, make
the difference between profit and loss,
they are feeling the necessity of obtain
ing every available advantage, and are
forming an amalgamated company
which shall embrace within its lines all
the sugar factories of the state.
Just what lines are being pursued
has not Jet been made public, but the
proposition is being actively promoted
and in a short time the details will
probably be published
A recent Issue of the Chicago Tribune
publishes the following upon the sub
ject. which will be Of local interest, as
it behooves this community to keep in
touch with what other sugar producers
are doing to meet the problems which
confront the industry:
In ten years the number of sugar
refnexiee and sugar houses in Louisi.
ana has been reduced from 400 TO 120
The decrease is not due to a decline o.
the sugar industry but to the CONSOLE
dalton Of plants. Thanks to that con.
solicitation. the sugar producers hay,
been able to buy improved machinery

the distribution of the new stock will
be, Hawaiian Agricultural two shares
each of preferred and common
for one of the old stock; wailuku, 21a
shares each Of the new stocks for one
of the old; onomea, 21k shares each OF
the present $50 shares; Honomn, one
share each for the present stock.
This would establish values of the
following: Hawaiian Agricultural,
$3.50; wailuku. $s25; onomea, s2S; Ho-
nomu, $780,
The plan for the consolidation of the
stock of the corporations will be sub
mitted to the stockholders of the va
rious corporations at meeting of the
stockholders. which viii be held at the
offices of C. Brewer & Company on Sat
urday, October 18th The plan cannot
fail, as there is a majority of each plan
tation represented by those who have
the matter in hand. But there is no in
tention on the part of those interested
to force their plan upon any of the mi
nor stockholders, for they believe that
it is in the interest Of every stockhold-
er to come into the combination. Ac-
cording to the details of the proposal
there will be some plantations which,
on the basis OF the past five years
earnings, will have an apparent loss OF
returns, but in compensation they will
be represented in the combined four
plantations, one an irrigated estate,
two in the Hilo district and one in
Kau, SO that there will be no chance
for a total failure of returns.
The figures which have led up 10 this
determination of consolidation show
that in the past five years there has
been an average earning of thae four
plantations of 1891. 800 This would
mean the payment of the seven per
cent on the preferred stock Of the new
corporation, four per cent dividend on
the common stock and the passing of
more than $3i, 900 to the reserve.
The most favorable reason, however,
is the effect the formation of such a
company viii have upon the Eastern
markets, which, now that the cable is
in sight, win commence to reach out
for local shares. The four estates
which are represented in the Hawaiian
Securities Company are without debt,
have no bonds and nave kept up their
end as dividend earners, despite the
bad years. Daring the present year,
even, there would have been paid the
dividend OF seven per cent on the pre-
ferred stock, and with the slightest in
crease in the price of sugar, there will
be certain dividend in the common
stock. Prominent stockholders in New
York have indicated that they will take
some of this stock, and there will be "a
certain proportion of it for sale there
so that the market price may be fixed.
1t is not the intention to make any
change in the operation of the planta-
lions, as they are separated, but the
owners of shares who refuse to come
into the new corporation, if any there
are so inclined, will be able to see that
the business of each is conducted sep
arateIy and just as at present.
What the future may hold is a ques-
+tion, but it is certain that with the
right to increase it's capital stock
this corporation may get deeper into
the owning of plantations than is now
contemplated

and in many ways to cut down the cost
of production. Efforts are being made
now to carry consolidation still further.
The Louisiana sugar planters have
about come to the conclusion that Gu
ban reciprocity is inevitable. They as
sumo that that reciprocity will reduce
slightly the price of sugar, and create
competition which they will nave 10
overcome if they are TO live. And they
believe they see relief in an organiza-
ton. which will be to all intents and
purposes a trust, by means OF winch
they viii be enabled to reduce stlli
more the cost of production. In this
they are probably correct. Louisiana
has laws against trusts, but they VIII
not be enforced against sugar plant
ers' trust Sugar has been the pet IN
dustry of Louisiana for more than a
century. 1t is an industry which has
always been taken care of by the gen
eraI government Anything the plant
ers may do for the professed purpose
of guarding that industry from injury
will meet with the approval of the
democrats who govern Louisiana. DEM
ocratic national platforms may de-
.ounce protection and trusts, but Lou

protection of sugar and for any trust
or combine which the sugar planters
may deem it expedient to organize"

STRIFE in GUESSING CONTEST
Managers of Kansas City Convention
Hall Are Facing Trouble.

A number of Ottumwa people
guessed on the number of votes the
governor of Kansas would receive,
hoping to. obtain portion of the prize
offered by the management OF the
Kansas City convention hall. To these
people the following dispatch from
Kansas City sent out last evening will
be of interest:
The management of the convention
hall, in order to get money to decorate
the building, conducted a guessing
contest on the total vote for the gov
ernor of Kansas. Over 100000 votes
were cast, netting $4,000 clear for the
hall. The capital prize was $4,000.
When the official announcements OF
the winners was made Wednesday 1t
was found that J. NJ. Simpson, internal
revenue collector for Kansas; Mrs
James Roberts, of Independence, Mo-,
and P. H. Scott, OF Hartford, Kan
had guessed the exact total. 1t was
decided to divide the first three prizes
among them, giving them $4,000 each
| w. H. Miller, of Kansas City, has
coupon, properly stamped showing
that he also guessed the exact amount
but his ticket could not be found
| among the guesses. He has employed
lawyer to sue for his share. Wednes
day Charles Harris, of Sedalla, Mo-, ar
rived in town and engaged lawyers tt
! sue for a share. He has 2 coupon
showing that he, too, guessed the ex
act total, 2S7 16S. but his correspond
1 ing stub cannot be found by the con
yention hall management.
