WASHINGTON LETTER.

(From our regular correspondent.)

(from our regular correspondent.)
Washington, Dec. 20, 1902.
The determination of Senator
beveridge and a clique of Repu blican
Senators, of whom he is the mouth
piece, to obstruct the passage of the
Omnibus Territorial bill was again
mSde-evident on last Thnrsday when
tue measure came up for discussion
~ the Senate. That a considerable
majority of the members of the
senate favor the admission of the
territories to statehood, in accordance
with the pledges of the national
platform of both parties, is also evi
dent from the dilatory tactics which
the opposition Is adopting and their
anxiety to prevent test of votes on
1he bill. Senator Quay, who is
chsmpioning the cause of territories.
openly charged the opposition with
obstruction measures. Their state
ment that sufficient time had not
heen allowed for the discussion of
the measure he met with the state
ment that the subject hsd been under
discussion for fifty wears. Many
months ago the House passed the bill
aud the Senate Territorial Committee
had postponed making its report
until the last possible moment. la
conclusion Mr.. Quay said: IF the
Repu blicun Party can lie to the peo
pie about one plank in it's platform,
1t can lie about ALL" Finally, how
ever, the Pennsylvania Senator per
mitted the till TO 20 over.

The attempt of Senator Cullom to
secure day for the consideration of
the French reciprocity,in doin which
be stated that he was acting not on "
IN accordance with the recommends
tiOns of the Presidents message but
IN accordance with his expressed
wish,met with prompt and apparent
ly efectual opposition from those
Senators who represent strongly pro
tected sections of the county. Sen
ators Aldrich, Hoar. Lodge and De
pew Immediately protested against
the reporting of the treaty and
Senator Aldrich moved that the
treaty be referred to the Finance
Committee, Of which he is chairman.
The reference to the committee would
of course, mean that it would be
buried there forever. Senator Cul.
lom resisted however and gave notice
that he would again call up the
treaty, this week. 1t will be remem-
bered, that while Mr.. Roosevelt did
not recommend in his message any
revision of the tariff, be did suggest
that modification of the present

the ratification of the French and

A change, almost as ludicrons as
It is serious, has taken place in the
House In the past week and the
chances of adequate antitrust legis
lation are now nil. No sooner had
Representative Jenkins been appoint
ed chairman of the Judiciary Com-
mlttee than there developed on his
part an interest jealously of Repre-
sentative Littlefield, whose antitrust
bill had gained him considerable
promise. This jealousy was eucour-
aged by the conservative" members
of the committee and meantime the
"conservatIve" repu blican senators
acquainted Mr.. Jenkins with the fact
that no drastic remedy for trust evils
would be tolerated by them. Now.
jenkins has appointed a sub commit
tee to draft trust bill which shall
meet the approval of the Senate, and
which means that il shall be as-inrf-
fectual in accomplishing its pretend
ed purpose as is the famous Sherman
law. In this connection it may be
said that the prospect of the dead lock
IN the Senate as a result of Senator
Quay's fight for the admission cf the
territories, is hailed with JOY by many
Republican Senators who see therein
a prospect of defeating all trust leg
islation because of ''lack of time"

Emigration to HAWAII.

1t is reported that owing to the ex-
cessive increase in the number of our
emigrants TO Hawaii lately and the loud
cutlery among the public in the United
States against the introduction of Asia
tic labor TO American territory the
Government has decided to stop for the
time being our emigrants from going
to the Hawaiian Islands. When the
America Maru of the Togo Kisen Kai-
sha arrived in Yokohama from Kobe
on Wednesday with $50 emigrants to
Hawaii on board, the authorities pro-
hibited them from going any further
and ordered them to leave the ship
In connection with the report on Ha-
waiian emigration published in our
previous issue. the authorities are said
to have stated that in fact no order had
been given by the Government to all
the enigrants, numbering $50 in all, on
board the America Maru to leave the
ship, but that only % of them. who at
tempted to emigrate to the Hawaiian
Islands without taking the necessary
steps required by the Emigration Law,
were stopped by the authorities of
Kanagawa Prefecture and prevented
from going any further. The rest of
them were of course allowed to con-
tinue the voyage to their destination

COMMENTS on HAWAII.

| The Hawaiian Islands are very blue
low prices, exhausted soils, increasing
! labor costs are powerful factors in the
situation and a careful study of thu
| two sources of the Pacific coast sugar
supply brings the almost unavoida blt
conclusion that some day beet sugar
| will be our sole supply here. Freight
| to New York from Honolulu is already
way down, and even before a Panama
canal is verify the lower rate freight
steamers viii have brought about prac-
tically a complete delivery of the Ha-
waiian crop to Atlantic ports. The ISL
ands are seriously investigating sisal,
and coffee is already quite an impor-
tant crop; they realize that sugar is
rapidly becoming a back number. OF
course it will be many years before
Hawaiis output ceases to come here,
but the dsy is bound to come unless
they do their own refining, or, more
exactly speaking, turn out dry granu-
lated instead of SO test raw. And at
a not very remote date it will be found
that only a small proportion Of existing
plantations can make money al
present prices, or anything near
them. AS community. the ISL
ands are hard up; the net re-
turns in many cases are already peri
lousy near cost and it is beginning to
affect other business. Even the Ocean
ic Steamship Company, which for years
has had a practical monopoly Of San
Francisco Honolulu traffic, and which
was bonanza. IS now levying assess
ments Although it is not a very en-
couraging outlook for island cane.
whereas the contrary is true Of the To-
cal beet.
California as whole is most Won
derfully prosperous and all signs point
to very rapid increase of population
an increase which is not limited to this
state, but which extends all over the
coast. We always were heavy sugar
eaters out here, and the maintenance
of our great canning industry along
with the certain increase in population
means that this ultimate diversion of
Hawaiian cane sugar must be offset
from some other source. and all signs
point to the beet, although coast capital
is slow to recognize it.-Paul Reyd in
Sugar Beet Gazette.

Senator Elkins, although the leader
OF the opposition to the Cuban 20 per
cent reciprocity bill. declares that it
would not hurt the beet sugar industry
at all to annex Cuba and admit the
whole of her sugar crop (about 600, 600
tons a year, duty free. And this is
true.
Securely intrenched behind the tariff
duty of SO a ton on raw and $39 ton
on refined sugar, neither the beet sug-
ar growers nor the refiners' trust have
anything to fear-nor have retail sugar
buyers anything to hope-from the adj
mission of the entire sugar production
of Cuba either at 20 or so per cent
reduction of the Dingley duties, or even
wholly free of duty, as would be the
case if. Cuba were annexed.
The figures of sugar production and
consumption in the United States are
conclusive on this point. During last
year this country consumed 100000
tons of sugar, of which she produced
800, 900 tons-exactly one-third of her
consumption These 100000 tons of
homegrown sugar include the crops of
Hawaii and Porto Rico. Fully one-half
of our total home production of sugar
lis from these islands. Hawaii adds
800 600 tons and Porto Rico 100000 tons
a year to our duty-free sugar, and they
have been doing so for three years past
without affecting the retail price of
sugar by the smallest fraction of a
cent.
Hawaii is the third sugar producing
country of the world. Only Cuba and
Java grow more sugar. Nevertheless
the Hawaiian crop and the Porto Rican
crop, which together equal two-thirds
of the total sugar production of Cuba,
have been added duty free to our sup
ply of raw sugar without affecting the
beet sugar growing industry of this
country or the price of refined sugar.
The reason of this is plain enough when
1t is remembered that twothirds of all
the raw sugar consumed in the United
States is imported from foreign coun-
tries under Dingley duties. The effect
of those duties is to enable the trust
arbitrarily to fix the price to the Amer
lean consumer at $50 per ton, plus ocean
freight charges, above the price of re-
fined sugar made in Germany New
York World.

matter too long.
But while thousands of dollars of
holiday goods were sold the past week
one would Judge that slight inroad
had been made upon stocks in Ameri-
Gus. Many lines have been replen-
ished already aud the stores seem as
beautiful aa in the beginning.
