SUGAR CAUSES
SERIOUS SPLIT
PACIFIC TRAFFIC AND CONNER
CIAL ASSOCIATION MEMBERS
HAVE DIVISION OVER PRICES.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 4.-Ac-
cording to the deserving members of
the Pacific Traffic and Commercial As
ISOLATION, that organization will in a
few days be a thing of the past. Six
Of the wealthiest jObbers in the city
have. jumped the ranks and have de-
clared for an open market for sugar
There will Ne no sugar war as far as
the ordinary consumer is concerned but
there will be an argument as regards
the retailing of the commodity
For a considerable tine the Pacific
Traffic and Commercial Association
has been in existence. 1t was formed
with the idea of securing from the re-
finery a quantity" pr.ce for the job
bers. This was effected. Then it be-
came known within the rank and file
that some of the members We're under
selling the others, and a split was the
result. Several of the richest firms
seeded and did business alone. The
climax came yesterday, when the firms
of the William Cuff Company and
Wellman, Peck & Co. joined the ranks
of the seceders. This means that the
most influential members of the organ
ization are i'm favor of an open market
and that i'm the future the retailer will
have the advantage OF dealing with a
Wholesale grocer who may or may not
have the privilege of buying sugar at
lower price than the refneries are
willing to sell in small lots.
The resignation of the two firms yes
terday means the disrupting of the
Pacific Traffic and Commercial Assoc
citation. It's effectiveness was confined
to its ability to buy sugar i'm quantity
lots at certain figures Now the firms
that have deserted the organization
can buy as large consgnments as the
organization, and that means com
handing the same figure which leaves
absolutely nothing for the organizat ton
to work upon. The seeding firms are
Haas Brothers, Tillman & BendeI,
Sussman, WOrmser & Co, Levin &,
Meyer, the William Cuff Company and
the Wellman, Peck & co.

ENTERTAIN IN FRISCO.

The San Francisco Chronicle says:
Mr.. and Mrs. William G. Irwin hon
ored three of the seasons most attract
i've debutantes, Miss Charlotte Wilson,
Miss Margaret Hyde-Smith and Miss
Anita Harvey, with a beautiful dance
at their palatial residence at Washing
ton and Laguna streets last evening.
About 9 O'Clock, guests began arriv-
ing and, after removing wraps, were
informally received in the white and
gold ballroom on the lower floor. When
the hundred and twenty-five hidden
were congregated in the handsome
apartment they made a brilliant show
ing. But the ballroom itself drew forth
many sigh of admiring appreciation.
Against an ivory woodwork touched
with gilt were panels of a rich old gold
brocade. At intervals along the rooms
length and breadth We're set in six
panel length mirrors framed i'm narrow
gilt. These were brought to the Irwin
home from the palace of Queen Hor-
tense, in Paris. Directly opposite the
entrance of the ballroom is a deep re-
cess containing a movable stage, so
made that it can be used for the pur-
pose of accommodating the musicians
as was the case last evening, or of pro-
viding scenery and space for theatri-
cal purposes. The only flowers used in
decoration were two tall jars of Amer
lean Beauties and st. Joseph lilies.
Near the broad door stood Mr.. and
Mrs. Irwin and her three young guests
of honor all in dainty white, as was
their hostess. Soon the inclination of
those greeted timed their footsteps to
the seductive rhythm of the dance
and the evenings pleasure was in full
swing. Between waltz and deux
temps, the handsome great rooms were
wandered through, there being not only
much to intrest, but many coy cor
ner for conVeTsationing.
An elaborate supper completed the
evenings festivities and then came to
a close one of the happiest affairs of
this generously treated season, the

Then came wave of peace, as
though steadying hand were laid
upon his quivering nerves, and
Heatherington realized with awe
that he was at last in conscious

Acknowledgements he was, in the
fullest sense, child of God.
He thought of Bernstein, and a
fresh flood of remorse swept over
him. This little man had doubtless
lived nearer God, according to his
belief, than he had. Heatherington
raised his eyes to where the stars
brightness was paling before the
rising sun.

kerchief and, moistening one end
of it, wiped Bernstein's face.
You've got scratch there on
the temple where some glass struck
you" he said, quietly.
The little Hebrew glanced at him
quickly. Shaken as he was by the
afternoons experience, he yet rec
ognized that here was a different

man was concerned the long line
of cuts and snubs, which lay like
series of not-to-be-f forgotten pin
pricks in his consciousness, were at
an end
Together they walked the inter
vening mile which stretched be-
tween them and home. Bernstein's
tongue went like a triphammer as
to the accident and its cause. Heath
erington never spoke.
AT the corner of the street where
their ways parted they halted Sim
ultaneously The Englishnan's
lips twitched as if he was about to
speak. but no words came from
them. Then for the first time in
their ten years acquaintance. the
hands of both men met.
When Heatherington reached his
own doorstep he paused, turning
his face toward the western sky.
For once the veil of reserve was
burned from his eyes and the glory
of the setting sun shone on the start
led inquiry Of an awakening soul
beneath.
Long into the night, while his
wife lay sleeping, he sat in the IL
brary with her Bible on his
knees. Some words he had heard
in church were beating INCREASINGLY
through his brain, and with the help
of a concordance he found them:
And hath broken down the mid
die wall of partition between u.s."
In the light of what he had wit
messed that afternoon, time seemed
infnitesimal, eternity very near.
And there, in the silence of the
night. Alan Heatherington came
to himself, came also to a realiza-
ton of the brotherhood of men in
the man Christ Jesus, and to sense
of his own obligation to his fellows.
The first faint streaks of mid
summer dawn were in the sky when
he turned out the light and raised
the window shade. And as he

MUTiNY At kiEFF.
Ssppsrs Revolt, Owing to Actions Of
Their Martinez Commander. -

London; Dec. 4-The Daily Mails
kieff correspondent in a dispatch dat
ed Dec. 2, says:
Early yesterday morning, COM
pany of sappers, dissatisfied with their
martinez commander, mutinied and
persuaded a second company to join
them. They left the fortress fully armed
and by threats compelled the remain
Ger of the sappers battalion to join
them. Numbering a thousand, the mu-
tineers marched to the barracks Of the
125th Gursk infantry, which, however,
remained loyal. Jewish musicians
marched at the head Of the mutineers.
Several attempts We're made to induce
other troops to join them, but these
likewise failed.
"a body of Cossacks allowed the reb-
els to pass them in the street. Finally
the mutincers arrived at the barracks
of the artillery division, and the AZoft
infantry regiment. The Azoff men an
swered their appeal with insults and
the rebels opened fire upon them. The
Azofts answered with three volleys. A
portion of the, mutineers fed, but the
others continued firing. The Azoffs re-
piled with deadly vOlleys, and finally
the rebels fed headlong, throwing down
their arms. Two hundred Of them sur
rendered and were conveyed to their
barracks by Cossacks. All was over by
2.30 O'clock in the afternoon.
Fifty dead and a hundred wounded
mutineers were left on the ground.
"A court martial has been convened
and a notice issued that any further
attempt at mutiny will be auelled by

oldsIed for Hope Young,
Convicted Of Murder.
Fun Bench Rules That hT
Statement 10 Prosecutor


Halifax, N. s., Dec. 3.1Ehe conVic-
ton of murder against Hope Young
was quashed,, and ANEW trial was or
dered, Saturday, by the full bench OF
the supreme court. The vote Of the
full bench was three in favor of a
new trial to one opposed.
The principal point affecting the de-
cision was that a statement made by
the accused woman while in jail to
the crown prosecutor was wrongfully
admitted as; evidence in view of the
possibility that it might have been in
fuenced by an alleged promise of a
detective that any statement would
help her.
Miss Young was accused of the muir
der of May Young. the 4-year-old
daughter of Elmer E. Young, a Boston
attorney, who had placed his child in
Hope Yonng's care. Last spring May
Young, with another little girl named
Minnie Ward, also in Hope Young's
charge, disappeared. and a searching
party found the children in the woods.
May Young was dead when discovered
and it was charged that Hope Young
had left the child. who was in feeble
health, in the woods with criminal in
tent.
The statement said to have been
made to the detective. and which, the
petition for a new trial alleged. was
wrongfully admitted as testimony. re-
lated that the child found dead in the
woods had died of natural causes ana
had not been placed in the WOODS Dy
the defendant. Another point raised
in the petition to have the previous
verdict set aside concerned the validity
Of certain medical evidence submitted
and whether the findings of the court
were warranted in the face of such
evidence.
The case was tried at Digby and at
tracted widespread interest through
the fact that several witnesses had to
be- called from Boston and gave testi-
mony In some instances that raised
delicate points for adjustment.

has become SO strong and present day
refrigerating devices are so effective
that the sheep growers In the uttermost
parts Of the earth. are under constant
temptation to sell their lambs to the
butcher rather than to let them grow
| up and become fleece bearers. This
tendency, together with the gradual
settling Of territory that used to be
given over exclusively to grazing, has
resulted in a general diminution OF
the number Of the worlds sheep. 1t
is literally true that we are eating. the
coats Off our backs.
The technical features in the situa :
ton have perhaps been responsible
for the public's giving less attention
than might have been expected to ta-
bles of sheep statistics recently pub
lished by textile trade paper in
Boston. The boil weevil that has
threatened the cotton pant in the
South has naturally attracted far
more newspapers notoriety than the kill
ling of lambs In distant places. Dimi-
mutton of the herds of Tasmania or
Paraguay is pretty PARKWAY sub
ject. The average man doesn't give
bleat, SO to speak, for sheep at that
distance. Yet the conditions would be
alarming to important textile centres
of New England if it were not for
two or three redeeming features.
They already are regarded as alarm
ing at the greatest wool centre OF the
world, the English city Of Bradford.
At a recent auction sale in London the
Bradford buyers were described as
taking wool with the freedom Of a
hungry dog swapping at a tasty meal"
The same correspondent writes, Il
have had a life long connection with
the wool trade of Yorkshire, but like
many more who are older / have never
known a time when the stocks have
been SO cleaned out and the world
wanting wool. If there is one thing
that has deprecated in value in York
shire these last two years, it is ware
house rents, simply because we have
not had anything to put into them"
The fact is, the buyers of so many ma
tions are now in competition for such
wool supply as is in sight that the
outlook is not unnaturally viewed with
concern in Great Britain,
The number of sheep Is actually
decreasing in most of the other
countries of the world as we'll as in
the United States. Germany. in 1860,
had about 2S.000,OOO: there were less
than 100000 in 1900. India's focks
fell off from about 81 1000 900 in 1892
to 100000 in 1903; Spain's from TO-
100000 in 1896 to 100000 in 1903
Great Britain has five million fewer
now than ten years ago. Russia shows
a slight decrease and with growing
| manufactures has begun to import
wool instead of exporting it. Even
Iceland, from which Boston has lately
been getting a few bales, offers no large
and dependable source of supply. So it
goes throughout the civilized world.
The. demand for dressed meats has all
most everywhere resulted in killing off
a large proportion of the lambs and
young sheep that in former days would
have been allowed to live through
several clips.
