LOBECK SUGGESTS WAY oUT
Fire and Police Commission Hears
Communication but TrRnsacts
Little Business

The Board Of Fire and Police Commits
sioners held brief session last night. The
principal matter before the board was "A
statement from City Comptroller Lobeck
with regard to the shortage in the fire
funds. He said that an estimated shortage
had been submitted August 20. 1906, and
that to meet this he had asked that the
council charge the cost of equipment pur-
chased in 1904 to the general levy fund. This
was hoped to meet the full shortage. but IL
seemed not to have been sufficient. How
ever he said that he had recommended to
the mayor and the council that they place
$1,000 to the credit of the fire fund He
invited the board to visit the Office of the
comptroller oftener and said that only one
had done so for several months past He
thought IL would give rise to a better un-
Outstanding of the citys need and condi-
t!na If this was the case.
The license granted to G. Jensen 2236
South Twentieth street, last week was
withheld because there was a second APP
plication filed with the board from Hans
Nielsen for the same place, Nielsen is the
present occupant of the premises.
The board decided to grant no more
leaves of absence during the rest OF this
year, owing to the circumstances i'm which
the finances of the police fund are found.
The application of A. F. Lambert for re-
instatement of the police force was filed.
Lambert resigned several weeks ago.

United States increases from less than
10000 tons as It now is, to l,S0o.OO tons,
II will not affect the price at which sugar
will be sold in the United States. But 1t
Is said that IL you open the markets of the
United States to Philippine sugar, the in
crease in its production will be unlimited,
Philippine production will become. The
greatest amount of sugar ever produced
the year 1888 when the total expectation
reached 10000 tons. Ths total consumed
the proposition that the American market
is going to offer such IA motive for the
production of sugar in u. Philippine
l0c,0 900 tons year to 100000, il palpably
absurd. Eighty-seven thousand tons Is the
lowest on record for the expectation of
sugar. The price of sugar last year was
an advance over the previous year quite
equal to the advance OF price In Philippine
in free to the ports of the United States,
and yet the effect of that upon the export
was only TO increase 4 from $1,000 tons 70
10000. And this with great deal of.
sugar hand lying fallow in the provinces
of Negros and PampanBa. The price of
of 1874 pounds OF 2.d cents a pound laid
down in New York; the freight is O.24 cent
and the insurance Is 00S cent, or total
is 10 be added, making total of 314 cents.
At this price bit 1900 tons were exported.
Now, the proposition Of the, opponents Of
the bill IS that II this cost of laying down
in New York was 3l5 cents, or about 10 per
cent less than at present, which would be
the effect of reducing the duty on sugar
from IS to rs per cent Of the Dingley rates,
as now proposed, the importation from the
Philippines would increase from $1,000 tons
to 100000 TONS or LOO per cent.
Capital aud Labor.
Much is made OF the probable investment
of American capital in sugar and sugar
machinery. In the first place, by the laws
of the Philippines enacted by congress- no
corporation can take up or hold more than
$500 acres of land This Is prohibitory so
far as new investments in sugar plantations
are concerned, because the sugar cane pro-
duced from such a tract would not justify
the investment OF the amount needed for
modern sugar plant. A plant necessary for
the turning out Of 1900 tons of sugar an
nually costs tl.O00,OO0 To produce 10000
tons Of sugar i'm the Philippines there must
be an investment of t33 900 in plant
alone, and TO produce /, 700 600 tons Il would
require more than SllO,00O,0O0, and this does
not include the heavy cost OF preparing
land for cane, which would certainly be
$15,000 600 more. Is such an investment to
be Induced by the prospect OF reduction
in the cost OF laying sugar down in the
American market at 10 per cent less than Il
can now be laid down there?
Then the sugar men say, "Ah. but you are
going TO admit Chinese labor, and with
Chinese labor the possibilities of sugar pro-
duction are enormous" The Chinese Ex-
clusion act applies to the Philippines with

had been slightly ailing last week, but
early last Saturday he went down town

died he ate a plate Of soup in the lodging
house where he stays, zoos Capitol, and

the end his title was denied, except TO

there had been as kind to the old man as

It Is impossible that the price of raw sugar

affected by the Introduction free of 100000
TONS or of 100000 tons, or of 100000, tons
or OF $4,000 tons from the Philip
pine islands, because the demand for the
sugar will stu exceed all that can be

sugar will be determined. not by the price

PARIS Nov. 2O-Speclai reports received
here OF the wreck OF the steamer Hilda,
which left Southampton Friday night for
St. Malo France. and was totally wrecked
on Les Portes reef. outside the Jardin
lighthouse, yesterday morning, with the
loss of over 100 lives, gives a graphic de-
scription of the disaster. owing to the
rough sea, together with a thick snow
storm, the captain of the ..da probably
took the buoy light of the rocks for the
st. Malo lighthouse. He gave signals
which were not seen by harbor employees
and then the steamer proceeded slowly to-
ward the light When the Hida struck
the rocks the steamers boilers exploded
and il was cut in two. giving the passen-
gers no time TO save their lives. Seven
bodies wearing life belts were stranded on
the village OF st. Cast yesterday evening.
The coast near st. Malo is covered with
wreckaEe and some cattle. TwO-thrds OF
the Hilda's passengers were French farm
ers returning to France with heavy sums
in gold from the sale of their yearly harry
est of onions and potatoes. The others
were English families who were going TO
spend the winter at Dinard. The wreck
lies on the beach three miles of ST. Malo,
showing only its main mast and forecastle.
A correspondent of the Matin went to the
scene OF the wreck on government
steamer with the local offcials. They
picked up five bodies which were entangled
in tho rigging OF the Hilda. The bodies
presented dreadful spectacle, with arms
and legs twisted In all directions and hands
torn with desperate struggling.
