SUGAR WAR Is on.
Big Fight Between Spreckels and In
dependent Companies.

The arrival of Max Lorenz at the
ST. Francis Hotel lends additional in
terest to the impending sugar fight
between Spreckels' Western Sugar re-
fnery and the Independent planta-
tions of Hawaii, which are represent
ed by the Sugar Factors company of
Honolulu. says the San Francisco EX-
aminer. The latter some months ago
bought for $2,000,000 controlling
interest in the Crockett refinery
across the bay in Contra Costa coun-
Spreckels combine.
Lorenz has been sent here from
Honolulu to be superintendent of that
establishment and he will proceed to
get things in shape to open it on
March l, 1906. George NJ. Rolph is
to be business manager of the refin-
| cry. The latter has been closed for
little over two years owing to an
agreement with the Spreckels people
That agreement will end on the last
day of next February. Spreckels has
been paying 100000 a year to keep
the place closed.
The Spreckels people have hereto
fore demanded of the Hawaiian plan
ters and have received a discount of
three-eighths cents a pound. equal to
| $3.50 q ton Of sugar less than the
New York market price.
As the amount of Hawaiian sugar
| sold on the coast equals $50, 900 tons
year, this has meant an annual trib-
ute paid by the Hawaiian planters to
the Spreckels people of s1,225,0 900.
For this the Hawaiian planters have
received nothing. They have paid it
simply because it was demanded, and
| they We're not in a position where
they could protect themselves against
extortion. 1t Is this enforced tribute
more than any other cause that has
led to the creation of the Sugar Fac
tors company, with the fight now on
the tapis
The Sugar Factors company con-
trolls $4,000 Of the 400, 600 tons of the
annual sugar crop of Hawaii and has
renewed for three years its contract
with eastern refineries to dispose of
the crop, with the provision of being
allowed to refine up to 10000 tons
ON this coast. This large control of
the Hawaiian crop will force the
| Spreckes people to buy raw sugar in
| Java and elsewhere.
