The factory work of the year was
well done throughout and at a lower
cost per ton of sugar than for the pro
vious year. The low sucrose content
OF the cane for the season was against
the mill, for the reason that, with a
low sucrose conten,. there is a large
percentage Of impurities in the juice
which entails great loss In manufac.
ture. Nevertheless the actual loss
was but 11.99 per cent. sugar on the
extremely low average sucrose con.
tent OF 1922 per cent. for the crop.
II will be necessary In 1905 to re.
place six multiubular boilers. Two of

boilers to be replaced are those which
have been IN service since the begin.

not include the large loss incurred
through deterioration of cane. In this
connection it may be well to state the

The Secretary Expected Back In

Washington In June.
Washington, April 26.-Acting Secre
tary Adee received a cablegram from
Secretary Hay dated at Bad Nauheim
in which the secretary states simply
but emphatically that he is getting
better.
Touching the press report from the
German springs to the effect that the
secretary's heart is affected, tits learned
from persons acquainted with his trou-
Bile that Secretary Hays heart affection
is not organic, but purely symptomatic,
and is expected to yield readily to
treatment.
Mr.. Hay is now expected to return
to Washington about the middle of
June, although he is being urged by
his friends here to prolong his stay
abroad, in view of the quiescent state
of foreign affairs so far as the state
department is concerned, and the mani
fest benefit he is deriving from his
tour.

the tragedy. William Toppin. who was
formerly employed in the Forney man.
Sion was detained by the police. and
after ne had been examined by Can
tain of Detectives Donaghy he was re-
leased. Topping could throw no light
on the case.
The authorities are inclined to the
theory that Samuel Barnes. the butler
shot Margaret Toner the cook. and
then committed suicide. They base this
theory on a statement made by the
cooks sister, who said that her sister
had told her that Barnes had threat
ened to kill her because she had scoIded
him for drinking. Barnes was of a
norose disposition. Early this year he /
wrote and signed a pledge to stop |
The pledge bore the sigma |
