Manchuria Is Being Pounded Heavily

HONOLULU, Aug. 2i.-It is the gen
eral impression that the Pacific Mail
liner Manchuria which ran on reef off
Rabbit Island before daylight Monday
morning is hopelessly aground and may
be a total loss. All efforts to float 1t
have up to this morning been in vain.
She is far inside the reef now and
pounding heavily. The vessel is stand

strong wind came up from the south,
and the flames swept onward with re-
newed violence, completing the destruc-
ton of the residence district.
Probably not more than 20 per cent.
of the buildings in the city were spared
by the earthquake and fire.
The greatest force of the shock seemed
to center around the commercial dis
trict, where the great banks and com.
mercial houses were situated. Most OF
the buildings there were either demol-
ished or badly damaged. The fire COM
pleted the work of destruction.
Meat Riots in Santiago.
SANTIAGO. Aug. (Monday.)-
There have been a number of exciting
scenes around the public slaughterhouse
and meat market here on account of in
crease in price of meat. The troops had
to be called upon to restore order. Later
a movement was started among the peo-
pie not to buy any meat until the price
was reduced. This caused the mayor to
take steps to punish the butchers. He
established meat depots.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Aug. 2l.-
After five months competition between
the western sugar refinery and the Cali
fornia and Hawaiian sugar refining com
pany, the price Of sugar has dropped
from 1913 to $40. In New York the
price is $3.50. while at tie Missouri riv-
er it is 50.
Tho $3.50 price in the local market
means the ruling figure for all the Ia
cife coast states. This figure is so low
that southern and other coast beet sugar
makers refuse to sell here and are ship
