SUGAR TRUST SNAP
WOULD GAIN MILLIONS BY AN.
NExATlON OF CUBA.
Economic Problem 1t Would Be Well
for People of the United States to
Consideration People Are
Plundered.

The sugar trust already has a sof
snap and II we annex Cuba it will
plunder the people of more millions
unless the sacred tariff Is revised
The trust sells it's refined sugar on
the OASIS OF the cost of the raw sugar
and the tariff duty and profit added
1t buys most of the raw sugar from
Cuba and on that pays the tariff duty
less discount of 20 per cent. of
which discount the trust gets at least
one-half. The sugar from the Philip
pines imported into the United States
Is allowed a discount on the tariff
duty of 25 per cent. and of this the
trust gets nearly all. The sugar i'm
ported from Hawaii comes in free of
duty, so that any Hawaiian sugar the
trust buys it pays no duty upon. OF
course, the price of sugar in Cuba and
the Philippines is somewhat increased
by the discount on the tariff duty. or,
as in the case of Hawaii and Porto
Rico. by being admitted free of duty
there is a subsidy, amounting to what
the duty would be, to be divided be-.
tween the sugar grower and the sugar
trust.
The price of sugar in the United
States is fixed by the trust at just
little less than refined sugar can be
imported for, after paying one and
95-1OO cents per pound, which is the
tariff duty on refined sugar. The
tarlH on raw sugar ranges from 95-100
OF cent pound, up to one and $500
cents pound according to quality,
though when it is pure enough to be
assessed at the higher duty it is
ranked as refined sugar and the duty
is one and 95-100 cents a pound. This
difference in the tariff duty between
refined and enough raw sugar to pro.
duce the same amount of refined
sugar, is the 'differential" in the tariff |
duty in favor of the trust. But the |
important matter to remember is that |
as long as any sugar is taxed by the |
tariff, all the sugar that is imported |
free of duty and the sugar that is i'm !
ported at a discount on the tariff duty |
IS paid for by the people at the same
price as If it was refined sugar, upon
which the full duty had been paid.
The domestic cane sugar grown in
Louisiana and the beet sugar pro-
iuced in several states is all sold at
he highest price. so that virtually the
ariff duty is subsidy to the pro-
lucers.
Ii all the sugar that can be grown
n Cuba should be admitted free of
luty and yet the tariff was main
aimed, the price of sugar would still
re as high to the American consumer
s If the government received the
arif tax on the same, which in round
umbers amounts to $50,000,0O0
ear So there is an economic prob
EN- for the people of the United ,
tates to settle in considering the ,
uestion of the annexation of Cuba 8
ntirely apart from the question of {
neither Cuba shall be free. If the :
evenue now produced By the tariff :,
TX on sugar is reduced, or abolished, :
lere will have to be something else -
lxed to make up for the loss of rev. =
1ue from sugar. .

According to the official figures pre-

lives as a result of the earthquake and
the fire which followed it. More than
One-half Of the deaths were caused by
fire, seven persons were shot by the
police or soldiers, and two died from
the effect of poisonous food dealt out
to the hungry. The first reports
which came from the stricken city,
that thousands had been killed, were
exaggerated, as is commonly the case

Gasoline and Alcohol.

The greater safety of alcohol, az
compared with gasoline for CONNER
cial uses, is due to the fact that it
will not ignite from pure radiated
heat, as gasoline does; that water will
extinguish burning alcohol while it
will only spread a fire of gasoline, and
that the flames of burning alcohol ra-
dates very little heat while that Of
gasoline radiates heat very rapidly.
