CHAMPAGNE BOTTLES
USED As MISSILES

Two boys were on the sidewalk In
front of the Promotion Committee
rooms shortly before a. m. Friday and
were just about to cross the street to
Mr. Steiner's curio store, when a cham
payne bottle fell almost at their feet
and smashed into bits the splinters
scattering in every direction. Closely
following the first bottle came a sec
ond and this, too, missed the boys with
little margin to spare One of the boys
is son of Jas. Steiner and the other of
J F. Morgan.
Mr.. Steiner at once began an investi-
cation after picking up fragments of
the bottles. They We're of the Red
Top" Dry Monopole'' brand and the
two tops Mr.. Steiner keeps as souvenirs.
Possibly, later on they may be used
for the purpose of indicating to the bot
tie thrower that the rights of pedes-
TRANS must be respected.
The matter was investigated and 1t
was found that young man, lately
from the States, threw the bottles out
of the hotel window He is no longer
quartered there.

While annexation may be the ulti-
mate destiny of CubasI beg to pre-
sent a few reasons why, in my opinion
it cannot be consummated in the near
future, if at all, under existing condi-
tions.
It is easy for anyone at all acquaint-
ed with the sugar industry in Cuba to
foresee the result if Cuban sugar
should be Admitted free of duty into
the American market. There are ap-
proximately only one-half q million
acres of land in sugar cultivation in
the island of Cuba, while there are at
least five million acres suitable for
cane cultivation in the island. Ac-
cording 20 a recent statement of Pro-
fessor julius Wolf of the University of
Breslau. one of the greatest European
sugar experts, if only the very best
cane land in Cuba is utilized the island
will be able to increase its present pro-
duction of sugar five fold. Hon. Vic
tor S. Clark of the Department of Com
merce and Labor, who has made.
careful study of Cuba, says in Com
mercial Cuba, 1905":
Gwen were only choice lands used
we suppose that ten per cent of the
entire area, or five times the present
acreage, may be planted in cane" This
would be six million tons, or more
than double the present consumption
of the United States.
With the present unscientific meth
DDS, sugar is produced on modern
Cuban plantations at u cost of not over
a cent and a half pound. The Nipe
Bay Company, recently organized, con-
trolling 10000 acres of land, with a
50G-ton mill under construction, based
its prospectus on cost Of cent and
a quarter a pound
RESULTS OF ANNEXATION.
Such cheap production, together with
low marketing charges, nearness TO
American capital and the labor supply
OF Europe would, in a very short time,
double production under the stimulus
of annexation as has been the case IN
Hawaii,e under far less favorable con-
ditions.
America would then export sugar to
Europe instead of importing beets ana
New York would dictate the worlds
price instead of Hamburg
The annexation of Cuba would mean
disaster TO production in the vast terri
tory of the United States now devoted
to tobacco beets and sugar cane.
There is absolutely no question about
1t; but that very fact is our sheet an
Choir of safety.
CONSUMPTION OF FREE SUGAR.
The actual consumption of sugar in
the United States during the year 19o5
was 1882 216 long tons
