CUBA'S SUGAR CROP
viii Be Financial Failure Unless the
Price Of Commodity Advances.

HAVANA, March 5.-The present
sugar crop will prove financial fail
ure unless the price of sugar advances.
Although the weather is good and the
abundance of cane has enabled grind
ing TO be carried on without Interrupt
tion, the cost of production Is excess
sive The cost of labor is nearly double
the average for recent years. The
Spanish silver is nearly at par and
the railway rates are very high. The
planters complain they are working
exclusively for the benefit of the rail
roads, which are charging from IS to
so cents for hauling a sack Of sugar
of 1926 pounds weight to port 1t is
alleged that the principal railroad
which recently increased its capital
stock so per cent did so to hide the
high dividends it is earning. These
1t is said, are almost due to the high
freight rates on sugar.

ANOTHER RECESS
is SUGGESTED
TO GIVE ADDITIONAL TIME FOR
REFuRNIsHINe cAPIToL-NoT
FAVORED BY MEMBERS.

There is some discussion Of an ad
iournment Of the Legislature when Il
reconvenes next Tuesday at the close
of the recess for another week or ten
days. This talk has arisen over the
fact that some fear is entertained
that there viii not be sufncient time
before the meeting next Tuesday to
complete the refurnishing OF the SEN
ate Chamber and the Hall Of the House
Of Representatives, and some OF the
members are anxious that this work
should not be interfered with, says
the Nashville American.
Senators and Representatives who
have expressed an opinion on the sub
ject have generally opposed the sug-
gestion for a further recess, and 1t is
altogether probable that the session
will continue from next Tuesday to the
day without interruption.
A majority OF the members have al
ready made their business arrange
ments on the idea that the session
would finally close about April IS, and
they will be slow to vote for any fur
Their postponement.

was cut with a knife across the neck
by Will Alexander in the Bethel
House saloon Tuesday afternoon, and.

to DR.. Pillows infrmary. where his
wounds were dressed, and he will be
all right in few days.
Employees of the hotel state that
Alexander was drunk and that an eff

and go to bed, but he refused. That

come and get him, but the cutting oc-

had had no difficulty or trouble at the
hotel and Russell was not even talk
ing to Alexander when he was cut
They think Alexander was simply too
drunk to know what he was doing.
Alexander was locked up, but was
later released. Russell refused to
prosecute ate the city court Wednes-
day. so simple charge of drunk and
was registered against
Alexander, and he was fined 5000.
