COST Of MAKING
SUGAR IN CUBA
Product Can Be Delivered at
a Trihe Over Cent and a
Half a Pound

Consul Max ]. Baehr, IN a repor,
from Cienfuegos, figures the cost of
sugar production in Cuba as follows:
The price of 100 arrobas of cane
placed at the mill is $3.50. Admitting
that salaries, wages and other general
expenses for handing 100 arrobas are
so cents to $1.20, the latter depend
ing upon the size OF the plantation,
its resources. location, or. say, on an
average of 81, and that the yield of
sugar is 10 per cent (the average OBJ
tained in the last two crops), the total
cost of arroba of sugar would be,
including the value OF the cane, $3.50.
plus 81 divided by 10, equaling SO cents:
and If we calculate the cost of trans
portation to the nearest shipping port,
on an average 5 cents per arroba, the
result would be that an arroba of
sugar delivered in the warehouses on
the coast will be II cents, or at the
rate of 1857 per 100 Kilograms "a kilo-
gram equals 1-5 pounds), without in
cluding interest on the capital and ac-
cumulation of the same.
The alcohol industry, an offspring of
the manufacture of sugar that permits
molasses to be utilized, attained at one
time an important place in the indus
tries of the island, during which period
alcohol for export to South American
countries was produced in large guam
titles. Subsequently the import duties
placed upon the article by Argentina
and Uruguay. the principal consumers
of Cuban alcohol were greatly in
creased, with the object of pro-
tecting their own product, since
which time the production has
been reduced to the amount necessary
for home consumption only. In the
province of Oriente there are a number
of distilleries where rum of excellent
quality is made. especially the famous
Ron Bacardi
Although it is difficult to furnish ac-
curate information relative to the cost
OF producing alcohol in Cuba, 1t can be
stated that 100 Kilograms of molasses

alcohol of AZ degrees Cartier. If alco-

LONG LOST FATHER MAY

OAKLAND, March 16.-Deputy Coun-
marriage license on December 15 to
James Matthews and Ellen Diver, an
aged Oakland couple, who were so
feeble that they could not sign their
names to the affidavit but had to make
their marks, has received a letter from
Mrs. George Gurney of 16 Perry street,
New London, Conn, inquiring about
Matthews and expressing the belief
that he is her long lost father.
Matthews and Mrs. Diver were mar
ried by Justice of the Peace Quinn.
The story of the issuing of the mar
riage license and of the wedding was
telegraphed to the papers in the East.
and il was in one of these that Mrs.
Gurney read of the matter. 1t imme-
diately occurred to her to write TO
the authorities in Oakland for further
informatio She also addressed let
ter to James Matthews, but this was
returned to her by the postal authori
ties, and she inclosed in 1t a letter to
Wuthe.
Mrs. Gurney wrote that she was
given into the hands of strangers at
the time of the Civil War, when she
was a mere infant, and that she did
not remember her parents. She said
that she had a letter that gave her
fathers name as James Matthews and
her mothers as Mary Matthews.
Mrs. Gurney wrote that she was the
mother of two children of her own
and had four stepchildren. She also said
that II was the dearest wish of her
life to find her parents, If they were
alive.

MARTINIQUE ISLAND
IS NOT PROSPEROUS
Depression Caused by the
Great Volcanic Eruption
Continues in Force

Consul Chester W. Martin reports the
island OF Martinique as not prosperous.
He says it has not recovered from the
depression caused by the great vol
canic eruption that overwhelmed the
most important parts of the island. He
writes:
The present low price for sugar. the
principal product for export makes the
cultivation Of sugar cane unprohtable
Rum is manufactured in large ouanti-
ties and is second in the list of ex-
ports. Cocoa is grown to some extent,
but the exports do not seem to be in
creasing. I find that the imports from
the United. States are falling or in
some lines, and not increasing enough
In others to maintain the maximum
total The imports of -four were 29 per
cent less than In 1904, rice 80 per cent
less, corn 13 per cent less. Cotton seed
and kerosene oil show a small increase.
Lard, beef. pork. butter and oleomar-
garine show an increase, while lumber
shows a falling off of nearly one mill
lion because of business depression.
None was imported from other coun-
tries.

Company operates the only regular line

The total imports during 1905
amounted TO s2,S69.5 .502, OF which the
more important articles were: Dry
