On the 1st inst. stock on the whole island
added up 1878 tons, of which about
115, 900 were already sold and are being
loaded and cleared as fast as allowed by
shipping possibilities there remaining for sale
only $4,000 tons, which may probably be
increased to 100000 and at the utmost 10
10000 tons by the proceeds of the few
plantations that still continue grinding in the
eastern region Of the island, as stated above,
and whatever small lots still remain On plan

1t is probable that prices will |e hereaf-

cents per pound, for c and f., which latter

has at last come to an end, for it has raine I
during the past week more or less abundant
ly over u large part Of the island and mas
much as said rains were accompanied by the
electrical discharges and high winds proper
to the rainy season, it is to be supposed that
this has definitely set in for the year.
At the beginning of this month there we're
only rs plantations still active, and inasmnch
as some five or six have since relinquished
work, it may be said to-day that the number
of those on which sugar manufacturing has
not as yet come to an end does not exceed
20, the greater number of which are located
in the eastern region of the island and pro-
badly a few of those which have stopped
grinding on account of the rain and still
have some cane left, will resume work as
soon as fine weather sets in again.
Grinding having come to an almost total
standstill III most of the leading sugar manu-
featuring districts, planters and colonists are
taking advantage of the moisture in the soil
to devote oil the hands they are able to dis
pose of to the planting OF their fields with
cane, and as a large area had been previous

with great activity in most districts.
The recent rains have revived sugar pro-
ducers' hopes, for he hardness of same in
setting in this year, Commenced t. impart
to them serious fears regarding next years
crop. and in the few districts in Which it has
not as yet sufficiently rained to proceed to
cane planting, planters continue preparing
their fields in expectation of the rain.
Results of the crop ut Cienfue90s-Grind-

locality, though a short one, it has been dis
posed of at an average price that exceeds
by 20 per cent that at which the previous
one was sold the yield of the cane III su gar
has also been higher than last year. since q
larger quantity of sugar has been obtained
from the same amount of cane, because it
was sounder and ripper tAan customary, ow-
ing to the drought, and WAS crushed during
the most favorable period of the year.
The ideal that the Cuban producer has al
ways pursued is that Of limiting the crop to
four months, from January l to April 81, which
are equivalent to about 100 working days
Such ideal is well founded, because the sac-
charine richness Of the cane Is defective pre-
vious to January l owing to the gre4une5s OF
the cane, and after April 80 the excess of
moisture, together with q higher tempera-
ture, causes the juice TO be in an abnormal
state and exposed to fermentation, with the
inevitable downfall of the yield. Of course,
the general rnle is not without exceptions
originated from the a~tmosphe'icaI phenome-
ma, which change oftener than is convenient
to agriculturists at lafge.
The final result of the campaign now near
ing it's end throughout the island has been
less uufuvourable than expected for
although the shortage i'll the quantity Of
sugar produced has been large, the increas-
ed yield of an equal tonnage Of cane, consid-
erably reduced sai} shortage, and if " cal

in the production, the difference III The value
of the crop will be only 20 per cent less
than last year. Though this difference III
the value Of the crop is serious, much moro
so is the dif1idence that prevents capitalists
from investing funds in agricultural pursuits.

the huge central factory "Chapalra" had
turned out $4,000 bags Of sugar and it is
likely that it's total output will be about
$50, 900 bags, provided the weather that
hereafter prevails allows it to bring to good
avail the totality of the cane still standing in
it's fields.

VENEZUELA AND MIR. RUSSELL.


Venezuola's capital, Caracas, Is moro diff
calf Of access and communication than It
his been at any time in a generation, and
t.ere j. grave question whether cables sent
from there by diplomats get through to
their governments. The American Minister,
Sir. w. w. Russell, who reached this city
yesterday on the Red D steamship Caracas,
declared last evening to a HERALD reporter,
when seen at the Waldorf Astoria, that 1t
has been almost impossible for him to cable
to Washington within a reasonable space OF
time.
Of the illness at La Guqyra that has
caused SO many quick deaths Mr.. Russell
has little knowledge, but he feels certain
that the precaut ous taken locally have pF6-
vented it from spending throughout the
South American ren9bic.

Work and Won en-.

For the first time in its history the
United States Supreme Court has re-
Gently been called upon to decide the
right Of State to regulate the work
ing hours of adult women. A law of
Oregon limits these hours to ten in one
day in factories, mechanical establish
ments and laundries. Curt Miller, a
laundryman, attacked the constitution
atty of this law, which was, however,
upheld by the Oregon Supreme Court in
1906. The decision Of the Federal SUI
preme Court. to which the case was
appealed, will substantially determine
the constitutionality of all laws re-
stricting women's working hours in the
United States. Such laws have been
enacted in nineteen States. the earliest
in Massachusetts in 1874. the latest
more than a generation afterwards.
These laws are not the result of an
ephemeral public whim. but deliber-
ate public purpose One of the leading
members of the Boston bar, Mr.. Louis
D. Brandeis, generously volunteered
his services as associate counsel in ar
guing at Washington this Oregon case.
Mr.. Brandeis also submitted brief
which is of extraordinary interest, in
that it brings before the court the ac-
tual facts at issue in this case-that is,
the effects, physical, moral and econom-
ic, of regulating women's working
hours.-The Outlook.

Learn to Shake Hands.

One does not need to grasp the hand
in a death-like grip, but there is some
thing about a good handshake which is
the silent interpreter of welcome. A
person possessing a great deal of per-
sonal magnetism may just take your
hand in his and the cordial welcome is
recognized without even so much as the
slightest pressure of the fingers
Others may have good grip, which is
more like clutch. There is not set
rule for handshaking unless person
bears in mind that handshaking must
be feeling expressed with the hands
and not the eye or voice. If only done
through a matter of form, there is no
earthly use of shaking hands at all.
Strong intuition serves a great many
persons, and to grasp a cold, clammy
hand, which lies like a piece of marble
in ones hand, is to make a big-hearted
person feel like he had come in contact
with the wrong party.
