CONCERNING COFFEE MARKET

The Unfortunate Conditions the
Brazilian Government Has Caused
by it's Attempt.
After a years trial of the scheme
of certain states of Brazil TO raise the
price of coffee by taking 5000 oC0
bags off The market, coffee is lower
than for a long time past, and accord
ing to Deputy Consul-General Slechta,
Of Rio, there is a prospect that the
government corner will come TO grief.
1t would have been better, ii seems,
let the price of coffee take care OF IL
self, since in that way the coffee-grow-
er would not be tempted, as now, to
grow big crops. Now, says the Deputy
COnsul-General, every planter is nop-
ing against hope that every crop ex-
cept his own will be small" The
state of Sac Paulo has placed heavy
taxes on the extension Of coffee plau-
tations, hoping thus to curtaii produc-
tion and enable the syndicate to work
OF the cornered surplus, but the plant
er counteracts the governments we'll
meant effort by intense culture, aim
i.g to produce more on the same acer-
age. The available supply July LIST,
1908, is estimated at 25,400,000 bags:
the worlds annual consumption. Is
named there will be left over 7,600.00G
syndicate holdings. Assuming that
consumption increases 500,0 900 bags
yearly, and that production remains
what it is, it will take years for the
1900, 600 bags outside the syndicate to
be used up, and the 100000 bags held
by the syndicate may by long keeping
so deteriorate as to unstable. As
many millions Of money were borrow
ed in Europe with which to finance
the corner, it's failure would produce
it Is feared, results dangerous for the
International peace Of Brazil.-Balti-
