NEW YORK, August 23-That a

I am working on a table of figures or

these tables will require six months

California Versus England.

SoAA4 VI LID SCAouo 11lSlduu
Jellies and jams are fifty per cent
sugar, and the canneries can not afford
to put them up in competition with
eastern and foreign products Besides
the enormous handicap of the tariff,
they are working against a one-half
cent a pound discrimination in the price
of sugar which the eastern Gamers en-
JOY from the trust.
The result is that California has not
nearly the production of fruit that it is
capable of raising, and as for jams and
Jeilles it can not compete with England,
which does not raise a tenth of the
fruit it exports. But England has free
sugar. 1t imports its fruits from Medi-
terranean ports and its sugar from the
East and West Indies. converts them
into preserved products and has an
enormous market throughout the world.
England is able to buy apricots, for
instance, in America. transport them
across the Atlantic, convert them into
jam and then ship them back to the
United States in competition with the
output of this country.
Free sugar would mean that California
could enter this market now enjoyed by
foreign trade, greatly increase its acre
age of orchard land and fill a demand
for much more fruit than it now finds
profitable to raise.
If the duty on sugar were removed
The price could be reduced two cents a
pound.
The argument of the tariffmakers is
that the duty is necessary to protect
the sugar industry of the country. 1t
is the SUGAR truSt aroUinu for its enOT-
nous profits. In California alone, for
an illustration, it has been shown that
the State pays dollar for dollar more
for protection than the total value of
the domestic-rased sugar.

MARINE BARRACKS WILL
BE BID UPON AGAIN

Attorney F. f. Thompson, who is
connected with the big local contract
ing firm of Lord Young Company, re
turned from san Francisco yesterday,
bringing news that the specifications
for the marine barracks building and
officers quarters to be built at Pearl
Harbor will be offered again 10 the
contractors for bids, the specifications
having been scaled down so that bids
can be within the appropriations alot,
ted for all the buildings, which is less
than 100000. He bad a talk with
Colonel Denny of the marine corps, who
is now stationed at San Francisco, and
received this information. The Lord
Young Company win be a bidder, and
the firm expects to get the contract.
In the first bidding the Lord Young
Company was the lowest bidder. but the
figures were in excess of the appro-
priatiOns. 1t was a case of where the
specifications called for certain mate
rails and methods of construction and
the figures could not be made to meet
the demands
The revised specifications will be
ready the middle of this month, and
the advertisements will call for one set
of barracks and five sets of officers
quarters

Double Time for Hawaiian Service

In a letter to the Army ana Navy
Register, 81. Y. NJ says: Referring
to the annual report of the commanding
general, department of California, it IS
noted that he has recommended thai
troops serving in Hawaii be given
double time for service there. This is
an excellent recommendation and merits
the appreciation of every enlisted man
whose lot it has been to have served IN
Hawaii. Double time is now allowed
for Alaskan service and was allowed
the army of Cuban pacitication. For
some unknown reason 1t was never al
lowed in Hawaii, although conditions of
service do not warrant any difference.
This matter should be brought to the
attention of the department, first, on
account of the dissatisfaction which has
ALWAYS existed, and, second, to promote
the interest of the service. 1t is to be
noted that but few organizations ever
served in Hawaii; therefore to allow
double time to those who have served
there viii he a nominal expense only.
tn until 1909 not more than four or
five companies were stationed there
Those who served after annexation
should surely receive the same allow
ances as those who went to Cuba IN
1906 and those who are now serving IN
Alaska. Since it is proposed to keep
a large force in Hawaii, 1t would be
to the interest of the war department.

DRINKING NOW
 IN BACK ROOMS
No One Need Go Thirsty Under Gaynor Rule In
 New York

New York, Ap-il 25. observers of the excise situation who have been watching with interest the working of Mayor Gaynors plan of enforcement on the few Sundays during which it has been in operation have now come to the conclusion that it is. little if any harder for any one with the price to get a drink in New York on Sun day under the Gaynor regime than 1t was before. But there is far less open drinking. Drinks are now served at tables in back rooms. It is also de- sirab1e that the applicant for illicit re- freshment shall not look like a de tective.
 to the other yesterday this was the sit uation. Everywhere bar rooms were exposed to view, and a stranger in the city might have. have decided decided thai r New mt.
 In only one respect did last sundays excise activity on the part of the force appear to have an effect, and that was in the strict observance of that clause of the excise law providing for the ex- posture of all bar rooms as vacant. It is probable that not a dozen saloons violated this section of the law yes terday.
 Not far from South Ferry is one of the best-known saloons in the whole city. For years this place has served it's customers on tables in the barroom, the bar being inclosed on Sundays with canvas. Yesterday, TOT the urSL time in years, no drinks were served there. Instead, customers had to go into the restaurant, adjoining, and or der a drink there.
 In Broadway. not far distant from 10th street, is another place almost as widely known. Besides the bar exposed to public view Sunday, this has another somewhat smaller bar, but just as. much a bar, over which for years drinks have been served on Sundays. Yesterday afternoon cus7 toners were requested to seat them selves at tables and have their drinks brought to them.
 In the Harlem district, few saloons were not doing business. The Bronx was wet, too, in spots. In Richmond thirty-six affidavits had been turned in at o'clock, and it was said that the number would probably be double when the full report of the days work was received. Last Sunday Richmond produced sixty-three afhdavitS.
 In Manhattan the earliest reports came From the old West Twentieth street station, at the lower edge of the Tenderloin; and the Charles street tions. Forty afddavits were turned in at the old West Twentieth street sta ton by o'clock and the expectation was that the number would be at least fifty when they are turned over to District Attorney Whitman this morn ing. The Charles Street Station, which is the centre Of a large saloon district reported only two affidavits last night. Further uptown, the West Thirty-seventh Street Station report ed seven.
