TWELVE HUNDRED
MULES ARE COMING

The Examiner of July contained
the following interesting bit of infor
nation.
Twelve hundred mules, whose total
value is $25O,OOO, will be shipped out
of Oakland within the next sixty days.
This is undoubtedly the largest single
shipment of mules ever made from
this country. 1t will take place from
the Moore-Scott shipyards, Oakland. in
the British steamer Waitemata of the
Union Steamship Company, Australia,
which will be remodeled by the ships
carpenters.
The mules will be taken to the Cali
fornia Sugar Companys plantation in
the Hawaiian Islands, and also to the
Fiji Islands. The animals are now at
Stockton awaiting transportation.
The Waitemata is perhaps the larg
est vessel ever locked in Oakland har-
Dor. 1t has a displacement of $500
tons. The ship is being fitted up with
electric lights, modern ventilation and
other conveniences for the big task of
livestock shipment.

WILLET7 & GRAY'S
LATEST LETTER

Willett & Gray's latest letter, con-
tanned the following concerning the.
market for raws.
There is nearly a complete recovery
of prices.
The improvement begun last week
continued until 4.30c. was paid for
spot Centrifugals, basis SO degrees
test and Sc. c. &c. f., equal to 4.36c. for
Cuba Centrifulgals, shipment second
half July, at which large sales we're
made, sugars in the latter position
being taken by both refiners and
spectators.
Thus far, the recovery in two weeks
from the low point of Alto. for nearby
sugars Is 0.13c. and the indications are
that we may soon record a further ad-
vance of .06c., which will make the
spot quotations 4.36c., or Sc. c. e f. for
prompt shipment of Cuba sugars, the
previous high point. On this basis
holders are likely to offer freely, as it
is a sort of sentimentary figure and a
good one for producers, but most of
the remaining available sugars are in
strong hands and when the scarcity
of supplies during the next three
months becomes more fully realized
refiners will doubtless be obliged to
pay still higher prices.
Sooner or later America must i'm
port moderate quantity of Javas, or
other full duty paid sugars, to keep
the refineries working until the next
Cuba crop begins to come to market,
for which we must compete with Euro
pean buyers, who will also be eager
for supplies.
The scarcity is now more noticeable
in Europe also, and as instances of
this is shown that in Germany and
Austria there were on June LIST avail,
able for exports only 492,39S tons,
against 652,349 and 7O1,sS5 tons on

OIL PRODUCTION
IN CALIFORNIA
Says an exchange:

Says an exchange:
The prospects are that the produc-
ton of petroleum in California this
year will be about two and third
times greater than it was four years
ago. The yield in 1906 was 32,624,0O0
barrels, in 1907 in was 4S,306,OO0 bar
rels: it reached 4S,3O6,OOO barrels in
1908, grew to 5S,5OOOOO barrels in 1909
and will be something like 100000
barrels this year. The fact is, the Cali.
fornia wells are producing already
much more oil than the current de-
mand iustifies. This overproduction at
the present time is said to be no less
than 10000 per diem, and, consequent.
ly, there is demand for storage of the

SHORTENING OF
SUGAR CAMPAIGN

NEW YORK, June 2S.-Operating
periods in the beet sugar manufactur-
ing industry are gradually shortening
in this country as we'll as in Europe. In
Germany the average campaign for
factories within the past few years
varied from SO to so days; in 1S94-95
average campaign was SO days. AS far
back as 1905 the average exceeded
121 days.
Conditions in the United States are
similarly influenced by the labor sup
ply, periods of harvesting raw ma
terials and cost of keeping enormous
central factories in operation for ma
nufacture of the raw sugar. These ele-
ments of expense put a premium on
short campaigns by encouraging con-
centration and the provisions of FACT
lities for making the maximum output
in the minimum of time.

ORIGIN OF MONEY
FOR MAHUKA SITE

President Morgan presided at the
meeting of the trustees Of the Cham
Der of Commerce held yesterday after
noon and presented a letter from Sec.
rotary Mcclellan giving in detail the
scheme by which money would be
procured for purchasing the remain
ing half of the Mahuka site for Fed
eral building purposes. The general
facts in this matter were sent in here
by cable and have already been pub.
lished.
The matter of putting up $4,000 to
$1,000 for the entertainment of the
National Editorial Association in 1911
was finally dropped, the Chamber not
feeling justified in making the expen-
diture. The editors viii hold their con-
vention in California, and proposed to
come on here in a body ror a visit
provided Honolulu should foot the
hill.
Although the chamber drops it as a
purely chamber matter, it is under
stood that members of the body will
cooperate with the Merchants AS
ISOLATION, Promotion Committee and
perhaps other organizations with a
view to securing the visit of the big
body of scribes.
A wireless was received from Larz
Anderson, a member of the Secretary
Dickinson party thanking the cham
Der for entertainment in this city.
Messrs. Bottomley, Paxton and
Klamp were appointed a committee

valuable surplus. There is no ques-
ton as to the ultimate use of every
barrel of it. The probabilities are, in
deed, that the demand will catch up
with the supply in a short time and
that new wells will have to be opened
The tendency is directly toward the
employment of crude oil as substi-
tute for coal in the making of steam.
1t is confidently expected, for instance,
that within five years every railroad
west of the Missouri will be equipped
with oil-burning locomotives. Economy
in operation, it is held, will compel the
Change. The Southern Pacific and the
| a. I'll h,,ts
ing locomotives some time ago, and
tie Hill roads and the Western Pacific
are now preparing to follow the eX-
ample. Experiments looking to the
use of crude oil on warships are being
prosecuted under the auspices of this
and other governments. This very
matter of a surplus supply may pro-
badly hasten the change which many
experts regard as inevitable. The one
objection to the use of oil round by
the railroad and steamship manage
ments and heads of navy departments
heretofore has been uncertainty as to
the permanency of supply. If it shall
| be possible for the oil producers to
store a surplus great enough to assure
a steady supply for a reasonable length
of time there is scarcely a question as
to the abandonment of coal and the
use of crude oil in its stead for steam
making on large scale everywhere.
Viewed in the right light, there is
really no overproduction of oil in Cali
fornia. 1t is essential to the future
prosperity of the oil trade and to the
welfare of the interests depending
upon an oil supply that great surplus
shall be constantly maintained.
