PROFESSIONS AND PELF

The appropriate and well deserved
celebration last week Of the eightieth
anniversary of the birth OF one Of the
most eminent physicians Of this city pro-
voked some profitable but too often
neglected reflections upon the place, the
service. the regard and the duties and
obligations of what are still called the
learned professions in our social econ
omy. Time was when those professions,
then strictly three In number, were
sharply differentiated from all other oc-
equations in preparation for them, in the
practice OF them and indeed in all re-
spects. In later years, however, n pro-
nounced change has occurred II the
number of pure professions has not been
increased. there have arisen various
other callings which are partly profess
sional and party commercial or indus
trial and which form connecting links
between them and the business world,
SO that 1T has become difficult to draw q
distinct line of demarcation between the
two. Indeed, certain amount of profes-
slonal knowledge has become almost in
dispensab bic in most businesses, while the
business spirit has 10 considerable ex-
tent invaded and imbued the professions.

.ATCHERLEY STIRs
UP USUAL RUMPUs
Coast Lepers Will Mutiny Unless
Sewer and Voice Doctor
Can Treat Them.

SAN FRANCISCO, june s.-Mem-
bers of the leper colony, in their desire
to have DR.. John Atcherley returned to
them to administer what he claims is
cure for leprOsy, are prepared to
mutiny. They have written another
letter to the supervisors, setting forth
in detail their grievances and the hor-
rors of their condition, saying they are
kept locked cway at the Isolation Hos
pital and away from their loved ones,
/ just for the sake of filing up the
pockets of grafters."
They take sly dig at DIR. George
Lee Eaton, president of the board Of
health, who has been active in oppo-
sition to Atcherley and his treatment,
and intimate that they will leave the
colony in a body if Atcherley and his
remedy are not restored to them.
They also ask that the supervisors
issue an order to the board of health
prohibiting it from allowing anyone
who has anything to do with the small
lpox patients from entering the leper
ward, saying that smallpox is known
to be both infectious and contagious,
while lepr0sy, according to medical au-
thority, is neither. In part the letter
reads:
H'We make this, our last appeal, in
the name of humanity, and If you do
not grant it we will then help our
selves. We have committed no crime,
and therefore We have every right to
leave this place, and we know of no
law that eompels US to be locked up
here. One of US has already left. We
have consented TO remain here out Of
pure moral feelings for the rest Of the
healthy community with the expecta-
tson OF receiving treatment at the same

we are, from medical treatment, as we

SUGAR CONDITIONS REVIEWED
IN WILLETT 6 GRAY CIRCULAR

willett & Gray's sugar circular was
received by yesterdays mail and de-
votes a good deal of space to the Cuban
and Hawaiian crops, The following
paragraphs are from the circular:
Raws.
Statistics of the week are important,
especially as relates to the Cuba crop.
From an analysis of the week s reports
-2S eentrals working, receipts $4,000
tons, and stocks cabled yesterday as
normal on estates-it is new reasonable
to expect that the visible production
for the remainder of the campaign will
be at least as much as for the same
time last year, say 1s9,5s2 tons. If
this quantity is added to the visible
production, this season to date 1870, 900
tons, it will indicate a crop this year
of 1889 tons; therefore, we now ex-
pect total production of at least our
maximum estimate, l,750,O00- tons.
We are rather congratulating our
selves on the conservatism of our Cuba
crop estimates throughout this season.
While estimates have been jumping
about from 1,s50,00O tons to 1,4O0, 900
tons, highest and lowest, we started
the campaign October 81, 1909, with
our estimate of 100000 tons, which
we have consistently maintained, only
varying by introducing, on February
10, 1910, a maximum 1,750000 tons
and a minimum l,650,000, until this
present. We shall now simply add to
the visible from week to week, as
above.
This week under review shows 1895.
per Id. advance in spot quotations,
which is the only quotable change in
figures. The market, however, has
shown much greater activity than pre-
viously and sales for shipments particu-
larly have been liberal and have includ-
ed spectators here and Europeans as
buyers.
The speculation is for higher prices
later on, the sugar going into ware
house in meantime. Europeans paid
2.90c. to 2.92c. per h., f. o. b. Cuba,
for centrifugal. Spot and near by
sales were at 4.24c. to 4.27c. per h.,
basis landed, June clearance at 2.94c. G.
& f. (4.3Oc.), and I'd half June at &c.
C. & f., 90 test, with an early July
saley of 90 to $4,000 bags at &c., f. o.
b. Cuba, 90 test, for the U. K.
With their large present supplies of
raws beyond the present outlet for the
refined product, refners are increasing
their MEETINGS and storing the refined
for future increased demand, SO that
from now on the figures of consumption
will include considerable amount of
invisible stock above the normal, but
not in the hands of the trade. This
accumulation will also act as hedge
against the time looked forward to
when the offerings of raws may be re-
duced and higher prices asked.
The strength of the European beet
sugars during the early part of the
week should have given quite a bulge
upward to our market, but had only
the effect of increasing activity at
.03c. advance and checking the de-
clining tone of the market Beet
sugars touched on Monday the highest
point of the campaign thus far: los.

MAN THREATENS WIFE
WITH BORROWED GUN
Drunken Husband Attempts to
Emulate Crimes of the
Past Week.

George Kalilikane was yesterday
morning arrested on a warrant sworn
out by his wife charging him with
threatening language. The man re-
turned home drunk late Monday night
and rudely awakened her ordering her
to get something for him to eat. While
she was preparing the food he called
her to look around and she did 80 to
look into the muzzle of revolver.
She gave scream and ran from the
room. The couple live in Kakaako and
she went at once to the Kakaako Mis-.
sion asking p. w. Rider to call for the
police. He did so and an officer arrived
soon afterwards. When he reached the
house, the man ha6 secreted the gun,
which incidentally he had taken from a
neighbor. He finally promised to be
good and let his wife alone.
Yesterday morning, however, no got
up and reiterated his threat, saying
that he was going out TO get drunk
again and come homo and shoot her
After that she swcre out the warrant
