Money Spent for Coffee.

1t may be said, broadly, that the
American people spend more than
$500, 600 a year for sugar and more
than $2O0,OOO,OOO for coffee. Every in
crease of l cent a pound in the price
Of sugar increases the expenditure at
the rate of $7O000,OOO a year, and
every advance in the price of coffee
adds a burden of millions of dollars
Both of these commodities are now
selling at the highest prices reached in
many years, but neither tariff, trusts
nor railways can be held responsible
for the situation. While there proba-
bly, is, in both cases, some enhancement,
the underlying cause is crop shortage,
failure of supply to meet demand, says
the New York Sun.
The price movement of sugar and
coffee affords an excellent Illustration
of the operation of a force somewhat
too frequently overlooked or disre-
garded by politicians.
The advance in sugar was due to the
partial failure of the European beet
crop, the source from which nearly one
half of the world s supply is drawn.
The advance in coffee is due to a short
crop in Brazil, whence comes about
quarters of the world s coffee sup
ply. The average shipments from that
country are about 100000 bags of
1873 pounds each A recent report gives
the 1910 shipments at less than 10000
600 bags

SITUATION IN CHINA.
Believed the Throne win vacate

Believed the Throne win vacate.
Picking Shi Kai and the gov
eminent have exchanged kilograms.
Yuan has agreed to come to Picking to
discuss the situation, but he adheres to
his resolution not to accept the pre-
miership. He is expected to arrive
Monday and an audience with the re-
gent has been arranged.
The American legation does not be-
heve Yuan Shi Kai has yet advised the
throne to abdicate, as some reports
stated, but he may do so later. Yester-
day Yuan sent a message TO the govern
ment from his home in Changtefuz. He
then proceeded to Cheng Tow on the
Honan railway. where he conferred
with a deputation from the Honan as
sembly endeavoring to dissuade the
delegates from the proposed declara-
tam of independence of the province
which, he said would damage the
throne s position.
The fact that the man on whom the
government depends more than any
one else is coming to Picking has caused
a general feeling of relief and of hope
that he will evolve plans to end the
present chaos. 1t is understood the
court will remain in the Forbidden
City, realizing that their departure
now would be fatal. 1t is also under
stood the throne is willing to accept a
pension and retire to Jehol, if safety
is assured. Prince Ching, the acting
premier, does not desire to remain in
office, but he continues to support the
regent, who has no other trusted ad-
wiser.
Kaifeng in Sore Straits.
The situation at Kaifeng, Honan
province, is serious. The governor S
family left for the north last night on
special train. The governor remains
at Kaifeng, but does not sleep at the
yamen. Foreign refugees who have ar
rived here from Tai Yuenfu, Shansi
province, report that no foreigners have
been harmed, but the governor and his
wife and 30 Manchus have been be-
headed.
The rebels are maintaining order and
the new arrivals say their administra-
tion is excellent The whole province
Of Shansi is supporting the movement.
Mukden and Newchwang are con
nected by defensive societies consisting
of troops and civilians. The conditions
prevailing in these places practically
amount to independence.
