REAL COMPETITION.

serious factor which will have to
be recioned with in Western Pacific s
plans is still severer water competi-
tion via the Panama Canal when that
is completed. At present the Western
Pacific, and in fact all the lines oper-
ating to the Pacific Coast, are feeling
the water competition more severely
than was believed possible when the
Western Pacific was conceived. The
American-Hawaiian Steamship line
which formerly operated around the
Horn has, since the double-tracling of
the Tehuantepec Railway, been operat.
ing to and from connections with that
railroad. This competition has cut in
half the Southern Pacifc's rates be-
tween the Pacific Coast and the East.
Wool, for instance, which was formerly
carried for one cent per pound, is now
carried for one.half cent per pound.
The American-H Hawaiian line operates
eighteen boats and touches at most
ports on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts.

In the season Of l9O9.lO tho produe.
ton Of sugar beets was 40.615.ss3 tons.
and the production for 1901 is esti-
mated at 5O,3s9,7O0 tons.
There are 1891 beet sugar refineries
in operation in Europe and last season
the production of these refnories
amounted 10 6.Os1,945 tons of beet
sugar, and the production this season
is estimated at 1906, 200 tons.
Germany, Russia, Austria and France.
in the order named, produce nearly
ninety per cent of the total production
of Europe.
Consul General Henry w. Diederich
Of Antwerp has prepared a statement
of the total cane sugar production in
the world the amount for last season
being $4,000 tons, and for this sea-
son estimated at $500 tons.
The production of sugar beets in the
United States for this season is esti-
mated at 3,5S42 PCS tons and in Canada
100000 tons. It is also estimated that
the production of beet sugar in the
United States will be $4,000 tons The
production of beet sugar in Canada is

Such are the prospects in the sugar
fields of the world that there may be
expected n total crop of 100000 tons
Of beet sugar and $4,000 tons of cane
sugar, amounting in all to 16.419299

and two days before reaching Nagasaki
were considered bad ones. The voyage
across was uneventfuI, one death being
recorded. This was a former clerk

the Macondray company. He died of
tuberculosis, having stayed just about
a year too long in the Philippines.
The troopship carries $50 enlisted
men of the army, all easuals; thirteen
enlisted men of the navy, seventy-one
enlisted men of the marine corps and
six military convicts. The first-class
cabin passengers numbered eighty-one,

NOT FOR CHARITY,
BUT FOR JUSTICE
Hawaiian Bands Request for an
Increase Is Put Before
New Board.

The matter of increased pay for the
Hawaiian band came up before the new
board of supervisors last night, and
was referred to the public expenditure
committee. Mayor Fern, in submitting
the following letter, stated that he
would like to see the request granted,
but did not exactly see just at the pres
ant time how the board could do 80.
The promotion committee had also writ
ten letter asking the board if they
would do something to try and bring
1ack to the land its old standard and
sfaeiency, and this he handed in with
the band 5 request.
RIO appeal of the band follows:
ITO the Honorable Mayor and Board
o. Supervisors of the CITY and
County of Honolulu.
"Gentlemen:-We, the members of
the Hawaiian band, take the liberty Of
addressing few lines to you on behalf
Of our band. As you know there would
have been no band here had it not been
for the Hawaiian musicians, who, until
recently, have stuck TO the public band
service for the past forty years, and
have given general satisfaction, as
musicians.

LONDON SUGAR MARKET.

The London Grocers' Gazette, No
vember 26, says: After our last re-
port +. o. LIGHT issued his revised es-
innate of the beet crops as 1884 900
tons, against the factories second esti-
mate of 100000 tons. AS these two
totals run so close together, and we
may be assured that the factories have
not overestimated their prospects, it
seems pretty certain that these figures
are minimum, and that we might get
nearer to the 100000 tons than mod
crate people have up to the present
thought possible. The market has not
been depressed by this news, because
bears have already operated on the pos
sibility of an 100000 ton crop, and
everyone now waits for a pressure of
actual sugar, which is not likely to be
felt until we begin to get well into
next month.
