Especial Correspondence Of the Starr
WASHINGTON, May ga com
mittee of Wholesale grocers, repre-
senting practically the entire list of
large firms engaged in selling sugar
to the retailers, has been flooding the
United States with blank petitions.
urging the recipients to have them
signed and forwarded to members of
congress. Accompanying the petit
lions is an article by f. c. Lowrey.
secretary of the wholesale grocers'
committee. from which the following
extracts are taken:
'The per capita consumption of
sugar in the United States last year
was SIG lbs, so that it is apparent
that this excessive tax bears heavily
on all of our people. The average
family of five persons, this amounts
to AS pounds of sugar annually,
costing at the average retail price of
say &C per pound, makes the sugar
bill alone $24.4S. AS the price of
refined sugar is increased nearly &c
per pound by the tariff, it is evident
that the increased cost Of this single
food product, to the average farmer
or worker, due to the tariff, is over
$500 per year.
while sugar cane is grown in the
Hawaiian Islands, Porto Rico and the
Philippines, no one pretends that the
100000 consumers in the United
States are being taxed nearly two
cents per pound or $15O,OO0, 100000
yearly on all the sugar they use, to
enable the sugar producers of these
Islands to make excessive profits. We
are therefore being taxed solely for
the benefit of the Louisiana and do
mestic beets sugar producers, who
supply ony $3.50 of our requirements.
The former have for many years ca
tered to the interests of the sugar
trust, and the domestic beet sugar
industry is controlled by the trust
AS matter of fact, the sugar trust
and their friends have been the sole
benefciaries of this excessive tariff
"The Hawaiian Islands produced less
than 149o of the amount of sugar
which we consumed last year., and
it is estimated that they have reached
the limit of their producing capacity
AS these sugars come in free oul

planters to sell their sugar at a cor
responding high price. Not only do
the sugar interests of these Islands
make large profits, but the sugar
trust also benefits. The sugar inter-
ests Of the Hawaiian Islands are or
ganized, and do not sell their sugars
individually, but for many years have
had a contract with the sugar trust,
which provides for the latter to pur-
chase from them on the following
basis:
"On raw sugar shipped to New York
or Philadelphia, they pay 1-1Oc under
the prevailing New York price the
day of arrival. On the raw sugar ship
ped to San Francisco, they pay CSC
under the prevailing market price in
New York the day before the arrival
of the sugar in San Francisco. In
making this arrangement, the sugar
trust argued. In shipping to San Fran
cisco, your cost is less THAN it is
in shipping to New York, and you
must sell us at a corresponding con-
cession.'
These raw sugar supplies are re-
fined in the trusts San Francisco re-
finery, and when selling to the trade,
the trust reverses their process of
reasoning with the Hawaiian planter
To the trade they say: "The value
of our refined sugar is fixed by the
New York price, plus the freight to
the Pacific Coast" For this reason
refined sugar f. o. b. San Francisco is
quoted anywhere from soc to 75c per
hundred over the New York quota
tons. By this simple process of rea-
soning the Trust in their San Fran
cisco refinery obtain their raw sup
plies from Hawaii at 371ac per hun
bred under the New York raw sugar
quotation, and sells it's refined sugar
at not less than SOC per hundred over
the New York quotation on refined
sugar, netting not less than 871ac per
hundred, or $3.50 per ton OVER THE
ORDINARY REFINING MARGIN.
Last year the consumption of sugar
through San Francisco was 241 1885
tons, so that it will be seen that this
difference alone made a neat EXTRA
PROFIT of $4,234, 1880 which comes
out of the pockets of che consumers
in addition to the normal amount of
profit for refining. The excessive
protection is not justified here"

ROME, Oct. S0.-Commenting on
the significance of the pope's decision
to grant America four cardinals, some
assert that the way is icing paved
for the advent of an American pope
It is pointed out that the largest body
of Catholics in the world live in the
United States and it's possessions.
Not only are American Catholics
greater in number, but they are deep
in religious feeling, piety, loyalty to
the Holy See, and in wealth and gen:
erosity. An 1rish-American pope is
suggested for the day when it shall
be considered no longer necessary for
the papacy to be held by an Italian.
WASHINGTON Oct. 3O.-Monsignor
Diomede Falconio, the papal dele
gate, who has been elevated to card
inal, along with Archbishops OCon-
nell of Boston and Farley of New

WASHINGTON Harbor.

When Potomac Park southeast Of the
railroad bridge shall be improved SO
that Washington awheel and afoot may
comfortably'visit there it will open up
q new and comprehensive prospect of q
part Of Washington's harbor. Washing
toms harbor embraces a wide expanse
Of water and q long line Of river
frontage. But that part Of the harbor
where steamboats, most frequently
come and go is the Washington cham
mel. 1t is the business part Of the har-
Dor, and at times there Is congestion.
The completion Of that part Of Potomac
Park which lies opposite tho Wash
ington channel will give an extensive
and satisfactory view OF the shipping.
On the city side Of the channel one can
get only glimpses of the harbor front,
but from the park side he will see It all
at one glance. Steamboats,. mostly
side wheelers. and all OF them painted
white. line the central section Of tho
city front. Along the upper walls are
schooners ana sloops from many near
and far-pR places. The river Is closely
dotted with pleasure craft, sail and
