900 has been paid to Armitage for
which. II is alleged, he has refused
an accounting and which he is
charged With converting to his own
use.
The filing of the bill for an ac-
counting caused a sensation today In
court, circles. Holt is large prop
erty owner and the allegations OF
conspiracy" in the charges are
startling.
Mr.. Armitage was asked by the
Bulletin this afternoon for a
statement, but declined to make one.
referring the questioner to his attor-
pey, Il. G. Peters II did not hear OF
this until was going on the stock
exchange this morning. and immed.
lately turned the matter over to Mr..
Peters" he said
Attorney Peters said In response to
a question that he Is not ready to
make statement yet. "The affair is
so involved that | could make no
statement now" he said. 1T Is the
outcome of a long series of relations.
We shall file our answer as soon as

Assuming that the $3.50 tons OF
sugar sell for $1,000 net per ton in
New York, the gross net sales will
amount to $l6S,75O.0O. 8 per cent of
this is sS.437.OO which sum is equiv
alent to $3.75 ton of sugar rental
for the land and water, and 1927 per
acre per annum for all the land
and water, or sl4.O6 per crop acre
with water.
As there is no certainty that we
VIII have undisturbed possession of
the land and water for "a period of
time longer than to cover say a plant
and possibly one ratoon crop, we are
naturally forced to plant as much of
the land as the quantity of water will
allow which will be $50 acres.
Now assuming that We had taken
a lease on the first of January of this
year. had cleared, plowed and plant
ed $50 acres, by the end . OF next
-month tJulyl. The cane from this
would be harvested In the spring OF
the year OF 1913, and is estimated to
yield 5000 tons of sugar, In the sum
mer OF 1913 the same $50 acres would
he ratooned and harvested In the
spring of 1913 and should yield 1876
tons of sugar
So between the LIST OF July 1911
and June 30 OF 1915, or In four years.
there may be harvested from the land
and water 5.5i5 tons of sugar. which
If sold for $1,000 would give a net
gross sales OF sils.125.OO. Five per
cent of this, amount is s26.9OG. 25,
which. sum diylded by four gives
$5,22j,OO, the AMOUNT we should nay
per annnm as rental for the use of
the $50 acres pr cane land with a
daily flow o 100000 gallons,
s5.225,OO divided by T50 acres gives a
yearly rental Ter acre for the $50
acres of cane and with water of
$685..
The rental of 100000 per year
recommended by the Governor seems
to be compromise between $S,437 90
and $5,225OO perhaps due to the I'M
certainty of the tenure of any agricul
tural lease the Government may make
under the law.

II the lease were for 10 years with
out the danger OF interruption or re-
vocation, taking into consideration
the quality of land. climatic condi-
tons and the fact that at least one
fourth (one-third would be better) of
the land should be bare fallow at all
times, In the interest OF good hus-
bandry, the enclosed crop and water
plan would be adopted, whereby there
would be harvested each year from
1890 acres of land 600 acres, 800 of
which would be plant and 300 long
ratoon. The 300 acres of plant are
estimated to yield 1900 tons aud the
800 long ratoon 1850 or total OF
1850 tons from the 600 acres.
With the 1900 acres are leased

water which amount is equivalent to
a yearly flow of 1920 MILLION gallons.
sufficient to ensure the cropping OF
each year 600 acres of land, as the
accompanying table will illustrate.
During those months when less
than 100000 gallons of water day
are required, the surplus is conserved
to make up the apparent deficit for
those months when both the senior
and junior crops 9re under water.
In order to determine the annual
rental for tract of land with water
such as Kappa. where 1t is not pos
sible on account of the quality of tho
land to crop annually more than
3Ih per cent. which necessitates
Keeping rs per cent constantly under
cultivation and irrigation, II would
seem logical to charge as yearly rent
al an amount which is equivalent to
n certain per cent of the gross sales
at market OF the sugar annually pro-
duced from the combined area of land
and water leased.
With this assumption as basis and
taking 3 per cent of the sales of the
sugar capable of being produced an
nually from the total area and guam
tity of land and water, the annual
rental to be paid for the lease under
consideration may be determined us
