are refining partially their raw sugar
right at the plantation itself"
The extent of this additional out
put, Mr.. Spreckels testified, was from
$4,000 to 10000 tons annually.
The Honolulu plantation. Mr..
Spreckels declared, sought to sell all
its sugar in San Francisco and con-
tinually cut prices to do so. He said
1t was equal In purity to his own sug-
ar.
Mr.. Spreckels said that the output
Of sugar coming In from Hawaii ar-
gregated more than 100000 tons ana
this year would reach 100000 tons.
when sugar came in free from Ha-
wall and from the Philippines" Mr..
Spreckels testified, ut did not affect
the price, but the consumer got nd
benefit thereby and the planter did"
Mr.. Madison-We have had free
sugar from Hawaii since 1876, have
we not?
Mr.. Spreckels-Yes; I understand
that the treaty went into effect then.
Mr.. Madison--Do You think chat
the world level of price would raise
If, as matter of fact, we wiped out
our beet sugar industry here?
Built Up Planters, He Says.
Mr. Spreckels--"I do say that It
would not make the sugar any cheap
err to the consumer, because. taking
the instance of Hawaii, in the year
1876 | happened to be down there for
year. and knew the conditions ex-
listing at the time. The production of
the entire islands, at the time when
the treaty went into effect. was 10000
TONS. They have raised It today up
to about 100000 tons, stimulated by
what? BY the duty that they got, and
by the sugar being admitted free
There you built up that country, ami
you built up those planters, and with
out any material benefit to the citi-
zens of our own country"

HOW OPIUM ring
IS OPERATING
Continued from Page y


prepared for smoking has been made
evident by recent seizures in places
on ,,hipboard totally unsupported and
the existence of which would never
have become known had 1t not been
for information obtained by Chief
owing to a tip received by Federal
officials from the same source, $50 five
tael tins of prepared opium were
seized yesterday on the steamer 81
IBERIA. Captain Feeder commanding,
which arrived from Hongkong on July
G. The contraband plant was found In
specially prepared compartment in
! the coal bunkers under 500 tons of
coal. The value of the find at the pres
ent Chinatown market price Of s25 per
tin is $4,000, and Captain Feeder will
be asked to pay a fine equal to that
sum under the customs regulations.
! Customs Inspectors John T. stone
Joseph Head and John Toland worked
during the whole of Thursday night
! shoveling the 500 tons of coal out OF
the way before they could reach the
compartment. They were relieved yes
terday by Inspectors Enlow. Huffaker
and Benninger, who have been ordered
/ to make a microscopic examination OF
| the ship.
Special Agents OF the Treasury
] Bean and Tidwell have been informed
that this lot OF opium has been under
I the coal for several months, owing to
emptied during that period SO that the
members of the crew In the smuggling
ring could not get at the opium. TIL,
agents have also discovered that the
| pric. of opium fell as law as $40 pei
tin about two months ago. but that
since the seizure of 1sl tins on June %
In the bilge bottom of the Nippon Maru
the price has advanced to s25 per FIVE
tael tin.
There Is no doubt now in the minds
of the Federal officials that large
quantity of opium has been Struggled
into this port and the port Of Honolulu
during the last two years by the cum
ming members of the crews Of the ves-
sells carrying the stun, and that small
quantities of the drug were concealed
In places where the Inspectors would
be likely to search for IT, so that II
might he supposed that that was all the
drug on board. and that the real ex-
tent of the rings operations might not
be suspected.
1T Is believed, furthermore, that
large quantities of opium have been
surreptitiously landed in Hawaii dur
ing the last twelve months at time
when the price was $40 tin. and that
It vas successfully shipped into this
port on board of coasting steam ant
sailing vessels. 1t Is regarded rs Pc
culiar circumstance that no attempt
was made to search such out of the.
way places as water butts and Goa
bunkers until the tip was passed from
Honskong to the authorities here"

Mr.. Spreckels-It would be very
difficult for me 10 say.
The Chairman-Can you give |, to
us In round numbers now. and you
can supplement IL later. II you desire.
Will 1t amount TO sl,OO0,OOO, would
you say?
Mr.. Spreckels-No: | do not think
It would amount to that.
The Chairman-Is that anywhere
near It?
Mr. Spreckels-Since have come to
think about 1t, IL is considerably less
than sl,000,0OO.
In reply to long series of ques-
tions Mr.. Spreckels said the -four
plantations are among the smallest
In Hawaii. The Kilauca, he said, pro-
Guces about 5000 tons of raw sugar;
the Hakalau, about 1000 tons; the
Waimanalo, about 5000 or 6.00G tons;
and the Hilo, about 10000 tons. The
entire output comes 10 the Western
Sugar Refining Company, at San
Francisco. Contracts also exist, he
said, with many of the Independent
planters. His company, he said, oh
tains about 60 per cent Of the entire
Hawaiian output. He testified that
no sugar was received from the Fac
tor Company. They will not give us
any portion of their output" he said.

MILLER ER-MARCHETTI: In Patter-

the home of Judge Cohen, John F.
Miller of this city, to Rosa Catherine
Marchetti, formerly of this city, but
recently on visit to the old home in
Italy, Judge Abe Cohen offic ating.
Mrs Bessie Gamble, who is travelling
in the east was present at the cere-
mony. We have rereived copy of the
Patterson, N. j. Call in which is an ac-
count of the ceremony written in hap
by vein which we copy below:
"Here comes the bride. She was Miss
Rosa Catherine Marchetti. Her father
is wealthy Italian gentleman who
owns a sure enough castle with per-
COLA and gas range Rosa came to
this country to visit her sister, who
lives at No. 212 West Fiftieth Street,
New York City. Rosa, the judge says,
is beautiful. She is one of those bru-
nette ladies with limpid eyes; a grace

silver bells sounding their soft carol on

The groom is a sturdy westerner,
John Franklin Miller by name. Owns

ruler OF the Nevada Elks.
He loves Rosa madly, passionately
and devotedly, and arrived from the
West on Sunday to call upon her at
her sisters home, Yesterday John
Franklin Miller and Rosa came to this
city to look at the falls. They were
accompanied by a newspaper woman,
Mrs. Bessie Gamble who is a sob sister
on the Chicago ter-Ocean, and de-
voted friend of Rosa's.
After looking at the falls the senti-
ment of the scene began to make itself
felt. There was the snow white water
so like a bridal veil-tumbling down
in riotous confusion and spreading its
lacy lingerie around the feet of the
sunless chasm, and then streaming on
ward to the seas (copyrightedD. There
was the iridescent spray transformed
into rainbows as it hung, lover-like,

The splendid new mission style
school building, probably the hand
soonest in the state of Nevada, will re-
ceive its dedication Monday morning at
900 when the fall term opens. Suffi-
cient room has been handsomely fitted
up to accommodate the grades as we'll as
the Clark County High School. The
grades will occupy three rooms up
stairs in the north wing and one room
down stairs.
Prof. A. S. Henderson, who was at
the head of the schools last year when
it was necessary to endure the draw
backs of Inadequate quarters, will be
at the helm the coming year, having
the pleasure of being the first principal
in charge of the new building.
He will have as assistants Miss
Florence Squires, who has taught in
the Vegas Schools two years Miss
Boombower, who has taught two years
in Eureka, Nevada, and her sister,
Miss Lenore Boombower, fwho taught
previously in San-sLuis Obispo Co.,
Cal. Both young ladies are graduates
of the California State Normal at San
Jose and are said to have excellent
records as teachers.
The High School will be in charge of
Prof. Chas E. Overman, who was last
year principal of the Goldfield schools,
and comes to us with the highest re-
Communications. He will have as his
assistant, Miss Mabel A. Lester, a
graduate of the Iowa State Normal,
and for two years past instructor in
music, English and history in the
schools of State Center, Iowa. Miss
Lester comes excellently recommended
and possesses in high degree the
qualities which should make her work
very successful. Three rooms on the
second floor in the south wing have
been nicely furnished for the work.
Las Vegas age. [volume] (Las Vegas, Nev.) 1905-1947, 1911-09-09

There will be an assembly and study
room fitted with comfortable modern
school desks; another room has been
fitted for combination recita-
tion room and laboratory, while the
third will be for the use of the teach
erS.
The laboratory is equipped with tab
let arm chairs and IL foot laboratory
table with acid proof top with complete
equipment for all high school science
work. Prof. Overman assures us that
the facilities for laboratory work are
second to none in the state. All nee
cessary reference books for the use OF
the pupils have been purchased and in
add: Hon,to this . handsome new piano
has been purchased and will be in place
within few days
The people of Vegas are to be con-
graduated on the splendid school ia
cilities which they have secured,
and the school board on the final cul-
mination of work which from the be
ginning has been beset with trials and
tribulations.
From this time forward Las Vegas
can hold ont AN invitation to the people
of outlying communities to send their
children here assuring them of beauti-
full surroundings, and everything in the
nature of equipment and advantages
that any other city could offer.
