Board Of Supervisors.

The Board of Supervisors met for
their monthly meeting Wednesday,.
Routine business occupied the atten-
tion of the board on Wednesday
On Thursday, the matter of signing
a new contract with the Island
Electric Company, which has taken
over the franchise of the Maui
Electric company, came up for con-
sideration.
At the last meeting of the board,
new contract was presented, but
the board objected to several of the
clauses therein, and the matter was
referred to the county attorneys
department for adjustment.
The correspondence between the
county attorney and Mr.. Bond,
head of the Island Investment Com
pany, was read, in which Mr.. Bond
takes occasion to score Mr.. Case,
for what he terms his arbitrary atti-
tude in the matter. This accusa-
ton seems to be absolutely unjust
and unfounded, as the county at
torney and the board of supervisors
to a man, express themselves as be-
ing most desirous to do anything
within reason to secure electricity.
They, however, express themselves
just as strongly against signing any
contract, which they think will be
to the detriment of the taxpayers of
the county.
The county already has contact
with the Maui Electric company,
which is not transferable, and as
that company has not been disin-
corporated, new contract cannot
be signed.
The board has also authorized the
sheriff to buy new automobile for
not more than SO, 700.

Higher
Wages
The Benefits Of New Scale TO be
Far Reaching.

The new and increased wage scale
decided upon by the sugar planlers'
association and affecting the sugar
industry of the entire Territory, is
even more far-reaching than at first
supposed. 1t has been learned that
the schedule as announced-an in
crease of pay for all ordinary day
laborers on an S1S month basis to
500 a month, aud sliding scale
bonus system-is simply a mini
mum scale, and that individual
plantations and arrangements can,
and some will, extend the applica-
ton of the bonus to much higher
paid employees than those affected
by the minimum scale.
The sliding scale bonus just
adopted applies to all laborers re-
ceiving S24 month or under and
working at least twenty days a
month for twelve months. This,
however, does not restrict planta-
tions which wish to reward en-
ployes receiving more than S24 a
month, and it is reported that one
big group of plantation will find the
benefits of the bonus extended to
laborers getting much more than
this.
AS a matter of fact, a $24 a
month man would under some con-
ditions be getting more, with the
addition of his bonus, than man
on higher regular wage scale who
did not get the bonus in years Of
high sugar, and the inequalities Of
such system are apparent to some
Of the big sugar men, who, by
making it certain the new scale is a
minimum and not a maximum,
are preparing to equalize the bene-
fits of high sugar throughout their
laboring forces.

Rough
Experience
Japanese Fisherman Come TO Grief
Off Hama Coast.

The fishing sampan Kasuga Maru,
belonging to Kihei put in at Hama
last Monday with a load of fish. The
japanese instead of setting about
disposing of their fish as soon as
they arrived, as is their usual Gus
tom, tied their boat to the Claudine
buoy, and began accumulating Jag
in celebration of the New Year.
During the night, after the jewellers
were beyond the power of discern
ment, the rope broke from continuous
chatting on the buoy. The sea was
running high and the first thing the
Japanese knew they were awakened
by tremendous crash and rushed
out to find their boat smashed to
pieces onthe rocks.
The boat was literally broken up
with the impact on the rocks, and
the engine, u line new Atlas, of six
teen horsepower, went through the
boat to the bottom.
There was about $500 worth OF
fish on board, and all this was lost
besides the boat.
Some native divers, about seven in
all, undertook the task of:recovering
the engine, which they did, lifting
it from the bottom without any ap-
pliances other than own buoyancy
and getting it ashore. They received
S13O for their work in recovering
the engine.
The Kasuga Maru was new boat,
we'll equipped for fishing, and one
of the firest sampans in these
waters.

attitude among sugar men today is
one of expectation. They want to

A N NeW
Process
Which if Proven May RevOlutionize
the Sugar Industry.

Cuba is seriously threatened, ac-
cording to the chamber of commerce
of Santiago de Cuba, which has just
petitioned that heavy export duty
be levied on blocks of desiccated
sugar cane as exported from the
Preston estate, on Nipe bay, in
Oriente.
Alarm has spread to Havana.
Foreign consuls are investigating,
in order to report authoritatively to
their home offices. If the desicca-
ton process is thoroughly successful,
manufacturers say it is difficult to
overestimate the revolutionary effect
it will have. They declare that
Cuba will become one vast cane
field, but its factories, in which
5000, 100000 is now invested, will
disappear.
The desiccation process was tried
on a small scale in Wisconsin about
two years ago. A large plant was lat
er erected on the United Fruit Com
pany's plantation at Preston, in
Santiago de Cuba province. This
plant has a daily capacity of 400
tons of pith and fiber. The cane is
thrown into a hopper, from which
it is fed to shredder. After shred
ding, the fiber and pith are conveyed
to drier, where the water is ELI
minated by evaporation, leaving
the dry fiber and pith containing
the sucrose. The fiber and pith
are then baled for shipment. The
sugar is afterward extracted by a
process of diffusion, and it is assert
ed that by this process all of the
sugar in the cane is obtained, leav-
ing the fiber and pulp in the form
of cellulose, which can be used for
the manufacture of paper.
1t is contended that the greater
recovery of sugar increases the re-
turn on each ton of cane by so, and
there is, an additional SO or 81 on
every ton in the value of the cellu-
lose. Blocks of this compressed
fiber and pith were displayed at
Cuba's last national exposition.
Experienced sugar men at first
viewed this process with contempt.
The company, which is now
working according to it at Preston,
has maintained silence, neither an
swering attacks nor explaining
methods.
In connection with this process of
desiccation of sugar cane, the fol-
lowing dispatch from New York,
detailing an interview with pro-
minent sugar man in that city is
also of interest.

ever afterwards good citizen, and a
loyal friend to Key West. He was a
man of sterling worth. honest to a
fault and ever considerate Of the
faults Of others not so well endowed
with strength OF character as him
self.
Captain Phil's career was a notable
one. Entering the light house serv-
ice 7th L. H. District in 1873, he
rapidly rose step by step until he be-
came an authority on all matters per-
tanning to the service and was rec
ognized as an expert on maritime
matters especially on the entire coast
of Florida. He commanded numerous
vessels Of the service, notably the
Arbutus- Laurel and Mangrove, and
