Soon afterwards an automobile Drew

walked toward the entrance Thank

upon the senator to wait a few min

state campaign had been arranged
about as brilliantly as the SausalitC

Especial Correspondence OF the STAR
San FRANCISCO, June 1.-Some OF
the details OF the recent tour OF La
Toilette are just coming out and they
show that the senator made a most
valiant fight in California with practi-
cal.y no organization and what there
was OF one was scarcely worthy of
the name. Just because of the manly
fight La Toilette put up against these
Gods he gained many votes, and there
were innumerable people who said
they would like to have voted for him
had they thought he stood the least
chance.
1t was a hard blow for La Toilette
when he had his organization perfect
ed with the governor and his workers
ardent.y campaigning for him, and
then suddenly without warning have
almost the entire organization jump
on the Roosevelt bandwagon without
so much as a farewell. Thereafter
the Wisconsin senator fought losing
battle and he knew it, but he fought
on through California, spreading hif
doctrines and principles, and without
attacking his former friends who
dumped" him, though his heart mus
have been bitter with the unceremo
NOUS way in which he was deserted.

Brazil is now and has for many
years been the chief source OF the cof-
fee imported into the United States,
OF the S75 million pounds imported
last year, 651 million pounds were
from Brazil, as against 224 million
from all other parts of the world,
chiefly American countries. The sec
ond largest source of our imported
coffee is Colombia, SIS million pounds,
followed in order by the Central
American states, SO million; Venezu-
ella, 40 million; the United Kingdom,
% million; Mexico, rs million; the
Dutch East Indies, million; Haiti
and Santo Domingo, million; the
British West Indies, 2 million; Meth
erlands, 2 million; Alden, " million;
Turkey in Asia, 1-3 million, and Ger
many, l million pounds. Less than 10
million pounds, it will be observed,
are imported from Asia, even includ-
ing the arrivals from European coun-
tries whose exported coffee is, presum-
ably. largely the product of their Ash
attic colonies.
The average price of the coffee inn
ported into the country has greatly
increased in the last few years. Dur
ing the present fiscal year 80 far as
elapsed the average import price has
been 13c per pound, as against 10c
in 1910, and SIC in 1903. Present
import prices are still, however, some
what below the high level which pre-
vailed in the period 1890 to 1896, when
the average import price ranged from
14c to over Ice per pound.
Domestic consumption per capita
reached its highest total in 1902, 1894
pounds. as against pounds in 1891,
lOh pounds in 1901. and 9A POUNDS
in 1911.
Porto Rico and Hawaii are the only
portions OF the United States in which
coffee is produced and from which it
is exported in any considerable
amounts From Hawaii the exports
to foreign countries last year aggre-
gated about l million pounds, and the
shipments to the mainland about 2k
million. From Porto Rico the exports
to foreign countries in 1911 amounted
to "a million pounds, chiefly distrib'
uted to Cuba, 90 million pounds
Spain, little over s million, and Aus
tria-Hungary, France and Italy, each
about million pounds. About a quar-
ter of a million pounds OF Porto RicaH
coffee were shipped in that year Il

Following is an article from the
u. S. Geological Survey reports,
which suggests the question for vol
canologists of whether the coolies
of sulphur constantly pouring up from
the environs of Kilauea volcano might
not be commercially utilized:
The production of sulphur and
pyrite in the United States in 1911
scored a marked increase over that
for the year previous, according TO
w. G. Phalen, of the United States
Geological Survey, in an advance
chapter on sulphur, pyrite, and sui
phuric acid from the volume Mineral
Resources OF the United States" for
1911. The report also includes a
statement concerning the sulphuric
acid industry, which during the year
produced over two and one-half milli-
on tons of acio.
In 1911 sulphur was produced in
Louisiana, Utah. and Wyoming. The
principal producer was Louisiana, but
in both Utah and wyoming the output
in 1911 was create" than duIing the
preceding year. The production Of
sulphur in the United States in 1911
amounted to 265,664 long tons, valued
at S4,787, 049, a substantial increase
both in quantity and value compared
with 1910. 1t is estimated that the
production for 1911 is very close to
the present rate of consumption in
this country. Ten years ago the Unit
ed States imported practically all Of
the sulphur used as such in her in
dustries, but in 1911 the importation
was only 29,144 long tons. In the
same year 2S,109 long tons was ex-
ported. The excess of imports over
exports amounted to only 1041 long
tons in quantity and to $7416 in value.
There can be but one Interpretation
of these figures-namely, that the
United States is providing ample sui
phur for her domestic needs. AS a
matter of fact, in a recent article on
the sulphur industry in southern Lou
isiana it was stated that the output Of
the mines located there is limited
only by the market demand.
Pyrite Industry Prosperous.
The production of pyrite in the
United States in 1911 amounted to
299,9O4 long tons, valued at $1,162,261

an increase of 5S,292 long tons in
quantity and of $1S4,2S3 in value com
pared with 1910. These figures are
the maximum ever recorded by the
Geological Survey for the pyrite in
dustry. Though low-grade sulphide
ores of copper containing considerable
quantities of pyrite and pyrrhotite and
zinc-sulphide concentrates have been
used in recent years in the manufac-
ture of sulphuric acid, the output of
pyrite has shown a great increase
during the last five years, which has
been a time of rapid development of
the by-product sulphuric acid industry
Large sulphurlc Acid output.
The output of sulphuric acid in 1911
amounted to 2,6SS,456 tons of so deg.
Baume acid. Compared with the fig
ures of the censuses for 1899 and
1904, this shows increases of great
magnitude. A comparative diminu-
ton in the value of the acid in 1911
is worthy of note and is of great i'm
portance, because of the extensive
use of sulphuric acid in the manufac-
ture of other products.
Utilization of Sulphur-Bearing Gases.
The gases and waste products is
suing from the fiues of shelters,
blast furnaces, and so forth, are made
up chiefly of dust, the oxides of sui
phur, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen.
The oxides of sulphur, Oh account of
their deleterious action on vegetation,
have caused almost endless litigation
in some parts of the country where
they were formerly allowed to pour
forth into the atmosphere. Various
methods have been adopted to over
come the evil effect of sulphur diox-
ide, but they have met with only
partial success. In view of this fact
processes have been devised whereby
these waste sulphur gases may be
converted into sulphuric acid or into
sulphur. Sulphur gases are converted
into sulphuric acid at Ducktown,
Tenn, and process of separating
sulphur from such gases has recently
been tried experimentally at Campo
Seco., Cal. sT se'F'
| The report on sulphur, pyrite, and
sulphuric acid may be obtained free
from the Director of the United
States Geological Survey, Washington.

COFFEE IMPORTS OF THE
UNITED STATES AND SHARE
OF THE WORLDS CONSUMPTION

More than one-third of the 2Js bill
lion pounds of coffee annually enter
ing the International commerce of the
world is consumed in the United
States, its imports of that article be-
ing twice as much as those of Ger
many, three times those of Neither
lands, four times those of france,
nearly ten times those of Great Brit
ain, and half as much as those of all
Europe, next to the United States the
great coffee-consuming section of the
world.
The worlds leading importers of
coffee, according to the latest official
far received by the Bureau of Stats.
tics, Department of Commerce and
Labor, are: The United States, S75
million pounds; Germany, 404 million;
Netherlands, PCS million; France, 245
million; Austria-Hungary, 127 million;
BE, GUM, 95 million; the United King
dom, IS million, and Sweden, 65 MILL
on. Italy, Norway, Switzerland and
Denmark also consume considerable
quantities, ranging from 40 to 25 milli-
on pounos each. OF the countries on
the western hemisphere, Argentina
and Cuba each import about 20 MILL
on pounds per annum; Canada, about
million; Chile, million; and Uru-
quay about million, while Australia,
the island continent, consumes be-
tween 1 " and million pounds per
annum. Certain of the African coun'
tries are comparatively large import
ers of coffee, the imports into Egypt
averaging about Is million pounds q
year; the Cape of Good Hope, 20 mil
lion, and Algeria, about Is million
pounds.
While the United States is the
worlds largest consumer OF coffee
the imports have not increased during
recent years. In the fiscal year 1902
for example, the imports aggregated
1901 million POUNDS; in 1905, 1048 mil
lion; in 1909, 1850 million; in 1911
S75 million; and in the present yea
will probably aggregate approximate!
500 million, or considerably less thai
the annual average of the period sine,
1900. In 1871 imports of cofe'
amounted to 31S million pounds; il
1881, 455 million; in 1891, $40 million
in 1901, S55 million, and in 1911, 81
million. Cocoa has to a large exten
supplanted coffee as an American beN
erage, the imports having increase
from 81 million pounds in 1871 t
over 140 million pounds in 1911.
The worlds leading coffee-producin
countries are, according TO the DepaF
ment of Agriculture: Brazil, "a bi
lion pounds in 1909; Venezuela, 9
million POUNDS; Mexico, so million
Colombia. 92ls million; Porto Rico. 4
million; Haiti, Al million; Dutch Eas
Indies, 35 million; British India,
million; Arabia, 1874 million, an
Abyssslnia, 10 million. The world
supply in 1909 aggregated nearly
billion pounds, but in 1910 fell belo
billion pounds, due to decrease (
about $50 million pounds in the e
ports from Brazil.

SMALL TOWN SCANDAL.

Crown Point is excited over one OF
the most shameless scandals that the
county seat has ever known. There
is but one topic of conversation there
and it is woven around the very clods
of the grave.
wives tell their neighbors, the young
men of the town discuss the latest
details, girls whisper It to each other,
the liveryman tells 1t to the grocer
and the atmosphere is surcharged
with scandal.
And as might be expected when
these stories are published by word
Of mouth instead of In the public
press, which is held responsible for
what 1t says, the stories have become
exaggerated or distorted according
to the gossips who relate them
The men seem to be just as gossipy
as the women. A well known Crown
Point man was involved IN the
scandal by the wilful untruth of an
other and upon discovering the
author of the gossip compelled him
to send out 100 letters denying the
truth of the canard he had circu-
| lated.
! The scandal has reached the Aft
davit stage. number of reputable
citizens whose names have been
draUu into tho oAoir bovo oo~.-oJI - :
others to make an affidavit to the
effect that they were in no way com.
promised.
1t is safe to say that the mora
tone OF Crown Point has been reduc-
ed twenty-five per cent by the uni
versal circulation of this scandal. the
exaggerations of the story and by tn,
scurrilous remarks that It has elicit
ed. No man knows when he is SAT,
or when his name will next be con
nected with the affair.
: The attractiveness of the place a
residential district has been dis
counted by the fact that no one feel
safe from the attacks of scandal
mongers. No one wants to live in
!, place where he is compelled to pro
tect himself against baseless sland
[ ers.
And this calls attention to the fac
: that small towns often have a lowe
standard of morality than the large
cities. That is; there are NOR
scandals, per capita, than in the bi
| cities because of the hushing up {
these stories.
