CALCUTTA, India The question
of constructing a reservoir across the
Cauvery so as TO develop within the
Mysore state, which has lately been
the subject OF arbitration between the.
Madras and Mysore governments, has
been under consideration for over 40
years. &c.
Some prominence was given to il
in 1902 by the scheme for the hydro.
electric installation at Siyasamudram,
but IL was not until five years ago
that distinct move was made by the
drawing up of a project for a reser.
syoir at Kanambadi costing 40 Iakhs
of rupees, about f2,s50,O00. The only
objection to this scheme being car
,ried to the stage of practical action
was. however, the exorbitant and pro-.
hibitiye financial outlay.
Fresh surveys were accordingly
made, and in 1911 a combined project,
estimated at 253 lakhs, nearly f1.700,-
900, was submitted to the govern
ment. This made provision for q
dam 124 feet high, capable of storing
a depth OF 1lS feet of water, or A.

We have paid 100000 in dividends

Our mill Is old and not up to the

best results, and your directors feel
that under the new conditions con-
fronting them every energy must be
strained to produce the best economic
results and they find 1t necessary that

the mill up to the highest efficiency
possible. believing this to be wiser.
policy than to disburse the present
surplus in dividends.
with the above in view the board
of directors has authorized the placing

an estimated cost of $46, 500.
1T is the belief of your board that
the above amount OF money will be
recovered in short time from the,
extra amount of sugar recovered from
the cane.
The company now has on hand
more than 1900 head of ranch cattle.
Owing to seIni-troDical climatic
conditions. live stock deteriorates very
fast In the Hawaiian islands and 1t Is
necessary from time to time to intro
tduce new breeding stock from the
coast.
There is a great demand for good
beef IN the Hawaiian islands, and
there has recently been purchased

will go forward to the ranch very
shortly as a nucleus for q new and

We viii also purchase in the near
future sufficient new Hereford bulls

The tunnel work Is progressing
very satisfactorily, 76S feet having
been completed to the 1st of October,

The directors OF Hutchinson Sugar
Plantation Company have, decided 70
discontinue the payment Of dividends
for reasons set forth In letter Of the
president 10 stockholders. The com
pany, since its organization, has re-
turned S3,I50,000 in dividends TO the
stockholders, or considerably more
than the teal capitalization, amount
ing 10 $2,500,O00.
The question Of a future resump-
ton Of dividends depends in large
measure upon the flow of water ex-
pected from the tunnel that Is being
driven for that purpose. AS all earn
ings In the past have been derived
from unirrigated lands, source OF
ample water would greatly change
the outlook for the company.
Like all the Hawaiian sugar plan
tations, Hutchinson has been ably
managed and kept unusually free
from high finance or pyramiding OPP
erations. It's stock represents sound
values. II Hutchinson cahnot return
to dividend basis IT VIII be because
sugar planting Is no longer profitable
IN the Islands without tariff protec-
ton Just how the plantations will
work out on basis of free sugar only
actual working experience under the
new conditions can determine.
The letter to the stockholders fol-
lows:
"At a meeting Of the board Of d.
fectors held on September 20, 1913, It
was resolved to discontinue the pay
ment Of dividends after the dividend
payable on October 10. 1913. The rea-
sons for the discontinuance of the
payment OF dividends are as follows.
: "The price per ton we have re-
eeived for sugar sold to date for the
1913 crop has been very low. To
October /, 1913. we have received pay
ment for 3468 tons Of sugar at an av-
erage net price Of $57.45 per ton, and
the prospects for the balance of the
1918 crop (some 1000 to 1900 tons Of
sugar. are that we win not exceed
the above figure, 1 e.. $57.45 per ton
sugar net.
Comparing the above net proceeds
with three previous crops, we have
the following figures:
1913 crop as above -. .$57.45 per ton
1912 crop as above 1892 per ton
1911 crop as above. 77.lS per ton
1910 crop as above. -. 71s02 per ton
From these figures you will see
that TO October /, 1918, we have re-
ceived SASS less per ton for our
sugar than the average price received
for the l912;1911 and 1910 crops.
The very low price we are receiv-
ing for orr 1913 crop Is caused by
the enormous worlds crop Of 1913,
being some 2,270.000 tons of sugar
over the 1912 crop.
According to last reports, the pres
ent visible supply Of sugar in the
world is about 1.372,000 tonsan ex.
traordinary. large amount Of sugar
Adding this visible supply to the
tonnage OF the 1915 worlds crop,
which is estimated at approximately
$4,000. 900 tons of sugar, It would APP
pear that we cannot expect any inn
pr0yement in the price Of sugar for
the coming. - months.

While the high price of platinum
in the United States in 1912 encour-
aged prospecting for this rare metal.
the production in that year was but
slightly larger than that of the pre-
eeding year. According to David T.
Day of the United States Geological
Survey, the output Of crude platinum
in 1912 was T21 ounces, compared to
62S ounces in 1911 With the excep-
ton Of "a small yield from the New
Rambler copper mines, in Albany
County. Wyo., the entire domestic
production came from California and
Oregon. The greater part of the Cali
fornia platinum was obtained as a
by-product in gold dredging in Butte,
Yuba, Sacramento and Calayeras
counties.

the first seven months ct the present
year were valued at f.2.640,S5S, 900, as
