With regard to the agreement which has
been arrived at for dealing with the years
Queensland sugar crop the Prime Minister
to the war and drought and the operations
of the Food Prices Boards in the various
States, q most serious position had arlsen
with regard both to the sugar industry in
Queensland and TO the sugar supplies for the
whole Of the Commonwealth. The FEDERAL
Government and the Queensland Government
had, therefore, drcided to cooperate for the
benefit Of the consumers Of the Common
wealth and for the protection Of those en-
gagged IN the sugar industry Continuing, the
Prime Minister saId:
The agreement provides that the Queeus-
land Government is to acquire the entiIe
sugar production of Queensland for 1915 at
somewhere in the vicinity Of Els per ton for
raw sugar, and the Commonwealth Government
is to sell it for the citizens Of the Common
wealth, and to use IT'S powers to do all Things
necessary to place the sugar on the market
at the Commonwealth expense and at the
lowest possible price. This infringement
should be hailed with satisfaction by sag,t
growers Of Queensland as a practical solution
of the difficulties which they bpge been
experiencing, and the stability of the indus
try will thus be assured; els per ton viii ot

1t is no exaggeration to say that the clos
ing Of the Panama Canal for an indefinite
period, which may extend at least until enrlY
ia 1916, has its reflex in thousands Of com
munities Of the Western Hemisphere. Sugar
from Hawaii for Atlantic coast refneries and
TOR Europe, also canned and dried fruits, all
sorts of cargo for South American ports and
return shipments for North American CON
sumption; and vast Quantities Of munitions
and railroad equipment for Siberia, all are
affected by the Reorganization OF ran
sportatiOn consequent upon the earth slides

the two ships were so close together
that the Eitel had to pass right across
our stern.
''Then l saw my chance. 1 didn't

we'll send the German down along with

Willerby began to back in good form,
and the commander of the Eitel saw
the danger. The imprisoned passen-
gers on the Ethel saw it, too, and a
panic seized them. Poor chance they
would have had if trouble came to the
Eitel Friedrich. They were locked up
below at the approach Of every strange
ship, and there was no escape in sight
for them. Their cries of fear as the
panic took them first told me that l
was not dealing with an ordinary ship
Of the navy.
"The Eitel's commander was talking
to us with all the English he could
command. His guns had been uncov-
cred and unslung as he approached us
in the first place, and they swung to-
ward us as we backed toward the Ethel.
But at that close range they could
hardly have stopped us before we did
our work. The commander of the Eitel
probably knew that, too, for, while he
threatened to fire many times, he did
not do so.
"'Stop or we fret he shouted from
his bridge, but my engineer merely
nursed his engine. The imprisoned
passengers on the Ethel were making a
loud noise by this time, and it seemed
that the end was near, but somehow
we could not get up Roadway, and the
Eitel at last slipped past our stern,
missing us by about fifteen feet. After
that there was nothing we could do.
