Sugar Breaks All Records But One.

sugar breaks All RECORDS but Une.
st. Louis, June ). Sugar is
higher priced now than at any
time since the civil war. save for
q few months in 1889, when pri-
ces slightly higher than those
prevailing now were in force.
Ten or twelve pounds are sold for
81 now with prospects, according
TO a st. Louis sugar broker, Of
even higher prices before Christ
mas.
Most of the sugar consumed in
the United States comes from
Cuba, Hawaii. Porto Rico and
the Philippines, with the burden
of production on Cuba. Now the
allies, who had been buying their
sugar from Germany. Austria and
Russia prior to the war, are for.
ced to draw on the islands for
their supply. In previous years
all the sugar made in the islands
has been consumed by the United
States.
ALLIES HAVE ADVANTAGE
Sugar from Hawaii. Porto Rico
and the PHILIPPINES can be brought
into the United States free Of
duty, but on that brought from
Cuba there is duty Of / cent a
pound. This gives the allies a
margin of | cent a pound in their
competition with sugar buyers
from the United States. 1t also
causes the allies to buy most Of
their sugar in Cuba, as in the
other islands they are obliged to
buy on an equal footing with buy
ers from our country.
Although all the sugar raised
by Cuba is cane sugar, the prices
of beet sugar in the United
States have kept parallel in the
increase with the prices of cane
sugar, II is a sympathetic
raise, and results from the fact
that beet sugar becomes more
appreciated as cane sugar goes
higher.
PRICES DOUBLED.

now are $3.50 a hundred weight

Dirt, NOT ACIDS,
CAUSED Ships
BREAKDOWN

Dirt, and not acide thrown into the
boiler tubes by members of the crew
believed to be German war-plotters,
caused the Hill liner Minnesota to
break down off the Lower California
coast a few weeks ago, according to
the San Francisco papers.
Grease, dirt and much scale found
in the boiler tubes of the steamship
were responsible for the vessels
breakdown, federal inspectors work
ing ON the case said. The examina.
ton continued but without expectation
of finding further evidence of what
stopped the Minnesota off the Lower
California coast en- route from Seattle
TO London
At the time of the accident, c. w.
Wiley, marine superintendent of the
Great Northern, asserted that the
blowouts were caused by foreign mat.
ter in the boilers and suggested acids.
The crew of the Minnesota were
given shore leave several days after
the liner reached San Francisco.
Since the arrival of the vessel in port
officers and crew alike were kept
aboard for almost a week pending the
completion of the federal inquiry.

 Secretary Lane, of the depart ment of interior, has announced the establishment of a land indus trial department. This department will act under the control of the Engineering commission.
 Andrew Christensen, of the gov ernmen: land office at Washington, b. c. will be made manager of the new Skagway enterprise. MT Christensen is thoroughly acquaint- cd with every activity in Alaska He knows the ins and outs of this great territory, as a boy knows the detailel mechanism of lis pet kite, MT. Christensen was sent by the government to Anchorage to dis pose C the land in that vicinity It was he, who conducted the auc- ton sale of the government land.
 Wo.hng from his head office in this ci,y he will handle all the gov ernmeut lands along the goyernmen railroad system to the westward.
 It will be the duty Of this new department to examine and report to the department of interior all conditions of land in this and oth- CT sections of this territory.

Experiment Station

It is altogether possible that an agricultural experiment sta ton will be established at Skag- way. Certainly this is the logi- cal place for such m institution. The enormous territory which it taps, its transportation facilities, housing opportunities and the gen eral lay of the land have been taken into consideration in the choosing of this place by the secre- tary ssr the permanent office,
 A careful investigation of the outlay necessary for the mainten- ance of this office reveals the fact that it will be necessary for the government to have large and commodious office quarters. At least Q score of men will be en- ployed in the offices. The gen eral benefit that business will re- ceive from this office cannot at the present time be estimated It is doomed to affect every institution in skagway. It will mean an in creased population, the addition of nsv families in our midst, the in creasing of our schools and the spending of money in our midst.
 The fact that the government has recognized this as the logical spot for tne establishment of this trem- enodus industry, definitely proves tha. Skagway is mounting the lad der of prominence and will in a shCu time hold her own with every city in this northland.
