A SUGAR CRNTRAL
 IN PORTO RICO

tion of sugar that the war brought about The fact that sugar grown from American soil was larger in quantity than ever before, was of great service to the American con- sumner, because the competition af- forded between the homegrown product and imported sugar sold by the refiners, resulted in a saving in price that ran into millions of dol- lars.
 Because of this domestic competi- ton and the large volume of sugar homegrown that found it's way to market, prices of sugar to the con sumer were held down to far lower levels last year than would have been the case if there had been no do- mestic production and this country had been wholly dependent upon foreign nations for sugar supplies.
 For the first time in history sugar grown in the United States last year provided over one-half of all the sugar consumed by the American people, the total production of home grown sugar reaching 4,596,000.000 pounds.
 The longest forward stride in the production of home grown sugar was made by the beet sugar branch of

 At the meeting in the theatre, which was to have been addressed by Miss Pankhurst upon the theme, Shah Men Enlist. soldiers in the gallery interrupted her with cat-calls. yells and the strains of Boys of the Bull dog Breed.

Over eight and one-half billion pounds of sugar were required Tn 1915 to satisfy the American sweet tooth.
 This brought the nations sugar bill for the past year up to S5O0, ,OOO,- 900, representing an amount larger by at least hundred million dollars than the American people ever be- fore paid.
 The cause of the increased size of this sugar bill was the European war.t From the very beginning of hostilities the cost of sugar has risen to high levels the world over.
 Due to war influences, also, the domestic production of sugar which had fallen off after the passage of the Underwood tariff law with its free sugar provision, gained a new lease of life and reached a high rec ord mark in 1915.
 Though the American householder had to pay more for sugar last year than under normal conditions. yet he had one compensation. Sugar was cheaper in the United States during 1915 than in any other large sugar using country in the world
 This favorable price condition was l7e to the record domestic produc-

the industry, which produced in the last campaign, now coming to a close. 1,700.000,000 pounds of sugar. The value of this sugar to the Amer ican beet sugar producers was in ex- cess of $90,00O,0OO and brought to the beet farmers of the West who grew the beets over S40,000,000.
 Beet sugar made in this campaign was sold in practically every state in the Union during the fall and winter months, and at wholesale prices averaging about one-half a cent a pound below the prices asked by the refners for sugar made from imported raws. This price reduction represented a saving to the Ameri- can consumers of this sugar amount ing to over $S.000.G00.
 The next largest contribution to last years record output of home grown sugar was made by the sugar planters of Hawaii. with a produc- tion of 1,300.GG0.000 pounds of sugar, an increase of over 500 ,0O0.- coo pounds over the preceding year.

PANAMA ELECTIONS NEAR

PANAMA-The part to be played i by the United States in the next presi-
 dential election in Panama, which takes place next July, is being discuss ed at informal conferences between the American authorities on the 18th mus and leaders of the various politi- cal factions of the little Republic. All factions are deeply interested as to whether the United States will again supervise the election as was done in both 1908 and 1912.
 Most of the conferences have been sought by the leaders of the opposition or Liberal Party. which is supporting Dr. Rodolfo Chiari for the presidency. It is understood that the opposition leaders favor American election super vision, or intervention as it is univer- sally called in Panama. They express the belief that fair and impartial cleo tions cannot be held in the republic without the aid of the United States. A similar reason. it is said, brought ahout American supervision in both 1908 and 1912 when army officers and civilian canal employees were sent in- to the interior to take charge of the polling places and preserve order on election day.
 Thus far the only expression that has come, from the Liberal Republican or Government Party, which is said to be behind the candidacy of pr. Ramon w Valdez, is one of opposition to su- Dervision. Dr. Belisario Porras. presi- dent of the Republic and leader of this political faction. has lief it be known that he does not favor active interfer- enee by the American authorities. He has declared that he would not be a party to any request for supervision and points out that intervention can only come after all political factions interested in the election make a joint

traffic then are employed in all of it's branches. No doubt a sudden change from the present traffic to any i'm proved condition would bring a hard ship upon some men but judging from the past, prohibition is coming by states, and so far labor does not com plain of conditions that prohibition brings. In fact. it rejoices over i'm proved conditions.
 The circular says: The U. $. gov ernment would be deprived of it's present revenue of about 300 million dollars annually derived from tax on liquors. which sum would have to be raised by other kinds of taxation. Municipal governments would lose license fees to the extent of some eighty million dollars. All with the slightest moral penefits Can the country afford it?',
 This three hundred million dollars has prevented us for several years from doing what we are now accom- plishing. Men are beginning to see that this is an unjust tax. placing as it does the burden of government on drinking men and letting the temper ance men go free so far as a tax on what they drink is concerned. The collection of the eighty million dollars by our city governments has been responsible for much of the corrup- tion in city governments and the en- slaving of all branches of society by the present saloon system.
 If I am any judge, the liquor traf- fic is now upside down and will die in that position if the liquor men don't get busy and put it right side up.

Cotton

A. might have been expected, tho
announcement that the Icutouic Alses
were ready % discuss peace terms was
1.-The predominant factor IN the cottn
market yesterday. The publication OF
this news stimulated a remarkably
brisk demand both from trade sources
and from outside spectators. and as q
consequence prices quickly advanced
from So 20 90 points s. TO $3.50 a bale
above the mornings low levels. frac-
tonal recession followed, but the close
showed net gains Of 81 20 SO points IN
the active deliveries.
Still higher prices were paid on the
curb after the close, March beng

Official high mark was 1850. The hnNl
bulge Just before the close carried Jan
uary 70 ls.55c March 20 lo.s2c. May 10
1q.O2c and July 90 l9.06c or from ] l'
10 l32 points above the low MARKS
reached on Monday remarkable drop.
A. the outset IL seemed as though
this downward movement was 20 pc
continued, opening prices being 70
10 points lower. and shortly thereafter
the net losses ranged from Is % 70
points. This decline was traceabie IN
part 10 further forced liquidation OF
long accounts, many holders sending IN
selling orders instead Of the extra mar
gins demanded as q result Of the big
break.
Southern interests were also heavy
sellers al the outset. while the offer
igs were also decidedly heavy from
Liverpool. Moreover, tina. market was
much weaker than expected, the spot
price being 80 points lower while
futures closed Al 70 as points lower.
On the decline recent short sellers
showed a willingness TO accept their
profits. but the big bulk Of the buying
was for trade account.
Although the mills did not buy on
the same enormous scale as noted on
MONDAYS radical break they nevertne-
less took in the cotton in large blocks
the bulk Of the purchases being cred
tied 10 New York and Carolina mills.
This buying served TO create greater
uneasiness among shorts, ana toward
the close more active demand was
noted from Wall Street In the mean
time offerings seemed 70 have dlsap-
peared almost entirely. and as a result
prices quickly rose 20 the days high
est levels. The only offerings IN sight
on the late trading came from certain
local operators who believed the adj
vance uuwarranted.
The buying by trade houses was
based 10 a large extent on strong adj
vices from the South. IL was claimed
that most Of the cotton unsold was
closely held and that owners would
ignore any weakness in future con
tracts. u is true that the New Or
leans price was l'sc lower at lsc. but
only 200 bales were secured. Likewise
in Norfolk the price fell &c 20 l1"sc
but sales were only 90 bales. Mobile
was nominally lac lower and Baltl-
more 1e lower but there were no
sales. Prices were unchanged IN Lit
tie Rock, Savannah, Charleston and
Augusta. and in the latter market 1913
bales were sold az 1880. or over lie
above January contracts in New York.
