PORTO RICO is
NOW SPEEDING UP
ON PRODUCTION

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Jan. g.
With the Iassing CT today celebrated
throughout tie island as Three
Kings Day anf9Fecogn.zed as one oil
The biggest holidays In all Spanish
speaking countries-the grinding sea
SON in Porto Rico win rapidly gather
momentum and should be shortly in
fun swing.
As a general rule few Porto Rican
centrals attempt 10 start grinding IN

tive. D.. ~.
More centrals Grinding
II is noteworthy this season. how
ever, that there have been more cen
trails grinding during the month OF
December than during any previous
sugar year, and it is safe to say that
the present season starts with more
sugar actually made than ever before
in any previous December.
Actual shipments of centrifugals
during the month, as recorded by tie
customs authorities, however, show a
falling off as compared with the past
two years. -.:.. .""I
Fritze Lundt & Company, Succs..
Inc, for many wears the largest local
sugar buyers, now estimate the Porto
Rican sugar production from the pres
ent cane crop at 5l6.650 ordinary tons.
This estimate is slightly in excess of
that OF ]. Ruiz Soler4 secretary of the
Porto Rican Sugar Producers Associa-
ton, who recently estimated the 1916
1917 production at 510,S0O tons.
Many local sugar men are Of the opin-
ion that both estimates will probably
prove considerably under the actual
production when the end of the season
is reached '...."..
Weather Conditions Favorable
Weather conditions throughout al
most the entire island have been IA
vorable for harvesting and growing
for over a month. There has been
considerable recovery in the appear
ance of the cane since the months OF
heavy rains ended and particularly on
the south side of the island the cane
is maturing rapidly. +
In striking contrast with this time
last year there is no talk of labor
troubles with agricultural and factory
laborers, and there is every indication
at present that the strikes, which
seemed inevitable three months ago,
will not materialize. Better wages
and the promise Of bonuses to be paid
at the end of the present crop season
are serving to keep the laborers bet
ter satisfied than they were at this
time last year, when the worst
strikes. in the history of the islands
sugar Industry ,were just starting.
Many centrals are still without
many such needed supplies to begin
grinding, due 70 the difficulty OF pro-
curing materials ami many vexing
shipping difficulties. In some in
stances supplies ordered nine months
ago In the United States are still I'M
delivered in Porto Rico.

IMPROVEMENTS
At HOSPITAL IS
TOLD IN REPORT

George w. Smith was reelected
president OF the Queens hospital cor
poration and George c. Potter. A. j.
Campbell and Edgar Henriques, were
selected as trustees for a two-year
term at the annual meeting Wednes-
day afternoon. The board Of trustees
in turn named Potter, treasurer, and
Bruce Cartwright, Jr., secretary. H.
Several reports were read, CHIEF
among which was that Of Superinten-
dent Werner Roehl which pointed out
many improvements and additions to
the institution during the past year.
The report in part follows:
point with pride and pleasure to
the following facts OF this fifty
seventh annual report Of the Queen
hospital; 1907 patients were admitted
and the X-ray department has made
1875 examinations in charge OF MI.
Neuskajian. .t
The increase in prices paid for
drugs. chemicals, apparatus, instru-
ments, provisions, labor and so forth,
have added materially to the current
EXPENSES.
We have the board of trustees to
thank for the new X-ray machine. A
hydraulic operating table, a new or
thopedfc table and an up-to-date con-
finement table have been ordered, all
of which will materially assist in the
investigation and cure of various dis
eases. ..
We have installed modern ranges
heated with oil in. both kitchens. New
kitchen utensils have been replaced
with aluminium ware. A new hot wa
ter circulating system is nearing com
pletion, which has also been changed
from gas to oil burning. We shall be
able to get hot water at a moments
notice, a great advantage over the old
system. 49,. -.
! A steam boiler has also been in
stalled, providing steam for sterllizlng
in the surgery. The large ward on
the first floor has been partitioned for
white female patients, relieving the
ccngested situation in the present
woman's ward. ~. ...-..,
The drug store is now in charge OF
a eomnetent man, a graduate from
the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy,
All prescriptions and many other ar
ticlss are compounded and manufac-
tured right in the hospital. Expensive
medicines are charged against the pa
tients. Ordinary floor medicines are
free. ia l.. j. sEs.E
The established nurses training
school no doubt has been a success
and the new card ledger bookkeeping
system which has been put in opera
ton with assistance of the treasurer,
George Potter, is a great improve
ment -
/ wish to thank the board Of trust
ees, the general staff, the hospital
employees, the clergy, the flower soci-
ETY., the Outdoor Circle and all other
friends Of the hospital for their hearty
support and cooperation and the press
for always being willing to help the
hospital along in any way when called
upon. I. i .s-.... --.-s

CITY BUSINESS AND
SUPERVISORS NOTES

Action on the resolution to amend
the appropriation bill in regard TO a
Promotion Committee donation was
again deferred.
The next meeting of the board of
supervisors will be held Saturday noon
for pay rolls only. Tuesday, February
6, the board will hold its regular meet
ing, 49,. @.
During the month Of January the
board of supervisors has appropriated
cut of the general fund S2783 more
than was figured in the appropriation
bill.
The board Tuesday evening voted
that the Sea View improvement bonds
be awarded to the highest bidder, the
B. M. Allen Estate, which offered $3.50
for the $4,000 worth of bonds.
The complaint of the US. immigra-
ton station that the street by the sta
ton is in an abominable condition, and
that teams are tied on the sidewalk
was referred to the road department
and the engineer was ordered to set
the grades for sidewalk. When the
grade is set" said Larsen, the station
can then put in its own sidewalk. -.
James T. Taylor, consulting engl-
neer, has complained to the board OF
supervisors that because no provision
was made at the intersection of Nuu-
anu and the. road leading out Of the
Dcwsett estate. for storm water, the
water is being carried down the
avenue to Laimi road, where it washes
away the road surface, leaving it in
deplorabIe condition. The matter was
referred to the road department.
Daniel Logan has promised the
beard of supervisors that he will go
out this week and raise $500 to pay
for the cages for the birds and beasts
at Kapiolani park. The resolution OF
Hollinger appropriating $500 from the
permanent improvement fund was
again tabled. 1t was said there is no
money to pay for them. Holitnger
then demanded that the members eth
er pass or kill the resolution. and 1t
was at this point that Logan made his
offer.
