BEET SUGAR AND REVISION ALREADY ACCOMPLISHED IN ADMISSION OF ISLAND SUGAR Free Philippine Sugar a Menace to Local Growers—Interesting Facts and Figures Showing Importations Sugar Market Will Be Depressed Editor Gazette.—While the tariff on 96 test sugar under the provision of the Dingley bill stands at about $1.68 per hundred pounds, the facts of the case are that sugars are imported into the United States generally on a basis of a duty of but $1.34 per hundred pounds, because of the 20 per cent allowance made to Cuba. In the meantime this 20 per cent allowance made to Cuba becomes a two-edged cutting machine. The Cuban sugar producer is compelled to sell his sugar to the American buyer and the American buyer will only buy the Cuban at a price about 3-8 of a cent a pound below the normal price of the sugar world, because if he endeavors to buy it lower, European buyers will at once begin to buy in the Cuban market. When they do this, then the European markets go down and the decline then reacts again upon Cuba and so the market keeps seesawing from one decline to another until it finally reaches prices below the cost of production. Cuban reciprocity has done the business and we need no more revision. As our import records show, the United States every year gets quite a considerable amount of other West Indian sugar, and when these sugars are bought from any of the British West Indies during the Cuban crop delivery, they have to be sold to the American buyer at such low prices as will be equivalent to the price then being paid to the Cubans. Of course, under just these circumstances the American buyer would prefer to buy from the West Indies as it demonstrates to the Cubans a sunny environment. GOLD AND SILVER MINTS FIXED PRICES FOR YELLOW TAL INCREASES PRODUCT In spite of Adverse Conditions Finance Industry Shows Prosperous Year—Unsteady Prices for Decreases. Output of White Gold and Silver Mint. According to a special press brief prepared by Waldemar Liber of the United States Geological Survey, the gold-mining industry in United States had a successful prosperous year in 1908, in spite of many adverse conditions of war and finance. Fundamentally, prosperity is due to the fixed rate and apparently limitless demand for the product. The immediate operating to increase the profit were in part the removal of abnormal features tending to delay the production in 1907, such as partial closing of the Homestake in the Black Hills of South Dakota and the labor difficulties in their Lode counties of California; some degree the increased proportion of gold is also indirectly due to the closing of many mines in base-metal camps. A tendency ardent increased production by operators was noted as early as last months of 1907 and continued through 1908. Large numbers of owners left the districts in which output of lead, copper and zinc curtailed and began placer work took up leases in gold-mining caves. The director of the mint estimated the production of gold for 1908 domestic sources at $96,350 against $90,435,700 in 1907. Dakota, Alaska, California and rado show large estimated increases ranging from $2,000,000 to $3,600,000. The estimates for Utah indicate decrease of about $1,200,000; for vada a decrease, $3,300,000. The production of Montana, Arizona, Oregon and other silver-producing states has remained appropriate. As our import records show, the United States every year gets quite a considerable amount of other West Indian sugar, and when these sugars are bought from any of the British West Indies during the Cuban crop delivery, they have to be sold to the American buyer at such low prices as will be equivalent to the price then being paid to the Cubans. Of course, under just these circumstances the American buyer would prefer to buy from the West Indies as it demonstrates to the Cubans a supply of sugar outside of the Cuban production and such a demonstration necessarily forces the Cubans down to a still lower level of selling prices. There seems to be but one relief for this and that would be first of all for the West Indies other than Cuba, to hold their sugars until the bulk of the Cuban crop was out of the way and, secondly, for the Cubans themselves to hold their own sugars until they could get a price commensurate with the level of sugar values of the world at large even if that be an artificially depressed level. Apart from any disaster that may come to us from the invasion of our country by several hundred thousand tons of Philippine sugar, stands the fact that we already have about 460,000 tons of free Hawaiian sugar. We already have over 250,000 tons of free Porto Rican sugar. The Louisiana crop is estimated at 350,000 tons and that of Texas at 13,000 with an American beet crop of sugar estimated at 410,000, all of which give us now of free sugars, produced in the United States and coming into the United States of nearly a million and a half tons. Cuba's sugar crop of this year is estimated at 1,400,000 tons, which with the 1,483,000 long tons of domestic and free sugars, gives us about 2,900,000 of free and privileged sugars, excluding the West Indies and excluding the Philippines. The statement of the sugar trade of the United States recently issued by the bureau of statistics indicates a total consumption of seven million pounds or 3,500,000 short tons of sugar, or of 3,150,000 long tons of sugar. With a present domestic and insular supply of about 1,500,000 long tons of sugar free of duty and with Cuba giving us 1,400,000 long tons on the reciprocity basis, we stand only 250,000 tons short of a full supply of sugar for all purposes, without buying a pound from the Philippines or from the British and other West Indian islands apart from Cuba and Porto Rico, and without buying any sugar from Java. Under all these extraordinary conditions we are now asked to admit The director of the mint estimates the production of gold for 1908 domestic sources at $96,375 against $90,435,700 in 1907. Dakota, Alaska, California and rado show large estimated increases from $2,000,000 to $3,666,666. The estimates for Utah indicate decrease of about $1,200,000; for Yada a decrease, $3,300,000. The production of Montana, Arizona, Oregon and other silver-producing states has remained approximately stationary. The production from Philippine Islands shows a greater increase, the estimate of the being $306,708, against $78,767,1907. As part of the Philippine does not reach the United States mints the showing is probably better than these figures would cate. Most of the gold was received by quartz mining in Benguela by dredging operations in Paraguay. The depression in the base industries did not affect the goldduction to any considerable degree for the total base-metal ores compute only 9 to 10 per cent of the mal output of gold for the coarse gold from the copper ores fered little reduction, but the amounts contributed from lead zinc ores were much reduced. The silver-mining industry prevailed less satisfactory condition that of gold, owing to the low yield for silver, lead, copper and zinc ingesting the year the large smelter Utah and Colorado were partly ed and partly operated on a recapacity. Import mines in ville, Aspen, Creede and Park Colo., which were operating on grade ores, found it very difficult make profits on ore of the grades that yielded well in 1906 and 1907, and were therefore compulsory to reduce their output or to Owing to the temporary lack of mand from India the silver mine declined almost continuously about 56 cents per ounce in the ly part of the year to about 48 cents in December, the average pricing 53 cents. The year closed New York prices at 50 cents. Ever since the purchases by India did past years have been large and steadily increased, and there is reason to expect a sudden falling in this market. The extraordr heavy production of the Cobalt trict in Canada, which for 1908 approximate 17,000,000 ounces doubtedly contributed to the decline in the price of silver. A reduction in the output of silver in the United States was clearly shadowed in the figures of the logical Survey for the mine principli Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that Contain Mercury as mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system, when entering it through the mucous surfaces.
