THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1901. II FOR A FINISH FIGHT The Trust Is Hot After the Sutrar Beet Producers. BATTLE AT NEXT CONGRESS Henry T. Oxnard Tells IVJir the Octo- In "Wants the Duty On Rivw Scgar Hcdnccd Indicate Flan of Action. NEW YORK, Nov. 24. "The sugar trust Trtll do everything: possible this "Winter to lower the duty on raw sugar," said Henry T. Oxnard, president of the Amer ican Beet Sugar Company. today. "Tne trust is now using its power to create a condition in CuDa which will work to its advantage in two ways. One la to depress the price of Cuban sugar, so the trust can use Its J15.000.000 of new capital to advantage In absorbing the beet sugar plantations of the Island, and the other is to bring about the annexation of Cuba through American sympathy with The Cuban people in distress owing to the depressed condition of their princi pal industry." "Are there any other interests allied with the sugar trust?" Mr. Oxnard was asked. "It Is generally believed that the Stand ard OH Company people are very large ly interested in the sugar trust. I have heard that Mr. Rockofeller owns almost one-third of the stock. If this be true, the sugar trust is dangerous in Its war upon the home sugar industry of the United States. The campaign Is already on In Washington. Tho sugar trust is promoting the movement for reciprocity and calling upon the sympa thies of the people foe the Cubans whom the trust is really trying to ruin and force out of business to its own advan tage. Difference In Cost of Production. "It costs about 3V cents por pound to produce a pound of raw sugar in the United States and less than 2 cents to produce the same article in Cuba. Tho rugar trust being in the reflnlng business only, profits by every reduction In tho cost of the raw sugar, and history shows that the sugar consumers of the United States receive no benefits from such a reduction, for the trust makes the fprice. . "The present tariff is the result of tome eight months of thought, labor and in vestigation on the part of the ways and means committee, of which Mr. Dlngley was chairman. No labor or effort-was spared at that time to thoroughly Inves tigate the difference In the cost of- pro duction in foreign countries as against the United States and to equalize it by a fair, Just and equitable tariff to the manufacturer and producer of our own , sugar, always keeping in mind the rights of the consumer. Witnesses and papers were called for from all over the world where sugar Is produced, statistics were gathered, special agents were sent by the Department of Agriculture to Porto Jtlco, Cuba and elsewhere, and the re sult is the present sugar schedule of the Dlngley Bill. How absurd on the part of the trust to say that anything less than this as satisfactory. Methods of the Trnst. "As an illustration of the methods of the trust it is only necessary to quote their official organ, Wlllet & Gray. This circular asserts that the sugar industry could thrive with free raw sugar and a duty of 1 cent a pound upon reflned sugar. That is, the trust wants free raw material and protection for their manu factured products. It simply means that the protection granted the Amer ican producers is all wrong, and that the sugar trust- is only receiv ing half the protection it deserves, the duty on refined sugar now being only one-quarter of a cent per pound. The sugar trust wishes to crush the beet-sugar industry because it fears the rapid development it is making in the United States and realizes that unless something radical la done it will eoon lose Its monopoly of supplying the people of the United States with sugar at its own prices. The first fitep of the trusts in the present war was to attack the in dustry in the territory bordering the Mis souri River where the largest portion or the heet crop has been harvested In the past. The intention was to follow this up in other sections later on, but the trust people have brought so much condemna tion upon themselves It is doubtful if they dare affront the wishes of the- Amer ican people by continuing this kind of warfare. But they can be depended Upon secretly to use every conceivable and questionable method at Washington this Winter in an effort to have the duty on raw sugar reduced or removed. The sip gar trust people realize that this is the only way In which they can bring about the destruction of home sugar Industry. They have ample means at their disposal, ore bold and unscrupulous and will not hesitate to subsidize anything and every thing which may stand in their way. They are playing for a big stake and will have some very able lieutenants at Wash ington. A Favorite Argument. One of the favorite arguments of the trust is that the consumer would benefit by free Taw sugar. Answering this I will point to the fact that Hawaiian sugar was free for 25 years and the price of sugar during all those years was higher on the Pacific than the Atlantic Coast, the consumer of sugar getting no benefit. All the profit went to the Ha waiian planter and Pacific Coast refiner. It would be Identically the same in regard to Cuba. It seems absurd to have the trust making tariffs for the home sugar producers and yet that is -what it is ad vocating. "The people of the United States con sumed last year about 5,000,000,000 pounds of sugar. Of this about 20 per cent was beet sugar. Reciprocity on the lines ad vocated by Mr. McKinley Is all right. In his message he indicated that no harm should come to any home industry. We are today exporting, in round figures, something like 5500,000,000 worth of agri cultural products; we are importing about ?J.OOO.OOO,000 worth of agricultural products, 12,000,000,000 of which we cannot produce at home. This, however, is not true of su gar, the imports of which amount to about $100,000,000. I favor reciprocity on the lines of trading for the $2,000,000,000 worth which we cannot produce at home, and only on these lines. Then again, it must be borne in mind that the moment we begin giving special advantages to any country we are going to alienate from us the other nations with whom we are trading and who produce similar arti cles to those on which we granted recip rocal favors; and this in itself would, in my opinion, counterbalance tho advan tages to be gained from the small mar kets we would reach. , Beet Sagrar Should Be Protected. "The beet-sugar Industry Is strictly an Infant industry and as such is entitled to consideration in the protective tariff pol icy. I believe that should it become ad visable to annex Cuba in the future that we would be in a position to hold our own after we have enjoyed the present tariff for, say, 10 years and Cuba was forced to adopt the same restrictions and conditions as to labor and manufacturing wMch prevail In the United States. "The beet-sugar Industry was firmly established in 1SS9. It has only become a factor In the trade since the passing ot the Dlngley bill In 1S97. Between the pas sage of the Wilson bill and the Dlngley bill, about four years, there was not. a single beet-sugar factor built la the United States. There has been aphenom-T cuo.1 ueveiopment ot tnis industry since the enactment of the Dinelev tariff. In 1SS7 there were less than 10 factories -in' operation, now there are 10, representing an Investment of about $30,000,000. Production of Beet Sugar. "Last year S2.000 short tons of beet sugar were produced, valued at $8,000,000. This TepresenU 2,000,000 acres of sugar beets grown by the farmers. Thirteen states are Interested In. the industry, California, Colorado, Utah, Nebraska, New York, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Mlnne tcta, Oregon and Washington. "An illustration of what the beet-sugar industry can do for a single state is shown In Colorado. We will use there this year 120.000 tons of sugar beets, grown locally. This represents an expenditure to the farmers of $600,000 for the beets alone and $500,000 paid out for supplies, such as coal, coke, lime rock and labor; in other words, this single factory will disburse $1,000,000 In the neighborhood in which It is located, give employment to thousands of people and enable the farm er to grow a highly remunerative crop, which is not subject to the fluctuations of tho board of trade. He knows exactly what he will receive from the harvest when he makes a contract to grow beets for the factories. "The United States can grow all the sugar consumed if the Industry is taken care of fur a few years longer. The cane sugar people of the South are equal ly interested with the sugar-beet peo ple in resisting this attack upon a grow ing home industry. If Protection Is Assured. "If assurances are given that there will be no decrease In the proteotlon now af forded by the tariff there will be $200,000, 000 invested in the beetsugar business within a few years. What this will mean to the neighboring territory and in fact to the country as. a whole can best be Judged by what thejndustry has already done in Its comparatively limited field of operations. "Tno fate of the beet-sugar business in the United States now hangs in the bal ance. To remove the tariff from raw sugar would wipe It out and put tne con sumers of the country at the mercy of a trust which secures its materials in for eign lands where labor Is cheap, refines It at minimum cost and sells the finished product at arbitrary prices. "It Is a battle of audacity and money In unlimited quantities on the one side and the home producers demanding their undoubted rights in a decent way, on tho other I believe that the will of the American people, asserted again and again in and out of Congress for the past 10 years, will prevail and home Industry be sustained. "There will be a strong fight made in Washington this Winter, however, and the trust will be for reciprocity based on a reduction in the Import duties on sugar. If sugar cannot be made free, an attempt will be made to secure a smaller conces sion. In Just the proportion as the duty on raw sugar is reduced will the fanners of the West suffer and the trust pros per. "The Republican party has had some difficulties ln the past in convincing the farmers that the Republican tariff was not for manufacturers only. Here is one of the few cases where the tariff mani festly and directly benefits the farmer, and to be consistent the tariff advocates must let the present schedule alone. For n Finish Fight. "To ruin the sugar planters of Ciiba and buy their plantations for less than cost, to force the people of Cuba to plead with the United States for reciprocity or an nexation, is an Important part of the trust campaign for cheap raw sugar. The American sugar producers are facing a powerful enemy for a finish fight, and if the trust wins, the beet-sugar Industry of the United States will become merely an Incident of the past and the farmers of the West will lose an opportunity of growing a wonderfully .profitable crop, one of the few agricultural products now di rectly benefited by a tariff. I cannot im press too strongly upon the people of the United States the necessity of leaving the sugar tariff schedule as it now stands without, the slightest reduction, if the home sugar Industry is to be so devel oped in the next ten years as to keep the $100,000,000 at home we send abroad fqr sugar." HOW NOt TO DO IT. Various "Ways In Which Buffalo Overreached Itself. Springfield Republican. But it was Buffalo that best repaid the close, the amused attention of the stu dent of human nature. It was the Buf falonlans who were 'after our dollars, and got them. Buffalo it is that claims to have lost "in the neighborhood" of $3,000,000, and now propose to ask the Nation to re imburse it upon the plea that the untoward and deplorable happening of President Mc Kinley's assassination dulled popular in terest In the exposition and caused the loss. "Thrift, thrift, Horatio l" should take Its place upon the great seal of the Bison city, there forever to remind of the dom inant thought ever presiding over that municipality and all the inhabitants there of. Two million dollars would amply make up all proper deficit, and probably a less sum. Buffalo began with the purpose to pro tect the stranger invited within her gates. To this end the City Council passed an ordinance forbidding the solicitation of the unwary outsider to bed and board. All was to be regulated by commitees who should procure lists of lodging and board ing places and assign applicants. But the harvest did not spread out so as to satisfy the local dollar-chasers, and mut inous revolt appeared and raged until the city government was forced to rescind its wholesome regulations, and the Mayor was authorized to Issue license which per mitted the holder to take up tho role of the hackman at Niagara. The licensed out did all previous efforts at the Falls. His Honor stamped and delivered 1000 of these licenses, and so the pursuit of arriving visitors waxed fast and furious. If any one had gone to Buffalo fearing that he would find difficulty in obtaining quarters, the moment of his arrival undeceived him. He could take his pick of cheap and noisy applicants as aggresslye as beggars of the far East. To the keepers of hotels the exposition months were on time for hay making, and money was made and guests cured of Its possession with shameless greed. The fever to get a dollar attacked all sorts and conditions of men and women. Landlords in the region of the exposition grounds had raised rents and warned out all who would not pay more and were unprotected by leases. Tenants who remained or came In expected to re coup themselves of the money-bearing visitor, and did so as far as tireless indus try of onslaught and appeal could ayail to that end. The practice of thrift began with the inception of t the exposition. Buffalo's Country Club, for example, which owned a clubhouse on the site chosen and was in a decadent state, sold out at a round price, and so departed to new and ampler quarters and great prosperity. The rich citizen whose farm Joined the park and was needed for the show exacted rent for the use of his lands which are to be put back as before that would seem like a fortune to one poor in this world's goods. Perhaps It was only a fair deal we do not know, as this is a bit of Buffalo gos sip. But the irony of fate was In It Tho unpaid contractors for the exposition building are now keen after the money promised and earned, and clever lawyers, It is said, advise them that the man on whose grounds these buildings have been erected can possibly be holden for the deficit So there Is promise of a lawsuit Involving some $400,000, unless indeed Con gress comes to the rescue and listens to the sad and moving appeal of Buffalo as she sits weeping In her $3,000,000 "cav ity," to borrow the classic word which Dr. William Everett employed in Congress, We are bidden to mourn with those who mourn, but In this matter of their exposition we are fain to say that Buffa lonlans are horribly exacting in their drafts upon popular sympathy. HEAVY FLOUR SHIPMENT INDRAPORA WILL TAKE OUT NEAR LY FIFTY THOUSAND BARRELS. November Exports Will Fall Short on Account of Lack of Tonnage Twelve Grain Ships Due. The big Oriental, liner Indrapura was hauled back into the channel Wednesday night and proceeded on down to the Portland Flouring Mills, where she will take on board a big cargo of flour. The exact amount of the consignment is not known as yet, but she will take but close to 50,005 barrels, which, with several hun dred bales of cotton and a lot of miscel laneous freight, will give her about the largest cargo that has yet left the port by a 3hlp of the new line. In spite of the big shipment on the Indrapura, flour ship ments from Portland for tho month will be lighter than those of the last month. The Danish bark Prinsesse Marie, which was to have finished yesterday, haujed out into the stream to give the Indrapura berth at the mills, and will hardly get back to the dock again In time to finish tomorrow. Flour shipments from Wil lamette Valley points are still 'diverted to the Puget Sound lines, and the shipments from the three points, Tacoma, Seattle and Everett, for the month of November will exceed 140,000 barrels. Some relief will be afforded Portland next month by the arrival of the Califor nia & Oriental liner Strathgyle, which has already booked considerable space. It is reported that the Portland & Asiatic line will supplement its present service with another steamer. One steamer will help, but two are needed, and -within a year the five will be inadequate to han dle the business that originates in Port land territory. BIG FLEET COMING. Over a Dozen Sailing Vessels Due at Portland. A strong "easterly wind at the mouth of the river yesterday kept the fleet known to be due well off shore, and there were no arrivals. In spite of the large, number of vessejs that came Into port In a bunch early In November and late In October, there Is not much left for exporters to work on, and unless some 6f the vessels due reach here within a week, business on tho front will come to a standstill. The fleet now due Is about the largest that has been due at any time this season, and numbers over a dozen vessels, with a possibility that one or two others, of which the sailing date Is unknown, may be mixed in with the bunch when it reaches here. In addition to the William Mitchell, which Is known to be outside, two other South African ships are due, the Bardowlc, 10S days from Table Bay, and the Ilala, 100 days from Port Natal, while the Blackbraes 13 out 88 days from Table Bay. The German bark Bertha sailed from Santos 92 days ago, and is fully due. Of the European fleet headed In this direction, the Pax is fully due, after a passage of 139 days from Liverpool; the Tarpenbek 131 days from Hamburg, and the Jean Bart, 120 days from St. Nazaire. Other vessels due here are the Ernest Reyer, SO days from Hobart; Irby, 70 days from Freemantle; Riversdale, 20 days from San Diego; Renfield, 57 days from Plsagua and Les Adelphes, 75 days from Madagascar. The Fulwood is out about CO days from Talcahuano, and Is supposed to be one of the three square-rlgger3 re ported outsldo before the recent gales sent them off shore. BRINGING INWARD CARGOES. Tvro Pacific. Export Lumber Com pany's Ships for Portland. The Guernsey brought over 5000 bales of hemp from Manila, of which over 4000 bales were for San Francisco. She Is one of the Pacific Export Lumber Company's regular chartered vessels, and has made several trips between Portland, Vancou ver, B. C. and the Orient, Not all of the Pacific Export steamers bring inward cargo, but another of them, the Ventnor, due at Portland from Calcutta early In 1902, will bring a full cargo of bags. If the Puget Sound classification, which calls every tramp steamer "a new line for Puget Sound," was applied to the fleet of the Pacific Export Lumber Com pany, Portland would be the headquarters for a mammoth steamship enterprise which has had in lta employ within the past two years nearly 20 steamships. The Pacific Export Lumber Company docs not make any pretensions toward maintaining a regular service, but It Is ttvs largest concern of Its kind In the United States, and has done more to develop Portland's lumber business than any other firm that ever entered this field. TO BRING OUT THE KOREA. Captain Scabury to Have Command of Pacific Mall's Latest Ship. Captain W. B. Seabury, who was run ning north from San Francisco to this port and Puget Sound about 25 years ago, In the Pacific Mall service, has been de tached from his last command, the China, and will soon leave San Francisco for Newport New3, Va., to take charge of tho new steamship, the Korea, and bring her to the Pacific Coast. The Korea Is the largcnt steamship ever, built in the United States, and was launched on March 23 last. Her length Is 572 feet 4 inches, beam 63 feet, depth 40 feet, draught 27 feet, arid displacement 18,000 tons. The steamer is to make IS knots an 'hjour, under her builder's contract, but her 18,000 horse power engines are expected" to drive her easily at 20 knots. At this rate the run to Honolulu would be made In less than five days. The Korea will be able to ac commodate 200 flrsticlass passengers and over 1200 In the steerage. Within a few weeks the vessel will be on her way to San Francisco. Early next year her sister ship, the Siberia, will be on the way to the Pacific. MARINE MOVEMENTS. Four Vessels Leave Down, but Only One Ship Was Worlclnir. The Norwegian steamship Horda and the American steamship Lakme, both lumber-laden, left down yesterday, the former for Manila and the coaster for San Francisco. Tho steamer Alliance ar rived up late Wednesday evening. The Fulton, from San Francisco arrived in at Astoria and left up shortly after noon. She is operated by the Gray Steamship Company, who have the Alliance on the regular run between Portland and San Francisco by way of the Coast ports. The Indrapura shifted down to the flour mills, and was working all day yesterday. Aside from these movements there was nothing doing In the harbor yesterday, and it is seldom, even on Thanksgiving day, that the harbor presents such a lifeless ap pearanco as was in evidence yesterday. INSPECTION DISCONTINUED. New Rule for Victorln-PuRet Sound Steamers Carrying: Asiatics. PORT TOWNSEND, Nov. 28. The in spection of local passenger steamers bringing Asiatics from Victoria to Puget Sound ports has been discontinued by order of Dr. M. H. Foster, surgeon in charge of this quarantine district. Such action was taken on account of Asiatics coming to the United States from British Columbia via Sumas, by rail, without quarantine restrictions, and Dr. Foster is of the opinion it is useless to guard 6ne avenue when another affords free access. Heretofore all local vessels bringing Asi atics from British Columbia ports were required to call here for quarantine In spection. Overdue Glennhiel Arrives. PORT TOWNSEND, Wash.; Nov. 28. The steamship GlenBhiel, four days behind her schedule time, arrived today from Downing, Hopkins & Co. ESTABLISHED 1803. EAT AND STOCK BROKER Room 4, Ground Floor Yokohama. The Glenshlel brought neither frolght nor passengers. Her delay in arriving was caused by a gale and strong head-winds, which were encountered from tho time she left Yokohama until her arrival here. The Hudson's Victims. HOUGHTON, Mich., Nov. 23. Fisher men from Manltou Island report that sev eral 'bodies of the crew of the wrecked steamer Hudson are buried in the sand along the shore of Keewenaw Point from Bete do Grls to Manltou Island. The bodies are badly decomposed and cannot bo identified. Domestic and Foreign Ports. ASTORIA. Nov. 2S. Arrived at 11 A. M. and left u? at 12:40 P. M. Steamer Fulton, from San Frar.cl3Co.

Business on the Stock Exchange opened with operators idle, with prices steady. The West African section was somewhat disturbing, owing to Colonial Sec retary Chamberlain's pronouncement regarding native manufacturing samples, and publication of the report of the Governor of the Gold Coast about concessions to the Industry. Prices were nominal. Consols opened Arm, but weakened, owing' to fears regarding money. Home rails wore dull. The flatness of Rio TIntos was tho main featuro of the market. They fell 2 points, in sympathy with Oopper, which was attrib uted to New York celllnsr. Americans were slow, owing to the holiday. Prices closed quiet.

Beyond tha statement made last night to Mayor Granger by one of the expert account ants, that a shortage amounting to $23,000 had been found in the books of the ex City Treasurer, Stuart B. Young, who committed suicide yesterday evening, nothing definite is known as to how the accounts stand between the city and its ex-Treasurer. It Is said that the accountants will require two weeks of constant work to go over the books. During his four years' term as City Treasurer, Mr. Young han dled 511,000,000. There were various re ports today as to trw amount of the al leged shortage, some placing It at $50,000 and some even higher, but they are all curmises, according to the men who are examining the books.

DISEASES AND "WEAKNESS OF en Only Not Weakness, Symptoms By far the greater number of patients seek ing relief for eo-called "Weakness" is fur nished by healthy and robust men. On exam ination we find a Prostate Gland which has been damaged by either a contracted disorder or early dissipation. These patients have no weakness at all. Prematureness, Loss ot Vi tality, etc.. are the symptoms, or disordered function, of the chronically Inflamed prostate gland. We find by curing this inflammation that full vigor at once returns. It should be understood that tonics, electricity, etc, might cure a real weakness, but would do harm in inflammation. The main object Is to reduce the size of the tender, swollen and Inflamed prostate. This we accomplish by local treat ment, thus avoiding drugs. Men who havp unsuccessfully treated for a weakness should now understand tho cause of failure. Portland Office, 250 Alder Street. Office Honrs, 9 A. M., to 5 P. M.
