street that another competitor of the

be worth $6,000,000, and was one of the
organizers of the Brooklyn Refining

can Company at a handsome profit. '
Mr. Doscher since that time has prac
tically been out of the sugar business,
although one of his sons is active in the
trade, and is a recognized expert. Ac
cording to the report Mr. Doscher now
wants to build up a business to leave to
his sons. He owns two blocks of water
front in Green Point, which is well
adapted for refinery purposes.
Mr. Doscher when seen confirmed the
report that he intends to re-enter the
business ot sugar manufacturing.

solved to take steps toward bringing
about a more peacful state of affairs in
Crete. A joint note was drawn up and
sent by Admiral Cauevaro, the Italian
commander, who is in command of tho
united fleets, to the Greek consul. The
note informed the representatives of
Greece that any attack upon Canea, Ro
timo, Heraklion or Sitia would be re
pelled by the warships of the foreign
powers in Cretan waters'
This step caused some alarm in Greek
circles, but it is not believed to signify
anything more Eeriousthan a warning to
the Christians and Greeks to cease fight
inc while the powers deliberate and
come to some definite understanding re
garding the future of Crete.
It is still believed the powers will in
some manner sanction the annexation
ot Crete by Greece.
