DALNY IS NOT POPULAR NOW

 

            ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 3 - Details of Finance Minister Witte's journey to the Far Ease are beginning to arrive here by post.  A letter dated October 12th describes his stay at Vladivostock.  The principal matters laid before him there were petitions for a free port for ships at Vladivostock, for exemption of all Chinese goods from customs duties, for commercial and naval schools at Vladivostock, for freedom of commerce in transit from customs inspection at Vladivostock and for various minor reforms in the customs inspections in the interests of passenger traffic.  It is generally realized here that the abolition of the free port at Vladivostock has dealt a most severe blow at the city's prosperity: nor are voices wanting in the criticism of the scheme of the Minister of Finance in the modern and costly new city of Dalny.  The Dalny Vostock of Port Arthur not only throws doubt upon the necessity for fountains and parks in a city which so far has no inhabitants, but pronounces the choice of the site for the new city most unfortunate.  Dalny has no natural harbor lying on the open sea where the water is shallow.  The artificial harbor had to be connected with the sea by a cancel two miles long, which it is dangerous to approach in even moderately windy weather on account of rocks and sand on both sides.  Up to February $6,500,00 had been spent at Dalny of who only one-half was for the harbor.  Work on the harbor had to be stopped half way because the appropriation had been exceeded, large sums having been expended for the beautification of the site.  The splendid looking brick and stone houses, however, are believed to be exceedingly inconvenient and cold, the architects having as is usual with Russian architects subordinated the interior arrangements for comfort and convenience wholly to supposed exterior beauty. 

            The Dalny Vostock declares that Inkou, on the river Liao, should have been selected as the principal shipping port of Manchuria, the Chinese transit trade having taken this route for ages.  Ice breakers can easily keep this harbor ice free  Dalny is no longer an ice free port since the moles of the artificial harbor cause an accumulation of ice floes that were formerly swept away by the wind.  It is feared that official favor will never be able to make Dalny a genuine competitor of Inkou, which is over 150 miles nearer the Manchurian market. 

            The report of the Minister of the Interior on the famine relief of 1901 is considered an important document.  M. Von Plehewe admits that the Central Government did not distinguish itself in this work, which it withdrew from the hands of the Zemstovoes in 1900, many local officials taking action only after the need was very great.  The Minister recommends a partial return to the old system, declaring that no form of relief is comparable to public works and only the Zemstovoes can take such work.

            M. Plehewe also admits "the famine of 1901 not only had extremely unfavorable results for the afflicted districts but testified to the general deterioration of the condition of the peasants."

 

Billie Due in December.

 

            Instead of being overdue, the bark Billie really has another month to stay at sea without making her agents here anxious for her.  The vessel is out about 160 days fro Hamburg, but it seems that after leaving the German port she went to Leith to finish loading and did not leave the latter port until July 5, so that her agents do not expect to see her before December 1, and possibly much later, in case she has had a rough passage.

 

            Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is intended especially for coughs, colds, croup, whooping cough and influenza.  It has become famous for its cures of these diseases over a large part of the civilized world.  The most flattering testimonials have been received, giving accounts of its good works; of the aggravating and persistent coughs it has cured; of severe colds that have yielded promptly to its soothing effects, and of the dangerous attacks of croup it has cured, often saving the life of the child.  The extensive use of it for whopping cough has shown that it robs that disease of all dangerous results.  It is especially prized by mothers because it contains nothing injurious and there is not the least danger in giving it even to babies.  It always cures and cures quickly.  All dealers and druggists sell it.  Benson, Smith & Co., agents for Hawaii.

 

CHEMISTS COMBINE

 

They Will Have Uniform Plan of Sugar Tests.

 

            "The Hawaiian Sugar Chemists' Association," which has for its purpose uniformity in dealing with the sugar crop of the Islands, was formed at a meeting of chemists of the various plantations, held on Tuesday.  This organization was planned over a month ago at the preliminary meeting of the chemists of Oahu, which included not only those of the plantations, but the chemists who are engaged in other experimental work.

            At the meeting of the Hawaiian Sugar Planters' Association last week the matter of uniformity of chemical methods in dealing with cane was discussed, and it was decided that an association of the chemists, but which all would work toward a uniform plan, would be of great benefit in providing a general outline by which all plantation work might be guided.  The organization, as formed, is not antagonistic to the planters interests in any way, the union being not so much for the protection of the chemists as for the benefit of the plantations.

            The meeting for organization was held in the rooms of the Hawaiian Sugar Planters' Association and the twenty-two chemists were enrolled at that time, most of them from Oahu.

            The following were the officers elected for ensuing year:

            President, C.F. Eckart.

            Vice President, J.C. Penny.

            Secretary and Treasurer, Edmund C. S@rey.

            The executive committee consists of the above named officers and P.A.G. Massehaert, Oahu; W. McQuaid, Hawaii; Geo. H. Baldwin, Maui; A. Fries, Kauai.

            The object of the association is the study of sugar chemistry and the methods of analysis used in effecting chemical control of sugar house work, with the aim of arriving at uniformity both of methods and statements of results.

            The work of investigation necessary in order to arrive at uniformity of methods is to be conducted by committees appointed by the president.  Much of this work will take some time but the committee on extraction expects to report within two weeks and upon this report the executive committee will probably recommend and publish a provisional method for this branch of the work, to be used during the coming crop.

            The intention of the sugar chemists of Hawaii to form such an association was discussed at the meeting of the Planters' Association last week and the association just formed seems to be assured of the support and cooperation of the planters.
