Vigorous Measures to Abolish the “Kartell” Will Be Taken. LONDON, Nov. 22.—The British sugar magnates assert that their investigations have revealed the existence in Germany of a great trust, called the “Kartell,” which has been in existence about a year, and that it is chiefly owing to its agency that sugar has been forced down in Eng- land and other countries to the lowest point in the history of the Industry, and that Germany to-day is enabled to dictate to the world the price of that commodity. The exact extent of the “Kartell” was discovered, they say, only quite recently. The magnitude of its operations supplied the missing factors in the present alarm- ing condition of the sugar market. The abolition of this organization will be one of the chief objects of the nations other than Germany attending the forth- coming Brussels conference. Already British firms have entered into negotia- tions with leading American sugar inter- ests and tables are now being drawn up showing the transactions of the “Kartell,” with a view of submitting them to, the authorities at ‘Washington. Threats From the British. The British Government will be urged to empower its representatives at thc Brussels conference to threaten retalla- tory and countervailing measures unless the “Kartell” is broken up or at least modified. The latest figures available in London show that Germany now produces one- third of the werld’s supply of beet sugar, | of which she exports no less than 1,250, 000 tons after completely supplying her own population. These exports, which are almost one-fifth of the world’s available | supply, are sent out at a loss to German manufacturers, but thanks to the “Kar- tell,” plus the bounty, they are able not only to make up for this, but to reap a handsome profit in addition to gaining absolute control of the sugar market. The “Kartell” is run very secretly, but from confidential reports in London it is learned that it consists of an ironclad combination of almost all producers and refiners to keep up the price of beet sugar in Germany. This is done so successfully that German consumers to-day pay as much for sugar as the Briton does for the same article imported from Germany. Methods of the “Kartell.” The members of the ‘“Kartell” bind themselves to buy from and sell only to those affiliated with the combine. This has worked so satisfactorily that the | “Kartell” now includes practically every factor of the sugar interests in Germany, from the agricultural producers to the re- finer. The latter agrees always to pay 12.75 marks per hundred weight for the raw article, though natural conditions might ordinarily allow him to buy three marks cheaper. This, however, insures more permanently high prices to the con- sumer. The enormous profits consequent upon these methods are pooled in the “Kartell” and aré divided upon an elab- orate and ingenious scale, and the sur- plus product is disposed of at a slight loss in other European and American mar- kets, though even tlis deficlt is often made up by the bounty that Gerziany pro- vides. British sugar authorities are quoted as saying that the German “Kartell” and bounty combined will, within two years, ruin the beet and cane industry in other countries, especially in Cuba and the West Indies. @ siieimiiieiieieielnlelel el @ GAITICS oM N THIS AT Literary London Upset by an Article on Stevenson —_— LONDON, Nov. 23.—Literary London is stirred to its depths by a remarkable criticism of the late Robert Louls Steven- son, contributed by William E. Henley to a Christmas number of a periodical. “Blazing _ indiscretion,” “ill - judged screed” and “Jampoon” are samples of the terms applied to the article by indig- nant and surprised admirers of the author | of “Treasure Island.” Even those who attempt to defend the justice of the criti- cism find that it lays Henley open to charges of disloyalty and pbad taste. The Dally News is emphatic in its protest. It says: ““We are not surprised that the literary world is scandalized. It is astonishing that any man of ordinary feeling should have written in such terms of a dead friend. One thing is made quite clear by the article. Stevenson has a genulne hold upon the affections of his country- men, and that affection will last long after Mr. Heniey's fll-Judged screed is forgotten."” A writer on the Star affects to regard the article as a literary hoax. He says: “Henley was Stevenson’s friend of friends. Therefore he could mnot have written this lampoon. Doubtless Henley deems the imposture unworthy of the honor of exposure.” SELECTING THE LADY MANAGERS FOR THE FAIR Miss Helen M. Gould and Mrs. M. H, de Young Among the Seven- teen Chosen. ST. LOUIS, Nov. 23.—Seventeen of the twenty-one ladies who will constitute the board of lady managers of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition have been appointed by the national commission.

Two Vessels Bought in Eng- land Must Be Recon- structed. Special Dispatch to The Call. CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N. | W., WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.—Serious defects which make the ships unfit for habitation have been discovered in the protected cruisers Albany and New Or- leans. These vessels are sister ships, and were purchased at Elswick, England, just be- fore the outbreak of the war with Spain. Surgeon Harrls, recently attached to the Albany, and now on duty on the Monoc- acy, says in an official report that from a sanitary point of view the Albany is so radically defective that it is almost i possible to relate in detail the necessary changes which will have to be made be- fore she can be transformed into a reason- | ably sanitary vessel. The space on board is not sufficient to meet the requirements of the health of | the crew. Ventilation from the deck should be provided for tne entire berth deck from the engine room forward. Sur- | geon Harris thinks an improved system of ventilation is absolutely necessar: “It is impossible to overestimate,” he says, “the danger to health of those who are berthed in wing passages should the weather require the ship to be battened | | down for several days. With a tempera- ture of 136 degrees F. it is obvious that people could not live in these places. “The reason that the health of the| crew of this ship has been about the average since she went into commission is. | in the first place, that she has never had | her full complement of men aboard her, and, in the second place, that she has | done most of her cruising in favorable | weather. If these conditions are material- ly changed, the health of the crew will, | in my opinion, proportionately suffer.” | L o e e e .
