In 1834-33 the to tal beer sugar crop of the world was but 182.000 tons; by 1SG4-C3 it had reached 3CG.000 tons; In 1S74-T3 it was 1,219,000 tons; in 1SS4-83, 2.313,000 tons; in 1894-93. 4,792,793 tons; In 1899-1900, 3.310,000 tons. In 1 S3 1-33 beet sugar formed 13 per cent of the world's total sugar crop and in 1899 1900 it formed Ct per cent. The sugar producing area of the world In less than half a century has been shifted from the tropics northward, and the farmer of the temperate zone has .shown the ability not only to compete with the low-priced labor of the trop ics, but In doing so to reduce by o.ie half th cost of the article produced. GERMAN EEET SU3AR. May Soon Lose It3 Chance in the American LTarket. BERLIN. Dee. 2.;. I)r. Pasch lead er of the National Liberals in the Reichstag, has just returned from a four months' trip in the Tnifd States, Cuba and the other West Indies. The trip wan undertaken for the united Ger man sugar Interests, the object of Dr. Pasrhe being to study thoroughly what prospects cane sugar had in the re gions through which ho passed of com peting successfully with German bet sugar under the existing American tar iff. In the course of an Interview to day he expressed the opinion that Ger man sugar would be driven out of the United States market within throe years unless the United States grants hetter trri9 thin the present tariff. He will fully discuss the matter in the Reichstag, and will publish a Look or. the subject. Dr. I'asche, who says he greatly en joyed his visit in the western world, speaks enthusiastically of the "phe nomenal prosperity everywhere ap parent in the United States." He be lieves a way will be found to effect a commercial treaty with the Un'ted States which will be beneficial to both countries. It is asserted in ofli cial quarters that the new tax rate on accumulated capital in Prussia shows an increase of five milliards. A PASTEUR TRIUMPH. A Way Found to Check the Decay of Organs. NEW YORK, Dec. 2 I. A Sun s spe cial from London says: A Paris cor respondent of the- Morning Post de scribes one of the greatest discoveries of modern science, which has just been made at the Pasteur Institute. It sas that Professor MetchnikoiT was en gaged in seeking accurate doses of a series of lymphs, each of which will re juvenate a particular organ of the hu man body. Metchnikoff's experiments show that the explanation of senile atrophy has hitherto been erroneous. The theory was that certain blood cells devoured others, and vital functions began to weaken. Organic: poisons thrown off energetically in youth were believed to remain in the system in old age, or at least to be less energetically ejected. These poisoned the finer cells, without acting on those of the con junctive tissues: the noble cells died or became the pre of the other or plebeian cells, thus bringing atrophy to the organ where metamorphcsis oc curred. Metchnikoft" has proved conclusively that the noble cells are not dead in the organs atrophied by senility. The tov eieign remedy against anaemia having been discovered, an entire section of the Pasteur Institute is now working to find specific serums for each particu lar organ. If blood serum acts on the red glob ules of the liver, the serum must have a similar effect cn the evils of the liver, that of brain on brain, and so on. The experiments have demonstrated this: '"The specific kidney serum was found some days ago. The professor is now determining the exact close for medical purposes. The dirfc-oven' has now passed the period of mere labora tory experiments. The celebrated Dr. Vidal is now at work on human ser ums." DWIGIIT L. MOODY DEAD.
