Sixty Thousand Dollars for Port
uemdO's Mu Ar.
In lS47 Don Juan Francisco Portuen
do, q native Of Cuba, came to Philadel
phia and about twenty years ago took
out naturalization papers. Subse-
quently he returned to Cuba to look
after his affairs, being the owner Of an
immense sugar plantation there. From
some cause he was classed among those
suspected Of treason toward the Spanish
Government, and shot to death, with
out trial, in 1870. The umpire for the
American aud Spanish Joint Claims
Commission has just decided that sixty
thousand dollars must be paid to the
murdered mans son, Jose Antonio
PortueDdo, also a resident of Philadsl-
phia, as an award of damages for the
barbarous and unwarranted act. The
Portuendo family are numerous in
Philadelphia, all of them being engaged
largely In. the segar business, one Of
them, Juan, owning some Of the best
stands In the business quarter of the
rty. The claimant expects to receive
The cash within short time, as Secre-
laTy Evarts Is in Communication with
he representatives of the Spanish
Government relative to the matter.
