The word was not spoken with any tone
OF derision or disgust, II was simply the
repetition OF the lattcr part OF n question
which had been addressed to bluff Nor.
wegian sea captain who 10 in command
of ono of tho largest fruit steamers plying
between New Orleans and the Central
American ports.
"Ratsf Why, thcro arc niilions OF
thom," remarked the captain as he
thoughtfully took long pulls" ut his
pipe and the peculiar thing about them
Is that there seems TO be Just as many as
ever, In spite OF the fact that tho fruit
ships and also all tho other ships take many
away every trip. You may not bolicye II,
but reckon we must have aboard ,his
steamer many of the times she dawes New
Orleans 500 or 400 rnts and ON the return
trip there Is not one to DO seem"
But what do you suppose becomes Of
them all' Arc they drowned at seatn
NO, dont think so. l imagine they
leave the steamer when she touches Mt the
different Central American ports on her
voyage. Sometimes, though, we have but
n few of them aboard when wo leave port
and then we don't see much Of them.
Other times there's lots of them, especial
~ WI NWhif eoiih hiknt lntl run AL
over the ship and ovon are seen on the
rigging and sails. They come out OF the
hold TO get scraps from the stewards gal
lcry and got mighty troublesome"
Don't the steamers ever have any onts
aboard to keep them out of tho way ut
leastfn
"Oh, yes, We have cat or two general.
ly, but there are sometimes SO many rats
that they cannot do much toward keeping
them even below the decks"
During pause in the conversation tho
following computation was mado to show
tho captain the immense number Of rats
that were carried AWAY from this port
every year by the fruit steamers alone
providing his assertions were correct:
Considering that thoro nro 20 ships
engaged In the fruit trade, and that they
mako ON nm average 20 trips year, there
would bo n grand total of 400 departures
Of fruit steamers, md estimating that
each steamer carried away from 200 to
300 rats every trip they would decrease
the rat population Of tho city by at least
100, 900 during tho ~ months, this oalou-
lation being made In regard To tho 20
fruit ships alone II all tho other ehps
that come TO New Orleans during the yenr
carried away tho average number OF 200
rats trip, tho total exodus Of rats from
