tories In 1895, counting only those which
turn out not less than 1000 machines an
nually. and having a total production of
100000 cycles Of various grades. The cap

* estimated that the total capital invest
ed would amount 20 $i25,O0O,0OO.
The export OF American bicycles practi-

Mr.. Gibson explained that he was not
speaking from any interest in the colored
vote, for his district comprised but 1900
colored voters. and he came here with a

Mr., Gibson asserted, amid applause that
wherever the white people are in a ma
iority in the south the republicans were in
the majority, and that it was only by the
operation of peculiar election laws in black
communities that the democrats were able
to secure victories. If those voters were

this case-to unseat a democrat and there

House should respect and be bound by the
decision of the supreme court of that state
on that matter. To do otherwise would in

$4,000. The export value of English bicy-
cles for the first nine months of 1896
amounted TO $6,452.691; but the trade in

Rise in the Price of Bread.
Madrid, Feb. 3-The rioting, which took
place at Aranjuez, in New Castle, yester-
day. grew out of the action of the au-
thorities in exacting an octroi duty on

the price of bread. Details of the dis
turbances show that the mob handled the
mayor and members of the town council
very roughly, and that the disorder WIS
aitelled only after the arrival Of a strong
force of police from Madrid, twenty
eight miles away, which, together with
the civil guard, dispersed the mob and re-
stored order In tho fight which took
place thirty-two persons were wounded.

FLEET IS GROWING
Another Yacht for the
Home Squadron.
Neat and Handy Craft-Foreign
Buiit-OWned by
TracyS.

T. E. Tracy and sons Of the gents
furnishing store on Fort street, are
the owners of the yacht, brought down
from Seattle by Captain Jamison of
the lumber schooner Spokane which
left this port on Saturday. The craft
is a fine one and when the changes
and repairs proposed are made, she
will undoubtedly be one of the pretti-
est yacht in the harbor.
The yacht was built in Seattle some
IS months ago by Johnson, a well
known boatbuilder of that place and
was ordered by private parties for the
particular purpose Of hunting. she
was primarily built for steam launch
but the owners changed their minds
and the result was yacht.
She is 25 feet in length over all; 23
feet water line; feet inches beam
and has a straight stem. The Tracys
intend to have a lead keel put on the
yacht; also to cut the cabin in two
and lower the remaining part about G
inches. thus increasing the size of the
cockpit.
The yacht is to be used entirely as
a pleasure boat. There are no designs
on the remainder of the yachts in the
harbor. She will fly the Healani Yacht
and Boat Club flag and will be anchor
ed near the club house of that organi-
zation.
A spin in her was taken by Mr.. Cliff
ton Tracy and others on Sunday. She
behaved splendidly, throwing off seas
as if they were nothing whatever.

There is some talk about uptown sites
but there is little foundation for the
rumors. A report is being circulated
that a prominent site is to be offered on
easy payments but the ordinance ex-
pressly says that the site shall be do
mated.
There is also a scheme to have a site
in the Richie tract donated but this is
as far from the hotels as the city park
and has many drawbacks besides.
The thing to do is to quit talking about
sites for the desultOTy discussion along
that line may defeat the auditorium
project entirely.
