SOLD AS SLAVES.
Men, Women and Children in Mica
rauga, are in a State of Servitude.

Managua,. Nicaragua, Jan. ?. A terri
Bile state of affairs prevails in the labor
market here and the system of selling
labor has resulted in reducing very large
numbers of men, women and children to
a state of slavery. Owners of coffee es-
tates recently held a meeting with the
object of influencing the government of
Nicaragua to establish in Cuba a labor
agency to induce Cuban labOrerS to mi
CRATE to Nicaragua
Men and women here are now endeavOr-
ing by every possible means, excepting
an armed revolution, to escape from the
servitude incident to the sale of their la
Dor, authorized by the constitution of
Nicaragua and enforced as vigorously as
possible by military power until the mon
ey for goods advanced to them, interest
thereon and heavy fines for delinquency
have been paid in full by labor at low
rates.
This years crop of coffee in Nicara-
qua is estimated at about 80 per cent of
a full crop The deficiency has been
caused by insufficient rains during the
year, The twigs. on which the coffee, crop
of 1897 is to be borne are so small and
short as not to be able to yield full crop
in many estates in Nicaragua next year.
A number of persons in Nicaragua, es-
pecialIy in the eastern portion, are max
ing preparations to cultivate sugar cane
instead of coffee, Is heretofore.

Expired Suddenly of Hemorrhage
Late Last Night.

Expired Suddenly of Hemorrhage
Late Last Night.
Edmund W. Holdsworth, Secretary
OF the Thee. H. Davies Co., Ltd, died
at his residence, Lunalilo street, near
Pensacola, few minutes before II
O'Clock last night of hemorrhage of the
lungs Mr. Holdsworth had been COM
planning of ill-health for some months
past, but his illness was at no time
considered to be of serious nature.
He made trip to England during the
early part of the year for change of
climate and to visit his father. He re-
turned about two months ago some
what improved, but. no means a well
man. On Friday his condition was
worse when he left the store at the
close of the day and he did not return.
Deceased was well known in mercan-
tile circles, having been associated
with the firm Of Theo. H. Davies & Co.
for many years, coming out from
England when a lad and working him
self up from junior clerk to more i'm
portant positions. He was for time
entrusted with the purchase of goods
for plantation stores controlled by the
firm. When the Canadian-Australian
Line was inaugurated and Theo. H.
Davies & Co. became the local agents.
Mr.. Holdsworth was given charge of
that branch of the business, acting as
well, in the capacity of chief correspon-
dence clerk.
Though reserved in manner Mr..
Holdsworth made many friends, and
always held their respect for his quiet,
gentlemanly manners. He was greatly
interested in art, and when the Re
public called for designs for series
of stamps for the Postal Department
he became competitor and was
awarded the prize. The stamps now
used in Hawaii were engraved from de-
signs furnished by him in the compe-
titi0n. He was domestic in his habits,
and his time, when not taken up at
his place of business, was spent with
his wife and little girl. He was mar
ried about II years ago to Miss Pur-
Wis of Kauai, and leaves, besides his
widow, little daughter about years
of age.
At the hour of going to press no ar
rangements had been made for the flu
neral, but it will probably take place
today.

you one at five. We have
bicycle lamps, nickel plated,
that burn just plain kerosene

any ever shown here. Lamps
for the student or reader,
with green shades for the
protection of the eve, are
capitally built and furnish an
abundance of light. Hang

piano lamps for the parlor,
are plentiful in our store and
the prices are below bed
