FACTS ON CUBA'S WEALTH.
The Bureau of Foreign Commerce
Gives Detailed Statistics of
General Interest.

In response to the demand for infor-
nation in regard to Cuba and Puerto
Rico the bureau of foreign commerce,
department of state, has issued bulle-
tin containing much interesting infor-
alton, drawn from consular reports
and other official data concerning the
geography, products, commerce, rail-
ways, debts, cables, etc, of these
islands. 1t includes also detailed de-
scriptions of all the large Cities.
1t is pointed out that if all the land
suitable to the growth of sugar cane
was devoted to that industry Cuba
might supply the entire western hemis-
phere with sugar. The island has al
ready produced in single year for ex-
port 100000 tons, and its capabilities
have been only in the experimental
stage. ,.
Although settled more than so years
before the United States, Cuba still has
100000 acres of primeval forests, in
Guiding mahogany, redwood, ebony and
many other valuable woods.
In report from Consul Hyatt the
richness of the mineral deposits about
Santiago de Cuba is pointed out. Amer
! lean companies with a combined capital
of over $5,000,0O0 now operate mines in
this vicinity and employ from 500 to
/ 400 men, shipping to the United States
from 10000 to $4,000 tons of iron ore per
month, most of it going to Bethlehem,
Steelton, Sparrows Point and Pitts
burgh. These iron ores are said to be
among the richest in the world.
Mr.. Hyatt believes the old copper
mines in the same vicinity, which used
to turn out 100000 worth of copper
ore annually for use in the United
| States, could be worked with profit.
The extent Of the tobacco and sugar in
dustries are given in detail, although
these have suffered seriously as a result
Of the last three years of warfare.
About $4,000 of the inhabitants are or
dinarily engaged in the cultivation of
tobacco. The Cuban debt is placed at
$235,0Oo,000, or about $979 per adult
male.
The description of Puerto Rico is es-
pecially interesting in the account of
San Juan harbor 1t states that the en-
trance to the harbor is one of difficulty
and danger, particularly when north
er is blowing. The 'boca," or entrance
| to the harbor, is a mass of seething,
foaming water, and presents an impos-
| ing spectacle. To see steamers OF from
16 to is feet draft enter through this
.seething "boca" is sight to be remem-
bered, as the great waves lift them up
and seem about to hurl them forward to
destruction.
San Juan is described as a perfect
specimen of a walled town, with moat
gates and battlements. The description
of the various cities both in Cuba and
Puerto Rico shows that yellow feve.

he followed her silently from the room.

long time in deep thought. Then
