The War is virtually ended, but the

the islands will be largely formed OF
Afro Americans and they should be Of

measure. They have proven them
selves good privates and will doubtless

The foreign trade of Puerto Rico is
important and growing, even under pres

more than thirty-six and half million
dollars. This was a gain over the preced-

crease was exceptional. but comparing It
with the figures of 1892. for instance. the
gain is more than three millions. The ex.
ports in 1896 were valued at SIS $40, 900,
and the imports at SIS, $4,000. The for
