Key West, June li.-C. F. Ajeyado.
who for u year swas a resident Of San
Juan Porto Rico, Is thoroughly in &C.
cord with the United States taking Por
to Rico at once. He said.
IAN expedition can land where il
pleases In Porto Rico, except in the
neighborhood Of San Juan. The best
harbor Of Porto Rico is Guanica, west
Of Police aud south Of San Juan, from
which the latter place is distance Of IS
hours carriage ride.
The roads between Guanica aud san
Juan as indeed is everywhere in Porto
hico' arr excellent, and supplies could
be had from the island rapidly, but I
would not advise exposing the men to
the tropical sun on long marches. This
In spite OF the fact that the climate Of
Porto Rico is the healthiest in the world
The rainy season does not begin until
August, and is Of short duration. Vel.
low fever Is almost unknown. United
States troops, however, are not used to
hot weather and would wilt under IT,
San Juan is where the troops should
DO landed. The American fleet should
finish the work Sampson started last
month and batter down Moro and the
fort Of San Carlos. The forts are not at
all impregnable aud can be- destroyed at
some expense, and Judging from other
bombardments, without loss OF life.
Then troops can BE- landed to defeat the
Spanish soldiers and take possession Of
the city. The occupation Of san Juan
would end the war In Porto Rico for the
Spaniards could not make stand any.
where else.
"As the inhabitants OF Porto Rico are
thoroughly disadocted, American troops
would not be required to subdue the
country people generally would wei.

"The soldiers could obtain good water
In all parts Of the island and there Is no
swamp land a. in Cuba. The cheapest
quickest, and most humane way Of con.
quering Porto Rico is by using big
guns.

WORTHY OF THOUGHT.
DR.. LAine Looks at the Invasion Of
Cuba In Scientific Light.

DR.. LAlns Lacks at the Invasion Of
Cuba In a Scientific Light.
New York, June 1.-THE Medical
News in It's issue Of today will pub.
lish a discussion Of the adyisability OF a
summer campaign in Cuba written by
DR.. d. +. Laine Of Philadelphia. who Is
Cuban.American, in which he says in
part:
"The unpreparedness Of the military
branch Of the government has become
80 apparent, and from all accounts the
necessity Of a much larger body Of
troops TO invade the island so evident,
that | can well understand the hesita.
ton on the part Of the Washington al.
thorities TO land troops at this season Of
year around Havana and Matanzas. In
fact am convinced that unless Havana
in the meanwhile capitulates from lack
Of food, no troops will Ice landed in that
province before the month OF October or
November. Around Santiago the con.
ditions are different. The country all
about is billy and much more healthful,
and by utilizing the several thousand
insurgents In the ueighborhood for the
purpose Of garrisoning the city after lis
capitulation, the American troops could
be safely enoamped all summer under
decidedly more advantageous conditions
than at Chickamauga or Tampa.
From the point Of view Of Cuban,
this pacific blockade, especially If kent
up all summer, means the practical ex.
termination Of all the people in these
three protinces-Pinar del Rio, Havana
and Matanzas, and a. this war, we are
told, was undertaken for the very pur.
pose Of saving these people why should
American troops not b. Immediately
landed on the island even II they do run
the risk Of a high death rate from eli.
matte conditions, etc?
"On the other hand, as Americans, we
are justified in reasoning this matter
We are certainly prepared for such an
undertaking. Our soldiers are mostly
men who were only yesterday clerks
aud mill hands, are not even supplied
with one of the most essential and vital
things for a summer campaign In the
tropics, and that Is suitable clothing.
In such an undertaking we know that
climate does not influence mortality ~
much a. deficient preparation and lack
Of organization therefore, let us take
into consideration the lives OF 10000 or
10000 Americans ~ against the subordi.
mates who perhaps are already beyond
human aid This pacific blockade will
certainly force Havana 10 captulate
long before October, aud by that time
We shall have thoroughly trained aud
properly equipped body Of troops"

Washington, June ll.-Shortly after
I O'Clock yesterday afternoon the con-
ference report on the war revenue bill
was agreed 10 by vote Of 81 to % by
the senate after a discussion lasting four
hours The debate upon the measure
was without special incident and was
entirely devoid Of acrimony. II was a
foregone conclusion that the report

ton Of interest involved was how soon
n vote could be reached.
The debate indicated generally that
the bill as agreed upon by the couferces
was reasonably satisfactory to every
body, except as to the bond provision.
The votes cast against the adoption Of
the report reflected the opinions Of those
senators who are opposed to any increase
In the interest bearing debt OF the coun.
try
Every Republican voted for the meas.
urc and their votes were supplemented
by those Of eight Democrats, one silver
Republican and one independent. The
Democrats who voted for the adoption

How to Make Crane .JelIx.

The most satisfactory way to make
grape jelly is to put the grapes in q
granite kettle with one-half cup of wa.
ter for each four quarts, boil until soft,
strain through jelly bag, pressing
through all that will come, boil &c
minutes, add as much sugar as juice
and boil ten minutes. This is very dark
and rich and takes the place Of grape
jam without the addition Of the useless
seeds and skins. To make very nice
grape jelly put the grapes in a jar,
place it in kettle Of boiling water,
boil until soft, put in jelly bag, let
drain, but do not press Add an equal
quantity of sugar and boil ten minutes.
What remains in the jelly bag may be
made into sauce by the addition Of wa.
ter and sugar and boiling few minutes.
