Were $40 Estates When

The purchases being made for Cuba |
conclusively show that merchants on
the island are eager to receive their
merchandise as soon after the first of
the wear as the circumstances will per-
nit. This applies principally to the
importers of manufactured effects.
During the week, local merchants say
purchases involving many thousands
of dollars will be made in manufactured
iron. hardware, naval stores, some ma
chinery and railway equipment. In the
last mentioned line already some ex-
tensive purchases have been made. A
manufacturing concern in the Have
meyer building will have in ten days
or so about $50 cars ready TO ship to
Havana. Some machinery is also
awaiting shipment and if it were not
on account of the season being some
what late the amount of purchases in
this line would be more extensive.
Prior TO the war some $40 sugar es-
| tates were in operation in Cuba, with
an approximate output of 1,3O0,0O0
tons. 1t has been calculated that no
sugar houses were destroyed during
the instruction. We're these sugar
houses to be repaired each would re-
uuire from $4,000 to $4,000. All re-
pairs necessary could not be made with
$50. 900, 900. After a stable government
is given to Cuba, able to secure life and
property, it can be seen that in this
branch of trade alone there are pros
poets for American Engineers, con-
tractors and manufacturers. Many OF
the buildings used by the factories
that were destroyed were built of tim
) Der: these will no doubt be replaced
by iron and steel structures. Then, as
many of the large pieces of machinery
have not been affected by the destruc-
ton of the buildings, the repairs vii
consist in many instances of minol
pieces and the connection of pipes, etc
In the electrical line the field will bt
quite extensive among the sugar eS
tates, as in the major part of them al
electrical fittings were destroyed. o

Business, both building and trans

AGAINST ALL REASON.
Weight OF All Argument Opposed SIez
Canal.

Weight of All Argument Opposed Suez
Canal.
It was shown that from an engineer
ing point of view the Suez canal was
impossible, while from a commercial
point of view it was proved, up to the
hilt. that, even if the canal could be
made, it would, as far as traffic went,
be a failure as melancholy to the phil
anthropist as it would be disastrous
TO the investor.
The great authorities who spoke
with so much assurance, are all dead,
and it is we'll for their comfort that
they are.
In 1869 traffic between the west and
the east via the Cape of Good Hope
was ABOUT 100000 tons. In 1897 the
traffic through the Suez canal was
1898. 9S1 tons, while that round the
Cane of Good Hope was at least $780,
600 tons.
In other words, one direct result OF
the construction OF the Suez canal has
been that in twenty-eight years the
! commerce of the world has been in
creased 100000 tons annually.
| 1t is hardly necessary to add tha'
the return to the investor who riskeo
his money in what seemed TO so many
TO be a hare-brained project has been
to say the least of it, Of fairly saus
factory character.

and for n time exciting conversation
took place Mt dancing party recently

Gentleman. II am thankful, very
much. A good character you need for
to dance with me-"
Young lady was just preparing to faint
or scream or do something to protest
against the seeming presumption Of the
youth when a gentleman, a fluent Ger
man linquist,in passing the couple was
called upon by the young lady and told
that she has been insulted. To him the
first gentleman explained in the
tongue of the Fatherland that he was
a very poor dancer and unless the
young lady had very good DISPOSE
TON he would rather not attempt to
dance with her. The explanation salts
fed the young lady.
