A. p. Jones, brother of loan Jones,
who resides at 332 Garfield avenue, a
former resident of this city, who was
engaged as a miner in the Hampton in
1865 is making a name for himself in
Mexico. The following from the Two
Republico. published in the city of
Mexico. will be Of interest to many OF
the older residents of West Scranton:
w. l.. Crawford, representative of a
syndicate Of Chicago capitalists VINO
are interested in a large tract of land
in the TuXpan valley, arrived in the
city from that place a few days ago
on business trip. In by-gone days he
was a newspaper man, serving four
teen years in various capacities on the
leading San Francisco dailies.
I'VE have a gentleman down at Tux
pan whose good work deserves to be
better known than it is" said he yes
terday. II refer to Mr.. A. B. Jones,
the United States consul. He was the
first American consul to make report
on the conditions existing in that part
of Mexico, and during his short term
of ofiice-about year, | belieVe-he
has done more for the good of the
United States and its citizens living in
that region than all the other consuls
from the United States that TuXpan
ever had. He is a dligent student and
goes to the bottom of every subject
that he takes up. He has learned all
about the different methods of curing
vanilla and has taken the greatest in
terest in everything pertaining to the
development of the country. His re-
ports to the government at Washing
ton are carefully written and show n
thorough knowledge of the subjects
treated. Every little proposition of any
sort receives his attention and his aid
to the American residents has been in
valuable. This is something that the
Americans appreciate, as it has never
been done before Whatever Mr.. Jones
asks of the authorities is always grant
ed and in important business matters
he is consulted by the merchants at
TuXpan. 1t is a pity that he is where
there are so few opportunities to show
his true worth. In the past American
ConSuls have not done their duty as
well as those of other foreign countries.
and in a case where q man shows such
unusual ability i'm that line of work
think he deserves advancement" -"

The case was disposed OF by the de-
fcndant taking pledge to remain a

In connection with the raising of the
fund it has been suggested that the
