TO REACH CUBA AND PORTO RICO
Steamers Loaded to Their Limit
with Passengers and Freight

Steamers Loaded to Their Limit
with Passengers and Freight.
Vessels of the New York and Porto Rico
Steamship Company sail once a week from
New York alternately for Ponce and San
Juan. The fast steamers make the voy.
age in four and half 90 five days; the
slowest require eight days.
If one is In a hurry one may go from
New York to Havana, travelling by rail
from New York to Miami, Fla, thence by
| the steamers of the Florida East Coast
Steamship Company. A popular route is
by rail to Tampa, Fla, thence by tho
steamers of the Plant Steamship Com
pany
All Steamers Crowded.
All Of these lines are now doing the
heaviest business in their history. Every
steamer leaving New York is loaded to
| the limit Of her capacity with mlscelane-
| Gus freight, while cabin accommodations
are taxed to the utmost to provide for
passengers. This Is particularly true or
the Porto Rico line, for there is but one
line to Porto Rico carrying both freight
and passengers.
Previous so the war with Spain the pas.
senger traffic with Porto Rico was very
| light. so that accommodations on tho
| steamers in that trade were limited. Now
every steamer carries rs to 80 passengers,
which is all that can be cared for. There
Is no demand for Storage accommoda-
| tons 20 Porto Rico. The majority of the
passengers are going to look for business
opportunities. Some are going to buy or
| anges, which are OF inferior quality, but
much cheaper than other varieties which
reach American markets. Buyers also
seek pineapples. bananas, coffee and
sugar. Representatives Of clothing and
dry good houses have been doing a profit
able business in the island. Agents for
breweries also have found orders numer-
Gus and large.
Six men went to San Juan on the last
steamer to operate a merry-go-round. The
most successful business venture yet UNI
dertaken was that OF a man who went
over soon after the war ended to buy
old iron He is said to have taken large
sum-alleged 10 have been $3.50 ,000-with
him and 90 have made heavy purchases,
including quantity of old cannon. A
| fiourishing business in old Iron has also
| been done In Cuba. Some Of Roosevelt
Rough Riders have started prosperous
| bakery in San Juan.

rome learned the lesson of needed pro-
teetion which incorporation secures
only after repeated conflagrations
which each time destroyed a large por-
tiOn of the town. There is no town in
Arizona which needs to be incorporated
as badly MS Globe does, and it is hoped
it will not have to pass through the
costly experiences which Jerome ex-
perienced before the property owners
here realize the value of incorporation.

The position Of copper continues
strong. with an advance in price re-
ported in London. Consumption is
large both in the United States and in
Europe, while no considerable increase
of production is promised, the large
producers having about reached their
limit of output. The only bear argn.
ment used is that the continued high
price of copper will result in the sub.
stitution of other metals for many pur-
poses, but the extent to which tins may
occur is limited and is not likely to
prove All important factor in its effect
upon copper consumption. Aluminium
holds first place as a substitute for cop.
per in electrical work. but its extended
use is not imminent, as the production
OF aluminium in the United States last
year WAS only 5000, 900 pounds, which
precludes its substitution for copper to
any great extent. In view of the rapid
adoption of electrical power for both
traction and industrial purposes, the
consumption of copper will in all prob
ability keep pace with any increase of
production likely to occur, at least for
some time to come.

The war department, evidently, Is
convinced that Gen. Otis Is not compe-
tent to run the whole shooting match
in l.uzon, and has devised plan to re-
lieve him of much of the responsibility
of the campaign without retiring him
from the command The island is to
be divided into four military depart
ments, each to be in charge of general
with an adequate force under his com
msnd, and who is to be held response
bile for the results in his department
Gen Otis will assume charge of the
department at Manila, and have super
visory command of the entire army.
zen. I.awton and Gen. Macarthur will
each have charge of department, and
probably Gen. Wheaton, and Gems.
Wheeler or Bates will direct the cam
paign in the other two departments.
1t is expected that by November ! the
aggregate fighting forces in the Philip
pines will number about $4,000, and
together with the medical officers and
hospital corps, over $4,000.

Late reports from Porto Rico con.
firm the early estimates of the great loss
of life and destruction of property re-
snltiDg from the hurricane which swept
over the island on August :. 1t was
most severe Mt Ponce, where five hun
dred persons lost their lives and half
million dollars of property WAS de-
stroyed. The total loss of life on the
island probably exceeds one thousand
and many thousands of the natives are
left homeless and destitute. Appeals
for aid to the sufferers have been re-
csived at Washington. The last pre-
vions hurricane as severe as this was in
1876 when owing to the loss of houses
and crops famine ensued

THE MINERAL INDUSTRY.

The statistics of mineral production
IN the United States ior the year 1898
are presented very completely in 1.-The
Mineral Industry, Vol. VII, which is
published by the Scientific Publishing
Co. The production tables show that
the year 1898 was very prosperous
one for the mineral industry, the pro-
duction in nearly all the important sub
stances being the greatest ever 'e-
corded.
The total value of the mineral pro-
duction of the United States in lS9S
was 500, SIG, $50 against S64S, SO4, 800
in 1897. OF the production IN 1898,
x3l4, 255. go was the value Of metals
against $a72, ITS, aa2 IN the previous
year, and Sl33, 659.l4l of ores and
minerals against S407, ,9l3.ol2 in 1897.
The domestic production of gold in
1898 was 3, l4S. 649 troy ounces $50,
0S2, 430) against 2,S64,57 ounces
$50, ol0. 1867 in 1897. The production
of silver was IS, 763, I27 ounces, against
56, 457, 292 in the previous year. The
largeet part of the increase of gold
came from Colorado, while Arizona,
Idaho. Montana, South Dakota and
Utah made important increases. Ari-
zona, Colorado and Utah made IN
creased outputs of silver, while in
Montana there was large falling of
and IN Utah small one. Besides the
production above reported, l,0G5, 552
ounces of gold and 30, 7Sl, 900 ounces
silver were smelted in the United
States from imported ores. The aver.
age value of silver in 1898 WAS 80 cents
per ounce, against 60. cents in
1897.
The production of copper increased
from 223, ,Sa5 long tons in 1897 to 239,
~ IN lS3S. The increase occurred chlel'
ly in Arizona and Michigan, Montsns
showing decrease, owing chiefly to the
smaller output of the Anaconda mine
Arizona shows by far the largest gain,
having produced 10, 1913, SCI pounds.
The statistics MS regards Arizona
production are especially gratifying,
her proportionate gain IN output oI
copper, gold and silver being larger
than that OF any other political division
OF the United States. In fact mining
in this territory made II noteworthy
gain, last year, and the present year
will witness still greater advance.

The administration supporters are
disingenuons in laying the blame for
the failure of General Otis to conquer
the Filipinos upon congress. The most
specious plea is that made by Adiutant
General Corbin, who doubtless feels
called upon to defend the conduct o!
the war, Ms he, NIX the chief advisor of
the president, must bear share of the
responsibility While congress did re-
fuse to increase the regular army to the
full size proposed by the president, the
administration was not in the least
hsmpered by its action in the military
operations in Luzon. Congress made
provision for an ample volunteer army,
of which the administration did not
avail itself That Gen. Otis did not
call for more troops disposes Of the
charge that congress is to blame for the
prolongation of the war. Otis contin.
ued for months to misrepresent the
state of affairs in Luzon, and repeated
y stated in his dispatches that he had
II sufficient force at his command to
aubdue the Filipinos, and continued to
predict early and complete victory.
Had the measures now being taken by
the war department for the prosecution
Of the war in Luzon. been inaugu.
rated three months earlier, a far great
er measure of success might have been
attained The responsibility for failure
lies entirely with Otis and the admins

Hats for Early Spring.

The selection OF appropriate millin-
cry for the early spring months Is de-
cidedly difficult. All interest has been
lost in even the late winter hats, and,
beside, they are apt to appear little
passee, as fashions, more than any
thing else, are liable to sudden changes
with or even without the slightest rea-
son. Then, again, there is a natural
hesitancy to rush in the light sum-
merry creations on these fresh cool
days; so the subject now to be con-
sidered is the unobtrusive but dainty
demi-saison hats that are shown in
beautiful profusion. A becoming hat
or bonnet certainly adds more to a
woman's appearance than any other
single article of outdoor apparel, and
consequently should be selected with
great care as to shape, color and gen.
eral fitness.
Hats this season show a marked ten
dency to return to the becoming down
ward cant of last summer, and thus
afford a welcome shade to the eyes
during the bright spring days. The
hats. when tilted forward, are more
easily worn by the vast majority than
the flaring fly-away effects so much in
vogue during the winter. Toques in
fibre cloth and cunningly woven straws
will be extensively worn with both
morning and afternoon toilets, while
tulle hats are chosen for theater and
reception wear.
The tulle hat Is deserving of much
consideration; 1t IA unusually artistic.
and has a fluffy graceful effect that can
be obtained in no other material. One
beautiful tulle hat was fashioned with
a small round crown and turned-up
brim upon the turban style. the whole
being made of small Understandings
that induced a soft, rufIled appearance.
at the center Of the front, and through
it were thrust two ornaments with
enormous jet tops and amber pins.
which furnished all the decoration nee
essary. This seemingly simple hat re-
CURED twenty yards of tulle in its con-
slTucllOu anu seNSIdi udyS VI mOSl le-
dious labor. A small hat Of white tulle
was covered with jetted black net and
trimmed with long feather effects made
Of steel paillettes and caught upon the
hat to the left of the center with a
large cut-steel and Rhinestone buckle.
Dainty soft tones of tulle are selected
and embroidered with steel, gold or
silver or often brilliantly jeweled Pale
blue tulle sparkling with myriads Of
tiny Rhinestones was finished with two
soft white feathers artistically ar
ranged in front. and running up the
stem of the feathers were narrow black
velvet ribbons upon which were fas-
tened at regular intervals small Rhine
stone buckles.
