A BIG CUT MADE
Jurors Reduce $4,000
Claims to $40.
Portuguese Boys vindicated-Th.y
Had Been Arrested BY Mistskc.
Before Judge Stanley.

4 suit for 10000 damages was on
before Judge Stanley few days ago.
1t was the outcome of the arrest of a
number of Portuguese boys on the
charge of disturbing the quiet Of the
night. An old gentleman of the same
nationality swore to the complaint.
When the hearing came up before
Judge Wilcox, all but two of the boys
were reprimanded. The two were dis.
charged without the reprimand.
After time it occurred to these two
that their feelings had been lacerated
and their regulations torn into shreds
by the arrest. They considered that
so, 900 would be the only healing balm
And so they went to law. Upon the
witness stand the boys-they were
about 16 years old-in broken English
and heated Portuguese told of their
sufferings caused by the arrest. The
jury retired for deliberation. When
they came back the boys faces bright
ened. In their Imagination they fing-
cred the 10000. I'VE. the jury. find

!" D"ss~y -Ns"es
The baseball game last Saturday be-

and Battery X was won by the former
by a score of % to II. The grounds
were better than was expected. The
rain in the morning and early after
noon had made postponement prob
able.
The game was devoid of startling
features. Errors on both sides were
numerous and were in great measure
due to lack of practice. The form OF
the college boys was far inferior to
that which they displayed in the
championship series with PunahOu.

that the score was so large ond one

Mr.. Tenn' Making the Purchase q
In st. louis-Crusher to Be Plac.
ed Ahead OF the Roller Sets.

L. ID. Tenney, secretary of the Eva
plantation, while in the States at his
time, will make some impur an; pur-
chases for the mill of Lhe ycil-kLcvn
cane estate. At one .iins ii was pro-
posed to secure an entirely new re-
duction plant, this in view of tn, in
creased acreage and tn, heavier no.
duction of cane as a result OF progress
in methods of cultivation. IL had been
estimated that the crop from he pres
cnt campaign would be 2O.GOV tors
Some Of the employees of the estate de-
clare that the output will not be less
than $4,000 tons, and for The next
campaign II will be fully 1000 tons
more. II Is the desire of the ~ mage
ment to be in an equipment position
to begin grinding at an ontional or
chosen time, instead Of OH W about a
stated date. Experience, even in the
present campaign, has proved that n
delay in the beginning of cane reduc-
ton, SO far as certain fields were con
cerned, would have been quite proit-
able.
At recent meeting the directors
thoroughly canvassed the situation
and deliberated on the faces presented
in the report of Manager Rentun and
the statements of Mr.. Tenney. he sec
rotary and plantation expert. IL
was voted finally to increase the ca.
pacity of the plant now within the
mill buildings by supplemental ma
chinery. The sum of $l20,000 was pp-
propriated for this purpose. aad the
agents were authorized to do the buy
ing decided upon. Thus cane abort
the mission OF Mr.. Tenney to the
States. The secretary Went to ST.
Louis, where are the works of the Full
ton Iron Works Company, builders CT
the Eva nine-roller mill. The new
plans call for a crusher to be placed
ahead of the roller sets, for n new
quadruple effect, and for either Il very
large vacuum pan, or two pans of
medium or economical size. The
crusher. Is a new device of The Fulton
people, and has been highly recon-
mended by practical plantation rien.
Quite a variety of crushers ale in use
In the Islands.
The Eva mill production now is not
above 100 tons of sugar day. With
the installation of the crusher and the
new effect and vacuum pans II is fig
ured that the output will be hot less
than the handsome average Of $50 tons
a day. Those fondest Of Eva are con.
fident that with the expansion of the
great estate 1t will be necessary for the
second Of third coming campaign TO
have a new mill. When the present
sets of rollers were placed 1t was the
general opinion that their capacity
would not be taxed for many years.
But Eva has grown in a name" most
satisfactory to all interested. The
cane yields have been increasing right
along, and are surprisingly uniform in
sugar value.
The movement TO divide the Eva
stock into shares of the par value sof
$50 each, instead of 800. is progress
ing. Consent to such n change has
been given by the Government. One

PARIS, Feb. 2L-The demonstrations
have entirely ceased, perhaps only IN.
til after the funeral of M. Faure, but
the aspect is altogether more hopeful.
and President Loubet's seat seems per
manent. He is credited with the
declaration that he will resist strongly
any attempt at disturbances and
has reaffirmed his intention to
retain the Dupuy cabinet. a step which
tends to remove the suspicion that he
is Dreyfusard. During the month OF
mourning he will not attend any pub
lie ceremony. He has followed the Gus
tom of giving holiday remission O.!
punishments to the army and navy and
has made large donations to the poor
in Paris, and Montelimar, his native
town.
