MEMORIAL TO PRESIDENT.
Porto Rico Commissioners Present
Another Petition

Washington, May 7-Senores julio
Henna and Mankel Zenogandia, COM
missioners from Porto Rico to the Unit
ed States, have presented a second me
mortal to the president reiterating the
prayers of their first petition. They
ask for the following:
"First-Cessation of military govern
ment and the establishment of civil
rule in the island.
"Second-The establishment of abso-
lutte free trade between Porto Rico and
the United States.
'Third-The reduction Of American
troops and the enlistment of Porto Ri
cans.
"Fourth-The right of American citi-
zens in the island"
On the subject of military control.
the commissioners make the point that
"the subject of reforming the Porto
Rican system does not properly belong
to the army officers who now control
Porto Rico, or to the war department.
but to the Porto Rican people them
selves"
In contending for free trade relations
with the United States. they assert,
economically speaking. the people were
better off under Spanish rule than IN
der the present military control by the
United States. and add:
THAT Porto Rico has done nothing
to deserve to be forbidden admission to
the American markets or to be starved
to death through high duties under The
tariff promulgated by the war depart
ment.'
They also assert that:
Neither Cuba nor Porto Rico will
ever be able to make a step in the
road of true progress and happiness as
long as customs house stands upon
their SOIL

APPEALS TO THE BISHOP.
Catholic Church Asked to Help Set
tie Buffalo Strike.

Buffalo, n. Y, May president
Johnson of the state board of mediation
and arbitration; II. B. Goulder of
Cleveland, attorney for the Lake Car
riers' association, and Mr.. Douglass,
representing the Western Elevator as
ISOLATION, called on Bishop Quigly of
the Catholic diocese of Buffalo today
and asked him TO endeavor to induce
the rain-shovelers to accept the propo-
sition made by Contractor Connors.
Nearly all of the grain-shovelers are
Irishmen and attend the Catholic
church. 1t is thought, therefore, that a
suggestion coming from the bishop
would carry with it great weight. The
result of the conference could not be
aScertained.
The monthly men at the elevators
held a big meeting this afternoon and
adopted resolutions expressing Sympa-
thy with the cause of the grain-shovel-
ers and unanimously voted that when
ever there are any signs of growing
strength on the part of Contractor Con-
nors that strike will be declared.
Connors is beginning to import men
from other cities to take the places of
the striking grain-shovelers. OF Up
men started from New York City Sat
urday night all but twenty-nine de-
serted.
When the train reached Buffalo with
these a delegation of strikers appeared
at the depot and enticed all but fifteen
of the newcomers away. The fifteen
who stuck were taken to the Marone
elevator in a bus and guarded by two
patrol wagons full of policemen. No
attempt was made to modest them.
Tonight delegation of grain-shove!-
ers waited on the city officials for the
purpose of having the New Workers
sent home at the expense of the city.
They claim that the situation here was
misrepresented to them.
Late tonight it was given out that
the grain shovelers will present an ul-
tiInatum to the Lake Carriers associa-
ton. The substance of the utimatum
will be that if the strike is not ended
this week, the 'longshoremen all along
the chain of lakes will be ordered out,
and that the entire lake traffic will be
tied up, and that for every week here
after that Mr.. Connors holds the con-
tract, the rain-shovelers' union will
add so cents to the contract price. The
union is willing now to take the con-
tract for 81 fiat per thousand bushels.
