WINTER RESORT.
Gen. Robert Z. Kennedy, of the insular
Commission. Makes Report.
Not One-Fourth OF the Island Is Under Gut
tivation Opportunities for stock Rails
ing Is Superior to Almost Any Part
of the United states

WAsHiNGToN, May Sowing TO the
large number of inquiries that have
been received by the mem bers OF the
insular commission since their recent
return from Porto Rico. Gen. Robert
Il. Kennedy has prepared statement
as TO resources and conditions in Porto
Rico which he thinks will cover the
points upon which the greatest inter
est has been manifested.
Concerning the people themselves
Gen. Kennedy says:
There can scarcely be found upon
the globe more hospitable and warm
hearted people than those of Porto
Rico. They are in full sympathy with
American institutions. There is a
great deal OF poverty in the island, as
1t is understood in the United States.
structed huts, have few clothes and
still less OF ready money, but owing &c
the bounty OF nature around then
they can live with little WORK and few
worldly goods and still not suffer from
either cold or hunger. The stories of
starvation upon the island are fabrica-
tons
While the richer classes live well in
beautifully appointed homes and have
been for the most part educated
abroad SO that they speak English, the
per cent. of illiteracy among the poorer
classes is very high, reaching 90 per
cent, but this is largely due 20 the
! fact that there are no schools worth
the name outside of the largest towns
or indeed one might say in the whole
island.
AS to agricultural opportunities, ]
should say tha6 not one-fourth of the
lands in the islands are now under cul-
tivation, and thousands of acres vet
remain to be given over TO husbandrv.
Lands are held at a good price owing
to the promise of an influx of people
from the United States. Still there is
opportunity for many thousands OF
persons who really wish to engage in
agriculture on the islands.
That there are great opportunitie,
in Porto Rico is unquestianable. To
young men desiring to seek permanent
|
energy and enterprise, Porto Rico of
fers great inducements. But / would
discourage the simple adventurer, who
expects TO reap quick and unearned
reward.
Sugar and coffee both require a larg,
outlay in lands, material and improve
ments. The promise OF both of these
however, is unequaled anywhere els,
in the world. An old coffee planter
from Java, who has just bought n
plan tation, assured that the
climate and conditions were as favor
able as he had ever seen. Tropical
fruits OF all sorts grow readily and are
Of the finest quality. / know of no
kIHee winch offers greater induce.

LOCAL GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
Trade Active and Prices Steady and
Unchanged.

A visit to the different markets yesterday
failed to discover any new features OF impor-
lance. All classes of merchants seem very busy
and confident that December will be the best
business month in the year. as the demand for
nearly all lines Of goods is excellent. Wholesale
merchants are not compelled to cut prices to sell
goods as retailers unwilling to assume the
risk of waiting for lower prices. Yesterday there
was not a change calling for special mention.
The local grain market Is more active than
ten days ago. On Western lines a good deal OF
corn is coming in Still. to say that the receipts
are large would not be true many farmers
are holding back their grain in anticipation Of
