Exploration OF the depths Of the Black
Sea during the last ten years has
brought to light unique condition.
Sir John Murray states that the great,
est depth found Is 1900 fathoms, and
that a fresh-water surface current
flows outward through the Bosporus
and the Dardanclles into the Mediter'
raneon. while a salt undercurrent IS
steadily flowing inward The density
Of the salt water Of this undercurrent
prevents vertical circulation. The great,

PORTO RICAhS FOR BRYAN
Islanders Send Delegate to Work
for the Nebraskan.
C. Clayton Hanna, of San juan. to
Jones-Bitferiy Disappointed With
American Rule - Suffering From
Lack of Money and Starvation.

BALTIMORE, Sept &C. Clayton Han
ma, of San Juan, Porto Rico, spent several
hours in Baltimore yesterday He left
the island on Wednesday Of last week and
is on his way to Chicago to offer his SER
vices to Chairman Jones, of the Demo-
cratic National Committee, to aid in the
election of Mr. Bryan.
Mr.. Hanna was. some years ago, princi-
pal of a public school at Towson He has
been in San Juan about year engaged in
educational work and while there has
carefully studied conditions.
81 shall offer to Chairman Jones my SER
vices during the campaign at the earnest
request of number of leading citizens OF
Porto Rico" said Mr.. Hanna. They are
anxious that the American people shall
know the true state of affairs on the ISL
and. When American occupation began
the islanders were pleased
They regarded this country as the
greatest in the world and had high hopes
of the future. They have been cruelty dis
appointed. for American rule has been a
devastating blight. The people there have
no hope for the future unless Mr. BRYAN
is elected President of the United States
The conditions in Porto Rico are Ger
lack of money. The Government has just
Withdrawn all the Spanish money and sub
stituted United States currency, but the
supply IS not equal to the demand. Only
about 81, 8GO,t00 is in circulation, when
under even moderate demands there
should be S6.000,000. The coffee industry,
the great business of the interior, is prac-
tically ruined because there is no market
for the crop. Spain and England, which
formerly took the coffee do not do so
now. and America, to which we turned for
new market, buys elsewhere. There will
be no crops of any kind until December
In the meantime the poorer classes are
starving and the landed proprietors are
not much better off.
The tariff imposed by Congress gave
the merchants an excuse for advancing
the price OF everything, and they have
done so. Tie new educational system
about which Republican orators have said
so much, is farce. Public offices, as a
rule, are in the hands of carpetbaggers y
who neither deserve nor win respect.
How do the Porto Ricans hope to be
benefited by the election of MIR. Bryan /? In
the first place, they expect an equitable
form OF Territorial government and some
arrangement by which a loan may be eff
1ected for the benefit of the island 1t is
undoubtedly The richest island in the
world in natural resources and it could
be made to teem with wealth. The plan
tiers have been accustomed, by mortgag-
ing their growing creps, to secure money
with which to work, harvest, and market
them.
Under American military orders the
foreclosure of mortgages is forbidden and
capitalists viii no longer loan money.

WILKESBARRE, Pa, Sept. 6.-Now
that the miners here have heard the ope-
rators' refusal TO grant their demands
and know that the United Mine Workers
Will order a strike. it is claimed they do
not feel as satisfied as their talk OF the
last week would indicate. While a ma
joTity viii obey the strike order, the men
at each colliery are asking what will the
others do. There is some distrust among
the men, fear that the strike will not
be general and that the men of one com
pany may remain at work while the 9TH
ers quit.
There is feeling that it would be wise
to wait and see how eagerly the strike
call is obeyed. This will result, it is ex-
pected, in a slow response to the order
and it may take several days to make the
strike general. Of the 10000 mine
workers in this region, it is said to be
probable not more than Is goo or % 600
will strike mex, Monday, which is the
date fixed, and the leaders fear that a
lack OF a general response will injure
their prospects of success
Men whose business keeps them In close
touch with the situation, place the limit
OF the strike at six weeks and many give
it less than a month and prophesy a de-
feat for the miners All the big companies
nave their yards well stocked and MANY
Of The individual operators have enough
coal on hand to fill their percentage of
the sales for nine months. This is the re-
suit OF the steady work for several months
past. during which the operators were
quietly preparing for the trouble Conse-
qGently the operators are in an excellent
condition 10 undergo a severe strike
The miners, however, are not prepared
for long siege. The union has compar-
atiVeiy little money in its treasury, and
the assistance it gets from other unions
will not be enough to keep the eco and
their families in food very long. It Is
claimed that they will get no assistance
from the merchants, who are bitterly op-
posed to the strike The merchants are
not ordering supplies this month and Will
give no credit They anticipate at least
two months of serious depression in bus
mess.

men are idle and their families are

Then We need intelligent and ample

chaos generally. The only laws are
those Of the old Spanish regime and
