COMMERCE WILL BOOM.
Porto Rico Merchants Will Enter
Commercial Field.

Correspondence of the Associated Press
San Juan, Porto Rico, April 25.-The
merchants, planters, farmers-all men
engaged in Porto Rican industries who
have been Withholding operations pend
ing congressional action, are now ready
to invade the commercial field and the
shiploads of sugar and tobacco will soon
be dispatched to the United States. 1t
is interesting to note, in this connection,
that the retail price of cigars will prob
ably 500 be raised, the retail dealers
claiming that this step will be necessary
on account of the large shipments to
the United States. Three steamers leav-
ing here within the next few lays will
carry over 5000 tons of sugar and about
l 500 bales of tobacco.

PREPARING FOR ADVANCE.
BOERS THREATEN BoSHOF-KIM-
BERLEv COMMUNICATION.
Large Part of Investing Force at Mafe-
king Has Been Withdrawn
To Check Boer Raids.

London May 8. 4:l0 a. m.-The i'm
mediate objective of Lord Roberts is
to establish a line OF British posts from
n frontier of the Free State to the
other at right angles with the rail-
way, thus preventing Boer raids south
ward. 1t is essential, therefore, that
the Beers should be expelled from the
rugged Thabanchu district and be
forced to retire to Lad brand. AS the
result of the desultory firing Monday
and Tuesday, the Beers were pushed
back a few miles but nothing definite
appears to have yet been attained. The
Beers continue to follow their harrass-
ing tactics. One well-horsed COM
mando. operating in the neighborhood
of Sannas Post, interferes with the
British conveys gong from Bloemfon-
TEN to Thabanchu. The enemy near
ly captured a convo Tuesday but they
We're driven back after a brisk fight.
Preparations for al advance continue
at Kimberley.
The British garrisons along the rail-
way toward Warrenton have been
strengthened and supplies are going
forward. A mounted force has gone to
Barley West in of the
Beers having occupied Nindsorton. A
thousand Beers threaten the commune
cations between BOOSn1 ana hlmDer-
ley.
Malala, chief of the Taungs, has in
formed the British that the Beers are
preparing to resist their attack at
P~hikowani, twenty miles north of War
rem.
A correspondent at Lourenzo Mar
quez, cabled Tuesday, that a large part
of the investing force at Mafeking has
been withdrawn. General Butler con-
tinues quiet. The Beers assert that
they are delaying an attack upon him
in the hope that all the horses of the
British will die of horse sickness.
The departure of the Boer delegates
from Holland to the United States and
what they have said of their rpo
and hopes draw British attention to
American views of the war. To-day's
Chronicle says: 1.-The men who count
in the United States are not likely to
accept the views which Messrs. Fisch-
er and Vessels intend to place before
them.'
